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．"

13．I don't like getting up too early unless I have to．When you're filming，you've got make-up on，which doesn't happen often．As I'm not filming at present I'll get up at 8.30．
Work normally means Matt coming over to my house about 10am．We're writing at the moment．We'll chat for a bit before going to my study．One of us will have an idea for a sketch （梗概），we'll talk about the characters and when we feel we have enough we'll start writing．
Matt and I met at the National Youth Theatre in 1990and started doing shows together in'95，at the Edinburgh Fringe festival．We know we're onto something if we've made each other laugh，and that's a really special moment．It's not always like that，but we're comfortable enough with each other that we can be honest and go．Some days you're not in the mood to be funny-like writing when my dad was dying of cancer，or when Matt was separating from his partner．
We stop for lunch and sometimes go to Wagamama in Camden，but the last time we were followed by paparazzi （狗仔队），which gets you down-who wants to be pictured eating noodles？
When I'm not writing with Matt I work on other projects．My second children's book comes out later in the year．It's called Mr．Stink．The first one I dedicated to my three-year-old nephew，Eddie．Both books have been illustrated by Quentin Blake； it's been a thrill to work with him-like 20years ago reading a Roald Dahl book and looking at those drawings，then one day that person illustrates your work…magical．
At 5I go swimming in Soho．My trainer makes me do horrible exercises，but I always feel better after．
Being in all day，I like to go out in the evening and look smart，but not like I've come out of the City．I'm a tall，broad guy and well-dressed．
For dinner I'll meet friends．When you're a single guy it's great to have some good female friends．Or I might take my mum to the theatre，as I know she really appreciates it．I like watching TV comedy shows to see what everyone's doing．When you see something impressive it makes you work harder．I also love Larkin's poems：they don't try to transcend （超越） the commonplace； they're much more straightforward．
Poetry is great to dip into before going to bed，rather than falling asleep reading a novel and being confused over what you've read or not．I haven't had a good night's sleep in seven years； unfortunately，I rely on pills．I've tried everything．If I could wish anything for myself，I'd wish I could sleep better．

67．It can be inferred from the passage thatB．
A．the author spends much time with his friends
B．the author and Matt are both famous in the district
C．the author doesn't care much about what to wear
D．the author works at home and seldom goes out every day
68．Where does the passage most likely appear？C
A．In a travel diary．        B．In a news column．
C．In an online diary．       D．In a research paper．
69．Why does the author read some poetry before going to bed？D
A．Because poetry can often bring him some funny ideas．
B．Because poetry is much easier to understand than novels．
C．Because poetry is very abstract and reflects unusual things．
D．Because poetry can be of some help for him to kill time．
70．What might be the best title for the passage？C
A．A day's work with Matt                 B．A new life-style
C．A life in the day                       D．A good way to write．
