阅读下面的短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项。
A
One fine afternoon I was walking along the Fifth Street, when I remembered that it was necessary to buy a pair of socks. Why I wished to buy only one pair was unimportant. I turned into the first sock shop that caught my eye, and a boy clerk who could not have been more than seventeen years old came forward, “What can I do for you, sir？”“I wish to buy a pair of socks.” His eyes shone. There was a note of excitement in his voice，“Did you know that you had come into the finest place in the world to buy socks？”I had no idea of that, as my entrance had been accidental. “Come with me，”said the boy, eagerly. I followed him to the back of the shop, and he began to pull down from the shelves box after box showing their contents for my choice.
“Hold on, lad, I am going to buy only one pair！”“I know that，”said he, “but I want you to see how beautiful these are. Aren't they wonderful？” There was on his face an expression of seriousness and pride and delight as if he were showing to me the secrets of his religion. I became far more interested in him than in the socks. I looked at him in amazement. “My friend，”said I, “if you can keep this up, if this is not merely from having a new job, if you can keep up this high spirits and excitement day after day, in ten years you will own every sock in the United States.”
36．What did the writer want to buy one fine afternoon

So, you have to give a speech—and you're terrified. You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you stumble over words, you talk too long, and you bore your audience. Later you think, “Thank goodness, it's over. I'm just not good at public speaking. I hope I never have to do that again.”
Cheer up! It doesn't have to be that bad. Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making. First of all, it is important to plan. Do your homework. Find out everything you can about your subject. And, at the same time, find out as much as you can about your audience. Who are they What do they know about your subject Do they have a common interest Why are they coming to hear you speak Put yourself in their shoes as you prepare your speech.
Ask yourself the purpose of your speech. What is the occasion Why are you speaking Are you introducing another speaker Moderating(主持)a discussion Giving a lecture Convincing someone There are many possible speaking roles, and each one has its own special characteristics. Make sure you know into which category you fit. Don't spoil your speech by confusing one speaking role with another.
Let us suppose that you have been asked to introduce the main speaker at a conference. First, find out the most important and interesting things about the speaker. Then, summarize the information in a few remarks. It is all right to tell a joke or an anecdote(趣闻)if it is in good taste and will not embarrass the speaker. And, most important, be brief. Remember, you are not the main speaker; you are introducing the main speaker.
If you are a moderator, you should begin by giving a quick introduction of the people on the panel. After that, you should try to keep the discussion running smoothly, and you should try to focus on the connections between speakers. Keep yourself in the background. Don't talk too much, and don't interrupt the panelists. Be tactful and be considerate.
If you are giving a lecture or explaining an idea, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of time doing your research. Then spend plenty of time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible, and use pictures, charts, and graphs if they will help you make your points more clearly. Never forget your audience. Don't talk over their heads, and don't talk down to them. Treat your audience with respect. They will appreciate your thoughtfulness.
If you are trying to sell something, you will need to convince your audience. Do you want them to vote for candidate A Are you offering them a new, improved toothbrush This kind of speech is usually dramatic, but here too, you must do your research and know your facts.
When you are making your speech, try to relax, speak slowly and clearly and look at people in your audience. Use simple vocabulary and expressions whenever possible. Pause for a few seconds now and then to give your audience a chance to think about what you have said. Make sure that everyone in the room can hear you. If it is a large room or an auditorium, you will probably have to use a microphone.
Just remember: Be prepared. Know your subject, your audience, and the occasion. Be brief. Say what you have to say and then stop. And be yourself. Let your personality come through so that you make person to person contact with your audience.
If you follow these simple steps, you'll see that you don't have to be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches! You're not convinced yet Give it a try and see what happens.

EDGEWOOD Every morning at Dixie Heights High School, customers pour into a special experiment: the district's first coffee shop run mostly by students with special learning needs.
Well before classes start, students and teachers order Lattes, Cappuccinos and Hot Chocolates. Then, during the first period, teachers call in orders on their room phones, and students make deliveries.
By closing time at 9?20 a．m., the shop usually sells 90 drinks.
“Whoever made the chi tea, Ms. Schatzman says it was good，”Christy McKinley, a second year student, announced recently, after hanging up with the teacher.
The shop is called the Dixie PIT, which stands for Power in Transition. Although some of the students are not disabled, many are, and the PIT helps them prepare for life after high school.
They learn not only how to run a coffee shop but also how to deal with affairs. They keep a timecard and receive paychecks, which they keep in check registers.
Special education teachers Kim Chevalier and Sue Casey introduced the Dixie PIT from a similar program at Kennesaw Mountain High School in Georgia.
Not that it was easy. Chevalier's first problem to overcome was product related. Should schools be selling coffee What about sugar content
Kenton Country Food Service Director Ginger Gray helped. She made sure all the drinks, which use non fat milk, fell within nutrition(营养) guidelines.
The whole school has joined in to help.
Teachers agreed to give up their lounge (体息室) in the mornings. Art students painted the name of the shop on the wall. Business students designed the paychecks. The basketball team helped pay for cups.
44．What is the text mainly about
A．A best selling coffee.
B．A special educational program.
C．Government support for schools.
D．A new type of teacher student relationship.
45．The Dixie PIT program was introduced in order to ________.

A．She met her in the shop.
B．She heard her telling others.

D
Beauty has always been regarded as something praise worthy. Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier and healthier, have better marriages and have more respectable jobs. Even judges are softer on attractive defendants(被告). But in the executive(主管)circle, beauty can become a liability.
While attractiveness is a positive factor of a man on his way up the executive ladder, it is harmful to a woman.
Handsome male executives were considered as having more honesty than plainer men; effort and ability were thought to lead to their success.
Attractive female executives were considered to have less honesty than unattractive ones; their successes were connected not with ability but with factors, such as luck. All unattractive women executives were thought to have more honesty and to be more capable than the attractive female executives. Interestingly though, the rise of the unattractive overnight successes was connected more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of the attractive overnight successes.
Why are attractive women not thought to be able An attractive woman is considered to be more feminine and an attractive man more manly than the less attractive ones. Thus, an attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs, but an attractive woman in a traditionally manly position appears to lack the “manly” qualities required.
This is true even in politics. “When the only clue is how he or she looks, people treat men and women differently.” says Anne Bowman, who recently published a study on the effects of attractiveness on political candidates(候选人). She asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs, one of men and one of women, in order of attractiveness. The students were told the photographs were of candidates for political offices. They were asked to rank them again, in the order they would vote for them.
The results showed that attractive males completely defeated unattractive men, but the women who had ranked most attractive unchangeably received the fewest votes.
48．The word “liability” most probably means________.
A．disadvantage
B．advantage
C．misfortune
D．trouble
49．In traditionally female jobs, attractiveness________.
A．makes women look more honest and capable
B．strengthens the feminine qualities required
C．is of great importance to women
D．often enables women to succeed quickly
50．It can be inferred from the passage that people's view on beauty are often________.
A．practical
B．supportive
C．old fashioned
D．one sided

参考答案：
1、
1. D解析：a most＝a very; a second time再次，泛指。
2. 答案：A解析：for one thing意为“一则”，其后接第一个原因，接下来的also意为“而且，再则”，其后接第二个原因。其中also也可以用for another(thing)来替代。
3. 答案：D解析：问句中表示询问对方是否再喝点茶，具有肯定意味，所以用a little或some，答语中的“太多”指的是tea，是不可数名词，所以用much。
4. 答案：C解析：do sb. a favour固定短语，“帮某人一个忙”。
5. 答案：C解析：这句话的意思是：新证据的发现使得小偷束手就擒。to是介词，后面接了动名词的复合结构，the thief是动名词的逻辑主语。
6. 答案：B解析：动词 ing形式的否定式是在其前面加not。

12. 答案：D解析：How do you find...？意为“觉得……怎么样”，答案中只有D项是对电影的评价。
13. 答案：B解析：及物动词do已有宾语more，故用疑问副词how表方式。
14. 答案：D解析：expect sb. to do sth.期盼某人做某事。hope无此用法；wait不及物动词；look forward to doing。
15. 答案：B解析：why not“为什么不？”表示同意。

37. 答案：D解析：细节题。从文章第一段第七句中accidental可知，作者进入那家商店非常偶然，A、B、C三项显然不对。
38. 答案：C
解析：推理判断题。联系上文可知作者对男孩展现出来的做事的激情非常赞赏，认为只要他坚持下去就一定会成功。所以C项正确。
39. 答案：A
解析：主旨题。通读全文，作者给出了几种怎样使公共演讲获得成功的方法，而在最后一段，点出了本文的主题“如果你遵循了以上所讲的方法，就不会害怕在公众面前演讲了”，也就是说，遵循作者所讲的几种方法，演讲能力也就提高了。故A为正确答案。
40. 答案：A
解析：解答此题可采用排除法。B与原文第一句不符“许多人是害怕演讲”，C只是第1段的一个细节，D在原文中没提，而A与第1段第2句相符，故答案为A。
41. 答案：A
解析：词汇题。首先找到相关的文字材料“Don't talk over their heads, and don't talk down to them”，并且分析此句所处的上下文，上句意思为“不要谈的过于复杂”，不难推出“talk down to them”意思为“谈的太简单”。故答案为A。
42. 答案：B
解析：细节题。根据原文的第5段“……首先要在小组中介绍他人，然后尽力使小组讨论顺利进行，并且尽
力使谈话者之间保持一种联系”，故可知B为正确答案。

解析：这道题要求确定哪个选项是正确的，实际上是要求确定哪个选项与原文论述一致。A在原文中没有提到，C本文并不是叙述做公共演讲是多么困难，D与文章不符，本文阐述大多数人都害怕公共演讲，而B恰恰是本文的主题。故B为正确答案。
44. 答案：B
解析：语篇解读题。由“Every morning at Dixie High School, customers pour into a special experiment.”可知B项正确。
45. 答案：C
解析：细节理解题。由“They learn not only how to run a coffee shop but also how to deal with their affairs.”可知。
46. 答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据“Whoever made the chi tea, Ms. Schatzman says it was good，”Christy Mckinley, a second year student, announced recently, after hanging up with the teacher.可知Christy Mackinley与她的老师通过电话。hang up是关键词，意为“挂断电话”。
47. 答案：B
解析：推理判断题。由“She made sure all the drinks, which use non fat milk, fell within nutrition guidelines.”可知Ginger Gray确保所有饮料都符合健康标准。
48. 答案：A
解析：猜词题。此题易选B，因为第一段句首的所有句子都讲了漂亮的人得到的好处，如何受人羡慕，好的婚姻，令人羡慕的工作等等，但是最后一句的But一词对liability的意义推测起了决定性作用。由此我们可以看出liability的意思与上面的相反，因此A为最佳答案。
49. 答案：D
解析：细节题。从第五段“Thus, an attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs...”得此答案。在此advantage in traditionally female jobs是指“在传统女性工作方面更具有优势”，因此D为最佳答案。
50. 答案：D
解析：推理判断题。文章第一段主要叙述了人们对有吸引力的人的羡慕，接下来作者叙述了有吸引力的男女在实际生活、工作中的长处和短处。但是通过第一段我们可以推断出一般人并没有看到有吸引力的人们的短处，因此说他们的观点是片面的。

参考范文
Car-free Day was launched in our city and 107 other cities on September 22 to encourage people to take public transport, ride bicycles or walk instead of driving private cars. The campaign has gained much support all over the country and has raised awareness among all people of energy saving and environmental protection. It's a real success.
With the development of the economy, more and more families have bought private cars, thus leading to much heavier traffic problems and serious air pollution. Therefore, I think it's necessary to launch such campaigns. And I hope more cities and their residents will take part in this type of activity.

A
One fine afternoon I was walking along the Fifth Street, when I remembered that it was necessary to buy a pair of socks. Why I wished to buy only one pair was unimportant. I turned into the first sock shop that caught my eye, and a boy clerk who could not have been more than seventeen years old came forward, “What can I do for you, sir？”“I wish to buy a pair of socks.” His eyes shone. There was a note of excitement in his voice，“Did you know that you had come into the finest place in the world to buy socks？”I had no idea of that, as my entrance had been accidental. “Come with me，”said the boy, eagerly. I followed him to the back of the shop, and he began to pull down from the shelves box after box showing their contents for my choice.
“Hold on, lad, I am going to buy only one pair！”“I know that，”said he, “but I want you to see how beautiful these are. Aren't they wonderful？” There was on his face an expression of seriousness and pride and delight as if he were showing to me the secrets of his religion. I became far more interested in him than in the socks. I looked at him in amazement. “My friend，”said I, “if you can keep this up, if this is not merely from having a new job, if you can keep up this high spirits and excitement day after day, in ten years you will own every sock in the United States.”

So, you have to give a speech—and you're terrified. You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you stumble over words, you talk too long, and you bore your audience. Later you think, “Thank goodness, it's over. I'm just not good at public speaking. I hope I never have to do that again.”
Cheer up! It doesn't have to be that bad. Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making. First of all, it is important to plan. Do your homework. Find out everything you can about your subject. And, at the same time, find out as much as you can about your audience. Who are they What do they know about your subject Do they have a common interest Why are they coming to hear you speak Put yourself in their shoes as you prepare your speech.
Ask yourself the purpose of your speech. What is the occasion Why are you speaking Are you introducing another speaker Moderating(主持)a discussion Giving a lecture Convincing someone There are many possible speaking roles, and each one has its own special characteristics. Make sure you know into which category you fit. Don't spoil your speech by confusing one speaking role with another.
Let us suppose that you have been asked to introduce the main speaker at a conference. First, find out the most important and interesting things about the speaker. Then, summarize the information in a few remarks. It is all right to tell a joke or an anecdote(趣闻)if it is in good taste and will not embarrass the speaker. And, most important, be brief. Remember, you are not the main speaker; you are introducing the main speaker.
If you are a moderator, you should begin by giving a quick introduction of the people on the panel. After that, you should try to keep the discussion running smoothly, and you should try to focus on the connections between speakers. Keep yourself in the background. Don't talk too much, and don't interrupt the panelists. Be tactful and be considerate.
If you are giving a lecture or explaining an idea, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of time doing your research. Then spend plenty of time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible, and use pictures, charts, and graphs if they will help you make your points more clearly. Never forget your audience. Don't talk over their heads, and don't talk down to them. Treat your audience with respect. They will appreciate your thoughtfulness.
If you are trying to sell something, you will need to convince your audience. Do you want them to vote for candidate A Are you offering them a new, improved toothbrush This kind of speech is usually dramatic, but here too, you must do your research and know your facts.
When you are making your speech, try to relax, speak slowly and clearly and look at people in your audience. Use simple vocabulary and expressions whenever possible. Pause for a few seconds now and then to give your audience a chance to think about what you have said. Make sure that everyone in the room can hear you. If it is a large room or an auditorium, you will probably have to use a microphone.
Just remember: Be prepared. Know your subject, your audience, and the occasion. Be brief. Say what you have to say and then stop. And be yourself. Let your personality come through so that you make person to person contact with your audience.
If you follow these simple steps, you'll see that you don't have to be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches! You're not convinced yet Give it a try and see what happens.

EDGEWOOD Every morning at Dixie Heights High School, customers pour into a special experiment: the district's first coffee shop run mostly by students with special learning needs.
Well before classes start, students and teachers order Lattes, Cappuccinos and Hot Chocolates. Then, during the first period, teachers call in orders on their room phones, and students make deliveries.
By closing time at 9?20 a．m., the shop usually sells 90 drinks.
“Whoever made the chi tea, Ms. Schatzman says it was good，”Christy McKinley, a second year student, announced recently, after hanging up with the teacher.
The shop is called the Dixie PIT, which stands for Power in Transition. Although some of the students are not disabled, many are, and the PIT helps them prepare for life after high school.
They learn not only how to run a coffee shop but also how to deal with affairs. They keep a timecard and receive paychecks, which they keep in check registers.
Special education teachers Kim Chevalier and Sue Casey introduced the Dixie PIT from a similar program at Kennesaw Mountain High School in Georgia.
Not that it was easy. Chevalier's first problem to overcome was product related. Should schools be selling coffee What about sugar content
Kenton Country Food Service Director Ginger Gray helped. She made sure all the drinks, which use non fat milk, fell within nutrition(营养) guidelines.
The whole school has joined in to help.
Teachers agreed to give up their lounge (体息室) in the mornings. Art students painted the name of the shop on the wall. Business students designed the paychecks. The basketball team helped pay for cups.
44．What is the text mainly about
A．A best selling coffee.
B．A special educational program.
C．Government support for schools.
D．A new type of teacher student relationship.
45．The Dixie PIT program was introduced in order to ________.

46．How did Christy McKinley know Ms. Schatzman's opinion of the chi tea
A．She met her in the shop.
B．She heard her telling others.
C．She talked to her on the phone.
D．She went to her office to deliver the tea.
47．We know from the text that Ginger Gray ________.

Beauty has always been regarded as something praise worthy. Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier and healthier, have better marriages and have more respectable jobs. Even judges are softer on attractive defendants(被告). But in the executive(主管)circle, beauty can become a liability.
While attractiveness is a positive factor of a man on his way up the executive ladder, it is harmful to a woman.
Handsome male executives were considered as having more honesty than plainer men; effort and ability were thought to lead to their success.
Attractive female executives were considered to have less honesty than unattractive ones; their successes were connected not with ability but with factors, such as luck. All unattractive women executives were thought to have more honesty and to be more capable than the attractive female executives. Interestingly though, the rise of the unattractive overnight successes was connected more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of the attractive overnight successes.
Why are attractive women not thought to be able An attractive woman is considered to be more feminine and an attractive man more manly than the less attractive ones. Thus, an attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs, but an attractive woman in a traditionally manly position appears to lack the “manly” qualities required.
This is true even in politics. “When the only clue is how he or she looks, people treat men and women differently.” says Anne Bowman, who recently published a study on the effects of attractiveness on political candidates(候选人). She asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs, one of men and one of women, in order of attractiveness. The students were told the photographs were of candidates for political offices. They were asked to rank them again, in the order they would vote for them.
The results showed that attractive males completely defeated unattractive men, but the women who had ranked most attractive unchangeably received the fewest votes.
48．The word “liability” most probably means________.
A．disadvantage
B．advantage
C．misfortune
D．trouble
49．In traditionally female jobs, attractiveness________.
A．makes women look more honest and capable
B．strengthens the feminine qualities required
C．is of great importance to women
D．often enables women to succeed quickly
50．It can be inferred from the passage that people's view on beauty are often________.
A．practical
B．supportive
C．old fashioned
D．one sided

参考答案：
1、
1. D解析：a most＝a very; a second time再次，泛指。
2. 答案：A解析：for one thing意为“一则”，其后接第一个原因，接下来的also意为“而且，再则”，其后接第二个原因。其中also也可以用for another(thing)来替代。
3. 答案：D解析：问句中表示询问对方是否再喝点茶，具有肯定意味，所以用a little或some，答语中的“太多”指的是tea，是不可数名词，所以用much。
4. 答案：C解析：do sb. a favour固定短语，“帮某人一个忙”。
5. 答案：C解析：这句话的意思是：新证据的发现使得小偷束手就擒。to是介词，后面接了动名词的复合结构，the thief是动名词的逻辑主语。

12. 答案：D解析：How do you find...？意为“觉得……怎么样”，答案中只有D项是对电影的评价。
13. 答案：B解析：及物动词do已有宾语more，故用疑问副词how表方式。
14. 答案：D解析：expect sb. to do sth.期盼某人做某事。hope无此用法；wait不及物动词；look forward to doing。
15. 答案：B解析：why not“为什么不？”表示同意。

48. 答案：A
解析：猜词题。此题易选B，因为第一段句首的所有句子都讲了漂亮的人得到的好处，如何受人羡慕，好的婚姻，令人羡慕的工作等等，但是最后一句的But一词对liability的意义推测起了决定性作用。由此我们可以看出liability的意思与上面的相反，因此A为最佳答案。
49. 答案：D
解析：细节题。从第五段“Thus, an attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs...”得此答案。在此advantage in traditionally female jobs是指“在传统女性工作方面更具有优势”，因此D为最佳答案。
50. 答案：D
解析：推理判断题。文章第一段主要叙述了人们对有吸引力的人的羡慕，接下来作者叙述了有吸引力的男女在实际生活、工作中的长处和短处。但是通过第一段我们可以推断出一般人并没有看到有吸引力的人们的短处，因此说他们的观点是片面的。

参考范文
Car-free Day was launched in our city and 107 other cities on September 22 to encourage people to take public transport, ride bicycles or walk instead of driving private cars. The campaign has gained much support all over the country and has raised awareness among all people of energy saving and environmental protection. It's a real success.
With the development of the economy, more and more families have bought private cars, thus leading to much heavier traffic problems and serious air pollution. Therefore, I think it's necessary to launch such campaigns. And I hope more cities and their residents will take part in this type of activity.
