I was busy preparing the traditional Thanksgiving turkey when the doorbell rang. I opened the front door and saw two small children in rags huddling together on the top step.“Any old papers, lady？” asked one of them.I was busy. I wanted to say “no” until I looked down at their feet. They were wearing thin little sandals(凉鞋), wet with heavy snow.“e in and Ill make you a cup of hot cocoa.”They walked over and sat down at the table. Their wet sandals left marks upon the floor. I served them cocoa and bread to fight against the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started cooking.The silence in the front room struck me. I looked in. The girl held the empty cup in her hands, looking at it. The boy asked in a flat voice, “Lady, are you rich？”“Am I rich? Pity, no！”I looked at my wornout slipcovers(椅套). The girl put her cup back in its saucer(茶碟)carefully and said, “Your cups match your saucers.” They left after that, holding their papers against the wind. They had reminded me that I had so much for which to be grateful.Plain blue china cups and saucers were only worth five pence. But they matched.I tasted the potatoes and stirred(搅动)the meat soup. Potatoes and brown meat soup, a roof over our heads, my man with a regular job, these matched, too.I moved the chairs back from the fire and cleaned the living room. The muddy marks of little sandals were still wet upon my floor. Let them be for a while, I thought, just in case I should begin to forget how rich I am. 24Which of the following would be the best title for the text?ALady, are you rich? BA story of Thanksgiving DayCDont forget how rich you are DDo cups and saucers match well?25Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?AIf cups and saucers match well, they are a best pair even though cheap.BThe writer had thought she wasnt rich because her supplies were not expensive.CThe girl thought the writer was rich just because she wanted to make the writer happy.DAfter hearing what they said, the writer seemed to understand what a rich life was.26The writer left the muddy marks of little sandals on the floor for a while to_.Ashow that she was a kindhearted ladyBremind her that she shouldnt forget how rich she wasCleave room for readers to think about what being rich isDprove that she had understood what meant being rich27It can be inferred from the text that whether you are rich depends on_.Ahow much money you have made Byour social relationshipCthe way you help others Dwhat attitude you have had towards lifeCDo you love Beats headphones, True Religion jeans, and UGG shoes? These are some of the most popular brands (牌子) around. They are also expensive. But some experts say they are not much better than cheaper brands.For example, Jim Wilcox works for Consumer Reports. He tested all kinds of headphones. He says that $80 Koss Pro headphones provide basically the same quality and fort as Beats. So why do people pay twice or even 10 times as much for the hottest brands?Experts say its because fashionable, expensive brands send a message. Brands say “I belong” or “I can afford it.”Some people think that expensive brand names are worth the price. They say that some designer clothes really are top quality and that they last longer than cheaper brands. Some teenagers choose to wear popular brands because these brands make them feel good about themselves.Alexandra Allam, 17, likes to buy brand-name products. “Id rather spend the extra money to get something I know Ill be satisfied with,” she says. Her friend Emmy Swan agrees, saying “As long as you can afford it, it seems reasonable to buy what you want.” But not all teenagers agree. “Spending hundreds of dollars for designer sunglasses is stupid and unreasonable,” says Daniel Steinbrecher, 16. “Its fake (假的) happiness.”People who are against wearing expensive brand names say that many designer brands arent any better. “Its wasteful to buy things just because they are popular,” says Edmund Williams, 15. “Youll feel better if you buy things because you like them. If you have extra money to spend, it would be better to give it to people in need.”28. The example of Jims report wants to tell us _.A. lesser-known brands may offer the same quality as name brandsB. Koss Pro headphones are better than BeatsC. the hottest brands are of the highest qualityD. popular brands make people fortable29. According to experts, people choose the hottest brands probably _.A. to show offB. for their better qualityC. for their better designsD. to belong to a special group30. What does Edmund think of expensive brands?A.They need to improve their quality. B. They make him feel confident.C. They are not worth the price.D. They pay too much attention to personal likes.31. The text is mainly about _.A. how to buy things reasonablyB. the petition between brandsC. whether expensive brands are worth high pricesD.the different values of teenagersDLets face it.No one drinks diet soda for the taste.People drink diet soda in the hope that it will help them lose weight or at least keep them from gaining it.Yet it seems to have exactly the opposite effect, according to a new study.Researchers from the University of Texas said those who drank two or more diet sodas a day had waist size increases that were six times greater than those who didnt drink diet soda.What we saw was that the more diet sodas a person drank, the more weight they were likely to gain, said Sharon Fowler.The study was based on data from 474 participants in a large, ongoing research project, where the participants were followed for nearly l0 years .While the findings are surprising, they also offer some explanations.Nutrition expert, Melanie Rogers, who works with overweight patients in New York, has found that when patients are switched(转换) from regular to diet soda, they dont lose weight at all.We werent seeing weight loss necessarily, and that was confusing to us, said Rogers.So why would diet soda cause weight gain? No one knows for sure yet, but it could be that people think they can eat more if they drink diet soda, and so over-pensate(补偿) for the missing calories.A related study found some sweeteners （甜味剂） raised blood sugar levels in some mice.Data from this and other studies suggest that the promotion of diet sodas and sweeteners may be risky, said Helen P.Hazuda, professor at the University of Texass school of medicine.They may be free of calories, but not of consequences.32. People drink diet soda to _. Aenjoy its taste Bgain more energy Cstay in fashion Dachieve weight loss 33The new study suggests that drinking diet soda _.Amakes people much thinner Bhelps people to be healthierCcauses people to bee heavier Doffers people more calories34. We can learn from the passage that _Aregular soda makes people lose more weight Bdiet soda drinkers might eat more food Cdiet soda does help reduce calories Dmost blood diseases e from diet soda35 The underlined word They in the last paragraph probably refers to _.Asweeteners Bdiet sodas and sweetenersCsodas Ddiet soda drinkers and sweetener takers第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 36 You probably think you will never be a top student.
