题目内容

Few men________ shopping with their wives ________ at home to watch TV．

A．prefer going，to staying	B．prefer to go，to shopping
C．would rather to go，than stay	D．would rather going，than staying

考点：平行结构
点评：prefer和would rather的用法比较复杂，需要注意的是搭配动词的不同。非谓语动词的用法比较复杂，但都有比较固定的应用规则，平时应熟记这些规则，答题时结合具体语境分析。

　　Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping because he needs something. His purpose is settled and decided in advance. He knows what he wants, and his objective is to find it and buy it; the price is a secondary consideration. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it in stock（存货）, the salesman produces（呈出）it, and the business of trying it on proceeds（继续进行）at once. All being well, the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes, with hardly chat and to everyone's satisfaction.

　　For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants. In that case the salesman, as the name implies, tries to sell the customer something else. No good salesman brings out such a substitute bluntly（直率地）; he does so with skill. “I know this jacket is not the style you want, sir, but would you like to try it for size? It happens to be the color you want.” Few men have patience with this treatment. And the usual response（反应，回答）is:“This is the right color and may be the right size, but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on.”

　　Now how does a woman go about buying clothes? She does so in a different way, Her shopping is not based on need, She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is only “having a look round”. She will try on any number of things. In her mind there is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Faced with a roomful（一室所能容纳之量）of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour looking around before selecting the dresses she wants to try on. Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.

[　　]

[　　]

A．she does know what she needs

C．she's only walking around the shop

The first Starbucks coffee shop opened in 1971 in downtown Seattle, Washington, in the United States. It was a small coffee shop that roasted its own coffee beans. The coffee shop’s business did well, and by 1981 there were three more Starbucks stores in Seattle.

Things really began to change for the company in 1981. That year, Howard Schultz met the three men who ran(经营) Starbucks. Schultz worked in New York for a company that made kitchen equipment. He noticed that Starbucks ordered a large number of special coffee makers, and he was curious about the company. Schultz went to Seattle to see what Starbucks did, and he liked what he saw. He wanted to become part of the company. In 1982, the original(原先的) Starbucks owners hired Schultz as the company’s head of marketing.

In 1983, Schultz travelled to Italy. The unique atmosphere of the coffee bars there caught his eye. To Schultz it seemed that Italians spent their daily lives in three places: home, work and coffee bars. His experience in Italy gave Schultz a new idea for Starbucks back in Seattle.

Schultz created an atmosphere for Starbucks coffee shops that was comfortable, and customers everywhere seemed to like it. Between 1987 and 1992, Starbucks opened 150 new stores—and that was only the beginning. In fact, by the year 2000, three new Starbucks stores opened somewhere around the world every day!

Today, Starbucks has thousands of stores, including stores in twenty-six countries. One thing that helps make Starbucks succeed in cities outside the United States is the way Starbucks works with local stores and restaurants. By working together with a store already in the city, Starbucks gets an understanding of customers in the city. This understanding helps Starbucks open stores in the right locations for their customers.

11．What is the main idea of this passage?

　　A．How Starbucks has grown

B．What Starbucks makes．

　　C．Starbucks’customers．

D．How Starbucks makes its coffee．

12．Which is true about Starbucks’first ten years of business?

　　A．It grew very quickly．

B．It was run by Howard Schultz．

　　C．It made special coffee makers．

D．It was a small company．

13．Who is Howard Schultz?

　　A．A coffee seller in New York．

　　B．An Italian coffee maker

　　C．The man who changed the company．

　　D．One of the original owners of the company．

14. How many new Starbucks stores probably opened in the year 2000 around the world?

　A.Three. B.About1095. C.Two thousand. D. Thirty-six.

15．What helps Starbucks succeed in places outside the United States?

　　A．Opening restaurants in just a few locations each year．

　　B．Only selling locally produced coffee beans．

　　C．working with other major coffee-making companies．

　　D．Learning about local customers．
