by第三节：阅读理解（共20小题，每小题2分，满分40分） ai was in a rush as always, but this time it was for an important date i just couldnt be late for! i found myself at a checkout counter behind an elderly woman seemingly in no hurry as she paid for her groceries. a phd student with not a lot of money, i had hurried into the store to pick up some flowers. i was in a huge rush, thinking of my upcoming evening. i did not want to be late for this date.we were in boston, a place not always known for small conversation between strangers. the woman stopped unloading her basket and looked up at me. she smiled. it was a nice smile warm and reassuring and i returned her gift by smiling back. “must be a special lady, whoever it is that will be getting those beautiful flowers,” she said. “yes, shes special,” i said, and then to my embarrassment, the words kept coming out.“its only our second date, but somehow i am just having the feeling shes the one.” jokingly, i added, “the only problem is that i cant figure out why shed want to date a guy like me.”“well, i think shes very lucky to have a boyfriend who brings her such lovely flowers and who is obviously in love with her,” the woman said.” “my husband used to bring me flowers every week even when times were tough and we didnt have much money. those were incredible days; he was very romantic and of course i miss him since hes passed away.”i paid for my flowers as she was gathering up her groceries. there was no doubt in my mind as i walked up to her. i touched her on the shoulder and said, “you were right, you know. these flowers are indeed for a very special lady.” i handed her the flowers and thanked her for such a nice conversation.it took her a moment to realize that i was giving her the flowers i had just purchased. “you have a wonderful evening,” i said. i left her with a big smile and my heart warmed as i saw her smelling the beautiful flowers.i remember being slightly late for my date that night and telling my girlfriend the above

i would rather forget. but none of these jobs was as terrible as my job in an apple plant(工厂). the work was hard; the pay was poor; and, most of all, the working conditions were terrible. first of all, the job made huge demands on my strength. for ten hours a night, i took boxes that rolled down a metal track and piled them onto a truck. each box contained twelve heavy bottles of apple juice. i once figured out that i was lifting an average of twelve tons of apple juice every night. i would not have minded the difficulty of the work so much if the pay had not been so poor. i was paid the lowest wage of that timetwo dollars an hour. because of the low pay, i felt eager to get as much as possible. i usually worked twelve hours a night but did not take home much more than $ 100 a week. but even more than the low pay, what made me unhappy were the working conditions. during work i was limited to two ten-minute breaks and an unpaid half hour for lunch. most of my time was spent outside loading trucks with those heavy boxes in near-zero-degree temperatures. the steel floors of the trucks were like ice, which made my feet feel like stone. and after the production line shut down at night and most people left, i had to spend two hours alone cleaning the floor.i stayed on the job for five months, all the while hating the difficulty of the work, the poor money, and the conditions under which i worked. by the time i left, i was determined never to go back there again.49. why did the writer have to take many jobs at that time?ato gain some experience bto save for his futurecto support his family dto pay for his schooling 50. the following facts describe the terrible working conditions of the plant except _.a. loading boxes in the freezing cold b. having limited

introductionsupporting examplesconclusion d. main ideacomparisonsupporting examplesd supermarkets are trying out new computers that make shopping carts (购物车) more intelligent(具备智能的). they will help shoppers find paper cups or toilet soap, and keep a record of the bill. the touch-screen devices(触摸屏装置) are on show at the food marketing institutes exhibition here this week, “these devices are able to create value and get you around the store quicker,” said michael alexander, manager of springboard retail networks inc., which makes a smart cart computer called the concierge. canadian stores will test the concierge in july. a similar device, ibms “shopping buddy”, has recently been test-marketed at stop & shop stores in massachusetts. neither device tells you how many fat grams or calories are in your cart, but they will flash you with items on sale. the idea is to make it easier for people to buy, not to have second thoughts that maybe you should put something back on the shelf. “the whole model is driven by advertisers need to get in front of shoppers,” said alexander. “theyre not watching 30-second tv ads anymore.” people can use a home computer to make their shopping lists. once at the store, a shopper can use a preferred customer card to start a system(系统) that will organize the trip around the store. if youre looking for toothpicks, you type in the word or pick it from a list, and a map will appear on the screen showing where you are and where you can find them. the device also keeps a record of what you buy. when youre finished, the device figures out your bill. then you
