17.A bargain is something offered at a low and advantageous price.A more recent definition is:a bargain is a dirty trick to force money out of the pockets of silly and innocent people.
 The cost of producing a new-for example-toothpaste would make 80p the proper price for it,so we will market it at£1.20.It is not a bad toothpaste,and as people like to try new things it will sell well to start with; but the attraction of novelty soon fades,so sales will fall.When that happens we will reduce the price to£1.15.And we will turn it into a bargain by printing 5p OFF all over it.
 Sometimes it is not 5p OFF but 1p OFF.What breathtaking rudeness to advertise 1p OFF your soap or washing powder or whatever!Even the poorest old-age pensioner ought to regard this as an insult(侮辱),but he doesn't.A bargain must not be missed.People say one has to have washing powder (or whatever) and one might as well buy it a penny cheaper.
The real danger starts when unnecessary things become‘bargains'.Many people just cannot resist bargains.Provided they think they are getting a bargain they will buy clothes they will never wear or furniture they have no space for.Once I heard of a man who bought an electric saw as a bargain and cut off two of his fingers the next day.But he had no regrets:the saw had been truly cheap.
 Quite a few people actually believe that they make money on such bargains.A lady once told me:"I've had a lucky day today.I bought a dress for£120,reduced from£400; and I bought a beautiful Persian carpet for£600,reduced from£900."It will never occur to her that she has actually wasted£720.She feels as though she had made£580.She also feels,I am sure,that if she had more time for shopping,she could make a living out of it.
 Some people buy in large quantities because it is cheaper.Once a couple bought enough sugar for their lifetime and the lifetime of their children and grandchildren.They thought it a bargain not to be missed.When the sugar arrived they didn't know where to store it-until they realized that their toilet was a very spacious one.So that was where they piled up their sugar.Not only did their guests feel rather strange whenever they were offered sugar to put into their coffee,but the toilet became extremely sticky.
 To offer bargains is a commercial trick to make the poor poorer.When greedy fools fall for this trick,it serves them right.

15.Stress is difficult to define or measure.Some people enjoy a busy lifestyle and are able to deal well with life crises.(61)Other/Somepeople feel tensed or stressed by the slightest deviation from their set daily routine.Many people fall somewhere (62)inbetween,but may have periods when levels of stress increase.
You may have many signs if your stress builds up.For example,you won't be able to sleep properly(63)withworries going through your mind.You can be(64)impatient(patience) or irritable at minor problems.You may not be able to concentrate due to many things going through your mind.Some may lose their appetite and don't feel like (65)eating(eat).In addition,you will be unable to relax,and always feel that something needs(66)to be done/doing(do).
Ongoing stress (67)is thought (think) to be bad for health,although this is difficult to prove.Stress may also contribute to other physical illnesses in many ways which are little(68)understood(understand).For example,it is thought that many physical problems and other conditions are made (69)worse (bad) by an increased level of stress.Besides,your work performance,and relationships,may also be affected by stress.(70)Therefore/Then/Thus/Thereby,we should try our best to get rid of our stress and live more comfortably.
10.The other morning on the subway I sat next to an attractive young blonde woman who was reading something on her iPad.She was very well-dressed,carrying a Prada bag with tastefully applied make-up indeed,she had an unmistakable air of wealth,material success and even authority.I suspected she worked as a highly-paid Wall Street lawyer or stockbroker or something of that sort.So,I was curious to see what she was so focused on.The Wall Street Journal perhaps?The Economist?
Quite the contrary; rather,she was concentrating on a romance novel.Then I realized that I have known many women who love romance novels-smart,attractive,successful,"liberated,"modem females who nonetheless find some kind of deep satisfaction and thrill from those hyper-romantic,artificial and extremely unrealistic tales of handsome,manly heroes falling in love with virginal women,enduring a series of adventures,then no doubt having a happy ending.
These romance stories are to literature what hot dogs are to fine food.Yet,the genre(体裁) remains enormously popular.Consider some of these surprising statistics from the good folks at the Romance Writers of America (RWA):
*More than 9,000 romance titles were released last year,with sales of about 1.44 billion (more than triple the revenues generated by classic literary fiction).
*More than 90 percent of the market are women (okay,that's not at all surprising).
*Readers are typically women between the ages 30 and 54 who are themselves involved in a romantic relationship (betraying the stereotype that only lonely women long for these tales of love and adventure).
*Almost 40 percent of romance book consumers have an annual income of between 50,000 and $99,900 (placing them firmly in the middle class).
I had thought that romance novels accounted for a very small share of the literary market,so I was quite surprised that this part has such enormous popularity.But I must wonder why so many women-forty years after the women's liberation movement continue to indulge in the fanciful tales?
I'm not sure if it represents a kind of"rejection"of the women's liberation movement,but clearly something is missing in the lives of contemporary ladies.A romance author named Donna Hatch who focuses on the Regency period (early 19th century Britain) explained the appeal of such books this way:"Regency men were civilized and treated women with courtesy.When a lady entered the room,gentlemen stood,doffed their hats,offered an arm,bowed,and a hundred other little things I wish men still did today.But they were also very athletic; they hunted,raced,boxed,rode horses.They were manly.Strong.Noble.Honorable.And that is why I love them!"
Mrs.Hatch may have expressed the secret desires and attitudes of untold millions of her peers---that is,in the early 21st century,have women grown tired of the burdens and expectations that the"freedoms"they have gained give them?Is this a rejection of modem feminism?Do women long for days of old when men were masculine gentlemen and women were feminine and protected as precious treasures and regarded as possessions?
Perhaps most women (even the ones who get lost in romance novels) do not want to go all the way back but it is obvious,            .
58.What is the function of the opening paragraph?C
A.To summarize the whole passage.
B.To prove the author's argument.
C.To lead in the main topic of the passage.
D.To raise problems that will be solved later.
59.What does the underlined sentence in the third paragraph imply?B
A.Romance novels are satisfying and thrilling.
B.Romance novels are not of much"nutrition".
C.Romance novels are as popular as hot dogs.
D.Romance novels are an essential part of contemporary life.
60.In the author's opinion,what is missing in the lives of contemporary women?D
A.Authority.   B.Dignity.   C.Liberty.   D.Care.
61.Which sentence can be put in the blank in the last paragraph?B
A.they prefer tales of innocent romance to classics
B.they are unhappy with how the world has turned out
C.true love described in romance novels does exist in reality
D.romance novels provide them with an access to society.
17."Another bad day at school?"my father asked as I came into the room.
"How could you tell?I didn't shut the door heavily or anything,"I replied.Over the past two months I had either done this or thrown my backpack across the room every time I came home from school.Papa thinks it has something to do with moving to a new house.
"I know this move has been hard on you.Leaving your friends and cousins behind is tough,"Papa said,as he put his arm around my shoulder."What you must remember is that,with a lot of hard work and some time,you will make new friends."
"You don't know how hard it is.This year my baseball team would have won the championship.They won't even give me a chance to pitch (投球) here.All I get to play is right field,and that's the worst!"
Papa turned toward me."Things will get better,I promise you.Let me ask you,do you know why you were named David Lorenzo?"
"Yes,your name is David and grandfather's name is Lorenzo."
"Very good,and what makes your grandfather so important?"
"He was the first in the family to come to this country and all that,"I answered.
"That is only partly correct.Your grandfather was a very great man.In Mexico,he had been a teacher.When he came to America he could only get low-paid labor jobs because he didn't speak the language.It took him two years before he spoke English well enough to be allowed to teach here,but he did it.He never complained because he knew change could be difficult.Did he ever tell you that?"my father asked.
I looked down at my feet,ashamed at my behavior."No.That must have been hard,"I said sheepishly.
"Your grandfather taught me that if you let people see your talent,they will accept you for who you are.I want you to always remember what my father taught me,even if it takes a few years for people to see who you are,"said Papa.
All I could say was,"Okay."Then I asked,"What should I do now?"
Laughing,Papa said,"How about you pitch a few to me?You need some work."
31.Why was the author unhappy that day?C
A.Because he moved to a new country.
B.Because his baseball team lost the game.
C.Because he wasn't offered a chance to pitch.
D.Because he quarreled with his friends at school.
32.The father successfully changed his son's mood byB.
A.asking him to train harder           B.telling his grandfather's story
C.playing baseball with him            D.introducing him some new friends
33.The underlined word"sheepishly"probably meansD
A.cautiously       B.patiently        C.rudely           D.shyly
34.What can we infer about the author?D
A.He thinks his father lives in the past.
B.He'd rather live with his grandfather.
C.He will continue to dislike school and everything.
D.He will try his best to adapt to the new environment.
