What needs to occur in order for the goals of the fourth women's conference to be realized？
The tanker lay in the bay for tour days, a few hundred meters from the shore.. In this tideless water she lay as still and secure as if fastened to a wall. In a way, she was, for the sandy bottom held her in its grip. Twice the harbor master' s boat went out to her; the second time it brought off a number of the crew. It never occurred to the watchers on shore that the ship was in danger, she looked so calm and seaworthy. From time to time there was activity on board: when a land wind rose in the evenings, the tanker' s engines came to life. Then the vessel shook herself and strained fiercely, but none of it did her any good. She just stayed where she was in the bay.
The July sun blazed down on her flat decks. Occasionally a seaman, stripped to the waist, came out on to the deck with the movements of someone performing a complicated dance, stepping lightly, never resting on that burning metal. Once or twice he kept close to the ship' s rail, with an arm raised against the sunlight, stating at the people on the beach. Throughout the day the air rose in visible waves from the tanker' s decks. When a sea wind blew, it brought with it the heavy smell of oil. At night the ship lay in total darkness.
On the fifth morning a thick bank of sea mist filled the bay. It seemed that the tanker had got away in the night and gone into harbor. But this was an illusion. Slowly, as the fog cleared a little, she came into view again but farther out. Soon two figures could be seen at work on her decks. There was the sound of hammering, of metal on metal, and then of something heavy falling on to the deck. At once the watchers on shore were half blinded by a flash of yellow light that enveloped the ship from end to end. The explosion that followed the flash was like a single crack from a giant whip. In a moment the ship, except for a dark line at water level, was lost to sight behind the flames.
Two bodies were washed ashore in the bay. they were stripped to the waist, bare-footed, and black with flash bums. The right arm of one body was raised to the forehead as if shielding the eyes from some bright light. The other man wore a gold chain round his neck. The tanker burned for nine days and nights.
The tanker could not sail into the harbor because ______.
Doctors have their own special sleep problems. Residents are famously short of sleep. It is not unusual for. them to work 40 hours in a row without rest. They are not in the least worried about it, confident they can still deliver the highest quality of medical care. But an article in the Journal of the American Medical Association points out that in the morning after 24 hours of sleeplessness, a person' s motor performance is comparable to that of someone who is drunk. Curiously, surgeons who believe that operating under the influence of alcohol is grounds for sacking often don' t think twice about operating without enough sleep.
"I could tell you horror stories," says Jaya Agrawal, president of the American Medical Student Association, which runs a website for residents. Some are terrifying." I was operating after being up for over 36 hours," one writes. "I literally fell asleep standing up and nearly planted my face into the wound."
"Practically every surgical resident I know has fallen asleep at the wheel driving home from work," writes another. "I know of three who have hit parked cars. Another hit a 'Jersey gate' on the New Jersey Expressway, going 105kin/h."
"Your own patients have become the enemy," writes a third, because they are "the one thing that stands between you and a few hours of sleep."
The U.S. controls the hours of pilots and truck drivers. But until such a system is in place for doctors, patients are on their own. If you're worded about the people treating you or a loved one, you should feel free to ask how many hours of sleep they have had and if more rested staffers are available.
Sleep is a funny thing because ______.

Directions: Read the following three texts. Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.
Fourteen-year-old Richie Hawley had spent five years studying violin at the Community School of Performing Arts in Los Angeles when he took part in a violin contest. Ninety-two young people were invited to the contest and Hawley cane out first.
The contest could have been the perfect setup for fear, worrying about mistakes l and trying to impress the judges. But Hawley says he" did pretty well at staying calm. I couldn' t be thinking about how many mistakes I'd make--it would distract me from playing," he says. "I don' t even remember trying to impress people while I played. It' s almost as if they weren' t there. I just wanted to make music."
Hawley is a winner. But he didn' t become a winner by concentrating on winning. He did it by concentrating on playing well.
"The important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part," said the founder of the modem Olympics, Pierre de Coubertin. "The important thing in life is not the triumph but the straggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well."
New research shows that Coubertin' s philosophy is exactly the path achievers take to win at life' s challenging games.
A characteristic of high performers is their intense, pleasurable concentration on work, rather than on their competitors or future glory or money, says Dr. Charles Garfield, who has studied 1,500 achievers in business, science, sports, the arts, and professions. "They are interested in winning, but they're most interested in self-development, testing their limits."
One of the most surprising things about top performers is how many losses they' ve had--and how much they' ve learned from each. "Not one of the 1,500 I studied defined losing as failing," Garfield says. "They kept calling their losses ' setbacks. '"
A healthy attitude toward setbacks is essential to winning, experts agree.
"The worst thing you can do if you' ve had a setback is to let yourself get stuck in a prolonged depression. You should analyze carefully what went wrong, identify specific things you did right and give yourself credit for them." Garfield believes that most people don' t give themselves enough praise. He even suggests keeping a diary of all the positive things you've done on the way to a goal.
Hawley won the contest because ______.
