That was exactly what happened several days ago, causing me great embarrassment.I was waiting for my train home at the station when a boy 17 at my side. His beautifully-curved face, his fashionable clothing and everything else about him, was so 18 that I just couldnt help gazing (注视) at him. What was more 19 was that, he was also stealing some 20 at me, which made me blush (脸红) to the ends of my ears! Still, I tried to be calm and 21 that nothing had happened. However, once again when our eyes met, I could hear my heart 22 wildly, with an inner voice yelling, “Oh, my goodness, he is driving me 23 !” Shortly, I lowered my head to 24 his eyes, but my thoroughly red face had revealed (泄露) 25 .To my pleasant surprise, my 26 came true this time, as the handsome guy was drawing 27 ! “Oh, please! Dont 28 . Look at me. I am so sweaty and sloppy (多情的). Please dont 29 my telephone number. You know I will give it to you without 30 , and that is so unladylike!” I was still struggling and trembling when he 31 right in front of me. “Excuse me.” he said with a slight hesitation. His voice was so nice, but I wish I had not 32 it, for in the end, he said: “I am sorry, but could you please give me my 33 back? Yours is over there.” Oh, my God! Nothing could have been more 34 when I handed his bag back to him, as shame almost brought me to tears.From that, I drew a big 35 : never imagine too much if someone gives you a few glances.16. A.

I stood in the living room doorway, looking at her beautiful movements, absolutely shocked. She was the pet of the dancing world. And then shed had her accident and it was all over. I had read that in an old newspaper article.So Your leg? I mean, how did your leg heal (恢复健全)?”“To tell you the truth my legs have been well all my life,” she sighed.“But I dont understand!” I said, “Your dancing career (事业) You pretended all these years?”Very much so, and for a very good reason.”She thought for a while and then continued. “We were talking about engagement (订婚) when your grandfather had to go to war. I was so afraid of losing him that the only way I could stay normal was to dance. I put all my energy and time into practicing and I became very good. Critics praised me, the public loved me, but all I could feel was the ache in my heart, not knowing whether the love of my life would ever return. Then one day a letter came. There were only three sentences: I have lost my leg. I am no longer a whole man and now give you back your freedom. It is best you forget about me.“I made my decision there and then. I traveled away from the city. When I returned I had bought myself a stick. I told everyone I had been in a car crash and that my leg would never completely heal again. My dancing days were over.

You are going to walk yourself.”“I limped a few steps toward him and showed him what Id taken out of my pocket. Now show me you are still a man. I said. He bent to take his stick from the ground and struggled out of that wheelchair. He managed it on his own and walked to me and never sat in a wheelchair again in his life.”“What did you show him?” I had to know. Grandma looked at me and smiled. “Two engagement rings, of course.

In which part of a website are you most likely to find the passage?A. Travel.B. Entertainment.C. News.D. Comments.CWhether theyre project documents, trade journals, blogs, business books or ebooks, most of us read regularly as part of our jobs, and to develop our skills and knowledge.But do you ever read what should be a useful document, yet fail to gain any helpful information from it? Or, re-read something several times to get a full understanding of the content? If so, look at the following strategies (策略) that will help you read more effectively.Think About What You Want to KnowBefore you start reading anything, ask yourself why youre reading it. Are you reading with a purpose, or just for pleasure? What do you want to know after youve read it? Once you know your purpose, you can examine the resource (资源) to see whether its going to help you.Ask yourself whether the resource meets your needs, and try to work out if it will give you the right amount of knowledge. If you think that the resource isnt consummate, dont waste time reading it. Know How Deeply to Study the MaterialWhere you only need the shallowest knowledge of a subject, you can skim material. Here you read only chapter headings, introductions, and summaries.If you need a moderate (中等的) level of information on a subject, then you can scan the text. This is when you read the chapter introductions and summaries in detail. You can then speed read the contents of the chapters, picking out and understanding key words and concepts.Only when you need full knowledge of a subject is it worth studying the text in detail (细节). Here its best to skim the material first to get an overview of the subject. This gives you an understanding of its structure, into which you can then fit the detail gained from a full reading of the material. 44. Why should we know our purpose before reading?A. Because we can develop our skills and knowledge.B. Because we can get a full understanding of the content.C. Because we can avoid re-reading something several times.D.

Think About What You Want to KnowC. Know How Deeply to Study the MaterialD. How to Develop our Skills and KnowledgeDIts really true what people say about English politeness: its everywhere. When squeezing (挤过去) past someone in a narrow passage, people say “sorry”. When getting off a bus, English passengers say “thank you” rather than the driver. In Germany, people would never dream of doing these things. After all, squeezing past others is sometimes unavoidable, and the bus driver is only doing his job. I used to think the same way, without questioning it, until I started traveling to the British Isles, and here are some more polite ways of interacting (交往) with people in UK.People thank each other everywhere in England, all the time. When people buy something in a shop, customer and shop assistant in most cases thank each other twice or more. In Germany, it would be exceptional to hear more than one thank you in such a conversation. British students thank their lecturers when leaving the room. English employers thank their employees for doing their jobs, as opposite to Germans, who would normally think that paying their workers money is already enough.Another thing I observed during my stay was that English people rarely criticize (批评) others. Even when I was working and mistakes were pointed out to me, my employers emphasized several times but none of their explanations were intended as criticism. It has been my impression that by avoiding criticism, English people are making an effort to make others feel comfortable. This also is showed in other ways. British men still open doors for women, and British men are more likely to treat women to a meal than German men. However, I do need to point out here that this applies to English men a bit more than it would to Scottish men! Yes, the latter are a bit tightfisted.48. What is the authors attitude towards English politeness?A. He thinks it is unnecessary. B. He thinks little of it.C. He appreciates it very much. D. He thinks it goes too far.49. What can be inferred from the passage?A. German men never treat a woman to dinner.B. The author think its unnecessary to say “thank you” to the bus driver.C. In Germany, employers often say “thank you” to employees for their job.D. Germans think it is unnecessary to thank workers because payment is enough.50. We can learn from the last paragraph that Scottish men _.A. like to fight with each otherB. treat women in a polite wayC. are as generous as English menD. are unwilling to spend money for women51. The author develops the text through the method of _.A. making comparisons B. telling storiesC. giving reasons D. giving examplesEYoure standing in the dairy section at the grocery store, searching for your favorite brand. Suddenly, you catch a smell of chocolate cookies. You forget about dairy and head for the bakery (烘烤食品) section. Guess what? You just walked into an odor (气味) trap (陷阱)! The odor was cooked up by scientists in a lab.For years, scientists have been studying the special powers of smell. They found that more than our other senses, smell changes our mood and helps us remember things.So companies have begun spending thousands of dollars to scent (使充满香味) entire stores. Artificial (人造的) scents are being used to lead customers by the nose. These smells help to get people inside and put them in the mood to buy. They even make customers remember the store later, so theyll come back for more. Also, many companies have smartly made use of product smells. A company added lemon fragrance to its dish cleaner. They wanted people to think the soap contained “natural” cleaners. It worked!New uses for smells are being created every day. One bank, for example, gives customers coupons (优惠券) advertising car loans (贷款). To get people to take out a loan, bank officials hope to coat these coupons with the fresh leather smell of a new car. In Australia, telephone offices are putting sweat odor on unpaid bills. Since some people sweat when theyre scared, this smell might remind them of when they were frightened. And theyll pay the bills right away!What lies ahead for our noses? Smell scientists are working on some pretty far-out ideas. Would you believe TV sets that produce smells? Or how about scent diets? Certain food smells will fool your stomach into thinking its full. Alarm clocks will scent your bedroom with a strong pleasant smell designed to wake you up. Scientists are even working on ways to keep garbage from smelling. Researchers expect scents to help students make more sense of what theyre learning.And just think. So
