3．Why do some clothes fit us and some don't？It became clear to Louise Wannier in a fashion design class．"We were learning to draw body proportions （比例） just from one model，"Wannier，53，says．"Since women come in all sizes and shapes，I asked the teacher when we would learn about other body proportions．And she said，‘We don't．There are 5，000 designers，and each one designs only for his own model．'"
   Suddenly，Wannier understood why fitting rooms（试衣间） everywhere are full of frustrated women．"I knew right then that there was a business in helping women quickly find clothes for their shape and that it needed to be online．"
Wannier，who had already started two successful technology companies，rushed home to begin working on the idea．Two years later，in October 2006，she set up myshape．com．Customers go online to enter their measurements and are given one of seven body types based on their body proportions．
Seeing models of various shapes and sizes，many businessmen were impressed with Wannier's idea and put up 32 million，helping her develop the business plan．
Once Wannier set up an online survey for potential customers．Within 24 hours，she got over 700 responses （响应） and a third of them signed up．"We were astonished，"recalls Wannier．"It made us believe there was really a demand．"
Today，with 700，000 customers and 300 designers，the site has proved its usefulness．"For some weeks，"says Wannier，"we get 100-percent customer satisfaction．And designers are very happy：they get a new channel to sell their products and more customers．"
While My Shape continues to sign up customers and designers，the company isn't yet profitable （盈利的）．"We just get one percent of the price of the clothes，"says Wannier．"In order to make money，we have to attract more customers that will come back again and again．"
28．How do designers usually design clothes？B
A．They design according to fixed body proportions．

20．At the risk of sounding lazy，I'll just be honest：I used to hate making my bed．Why should I bother？I'm just going to get right back into it later，and no one except my immediate family will see it．
But something I read last week in Charles Duhigg's"The Power of Habit"changed my mind．According to Duhigg，making your bed every morning is connected with better productivity and sticking to a budget．It has also been suggested that making your bed promotes happiness．My interest was attracted．
According to Duhigg，making your bed is something called a keystone habit．Changing or forming keystone habits helps you develop other good habits．
I figured that I was the perfect test case for the Make Your Bed to Achieve Happiness Theory and that it was worth a try．So far I've made my bed for 10days in a row．And here's what I've noticed：Making my bed inspires my children to make their beds，clean their rooms and do the laundry and the dishes．
Karen Miller，author of"Hand Wash Cold"，explains："The state of your bed is the state of your head．"I think she is on to something．When I leave my bed in a heap （一堆），I leave the bedroom feeling defeated by my bed，my alarm clock，and my general sleepy mood．I'm reluctant to get the day started．
But when I look at my freshly made bed，I have to admit it：I smile a little．I feel just a bit more motivated．Productive，even．But sticking to a budget？That part is still up for debate．I just bought some beautiful pillows for my freshly made bed．I can't leave that beautiful bed half-dressed，can I？
28．The author decided to make her bedA．
A．under the influence of a book
B．to form some keystone habits
C．to create a good impression
D．at the request of her family
29．After watching the author making her bed，the author's childrenC．
A．got up very early
B．felt happier at home
C．began to share the housework
D．loved her more than before
30．Which of the following can best replace the underlined word"reluctant"？B
A．curious．
B．unwilling．
C．lucky．
D．regretful．
31．How does the author feel about the habit of making her bed？D
A．It is a waste of time．
B．It helps save money．
C．It promotes communication．
D．It makes a difference in life．

7．Last Friday，6-year-old Landon Johnson went to the River Town Crossings Mall in Grandville with his family．While there，the boy and his cousins took turns chatting with Santa，sharing their Christmas desires．
After telling the man in red he wanted a Wii，a toy dinosaur and a remote control car，Landon hopped off Santa's lap to rejoin his family．But a few moments later，he raced back to Santa's side：he'd forgotten to tell him something important．Specifically，Landon shared his worry with Santa that his autism（自闭症） would land him on the"naughty list．"
His mom，Naomi Johnson，explained to WOOD-TV this week that Landon is often told he's"naughty"by people who mistake his autism for bad behavior．"You get the stares when you're at the grocery store if he's too loud，"Johnson said．"He's been told by other people before，‘You don't need to be so naughty，'or，‘Why are you naughty？"
Johnson says Santa took the time to listen to Landon's worries，and held the boy's hands all the while．"Santa sat him next to him and took Landon's hands in his and started rubbing them，calming them down．Santa asked Landon if it bothered him，having Autism？Landon said yes，sometimes．Then Santa told him it shouldn't．It shouldn't bother him to be who he is，"Johnson said．
Landon told Santa that he sometimes"gets in trouble at school and it's hard for people to understand that he has autism，"but that he's"not a naughty boy．"
"You know I love you and the reindeer love you and it's OK．You're a good boy，"Santa told WOOD-TV about the chat with Landon．"You're a good boy，you know．"
Johnson said she was incredibly moved by Santa's thoughtful words．"This stranger in a red suit told my son the same message I've been trying to get through to him for a while now-that he's special and I love him just the way he was made，"the mom told Today．com．"Seeing Landon's face light up in that moment was just incredible．I couldn't stop crying．He was the real Santa Claus．"

                                                     25^th February
Sir，
Just over six months ago，I saw an advertisement in the Morning Mail for a set of the complete works of William Shakespeare．Your company，Cosmo books Ltd．，offered this set （eight books of plays and two books of poetry） at what was claimed to be a‘remarkable'price：fifteen pounds and fifty pence，including postage and packing．I had wanted a set of Shakespeare's plays and poems for some time，and these books，in red imitation leather，looked particularly attractive； so I sent for them．
Two weeks later，the books arrived，together with a set of the complete works of Charles Dickens which I had not ordered．So I returned the Dickens books to you，with a cheque for fifteen pounds and fifty pence for the works of Shakespeare．Two more weeks passed．Then there arrived on my door step a second set of the works of Shakespeare，the same set of novels by Dickens and a six book set of the plays of Moliere，in French．Since I do not read French，these were of no use to me at all．However，I could not afford to post all these books back to you，so I wrote to you at the end of August of last year，instructing you to come and collect all the books that I did not want，and asking you not to send any other books until further notice．
You did not reply to that letter．Instead you sent me a bill for forty two pounds，and a set of the plays of Schiller，in German．Since then，a new set of books has arrived every two weeks，the works of Goethe，the poems of Milton，the plays of Strindberg； I hardly know what I have．The books are still all in their boxes，in the garage，and my car has to stand in the rain outside．
I have no room for any more books，and even if I read from now until the Last Judgment，I should not finish reading all the books that you have sent me．
Please send no more books，send no more bills，send no more angry letters demanding payment．Just send one large lorry and take all the books away，leaving me only with the one set of the complete works of Shakespeare for which I have paid．
Yours faithfully，
SIMON WALKER
