Good morning, lady, the man said in a low voice, I dont think you wish to die here!“What do you want?” Agatha asked.“Your earrings. Take them off!”Agatha suddenly had a bright idea. She tried to cover her necklace with the collar(衣领）of her coat while she used the other hand to take off both of her earrings and then she quickly threw them on the ground.“Take them and let me go,” she said. The robber saw that the girl didnt care for the earrings at all, only trying to protect the necklace. He thought the necklace would cost more, so he said, Give me your necklace. Oh, sir. Its not worth much. Please let me keep it.Stop talking rubbish. Quick!With shaky hands, Agatha took off her necklace. As soon as the robber disappeared, she picked up her earrings and ran as fast as she could to one of herfriends.

Suddenly, the two were quiet. They sat playing games and watching videos, and we _76_with our conversation.After our meal, as we put the iPads back into their magic bag, my sister felt a bit_77_.“ I dont want to give them the iPads at the dinner table, but if it keeps them busy for an hour so we can eat in peace, and_78_, not disturb other people in the restaurant, I often just give it to them, she told me. Then she asked: Do you think its bad for them? I do worry that it is making them think its OK to use electronics at the dinner table in the future.I did not have an answer, and_79_ some people might have opinions,no one has a true scientific understanding of what the future might be for a generation raised on screens. Dr. Gary Small, director of the Longevity Center says we do know that the brain is highly sensitive to stimuli (刺激)，like iPads and smartphone screen, and if people spend too much time with one technology, and less time acting together with people like parents at the dinner table, that could make it difficult to develop their communicative skills.We really dont know the full neurological ( 神经学上的） effects of these technologies yet.

Does Fathers Day cause anxiety (紧张)？ Does it make you wish you had a better relationship with your own fatheror with your own children? Was your father your friend? Your e 81 ? Or was he just a man doing his best?Some men are excellent dads but they are not the ones youll see on posters for Fathers Day: they are not the smiling men full of energy, but i 82 , they are the tired and underpaid (薪水不高的）men.My good father was one of those exhausted men. He spent 12 hours working hard every day w 83 complaint so that we could live in a house and not in an apartment. I never thought he would show up at school plays I was in or attend the award events.Although my father didnt feel it necessary to be p 84 to show his support, he encouraged me whole-heartedly. I a 85 his encouragement in the way he offered it and learned to play in public; it wasnt his applause (掌声）I was looking for, after all, because I knew I already had it.

To my great father, I want to say Thank you for what youve given us and all youve done.”D. Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题）：（12 分）Almost every woman likes going shopping. Personally speaking, I enjoy shopping in the U.K., even if its just window shopping. The sales service is the key reason why I like shopping in the U.K. much more than shopping in China. Every brand has its own official website where customers can see products and order directly online, so the products can be sent home directly. As for those who enjoy shopping in real stores, shopping experiences are rather free and open. Different from that in China, most stores do not provide personal shop assistants unless you ask one of the staff about a specific question. It is never necessary to tell them to leave you alone. I especially like this kind of free atmosphere in which I can walk slowly, pick whatever I want and decide which is to take without any personal suggestions from shop assistants. Although sometimes, store staff help customers to fetch shoes or clothes of a specific size or color, they never exaggerate (夸大）their opinions on it, as their task is to provide service but not to provide comments. Besides, each brand has a refund policy (退款政策).The policy may vary from one another, but a cooling-off period of 14 to 28 days is provided for customers to think twice about whether they really want the products they bought. Within the cooling-off period, customers can easily get full refund or exchange if they can provide a valid receipt (有效发票）and unused products with all the tags. It encourages customers to buy products more often and increases sales. As for customers, it is also good, for people can have a chance to get back their money which was spent on unwanted clothes.The U.K. is a modern country with traditions. While it says yes to the fast pace of modern fashion industry, it also provides 93 for its tourists and customers. It fully deserves the title of “Shopping Paradise”.88. What is the most important reason why the writer likes shopping in the U.K.?(此题1 分）89. In the writers opinion, why are shopping experiences free and open in the U.K.?90. What does the underlined word “them
