As a girl, Louise Bethune showed great promise(前途) in planning houses and various other structures. As an adult, she was determined to become America's first woman architect(建筑师).
Young architects then usually learned their skills by working in the drafting rooms(绘图室) of professional architects. Most architects didn't want to employ women. But Louise managed to make a well-known architect give her a chance.
She worked from six in the morning to six in the evening. She wasn't paid much. But she learned much as she worked. And her employer allowed her to use his large library.
In 1881, after five years of work and study, Louise set up her own office. She advertised that "the first professional woman architect in the country was ready for business."
Louise insisted that she would not be limited to design private homes just because she was a woman. She sought out a variety of jobs and designed chapels(小教堂), storage buildings, factories and schools. She did very well, inspiring other women to become architects. She often spoke out for fair treatment for women.
When Louise Bethune was a girl, she liked to ______.
A. read picture-books of building
B. play toy-building with other girls
C. plan houses and other buildings
D. plan models of buildings
Millions of words have been written about young people in the United States. There are reasons for this great interest in the ideas, feelings, and actions of youth.
Today there are about seven million Americans in the colleges and universities. Young persons under twenty-five make up nearly half of the American population. Many of these will soon be in charge of the nation. Naturally, their ideas are important to everyone in the country, and it is necessary for older people to understand what they think and feel.
College students today have strong opinions about right and wrong. They are deeply interested in making a better life for all people, especially for those who have not been given a fair chance before now. They see much that is wrong in the lives of their parents. It is hard for them to see what is right and good in the older ways. As a result, there is often trouble in American families.

A. People haven't written much about American youth.
