   Sunday lunch at my sister-in-law,s. We,re discussing a new horror film in which our 13-year-old,acting-mad,nephew Caspar landed a small role. Though everyone wants to see him in his first feature film,his mum wont see the film (too scary) and neither will his uncle (my husband) .

   For years now,my husband and I have been having discussions on whether or not it's good to be scared by art. I'm still upset that I didn’ t go to see The Blair Witch Project because he wouldn 51 come and I didn't dare to go alone. ‘The things in the movie just stay with me” he says. ' They haunt (萦绕在……心头) me.

   I dont like watching violence either,but it doesnt haunt me afterwards because nothing that I saw is ever much worse than the dark material that already exists in my own head. As a novelist,I know I write about the things that frighten me 一 loss,fear,the raw black edges of life. Being allowed to do this makes me feel safe because I know I can pull back from these things at any time.

   Speaking of fear,I remember my visit to a Victorian prison a few years ago in order to research a novel. I paid my money and went in,following the yellow arrowed path that led into a maze (迷宫) of dark cells. After two minutes,I realized that a) I was alone,b) it was extremely dark,c) I could hear someone crying,and d) I had no idea how much more there was. Yet e) if I turned back now,I could easily lose my way and no one would hear me screaming down there.

   There was no going back. My heart was beating hard and I could hear the pounding of my own blood as I made my way deeper and deeper into the wet and cold stone maze. When I finally came out and saw the sunlight,I was shaking and sweaty.

   I haven’t thought about it in a long time,but,while writing this,I just googled it,only to discover that it's one of the most haunted sites in Britain. Now they tell me!

   If chocolate were found to be seriously addictive,then the UK would need to find a way to kick the habit. The British lead the world in their love of the cocoa-based treat. As a product,chocolate has a lot of advantages,appealing to all ages,both sexes and all income groups.

   Although Eastern Europe provides another promising market,few markets challenge the UK in terms of current confectionery (甜食) consumption. In the US,each American eats a mere 10 kg of confectionery per person a year,whereas UK consumers each manage 16 kg. In Europe,where the chocolate market is considered to be worth over $18. 5 billion,the UK accounts for almost a third of that total,followed some way behind by Germany,France and Italy.

   Around 60% of all confectionery is bought without planning. Impulse buying makes the development of a strong brand image vital,and large long-established brands control the market. Building up these brands costs serious money. Media cost on confectionery is higher than that for any other impulse market.

   Innovation (创新) is also very important for ongoing success,despite the chocolate market being controlled by consistent performers. The chocolate company Mars once launched(投放市场) fFlyte’claiming to be their first mainstream brand to address the demand for lower fat products. Another Mars launch,Celebrations,is claimed by the company's annual review to be showing signs of ‘revolutionising the boxed chocolates market by attracting new,younger customers'. ‘Traditionally,he boxed chocolates market hasn't changed very much. People who buy these products tend to be older and female. With Celebrations,we are finding that younger people and men are buying because the chocolates don't come in the traditional-shaped box — they look different” a Mars spokesman says.

   One feature of the chocolate industry in recent years has been the emergence of special editions. Producers believe that special editions offer the consumer a new and exciting variation of a product,while suggesting the same consistent quality they associate with familiar brands. Since special editions are only available for a few weeks,they also have a unique quality about them. Far from reducing sales of the straight version,limited editions appear to simply increase overall sales.

6. What's the author's attitude towards the British's chocolate addiction?

   A. Uncaring. B. Doubtful.

   C. Objective. D. Dissatisfied.

7. Paragraph 2 is mainly developed by.

8. The underlined words “Impulse buying” in Paragraph 3 refer to buying something.

   A. suddenly when you see it

   B. quickly when you need it G. because it is famous

   D. because it is cheap

9. Who are most likely to buy “Flyte”?

   A. Fashion followers.

   B. Middle-aged men.

   C. Regular customers.

   D. Weight-conscious women.

   It turns out,talking to strangers is not so bad after all.

   At least for a North Carolina teen,who went to Target,the second-largest discount retailer(零售商) in the United States,to look for a clip-on tie(卡夹式 领带) for a job interview. 36 .

   Audrey Mark told CNN she was shopping at a store in Raleigh on Wednesday when she noticed something unusual.

   “I see this young teen being serviced by this Target employee,” Mark said.

   37 . The employee was not just tying the teen's tie,he was sharing some wisdom as well.

   “I hear him preparing him with all this advice on interview skills and handshakes,” she told CNN.

   38 .

   “I asked him if he needed help,and he told me he needed clip-on ties,” Scott told CNN. “We didn’ t have any."

   She turned to her co-worker,Dennis Roberts,and asked him if he knew how to tie a regular tie. 39 .

   But Scott and Roberts went a step further and prepared the teen for his interview.

   “We said ,‘Make sure you look him in the eye.’ I'm saying,‘Make sure you give him a firm handshake” ” Roberts said. 

   Mark took a picture.

   “ 40 she told CNN. “He leaves and all these Target employees are screaming ‘Bye!Good luck!Tell us how it went/ I got so emotional. I even got teary."

   A. Employee Cathy Scott said the teen walked into the store looking for a tie

   B. The teen appears to have had a good initial interview at the restaurant

   C. He said yes,so the teen bought one and handed it to Roberts

   D. It was a very quiet,simple moment,but it was significant

   E. We are inviting him back to have his second interview

   F. Instead,he became the subject of a touching moment

   G. Curious,she got closer to see what was going on

   Becoming a lexicographer(词典编纂者) was completely an accident. I came across a want ad for an editorial assistant. I got called for the interview and found out it was for Merriam-Webster. I thought, “Oh,I could do that." Within a couple of months,I realized this was exactly what I needed to do.

   My job is to define new words and update old ones. When I first started,I thought I'd keep a list of words I wrote new entries for. I gave up after a year and a 50-page-long list. The list would grow long and never end. At this point when people ask how many words I've entered,I can't tell them. I have probably looked at every single entry in all of our dictionaries.

   To be a new entry,a word must meet three criteria. First,widespread use. Second,it has to have sustained(持续的) usage over a certain period of time (usually years) . People think of the dictionary as being the bleeding edge,but it's not. By the time a word is in a dictionary,most people have at least seen it. Third,it has to have a meaning.

   Most words don't enter the language in a smooth way. Words will drop out,then increase in use again. There's an uneven upward trend. AIDS,I think,we entered within a year of its first use. It was clear it was not going away anytime soon.

   I've been at this job for almost 17 years. That's kind of crazy in this day and age,but it doesn't get boring. At some time you will have had enough of doing the same work over and over again,but you can find things that are new and fresh and interesting.

24. The author's job as a lexicographer .

   A. was her dream job

   B. disappointed her at first

   C. went beyond her expectations

   D. was due to several months of effort

25. Why did the author give up on her new entry list?

   A. She felt it was useless.

   B. There were too many entries.

   C. There was no need to keep it.

   D. She was too busy to stick to it.

26. What does the underlined part “the bleeding edge” in Paragraph 3 mean?

   A. Something that is new.

   B. Something that is right.

   C. Something that is formal.

   D. Something that is powerful.

27. What does the author think about her job?

   A. She likes it.

   B. She finds it boring.

   C. She is crazy about it.

   D. She feels it is challenging.
