  Yes.the show goes on.No time to enjoy the glory of the last set of titles.It’s time toprepare for me next.Our Assembly Line is in place.It takes a whole year toprepare for the Miss World/Miss Universe contest.And the young hopefulsgive it their disciplined best almost as if they were preparing themselves for an ⅡT entrancetest or the Civil Services exam·

  So what,s wrong with that?Ifone set of kids can further their genetically gifted intellect,why can’t another set further a similarly gifted set of physicalattributes?If brainy kids go to coaching classes.why Can,t the pretty ones go to physical trainers?If cosmeticsurgery,dental cares,balanced diets and workoutsessions produce a happier,healthier and more self-confidentwoman who can takethe world in her stride,perhapsthat’s the way to go·

  Yes.we had just begun to accept it all.We had just begun to create the slots forthe brainy ones and the beauties.And then,suddenly we got a Mrs.World Aditi Gowatrikar with herdreamy green eyes. Brainy.beautiful and awonderful wife and mother to boot·The mother of a two。Year‘old who is also a doctor and asuper model.

  Yes.Aditi has shown US that it is possible todo it all.But can she really be a symbol of Indian

  womanhood assome carried—away journalists and event managers have suggested?Is she themodem day Mother India?The one who can inspire the thousands of mothers and wives to break outof the petty confines of the roles they are forced to play?Will she find an echoamong all those working-women dealingwith families,bosses and unsupportive husbands?To most women.the worldof AditiGowatrikar would seem like a different planet.

  參考譯文

  我打開(kāi)電視,又是她們——下一批世界小姐/環(huán)球小姐候選人。一樣練習(xí)過(guò)的微笑,一樣的招手姿勢(shì),一樣的擁有不真實(shí)不純正口音的主持人——一切都是一樣的。

  是的。比賽開(kāi)始了。沒(méi)時(shí)間去享受上一輪頭銜的榮耀。該為下一輪比賽做準(zhǔn)備了。我們的流水線就位。準(zhǔn)備世界小姐/環(huán)球小姐比賽需要整整一年的時(shí)間。這些充滿希望的年輕人展示出了自己受過(guò)訓(xùn)練的最好的一面,幾乎像是在準(zhǔn)備伊利諾亞理工大學(xué)入學(xué)考試或是公務(wù)員考試。

  因此,那有什么問(wèn)題嗎?如果一批孩子能夠發(fā)展自己遺傳的天賦才能,另一批為何不能發(fā)展類(lèi)似的有天賦的身體特性呢?如果聰明的孩子能去輔導(dǎo)班,那么漂亮的孩子為何不能去找儀態(tài)教練呢?如果整容手術(shù)、牙科護(hù)理、飲食平衡和健身能夠使女人變得更快樂(lè)、更健康、更有自信,能夠從容地面對(duì)世界,那么這條路就是對(duì)的。

  是的,我們才剛剛開(kāi)始全盤(pán)接受這個(gè)事實(shí)。我們才剛剛開(kāi)始為聰明和漂亮的孩子創(chuàng)造一些屬于他們的位置。然后突然我們就看到了世界夫人阿迪提·高薇崔卡夢(mèng)幻般的綠眼睛。美麗與智慧并存,既是好妻子又是好媽媽。這位兩歲孩子的母親,也是醫(yī)生和超模。

  是的,阿迪提向我們展示了把這些都做到是可能的。但是她真的可以像那些熱情的記者和活動(dòng)經(jīng)理所建議的那樣成為印度女性的標(biāo)志嗎?她是現(xiàn)代的印度之母嗎?是那個(gè)可以激勵(lì)成千上萬(wàn)的母親和妻子擺脫那個(gè)束縛她們、迫使她們一直扮演某些角色的狹窄空間的人嗎?在那些應(yīng)付家庭、老板以及無(wú)法為家里提供支持的老公的職業(yè)女性中,她會(huì)找到共鳴嗎?對(duì)于大多數(shù)女性而言,阿迪提·高薇崔卡的世界似乎像一個(gè)不同的星球。

  參考答案及解析

  51.A【精析】推理題。根據(jù)第三段可知,作者在看到世界小姐/環(huán)球小姐比賽后產(chǎn)生了一連串的想法“如果一批孩子能夠…那么這條路就是對(duì)的、”由此可推斷出作者思考了很多。故選A

  52.B【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第二段最后一句“And the young hopefuls give it their disciplined best almost as if they were preparing themselves for an ⅡT entrance test or the Civil Services exam.”可知“這些充滿希望的年輕人展示出了自己受過(guò)訓(xùn)練的最好的一面,幾乎像是在準(zhǔn)備伊利諾亞理[大學(xué)入學(xué)考試或是公務(wù)員考試。”由此可知.這些選手對(duì)待比賽都很認(rèn)真。故選B。

  53.C【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第三段第三句“If brainy kids go to coaching classes,why can’t the pretty ones go to physical trainers?”可知,作者認(rèn)為聰明的孩子和漂亮的孩子都應(yīng)該去發(fā)揮他們的優(yōu)勢(shì)。故選C。

  54.A【精析】推理題。根據(jù)最后一段最后一句“To most women,the world of Aditi Gowatrika would seem like a different planet.”可知“對(duì)于大多數(shù)女性而言,阿迪提·高薇崔卡的世界似乎像一個(gè)不同的星球。”由此可推斷出,對(duì)大多數(shù)印度母親和妻子而言,阿迪提·高薇崔卡的世界不切實(shí)際。故選A。

  55.B【精析】作者觀點(diǎn)態(tài)度題。根據(jù)第三段以及第四段第一句“Yes,we had just begun to accept it all.”可知,作者認(rèn)為既然聰明的孩子可以去上輔導(dǎo)班,漂亮的孩子也可以去找儀態(tài)教練。整容手術(shù)等方式可以讓女人更快樂(lè)、健康和自信,那么這條路或許就是對(duì)的。而且我們已經(jīng)開(kāi)始完全接受這個(gè)事實(shí)。由此可以看出作者對(duì)選美比賽持寬容的態(tài)度。故選B。
