新视野大学英语4形成性练习读写部分Unit 1 {IJDirectionsFor many women choosing whether to work or not to work outside their home is a luxury; they must work to 1 . Others face a hard decision. One husband said,“ Marge and I decided after careful consideration that for her to go back to work at this moment was an extravagance （奢侈）.We simply couldn't afford it."

There are few decisions that 1 now 5 more. I wasn't mature enough to see how much I could have gained at home. I regret my impatience to get on with my career. 1 wish I had allowed myself the luxury of watching the world through my little girl's eyes.A. needs B. survive C. regret D. emotional E. considered F. perceive G. imprisoned H. mature Key:BEDGC{2}Every fruit, vegetable, grain and domestic animals we see today is the result of genetic modification.
