One or two days a week--- usually Thursday and / or Friday--- some large food shops stay open until about 8:00 p.m. for late night shopping. Many shops are closed in the afternoon one day a week. The day is usually Wednesday or Thursday and it is a different day in different towns. Nearly all shops are closed on Sundays. Newspaper shops are open in the morning, and sell sweets and cigarettes as well. But not all the things can be sold on Sundays. Usually it is not difficult for foreign visitors to find where to buy things. Most shops sell the things that you want to buy. One problem is stamps. In Britain you can only buy these at post offices. Many large food shops are self-service. When you go into one of these shops, you take a basket and you put the things you wish to buy into this. You pay for everything just before you leave. If anyone tries to take things from a shop without paying they are almost certain to be caught, because most shops have detectives. When you are waiting to be served in a shop, it is important not to try to be served before people who arrive before you. Many foreign people are surprised at the British way of queuing. 44. According to the passage, which of the following sentences is NOT true? A. Some large food shops open for about 11 hours on Thursday or Friday. B. Many shops are closed in the afternoon once a week on Tuesday. C. Only a few things can be bought on Sundays. D. It is not difficult for foreign visitors to buy things in Britain. 45. You can not buy ___________ in shops. A. cigarettes B. sweets C. stamps D. clothes 46. Which of the following is the best title? A. Shops in Britain. B. How to Buy Things in Britain. C. Something about Britain D. How Long Are the Britain Shops Open? ( B ) What is the sky? Where is it? How high is it? What lies above the sky? I am sure you have often asked these questions. They are very difficult to answer, aren’t they? If someone asks you: “What color is the sky?” I think maybe you will answer “Blue”. I am afraid you are wrong. The sky has no colors. When we see blue, it is the sunlight that is shining on little bits of dust in the air. Is the sky full of air? I am sure you have asked this question, too. We know that there is air all around the earth. Planes can’t fly without air. They need air to lift their wings. Planes can’t fly very high because as they go higher, the air gets thinner. If we go too high up in the sky, we find there is no air. Perhaps you can answer some of the questions now. What is the sky? Nothing. Where is it? It is all around the earth. The sky is a part of space. 47. What color is the sky according to the writer? A. Blue. B. White. C. Black. D. Colorless. 48. What is in the sky? A. It’s empty. B. It’s full of air. C. It has clouds. D. It has rains. 49. What is the meaning of the underlined word “dust”? A. 灰尘 B. 乌云 C 空气 D 雨滴 ( C ) Mails, games, music, news, chat rooms and shopping! The Internet is part of the way we live today. It’s easy to get onto the Internet. The only thing we need to do is to use a modem（调制解调器） which is used for connecting a computer to a telephone line. The Internet is changing and growing all the time. More and more people have computers and use the Internet. Using the Internet means surfing the World Wide Web(That’s the ‘www’ you always hear about.). The Web has large numbers of websites in it. They are the places you go to get information and do things. Where do these websites come from? They are made by web designers(设计师). What happens when you click on a word or a picture? You are sent to another page. It’s all because of the web designer. Web designers do a lot of work by using a computer programming language. Is web design all about computer programming? No. It’s about making something new. Web designers must imagine a lot when they are making a website. It must look good and be fun to use. A big part of Web design is art. They choose the best pictures and colors to make the web site look good. They also write the things that you see on the website. An important part of their job is to share ideas with the website manager about how to design the website well. 50. This passage is mainly about ___________.

Sometimes they will be unhappy if they are caught stealing by other people. Most thieves will save themselves by making up stories when they are in trouble. A small shop sold a lot of nice jewelry, and the owner was always careful to look after the things. One day when a thief came and tried to take a beautiful necklace, the owner of the shop caught him at once and went to call the police to come. “Please don’t do that!” the thief said. “I have a wife and three children at home. And I will pay for the necklace.” The owner of the shop felt sorry for the man and he didn’t want to have trouble with the police, so he agreed that the man should pay for the necklace. But when he gave the necklace to the thief and asked him to pay the money, the man looked surprised and said, “ I don’t want to get anything as expensive as that. Do you have anything cheaper?” 15.
