I didn’t think there would be any difficulty in getting it mended ,as there are a whole lot of antique（古董）shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception（接待）. I was quite wrong. The man wouldn't oven look at my chair.‎ ‎　　The second shop, though slightly(轻微) more polite, was just the same, and the third and the fourth --- so I decided that my approach must be wrong.‎ ‎　　I went into the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper,“Would you like to buy a chair?” He looked it over carefully and said,“Yes, not a bad chair. How much do you want for it, sir?” “Twenty pounds,”I said. “OK, ”he said, “I’ll give you twenty pounds.”“It ‘s got a slightly broken leg,”I said. “Yes, I saw that, it's nothing.”‎ ‎　　Everything was going according to the plan and I was getting excited. “What will you do with it?”I asked. “Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done.” “I'll buy it,”I said. “What do you mean？ You’ve just sold it to me,”he said. “Yes, I know but I’ve changed my mind. I'm sorry, I'll give you twenty-seven pounds for it. ”“Your must be crazy,”he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped. “I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair.”“You’re right,”I said. “And what would you have done if I had walked in and said,” Would you mend this chair for me?　I wouldn't have agreed to do it,” he said. “We don’t do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But I’ll mend this for you, shall we say for a fiver?”He was a very nice man and was greatly amused（感到有趣）by the whole thing.‎ ‎1．We can learn from the text that in the first shop the writer ________.‎ ‎　　A. was rather impolite 　 　B. was warmly received ‎　　C. asked the shopkeeper to buy his chair D. asked the shopkeeper to repair his chair ‎2．The expression “the penny dropped” in the last paragraph means the shopkeeper ________.‎ ‎　　A. changed his mind　　　　　　　 B. accepted the offer ‎　　C. saw the writer’s purpose　　　　　D. decided to help the writer ‎3．How much did the writer pay?‎ ‎　　A. ￡ 5.　　　　B. ￡ 7.　　　　 C. ￡ 20.　　　　D. ￡ 27.‎ ‎4．From the text, we can learn that the writer was ________ ‎ A. hardest　　　　B. careful　　　　C. smart　　　　 D. funny B ‎　　Life on land probably began about 430 million years ago, though it has existed(存在) in the water for perhaps as much as 3,000 million years. When we think of the first thing on land, we probably think of strange animals coming out of the oceans, but in fact no animals could have been living if plants had not been on land first. Plants had to be on land before animals arrived. They supplied the first land animals with the surrounding and food necessity(需要), since they, the plants, are the only form of life that is able to get and store energy.‎ ‎　　The first plants to exist out of the water were probably certain kinds of algae（海藻）which were followed by other plants that grew close to the ground and needed water in which to reproduce(繁殖). Once the move to land had been made, however, evolution（进化）took place quickly. By the end of 100 million years, plants had developed their roots（根）, and some had got tree -like forms since height was very important in gaining sunlight. About 300 million years ago, much of the world was covered with forests of huge trees. In most ways they were like modern trees. They had roots, leaves, wood, but mostly they had not developed seeds.‎ ‎5．The main idea of the first paragraph is ________.‎ ‎　　A. life on land probably began 430 years ago ‎　　B. the first animal on land came from oceans ‎　　C. there wouldn't be animals without plants ‎　　D. plants are the only form of life that is able to get and store energy ‎6．Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?‎ ‎　　A. Algae has existed for more than 430 million years.‎ ‎　　B. It is impossible that algae might be the earliest plant on land.‎ ‎　　C. Plants get food from animals in the oceans.‎ ‎　　D. Evolution began after animals appeared on land.‎ ‎7．Plants with roots appeared about ________ million years ago.‎ ‎　　A. 430　　　　　B. 300　　　　　 C. 330　　　　　 D. 100‎ ‎8．According to the passage, ________ appeared earlier than ________.‎ ‎　　A. apples; oranges　　　　　　　　 B. oranges; apples C. oranges; roses　　　　　　　　　D. algae; wheat C ‎　　More surprising, perhaps, than the current difficulties of traditional marriage is the fact that marriage itself is alive and thriving（旺盛的）. As Skolnich notes, Americans are a marrying people: relative to Europeans, more of us marry and we marry at a younger age. Moreover, after a decline（衰退）in the early 1970s, the rate of marriage in the United States is now increasing. Even the divorce（离婚）rate needs to be taken in this pro-marriage context(背景): about 80 percent of the divorced remarry. Thus, marriage remains by far the preferred way of life for most of the people in our society.‎ ‎　　What has changed more than marriage is the nuclear family. Twenty-five years ago, the typical American family consisted of(由…组成) the husband, the wife, and two or three children. Now, there are many marriages in which couples have decided not to have any children, and there are many marriages where at least some of the children are from the wife’s previous(先前的) marriage, or the husband’s, or both. Sometimes these children spend all of their time with one parent from the former marriage; sometimes they are shared between the two former spouses （配偶）．‎ ‎　　Thus, one can find every type of tamely arrangement. There are marriages without children; marriages with children from only the present marriages; marriages with “full - time” children from both the present and former marriages; marriages with“full- time”children from the present marriage and“part-time”children from former marriages. There are stepfathers, stepmothers, half-brothers and half-sisters. It is not all that unusual for a child to have four parents and eight grandparents! These are big changes from the traditional nuclear family. But even so, even in the midst of all this, there remains one constant(常量): most Americans spend most of their adult lives married.‎ ‎9．By calling Americans a marrying people the writer means that ________.‎ ‎　　A. Americans are more traditional than Europeans ‎　　B. Americans expect more out of marriage than Europeans ‎　　C. there are more married couples in the USA than in Europe ‎　　D. more of Americans, as compared with Europeans, prefer marriage and they accept it at a younger age ‎10．Divorced Americans ________ .‎ ‎　　A. prefer the way they live ‎　　B. will most likely remarry ‎　　C. have lost interest in marriage ‎　　D. are the majority of people in the society ‎11．Which of the following can be presented as the picture of today’s American families？‎ ‎　　A. Rich types of family arrangements have become socially acceptable.‎ ‎　　B. A typical American family consists of only a husband and a wife.‎ ‎　　C. Americans prefer to have more kids than before.‎ ‎　　D. There are no nuclear families any more.‎ ‎12．Though great changes have taken place in the structure of American families, ________ .‎ ‎　　A. the majority of Americans still have faith in marriage ‎　　B. the functions of marriage remain unchanged ‎　　C. most Americans prefer a second marriage D. most Americans prefer to be single D ‎　　Many people believe the glare（炫目的光）from snow causes snow-blindness. Yet, with dark glasses or not, they find themselves suffering from headaches and watering eyes, and even snow-blindness ,when exposed to(暴露于) several hours of“snow light”.‎ ‎　　The United States army has now determined that glare from snow does not cause snow-blindness in troops in a snow-covered country. Rather, a man’s eyes frequently find nothing to focus on（聚集）in a broad space of snow-covered without-grass land. So his gaze( 注视) continually (持续地) moves and jumps back and forth over the entire landscape(景象) in search of something to look at. Finding something, hour after hour, the eyes never stop searching and the eyeballs become tired and the eye muscles ache. Nature makes up for this discomfort(不适) by producing more and more fluid （流 体）which covers the eyeball. The fluid covers the eyeball in increasing quantity (量)until it makes eyes difficult to see clearly, and the result is total, even though for a short time, snow-blindness.‎ ‎　　Experiments led the Army to a simple method of overcoming this problem. Scouts（侦察兵）ahead of the troops are trained to shake snow from evergreen bushes, creating a dotted line as they cross completely snow-covered landscape. Even the scouts themselves throw lightweight, dark- colored objects ahead on which they can focus too. The men following can then see something. Their gaze is arrested. Their eyes focus on a bush and having found something to see, stop searching the snow-blanketed landscape. By focusing their attention on one object at a time. the men can cross the snow without becoming hopelessly snow-blind or lost. In this way the problem of crossing a continuous white land is overcome.‎ ‎13．To prevent snow-blindness caused by the strong light from snow, wearing glasses or not ________.‎ ‎　　A. depends on whether the snow is white enough ‎　　B. makes no difference ‎　　C. makes much difference ‎　　D. depends on whether the snow is thick ‎14．When the eyes are tired, tears flow out ________.‎ ‎　　A. to clear the vision ‎　　B. to make the eyes stop searching ‎　　C. to make the vision unclear ‎　　D. to produce more and more liquid ‎15．Snow-blindness can be avoided ________.‎ ‎　　A. by moving one’s gaze back and forth ‎　　B. by walking ahead and keeping looking around ‎　　C. by making up for the discomfort of one’s eyes ‎　　D. by providing the eyes with something to focus on III.完形填空 本题共15小题，每小题2分 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从各题所给的A、B、C和D项中选出最佳选项。‎ Last night, on my way home I stopped because of being attracted by some hamburgers at a fast food restaurant.

One of the main reasons is that people are living a busy life without taking enough exercise and suffer lots of stress. Besides, most of them have to stay up late at night with so little time to rest, making their lives quite irregular. Worse still, a number of these people have got into the habit of smoking and drinking too much. To change this, they should form a good living habit by taking more physical exercise and keeping away from cigarettes and alcohol.‎
