Yes,you are right. I am from South Africa. I am not at all used to cold weather, but I am glad to say that I have all the clothes for the freezing weather.
When I first got to know that I would be attending this international conference here in Finland,I had no idea what kind of clothes I should take along. I didn't know what to do when I thought of this two-week stay here, with a rather formal dinner, a few parties, social gatherings and a dance during the conference.
Fortunately, my friend Julia has been to North Europe. Yes, she was a great help. She helped to solve my biggest problem. She placed an order for some warm suits and dresses, business-type clothes, of course, of dark colors. She also bought me some shirts and blouse so I could wear the same clothes in several different ways. A couple of lively colored dresses will give me a nice change from time to time. She also helped to choose a very warm raincoat and a pair of boots.
Oh, how lucky I am to have a helpful friend. She saved me a lot of trouble.

A
Mark Twain was a famous American writer in his day. He liked to play jokes on his friends. One day one of his friends lost his wallet and asked Mark Twain to pay his train ticket for him.
“But I don't have enough money to pay both your ticket and mine,” Mark Twain said. The friend didn't know what to do.
“We can do this,” said Mark Twain. “We can get on the train and when the conductor comes to check the tickets, you can hide under my seat.”
Later, however, when the conductor came to check the tickets, Mark Twain gave him two tickets — one for himself and one for his friend. Then he explained in a loud voice, “My friend is a strange man. When he travels on a train, he does not like to sit on the seat. He prefers to lie on the floor under the seat.” Of course,

答案:C
B
There is one word that is on the lips of Americans, day and night, “Sorry”.
One time as I was walking on the street, a young man ran by hurriedly, brushing against my handbag. Even as he continued on his way, he turned back and said “sorry” to me. Even in a rush, he didn't forget to apologize.
One day, after I bought some apples, the salesman was giving me the change, but I wasn't ready for it, and a coin dropped on the ground. “I'm sorry”, he said while bending down to pick it up. I was puzzled — why would he apologize when it was my fault?
Another time, I stepped on a man's foot in an escalator (自动扶梯). At the same time, we both said “sorry”. I thought it interesting. Was it really necessary for him to apologize?
Later on, an American friend explained to me that according to the American ideas, the escalator is a public place which everyone should be able to stand in. After someone occupies his position in the escalator, making it difficult for someone else to find a place to stand in, isn't it necessary to express an apology?
During my stay in America, I gradually realized that when friction (摩擦) occurs in daily life Americans don't care much about who is responsible. If someone is troubled, a “sorry” is always necessary. Even if the other person is hurt, the “sorry” would cool tempers. Perhaps I never saw anyone quarreling on the buses, subways or streets in America.
24.When I was walking in the street, ________.
A. a young man wanted to rob me of my bag
B. a young man ran by and wanted to brush my bag
C. a young man said sorry to me for touching my bag
D. a young man came hurriedly to help me with my bag
25.When the salesman gave me the change, ________.
- 13 -
A. I purposely didn't want to accept it from the
salesman
B. the salesman purposely didn't want to pass it to me
C. I was slower to accept it than the salesman to give it to me
D. the salesman was slower to give it to me than I could accept it
26.The man on whose feet I stepped apologized to me because ________.
A. the escalator is a public place
B. the man was very afraid of me
C. the “sorry” said to me was for everyone
D. there wasn't enough room to get my feet in
27.In this passage, the author seems to feel ________ the Americans' “sorry”.
A. angry with
B. disappointed with
C. interested in
D. approving of (赞成)
答案与解析:
24.解析:事实细节题。由第二段“... a young man ran by hurriedly, brushing against my handbag ... said ‘sorry’ to me.”可知答案。
答案:C
25.解析:细节理解题。由第三段“... I wasn't ready for it, and a coin dropped on the ground”可知“我伸手接钱慢了”。
答案:C
26.解析:细节理解题。由倒数第二段“After someone occupies his position in the escalator, making it difficult for someone else to find a place to stand in, isn't it necessary to express an apology?”可知答案为D。
答案:D

C
I never thought I would have a lifechanging experience at Wal-Mart.
Although my thoughts were only on speed, the checkout line I was standing in wasn't moving as quickly as I wanted, and I glanced toward the cashier.
There stood a man in his seventies, wearing glasses and a nice smile. I thought, well, he's an old guy!
For the next few minutes I watched him. He greeted every customer before scanning the items. Sure, his words were the usual, “ How's it going?”. But he did something different—he actually listened to people. Then he would respond to what they had said and engage them in brief conversations.
I thought it was odd. I has grown accustomed to people asking me how I was doing simply out of a robotic conversational habit. After a while, you don't give any thought to the question and just mumble something back. I could say,“I just found out I have six months to live,” and someone would reply, “Have a great day!”
But that wasn't the end.
He gave them the change, walked around the counter, and extended his right hand
- 13 -
in an act of friendship. He looked the customers in the eyes. “I sure want to thank you for shopping here today,” he told them. “You have a great day. Bye-bye.”
The looks on the faces of the customers were priceless. There were smiles and some sheepish grins. All had been touched by his simple gesture—and in a place they never expected. They would gather their things and walk out, smiling.
Of course, he did the same to me and I got to know his name, Marty.
Who was that guy? It was as if Sam_Walton had come back from the dead and invaded this old guy's body.
I had never walked away from that shop feeling like that.
28.The checkout line the writer was standing in moved slower than expected because ________.
A.the cashier couldn't work as fast as others
B.there were some big purchases
C.the cashier did more than scanning the items
D.the writer was not patient enough
29.According to the writer, when common people ask you “How's it going?” ________.
A.they don't really care what you may answer
B.they are just practicing their conversation ability
C.they are inquiring about your private information
D.they don't expect to hear any negative answers
30.What can we infer about Sam Walton?
A.He might be Marty's father or grandfather.
B.He might be friendly and devoted to Wal-Mart.
C.He might have died while working in the market.
D.He might have come back from the dead once before.
31.What does the writer intend to express through the text?
A.Our everyday life is always full of surprises.
B.Most customers enjoy being treated this way.
C.Being different is a good way of doing business.
D.A little positive action can make a big difference.
答案与解析:
28.解析:细节理解题。由第四段的But he did something different—he actually listened to people. Then he would respond to what they had said and engage them in brief conversations.可以看出,他做了一些不同的事情——事实上,他听人们说话,然后他会回应人们所说的话,并且使人们加入一些简短的交谈。
答案:C
29.解析:细节理解题。由第五段的I has grown accustomed to people asking me how I was doing simply out of a robotic conversational habit. After a while, you don't give any thought to the question and just mumble something back.“我”习惯于人们处于机械的谈话习惯问“我”过得怎么样。过一会,你根本就不考虑仅仅是含糊地回应一下,可知选A。
答案:A
30.解析:推理判断题。从Marty对顾客的热情及倒数第二段的叙述可以看出,Sam Walton也是一个友好的人,忠诚于自己的岗位。
答案:B
31.解析:作者意图题。文章开头作者提到了I never thought I would have a lifechanging experience at Wal-Mart.作者在沃尔玛有改变生活的经历。而下文提到All had been touched by his simple gesture ...所有人都被他简单的动作感动了。可知选D。
答案:D

“Let's go Dutch, shall we?” Jim said to his friends in a restaurant after a dinner. What did Jim mean?

At that time, the British and the Dutch were war enemies. So when British people talked about something wrong or bad, they would like to use the word “Dutch”.
A common expression heard a few years ago was in Dutch. A friend might tell you, “You are in Dutch. The teacher is angry with you. Be careful!” When a soldier took Dutch leave, he left the army without permission, Dutch courage was the false courage produced by the effects of drinking wine.

A.talks like a Dutch uncle
B.would take Dutch leave
C.had Dutch courage
D.had a Dutch treat
答案与解析:
32.解析:句意猜测题。由第二段最后两句可知“Let's go Dutch”的意思是“各付各的账”,即“AA制”。故B项正确。
答案:B
33.解析:细节理解题。由第三段的最后一句可知D项正确。
答案:D
34.解析:推理判断题。由第四段中的“You are in Dutch. The teacher is angry with you. Be careful!”可知,“in Dutch”通常用于表示“有麻烦”。
答案:C
35.解析:细节理解题。由最后一段中的“That is talking like a Dutch uncle. The Dutch were known for the strict and serious way they educated their children.”可知A项正确。

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
What is your favourite colour? Do you like yellow, orange, red? __36__ Do you prefer greys and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be pessimist. At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of colour preference, as well as the effect that colours have on human beings. __37__ If you happen to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.
__38__ A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. __39__ A black bridge over the Thames River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides (自杀) than any other bridge in the area——until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply. Perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.
__40__ It is an established fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or grey.
A. On the other hand, black is depressing.
B. They tell us, among other facts, that we do not choose our favourite colour as we grow up — we are born with our preference.
C. The rooms are painted in different colours as you like.
D. If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement.
E. Light and bright colours make people not only happier but more active.
F. Life is like a picture or a poem, full of different colours.
G. Colours do influence our moods — there is no doubt about it.

I still remember my middle school life in that small town. I am then in a school for students from Tibet. As we all left home at a early age, we met lots of problems in our daily life. We had to do the washing, cleaning and shopping by us. However, we seldom felt lonely or helplessly. We enjoyed our happy life.

范文:
I often imagine what my life would be like in the future. I think my life will be very different in ten years. I will be twenty-eight years old by then. I will have my own family, probably with a lovely child. I hope I will work in a computer company as a program designer. I will enjoy my work and get along well with my colleagues. I will do a good job in whatever I do. In my free time, I will continue to take a regular exercise, such as swimming, running and various ball games. On my holidays, I will travel around the world. In a word, my life will be much richer and more colorful.
