  Millions of women use cosmetics,often called "makeup". The cosmetics industry is one of the biggest in the world. Most large stores sell cosmetics,and there are always shops at air?ports selling them cheaply. The word "cosmetics" refers to anything that people put on their faces to make them look better. Lipstick,face powder and cream,and eye makeup are the most popular. Although more women than men use cosmetics,there are cosmetics for men as well as women.

Some people even have cosmetic surgery to make their faces look different. They have the shape of their noses and eyes changed.

The most widely used cosmetic is probably lipstick,as many women who do not wear any other makeup will often put on a little lipstick.

Lipstick is made by mixing together different oils and colors. This mixture is then allowed to get hard and is cut into the shape of a small pencil. When a woman presses the lipstick to her lips,the end of it becomes soft,and some of it sticks to her lips,giving them extra color.

Cosmetics were probably first used in India,but it was the Egyptians,six thousand years ago,who made the most use of them. Rich Egyptian women painted their eyes green and black. They used a red color to paint pretty designs on their fingernails,the palms of their hands and the soles of their feet. Pictures of Cleopatra always show her wearing a lot of makeup.

The Romans also used cosmetics. They liked to make their skin very white and to paint their eyes. They also used a kind of lipstick.

In England at one time,very rich women had baths in milk to make their skin beautiful. They also used a lot of sweetsmelling powder to stop people smelling their bodies,which were often very dirty because they did not wash very often or change their clothes.

At one time,some cosmetics were not safe. They were bad for the skin,and some of the lipsticks and powders that people used were even poisonous. Nowadays,people in the cosmetics industry take great care to make sure that everything they use is completely safe.

(   ) 5. Which of the following cosmetics is probably most widely used?

   A. all cosmetics were harmful to people

   B. people never used cosmetics on the eyes

   C. poisonous cosmetics were never used on the skin

   D. not all cosmetics were harmful to the skin

(   ) 8. What is the main meaning of the passage?

   A. Cosmetic surgery is the only method to make people different.

   B. People,women or men,ancient or present,love to be different.

   C. Cosmetics were probably first used by the Egyptians six thousand years ago.

My first English novel was Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice,recommended by many Eng?lish teachers and professors as an ideal book for English learners. But my experience was some?what disastrous"艮糟的) .Stumbling (摇摇晃晃的) along the lines,I had great difficulty in under?standing the novel,let alone enjoying it. It's not the vocabulary that troubled me,but rather the way Austen constructs sentences,and her way of thinking,which seemed too remote to me at that time. My fading enthusiasm was much recovered after reading Hemingway's novel Farewell to Arms. No long and complicated sentences. And I particularly liked his concise (简明的) and straightforward style. So my first suggestion is,as a beginner,you'd better choose contemporary novels instead of classical ones. You can easily engage yourself in reading,get fun out of it,and gradually build up confidence. I do not mean to exclude (不在考虑之列) classi?cal novels for ever. Actually,the second reading of Pride and Prejudice greatly pleased me (probably the result of my improved English comprehension) . It is only that classical novels are less accessible (易接近的) to beginners due to their language styles and social background. I'd like to recommend three contemporary novelists to you―Ursula Le Guin,Ernest Hemingway,and Doris Lessing.

However,reading novels is not the only way to improve your English. In fact,if you re?strict yourself to novels,you will miss a lot of treasures. English essays can at once inform you,entertain you,and refine your taste in English. The best example is Bertrand Russell's work. Its language is plain,yet you cannot help feeling the elegance (雅致) and the peculiar sense of hu?mor. His simple language enables his philosophy within the reach of ordinary people. Here comes my second suggestion―essays are indispensable (必不可少的) .

My last advice is never follow others' recommendations and opinions blindly,however fa?mous or influential the person might be. We should be open to various ideas,but always think and determine for ourselves. As a saying goes,one man's meat is another man's poison. With that in mind,we are bound to find out our favorite writers through reading and develop our fine taste in English.

(   ) 5. What does the underlined phrase "let alone" mean in the first paragraph?

   A. Lacking companions.

   B. On your own.

   C. Not to mention.

   D. Without anybody or anything else.

(   ) 6. What is a shortcoming of restricting yourself only to novels according to the author?

   A. The value of novels is really limited.

   B. The style of novels is not worth appreciating.

   C. We may overleap many other worthy treasures in reading.

   D. We can't enjoy ourselves while reading novels.

(   ) 7. What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?

   A. Sharing some experiences on how to choose the appropriate books,especially as a beginner.

   B. English essay is another treasure to improve your English.

   C. We shouldn't follow others' recommendations and opinions blindly.

   D. We'd better choose contemporary novels instead of classical ones.

(   ) 8. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?

   A. It Is Not Enough for One to Understand the Novel

   B. To Cultivate One's Taste in English Prose,the Most Effective Way Is to Read English Books Extensively

   C. Reading English Novels Can Also Improve One's English

   D. We Shouldn't Restrict Ourselves to Reading
