The freezing Northeast hasn’t been a terribly fun place to spend time this winter,
so when the chance came for a weekend to Sarasota, Florida, my bags were packed
before you could say “sunshine”. I left for the land of warmth and vitamin C (维生素
C), thinking of beaches and orange trees. When we touched down to blue skies and
warm air, I sent up a small prayer of gratefulness. Swimming pools, wine tasting, and
pink sunsets (at normal evening hours, not 4 in the afternoon) filled the weekend, but
the best part — particularly to my taste, dulled by months of cold — weather root
vegetables — was a 7 a.m. adventure to the Sarasota farmers’ market that proved to
be more than worth the early wake-up call.
The market, which was founded in 1979, sets up its tents every Saturday from 7
a.m. to 1 p.m., rain or shine, along North Lemon and State streets. Baskets of perfect

red strawberries, the red-painted sides of the Java Dawg coffee truck; and most of all,
the tomatoes: amazing, large, soft and round red tomatoes.
Disappointed by many a broken, vine-ripened (蔓上成熟的) promise, I’ve
refused to buy winter tomatoes for years. No matter how attractive they look in the
store, once I get them home they’re unfailingly dry, hard, and tasteless. But I homed
in, with uncertainty, on one particular table at the Brown’s Grove Farm’s stand, full of
fresh and soft tomatoes the size of my fist. These were the real deal — and at that
moment, I realized that the best part of Sarasota in winter was going to be eating
things that back home in New York I wouldn’t be experiencing again for months.
Delighted as I was by the tomatoes in sight, my happiness deepened when I
learned that Brown’s Grove Farm is one of the suppliers for Jack Dusty, a newly
opened restaurant at the Sarasota Ritz Carlton, where — luckily for me — I was
planning to have dinner that very night. Without even seeing the menu, I knew I’d be
ordering every tomato on it.
24. What did the author think of her winter life in New York?
A. Exciting.
B. Boring. C. Relaxing. D. Annoying.
25. What made the author’s getting up early worthwhile?
A. Having a swim.
B. Breathing in fresh air.
C. Walking in the morning sun.
D. Visiting a local farmer’s market.
26. What can we learn about tomatoes sold in New York in winter?
A. They are soft.
B. They look nice.
C. They taste great.
D. They are juicy.
27. What was the author going to do that evening?
A. Go to a farm.
B. Check into a hotel.
C. Eat in a restaurant.
D. Buy fresh vegetables.

Salvador Dali (1904—1989) was one of the most popular of modern artists. The
Pompidou Centre in Paris is showing its respect and admiration for the artist and his
第4 页（共10 页）
powerful personality with an exhibition bringing together over 200 paintings,
sculptures, drawings and more. Among the works and masterworks on exhibition the
visitor will find the best pieces, most importantly The Persistence of Memory. There
is also L’ Enigme sans Fin from 1938, works on paper, objects, and projects for stage
and screen and selected parts from television programmes reflecting the artist’s
showman qualities.
The visitor will enter the World of Dali through an egg and is met with the
beginning, the world of birth. The exhibition follows a path of time and subject with
the visitor exiting through the brain.
The exhibition shows how Dali draws the viewer between two infinities (无限),
“From the infinity small to the infinity large, contraction and expansion coming in and
out of focus: amazing Flemish accuracy and the showy Baroque of old painting that
he used in his museum-theatre in Figueras,” explains the Pompidou Centre.
The fine selection of the major works was done in close collaboration (合作)
with the Museo Nacional Reina Sofia in Madrid, Spain, and with contributions from
other institutions like the Salvador Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida.
28. Which of the following best describes Dali according to Paragraph 1?
A. Optimistic. B. Productive. C. Generous. D. Traditional.
29. What is Dali’s The Persistence of Memory considered to be?
A. One of his masterworks. B. A successful screen adaptation.
C. An artistic creation for the stage. D. One of the best TV programmes.
30. How are the exhibits arranged at the World of Dali?
A. By popularity.
B. By importance.
C. By size and shape.
D. By time and subject.
31. What does the word "contributions" in the last paragraph refer to?
A. Artworks. B. Projects. C. Donations. D. Documents.

Conflict is on the menu tonight at the café La Chope. This evening, as on every
第5 页（共10 页）
Thursday night, psychologist Maud Lehanne is leading two of France’s favorite
pastimes, coffee drinking and the “talking cure”. Here they are learning to get in touch
with their true feelings. It isn’t always easy. The customers — some thirty Parisians
who pay just under $2 (plus drinks) per session — care quick to intellectualize (高谈
阔论), slow to open up and connect. “You are forbidden to say ‘one feels’ or ‘people
think’” Lehanne told them. “Say ‘I think,’ ‘Think me’.”
A café society where no intellectualizing is allowed? It couldn’t seem more un-
French. But Lehanne’s psychology café is about more than knowing oneself: It’s
trying to help the city’s troubled neighborhood cafes. Over the years, Parisian cafes
have fallen victim to changes in the French lifestyle — longer working hours, a fast
food boom and a younger generation’s desire to spend more time at home. Dozens of
new theme cafes appear to change the situation. Cafes focused around psychology,
history, and engineering are catching on, filling tables well into the evening.
The city’s “psychology cafes”, which offer great comfort, are among the most
popular places. Middle-aged homemakers, retirees, and the unemployed come to such
cafes to talk about love, anger, and dreams with a psychologist. And they come to
Lehanne’s group just to learn to say what they feel. “There’s a strong need in Paris for
communication,” says Maurice Frisch, a café La Chope regular who works as a
religious instructor in a nearby church. “People have few real friends. And they need
to open up”. Lehanne says she’d like to see psychology cafes all over France. “If
people had normal lives, these cafes wouldn’t exist,” she says. “If life weren’t a battle,
people wouldn’t need a special place just to speak.” But then, it wouldn’t be France.
32. What are people encouraged to do at the cafe La Chope?
A. Learn a new subject.
B. Keep in touch with friends.
C. Show off their knowledge. D. Express their true feelings.
33. How are cafes affected by French lifestyle changes?
A. They are less frequently visited.
B. They stay open for longer hours.
C. They have bigger night crowds.
D. They start to serve fast food.
34. What are theme cafes expected to do?
A. Create more jobs.
B. Supply better drinks.
第6 页（共10 页）
C. Save the cafe business.
D. Serve the neighborhood.
35. Why are psychology cafes becoming popular in Paris?
A. They bring people true friendship.
B. They give people spiritual support.
C. They help people realize their dreams.
D. They offer a platform for business links.

Building Trust in a Relationship Again
Trust is a learned behavior that we gain from past experiences. 36.___________
Trust is a risk. But you can’t be successful when there’s a lack of trust in a
relationship that results from an action where the wrongdoer takes no responsibility to
fix the mistake.
Unfortunately, we’ve all been victims of betrayal. Whether we’ve been stolen
from, lied to, misled, or cheated on, there are different levels of losing trust.
Sometimes
people
simply
can’t
trust
anymore.
37. __________ It’s
understandable, but if you’re willing to build trust in a relationship again, we have
some steps you can take to get you there.
◆38. ___________ Having confidence in yourself will help you make better
choices because you can see what the best outcome would be for your well-being.
◆39. ___________ If you’ve been betrayed, you are the victim of your
circumstance. But there’s a difference between being a victim and living with a
“victim mentality”. At some point in all of our lives, we’ll have our trust tested or
violated.
◆You didn’t lose “everything”. Once trust is lost, what is left? Instead of looking
at the situation from this hopeless angle, look at everything you still have and
be thankful for all of the good in your life. 40. ___________ Instead, it’s a
healthy way to work through the experience to allow room for positive growth and
第7 页（共10 页）
forgiveness.
A. Learn to really trust yourself.
B. It is putting confidence in someone.
C. Stop regarding yourself as the victim.
D. Remember that you can expect the best in return.
E. They’ve been too badly hurt and they can’t bear to let it happen again.
F. This knowledge carries over in their attitude toward their future relationships.
G. Seeing the positive side of things doesn’t mean you’re ignoring what happened.

My kids and I were heading into the supermarket over the weekend. On the way,

looking for others we can 56 ! Things would have played out so 57 if

I’d skipped nearby Guilin, a dream place for tourists seeking the limestone

many Chinese 65 (painting). Instead,
I’d headed straight for Yangshuo. For those who fly to Guilin, it’s only an hour

Yangshuo 67 (be) really beautiful. A study of travelers 68

When I was a child, I hoped to live in the city. I think I would be happy there.
Now I am living in a city, but I miss my home in countryside. There the air is clean or
the mountains are green. Unfortunately, on the development of industrialization, the
environment has been polluted. Lots of studies have been shown that global warming
has already become a very seriously problem. The airs we breathe in is getting dirtier
