We immediately rushed out to a store, and I bought a nice pink dress with a jacket. The dress was a little tight, but I had a month to go before the June 30 wedding and I would lose a few pounds.June 29 came and, of course, I hadnt lost a single pound; in fact I had gained two. But I figured a nice new girdle (紧身内衣) would cure everything. So on our way out of the city we stopped once again at the store. I ran in and told the clerk I needed a large-size girdle. The shop assistant found the box with the described girdle marked “LG”, and asked if I would like to try it on. “Oh, no, a large one will fit just right. I neednt try it on.”The next morning was rather hot, so I waited to get dressed until about 45 minutes before time to go. I opened the box only to find a new girdle in a small size. Since it was too late to find another one and the dress wouldnt fit right without a girdle, a fight broke out in the hotel room between me and the girdle. Have you ever tried to shake 20 pounds of potatoes into a five-pound bag? Thats it. Finally my husband, laughing like crazy, got hold of each side and shook me down into it. At once I put on the pink dress, which didnt match my red face well, and was ready to go.Finally we got to the church. I heard one of the people say that they were having a High Mass. I turned to my husband and asked, “What is a High Mass?” He shrugged his shoulders.Unfortunately, I learned that this particular mass would last one hour, twenty-two minutes and eight and one half seconds - the priest (神父) was going to bless everything except my girdle.26.

Here are some of the good habits you can develop when it comes to healthy eating.Drink plenty of water. You must drink at least 8 glasses of water a day. You may need even more water if you are in a hot environment or if you are exercising.Eat breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. A recent study has shown that those who eat breakfast will consume an average of 100 calories less during the day than their colleagues who skipped breakfast. They will also be able to concentrate better.Dont skip lunch. If you do so, your blood sugar level will drop and your metabolism (新陈代谢) will slow down. When you get home you are starving and eat everything you can find.We all need to snack from time to time, but please choose your snacks carefully. In fact, its a good idea to eat two healthy snacks besides your three main meals. Choose healthy snacks like fruits and vegetables, low fat yogurt, cottage cheese with apple sauce, and so on.Eat your fruit and vegetables. We should eat at least 5 servings of fruits and vegetables a day. Take a piece of fruit for a snack, add some banana and raisins to your favourite breakfast cereal, have a salad with lunch, and eat at least one vegetable at dinner each night.Do not eat your dinner too late. Try to eat dinner at least 3 hours before you go to bed. This will give your body a chance to digest most of the food before you rest for the next 8 hours. Plan dinner for the week ahead of time and make sure you have everything you need in the house so other family members can get a head start on dinner if you have a late meeting at the office.36.

Cooks.40. You may most probably find this article _.A. in a textbook B. in a science fiction bookC. in a websiteD. in an advertisementDWhile the history of technology can be traced along many lines, one of the most intriguing (引人入胜的) development is that of photo technology, the technology of light. From the prehistoric invention of fire to laser beams (激光束) and fiber optics (光纤), light has “continually occupied the minds of inventors”. Their inventions fall into two groups: the use of light to help us see better and more interestingly, the use of light for purposes of communication.The use of light for communicating is one of the major directions that technology has taken ever since the middle of the nineteenth century. From still photography to motion pictures to television (with a development from black-and-white to color imagery in each), photo technology has had a great effect upon mass communication and mass education. Unlike the printed word, visual images have more impact because they are more immediate: They copy reality in a way that the printed word cannot. Unlike letter shapes, they are not abstract; unlike words, they require no symbolic interpretation by the mind. Combined with the widespread and uniform spreading of such images, photo technology affects the thinking of vast audiences and shapes their view of reality.Millions of Americans are affected by the commercially-inspired electronic manipulation (操作) of artificial images. We call it “entertainment” and cant wait to get more.As the number of commercially available television channels grows, the viewers freedom of choice increases, but so does the burden of that choice. Increasingly he is faced with a sea of information and is asked to make quick choices.More significantly, the ease and rapidity of mass communication has created a supply of information greater than it can readily be absorbed. Flooded in the sea of information, the individual struggles to swim through it.41. It can be learned about the technology of light from the first paragraph that _.A. its mere practical use is to enable people to see wellB. it achieved a remarkable development in the early nineteenth centuryC. its development is related to the study of the history of technologyD. it has aroused the interest of inventors ever since ancient times42. According to the passage, visual images differ from the printed words in that _.A. they have much deeper meaningsB. they have a greater immediate influence upon the viewerC. they fail to produce a beneficial effect upon youngstersD. they enable the viewer to use his imagination fully43. It can be learned from the passage that with the development of photo technology, _.A. more and more people seem to prefer TV programs to reading activitiesB. the number of TV viewers has become greater than that of film goersC. more and more television channels are openedD. it takes less time for a new idea to be absorbed44. The underlined word “impact” is most probably equal to _.A. influence B. effort C. value D. audience45. The paragraph is mainly about _.A. the speed of mass communication B. the influence of light on communicationC. the history of technologyD. the number of television channels第二节 信息匹配(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)以下是电影信息：A.
