阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中, 选出最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
Our neighbour's son was getting married at an out-of-town church, and my husband and I were invited. We immediately rushed out to a store, and I bought a nice pink dress with a jacket. The dress was a little tight, but I had a month to go before the June 30 wedding and I would lose a few pounds.
June 29 came and, of course, I hadn't lost a single pound; in fact I had gained two. But I figured a nice new girdle (紧身内衣) would cure everything. So on our way out of the city we stopped once again at the store. I ran in and told the clerk I needed a large-size girdle. The shop assistant found the box with the described girdle marked "LG", and asked if I would like to try it on. “Oh, no, a large will fit just right. I needn't try it on.”
The next morning was rather hot, so I waited to get dressed until about 45 minutes before time to go. I opened the box only to find a new girdle in a small size. Since it was too late to find another one and the dress wouldn't fit right without a girdle, a fight broke out in the hotel room between me and the girdle. Have you ever tried to shake 20 pounds of potatoes into a five-pound bag? That's it. Finally my husband, laughing like crazy, got hold of each side and shook me down into it. At once I put on the pink dress, which didn't match my red face well, and was ready to go.
Finally we got to the church. I heard one of the people say that they were having a High Mass. I turned to my husband and asked, "What is a High Mass?" He shrugged his shoulders.
Unfortunately, I learned that this particular mass would last one hour, twenty-two minutes and eight and one half seconds—the priest (神父) was going to bless everything except my girdle.
46. The author most probably bought a nice pink dress with a jacket ______.
A. 4 weeks later B. 4 weeks ago C. a fortnight ago D. a fortnight later
47. What had the author wanted to do with the tight dress?
A. To make herself thinner. B. To buy a large-size girdle.
C. To put on some weight. D. To shake herself into it.
48. Which of the following statements about the author is TRUE according to the story?
A. She was very lucky to buy a girdle to go with her dress.
B. She had no choice but to put on the dress without a girdle.
C. She complained to the shop assistant about her carelessness.
D. She managed to put on the girdle with her husband’s help.
49. The purpose of this passage is ______.
A. to show a husband’s selfless love B. to share an interesting experience
C. to describe a changeable girdle D. to tell us how to keep calm in trouble
50. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. A Funny Wedding B. A Wise Decision C. A Tight Situation D. A Fierce Fight
