people in britain because you find quite a few of them on every high street. the charity shop is a british institution, selling everything from clothes to electric goods, all at very good prices. you can get things you wont find in the shops anymore. the thing i like best about them is that your money is going to a good cause and not into the pockets of profit-driven companies, and you are not damaging the planet, but finding a new home for unwanted goods. the first charity shop was opened in 1947 by oxfam. the famous charitys appeal to aid postwar greece had been so successful it had been flooded with donations (捐赠物). they decided to set up a shop to sell some of these donations to raise money for that appeal. now there are over 7,000 charity shops in the uk. my favourite charity shop in my hometown is the red cross shop, where i always find childrens books, all 10 or 20 pence each. most of the people working in the charity shops are volunteers, although there is often a manager who gets paid. over 90% of the goods in the charity shops are donated by the public. every morning you see bags of unwanted items outside the front of shops, although they dont encourage this, rather ask people to bring things in when the shop is open. the shops have very low running costs: all profits go to charity work. charity shops raise more than 110 million a year, funding (资助) medical research, overseas aid, supporting sick and poor children, homeless and disabled people, and much more. what better place to spend your money? you get something special for a very good price and a good moral sense. you provide funds to a good cause and tread lightly on the environment.61. the author loves the charity shop mainly because of _. a. its convenient location b. its great variety of

d.7144850 cthe common cold is the worlds most widespread illness, which is plagues（疫病） that flesh receives. the most widespread fallacy（谬误） of all is that colds caused by cold. they are not. they are caused by viruses（病毒） passing on from person to person. you catch a cold by coming into contact, directly or indirectly, with someone who already has one. if cold causes colds, it would be reasonable to expect the eskimos to suffer from them forever. but they do not. and in isolated arctic regions explorers have reported being free from colds until coming into contact again with infected people from the outside world by way of packages and mail dropped from airplanes. during the first world war soldiers who spent long periods in the trenches（战壕）, cold and wet, showed no increased tendency to catch colds. in the second world war prisoners at the notorious auschwitz concentration camp（奥斯维辛集中营）, naked and starving, were astonished to find that they seldom had colds. at the common cold research unit in england, volunteers took part in experiments in which they gave themselves to the discomforts of being cold and wet for long stretches of time. after taking hot baths, they put on bathing suits, allowed themselves to be with cold water, and then stood about dripping wet in drafty room. some wore wet socks all day while others exercised in the rain until close to exhaustion. not one of the volunteers came down with a cold unless a cold virus was actually dropped in his nose. if, then, cold and wet have nothing to do with catching colds, why are they more frequent in the winter？despite the most pains-taking research, no one has yet found the answer. one explanation offered by scientists is that people tend to stay together indoors more in cold weather than at other times, and this makes it easier for cold viruses to be passed on. no one has yet found a cure for the cold. there are drugs and pain suppressors（止痛片） such as aspirin, but all they do is relieve the symptoms（症状）。71. the writer offered _ examples to support his argument.a. 4 b. 5 c. 6 d. 372. which of the following does not agree with the chosen passage？a. the eskimos do not suffer from colds all the time.b. colds are not caused by cold.c. people suffer from colds just because they like to stay indoors.d. a person may catch a cold by touching someone who already has one.73. arctic explorers may catch colds when _.a. they are working in the isolated arctic regionsb. they are writing reports in terribly cold weatherc. they are free from work in the isolated arctic regionsd. they are coming into touch again with the outside world74. volunteers taking part in the experiments in the common cold research unit _.a. suffered a lot b. never caught coldsc. often caught coldsd. became very strong75. the passage mainly discusses _.a. the experiments on the common coldb. the fallacy about the common coldc. the reason and the way people catch coldsd. the continued spread of common colds dhans was an honest fellow with a funny round good-humored face. living alone, every day he worked in his garden. in all the countryside there was no garden so lovely as his. all sorts of flowers grew there, blooming in their proper order as the months went by, one flower taking another flowers place, so that there were always beautiful things to see, and pleasant odors to smell. hans had many friends, the most devoted being the miller. so devoted was the rich miller to hans that hed never go by his garden without plucking a large bunch of flowers or a handful of sweet herbs, or filling his pockets with fruits. the miller used to talk about noble ideas, and hans nodded and smiled, feeling proud of having such a friend. the neighbors thought it strange that the rich miller never gave hans anything in return, though he had hundreds of sacks of flour, many cows and sheep, but hans never troubled his head about these, and nothing gave him greater pleasure than to listen to all the wonderful things about the unselfishness of true friendship. in spring, summer, and autumn hans was very happy, but when winter came, and he had no fruit or flowers to sell, he suffered from cold and hunger. though extremely lonely, the miller never came to see him then. “theres no good in going to see hans while the snow lasts.” the miller said to his wife, “when people are in trouble they shouldnt be bothered. so ill wait till the spring comes when hes happy to give me flowers.” “youre certainly very thoughtful,” answered his wife, “its quite a treat to hear you talk about friendship.” “couldnt we ask hans up here?” said their son. “ill give him half my meal, and show him my white rabbits.” “how silly you are!” cried the miller. “i really dont know whats the use of sending you to school. if hans came up here, and saw our warm fire, our good supper, and our red wine, he might get envious, and envy is a most terrible thing, and would spoil anybodys nature. i am his best friend, and ill always watch over him, and see that hes not led into any temptation. besides, if hans came here, he might ask me for some flour. flour is one thing, and friendship is another, and they shouldnt be confused. the words are spelt differently, and mean quite different things. everybody can see that.” he looked seriously at his son, who felt so ashamed that he hung his head down, and grew quite scared, and began to cry into his tea. spring coming, the miller went down to see hans. again he talked about friendship. “hans, friendship never forgets. im afraid you dont understand the poetry of life. see, how lovely your roses are!” hans said he wanted to sell them in the market to buy back his things which were sold during the hard time of the winter. “ill give you many good things. i think being generous is the base of friendship.” said the miller. “and now, as ill give you many good things, im sure youd like to give me some flowers in return. heres the basket, and fill it quite full.” poor hans was afraid to say anything. he ran and plucked all his pretty roses, and filled the millers basket, imagining the many good things promised by the miller. the next day he heard the miller calling: “hans, would you mind carrying this sack of flour for me to market?” “im sorry, but i am really very busy today.” “well,” said the miller, “considering that im going to give you my things, its rather unfriendly of you to refuse. upon my word, you mustnt mind my speaking quite plainly to you.” poor hans was driven by his friendship theory to work hard for his best friend, leaving his garden dry and wasted. one evening hans was sitting by fire when the miller came. “hans,” cried the miller, “my little boy has fallen off a ladder and hurt himself, and im going for the doctor. but he lives so far away, and its such a bad windy night. it has just occurred to me that you can go instead of me. you know im going to give you my good things, so you should do something for me in return.” “certainly,” cried hans. he struggled into the stormy night, and got the doctor to ride a horse to the millers house in time to save the boy. however, hans got lost in the darkness, and wandered off into a deep pool, drowned. at hans funeral, the miller said, “i was his best friend. i should walk at the head of the procession.” every now and then he wiped his eyes with a handkerchief. 76. from the passage, we can learn that hans _. a. respect the miller very much b. had a strong wish for wealth c. was extremely wise and honest d. was highly spoken of by the miller77. “flour is one thing, and friendship is another” can be understood as _. a. “different words may mean quite different things.” b. “interest is permanent while friendship is flexible.” c. “im afraid you dont understand the poetry of life.” d. “i think being generous is the base of friendship.”78. from the millers talk at home, we can see he was _. a. serious but kind b. helpful and generous c. caring but strict d. selfish and cold-hearted79. whats the main cause of hans sad death? a. little formal education. b. blind devotion to a friend. c. a sudden change of weather. d. true friendship between them 80. the author described the millers behavior in order to _. a. please the readers with an unbelieveable joking tale b. show the friendship between hans and the miller c. warn the readers about the danger of a false friend d. persuade people to be as intelligent as the miller 第二节:任务型阅读 阅读下列材料, 从所给的六个选项(a、b、c、d、e、和f) 中，选出符合各小题要求的最佳选项，选项中有一项是多余选项。 the people below are all looking for a place
