18、or languages”可知，事實上，我自出生以來就是傳統(tǒng)性別觀念的受害者，人們始終認為男性適合科學和數(shù)學，而女性適合藝術(shù)或語言。據(jù)此可以判斷，畫線部分意指“傳統(tǒng)性別觀念”，故C項正確。] 6．According to the author，which may be the benefit of learning science?

19、eality struck hard when I began attending job interviews and interviewers would say，‘It's great that you speak foreign languages，but what else do you do？’Nobody asked my friends who had studied science or technology this kind of questions”可知，盡管我會外語，但是用人單位還是想要科學技術(shù)類人才；結(jié)合第四段第一句“A survey recently showed

20、 that three of the best-paid jobs for women are in the technology sector”可知，最近的調(diào)查顯示，三份收入最高的女性的工作是在科技行業(yè)。據(jù)此可以判斷，作者認為學習科技能增加就業(yè)機會，故A項正確。] 7．How did the author feel for her major choice?

22、統(tǒng)性別觀念認為男性適合科學和數(shù)學，而女性則適合藝術(shù)或語言的影響，最終我選擇了學習文科。在求職過程中，我屢屢碰壁。如今，作為一個五歲女孩的母親，我希望她不受傳統(tǒng)性別觀念的影響，勇敢地選擇學習科學技術(shù)，改變世界。據(jù)此可以判斷，C項最適合作本文的標題。B項“好的科目，好的未來”表述太寬泛。] Ⅱ.完形填空 (2019·福州四校聯(lián)考)Back in 1959，when I was 13，I attended a school in Brooklyn.Because of the Sabbath on Friday，we had an early __1__ from school.Most of
