“ i replied. “theres nothing wrong with it? “ this made him look a bit insulted and i started to feel bad. “no, no, but you should try it,” he said encouragingly. “compare it with the others.” i looked across at the others:shelves of similar cameras placed along the wall, offering a wide range of slightly different prices and discounts, with each company selling a range of models based around the same basic box. with so many models to choose from, it seemed that i would have to spend hours weighing x against y, always trying to take z and possibly r into account at the same time. but when i had finished, i would still have only the same two certainties that i had entered the store with:first, soon after i carried my new camera out of the shop, it would be worth half what i paid for it; and second, my wonderful camera would very quickly be replaced by a new model. but something in the human soul whispers that you can beat these traps by making the right choice, the clever choice, the wise choice. in the end, i agreed to try the model i had chosen. the assistant seemed a sincere man. so i let him take out my chosen camera from the cupboard, show how it took excellent pictures of my fellow shoppers. . . and when he started to introduce the special features, i interrupted to ask whether i needed to buy a carry-case and a memory card as well. why do we think that new options (选择) still offer us anything new? perhaps it is because they offer an opportunity to avoid facing the foot that our real choices in this culture are far more limited than we would like to imagine. 1. the shop assistant insisted that the writer should.a. try the camera to see if there was anything wrong with itb. compare the camera he had chosen with the othersc. get more information about different companiesd. trust him and stop asking questions2. what does the writer mean by“it would be worth half what i paid for it” (paragraph 2)? a. he should get a 50% discount.b. the price of the camera was unreasonably high.c. the quality of the camera was not good.d. the camera would soon fall in value.3. the writer decided to try the model he had chosen because he.a. knew very little about itb. didnt trust the shop assistantc. wanted to make sure the one he chose would be the bestd. had a special interest in taking pictures of his fellow shoppers4. it can be inferred from the passage that in the writers opinion, .a. people waste too much money on camerasb. cameras have become an important part of our daily lifec. we dont actually need so many choices when buying a productd. famous companies care more about profit than quality【参考答案】14、 bdcc阅读melissa poe was 9 years old when she began a campaign for a cleaner environment by writing a letter to the then president bush. through her own efforts, her letter was reproduced on over 250 donated billboards (广告牌) across the country. the response to her request for help was so huge that poe established kids for a cleaner environment(kids f. a. c. e. )in 1989. there are now 300, 000 members of kids f. a. c. e. worldwide and it is the worlds largest youth environmental organization. poe has also asked the national park service to carry out a“childrens forest” project in every national park. in 1992, she was invited as one of only six children in the world to speak at the earth summit in brazil as part of the voices of the future program. in 1993, she was given a caring award for her efforts by the caring institute. since the organization started, kids f. a. c. e. members have distributed and planted over 1 million trees! ongoing tree-planting projects include kids yardsthe creation of backyard wildlife habitats (栖息地) and now kids f. a. c. e. is involved in the exciting earth odyssey, which is a great way to start helping. “starting the club turned out to be a way to help people get involved with the environment. club members started doing things like recycling, picking up litter and planting trees as well as inviting other kids to join their club. “ “we try to tell kids that its not ok to be lazy,” she explains. “you need to start being a responsible, environmentally friendly person now, right away, before you become a resource-sucking adult.”1. kids f. a. c. e. is.a. a program to help students with writingb. a project of litter recyclingc. a campaign launched by president bushd. a club of environmental protection2. what can we learn about poe?
