16．It was the afternoon of December 24，the day before Christmas；and as the newest doctor in our office，I had to work．The only thingt brightened my tha day was the beautifully decorated Christmas tree in our waiting room and a gift sent to me by a fellow I was dating-a dozen long-stemmed red roses．
As I was cleaning my office，I was told a lady urgently needed to speak with me．As I stepped out，I noticed a young，tired-looking woman with a baby in her arms．Nervously，she explained that her husband-a prisoner in a nearby prison-was my next patient．She told me she wasn't allowed to visit her husband in prison and that he had never seen his son．Her request was for me to let the boy's father sit in the waiting room with her as long as possible before I called him for his appointment．Since my schedule wasn't full，I agreed．After all，it was Christmas Eve．
A short time later，her husband arrived-with chains on his feet and hands，and two armed guards as bodyguards．The woman's tired face lit up like our little Christmas tree when her husband took a seat beside her．I kept glancing out to watch them laugh，cry and share their child．After almost an hour，I called the prisoner back to my office．The patient seemed like a gentle and modest man．I wondered what he possibly could have done to be held under such conditions．I tried to make him as comfortable as possible．
At the end of the appointment，I wished him a Merry Christmas-a difficult thing to say to a man headed back to prison．He smiled and thanked me．He also said he felt saddened by the fact he hadn't been able to get his wife anything for Christmas．On hearing this，I was inspired with a wonderful idea．
I'll never forget the look on both their faces as the prisoner gave his wife the beautiful，long-stemmed roses．I'm not sure who experienced the most joy-the husband in giving，the wife in receiving，or myself in having the opportunity to share in this special moment．

59．What can be inferred from the first paragraph？C
A．The writer was a newcomer to her office．
B．A fellow sent her a dozen red roses as Christmas present．
C．She was in low spirits because she had to work before Christmas．
D．She was at work with a light heart．
60．The young woman came to the writer's office for the purpose ofD．
A．having her baby examined
B．giving her husband a chance to make his escape
C．having her husband examined
D．getting a chance for her family to get together
61．The underlined part in Paragraph 3most probably means"D"．
A．to be sent to hospital
B．to be separated from his family
C．to be comfortable
D．to become a prisoner
62．What does the writer learn from the story？B
A．The wife experienced the most joy in receiving．
B．An act of kindness can mean a lot．
C．The prisoner was treated with mercy．
D．Whoever breaks the law should be punished．

17．[1]How we look and how we appear to others probably worries us more when are in our teens or early twenties than at any other time in our life．Few of us are content to accept ourselves as we are，and few are brave enough to ignore the trends of fashion．
[2]Most fashion magazines or TV advertisements try to persuade us that we should dress in a certain way or behave in a certain manner．If we do，they tell us，we will be able to meet new people with confidence and deal with every situation confidently and without embarrassment．Changing fashion，of course，does not apply just to dress．A barber today does not cut a boy's hair in the same way as he used to，and girls do not make up in the same way as their mothers and grandmothers did．The advertisers show us the latest fashionable styles and we are constantly under pressure to follow the fashion in case our friends think we are odd or dull．
[3]What causes fashions to change？Sometimes convenience or practical necessity or just the fancy of an influential person can establish a fashion．Take hats，for example．In cold climates，early buildings were cold inside，so people wore hats indoors as well as outside．In recent times，the late President Kennedy caused a depression in the American hat industry by not wearing hats：more American men followed his example．
[4]There is also a cyclical pattern in fashion．In the 1920s in Europe and America，short skirts became fashionable．After World War Two，they dropped to ankle length．Then they got shorter and shorter and the miniskirt was in fashion．After a few more years，skirts became longer again．
[5]Today，society is much freer and easier than it used to be．It is no longer necessary to dress like everyone else．Within reason，you can dress as you like or do your hair the way you like instead of the way you should because it is the fashion．The popularity of jeans and the"untidy"look seems to be a reaction against the increasingly expensive fashion of the top fashion houses．
76．What do the fashion magazines or TV advertisements claim to bring to us？
（no more than 2words
77．Why does the writer take President Kennedy as an example？（no more than 14 words）To show the fancy of an influential person can establish a fashion
78．What does the writer try to explain by talking about short skirts？（no more than 8 words）There is a cyclical pattern in fashion
79．Why are jeans so popular according to the writer？（no more than 10 words）Because it's a reaction against the increasingly expensive fashion
80．According to the passage，how can the fashion in modern society be best described？（ one word）Free．
