(A )
Frank Woolworth was born in Rodman, New York., in 1852. His
family were very poor farmers, and there was never enough to eat.
Frank decided he did not want to be farmer. He took a short
business course, and went to work as a salesman in a large
city.
Woolworth realized he had a natural skill for showing goods to
attract people’s interest, but he soon learned something more
important. One day his boss told him to sell some odds and ends
(小商品 ) for as much as he could get. Frank put all these things on
one table with a sign which said FIVE CENTS EACH. People fought and
pushed to buy the things and the table was soon cleared.
Soon afterwards, Woolworth opened his own store., selling goods
at five and ten cents. But he had another lesson to learn before he
became successful. That is, if you want to make money by selling
low-price goods, you have to buy them in large quantities directly
form the factories. Once, for example, Woolworth went to Germany
and placed an order for knives. The order was so large that the
factory had to keep running 24 hours a day for a whole year. In
this way, the price of the knives was cut down by half.
By 1919, Woolworth had over 1000 stores in the US and Canada,
and opened his first store in London. He made many millions and his
name became famous throughout the world. He always run his business
according to strict rules, of which the most important was: “ THE
CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT.”

B. knives were ordered in
large quantities directly from the factory.
C. the knives were made in

( B )
About ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in
some way. Women are luckier; only about one in two hundred is
affected in this matter. Perhaps, after all, it is safer to be
driven by a woman!
There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a
man may not be able to see deep red. He may think that red, orange
and yellow are all shadows of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell
the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man
may see everything in shades of green - a strange world indeed.
Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain.
In a single eye there are millions of very small things called
“cones”. These help us to see in a bright light and to tell
difference between colors. There are also millions of “rods”, but
these are used for seeing when it is near dark. They show us shape
but no color.
Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes prefer blue to
yellow. A red light will not attract insects, but a blue lamp will.
In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are
lucky. With the aid of the cones in our eyes we can see many
beautiful colors by day, and with the aid of the rods we can see
shapes at night. One day we may even learn more about the invisible
colors around us.
66. The passage is mainly about _____________.
A. color and its surprising
effects.
B. women being luckier than
men
C. danger caused by color
blindness
D. color blindness
67. According to the passage, with the help of the “cones”, we
can_______________.
A. tell different
shapes
B. see in a weak light
C. kill
mosquitoes
D. tell orange from yellow
68. Why do some people say it is safer to be driven by
women?
A. Women are more
careful.
B. There are fewer
color-blind women
C. Women are fonder of
driving than men.
D. Women are weaker but
quicker in thinking.
69. Which of the statements about the color- blind is true?
A. Not all of them have the
same problem in recognizing color.
B. None of them can see
deep red.
C. None of them can tell
the difference between blue and green.
D. All of them see
everything in shades of green.
70. We can attract and kill mosquitoes by using a
_____________.
A. red
light
B. yellow light
C. blue
light
D. green light
( C )
Rome had the Forum (论坛).
London has Speaker’s Corner. Now always-on-the-go New Yorkers have
Liz and Bill.
Liz and Bill, two college
graduates in their early 20s, have spent a whole year trying to
have thousands of people talk to them in subway stations and on
busy street comers. And just talk.
Using a 2-foot-tall sign
that says, “ Talk to Me,” they attract conversationalists, who one
evening included a mental patient, and men in business suits.
They don’t collect money.
They don’t push religion (宗教). So what’s the point?
“ To see what happens,”
said Liz. “ We simply enjoy life with open talk.”
Shortly after the September
11, 2001 attacks, they decided to walk from New York City to
Washington, a 270-mile trip. They found they loved talking to
people along the way and wanted to continue talking with strangers
after their return.
“ It started as a crazy
idea.” Liz said. “ We were so curious about all the strangers
walking by with their life stories. People will talk to us about
anything: their job, their clothes, their childhood experiences,
anything.”
Denise wanted to talk about
an exam she was about to take. She had stopped by for the second
time in two days, to let the two listeners know how it went.
Marcia had led her husband
to a serious disease. “That was very heavy on my mind.” Marcia
said. “ To be able to talk about it to total strangers was very
good,” she explained.
To celebrate a year of
talking, the two held a get-together in a city park for all the
people they had met over the past year. A few hundred people
appeared, as well as some television cameramen and reporters.
They may plan more parties
or try to attract more people to join their informal talks. Some
publishers have expressed interest in a book, something the two say
they’ll consider before making a decision.
71. What did Liz and Bill determined to do after the attack on
September 11, 2001?
A. Telling stories to
strangers.
B. Setting up street signs.
C. Talking with
people
D. Organizing a speaker’s party.
72. What they have been doing can be described as
____________.
A. pointless
(无意义的)
B. normal( 正常的)
C.
crazy
D. successful
73. Why are Denise and Marcia mentioned in the text?
A. They knew Liz and Bill
very well.
B. They happened to meet
the writer of the text.
C. They organized the
get-together in the city park.
D. They are examples of
those who talked to Liz and Bill.
74. What will Liz and Bill do in the future?
A. Go in for
publishing
B. Do more television programs.
C. Continue what they are
doing
D. Spend more time reading books.
75. How do they like the idea of writing a book?
A. They have decided to
wait a year or two. B. They will think about it
carefully
C. They agreed
immediately
D. They find it hard to do that.
