One
fine
afternoon
I
was
walking
along
the
street,
when
I
remembered that I had to buy a pair of
socks.
I
turned
into
the
first
sock
shop
that
16
my
eye,
and
a
boy clerk about seventeen
17
and
asked, “What can
I do for
you,
sir?”
“I
want
to
buy
a
pair
of
socks,”
I
replied.
His
eyes
18
, “You have come to the
finest place in the world to buy socks.”
I was puzzled, as I had come here
19
. “Come with
me,” said
the
boy
excitedly.
I
20
him
through
the
shop,
while
he
searched
box after box,
21
me their contents.
“
22
, lad. I am going to buy
only one pair!” “I know that,”
said he,
“
23
I
want you to see how beautiful they are.” There
was
an
expression
of
24
on
his
face.
I
became
far
more
25
him than in the socks. “My friend,”
said I, “if you can
26
this up, in ten years you will own
every sock in the United States.”
My
amazement
at
his
27
and
joy
will
be
easily
understood
by
many
people.
In
many
shops
the
28
has
to
wait for the clerk. And
when finally some clerk does notice you, you
are made to feel as if you are
29
him. And he shows
30
interest
either
in
you
or
in
the
31
he
is
paid
to
sell.
He
has
become a
32
, not an inspired salesman. After being
mechanical,
he became incompetent. Then
he saw younger clerks who had more
interest
in
their
work
33
above
him.
He
became
34
.
That
was the
last stage. His usefulness
was over.
So I have come to the
35
that the surest road to
failure is
to do things mechanically.
16. A. interrupted
B. caught

passed

went
away

came
up

got

A
Among
various
programs,
TV
talk
shows
have
covered
every
inch of space on daytime television.
And anyone who watches them
regularly
knows that each one is different in style. But no
two shows
are
more
opposite
in
content,
while
at
the
same
time
standing
out
above the rest, than the Jerry Springer
and Oprah Winfrey shows.
Jerry Springer
could easily be considered the king of
talk
The
topics
on
his
show
are
as
surprising
as
can
be.
For
example, the show takes
the ever-common talk show titles of love,
sex,
cheating,
and
hate,
to
a
different
level.
Clearly,
the
Jerry
Springer
show
is
about
the
dark
side
of
society,
yet
people
are
willing to eat up the troubles of other
people's lives.
Like Jerry Springer,
Oprah Winfrey takes the TV talk show to
its top. But Oprah goes in the opposite
direction. The show is mainly
about
the
improvement
of
society
and
different
quality
of
life.
Contents
are
from
teaching
your
children
lessons,
managing
your
work week, to getting
to know your neighbors.
Compared
to
Oprah,
the
Jerry
Springer
show
looks
like
poisonous
waste
being
poured
into
society.
Jerry
ends
every
show
with a
of the show.
Hopefully, this is the part where most people will
learn
something very valuable.
Clean as it is, the Oprah show is not
for everyone. The show's
main audience
are middle-class Americans. Most of the people
have
the time, money and ability to
deal with life's tough problems. Jerry
Springer, on the other hand, has more
of a connection with the young
adults
of society. These are 18-to 21year-olds whose main
troubles
in life include love,
relationship, sex, money and drug. They are the
ones
who
see
some
value
and
lessons
to
be
learned
through
the
show's exploitation.
36. Compared with other TV talk shows,
both the Jerry Springer and
the Oprah
Winfrey shows are ______.
A. more
interesting
B. unusually poplar
C. more
detailed
D.
more formal
37.
Though
the
social
problems
Jerry
Springer
talks
about
appear
unpleasant, people who watch the shows
______.
A. show
disbelief in them
B.
are ready to face
up to them
C. remain cold
to them
D.
are
willing
to
get
away from them
38.
Which
of
the
following
is
likely
to
be
a
topic
of
the
Oprah
Winfrey
show?
A. A new
type of robot.
B. National
hatred.
C.
Family income planning.
D. Street
accident.
39. We can learn from the
passage that the two talk shows ____.
A. have become the only
ones of its kind
B.
exploit
the
weaknesses in human nature
C. appear at different times of the day
D.
attract
different
people
40. What is the
advantage of the Jerry Springer show?
A. The show exposes the
dark sides of society.
B. The show pours poisonous waste into
society.
C.
Jerry sums up the whole idea of the show.
D. Jerry talks
abou the improvement of society.
B
M
ost
mornings,
the
line
begins
to
form
at
dawn:
scores
of
silent women with babies on their
backs, buckets balanced on their
heads,
and in each hand a bright-blue plastic jug. On
good days, they
will wait less than an
hour before a water tanker goes across the dirt
path
that
serves
as
a
road
in
Kesum
Purbahari,
a
slum
on
the
southern
edge
of
New
Delhi.
On
bad
days,
when
there
is
no
electricity
for the pumps, the tankers don’t come at all.
“That water
kills people,” a young
mother named Shoba said one recent Saturday
morning,
pointing
to
a
row
of
pails
filled
with
thick,
caramel
(
焦
糖
)-
colored liquid.
“Whoever drinks it will die.”
The water
was from
a
pipe
shared
by
thousands
of
people
in
the
poor
neibourhood.
Women often use it to wash clothes and
bathe their children, but no-
body is
desperate enough to drink it.
There is no standard for how much water
a person needs each
day,
but
experts
usually
put
the
minimum
at
fifty
litres.
The
government
of
India
promises
(but
rarely
provides)
forty.
Most
people drink two or
three litres
—
less than it
takes to wash a toilet.
The
rest
is
typically
used
for
cooking
and
bathing.
Americans
consume between
four hundred and six hundred litres of water each
day, more than any other people on
earth. Most Europeans use less
than
half that. The women of Kesum Purbahari each hoped
to
drag
away a hundred
litres that day
—
two or
th
ree buckets’ worth. Shoba
has a husband and five children, and
that much water doesn’t go far
in
a
family
of
seven,
particularly
when
the
temperature
reaches
a
hundred
and
ten
degrees
before
noon.
She
often
makes
up
the
difference with bottled
water, which costs more than water delivered
any other way. Sometimes she just buys
milk; it’s cheaper. Like the
poorest
people everywhere, the people
of New
Delhi’s slums spend a
far greater
percentage of their incomes on water than anyone
lucky
enough to live in a house
connected to a system of pipes.
41. The
underlined word
“
slum
”
most likely means ______.
A. a village
B.
a small town
C. an area of a town with
badly-built, over-crowded buildings
D. the part of
a town that lacks water badly
42.
Sometimes the water tanker
doesn
’
t come because ______.
A.
the weather is bad
B. there is no electricity
C.
there is no water
D. people
don
’
t want the dirty water
43. The passage mainly tells us ______.
A.
how women in Kesum Purbahari gets their water
B.
how much water a day a person deeds
C. that India
lacks water badly
D. how India government
manages to solve the problem of water
C
Forgiving someone who has hurt you or
let you down is never an
easy thing.
Several new studies,however, say that it could
have a lot
of health benefits. When you
think of forgiveness, you probably
