His purpose is settled and decided in advance. He knows what he wants, and his objective is to find it and buy it; the price is a secondary consideration. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it in stock, the salesman promptly produces it, and the business of trying it on goes forward at once. All being well, the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes, with hardly any chat and to everyone's satisfaction. For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants, or does not have exactly what he wants. In that case the salesman, as the name implies, tries to sell the customer something else, he offers the nearest he can to the article required. No good salesman brings out such a substitute without least consideration; he does so with skill and polish(完美): “I know this jacket is not the style you want, sir, but would you like to try it for size. It happens to be the color you mentioned." Few men have patience with this treatment, and the usual response is: “This is the right color and may be the right size but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on.Now how does a woman go about buying clothes? In almost every respect she does so in the opposite way. Her shopping is not often based on need. She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is only “having a look round". She is always open to persuasion: indeed she sets great store by what the saleswoman tells her, even by what companions tell her. She will try on any number of things. Uppermost in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Contrary to a lot of jokes, most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes. They are always on the lookout for the unexpected bargain. Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one rail to another, to and fro often retracing her steps, before selecting the dresses she wants to try on. It is a tiresome process, but apparently an enjoyable one. Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.29According to the passage, a mans shopping is based on _.A. his money B. his hobbies C. his need D. his friends30Why does a lady welcome suggestions from anyone while buying a dress?A. Because she wants to buy a dress that every one thinks suits her.B. Because she doesnt know how to buy a dress.C. Because she doesnt know whether to buy it or not.D. Because she wants to show herself off in public.31Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Most men have patience with trying it on while buying a jacket.B. Most women have a poor sense of value when buying a dress.C. A womans shopping is based on her need.D. A man doesnt pay much attention to the price of the clothes he wants to buy.32The passage mainly talks about the _ between men shoppers and women shoppers for clothes.A. similarities B. differences C. varieties D. intentionsDIt was Mollys job to hand her father his brown paper lunch bag each morning before he headed off to workOne morning, in addition to his usual lunch bag, Molly handed him a second paper bagThis one was worn and held together with staples(订书钉) 。“Why two bags?” her father asked“The other is something else,” Molly answered“Whats in it?” “Just some stuffTake it with you”Not wanting to discuss the matter, he put both bags into his briefcase, kissed Molly and rushed offAt midday he opened Mollys bag and took out the contents: two hair ribbons(丝带), three small stones, a plastic dinosaur, a tiny sea shell, a small doll, and 13 pennies The busy father smiled, finished eating, and swept the desk clean into the wastebasket, Mollys stuff includedThat evening, Molly ran up behind him as he read the paper“Wheres my bag?” “What bag?” “The one I gave you this morning” “I left it at the officeWhy?” “I forgot to put this note in it,” she said“And, besides, Daddy, the things in the sack are the things I really like I thought you might like to play with themYou didnt lose the bag, did you, Daddy?” “Oh, no,” he said, lying“I just forgot to bring it homeIll bring it tomorrow” While Molly hugged her fathers neck, he unfolded the note that read: “I love you, Daddy” Molly had given him her treasures all that a 7-year-old held dearLove in a paper bag, and he missed it not only missed it, but had thrown it in the wastebasketSo back he went to the officeJust ahead of the night janitor(看门人), he picked up the wastebasketHe put the treasures inside and carried it home carefullyThe bag didnt look so good, but the stuff was all there and thats what countedAfter dinner, he asked Molly to tell him about the stuff in the sackIt took a long time to tellEverything had a story or a memory“Sometimes I think of all the great times in this sweet life,” he thoughtWe should all remember that its not the destination that counts in life, but the journeyThat journey with the people we love is all that really mattersIt is such a simple truth but it is so easily forgotten33Why did Molly give her father a second bag?AShe didnt want to keep the things in the bagBShe hoped those things would bring happiness to her fatherCShe wanted to remind her father of the stories behind the thingsDShe enjoyed playing with her father34How did father deal with the bag after he opened it?AHe kept it in the drawerBHe took it back homeCHe threw it into the wastebasketDHe put it on his table35Which of the following is the most suitable title of the passage?AAn important journey BTwo bagsCFather and daughter DLove in a paper bag第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。Getting your children to study can be a little like getting them to eat their vegetables._36_ Make a study time and have it at the same time every day.
