分析 本文是两个熟人见面后就圣诞节的准备情况进行了一个简单的交流，然后提到了一则新闻，说是有人夜间闯入商店抢走现金的报道，女方说自己的丈夫被挟持的消息发生过．

解答 61---65 BDFAC
61．B．本句是对Have you got everything ready for Christmas？一句的回答，答语应该是含有yes或者no的句式，所以No．I came here to get some meat and fruit符合语境；故选B．
62．D．What about you，Mike？也是对询问圣诞节日的准备情况，所以I think I can get everything ready today中的get everything ready today与本话题相吻合；故选D．
63．F．本句是针对Mike提到的有人夜间闯入商店偷走4500美元这一消息消息的回应，根据后面Jenny的描述Two young men held up my husband on the street last week in the middle of the afternoon．可知，That's nothing，那倒没什么，她丈夫被挟持了才是要紧的；故选D．
64．A．听到不幸消息后自然会说I'm sorry to hear that表示同情，故选A．
65．C．上句Where did that take place？是对事件发生时间的询问，所以Only a block from here正是对对方问题的回答；故选C．

点评 对于这种题型要搞明白上下文之间的逻辑关系，要根据对话者所说的语气及语义关系来做出判断；只要符合文章的结构、通顺合理即可．

14．Everyone knows how the story of Cinderella ends，but did you ever really think about how she spent her days before she met the prince？Her daily routine was not fascinating．She did everything from sweeping the floor to cooking the meals．If someone had asked Cinderella，"Are there any kinds of household work that you particularly hate？"she probably would have answered，"Why，none，of course．Housework is my duty!"In the real world，however，most people have definite dislikes for certain sorts of household work．Two of these tasks are ironing clothes and washing dishes．
Ironing clothes is most hated because it is not a task that can be completed quickly or thoughtlessly．Each piece of clothing must be handled individually，so ironing a basket of laundry can take hours!After ironing a piece of clothing with great caution，which-requires smoothing out the fabric，and following the seams （线缝），you need to place it on a hanger as soon as possible．If you do not follow these directions carefully，it might become wrinkled （有皱纹的） and you have to start over．Perhaps that is why ironing is not a favorite thing to do．It calls for extreme attention to detail from beginning to end．
Another household job that many people dislike is washing dishes．Of course，some people claim that this work is no longer a problem because we have dishwashers now!However，no one would argue that dishes，silverware，and especially pots and pans washed in a dishwasher don't come out as clean as they do when washed by hand．For this reason，many of us continues to wash our dishes by hand，but we are not necessarily happy doing it．Cleaning dishes is a job that not only takes a lot of energy but also requires the patience to wash and dry them．In addition，unlike ironing clothes，washing dishes is a thing that usually must be done every day．I don't know how Cinderella felt about this particular task，but I believe that most people hate it as much as I do．

53．Why do most people hate to do clothes-ironing？D
A．Because it has to be done by one person．  B．Because it must be handled skillfully．
C．Because it involves careful planning．     D．Because it is time-consuming．
54．To avoid ironing the clothes over again，one shouldB．
A．know how to iron certain clothes material  B．spare no care through all the procedures
C．find some proper hangers for the ironed    D．pay special attention to the seams
55．Many people still prefer washing dishes by hand to machine washing becauseA．
A．hand-washed dishes are cleaner
B．washing dishes by hand is cheaper
C．dishwashers are not so easily handled
D．some dishes cannot be machine washed
56．In which way is ironing different from dishwashing？A
A．It is not a daily routine． B．It demands less care．
C．It requires patience．      D．It is not laborious．
15．I made a promise to myself on the way down to the vacation beach cottage．For two weeks I would try to be a loving husband and father．Totally loving．No ifs，ands or buts．
The idea had come to me as I listened to a talk on my car radio．The speaker was quoting a Biblical passage about husbands and their wives．Then he went on to say，"Love is an act of will．A person can choose to love．"To myself，I had to admit that I had been a selfish husband．Well，for two weeks that would change．
And it did．Right from the moment I kissed Evelyn at the door and said，"That new yellow sweater looks great on you．""Oh，Tom，you noticed"，she said，surprised and pleased．Maybe a little puzzled．After the long drive，I wanted to sit and read．Evelyn suggested a walk on the beach．I started to refuse，but then I thought，"Evelyn's been alone here with the kids all week and now she wants to be alone with me．"We walked on the beach while the children flew their kites．
So it went．Two weeks of not calling the Wall Street firm where I am a director； a visit to the shell museum though I usually hate museums．Relaxed and happy，that's how the whole vacation passed．I made a new promise to keep on remembering to choose love．?
There was one thing that went wrong with my experiment，however．Evelyn and I still laugh about it today．On the last night at our cottage，preparing for bed，Evelyn stared at me with the saddest expression．
"What's the matter？"I asked her．
"Tom，"she said in a voice filled with distress，"I don't？"
"What do you mean？"
"Well…that checkup I had several weeks ago…our doctor…did he tell you something about me？Tom，you've been so good to me…am I dying？"
It took a moment for it all to be understood．Then I burst out laughing．
"No，honey，"I said，wrapping her in my arms．"You're not dying； I'm just starting to live．"
56．In the first paragraph，"No ifs，ands or buts"probably meansD．
A．Unintentionally                              
B．Independently
C．Impressively                                 
D．Unconditionally
57．From the story we may infer that Tom drove to the beach cottageC．
A．with his family                              
B．with Evelyn
C．alone                                           
D．with his children
58．During the two weeks on the beach，Tom showed more love to his wife becauseA．
A．he was determined to be a good husband
B．he had made a lot of money in his Wall Street firm
C．she looked lovely in her new clothes
D．the doctor said his wife was seriously ill
59．The author says，"There was one thing that went wrong with my experiment．"What does"one thing"refer to？D
A．He praised her sweater，which puzzled her．
B．She insisted on visiting a museum，which he hated．
C．He knew something about her illness but didn't tell her．

C．he lived an unhappy life before and is now starting to change
D．he is beginning to feel regret for what he did to his wife before．
