3.One fine afternoon I was walking along Fifth Avenue (41)D I remembered that it was necessary to buy a pair of socks.Why I wished to buy only one pair is (42)B.I turned into the first sock shop that (43)B  my eye,and a boy clerk who could not have been more than seventeen years old came forward."What can I do for you,sir?""I wish to buy a pair of socks."His eyes were (44)B.There was a (an) (45)Aof excitement in his voice."Did you know that you had come into the finest place in the world to buy socks?"I had not been aware of that,as I entered the shop (46)C."Come with me,"said the boy,excitedly.I followed him to the back part of the shop,and he began to take down from the shelves box after box,(47)B their contents for my enjoyment."Hold on,young man,I am going to buy only one pair!""I know that,"said he,"but I want you to see how beautiful these are.Aren't they wonderful?"There was on his face an expression of pleasure,as if he were (48)D the mysteries of his religion.I became far more interested in him than in the socks.I looked at him in amazement."My friend,"said I,"if you can keep this up,if this is not (49)C the enthusiasm that comes from having a new job,if you can keep up this enthusiasm and excitement day after day,in ten years you will own every sock in the United States."

4.If your family is thinking of getting a pet,consider adopting from an animal shelter.Animal shelters are full of dogs,cats,rabbits,and more animals,all in need of loving homes.Some may come with emotional or behavioral issues,but most are happy,healthy,and ready for a loving home.(36)EMake some decisions.
Think about what you want in a pet and remember that all pets have different personalities.Cats tend to be more independent and need less affection,but kittens need lots of attention.Cats don't need to be walked,but you need to clip their nails and play with them.(37)AHowever,they are usually great companions and love to spend time with their family.
Visit the shelter.
Set aside at least a few hours to visit shelters in your area-remember that you may need to visit more than one shelter.Try to bring along everyone who will be living with the new pet.(38)GAnd never adopt an animal because you feel sorry for it-be patient so you find a pet who is truly a good match for your family.
(39)BBuy all necessary supplies and food well before the animal comes home.Make sure that the entire household is in agreement about rules and responsibilities-will the dog be allowed on the couch?Who will clean the litter box?Put it in writing before the pet arrives.
Bring your new friend home!
You'll probably be excited when your new pet arrives,but be sure to give them space and time to get used to a new home and a new family.(40)FInteract (交流) with your pet a lot and get them used to a routine,and soon you'll be one big happy family!

1.Just 10 years ago,I sat across the desk from a doctor."Yes,"he said,"there is something wrong with the left,upper lobe(肺叶).You have a moderately advanced case…You'll have to give up work at once and go to bed.Later on,we'll see."
Feeling like a man who is in midcareer has suddenly been placed under sentence of death,I left the doctor's office,walked over to the park,and sat down on a bench.I needed to think.In the next 3days,I cleared up my affairs,then I went home,got into bed,and set my watch to tick off not the minutes,but the months.Two years later,I left my bed and began the long climb back.It was another year before I made it.
I speak of this experience because these years that passed so slowly taught me what to value and what to believe.I realise now that this world I'm living in is not my oyster(牡蛎) to be opened but my opportunity to be grasped.Each day,to me,is a precious thing.The sun comes up and presents me with 24brandnew,wonderful hours-not to pass,but to fill.
I've learned to appreciate those little,allimportant things I never thought I had the time to notice before:the play of light on running water,the music of the wind in my favourite pine tree.I seem now to see and hear and feel with some of the recovered freshness of childhood.How well,for instance,I recall the touch of the springy earth under my feet the day I first stepped upon it after the years in bed.
Frequently,I sit back and say to myself,"Let me make note of this moment I'm living right now,because in it I'm well,happy and hard at work doing what I like best to do.It won't always be like this,so while it is,I'll make the most of it-and afterwards,I remember-and be grateful.All this,I owe to that long time spent on the sidelines of life."

2.When I was just 17,my father decided to turn an old guesthouse into a hotel,and he experimented with everything.None of us had ever worked in a hotel before,but my dad was sure of what guests would like to see.
For a month that summer,I served as a waitress,punctual at breakfast and dinner,which gave me the middle of the day free for studying.Like all the others,I did what the instructions said and treated the guests as though they were special visitors in my own home.
I soon learned how to deal with the most upsetting person in the kitchen:the cook,Gordon.He had a great ability to become very angry for no clear reason.I avoided him as much as possible and always took the dishes with a frozen expression on my face which was turned into a sweet smile in the space between kitchen and dining room.
Breakfast waitressing was,I found,more enjoyable than the dinner service.The guests came wandering into the dining room,looking with appreciation at the view of the sea and islands through the dining room window.It was funny how differently people behaved in the evenings,dressed up and talking with louder,colder voices,not always returning my smile.However,that all changed when Dad created a special role for me.
It began with a few common cakes for the guests'packed lunches and progressed to fancy cakes for afternoon teas.This led to the climax(顶点):a nightly show known as Lucy's Sweet Trolley.Every evening,I carried the most amazing collection of cakes and other desserts.Most were things I had invented myself and I had cooked all of them.Some-were Jacobite Grenades,Mocha Genghis Khan and Goat's Milk Bavarios to name a few-were really strange.It was Dad's idea that I should dress smartly and stop at each table and recite the name of each dish.

21.What did the people working at the hotel have in common?D
A.They all understood the guests'expectations.
B.They all studied at the middle of the day.
C.They all had enough experience.
D.They all followed the rules.
22.Why did Lucy enjoy serving breakfasts more than dinners?A
A.The guests were friendlier.
B.There were more types of food to satisfy the guests.
C.The dining room was quieter.
D.The guests dressed up for the beginning of a new day.
23.What was special about the food on Lucy's Sweet Trolley?B
A.It was based on traditional dishes.
B.It contained a number of new creations.
C.It was made following her father's instructions.
D.It was prepared along with the food for lunches.
