The fruits that made it to the UK were green on the outside and, more often than not, hard with an unpleasant taste within. Then in 1966, the Del Monte Gold pineapple produced in Hawaii first hit our shelves. The new type of pineapple looked more yellowy-gold than green. It was slightly softer on the outside and had a lot of juice inside. But the most important thing about this new type of pineapple was that it was twice as sweet as the hit-and-miss pineapples we had known. In no time, the Del Monte Gold took the market by storm, rapidly being the worlds best-selling pineapple variety, and delivering natural levels of sweetness in the mouth, up until then only found in tinned pineapple. In nutrition it was all good news too. This nice tasting pineapple contained four times more vitamin C than the old green variety. Nutritionists said that it was not only full of vitamins, but also good against some diseases. People were understandably eager to be able to buy this wonderful fruit. The new type of pineapple was selling fast, and the Del Monte Gold pineapple rapidly became a fixture in the shopping basket of the healthy eater. Seeing the growing market for its winning pineapple, Del Monte tried to keep market to itself. But other fruit panies argued successfully that Del Monte turned to law for help, but failed. Those panies argued successfully that Del Montes attempts to keep the golden pineapple for itself were just a way to knock them out the market.29.

Why was the new type of pineapple selling well? A. It was rich in nutrition and tasted nice. B. It was less sweet and good for health. C. It was developed by Del Monte. D. It was used as medicine.31. The underlined word “fixture” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to something _. A. that people enjoy eating B. that is always present C. that is difficult to get D. that people use as a gift32. We learn from the last paragraph that Del Monte _. A. slowed other panies to develop pineapples B. succeeded in keeping the pineapple for itself C. tried hard to control the pineapple market D. planned to help the other panies DIt is often necessary to release a fish, that is , set it free after catching, because it is too small, or you just dont want to take it home to eat. In some cases, releasing fish is a good measure that will help keep fish variety and build their population size. The Department of Game and Inland Fisheries (DGIF) encourages fishermen who practice catch-and-release fishing to use a few simple skills when doing so.

The hook left inside will cause no serious problem to the fish.Take good care of the fish by moving it gently in water .

Just as immersing（沉浸）yourself in a novel requires pause of disbelief, immersing yourself in listening requires pause of opinions or advice. While judgments may appear into your head, set them to the side.Ask questions to follow your natural curiosity.When youre interested, ask questions. 38 Ask for examples. Ask for details. Following your natural curiosity by asking questions not only shows you are listening and interested, but almost always produces an interesting story.Listen with your whole body.In many a kindergarten classroom, teachers emphasize something called “whole body listening”. It goes like this: use your eyes to watch nonverbal（非语言）, your brain to think about what is being said, your heart to feel emotions and keep the rest of your body quiet to show respect. But many of us lose it over time, especially as life gets busy. The result? We often try to multitask while listening. 39 Validate（使生效）with simple phrases.Keep in your back pocket some validating words and phrases to show youve heard someone.“Of course.” “That makes sense.” “Naturally.” “Clearly.” “For sure.” 40 In conversation, bining those little phrases: “Of course you feel that way.” or “That makes total sense.” doesnt necessarily convey agreement, but it does convey something even bigger： acceptance.A. Create safety.B. Devote yourself to listening.C. Its appealing to talk about your own experience.D. We half-listen while getting things done or staring at a screen.E. Think like a journalist and ask what, when, where, why or how.F. But being a good listener goes way beyond just not interrupting or nodding your head.G. All of these statements confirm a persons experience or feelings as worthy and accepted.第二部分 完形填空 （共20小题，每题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，掌握大意，然后从41-60各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳答案。A woman at the age of 65 lived alone in her little cottage with an apple tree at her door.
