We immediately rushed out to a store, and I bought a nice pink dress with a jacket. The dress was a little tight, but I had a month to go before the June 30 wedding and I would lose a few pounds.June 29 came and, of course, I hadnt lost a single pound; in fact I had gained two. But I figured a nice new girdle (紧身内衣)would cure everything. So on our way out of the city we stopped once again at the store. I ran in and told the clerk I needed a large-size girdle. The shop assistant found the box with the described girdle marked LG, and asked if I would like to try it on. “Oh, no, a large will fit just right. I neednt try it on.”The next morning was rather hot, so I waited to get dressed until about 45 minutes before time to go. I opened the box only to find a new girdle in a small size. Since it was too late to find another one and the dress wouldnt fit right without a girdle, a fight broke out in the hotel room between me and the girdle. Have you ever tried to shake 20 pounds of potatoes into a five-pound bag? Thats it. Finally my husband, laughing like crazy, got hold of each side and shook me down into it. At once I put on the pink dress, which didnt match my red face well, and was ready to go.Finally we got to the church. I heard one of the people say that they were having a High Mass. I turned to my husband and asked, What is a High Mass? He shrugged his shoulders. Unfortunately, I learned that this particular mass would last one hour, twenty-two minutes and eight and one half secondsthe priest (神父) was going to bless everything except my girdle.1The author most probably bought a nice pink dress with a jacket_.A. 4 weeks later B. 4 weeks earlierC. a fortnight earlier D. a fortnight later2What had the author wanted to do with the tight dress ?A.

A Fierce FightB “Keep your eyes on the ball.” That is good advice when you are on the playing field, and good advice for everyday life. “Keep your mind on whats important,” is the way Id put it. But people are funny. They think too much about the details.I had a secretary once. She was very hardworking. I ran a school and people used to call up to enroll（注册，登记） for courses. Berry used to get angry at the phone. “If they keep on ringing, Ill never get my typing done!” shed shout.People just dont see the big picture. One evening, after leaving work, I was sitting next to a man on the train. I was feeling tired. My eyes fell on the paper he had spread out in front of him. You know how you feel to read over someones shoulder?I read the page and leaned back. I guessed I was waiting for him to turn it. After a while, I realizedhe wasnt turning the page. He just kept on reading.Now if you knew the page he was reading, youd know that there werent many words on the page to read anyway. The layout（布局，设计） was mostly pictures. So I turned to the man and said,” You know, you really read very slowly.”“What do you mean?” he asked. “Well,” I told him, “I read the page in about a minute, and you have taken about ten. And you are still reading. You know,” I went on “If you learned to read faster, you could get more reading done.” He remained silent for a minute or two. “If I read too fast, my paper wouldnt last me to my station.”5The writer wasnt satisfied with his secretary because _.A. she didnt put first thing first B. she was too busyC. she was easy to get angry D. she couldnt finish her work on time6The train rider read newspaper _.A. to take in information B. to enjoy picturesC. to save time D. to kill time7The writer thinks that people seem to need a sense of _.A. what to read first B. how to read fastC. what is important D. what is funny8The passage is mainly about the writers opinion on peoples _.A. judgment B. work C. life D. habitsCSteve and Yaser first met in their chemistry class at an American university. Yaser was an international student from Jordan. He was excited to get to know an American. He wanted to learn more about American culture. Yaser hoped that he and Steve would bee good friends. At first, Steve seemed very friendly. He always greeted Yaser warmly before class. Sometimes he offered to study with Yaser. He even invited Yaser to have lunch with him.But after the term was over, Steve seemed more distant. The two former classmates didnt see each other very much at school. One day Yaser decided to call Steve. Steve didnt seem very interested in talking to him. Yaser was hurt by Steves change of attitude. “Steve said we were friends,” Yaser plained. “And I thought friends were friends forever.” Yaser is a little confused.He is an outsider(局外人) to American culture. He doesnt understand the way Americans view friendship. Americans use the word “friend” in a very general way. They may call both casual acquaintances(熟人) and close panions(伙伴) “friends”. Americans have school friends, work friends, sports friends and neighborhood friends. These friendships are based on mon interests.American society changes rapidly. Studies show that one out of five American families moves every year. American friendships develop quickly, and they may change just as quickly. People from the United States may at first seem friendly. Americans often chat easily with strangers. They exchange information about their families, hobbies and work.

DTell a story and tell it well, and you may open wide the eyes of a child, open up lines of munication in a business, or even open peoples mind to another culture or race.People in many places are digging up the old folk stories and the messages in them. For example, most American storytellers get their tales from a wide variety of sources, cultures, and times. They regard storytelling not only as a useful tool in child education, but also as a meaningful activity that helps adults understand themselves as well as those whose culture may be very different from their own.“Most local stories are based on a larger theme（主题）,” American storyteller Opalanga Pugh says, “Cinderella, or the central idea of a good child protected by her goodness, appears in various forms in almost every culture of the world.”Working with students in schools, Pugh helps them understand their own cultures and the general messages of the stories. She works with prisoners too, helping them knowing who they are by telling stories that her listeners can write, direct, and act in their own lives. If they dont like the story they are living, they can rewrite the story. Pugh also works to help open up lines of munication between managers and workers. “For every advance in business,” she says, “there is a greater need for munication”. Storytelling can have a great effect on either side of the manager-worker relationship, she says.Pugh spent several years in Nigeria, where she learned how closely storytelling was linked to the everyday life of the people there. “The benefits of storytelling are found everywhere,” she says.“I learned how people used stories to spread their culture,” she says, “What I do is to focus on the value of the stories that people can translate into their own daily world of affairs. We are all storytellers. We all have a story to tell. We tell everybodys story.”13What do we learn about American storyteller from Paragraph 2?A. They share the same way of storytelling.B. They prefer to tell the stories from other cultures.C. They learn their stories from the American natives.D. They find storytelling useful for both children and adults.14The underlined sentence (Paragraph 4) suggests that prisoners can _.A. start a new lifeB. settle down in another placeC. direct filmsD. bee good actors15Pugh has practiced storytelling with _ groups of people.A. 2 B. 3 C. 4 D. 5第二节 (共5小题 ;每小题 2分 ,满分10分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项（选项中有两项为多余选项），并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 11 People traveled in search of food and shelter or in order to flee from their enemies.
