All the shops reduce their prices and for two weeks they are full of people looking for bargains. My husband and I do not normally go to the sales as we dont like crowds and in any case are short of money as we have to buy lots of Christmas presents.Last year, however, I took my husband with me to the sales at the large department stores in the center of London. We both needed some new clothes and were hoping to find a portable television set. When we arrived in Oxford Street, it was so crowded that we decided to split up and meet again at the underground station. So I left my husband and started looking around the shops. Unfortunately all the clothes were in very large sizes and so were not suitable for me. But I did buy a television at a very cheap price, so I felt quite pleased with myself. When I arrived at the station my husband was not there so I sat down in a nearby cafe to have a cup of tea. I quickly finished my tea when I saw him and went out to meet him. He looked very happy. Then I saw he was carrying a large and heavy cardboard box. “Oh, dear!” I thought. Yes, we had no new clothes but we did have two televisions. We shall not be going to the sales again.36.

There are serious papers for those who want to know about important happenings everywhere, both at home and abroad. There are popular newspapers for those who prefer entertainment (娱乐) to information.The London newspaper that is best known outside Great Britain is probably THE TIMES. It began in 1785, and has a high reputation (名声) for believable news and serious opinions on the news. It calls itself an independent paper, which means that it does not give its support to any particular political party. Its leading articles give the opinions of the editors, not those of the owners of the paper. Letters to the editor are printed in parts of the newspapers. These parts of THE TIMES are always interesting. Most of the letters are on the subject which is not at all serious, perhaps on a new fashion of dress, or the bad manners of the young people, compared with the manners of thirty years ago.41. If you want to get pleasure, please buy yourself _ .A. a serious newspaperB. a foreign newspaperC. a popular newspaperD. any independent paper42. THE TIMES is very famous, partly because _.A. news carried in the paper can be accepted as trueB. i
