18、00)Complaints should be made to a responsible person. Go back to the shop where you bought the goods, taking with you any 1 you may have. Ask to see the buyer in a large store. In a small store the assistant may also be the owner so you can complain 2 . In a chain store ask to see the manager. Even
19、the bravest person finds it difficult to complain face to face, so if you do not want to do it in 3 , write a letter. Be sure to 4 to the facts and keep a copy of what you write. At this stage you should give any receipt numbers, but you should not need to give receipts or other papers to prove you
20、bought the article. If you are not 5 with the answer you get, or if you do not get a reply, write to the managing director of the firm, shop, or organization. Be sure to keep copies of your own letters and any you receive. If your complaint is a just one, the shopkeeper may offer to 6 or repair the
21、faulty article. You may find this an 7 solution. In certain cases you may have the right to refuse the goods and ask for your money back, but this is only where you have hardly used the goods and have acted at once. Even when you cannot refuse the goods you may be able to get some money back as well
22、. And if you have suffered some 8 loss, if for example a new washing machine tears your clothes, you might receive money to replace them. If the shopkeeper offers you a credit note to be used to buy goods in the same shops but you would rather have money, say so. If you accept a credit note remember
23、 that later you will not be able to ask for your money. If the shopkeeper refuses to give you money, ask for 9 from your Citizens“ Advice Bureau before you accept a credit note. In some cases the shopkeeper does not have to give you your money backif, for example, he changes an article simply becaus

25、AKimberly Gervaise, a stay-at-home mother of three in Little Silver, N.J., joined Facebook five years ago and only posts every couple of months, mostly sharing photos from special events, like birthdays. She has 393 friends, and wishes some of them would tuck it in (收敛) a bit. “I get a little annoye
26、d about people who feel the need to post a picture of a straight-A report cardand there are many,“ she says. “I am sure that most of the time, they are just proud, but I find it annoying.“ BGervaise says more and more mothers are using Facebook as a platform to boast about their lives, their kids, t
27、heir parenting techniques. And that“s making it harder and harder for moms like her to log on without getting slapped in the face. Bragging about your kids is nothing new, but before Facebook, the Compare they“ve changed how much people brag,“ says Dr. Pamela Rutledge, director of the Media Psycholo
28、gy Research Center. “The ability to publicize so much has blurred the line between sharing and boasting. When you brag in a group, you notice when they wander away. When you brag on Facebook, it“s harder to tell who you“re alienating.“ KDr. Saedi, author of the blog Millennial Media, thinks it“s imp
29、ortant to keep it all in perspective. “Remember that, like TV, not everything you see on Facebook is true. No one“s life is perfect. And the more that people try to prove how great it is, the more it“s often a sign that it“s not. It“s important for rooms on Facebook to take a step back, get some dis
30、tance and reassess.“ LMany feeling-smothered mothers don“t want to “step back“; they want to escape, to be free. “I deleted my Facebook account!“ crows a stay-at-home room of two in Austin, Texas. “I hated the “Keeping up with the Joneses“ behavior that Facebook engenders.“ Not everyone is readyor a
31、bleto completely cut the Facebook umbilical cord (脐带). One morn decided she just needed to take control of her page, and silence the braggers and know-everythings. “I cleaned house a year ago and only connect with people I“m actually friends or family with,“ she says. “I found that I“d catch up on F
32、acebook and be bad-tempered after, so I changed my profile to only let Facebook be what I want it to be.“ MEven mommy-blogger Melton took a Facebook vacation. For 40 days, the 101,000 followers of her Momastery website waited patiently as she took a rest. It was during this break that she realized h
33、ow unhappy Facebook made her at times. “I called my younger sister the other day and said, “I“m going to quit Facebook. I don“t use it right. Whether I want to or not, I just end up comparing myself to everyone else.“ N“And (my) sister said, “Actually, you“re using it for the exact thing it was orig
34、inally designed for. Remember, some college guys made it so that students could compare women to each other and decide who was hotter.“ Melton ponders this for a moment. “And I thought, Ah. Right. Huh. The origin of Facebook is really annoying and offensive, when you think about it. And even more an
35、noying is that we often still use it for what it was originally intended: comparison.“（分数：70.00）(1).Comparison was the original function when people designed Facebook and the function has been in use since then.（分数：7.00）(2).People on Facebook are not required to tell completely true stories about th
36、emselves when sharing information with others.（分数：7.00）(3).Kimberly Gervaise hopes some of her almost 400 hundred friends on Facebook can be modest a bit.（分数：7.00）(4).A morn from Fall Church, Va. is fed up with the endless comparison and the show-off of one“s perfect life on Facebook.（分数：7.00）(5).Du

39、Dr. Sadei thinks that when people post their perfect life on Facebook, the reality may not be the case.（分数：7.00）十一、Section C(总题数：0，分数：0.00)十二、Passage One(总题数：1，分数：72.00)On the high-speed train from Avignon (阿维尼翁) to Paris, my husband and I landed in the only remaining seats on the train, in the midd
40、le of a car, directly opposite a Frenchwoman of middle years. It was an extremely uncomfortable arrangement to be looking straight into the eyes of a stranger. My husband and I pulled out books. The woman produced a large makeup case and proceeded to freshen up. Except for a lunch break, she continu
41、ed this activity for the entire three-hour trip. Every once in a while she surveyed the car with a bright-eyed glance, but never once did she catch my (admittedly fascinated) eye. My husband and I could have been a blank wall . I was amused, but some people would have felt insulted, even repulsed (厌
42、恶的). There is something about primping in public that calls up strong emotional reactions. Partly it“s a question of hygiene. (Nearly everyone agrees that nail-paling and hair-combing are socially considered unwise to do.) And it“s a matter of degree. Groominga private acthas a way of negating the p
43、resence of others. I was once seated at a party with a model-actress who immediately waved a silly brush and began dusting her face at the table, demonstrating that while she was next to me, she was not with me. In fact, I am generally inhibited from this maneuver in public, except when I am in the
44、company of cosmetics executives (when it“s considered unpleasant not to do it) or my female friends when it“s a fun just-us-girls moment. In a gathering more professional than social, I would refrain. Kathy Peiss, a history professor at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst and an authority on
45、American beauty rituals, says that nose-powdering in the office was an occasion for outrage in 1920“s and 30“s. Deploring the practice as a waste of company time, trade journals advised managers to discourage it among clerical workers. But how much time could it take? Certainly the concern was out o
46、f proportion with the number of minutes lost. Peiss theorizes that it was the blatant assertion of a female practice in what had been an all-male province that disturbed critics. Peiss tells me that after the 30“s, pulling out a compact was no longer an issue. It became an accepted practice. I ask i
47、f she feels free to apply lipstick at a professional lunch herself. Sounding mildly shocked, she says she would save that for the privacy of her car afterward. Why? Because it would be “a gesture of inappropriate femininity.“ One guess is that most professional women feel this way. There is evidence
48、 of the popularity of the new lipsticks that remain in place all day without retouching. It“s amazing to think that in our talk-show society, where every sexual practice is openly discussed, a simple sex-specific gesture could still have the power to disturb. The move belongs in the female arsenal a
49、nd, like weapons, must be used with caution.（分数：72.00）(1).According to the author, “My husband and I could have been a blank wall.“ (Para. 1) most probably means “_“.（分数：14.40）A.We were treated with an expressionless face.B.We looked at the French woman expressionlessly.C.We used books as a wall to avoid the woman“s eyes.D.We were of no existence in the French woman“s eyes.(2).In the author“s opinion, she _.（分数：14.40）A.allows public making up on certain occasion
