Up to the beginning of this century, women seem to have had (53) fights. They could not vote and were kept at home. (54) , as far as we know, most women were happy with this situation. Today, women in Britain certainly (55) more rights than they used to. They were (56) the vote in 1919. In 1970 a law was passed to give them an equal (57) of wealth in the case of divorce, (58) the Equal Pay Act gave them the right of equal pay with men for work of equal value in the same year.
Yet (59) these changes, there are still great difference in status between men and women. Many employers seem to (60) the Equal Pay Act, and the average working women is (61) to earn only about half that a man earns for the same job.

听力原文： [14] Compared with Walt Whitman whom we discussed last week, I found Emily Dickinson strikingly different. She seemed in fact to be the complete opposite of Whitman in her life and in her work. I would like to share briefly with the class some of the trial facts of her biography. Emily Dickinson was born in Amherst, Massachusetts, in 1830, nearly a decade after Whitman. In her early 20s for reasons that still remain a mystery she began to withdraw her ordinary contact with the world. [15] For the remaining 30 years of her life, she was seldom seen outside her home. In this respect she was quite unlike Whitman who loved the great outdoors. Emily Dickinson spent her solitary days corresponding with her friends and writing hundreds of remarkable poems, notably I Heard a Fly Buzz and the poem we have read for today I'm Nobody. Although she showed none of her poems to her family and sent none in letters to friends only four were published in her life time. [16] Most of the almost 12 poems were discovered in her room after she died in 1886 at the age of 56. These poems established her as a major poet, and several modem critics consider her the greatest woman poet in the English language. Eh, that's about all I have. Are there any questions？ If not, [17] we should probably begin talking about Dickinson's I'm Nobody, the poem Professor May assigned for this week's class discussion.
The discussion topic of the previous class meeting was
The recitation of a poetry by the teacher or a student in the classroom ______.
Long Bus Ride
Long bus rides are like television shows. They have a beginning, a middle, and an end-with commercials thrown in every three or four minutes. The commercials are unavoidable. They happen whether you want them or not. Every couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus window. "Buy Super Clean Toothpaste. " "Drink Good'n Wet Root Beer. " "Fill up with Pacific Gas. " Only if you sleep, which is equal to turning the television set off, are you spared the unending cry of "You Need It! Buy It Now!"
The beginning of the ride is comfortable and somewhat exciting, even if you've traveled that way before. Usually some things have changed-new houses, new buildings, sometimes even a new road. The bus driver has a style. of driving and it's fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so. If the driver is particularly reckless or daring, the ride can be as thrilling as a suspense story. Will the driver pass the truck in time？ Will the driver move into the right or the left-hand lane？ After a while, of course, the excitement dies down. Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride. Food always makes bus rides more interesting. But you've got to be careful of what kind of food you eat. Too much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops.
The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning. You know it will soon be over and there's a kind of expectation and excitement in that. The seat, of course, has become harder as the hours have passed. By now you've sat with you legs crossed, with your hands crossed behind your head. The end comes just at the right time. There are just no more ways to sit.
According to the passage, what do the passengers usually see when they are on a long bus trip？
A．because ofB．instead ofC．in spite ofD．as a result of
