He loved the 4th wife the most. He gave her nothing but the best. He also loved the 3rd wife very much. Hes very proud of her and always wanted to show her off to his friends. He too, loved his 2nd wife. If the merchant faced some problems, he always turned to his 2nd wife and she would always help him out. Now, the merchants 1st wife has made great contributions in maintaining his wealth andbusiness as well as taking care of the household. However, the merchant did not love the first wife and although she loved him deeply, he hardly took notice of her.One day, the merchant fell ill. Before long, he knew that he was going to die soon. Thus, he asked the 4th wife, “I loved you most. Now that Im dying, will you follow me and keep me company?”“No way!” replied the 4th wife and she turned away without another word. The 3rd and 2nd wife gave him the same answer. Then a voice called out: “Ill leave with you. Ill follow you no matter where you go.” The merchant looked up and said, “I should have taken much better care of you while I could have!”Actually, we all have 4 wives in our lives. The 4th wife is our body. No matter how much time and effort we spend in making it look good, itll leave us when we die.Our 3rd wife is our possessions, status and wealth. When we die, they all go to others.The 2nd wife is our family and friends. No matter how close they had been there for us when were alive, the furthest they can stay by us is up to the grave(坟墓).The 1st wife is in fact our soul, often ignored in our search of material, wealth and pleasure. Guess what? It is actually the only thing that follows us wherever we go. We are not to ignoreit. Perhaps its a good idea to develop and strengthen it now rather than to wait until were on our death bed to cry.24. Which of the merchants wives devotes herself to him most? A. the first oneB. the second one C. the third one D. the fourth one25. If the merchant is in trouble, what is he likely to do? A. He often deals with the problems himself. B.

A. we shouldnt marry four wives B. only one wife is our best choice C. The merchant prefers his wives to his possessions D. our soul is more valuable than anything else27. In the last paragraph, the underlined word “it” refers to _. A. body B. wealth C. soul D. pleasureCYou need some bread and milk. But half an hour later, you leave the supermarket with a trolley（推车）full of food. What games do supermarkets play to make us spend so much money?Thetricks usually start before you walk in. Outside the supermarket entrance, anybody who walks past can smell warm, fresh bread. That makes us hungry and ready to buy lots of food, not just bread.Now youre inside and, of course, a small basket would be fine, but all they have are trolleys. And of course the problem with a trolley is that it looks sad and lonely with just one or two goods inside. So we may fill it with something. In fact, supermarket trolleys are actually getting bigger so that we buy more.Of course, many people shop in supermarkets because they think everything is cheaper than in other shops. So supermarkets offer very cheap prices on some things but then have higher prices for other goods. One new trick is to put red stickers（标签）on them. Customers usually connect red stickers with lower prices so the red stickers is easy to be seen, even when there is no reduction! Interestingly, this trick appears to work more with men than with women.There is a story behind the position of everything in the supermarket. The most expensive goods are usually at eye-level so you see these immediately. The exception is anything that children might like. These goods are on lower shelves so that kids see them.Apart from what you see and smell in a supermarket, what about what you listen to? In most supermarkets they have soft, slow music. Its so relaxing that you slow down and spend more time (and money) in the store. Experts suggest its better to shop when its quieter, on a Monday or a Tuesday for example. And be careful with queues at the checkouts（收银台）. These are sometimes on purpose, to make you buy something from the checkout shelves while you wait.So, next time you go into your local supermarket, remember these tricks and see if you can come with just the things you went for.28. There are no small baskets but trolleys in the supermarket because _.A. small baskets are not strong enough B. people dont like using basketsC. its easy to go shopping with trolleys D. baskets are too small to hold many goods29. What does the underlined word “tricks” in paragraph 2 mean?A. small jokesB. clever methods C. suggestionsD. advertisements30. According to the text, supermarkets put red stickers on goods to _.A. make them look more beautiful B. show these goods are worth buyingC. let people know they are for men D. draw the customers attention31. From the last two paragraphs we can learn that _.A. It is better to be careful with the tricks and shop reasonablyB. there is no good listening to the soft music in supermarketsC. supermarkets usually close earlier on Monday and TuesdayD. we should be more careful when waiting at the checkoutDIts Friday morning in the year 2050, and youre running late.
