2015山东省济南市高考英语阅读理解九月统练（2）及答案阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的a,b,c或d四个选项中，选出最佳选项。i needed to buy a digital camera, one that was simply good at taking good snaps(快照), maybe occasionally for magazines. being the cautious type, i fancied a reliable brand. so i went on the net, spent 15 minutes reading product reviews on good websites, wrote down the names of three top recommendations and headed for my nearest big friendly camera store. there in the cupboard was one of the cameras on my list. and it was on special offer. oh joy. i pointed at it and asked an assistant, “can i have one of those?” he looked perturbed (不安). “do you want to try it first?” he said. it didnt quite sound like a question. “do i need to? “ 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 【2014高考英语安徽省联考模拟试题】 its not about how much money you make, and its not about who your daddy is. and no, its definitely not about whether you look like tom cruise or his wife katie holmes . what it is about is these simple things, things that maybe even a person like tom cruise does not have.were talking about being attractive in general, whether its on a job interview or just gaining the respect of your colleagues.ask lots of questionsin other words, be humble. if you come across as a know-it-all (even if you really do know it all!)， it really pushes people away. rather, asking lots and lots of questions (even dumb ones) makes people feel like you care, you can be trusted, and you are. humble.stay busydo you really know the power of this?
