15、ories. The older he grew, the fonder he became of them. But he always regretted they had to have an end. So he decided to give half his wealth and his beautiful daughter to the man who could tell him a story without an end. Anybody who failed would be sent to prison for life. The risk was so great t

16、hat nobody came to the palace to tell the Prince a story for a whole year. Then one day, a tall, handsome young man came and said he wanted to tell a story that would go on forever. The Prince agreed but warned him what would happen if he failed. “The risk is worth your fair daughter, “ the young ma

17、n replied poetically (得体地). He then began this well-known story:“ Once upon a time there was a certain King who feared famine. So he ordered his men to build an enormous storehouse, which he filled with corn. Then, when it was up, made water-proof and fire-proof, the King felt happy. But one day he

18、noticed a small hole in the roof and as he looked at it, a locust came out with a grain of corn. A minute later, another locust came out with another grain of corn. Then a third locust with another grain of corn. Then a fourth locust, flying at great speed, pushed through the hole and came out with

19、two grains of corn. Then a fifth locust came and. . . “Stop, “ shouted the Prince. “I cant, “ answered the young man. “I must go on until I tell you what happened to each grain of the corn. “ “But that will go on forever. “ The Prince protested. “Exactly, “ the young man replied, and he smiled as he

20、 turned towards the Princes beautiful young daughter.41 The Prince always felt regretted about story because_.（A）he had too much wealth（B） there was a terrible famine（C） all stories have ends（D）there was no story-teller42 The young man risked to tell an endless story to the Prince for_.（A）a great su

21、m of money（B） the Princes beautiful daughter（C） showing his bravery（D）Both A and C43 The young man would be sent to prison_ if he failed to tell a story without an end.（A）forever（B） for some time（C） for a while（D）for a year44 In order to prevent famine, the King asked to build_.（A）a huge storehouse（

22、B） a large farm（C） a beautiful palace（D）a waterproof kitchen45 The thing the king noticed first in the roof was_.（A）a loaf（B） a small hole（C） a grain of corn（D）a locust45 Packaging is an important form of advertising. A package can sometimes motivate someone to buy a product. For example, a small ch

23、ild might ask for a breakfast food that comes in a box with a picture of a TV character. The child is more interested in the picture than in the breakfast food. Pictures for children to color or cut out, games printed on a package, or small gifts inside a box also motivate many children to buy produ

24、cts or to ask their parents for them.Some packages suggest that a buyer will get something for nothing. Food products sold in reusable containers are examples of this. Although a similar product in a plain container might cost less, people often prefer to buy the product in a reusable glass or dish,

25、 because they believe the container is free. However, the cost of the container is added to the cost of the product.The size of a package also motivates a buyer. Maybe the package has “ Economy Size“ printed on it. This suggests that the large size has the most product for the least money. But that

26、is not always true. To find out, a buyer has to know how the product is sold and the price of the basic unit.The information on the package should provide some answers. But the important thing for any buyer to remember is that a package is often an advertisement. The words and pictures do not tell t

27、he whole story. Only the product inside can do that.46 Which of the following statements could best summarize the main idea of the passage?（A）Children are interested in some packages of products.（B） Package is one of the important ways of advertising.（C） People prefer to buy the products in plain co

28、ntainers.（D）The size of a package usually motivates a buyer.47 The phrase “a buyer will get something for nothing“ ( Line 1, Para 2 ) probably means_.（A）a buyer will get something free of charge（B） a buyer will get something useless（C） a buyer will get something useful（D）nothing is worth buying48 Wh

29、ich of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?（A）Sometimes people are easily motivated by packages.（B） Small children sometimes are more interested in games printed on a package than the product itself.（C） A product in a reusable container must be cheaper than a similar produc

30、t in a plain container.（D）Economy Size doesnt always suggest that people can buy the most product for the least money.49 What does the word “ them “ ( Line 5, Para. 1 ) refer to?（A）Small gifts.（B） Pictures.（C） Games.（D）Products.50 What does the author imply in the last paragraph?（A）Package is just a

31、n advertisement.（B） Buyers shouldnt believe the information on the package too much.（C） The package has nothing to do at all with the product.（D）Buyers can always find answers in the information on the package.50 For any Englishman, there can never be any discussion as to who is the worlds greatest

32、poet and greatest dramatist. Only one name can possibly suggest itself to him: that of William Shakespeare. Every Englishman has some knowledge, however slight, of the works of our greatest writer. All of us use words, phrases and quotations from Shakespeares writings that have become part of the co

33、mmon property of English-speaking people. Most of the time we are probably unaware of the source of the words we use, rather like the old lady who was taken to see a performance of HAMLET and complained that “it was full of well-known proverbs and quotations. “Shakespeare, more perhaps than any othe

34、r writer, made full use of the great resources of the English language. Most of us use about five thousand words in our normal employment of English; Shakespeare in his works used about twenty-five thousand. There is probably no better way for a foreigner to appreciate the richness and variety of th

35、e English language than by studying the various ways in which Shakespeare used it. Such a study is well worth the effort (it is not, of course, recommended to beginners) even though some aspects of English usage, and the meaning of many words, have changed since Shakespeares day.51 English people_.（

36、A）have never discussed who is the worlds greatest poet and greatest dramatist（B） never discuss about the worlds? greatest poets or dramatists（C） are sure who is the worlds greatest poet and greatest dramatist（D）do not care who is the worlds greatest poet and greatest dramatist52 Every Englishman kno

37、ws_.（A）more or less about Shakespeare（B） Shakespeare, but only slightly（C） all the Shakespeares writings（D）only the name of the greatest English writer53 Which of the following is TRUE?（A）We use all the words, phrases and quotations from Shakespeares writings.（B） Shakespeares writings have become th

38、e property of those who are learning to speak English.（C） It is likely to be true that people often do not know the origin of the words they use.（D）All the words people use are taken from Shakespeares writings.54 “HAMLET“ is_.（A）a play written by Shakespeare（B） a play recommended by Shakespeare（C） a

39、 play appreciated by Shakespeare（D）a play people have been complaining about55 It is worthwhile to study the various ways in which Shakespeare used English because_.（A）English words have changed a lot since Shakespeares time（B） by doing so one can be fully aware of the richness of English language（C

40、） English words are now being used in the same way as in Shakespeares days（D）English words are now the same in various ways as in Shakespeares days55 Most cities and/or states in the U. S. collect a sales tax on almost everything you buy. You must ask when you move into a new community how much the

41、local sales tax is, and what items are and are not taxable. Both taxable items and the amount of tax vary considerably from place to place, from one or two percent in some places up to eight or ten in others. The New York City sales tax, for example, is currently 8%, so if you buy a pair of $40 shoe

42、s you will actually have to pay $43.20. This makes paying and getting correct change much more difficult (not to mention making everything more expensive) .Another thing that makes money changes more complicated is tipping. The Chinese people have happily put an end to tipping, but Westerners are st

43、ill plagued(遭受折磨) with this indignity. Waiters and waitresses, cab drivers, hotel bellboys, barbers and hairdressers and all sorts of other people must be tipped. Their employers give them low wages because it is expected that you, the customer, will make up the difference. If you dont, the service

44、person cant earn a living. Tipping also varies from place to place, generally in the area of 15% of your bill ( before taxes) , but again you should ask local residents whom to tip and how much.There is another kind of tipping as well. You are generally expected to give something ( either cash or a

45、bottle of whisky) to the mailman at Christmas time. You should discuss this also with neighbors and friends.56 The main idea of this passage is_.（A）shopping and tipping（B） sales and shopping（C） sales taxes and tipping（D）sales taxes and people57 According to the passage, if you buy a pair of $50 shoe

46、s in the New York City, you pay extra _as sales tax.（A）$4.5（B） $4（C） $5（D）$5.5058 Usually, cab drivers_.（A）get high wages from the employer（B） get great benefits from the employer（C） get low wages from the employer（D）get prize from the employer59 According to the passage, which of the following stat

47、ements is true?（A）The Chinese people have to pay tips in western countries.（B） The Westerners dont have to pay high tips in their own country.（C） Barbers, hotel bellboys and all sorts of other people can earn a living if they are not tipped.（D）Tipping varies from place to place, generally in the are

48、a of 20% of your bill.60 Usually, taxable items and the amount of tax_.（A）have no difference from place to place in the U. S.（B） are over 15% in the U. S.（C） have been put an end in the U. S.（D）vary from place to place in the U. S.三、Cloze60 Most Americans dont like to get advice from members of their family.
