TEXT B
Every year thousands of people are arrested and taken to court for shop-lifting.In Britain alone, about HK$3,000,000’s worth of goods are stolen from shops every week.This amounts to something like HK$150 million a year, and represents about 4 per cent of the shops’ total stock.As a result of this “shrinkage” as the shops call it, the honest public has to pay higher prices.
Shop-lifters can be divided into three main categories: the professionals, the deliberate amateur, and the people who just can’t help themselves.The professionals do not pose much of a problem for the store detectives, who, assisted by closed circuit television, two-way mirrors and various other technological devices, can usually cope with them.The professionals tend to go for high value goods in parts of the shops where security measures are tightest.And, in any case, they account for only a small percentage of the total losses due to shop-lifting.
The same applies to the deliberate amateur who is, so to speak, a professional in training.Most of them get caught sooner or later, and they are dealt with severely by the courts.
The real problem is the person who gives way to a sudden temptation and is in all other respects an honest and law-abiding citizen.Contrary to what one would expect, this kind of shop-lifter is rarely poor.He does not steal because he needs the goods and cannot afford to pay for them.He steals because he simply cannot stop himself.And there are countless others who, because of age, sickness or plain absent-mindedness, simply forget to pay for what they take from the shops.When caught, all are liable to prosecution, and the decision whether to send for the police or not is in the hands of the store manager.
In order to prevent the quite incredible growth in ship-lifting offences, some stores, in fact, are doing their best to separate the thieves from the confused by prohibiting customers from taking bags into the store.However, what is most worrying about the whole problem is, perhaps, that it is yet another instance of the innocent majority being penalized and inconvenienced because of the actions of a small minority.It is the aircraft hijack situation in another form.Because of the possibility of one passenger in a million boarding an aircraft with a weapon, the other 999,999 passengers must subject themselves to searches and delays.Unless the situation in the shops improves, in ten years’ time we may all have to subject ourselves to a body-search every time we go into a store to buy a tin of beans!
70.Why does the honest public have to pay higher prices when they go to the shops? A.There is a “shrinkage” in market values. B.Many goods are not available. C.Goods in many shops lack variety. D.There are many cases of shop-lifting.
71.The third group of people steal things because they ____ A.are mentally ill.B.are quite absent-minded.
C.can not resist the temptation.D.can not afford to pay for goods. 72.According to the passage, law-abiding citizens ____. A.can possibly steal things because of their poverty B.can possibly take away goods without paying C.have never stolen goods from the supermarkets D.are difficult to be caught when they steal things
73.Which of the following statements is NOT true about the main types of shop-lifting? A.A big percentage of the total losses are caused by the professionals. B.The deliberate amateurs will be punished severely if they get caught. C.People would expect that those who can’t help themselves are poor. D.The professionals don’t cause a lot of trouble to the store detectives. 74.The aircraft hijack situation is used in order to show that ____. A.“the professionals do not pose much of a problem for the stores” B.some people “somply forget to pay for what they take from the shops” C.“the honest public has to pay higher prices” D.the third type of shop-lifters are dangerous people
TEXT C
My bones have been aching again, as they often do in humid weather.They ache like history: things long done with, that still remain as pain.When the ache is bad enough it keeps me from sleeping.Every night I yearn for sleep, I strive for it;yet it flutters on ahead of me like a curtain.There are sleeping pills, of course, but the doctor has warned me against them.
Last night, after what seemed hours of damp turmoil, I got up and crept slipperless down the staris, feeling my way in the faint street light that came through the window.Once safely arrived at the bottom, I walked into the kitchen and looked around in the refrigerator.There was nothing much I wanted to eat: the remains of a bunch of celery, a blue-tinged heel of bread, a lemon going soft.I’ve fallen into the habits of the solitary;my meals are snatched and random.Furtive snacks, furtive treats and picnics.I made do with some peanut butter, scooped directly from the jar with a forefinger: why dirty a spoon?
Standing there with the jar in one hand and my finger in my mouth, I had the feeling that someone was about to walk into the room — some other woman, the unseen, valid owner — and ask me what in hell I was doing in her kitchen.I’ve had it before, the sense that even in the course of my most legitimate and daily actions — peeling a banana, brushing my teeth — I am trespassing.
At night the house was more than ever like a stranger’s.I wandered through the front room, the dining room, the parlour, hand on the wall for balance.My various possessions were floating in their own pools of shadow, denying my ownership of them.I looked them over with a burglar’s eye, deciding what might be worth the risk of stealing, what on the other hand I would leave behind.Robbers would take the obvious things — the silver teapot that was my grandmother’s, perhaps the hand-painted china.The television set.Nothing I really want.75.The author could not fall asleep because ____. A.it was too damp in the bedroom B.she had run out of sleeping pills C.she was in very poor health D.she felt very hungry
76.The author did not like the food in the refrigerator because it was NOT ____.A.fresh B.sufficientC.nutritious D.delicious
77.By “At night the house was more than ever like a stranger’s”(Line 1, Para.4), the author probably means that ____. A.the house was too dark at night B.ther were unfamiliar rooms in the house C.she felt much more lonely at night D.the furniture there didn’t belong to her
TEXT D
The chief problem in coping with foreign motorists is not so much remembering that they are different from yourself, but that they are enormously variable.Cross a frontier without adjusting and you can be in deep trouble.
One of the greatest gulfs separating the driving nations is the Atlantic Ocean.More precisely, it is the mental distance between the European and the American motorist, particularly the South American motorist.Compare, for example, an English driver at a set of traffic lights with a Brazilian.
Very rarely will an Englishman try to anticipate the green light by moving off prematurely.You will find the occasional sharpie who watches for the amber to come up on the adjacent set of lights.However, he will not go until he receives the lawful signal.Brazilians view the thing quite differently.If, in fact, they see traffic lights at all, they regard them as a kind of roadside decoration.
The natives of North America are much more disciplined.They demonstrate this in their addiction to driving in one lane and sticking to it — even if it means settling behind some great truck for many miles.
To prevent other drivers from falling into reckless ways, American motorists try always to stay close behind the vehicle in front which can make it impossible, when all the vehicles are moving at about 55 mph, to make a real lane change.European visitors are constantly falling into this trap.They return to the Old World still flapping their arms in frustration because while driving in the State in their car they kept failing to get off the highway when they wanted to and were swept along to the next city.
However, one nation above all others lives scrupulously by its traffic regulations — the Swiss.In Switzerland, if you were simply to anticipate a traffic light, the chances are that the motorist behind you would take your number and report you to the police.What is more, the police would visit you;and you would be convicted. The Swiss take their rules of the road so seriously that a diver can be ordered to appear in court and charged for speeding on hearsay alone, and very likely found guilty.There are slight regional variations among the French, German and Italian speaking areas, but it is generally safe to assume that any car bearing a CH sticker will be driven with a high degree of discipline. 78.The fact that the Brazilians regard traffic lights as a kind of roadside decoration suggests that ____.
A.traffic lights are part of street scenery B.they simply ignore traffic lights C.they want to put them at roadsides D.there are very few traffic lights
79.The second and third paragraphs focus on the difference between ____. A.the Atlantic Ocean and other oceans B.English drivers and American drivers C.European drivers and American drivers
D.European drivers and South American drivers
80.The phrase “anticipate the green light”(Line 1, Para.3)is closest in meaning to ____.A.wait for the green light to be on
B.forbid others to move before the green light C.move off before the green light is on
D.follow others when the green light is on

Dear Sir,
Your shipment of twelve thousand “Smart” watches was received by our company this morning.However, we wish to make a number of complaints concerning the serious delay in delivery and your failure to carry out our instructions with regard to this order. Late delivery of the goods has caused us to disappoint several of our most valued customers.
The second complaint concerns the mismatch in colour between the watches we ordered and those delivered. As a result of the above problems, therefore, we feel that the most suitable course of action is to return to you unpaid any of the goods considered unsatisfactory. We look forward to your prompt reply.
Yours sincerely, Marks Swift Managing Director, Johnson & Sons Ltd.TEXT G

Passage one: Clowns(小丑)like to make people laugh.They paint their faces and put on funny noses.Sometimes they put on a sad face but most of the time they put on a happy face.They also wear funny clothes.Most clowns work in circuses.They do all kinds of silly things to make the audience laugh.They run, jump, fall down, turn somersaults(翻滚,斤头), and roll over.They ride donkeys backwards.They push each other in wagons or wheelbarrows.Sometimes they shout and sing.Clowns are funny men, and occasionally, women, too!A circus is not a circus without clowns!
Children especially enjoy watching clowns.A clown named Cookie often visits hospitals to entertain sick children as well as older people.Sick people need to laugh.It helps them to get better faster.There is an old saying:”Laughter is good medicine.”
小丑喜欢让人发笑。他们把自己的脸刷上颜料,带上可笑的鼻子。有时他们也会刷上一张悲伤的脸,但大多数情况下他们总是刷上一张快乐的脸。他们也穿着滑稽可笑的衣服。大多数的小丑是在马戏团里工作。他们做着各种各样的愚蠢的事情为了博得观众的欢笑。他们跑着,跳着,摔倒,翻滚,和打滚。他们倒骑毛驴。他们彼此在马车或独轮手推车里相互推搡。有时他们大喊和唱歌。小丑通常都是些可笑的男人,偶尔也有女性小丑!马戏团没有了小丑就不算是马戏团了。
儿童特别喜欢看小丑表演。一个名叫酷奇的小丑经常到医院看望生病的孩子、年老的老人。病人需要欢笑。欢笑有助于他们更快的恢复健康。
有句谚语说:“欢笑是最好的良药。” 6.Clowns make people laugh by _______D_______.A.making fun of the audience B.putting on stupid face C.painting their faces D.doing all kinds of silly things 小丑使人们发笑通过做各种各样很傻的事情。

8.The sentence “A circus is not a circus without clowns” means ___A______.A.a circus will not be of much fun if it has no clowns B.a circus can no longer survive if the clowns are gone
C.a circus with clown is not the same as a circus without clowns D.a circus cannot attract children if it has no clowns “马戏团没有了小丑就不是马戏团了”这句话意思是如果没有了小丑,马戏团就不那么有趣了。
9.Clowns are a great favorite with ________C______.A.old people B.sick people C.children D.people of all ages and interests 小丑最受儿童喜欢。

Passage two: How men first learnt to invent words is unknown: in other words, the origin of language is a mystery.All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thought and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other;and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to present those sounds, and which could be written down.Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words.The power of words, then, lies in their associations – the things they bring up before our minds.Words become filled with meaning for us by experience;and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past;and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something increases.Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions.This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary style.Above all, the real poet is a master of words.He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music and which by their position and association can move men to tears.We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar.人类如何首先发明语言文字的还不知道:换句话说,语言的起源是一个谜。我们所真正知道的是,跟动物不同,人类在某种程度上发明了某种声音来表达思想和感情,行动和实物。因此,人类可以彼此交流;之后,他们同意某些符号,被称作是字母,用来结合现在的这些声音,然后声音可以被写出来。这些声音,口语或是用字母写出的书面语,我们称之为语言文字。
语言的力量,在于它们和事物之间的联系-语言将事物带入到我们的思维里。语言通过感受经历充满了意义。我们活得越久,某些文字能让我们回想起过去那些快乐和悲伤的事情;我们阅读和学习的越多,文字的数量就越多,文字的意义也越加丰富。
伟大的作家不仅仅拥有伟大的思想,而且还拥有运用语言文字表达思想的能力。这些语言对我们的思想和情感产生强大的吸引力。这种充满魅力的语言文字表达,我们称之为文学风格。首先,真正的诗人都是一个语言大师。他可以用语言文字来传达他的意思,唱出来像音乐一样。通过语言描述出他们的处境,通过关联,让他人感动的流泪。因此,我们应该学会慎重选择我们的语言并准确的使用文字。否则,语言将使得我们的演讲变得愚蠢和俗不可耐。
11.The origin of language is ________D________.A.a legend handed down from the past B.a matter that is hidden or secret C.a question difficult to answer D.problem not yet solved 语言的起源是还没有解决的问题。
12.What is true about words? ________C__________.A.They are used to express feelings only.B.They can not be written down.C.They are simply sounds.D.They are mysterious.关于语言哪些是真实的?它们是声音。
13.The real power of words lies in their _____D_________.A.properties B.characteristics C.peculiarity D.representative function 语言的真正力量在于它们代表的功能。
14.By “association”, the author means _______B_______.A.a special quality B.a joining of ideas in the mind C.an appearance which is puzzling D.a strange feature “联合”这个词,作者的意思是指思维上一个想法的联合。
15.Which of the following statements about the real poet is NOT true? _______A______ A.He is no more than a master of words.B.He can convey his ideas in words which sing like music.C.He can move men to tears.D.His style is always charming.下面关于真正的诗人的哪个陈述是错误的?他仅仅是一个语言大师。

Instructions: 建议你在30分钟内,根据下面所给的题目用英语写出一篇不少于80词的短文。Where to Live 1.有人喜欢住在城市 2.有人喜欢住在农村 3.我的看法。
Where to Live Many people appreciate the conveniences of the city.People in the city can see films, visit exhibitions and watch games every day if they like to.Furthermore, if they want to become scholars, scientists or artists, they can find what they need in the city: libraries, colleges, museums, and so on.The last But not the least important thing I'd like to say is that they can get to know as many people as they want in the city.But some other people are attracted by the beauty of the country.First, if one is in the country he feels he is closer to nature: small streams, high mountains, fresh air, and green grass and so on, all this makes people happy and stirs up the love of life.Second, in the country, people seem to have more freedom.They can sing high in the field, ride horses along a brook and does some interesting farm work.Of course, both the city and the country have their disadvantages.As for the city, there is pollution, noise and heavy traffic.And as far as the country is concerned, its inefficient transportation, delayed news always makes people feel isolated.Compared with cities, the country is relatively backward, but nothing can be compared with the clean atmosphere and the gentle pace of living.Living in the country is very good for your health.With the development of economy, it is a trend that people will migrate from the city to the country.住在哪里
很多人看重城市生活得便捷。人们在城市里可以看电影,参观展览会,看娱乐节目只要他们愿意。而且,如果他们想要成为学者、科学家或是艺术家,他们可以在城市里找到他们所需要的:图书馆、大学、博物馆等等。最后且同样重要的事,我想说的是他们可以在城市里得到其他人知道的一切。
但是有些人却被乡村的美景所吸引。首先,如果一个人在乡村,他会觉得跟自然接近:小溪,高山,新鲜空气和绿色草地等,所有这些会使他感到开心并激起对生活得热情。其次,在乡村人们似乎觉得更加自由。他们可以在田野里歌唱,沿着小溪骑马,做些有趣的农场工作。当然,城市和乡村生活各有利弊。城市里有污染,噪音和交通堵塞。而乡村虽然交通不便,发展落后使得人们有时觉得被孤立。
相比城市而言,乡村相对的落后一些。但是,没有什么可以和清新的空气、舒缓的生活节奏相比。住在乡村对你的健康非常有益。随着经济的发展,人们从城市移居到乡村将是一种趋势。
