23、time ago, I discovered that one of the chairs in my front hall had a broken leg; I didnt foresee any great difficulty in getting it mended, as there are a whole lot of antique shops on Pimlico Road which is three minutes walk from my flat, so I set forth one morning carrying the chair with me. I wen
24、t into the first shop confidently expecting a friendly reception, with a kindly man saying, “What a charming chair! Yes, thats quite a simple job. When would you want it back?“I was quite wrong. I wasnt too concerned; after all, it was only the first try and there are many more shops on both sides o
25、f the road.The reaction at the second shop, though slightly politer, was just the same, and at the third and the fourthso I decided that my approach must be wrong.I entered the fifth shop with some confidence because I had thought of a plan. I placed the chair gently on the floor, then the rather fi
26、erce shop owner looked it over carefully and said, “Yes, not a bad little chair, how much do you want for it? “20,“ I said. “Its got a slightly broken leg,“ I said. “Yes, I saw that. Its nothing; dont worry about it.“What will you do with it?“ I asked. “Oh, it will be very saleable once the repair i
27、s done, I like the bit of old green velvet on the top, I shall leave that, yes, very saleable.“ “Ill buy it,“ I said. “Yes, I know, but Ive changed my mind; as a matter of fact, it is just what Im looking for. Ive got a pair to it at home; Ill give you 27 for it.“ “You must be crazy,“ he said; then
28、suddenly the penny dropped and he smiled and said, “I know what you want, you want me to mend your chair.“And what would you have done if I had walked in and asked you to repair it for me? I wouldnt have done it,“ he said. “We dont do repairs, not enough money in it and too much of a nuisance(麻烦事情),
29、 but Ill mend this for you./(分数:10.00)(1).The author was not worried about the broken leg of the chair at first because _.A his flat was very near the antique shopsB he knew it was easy to mend itC there were so many antique shops selling chairsD he thought it was easy for him to find someone to rep

33、D.八、Text 2(总题数:1,分数:10.00)To get a chocolate out of a box requires a considerable amount of unpacking: The box has to be taken out of the paper bag in which it arrived, the cellophane wrapper has to be torn off, the lid opened and the paper removed, the chocolate itself then has to be unwrapped from
34、 its own piece of paper. But this overuse of wrapping is not confined to luxuries. It is now becoming increasingly difficult to buy anything that is not done up in beautiful wrapping.The package itself is of no interest to the shopper, who usually throws it away immediately. Useless wrapping account
35、s for much of the refuse put out by the average London household each week. So why is it done? Some of it, like the cellophane on meat, is necessary, but most of the rest is simply competitive selling. This is absurd. Packaging is using up scarce energy and resources and messing up the environment.R
36、ecycling is already happening with milk bottles which are returned to the dairies, washed out, and refilled. But both glass and paper are being threatened by the growing use of plastic. More dairies are experimenting with plastic bottles.The trouble with plastic is that it does not rot. Some environ
37、mentalists argue that the only solution to the problem of ever increasing plastic containers is to do away with plastic altogether in the shops, a suggestion unacceptable to many manufacturers who say there is no alternative to their handy plastic packs.It is evident that more research is needed int
38、o the recovery and reuse of various materials and into the cost of collecting and recycling containers as opposed to producing new ones. Unnecessary packaging, intended to be used just once, and make things look better so more people will buy them, is clearly becoming increasingly absurd. But it is
39、not so much a question of doing away with packaging as using it sensibly. What is needed now is a more advanced approach to using scarce resources for what is, after all, a relatively unimportant function.(分数:10.00)(1).“This overuse of wrapping is not confined to luxuries. “(line 4, paragraph 1) mea
40、ns _.A too much wrapping is used for both luxury and ordinary productsB more wrapping is used for luxuries than for ordinary productsC more wrapping is needed for ordinary productsD the wrapping used for luxury products is unnecessary(分数:2.00)A.B.C.D.(2).Packaging is important to manufacturers becau
41、se _.A they want to attract more shoppersB shoppers are interested in beautiful packagingC it is easy to use it againD packaged things will not go rotten(分数:2.00)A.B.C.D.(3).According to the passage, dairies are _.A increasing the use of plastic bottlesB giving up the use of glass bottlesC experimen
42、ting with the use of paper bottlesD re-using their paper containers(分数:2.00)A.B.C.D.(4).Some environmentalists think that _.A plastic packaging should be made more convenientB shops should stop using plastic containersC too much plastic is wastedD no alternative can be found to plastic packaging(分数:

44、 of helping people comes naturally to most of us. If we see a blind person getting off a bus, we watch to make sure that he is in no danger of falling. Members of a family help one another, with particular care for the very young and the elderly.There are many people who have nobody near to see thei
45、r need for help and often nobody to give it even when the need is known. The old, the handicapped, the homeless and friendless these are the people for whom help may not come, because nobody sees. It may not have occurred to you that you are in a position to help. Community service means helping the
46、 people around you. Organizations exist which try to make sure that someone sees when help is needed and does something about it. These organizations depend on voluntary help to carry out a wide variety of tasks, volunteers giving up a little of their spare time to lend a hand.If you wish to take pa
47、rt in this worthwhile activity, what sort of things would you do? Think of the people most in need of help and the ways in which help can be given. Much of the work of community service is concerned with the care of the elderly and the handicapped. Old people cannot always redecorate their homes. Ho
48、usehold repairs, cleaning, preparing food or taking care of the garden may all prove difficult. Elderly people with failing eyesight are delighted if a friend comes in to read or to write letters for them. A helping hand and a friendly face can mean a great deal to a lonely elderly person.Handicapped people may be young or old. People confined to wheelchairs cannot go
