There once was a very honest shopkeeper whose business was to provide goods to the local people. He would open his shop at 8:00 a.m. after having his breakfast and at 1:00 p.m. he would go for lunch. In the evening at 8:30 p.m. he closed his shop to complete his daily routine.
However, to get time for lunch was really difficult because he didn’t have anybody to help him at that time. Therefore, it was his daily practice that whichever customer was shopping at 1:00 p.m. would be asked to oversee (看管) the shop until the shopkeeper returned from lunch.
One day, a group of four thieves planned to steal from his shop while he was gone for lunch. One of the thieves went at 1:00 p.m. to be the customer that would be asked to oversee the shop.
The thief, pretending to be a customer, went in at 1:00 p.m. and started buying several items. As planned, the shop-keeper asked the thief to sit on his chair for thirty minutes until he returned from lunch.
Then, the other three thieves quickly came and told the pretend customer to help, but something had changed within him and he knew deeply in his heart that if he was given responsibility for the shop, he should not perform any dishonest acts during that time. His friends did not agree. As the now honest man tried to stop them, they resisted and a fight started. And at the same time the shopkeeper returned and asked why there was a fighting. The now honest man explained the entire plan.
The shopkeeper had been searching for an honest man who could take ownership of the shop and run it. The shop-keeper felt that he had found the right man. 51. What is the problem for the shopkeeper?
A. Nobody could prepare lunch for him every day. B. He had nobody to keep the shop when he went for lunch. C. He was too busy to have lunch every day.
D. He couldn’t find a person to work at the shop. 52. Why did the thief go to the shop at 1:00 p.m.?
A. Because he thought he would be asked to keep the shop.
B. Because the shopkeeper invited him to lunch then. C. Because the shop was closed at that time.
D. Because he thought he could buy cheap things then.
53. When the shopkeeper returned from lunch, he found _______.
A. everything in his shop was stolen
B. the thief became the new owner of the shop C. there was a fighting in his shop
D. the thief helped his fellows steal things from his shop 54. From the passage, we can infer that _______.

As late as 1800, women's only place was in the home. The idea of women in the business world was unthinkable．Men were certain that no woman could do a good job outside her home．This was such a widely accepted idea that when the well-known Bronte sisters began writing books in 1864, they had to sign their books with men's names instead．
Teaching was the first profession (职业) open to women soon after 1800．But even that was not an easy profession for women to enter because most schools and colleges were open only to men．Oberlin College in Ohio was the first college in America to accept women． Hospital nursing became respectable work for women only after Nightingale became famous．Seeing that she was not only a nurse but also a rich and well-educated woman, people began to believe it was possible for women to nurse the sick and still be “ladies”．Miss Nightingale opened England's first training school for nurses in 1860．
The invention of the typewriter (打字机) in 1867 helped to bring women out of the home and into the business world．By 1900, thousands of women were working at real jobs in schools, hospitals, and offices in both England and America．Some women even managed to become doctors or lawyers．The idea that women could work in the business world had been accepted． 55．Why couldn't women become teachers easily? Because_______． A．the first profession open to them was writing B．most schools and colleges were open only to men C．they wanted to be nurses instead
D. they didn’t want to be teachers 56．The article is mainly about_______．
A．women in the business world B．the famous Bronte sisters C．schools and colleges in America D．rights for American women 57．Which fact does the article lead you to believe?
A．The Bronte sisters thought that they were men． B．England's first training school for nurses was in Ohio． C．There are more men than women in professional jobs． D．Women find it necessary to work harder than before． 58．Which of the following is TRUE？
A．The typewriter was made in the 1970's． B．Most Englanders are doctors or lawyers． C．People's ideas about women's work have changed． D．The 18th century saw a changing world for women．
