What inspired your collection?E. Any upcoming project youd like to share with us?F. What do you think fashion needs more of right now?Interview with Fashion Designer Adolfo Sanchez76. _This season I wanted to create a dark collection which was wearable for women from east to west. Initially it began with the idea of lace (花边) and then after bringing the concept of a Victorian Goth collection together the lace was only used as a decoration. I always love combining soft and hard details together for example we had dresses with a leather bustier(紧身衣) inspired from chiffon (雪纺绸) skirts. Wool and fur were some of the other textiles that played a big role in this collection. Overall, the collection looks soft and feminine (娇柔旳) .77. _The idea of seeing your vision come to life when you see the complete line, as well as being able to experience the process of growth as an unknown designer to being recognized for your work and aesthetic(美学观念). Its a very rewarding feeling professionally and personally to see the transformation (转变) occur.78. _More creativity. I feel like the main focus is on wearability (耐穿性), which I understand is definitely extremely important (its the beneficial part of the industry). However, the art aspect should not be lost in the process. At the end of the day we are not only fulfilling a utilitarian (功利旳) function, we should make full use of the unique artists imagination that marks the current movements and influences of our culture. We are creating something that should arouse peoples curiosity.79. _Patience, technique, passion, perseverance, and creativity with an understanding of wear ability. I also think that in order to be a designer you should have the knowledge of how to construct a dress from scratch (草稿). You should know the process that begins with the idea in your mind to the finished product that is ready for a client to wear.80._Im happy to say that I will be showing and having a runway presentation in N.Y. this upcoming September; details should be announced soon. The trailer to my first film that I styled and custom created for will be out this summer. For the time being this is all I can really say as the rest is still in the development phase (阶段) but believe me when I tell you that there is so much more to come.7680 DAFCE 2013届（2012学年）上海市高三英语一模选标题10（静安）A. Fathers are easier to satisfy on their special date.B. Greeting cards are the most popular gifts for Dads.C. People traced the origin oi Fathers Day.D. Fathers have higher expectations for their special date.E. New neckties are popular presents on Fathers Day.F. People tend to spend more on Mothers Day than on Fathers Day.76.On Fathers Day 2009, which falls on Sunday, June 21, millions of dads across the US will open boxes, peel back tissue paper, and break into a smile as they admire their new necktie 一 still among the most popular Fathers Day gifts.77.That smile is almost certainly genuine, according to psychology lecturer Nicole Gilbert Cote at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst. Her research shows that even though dads get less attention on fathers day than moms do on Mothers Day, dads are more likely to be satisfied on their special date. Part of the reason seems to be that moms expect to be relieved of stereotypical chores such as cooking and cleaning up on Mothers Day, but that doesnt always happen. Dads didnt have that role in the family. “The bar is low, and dad is OK with that,” Gilbert Cote said, adding that the way families even those that espouse egalitarian ideal celebrate the two holidays reinforces such stereotypes.78. Fathers low expectation means that shoppers spend less money on them than they do on moms, according to the National Retail Federation, a Washington, D.C.-based trade group. The stumbling global economy, however, does mean shoppers are cutting back. In 2008, Fathers Day cost individual consumers $94.54, and Mothers Day cost $138.36. But this year, the retail group experts gift givers to spend an average of US$90, on Fathers Day. For moms, shoppers shelled out “dad an average of US$123.89. “Dad is a little more laid-back and easier to shop for,” said federation spokesperson Kathy Grannis. “His gifts usually range from a simple tie for work to a new spatula for the grill, all of which can make dad very happy.” Mothers Day gifts tend to be more luxurious jewels, flowers, a trip to the spa, and dinner at a restaurant, for example.79. The most popular gift for Dads and often the only one hell got is a greeting card. All told, an estimated 110 million cards are sent on Fathers Day, according to the greeting card company Hallmark. This makes Fathers Day the fourth largest card sending holiday in the US, behind Mothers Day (162 million), Valentines Day (192 million), and Christmas (2.1 billion). Fifty percent of Fathers Day cards are purchased for dads and another 20 percent for husbands. The remaining 30 percent fall into a broad “other” category, according to Deidre Mize, a Hallmark spokesperson. “It might be someone who served as a father role. Or it could be a stepdad,” she said. The Fathers Day card business, according to the retail federation, will ring up about $780 million this year.80.Despite all the cards given on fathers day, hallmark didnt invent the holiday, Mize said. Rather, fathers day traced its origins to Spokane, Washington, where Sonora Smart-Dodd was one of six children being raised by a single dad. Inspired by a mothers day sermon she heard at church, she wanted to honor her father. So, she encouraged local churches to institute the first fathers day observance in 1909. The idea caught on, and hallmark started printing fathers day cards in 1920s, Mize said. In 1972, us President Richard Nixon formally declared fathers day as the third Sunday in June.7680 EAFBC 2013届（2012学年）上海市高三英语一模选标题11（金山）A. Be well-organized. B. Close with a Q & A. C. Dont be contradictory . D. Bring it to a specific end. E. Speak slowly and pause. F. Drop unnecessary words. Speaking to a group can be difficult, but listening to a bad speech is truly a tiresome taskespecially when the speaker is confusing. Dont want to confuse your audience? Follow these suggestions: 76. _When it comes to understanding new information, the human brain needs a little time. First, we hear the words; then, we compare the new information to what we already know. If the two are different, we need to pause and think. But a breathless speaker never stops to let us think about what he or she is saying and risks confusing us. Slow it. 77. _Sometimes we all start a sentence one way and then switch directions, which is very difficult to follow. When you confuse your listeners with opposing information, you leave the audience wondering what part of the information is right and what part they should remember. Instead of relying and keeping correcting yourself, work to get the facts clear and straight. 78. _Jumping from point to point as it comes to your mind puts the onus (责任）on your listeners to make up for your lack of organization. And its confusing for them to listen, reorganize, and figure out what youre saying all at once. But going smoothly from one point to the next helps them understand information more easily. You can arrange things from beginning to end, small to large, top to bottom or by some other order. Just be sure to organize. 79. _Repeated use of um, ah, like, you know and some other useless noises can drive an audience crazy. It makes the speaker sound uncertain and unprepared, and it can leave listeners so annoyed that they cant pay attention. Recently I attended a speech that was marked by so many ums that audience members were rolling their eyes. Was anybody grasping the intended message? Um, probably not. 80. _Many speakers finish up their speeches with question-and-answer (Q & A) sessions, but some let the Q & A go on without a clear end. The audience is often left confused about whether the meeting is over and when they can get up and leave. Do your listeners a favour by setting a time limit on questions, and close your speech with a specific signaleven if its something simple like, “If you have any more questions, you know where to reach me.” Or even more to the point, conclude your speech with “Thanks for your time. ”76 80 ECAFD 2013届（2012学年）上海市高三英语一模选标题12（嘉定）A. Suggestions for happinessB. The correlation of love with happinessC. The role of education and income in ones happinessD. The study of happinessE. The chief factors of happinessF. The ideal happy occasions76. According to recent polls sixty to seventy percent of Americans consider themselves to be moderately happy and one in twenty persons feels very unhappy. Psychologists have been studying the factors that contribute to happiness. It is not predictable whether a person in an apparently ideal situation is necessarily happy. The ideal situation may have little to do with his actual feelings.77. A good education and income are usually considered necessary for happiness. Though both may contribute, they are only chief factors if the person is seriously undereducated or actually suffering from lack of physical needs.78. The rich are not likely to be happier than the middle-income group or even than those with very low incomes. People with college education are somewhat happier than those who do not graduate from high school, and it is believed that this is mainly because they have more opportunities to control their lives. Yet people with a high income and a college education may be less happy than those with the same income and no college education.79.Poor health does not rule out happiness except for the severely weakened or these in pain. Learning to cope with a health problem can contribute to happiness. Those with a good sex life are happier in general, but those who have a loving affectionate relationship are happier than those who rely on sex alone. Love has a higher correlation with happiness than any other factor.80. It should be noted that people quickly get used to what they have, and they are happiest when they feel they are increasing their level no matter where it stands at a given time. Children whose parents were happily married have happier childhood but are not necessarily happier adults. The best formula for happiness is to be able to develop the ability to tolerate frustration, to have a personal involvement and commitment, and to develop self-confidence and self-respect. 76-80 DECBA 一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一
