    7．Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman．A man goes shopping because he needs something．All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want．If the shop has it in stock，the salesman immediately finds it，and the business of trying it on follows at once．All being well，the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes．
    For a man，small problems may begin when the shop doesn't have what he wants．In that case，the saleswoman tries to sell the customer something else．"I know this jacket is not the style you want，sir，but would you like to try it for size？It happens to be the colour you mentioned．"Few men have patience with this treatment，and the usual response is："This is the right colour and may be the right size，but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on．"
    However，a woman in almost every respect does so in the opposite way．Her shopping is not often based on need and she is only"having a look around"．She is always open to persuasion； indeed she sets great store by what the saleswoman tells her．She will try on any number of things．Most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes．They are always on the lookout for the unexpected bargain．Faced with a roomful of dresses，a woman may easily spend an hour going from one room to another，often retracing her steps，before selecting the dresses she wants to try on．It is a laborious process，but apparently an enjoyable one．Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands．

    21．The underlined part"sets great store by"in paragraph 3meansC．
    A．has much information about                
    B．knows nothing about
    C．believes in                               
    D．has her doubts about
    22．What does the passage tell us about women shoppers for clothes？A
    A．They welcome suggestions from others．
    B．They rarely consider buying cheap clothes．
    C．They predict what they want to buy．
    D．They listen to advice but never take it．
    23．What can we learn from the passage？B
    A．Men never buy what they need．
    B．A man's shopping is often based on need．
    C．A woman goes shopping in order to look for cheap things．
    D．A woman's shopping is never based on need．

    分析 本文属于说明文阅读，作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了男性与女性在购买服装方面的差异，男性购买时目标明确，并且不容易被推销员说服，而女性正好相反，她们会尝试一切事物，却喜欢比较和还价．

    解答 21．C．词义推断题．根据文章第三段"She is always open to persuasion； indeed she sets great store by what the saleswoman tells her．She will try on any number of things"可知意为女人会相信售货员的话；故选C．
    22．A．细节理解题．根据文章第三段"She is always open to persuasion； indeed she sets great store by what the saleswoman tells her．She will try on any number of things"可知女人欢迎售货员给她们提建议；故选A．
    23．D．细节理解题、根据文章最后一段"Her shopping is not often based on need and she is only"having a look around"．"可知一个女人的购物从来都不是根据需要来的；故选D．

    点评 考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力，做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确的选择．在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．

    8．[1]The little country schoolhouse was heated by an old-fashioned coal stove．An eight-year-old boy named Glenn Cunningham had the job of coming to school early each day so that he could use kerosene （煤油） to start the fire and warm the room before his teacher and his classmates arrived．One cold morning someone mistakenly filled the kerosene container he used with gasoline，and disaster struck．
    [2]The class and teacher arrived to find the schoolhouse was in flames．Terrified on realizing that Glenn was inside，they rushed in and managed to take the unconscious little boy out of the flaming building，more dead than alive．He had major burns over the lower half of his body and was rushed to a nearby country hospital．
    [3]From his bed，the badly burned，semi-conscious little boy faintly heard the doctor talking to his mother．The doctor told his mother that her son would surely die for the terrible fire had destroyed the lower part of his body．
    [4]But the brave boy didn't want to die．Glenn made up his mind that he would survive．And somehow，to the amazement of the doctor，he did ___．Yet when the danger of dying was past，he again heard the doctor and his mother speaking quietly．The mother was told that since the fire had destroyed so much flesh in his legs that it would almost be better if he had died，since he was surely to be a lifetime cripple （瘸子） with no use at all of his legs．His mother refused to let the doctors cut off his legs．
    [5]Once more this brave little boy made up his mind．He would not be a cripple．He would walk．But unfortunately，from the waist down，Glenn had no motor ability．His thin legs just hung there，all but lifeless．
    [6]Eventually，Glenn was released from the hospital．Every day afterwards，his mother and father would massage（按摩） his legs，but there was no feeling，no control，nothing．Yet his determination that he would walk was as strong as ever．
    [7]When he wasn't in bed，he had to be in a wheelchair．One sunny day his mother wheeled him out into the yard to get some fresh air．This day，instead of sitting there，he threw himself from the chair．Glenn pulled himself across the grass，dragging his legs behind him．
    [8]He worked his way to the white fence bordering their yard．With great efforts，he raised himself up on the fence．Then he began dragging himself along the fence，determined that he would walk．He started to do this every day until he wore a smooth path all around the yard beside the fence．There was nothing he wanted more than to develop life in those legs．
    [9]Eventually，through the daily massage and his determination，Glenn did develop the ability first to stand up，then to walk with help，then to walk by himself-and finally miraculously-to run．
    [10]Glenn began to run to school．He ran for the joy of running and being able to run．He ran everywhere that he could．The people in his town would often see him run by on his way who knows where and smile．Later in college Glenn made the track team where his tremendous determination paid off．He eventually received the nickname the"Kansas Flyer．"In February 1934，in New York City，this determined young man，Dr．Glenn Cunningham，ran the mile in four minutes and eight seconds，the world's fastest indoor mile!

    After 30 years （25）as a pilot，Captain Peter Elliott got to fly holiday-makers on a Thomas Cook flight from Birmingham，UK，to Tenerife，Spain with his daughter．
    Senior First Officer Laura Elliott （26）has been flying/has flown（fly） for six years but has never before got to work with her father．"It's my dream to be able to fly with my Dad，"she said．
    It had seemed unlikely that the pair would ever co-pilot （27）the same aircraft because Miss Elliott learned to fly on Airbus planes when she joined the company in 2009，and her father flew Boeings．However，after Peter Elliott，59，retrained to fly Airbuses，their dream of flying together came true．
    Miss Elliott，30，became interested in flying when （28）inspd（inspire） by her father with a trial flight as her birthday present．Miss Elliott said："Becoming a pilot was never something I had considered．It was only when my Dad bought me a trial flight for my 18th birthday （29）that I considered following in my Dad's footsteps．"
    The pair finally sat in the cockpit （驾驶员座舱） together and Mr Elliott made an announcement to passengers （30）that the flight made it a special day for him as he was flying with his daughter．
    Miss Elliott recalled the flight，（31）saying（say），"I was initially nervous and he kept asking （32）whether I was nervous or not．It was like going for a driving lesson with him．Thankfully，everything went smoothly and the passengers loved it．If it ever happens again，I will definitely be a lot （33）more relaxed（relaxed）．"

    12．The secret of domestic happiness is having two daughters，according to a study．
    In a finding that will surprise many parents，researchers concluded that two girls are unlikely to fight，will play nicely together，rarely annoy their parents and tend not to wind each other up．Thsy also make little noise，seldom ignore each other and are more likely to confide in their mother or father，scientists claim．But doubling the number of daughters is a recipe for disaster，with parents of four girls the least happy with their domestic set-up．
    Researchers questioned thousands of mothers and fathers of under-16s to come up with the recipe for a harmonious family life．Those with two girls were most likely to say their children wee easy to reason with，helped around the house and generally got on well with each other．But parents of four girls reported trying to end an average of four fights a day．One in three frequently found it hard to cope，and two-thirds had buy a bigger house or car to accommodate their family．Overall，mothers and fathers with four children of any gender were more likely to find family life a struggle，with mornings，mealtimes and bedtimes the most common source of conflict．And parents of large families more often admitted neglecting one or more of their children on occasion or struggling to share their attention equally．
    After two girls，the second most appealing combination of children was one child and one boy，with 86per cent of parents saying their little boy and little girl were genuine friends．Two siblings of the opposite genders rarely argue over toys and are easy to reason with，but suffer from a lack of shared interests as they grow up，the researchers claim．
    The third most favorable combination was two boys，with parents saying their sons pay each other lots of attention and are close friends-but are less likely to donfide in their mum or dad as they grow up．

    55．The underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 means"B"．
    A．if you have more children，you'll enjoy a happy life
    B.4daughters are likely to result in an unhappy family
    C．the numbers of daughters can decide family happiness
    D．a multi-child family can benefit from delicious meals
    56．In a 4-child family，parents are more likely toC．
    A．get equal attention from their children
    B．see shared interests among their children
    C．have heavy financial burdens to take on
    D．enjoy the comfort of a harmonious mealtime
    57．What 2children of the same or opposite genders share is thatD．
    A．they often invite trouble for their parents
    B．they will have complete trust in their parents
    C．they can have lots of common interests
    D．they can both develop a real friendship with each other
    58．The passage is mainly written toB．
    A．prove girls are easier to raise than boys
    B．tell readers about a research finding
    C．share the sorrow and joys of being parents
    D．compare the difference between boys and girls．
