11. (阅读理解题)Reading Comprehension (每小题2分,共30分) Section A The fridge is considered necessary. It has been so since the 1960s when packaged food list appeared with the label: Store in the refrigerator. In my fridgeless Fifties childhood, I was fed well and healthy. The milkman came every day, the grocer, the butcher (肉商), the baker, and the ice-cream man delivered two or three times each week. The Sunday meat would last until Wednesday and surplus (剩余的) bread and milk became all kinds of cakes. Nothing was wasted, and we were never troubled by rotten food. Thirty years on food deliveries have ceased, fresh vegetables are almost unobtainable in the country. The invention of the fridge contributed comparatively little to the art of food preservation. Many well-tried techniques already existed – natural cooling, drying, smoking, salting, sugaring, bottling. What refrigeration did promote was marketing – marketing hardware and electricity, marketing soft drinks, marketing dead bodies of animals around the world in search of a good price. Consequently, most of the world’s fridges are to be found, not in the tropics where they might prove useful, but in the rich countries with mild temperatures where they are climatically almost unnecessary. Every winter, millions of fridges hum away continuously, and at vast expense, busily maintaining an artificially-cooled space inside an artificially-heated house – while outside, nature provides the desired temperature free of charge. The fridges effect upon the environment has been evident, while its contribution to human happiness has been not important. If you don’t believe me, try it yourself, invest in a food cabinet and mop off your fridge next winter. You may not eat the hamburger, but at least you’ll get rid of that terrible hum. (1).

12. (阅读理解题) Section B The other day, my friend Jane was invited to a 40th birthday party. The time printed on the invitation was 7:30pm. Jane went off with her husband, expecting a merry evening of wine, food, and song. By 9:45, everybody was having great fun, but no food had appeared. Jane and David were restless. Other guests began whispering that they, too, were starving. But no one wanted to leave, just in case some food was about to appear. By 11:00, there was still no food, and everyone was completely off their heads. Jane and David left hungry and angry. Their experience suggests that the words on the printed invitations need to be made clearer. Everyone reads and understands the invitations differently. Most of us would agree that 6:30 --8:30pm means drinks only, go out to dinner afterwards; 8:00pm or 8:30pm means possible dinner, but 9:30pm and any time thereafter means no food, or at beforehand, roll up late. But this is not always the case. If asked to a students. party at 6:30pm, it is normal for guests not to appear before midnight, if at all, and no one cares. Being the first to arrive - looking eager - is social death. When my mother is asked to a party for 6:30, she likes to be on time, if not on time, then no later than seven. My age group (late thirties) falls somewhere between the two, but because we still think we.re young, we.re probably closer to student-time than grown-up time. The accepted custom at present is confusing (混乱的), sometimes annoying, and it often means you may go home hungry, but it does give every party that precious element (成分) of surprise. (1). (单选题) The underlined words "off their heads" probably mean_____.(本题2.0分) A、 tired B、 crazy C、 curious D、 hopeless (2). (单选题) Jane and David’s story is used to show that___ .(本题2.0分) A、 party-goers usually get hungry at parties B、 party invitations can be confusing C、 people should ask for food at parties D、 birthday parties for middle-aged people are dull (3). (单选题) For some young people, arriving on time for a students. party will probably be considered_____.(本题2.0分) A、 very B、 particularly thoughtful C、 friendly D、 socially unacceptable (4). (单选题) According to the writer, people in their late thirties_____.(本题2.0分) A、 are likely to arrive late for a party B、 care little about the party time C、 haven’t really grown up yet D、 like surprises at parties (5). (单选题) What is the general idea of the text? (本题2.0分) A、 It’s safe to arrive late just when food is served. B、 It’s wise to eat something before going to a party. C、 It’s important to follow social rules of party-going. D、 It’s necessary to read invitations carefully. Section
13. (阅读理解题) Section C One of the qualities that most people admire in others is the willingness to admit one’s mistakes. It is extremely hard sometimes to say a simple thing like “I was wrong about that,” and it is even harder to say, “I was wrong, and you were right about that.” I had an experience recently with someone admitting to me that he had made a mistake fifteen years ago. He told me he had been the manager of a certain grocery store in the neighborhood where I grew up, and he asked me if I remembered the egg cartons. Then he related an incident and I began to remember vaguely the incident he was describing. I was about eight years old at the time, and I had gone into the store with my mother to do the weekly grocery shopping. On that particular day, I must have found my way to the dairy food department where the incident took place. There must have been a special sale on eggs that day because there was an impressive display of eggs in-dozen and half-dozen cartons. The cartons were stacked three or four feet high. I must have stopped in front of a display to admire the stacks. Just then a woman came by pushing her grocery cart and knocked off the stacks of cartons. For some reason, I decided it was up to me to put the display back together, so I want to work. The manager heard the noise and came rushing over to see what had happened. When he appeared, I was on my knees inspecting some of the cartons to see if any of the eggs were broken, but to him it looked as though I was the culprit. He severely reprimanded me and wanted me to pay for any broken eggs. I protested my innocence and tried to explain, but it did no good. Even though I quickly forgot all about the incident, apparently the manager did not. (1).
