We found shes the very style were looking for to represent young peoples attitudes.” You also impressed Wang with her fluent English when they first met last year. As the hostess of an English broadcasting programme at the High School Affiliated to Renmin University, she is always praised for speaking English almost like a native speaker. “Ive built up my English by watching thousands of English DVDs since I was 10,” she explained.But for her, watching isnt enough. Last year, while in Senior 1, You met a talented boy who showed self-made DV movies at the English Corner in her school. “I thought it was so cool and I knew that I should start making my own films,” she said. So she wrote a campus story, persuaded schoolmates to star in it and then began shooting a 30-minute DV movie, all in English. “I played one of the leading roles, actually I was everything in my film. I worked on it every single day during the SARS holidays,” she recalled. The movie finally became a big hit on campus, earning You a strong reputation as a DV movie director. But this is not the only field she wants to master. Despite being a science student, she likes art, literature and fashion design very much.“There are people who can be artists, there are people who edit books, and there are people who become film producers. But I just hope to mix all the things up!” she said. “There is an old saying I believe: Chance favours only the prepared mind.”26. You Mi was chosen to be a cover of Seventeen, mainly because she _.

You might sell some to your neighbor and some to the local manager of the supermarket. But in either case, you are producing for the market. Your efforts are being directed by the market. If people stop buying tomatoes, you will stop producing them.If you take care of a sick person to earn money, you are producing for the market. If your father is a steel worker or a truck driver or a doctor or a grocer, he is producing goods or service for the market.When you spend your income, you are buying things from the market. You may spend money in stores, supermarkets, gas station and restaurants. Still you are buying from the market. When the local grocer hires you to drive the delivery truck, he is buying your labor in the labor market.The market may be something abstract. But for each person or business who is making and selling something, it is very concrete. If nobody buys your tomatoes, it wont be long before you get the message. The market is telling you something. It is telling you that you are using energies and resources in doing something the market doesnt want you to do.31.

It tells you how to grow tomatoes.D. It helps you save money.C“I swear, I didnt steal anything!” I shouted over the alarm. Obviously the security guard didnt believe me because he seized the shopping bag right out of my hand.“Do you have a receipt of this?” he asked doubtfully, putting any new back-to-school outfit (全套设备) onto the dusty floor near the mall entrance.“Of course I do,” I replied, fishing my wallet out of my coat pocket. Elsie and Monica, my two best friends, stood beside me. They were laughing their heads off!I almost tore my wallet apart for the receipt, but it had disappeared. “Let me look again,” I said nervously. Then I looked again, and again, and again! My face was getting hotter by the minute, and my heart was beating like a racehorse.Finally, I looked back at the guard and whispered, “Its not here.” The guard picked up my clothes and said, “Youll have to come with me, Miss.”When he opened the office door, I saw a man sitting behind a big metal desk. It was the manager. Then I had an idea.“May I say something?” I asked. “I can prove I didnt steal this thing.” Then I explained all about the cashier(出纳员). She said that she had bought the exact same outfit as a birthday present for her little sister. “Well just see about that,” the manager said and went off to find her. Ten minutes later, I was free!It was terrible to be unfairly accused of something! Then I remembered shouting at my sister that very morning for taking my new hair clips.Had she really taken them? I made a promise that day never to accuse someone of something without proof, and I havent. At last something good came out of my terrible experience.36.

From her experience, the author learned that _.A. you should believe in yourself in face of difficultyB. it is a terrible thing to be suspected by friendsC. you should ask for a receipt for whatever you buy D. you should not doubt others if you cant prove itDThe way people hold to the belief that a fun-filled, pain free life equals happiness actually reduces their chances of ever attaining real happiness. If fun and pleasure are equal to happiness then pain must be equal to unhappiness. But in fact, the opposite is true: more often than not things that lead to happiness involve some pain.As a result, many people avoid the very attempts that are the source of true happiness. They fear the pain inevitably(不可避免地) brought by such things as marriage, raising children, professional achievement, religious commitment, self-improvement.Ask a bachelor why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying. If he is honest he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment. For commitment is in fact quite painful. The single life is filled with fun, adventure, excitement. Marriage has such moments, but they are not its most distinguishing features.Couples with infant children are lucky to get a whole nights sleep or a three-day vacation. I dont know any parent who would choose the word fun to describe raising children. But couples who decide not to have children never know the joys of watching a child grow up or of playing with a grandchild.Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating realizations. It liberates time: now we can devote more hours to activities that can genuinely increase our happiness. It liberates money: buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless. And it liberates us from envy: we now understand that all those who are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all.41. According to the author, a bachelor resists marriage chiefly because _.A. he believes that life will be more cheerful if he remains singleB. he finds more fun in dating than in marriageC. he fears it will put an end to all his fun adventure and excitement D. he is unwilling to take on family responsibilities42. Raising children, in the authors opinion is _.A. a moral duty B. a rewarding task C. a thankless job D. a source of inevitable pain43. From the last paragraph, we learn that envy sometimes stems from _.A. hatred B. prejudice C. misunderstanding D. ignorance44. To understand what true happiness is one must _.A. have as much fun as possible during ones lifetime B. be able to distinguish happiness from fun C. make every effort to liberate oneself from pain D. put up with pain under all circumstances45. What is the author trying to tell us?A. Attaining happiness is necessary for everyone.B. It is important to make commitments. C. Happiness often goes hand in hand with pain. D. It is pain that leads to happiness.第二节 信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。首先，请阅读下列警方通报查找人员的信息：A.
