阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
Patricia was worried．She had a job interview, and she wanted to look good．She decided to get some new clothes．The store owner, Pallas Hansen, helped Patricia find a suit．But when she left the store, she didn’t pay for the suit!
How could Patricia do this? She was in a special store called Career Closet in San Jose, California．Pallas Hansen and Charlotte Krumwiede started this nonprofit store to help women．They knew that many women don’t find jobs because they don’t have the right clothes for a job interview．Women who don’t have a lot of money have to use their money to buy food and clothes for their children．They can’t buy clothes for themselves.
Pallas and Charlotte started the store in 1992 after they heard about a store like this in Chicago．Volunteers work in the store．Working women donate most of the clothes to the store．This makes it possible for the customers at Career Closet to get clothes for free.
Career Closet has helped 2,500 San Jose women, but clothes aren’t the only things women get at the store．They also get confidence．Patricia is 36 years old．Her husband was hurt in an accident, and Patricia needed a job to support her seven children．She went to Career Closet and got a jacket, a skirt, and a blouse．“The whole day made me feel special,” she said．Patricia was a success at her interview, and she got the job．One reason why she got it was that she was wearing the right clothes for the workplace.
Pallas says,” I love this job．Sixty percent of the women get jobs．It’s like being a fairy god-mother.”

Dear Mr．Watson,
CLAIM AL54323432–-STORM DAMAGE TO ROOF
I received a cheque for $623 dated 26 January in payment of my recent claim(索赔)．However, I wish to tell you how upset I have been by the way your Claims Assessor, Mr．Michael Tan, handled this claim．
When Mr．Tan first called me, he specifically told me that he believed I had been overcharged, and he would expect to pay that price for work on a double garage, rather than a single garage like mine．Mr．Tan suggested that I neither use nor recommend this contractor again．He continued to tell me it was unlikely for me to receive full payment．Never during this conversation did he mention that the reason for not receiving full payment was because of the nature of my insurance policy．
Consequently, I wrote to Mr．Lance Ashe to complain about his pricing, stating that I was very upset thinking that he could have taken advantage by overcharging a 73-year-old woman．Mr．Ashe telephoned me immediately and explained his charges in detail．He later reported back to me that Mr．Tan explained that I would not receive full payment because of the type of policy I hold, which does not cover wear and tear．This was the first time this issue had been brought to my attention, so you can imagine my surprise．
When I received Mr．Tan’s letter of 2 February, this situation was explained．If this had been explained in the first place I would have accepted it and would not have questioned Mr．Ashe’s charges．Instead, by telling me initially that I had been overcharged for this work, he caused a great deal of upset, not only for me but also for Mr．Ashe．
I believed this claim was handled badly by Mr．Tan from the beginning．Therefore, a great deal of embarrassment has been caused over this issue．
I felt you should know how disappointed and upset I am．I trust you will look into this and ensure that such claims are handled more appropriately in the future．
Yours sincerely,
Mrs．Richard
1.We can learn from the passage that Mr．Tan works in a/an _______.

C．local affairs office
D．insurance company
2.The underlined words “the contractor” in Para.2 refer to ______.

Mum，it’s me．Hopefully，this Mothering Sunday you will get to hear those three words．I will，of course，try to phone you．I hope we will be able to speak for the allowed 10 minutes．But I suspect many inmates will be using the phone，so if I don’t call and if we don’t speak，then this is what I would have said：
It’s not your fault that I am here．I know that deep in your heart you have questioned whether my current circumstance is somehow your fault，if the reckless stupidity of my past is somehow a failure on your part．It is not．Only one person is to blame，only one person should hurt — me．You have always taught me that when the room goes dark，you can wait for the lights to be switched back on or you can search in the dark and turn the light on yourself．You are my light．You always have been and always will be．There is nobody I admire more，nobody I have strived harder to please in my life，which is why my current failure hurts me so much．
I am so sorry that I will not be there to see you，but I want you to know that now，as always，you are here with me．In my darkest hours，and in the coldest loneliness of my past few months，my mind has so often wandered to the past，to when it was you and me — and I have been able to smile．Yours is the strength that I draw upon．
A parent’s job is to make sure that they pass on the best of themselves to their children．You have done that．It is the inner you in me that will get me through this．
I have failed you so epically，but you have never failed me．If I think back to the tears I shed when Dad left，all those years ago，I see you through their misty glaze．You holding me and you telling me we’d be OK，and we will be．We are and always will be the best team．
Childhood heroes such as footballers，actors and rock stars are clichéd． If the job’s done right，a child’s heroes should be their parents — you are mine．The strength you showed after the divorce from Dad to find your biological parents，to go to university and get your teaching qualifications，to begin your life again，is the strength that I draw on now．It is the belief in myself，it is the belief you have in me，that tells me that once I am released I can and will rebuild my life．I will make you proud again．I will make you happy to have me as your son．Yours is the will that gets me through every day．
I don’t believe you can judge a person for the mistakes they make，as we all make them，but you can judge them for what they do afterwards．And after this，when it is all over，you will still have a son with the same hopes and dreams．They have not diminished． If you can dream it，then you have to believe it can happen — right？
So this Mothering Sunday，please think back to that morning in the 80s，the first Mother’s Day without Dad，when a six year old me got up early and made breakfast for you．Do you remember it？Could you ever forget？A slice of bread a doorstep thick and a wedge of cheese equally dense．You didn’t have to eat it，but you did，chewing every dry mouthful．I know now why you forced yourself — because it had been made with love．Well，things don’t change this year — this letter is that bread and cheese (it sure has plenty of the cheese！)．
I love you so much．I am sorry I have let you down，but you have taught me that we will always pick ourselves up and become better than we were before．Thank you for everything and this year，more than ever：
Happy Mothering Sunday．
Love，your son

Sina Weibo, one of the country’s most popular micro blogging sites,has launched a paid service．For a 10 yuan ($ l．57) monthly fee, users get a membership on their Sina Weibo accounts．
According to Xu Yuanyuan, a member of the marketing team at Sina, themove is to guarantee a more convenient and safer environment for users．But despite the company’s efforts to increase income, it seems that most of its 300 million users still prefer the free version．

Mars( 火星) appears to be flowing with small streams of salty water, at least in the summer,scientists reported Monday. "It suggests that. it would be possible for there to be life today on Mars," NASA's science mission chief, John Grunsfeld, said at a news conference on September 28, 2015. The streams are about 12 to 15 feet wide and 300 feet or more long, scientists said.
"What we're dealing with is wet soil. thin layers of wet soil, not standing water," said Aifred McEwen of the University of Arizona at Tueson ! the principal scientist for the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter's high-resolution imaging experiment.
Because liquid water is essential to life, the findings could have major implications for the possibility of Martian life. The researchers said further exploration is needed to determine whether microscopic life exists on the planet.
The presence of liquid water could also make life easier for astronauts visiting or living on Mars. Water could be used for drinking and for creating oxygen and rocket fuel. NASA's goal is to send humans there in the 2030s.
The evidence of flowing water consists largely of dark, narrow streaks(条痕) on the surface that tend to appear and grow during the warmest Martian months and fade the rest of the year.
Mars is extremely cold even in summer, and the streaks are in places where the temperature is as low as minus 10 degrees Fahrenheit. But salt can lower the freezing point of water and melt ice.
The source(源头) of the water is a mystery. Scientists noted it could be melting ice. It could be an underground aquifer, which is rock or sand that can hold water. It is possibly water vapor from the thin Martian atmosphere, Or it may be a combination Michael Meyer, lead scientist for NASA's Mars exploration program, said the only definitive way for now to determine whether there's life on Mars is to collect rocks and soil for analysis on Earth - something a U. S. lander set for lift-off in 2020 will do.
1.What would be the best title for the text? '
A Streams of Water Spotted on Mars
B. Astronauts will Land on Mars
C. NASA's Mars Exploration Program
D. A Breakthrough in the Exploration of Mars
2.According to John Grunsfeld, there seems to be on Mars.
A. salty water
B. standing water
C. rocket fuel
D. human beings
3.Scientists are uncertain about the of the water on Mars.
A. state
B. source
C. temperature
D. taste
4.What matters to the existence of liquid water on Mars?
A. The distance from the sun.
B. The favorable climate.
C. The gravity of the earth
D．The salt in it．
