Have you ever received a gift that was so clearly not your taste that you
wondered if perhaps it had been handed to you by mistake? Worse, have you ever
given a present and watched your friend look as though she had opened the wrong
box? Maybe she responded with a polite “Why, thank you,” but you knew you ha d
missed the mar k. Why do presents sometimes go wrong? And what do your choices
(good and had) reflect about your personal qualities?
Choosing the right gift is an art, I believe. It calls for empathy－the
ability to put yourself into someone else’s head and heart. We’re all able to
do this; in fact, we’re born with a kind of natural empathy. After the
earliest period of childhood, however, it needs to be reinforced（加强）－by
our parents, teachers, friends .When it isn’t, we’re not able to understand
other people’s feelings as sharply. This can show in the gifts we select, and
so can many other emotional（情感的）qualities.
Think back to the presents you’ve given over the past year, the time and
effort you put into your selection, how much you spent, your thoughts while you
were shopping ,and your feelings when the receiver opened the package. Keep in
mind that what you choose displays your inner world. Of course, you may express
yourself differently with different friends, relatives, and other people you
know.
We live in a society where exchanging presents is an important part of
communication. Ignoring the tradition won’t make it go away. If you really
dislike such a tradition, tell your friends abead of time.
60.The underlined expression“you had missed the mark”means“you had failed to
”.
A.make her feel better
B.keep your friendship
C.receive a present in return
D.get the expected effect
61.Which of the following is the main ideas of the second paragraph?
A.Natural empathy needs to be reinforced.
B.Emotional changes influence one’s choice of gifts.
C.Selecting the right gift is an ability people are born with.
D.Choosing gifts requires one to understand the receivers.
62.In the third garagraph, the author tells us that .
A.attention should be paid to the receiver’s responses
B.one learns from what he did in the past
C.the choice of girls reflects one’s emotional qualities
D.one should spend more time choosing gifts
63.The best possible title for this passage is “ ”.
A.Ways of Choosing Gifts
第7页 | 共14页B.An Important Tradition
C.Exchanging Presents
D.Message in a Gift

The young boy saw me, or rather, he saw the car and quickly ran up to me ,eager
to sell his bunches（串）of bananas and bags of peanuts. Though he appeared to
be about twelve, he seemed to have already known he bitterness of
life.“ Bananas 300 naira. Peanuts 200 naira.” He said in a low voice. I
bargained him down to 200 that for the fruit and nuts, When he agreed, I handed
him a 500 naira bill. He didn’t have change. So I told him not to worry. He
said thanks and smiled a row of perfect teeth.
When, two weeks later, I saw the boy again, I was more aware of my position
in a society where it’s not that uncommon to see a little boy who should be in
school standing on the corner selling fruit in the burning sun. My parents bad
raised me to be aware of the advantage we had been afforded and the
responsibility it brought to us.
I pulled over and rolled down my window, He had a bunch of bananas and a bag
of peanuts ready. I waved them away. “What’t up?”asked him.
“I…I don’t have money to buy books for school.”I reached into my pocket and
handed him two fresh 500 naira bills.“Will this help?”I asked. He looked
around nervously before taking the money. One thousand naira was a lot of money
to someone whose family probably made about 5,000 naira or less each
year.“Thank you, sir.”he said.“Thank you very much!”
When driving home. I wondered if my little friend actually used the money
for schoolbooks. What if he’s a cheat（骗子）?And then I wondered why I did
it. Did I do it to make myself feel better? Was I using him? Later, I realized
that I wondered why I did it, Did I do it to make myself feel better? Was I
using him? Later, I realized that I didn’t know his name or the least bit
about him, nor did I think to ask.
Over the next six months, I was busy working in a news agency in northern
Nigeria. Sometime after I returned, I went out For a drive. When I was about to
pull over, the boy suddenly appeared by my window with a big smile ready on his
face.
“Oh, gosh! Long time.”
“Are you in school now?”I asked.
He nodded.
“That’s good,” I said. A silence fell as we looked at each other, and then I
realized what he wanted.“Here,”I held out a 500 naira bill.“Take this.”He
shook his head and stepped back as if hurt.“What’s wrong?” I asked.“It’s
a gift.”
He shook his head again and brought his had form behind his back. His face
shone with sweat（汗水）. He dropped a bunch of bananas and a bag of peanuts in
the front seat before he said,“I’ve been waiting to give these to you .”
64.What was the author’s first impression of the boy?
第8页 | 共14页A. He seemed to be poor and greedy.
B. He seemed to have his age.
C. He seemed younger than his age.
D. He seemed good at bargaining.

C. asked him for money for his schoolbooks
D. tried to take advantage of him

An environmental group called the Food Commission is unhappy and disappointed
because of the sale of bottled water form Japan. The water is angrily argues in
public, has traveled 10,000“ food miles” before it reaches Western
customers.“transporting water halfway across the world is surely the extremely
stupid use of fuel when there is plenty of water in the OK.”It is also worried
that we are wasting our fuel by buying praums（对虾）from Indonesia(7,000 food
miles) and carrots from South Africa(5,900 food miles).
Counting the number of miles traveled done by a product is a strange way of
trying to tell the true situation of the environmental damage done by an
industry. Most food is transported around the world on container ships that are
extremely energy efficient（高能效的）. It should be noted that a ton of butter
transported 25 miles in a truck product transported hundreds of miles by sea.
Besides ,the idea of “ of miles”ignores the amount of fuel used in the
production. It is possible to cut down your food miles by buying tomatoes grown
in Britain rather than those grown in Ghana; the difference is that the British
one will have been raised in heated greenhouses and the Ghanaian ones in the
open sun.
What the idea of“food miles”does provide, however, is the chance to cut out
Third World Countries from First World food markers. The number of miles
traveled by our food should, as I see it, be regarded as a sign of the success
of the global（全球的）trade system, not a sign of damage to the environment.
68.The Food Commission is angry because it thinks that .
A.OK wastes a lot of money importing food products
B. some imported goods cause environmental damage
第9页 | 共14页C. growing certain vegetables cause environmental damage
D. people waste energy buying food fro other countries
69. The phrase“food miles”in the passage refers to the distance .
A. that a food product travels to a market
B. that a food product travels from one market to another
C. between UK and other food producing countries
D. between a Third World country and a First World food market
70.By comparing tomatoes raised in Britain and in Ghana, the another tries to
explain that .
A. British tomatoes are healthier than Ghanaian ones
B. Ghanaian tomatoes taste better than British ones
C. cutting down food miles may not necessarily save fuel
D. protecting the environment may cost a lot of money
71.From the passage we know that the author is most probably .
A. a supporter of free global trade
B. a member of the Food Commission
D. a supporter of First World food markets
D. a member of an energy development group

Silence is unnatural to man. He begins life with a cry and ends it in
stillness. In between be does all he can to make a noise in the world, and be
fears silence more than anything else. Even his conversation is an attempt to
prevent a fearful silence. If he is introduced to another person, and is number
of pauses occur in the conversation, he regards him- self as a failure ,a
worthless person, and is full of envy of the emptiest- headed chatterbox（喋喋
不休的人）.He knows that ninety nine percent of human conversation means no
more than the buzzing of a fl y, but he is anxious to join in the buzz and to
prove that he is a man and not a waxwork figure（蜡塑人像）.
The aim of conversation is not. For the most part, to communicate ideas; it
is to keep up the buzzing sound. There are, it must be admitted, different
qualities of buzz; there is even a buzz that is as annoying as the continuous
noise made by a mosquito(蚊子).But at a dinner party one would rather be a
mosquito than a quiet person. Most buzzing, fortunately, is pleasant to the
ear, and some of it is pleasant even to the mind. He would be a foolish man if
he waited until he had a wise thought to take part in the buzzing with his
neighbors.
Those who hate to pick up the weather as a conversational opening seem to
me not to know the reason why human beings wish to talk. Very few human beings
join in a conversation in the hope of learning anything new. Some of them are
content if they are merely allowed to go on making a noise into other people’s
ears, though they have nothing to tell them except that they have seen two or
three new plays or that they had food in a Swiss hotel. At the end of an
evening, during which they have said nothing meaningful for a long time. They
just prove themselves to be successful conservationists.
第10页 | 共14页72. According to the author, people make conversation to .
A. exchange ideas
B. prove their value
C. achieve success in life
D. overcome their fear of silence
73. By “the buzzing of a fly”(Para.1),the author means “ ”.
A. the noise of an insect
B. a low whispering sound
C. meaningless talks
D. the voice of a chatterbox
74. According to the passage, people usually talk to their neighbors .
A. about whatever they have prepared
B. about whatever they want do
C. in the hope of learning something new
D. in the hope of getting on well
75. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A. To discuss why people like talking about weather.
B. To encourage people to join in conversations.
C. To persuade people to stop making noises.
D. To explain why people keep talking.
