Mr. Smith was the manager of a hotel in Springfield. One weekend all of the hotels in the city were full because there was a large meeting. Late in the evening three men came into the hotel and asked for rooms. Mr. Smith explained that because of the meeting, there were no rooms ready for use. The men were very unhappy because they had no place to stay in.
Mr. Smith wanted to help them. He remembered that Room 414, a very small room, was empty. He asked them if they would share a room. The three men agreed. Mr. Smith told them that the room would cost $30: $10 for each. Each of them gave Mr. Smith $10, and they went up to the room.
Mr. Smith soon began to feel sorry. “Thirty dollars is too much for that small room,” he thought. He called one of his men over and said, “Here is $ 5. Bring it to the man in Room 414. I’ve asked too much money for their room.”
The worker took the money from his manager. While he was on his way to Room 414, he started to think, “How can I divide(分)$5 Well, I’ll give each of them only $1 and I keep $2.

Learners of English, especially self-taught learners may have trouble in understanding speeches by native speakers. The following ways might help improve their listening ability.
First of all, do things step by step. It is not good to listen to something beyond your level. Better choose a suitable course and start with the first book. Go on to the second book only after you are sure you understand the first one.
Secondly, stick to(坚持) one course of study. Don’t change books often. Never let your attention be attracted(吸引) by another course just because it seems to be more “fashionable”.
Thirdly, listen to the English news program over the radio from time to time. Better go through the news stories in the Chinese-language newspaper first. That will make it easy for you to understand the English news on the radio.

We spent a day in the country, picking wild flowers. With the car full of flowers we were going home. On our way back my wife noticed a cupboard outside a furniture shop(家具店). It was tall and narrow. “Buy it,” my wife said at once. “We’ll carry it home on the roof rack. I’ve always wanted one like that.”
What could I do Ten minutes later I was £20 poorer; and the cupboard was tied on the roof rack(车顶行李架). It was six feet long and eighteen inches square, quite heavy too.
In the gathering darkness I drove slowly. Other drivers seemed unusually polite that evening. The police even stopped traffic to let us through. Carrying furniture was a good idea.
After a time my wife said, “There’s a long line of cars behind. Why don’t they overtake, I wonder ” In fact a police car did overtake. The two officers inside looked at us seriously as they passed. But then, with great kindness, they led us through the rush hour traffic. The police car stopped at our village church. One of the officers came to me.
“Right, sir,” he said. “Do you need any more help ”
I was a bit puzzled. “Thanks, officer,” I said. “You have been very kind. I was just on the road.” He was staring at our car, first at the flowers, then at the cupboard. “Well, well,” he said, laughing. “It’s a cupboard you’ve got there! We thought it was something else.”
My wife began to laugh. The truth hit me like a stone between the eyes. I smiled at the officer. “Yes, it’s a cupboard, but thanks again.” I drove home as fast as I could.

Most people have had a dog or wanted one as their companion at some time in their lives. If you are thinking of buying a dog, however, you should first decide what sort(种类、类型) of companion you need and whether the dog is likely to be happy in the surroundings(环境) you can provide. Specialists’ advice is available to help you choose the most suitable(合适的) breed of dog. But in part, the decision depends on common sense. Most breeds were originally developed to perform specific tasks. Therefore, if you want a dog to protect you or your house, for example, you should choose one that has the right size and characteristics(特征/色/点). You must also be ready to devote a lot of time to training the dog when it is young and giving it the exercise it needs throughout its life. Dogs are demanding pets, while cats are connected with the house and so they are satisfied if their place is safe. A dog is connected with its master and wants him to show proof of his affection (感情).
The best time to buy a baby dog is when it is between 6 and 8 weeks old so that it can transfer(转移) its affection from its mother to its master. If baby dogs have not established(建立) a relationship(关系)with the human being until they are over eight months old, their strong relationship will always be with dogs. They are likely to be too shy when they are brought out into the world to become good pets.
32. According to the passage, what should be considered first in buying a dog
A. The age of the dog. B. The size and characteristics of the dog.
C. Whether the dog will get used to the environment(环境).
D. Whether the dog can set up a good relationship with human beings.
33. Why is it advised to buy a baby dog when it is between 6 and 8 weeks old
A. Because it can keep a strong relationship with other dogs forever.
B. Because it is less likely to be familiar with the surroundings.
C. Because it’s easier for it to establish a relationship with its mother.
D. Because it’s easier for it to form a relationship with its master.
34. The underlined word “breed” in the first paragraph probably means “________”.
A. sort B. price C. age D. color
35. Which of the following is the best title for the passage
A. The proper time to buy a dog B. Tips on raising(养) a dog
C. The sort of companion you need D. Dogs are better pets than cats
