Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. 40 An embarrassing experience It was the small hours of the morning when we reached London Airport. I had cabled London from Amsterdam, and there was a hired car to meet, but there was one mor

29、e unfortunate happening before I reached my flat. In all my travels I have never, but for that once, been required by the British customs to open a single bag or to do more than state that I carried no goods liable to duty. It was, of course, my fault; the extreme tiredness and nervous tension of th

30、e journey had destroyed my diplomacy. I was, for whichever reason, so tired that I could hardly stand, and to the question, “have you read this?“ I replied with extreme foolishness, “ Yes, hundreds of times. “ “And you have nothing to declare?“ “Nothing. “ “How long have you been out of this country

31、?“ “About three months. “ “And during that time you have acquired nothing?“ “Nothing but what is on the list I have given you. “ He seemed momentarily at a loss, but then he attacked. The attack, when it came, was utterly unexpected. “Where did you get that watch?“ I could have kicked myself. Two da

32、ys ago, when playing water games with a friend in the bath, I had forgotten to take off my ROLEX OYSTER, and it had, not unnaturally, stopped. I had gone into the market and bought, for twelve shillings and six pence, an ugly time piece that made a strange noise. It had stopped twice, without any re

33、ason, during the journey. I explained, but I had already lost face. I produced my own watch from a pocket, and added that I should be grateful if he would confiscate the replacement. “It is not a question of confiscation, “ he said, “there is a fine for failing to declare dutiable goods. And now may

34、 I please examine that Rolex?“ It took another quarter of an hour to persuade him that the Rolex was not contraband; then he began to search my luggage. 41 When did the writer arrive at London airport? （ A） In the early morning. （ B） Late at night. （ C） At noon. （ D） Late in the morning. 42 What can

35、 we conclude from the questions asked by the customs officer? （ A） He was just doing his duty by asking the passenger some usual questions. （ B） He must have noticed the writers ugly watch. （ C） He wanted to embarrass the writer. （ D） He must have noticed the writers tiredness. 43 What did the write

36、r think of the watch he bought in the market? （ A） He was fond of the watch because it was a Rolex. （ B） He found the watch useful though it was very cheap. （ C） He didn t like the watch at all. （ D） He was indifferent to the watch. 44 What must have happened to the writer in the end? （ A） He must h

37、ave spent a long time at the customs and must have been let go without any punishment. （ B） He must have been given a fine as a punishment. （ C） His Rolex must have been confiscated. （ D） His cheap watch must have been confiscated. 45 What do you think is the tone of the story? （ A） Humorous. （ B） S

38、arcastic. （ C） Solemn. （ D） Matter-of-fact. 45 You must have been troubled by when to say “I love you“ because it is one of the greatest puzzles in our life. What if you say it first and your partner doesn t love you back? Or if they do say it but you dont feel they mean it? Being the first to decla

39、re your love can be nerve-racking(紧张 )and risky and can leave you feeling as vulnerable as a turtle with no shell. But is the person who says it first really in a position of weakness? Doesnt it pay to hold back, play it cool and wait until the other half has shown their hand first? “ A really good

40、relationship should be about being fair and being equal, “ says psychologist Sidney Crown. “But love is seldom equal. “ All relationships go through power struggles but, he says, if a love imbalance continues for years, the rot will set in. “That feeling of I ve always loved you more may be subverte

41、d(颠覆，破坏 )for a time, but it never goes away completely and it often e-merges in squabbhng(大声争吵 ). “ In love, at least, the silent, withholding type is not always the most powerful. “The strongest one in a relationship is often the person who feels confident enough to talk about their feelings, “ say

42、s educational psychologist Ingrid Collins. Psychosexual therapist Paula Hall agrees. “The one with the upper hand is often the person who takes the initiative. In fact, the person who says I love you first may also be the one who says Im bored with you first. “ Hall believes that much depends on how

43、 “I love you“ is said and the motivation of the person saying it. “ Is it said when they re drunk? Is it said before their partner flies off on holiday, and what it really means is Please don t be unfaithful to me ? By saying I love you , they really saying Do you love me? If so, wouldn t it just be

44、 more honest to say that?“ Collins agrees that intention is everything. “It s not what is said, but how it s said. What it comes down to is the sincerity of the speaker. “ 46 What is the main idea of this passage? （ A） The importance of “I love you“. （ B） The meaning of “I love you“. （ C） The time o
