Winter is near at hand. On his bench in Madison Square, Soapy moved uneasily.

A dead leaf fell in Soapy’s lap. Soapy’s mind became aware that the time had come for him to resolve himself into a singular Committee of ways and means to provide against the coming rigour(严寒).

Soapy left his bench and wandered out of the square. Up Broadway he turned, and stopped at a glittering café. but the head waiter’s eye fell upon his ragged trousers and shoes. Strong and ready hands turned him about and conveyed him in silence and haste to the sidewalk.

At a corner of Sixth Avenue electric lights, Soapy took a cobble-stone and dashed it through the glass. People came running round the corner, a policeman in the lead. Soapy stood still, with his hands in his pockets, waiting to be taken away. But the policeman’s mind refused to accept Soapy even as a clue.

On the opposite side of the street was a small restaurant. At a table Soapy sat and consumed beefsteak, flap-jacks, and pie. And then to the waiter he betrayed the fact that the minutest coin and himself were strangers.

“Now, get busy and call a cop,” said Soapy. To his disappointment, neatly upon his left ear on the hard pavement, two waiters pitched Soapy. He struggled to his feet and beat the dust from his clothes. Arrest seemed but a rosy dream. The Island seemed very far away.

Five blocks Soapy travelled before his courage permitted him to run after capture again. A young woman of a modest and pleasing dress was standing before a show window gazing with shining interest at its display, and two yards from the window a large policeman leaned against a water-plug.

Soapy sidled toward the young woman, causing her to move away a few steps. With half an eye he saw the policeman was watching him fixedly. Soapy bravely stepped to the woman’s side, raised his hat and said: “Ah, Bedelia! Don’t yowant to come and play in my yard?”

“Sure, Mike,” she said joyfully, “if you’ll buy me some beers. I’d have spoken to yosooner, but the cop was watching.”

The young woman then became attached to him. At the next corner he shook off his companion and ran.

On the sidewalk Soapy began to yell drunken gibberish(胡言乱语) at the top of his harsh voice. He danced, howled, and otherwise disturbed the peace. A policeman turned his back to Soapy and explained to a citizen, “This is one of the Yale guys celebrating the goose egg they give to the Hartford College. Noisy, but no harm.” Depressed, Soapy paused his seemingly useless roaring. Would never a policeman lay hands on him? In his fancy the Island seemed an unreachable Arcadia(世外桃源).

In a cigar store he saw a well-dressed man lighting a cigar at a swinging light. His silk umbrella he had set by the door on entering. Soapy stepped inside, secured the umbrella and went off with it slowly. The man at the cigar light followed hurriedly.

“My umbrella,” he said severely. “Oh, is it?” sneered Soapy, “Well, why don’t yocall a policeman? There stands one on the corner.”“ Well,”said the umbrella man, “Yoknow how these mistakes occur. I, I, if it’s your umbrella, I hope you’ll excuse me. I picked it up this morning in a restaurant. If yorecognise it as yours, I hope you’ll…” “Of course it’s mine,” said Soapy evilly.

Soapy walked eastward through a street. He threw the umbrella angrily into a dustbin. He complained about the cop. He wanted to be thrown into the Blackwell’s, but they seemed to regard him as a king who could do no wrong.

第五部分 任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分，满分10分)

Few women choose academic careers in math-intensive fields because the lifestyle is not consistent with motherhood, researchers at Cornell University found in a study to be published next month in American Scientist Magazine.

Universities have long been criticized for hiring and evaluation policies that discriminate against women, but the findings of this new study point to the female biological clock as a main reason why so few women end up as professors in fields such as math, engineering, physics and computer science.

A woman who wants a family looks at the tough path to a tenured(终身的)position and considers how old she will be before she can start a family and how little time she will have to raise her children. Many of those women choose a more flexible career.
