摘要：47．A．confusing B．remembering C．wondering D．worrying Section C When I was 19, I had got a job in my local bookstore. Living in the large city, I usually saw many strange customers, most of 48 were teenagers. They didn’t come often; I forgot all 49 two. One night a 15-year-old girl came in 50 for a book with a boy. They seemed to be the usual type to get 51 they longed for. But 52 they came to the counter, the girl found she was a dollar or two short to buy a book. and she pulled out all her money to prove it. She looked so disappointed. Just then I remembered my discount card and it was 53 active,so I told the girl 54 to worry. I put in my code, being happpy that I could help them with this card. 55 the book in her hand she gave me a thankful smile, and then she and the boy got out of the store happily, leaving me feeling content,too. In fact sometimes a little thing can also make one’s world beautiful. PART THREE: READING COMPREHENSION Directions:Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D．Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage. Beauty has always been regarded as something praiseworthy. Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier and healthier, have better marriages and have more respectable jobs. Personal advisors give them better advice for finding jobs. Even judges are softer on attractive defendants. But in the executive circle, beauty can become a liability. While attractiveness is a positive factor for a man on his way up the executive leader, it is harmful to a woman. Handsome male executives were considered as having more honesty than plainer men: effort and ability were thought to lead to their success. Attractive female executives were considered to have less honesty than unattractive ones; their success was connected not with ability but with factors such as luck.. All unattractive women executives were thought to have more honesty and to be more capable than the attractive female executives. Interestingly, though, the rise of the unattractive overnight successes was connected more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of the attractive overnight successes. Why are attractive women not thought to be able? An attractive woman is considered to be more feminine and an attractive man more manly than the less attractive ones. Thus, an attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs, but an attractive woman in a traditionally manly position appears to lack the “manly qualities required. This is true even in politics. “When the only clue is how he or she looks, people treat men and women differently, says Anne Brown, who recently published a study on the effects of attractiveness on political candidates. She asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs, one of men and one of women, in order of attractiveness. The students were told the photographs were of candidates for political offices. They were asked to rank them again, in the order they would vote for them. The results showed that attractive males completely defeated unattractive men, but women who had ranked most attractive unchangeably received the fewest votes.

　 BEUING －Eating at a Beijing restaurant is usually an "adventure for foreigners, and particularly when they get the chance to order "chicken without sex life" or "red burned lion head．

Sometimes excited but mostly confused, embarrassed or even terrified, many foreigners have long complained about mistranslations of Chinese dishes．And their complaints are often valid, but such an experience at Beijing's restaurants will apparently soon be history．

Foreign visitors will no longer, hopefully, be confused by oddly worded restaurant menus in the capital if the government's plan to correctly translate 3,000 Chinese dishes is a success and the translations are generally adopted．

The municipal(市政） office of foreign affairs has published a book to recommend translations of Chinese dishes, which aims to help restaurants avoid bizarre translations．It provides the names of' main dishes of famous Chinese cuisines in plain English," an official with the city's Foreign Affairs Office said．" Restaurants are encouraged to use the proposed translations, but it will not be compulsory”．It's the city's latest effort to bridge the culture gap for foreign travellers in China．

Coming up with precise translations" is a daunting task, as some Chinese culinary techniques are untranslatable and many Chinese dishes have no English－language equivalent. The translators, after conducting a study of Chinese restaurants in English - speaking countries, divided the dish names into four categories: ingredients, cooking method, taste and name of a person or a place． For some traditional dishes, pinyin, the Chinese phonetic system, is used, such as mapo tofu （previously often literally translated as "beancurd made by woman with freckles"), baozi（ steamed stuffed bun）and jiaozi （ dumplings）to "reflect the Chinese culture," according to the book．

　 "The book is a blessing to tourist guides like me． Having it, I don't have to rack my brains trying to explain Chinese dishes to foreign travellers," said Zheng Xiaodong, a 31 – year - old employee with a Beijing - based travel agency．

　 "I will buy the book as I major in English literature and I'd like to introduce Chinese cuisine culture to more foreign friends," said Han Yang, a postgraduate student at the University of International Business and Economics．

　 It is not clear if the book will be introduced to other parts of China． But on Tuesday, this was the most discussed topic on weibo．com, China's most popular microblogging site．　　

59．What's the best title of the passage?

　 A．An adventure for foreigners who eat in Beijing．

　　 B．Confusing mistranslations of Chinese dishes

　 C．Chinese dishes to have "official" English names

　 D．The effort to bridge the culture gap

　　 A．some Chinese dishes are not well received

　　 B．some Chinese dishes are hard to trans1ate

　 C．some Chinese dishes are mistranslated
