| If women are mercilessly exploited (剥削) year after year, they have only themselves to blame,because they tremble at the thought of being seen in pubhc in clothes that are out of fashion. They are always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores. Clothes which have been worn only a few times have to be put aside because of the change of fashion. When you come to think of it, only a woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe packed with clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear. Changing fashion is nothing more than the intentional creation of waste. Many women spend vast sums of money each year to re- place clothes that have hardly been worn. Women who cannot afford to throw away clothing in this way, waste hours of their time altering the dresses they have. Skirts are lengthened or shortened;necklines are lowered or raised, and so on. No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. Fashion designers are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth, comfort and durability (耐用). They're only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, as long as they look right. There can hardly be a man who hasn't sometime in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day, or delicately picking her way through deep snow in high-heeled shoes. When comparing men and women in the matter of fashion, the conclusions to be drawn are obvious. Does the constantly changing fashion of women's clothes, one wonders, reflect basic qualities of instability(不稳定) ? Men are too clever to let themselves be cheated by fashion designers. Do their unchanged styles of dress reflect basic qualities of stability and reliability? That is for you to decide. |
| 1. Designers and big stores always make money ________. |
| A. by mercilessly exploiting women workers in the clothing industry B. because they are capable of predicting the new fashion C. by constantly changing the fashion in women's clothing D. because, they always improve the quality of women's clothing |
| 2. To the writer, the fact that women change their old-fashioned dresses is seen as_______. |
| A. a quality of instability B. a waste of time and money C. an expression of taste D. an expression of creativity |
| 3. The writer would be less critical if fashion designers placed more stress on the ____ of clothing. |
| A. Cost B. appearance C. comfort D. suitability |
| 4. According to the passage, which of the following statements isTRUE? |
| A. New fashions in clothing are created for the commercial exploitation of women. B. The constant changes in women's clothing reflect their strength of character. C. The fashion industry makes an important contribution to society. D. Fashion designers should not be encouraged since they are only welcomed by women. |
| 5. By saying" the conclusions to be drawn are obvious", the writer means that_______. |
| A. women's changeableness in their choice of clothing was often laughed at B. women are better able to put up with discomfort C. men are also exploited greatly by fashion designers D. men are more reasonable in the matter of fashion |

| Most people think of racing when they see greyhounds(灰狗) and believe they need lots of exercise. They can actually be quite lazy! Greyhounds are good at fast races but not long-distance run- ning. They do need regular exercise but they like to run for a short burst and then get back on the bed or a comfortable seat. Another misunderstanding is that greyhounds must be aggressive (好斗的) because they are big in size. In fact greyhounds love people and are gentle with children. Greyhounds can live for 12～14 years but usually only race for two or three years, and after that they make great pets. They don't need a lot of space,don't make a lot of noise,and don't eat a lot for their size. Normally, greyhounds can be as tall as 90cm. There is, however, a small-sized greyhound, which stands only 33cm. Greyhounds come in a variety of colors. Grey and yellowish-brown are the most common. Others include black, white, blue, red and brown or a mix of these. Greyhounds have smooth body coats ,low body fat and are very healthy. Because they're slim (苗条的)they don't have the leg problems like other dogs with the same height. But they do feel the cold ,especially since they would much rather be at home in bed than walking around outside. | |
| 1. The text is written mainly ________. | |
| A. to tell people how to raise greyhounds B. to let people know more about greyhounds C. to explain why greyhounds are aggressive D. to describe greyhounds of different colors | |
| 2. It can be inferred that greyhounds _______. | |
| A. love big dog houses B. like staying in bed all day C. make the best guard dogs D. need some exercise outdoors | |
| 3. Why does the author say that greyhounds.make great pets7 | |
| A. They are big in size. B. They live a very long life. C. They can run races for some time. D. They are quiet and easy to look after. | |

| What do you want to be when you grow up? A teacher? A doctor? How about an ice cream taster? Yes, there really is a job where you can get paid to taste ice cream. Just ask John Harrison, an " Official Taste Tester" for the past 21 years. Testing helps manufacturers to be sure of a product's quality. During his career Harrison has been responsible for appro- ving large quantities of sweet ice cream--as well as for developing over 75 flavors(味道). Some people think that it would be easy to do this job;after all, you just have to like ice cream,right? No-there's more to the job than that,says Harrison,who has a degree in chemistry. He points out that a dairy or food-science degree would be very useful to someone wanting a career in this "cool"field. In a typical morning on the job, Harrison tastes and assesses 60 ice cream samples. He lets the ice cream warm up to about 12°F. Harrison explains, " You get more flavor from warmer ice cream, which is why some kids like to stir it, creating ice-cream soup. " While the ice cream warms up, Harrison looks over the samples and grades each one on its appearance. "Tasting begins with the eyes," he explains. He checks to see if the ice cream is attractive and asks himself, "Does the product have the colour expected from that flavor?" Next it's time to taste! Continuing to think up new ideas, try out new flavors and test samples from so many kinds of ice cream each day keeps Harrison busy but happy-working at one cool job. |
| 1. What is John Harrison's job? |
| A. An official. B. An ice cream taster. C. A chemist. D. An ice cream manufacturer. |
| 2. According to John Harrison, to be qualified in the" cool field", it is helpful to _______. |
| A. keep a diary of work B. have a degree in related subjects C. have new ideas every day D. find out new flavors each day |
| 3. What does Harrison do first when testing ice cream? |
| A. He stirs the ice cream. B. He examines the colour of the ice cream. C. He tastes the flavor of the ice cream. D. He lets the ice cream warm up. |
| 4. Which of the following is probably the best title of the passage? |

| The African ancestors of today's black Americans were brought to the US as slaves in the seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth century, They worked on farms, especially the large farms in the southern states. Slowly they became a necessary part of the economic system (经济体系) of the South. Slaves did not have the right of people;according tO the law, they were a" thing" which belonged to the person who bought them. They had to obey the orders of their owners without question. They were not allowed to learn to read ; their owners feared the educated slaves would begin to think about the injustice of the system and would learn to struggle for their freedom. Slaves had to work long hours in very unhealthy conditions. Their owners had complete power over them. They could be bought and sold like animals. At the slave markets, black children were separated from their parents and never saw them again. Slave owners had the right to punish the slave who broke the rule or was against the system. Slaves were often beaten by their owners or killed. After the Civil War, one free slave reported that his owner killed an older slave who was teaching him to read. In theory, an owner who treated a slave badly could be punished. In practice, however, the taw meant nothing. The opposition to slavery began very early in the history of the US-in 1671-but little progress was made until the beginning of the nineteenth century. By 1804, slavery was illegal in the northern states. But it continued and even grew, in the southern states, which depended on cotton for their economic health. Slavery ended in the South only after the Civil War. For blacks,however,the end of slavery was only a beginning, the beginning of a long and difficult struggle for true justice. |
| 1. What is the main topic of this passage? |
| A. African ancestors of today's black Americans. B. The opposition to slavery in the United States. C. Slavery in the United States. D. The right of black Americans. |
| 2. According to the writer,why couldn't slaves learn to read? |
| A. Because reading was not something which they needed for their work. B. Because their owners were afraid that books would give them advanced ideas. C. Because they did not have enough time to read. D. Because they were so poor that they could not go to school. |
| 3. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage? |
| A. Many people from other countries became US citizens in the 1700s. B. The US government paid much attention to freedom. C. There were some laws that successfully protected the rights of slaves. D. The opposition to slavery in the United States began in the seventeenth century. |

| Have one of those days or weeks when everything seems to annoy you? Even if you do nothing about it,your bad mood will probably go away after some time. But with a little effort,you can forget it much faster, often within a day or two. ◆ Walk it off Exercise is the most popular way to remove bad mood. A person who's in a bad mood has low energy and high tension. Taking a fast ten-minute walk, or taking some quick exercise can do wonders towards changing that bad mood. ◆ Tune it out Listening to your favorite music for a while can also make tensions go away quickly,because music starts associations with past positive experiences we've had. ◆ Give yourself a pep talk Stop and listen to what's on your mind. Bad moods are often started by too many negative thoughts. Write them all down on paper, including the pessimistic ( 悲观的)messages you've been giving yourself and then give optimistic answers. ◆ Avoid things that won't improve your mood TV may not help much. You need to increase your energy level and stimulate your mind. And before you reach for that piece of cake or coffee ,think about how are linked. Sugar and caffeine contribute to depressed moods. While carbohydrates, such as potatoes and pasta( 意大利面食) produce a calming effect in people who have a desire for them. |
