问答题Passage 4Questions 34 - 45  ● Read the article below about stock exchange.  ● In most of the lines 34 - 45 there is one extra word.

The London Stock Exchange has always been famous as a place for men only, and women  00. used to be strictly forbidden to enter in. But the world is changing day by day, and even the  34. Stock Exchange, which seemed to be a man’s castle, is being gradually opening its doors to the  35. other sex. On 16th November 1971, a great decision was taken out. The Stock Exchange  36. Council (the body of men that administers the Stock Exchange) decided that women be  37. allowed to the new trading floor when it opened in 1973. But the “castle” had not been very  38. completely conquered. The first girls to work in “The House” were not brokers or jobbers.  39. They were neither allowed to be become partners in stocking firms, nor to be authorized dealers  40. in stocks and shares. They were simply junior clerks and telephone operators. Women all  41. have been trying to get into the Stock Exchange for many years. Several votes have been  42. taken in “The House” to see whether the members would be willing to allow many women  43. to become members, but the answer has always been “No”. There have been three refusals of  44. this kind since 1967. Now women are admitted, although they in a very junior capacity.  45. Actually, it is the only a matter of time, it will sure take place sooner or later.
