8．There was one thing that I found rather strange on my first day as housekeeper at Monk'S House．The floors in the house were very thin．The bathroom was right above the kitchen，and when Mrs．Woolf was having her bath before breakfast，I could hear her talking to herself．on and on she went，talk，talk，and talk，asking questions and giving herself the answers．I thought there must be two or three people there with her．When Mr．Woolf saw that I looked surprised，he told me that Mrs．Woolf always said out loud the sentences that she had written during the night．She needed to know if they sounded fight and the bath was a good place for trying them out．
I was not allowed to make coffee at Monk'S House-Mr．and Mrs．Woolf were very particular
（特别的）about coffee and always made it themselves-so Mr．Woolf came into the kitchen at eight o'clock every morning to make it．When we carried the breakfast to Mrs．Woolf's room，I noticed that she had always been working during the night．There were pencil and paper beside her bed so that when she woke up，she could work，and sometimes it seemed as though she had had very little sleep．
Mrs．Woolf's bedroom was outside the house in the garden．I used to think how inconvenient（不方便的）it must be to have to go out in the rain to go to bed．Her bedroom had been connected to the back of the house：the door faced the garden and a window at the side opened out on to a field．Because the writing-room was small，Mr．Woolf had built a large one for her at the end of the garden against the church wall．
I can always remember her coming to the house each day from the writing-room when I rang the bell for lunch at One O'clock．She used to come in，smoking one of her favourite cigarettes，which were bought by Mr．Woolf for her in London．She was tall and thin and very pretty．She had large eyes and a wide mouth．She wore long skirts-usually blue or brown-in the fashion of the day，and silk jackets of the same colour Mrs．Woolf wore clothes that suited for her well．I ironed them for her and did any sewing that was necessary-She was not able to sew，although sometimes she liked to try．There was one thing in the kitchen that Mrs．Woolf was very good at doing：she could make beautiful bread．

7．A new TV series in England，Away from it all，has surprised everyone by becoming a huge success with young people across the country．Its success is surprising because the series is about the relaxing lifestyles of people who live in the country．There is none of the action that we usually see on TV today．There are also no stressful moments，busy offices or crowded cities．Away from it all is set in the peaceful English countryside and tells simple stories about people's kindness．

6．根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词．
As we know，museums are building where many valuable and important objects are kept so that people can go and see them．For example，art museums are places where people can learn about v（72）ariouscultures．More and more popular"design museums"that are opening today，however，perform quite a different role．U（73）nlikemost are museums，the design museum shows objects that are easily found in our daily life，such as fridges and washing machines．
The a（74）dvantageof design museums is that they are places where people feel familiar with the exhibits（展品）．Being different from the art museum visitors，design museum visitors s（75）eldomfeel frightened or puzzled．This is partly because design museums clearly show how and why mass-products（批量产品） work and look as they do，and how design has i（76）mprovedthe quality of our lives．Art museum exhibits，on the other hand，would most probably fill visitors with a feeling that there is something b（77）eyondtheir understanding．
Several new design museums have opened their doors in r（78）ecentyears．Each of these museums has tried to satisfy（满足） the public's growing interest in the field with new i（79）deas．London's Design Museum，for example，shows a collection of mass-produced objects from electric typewriters to a group of Italian fish-tins．The choices open to design museums seem f（80）arless strict than those to art museum，and visitors may also sense（感觉到） the humorous part of our society while walking around such exhibits as interesting and unusually attractive toys c（81）ollectedfrom our everyday life．
