In my bedroom.But my family and friends are starting to get worried. Youve changed me. I do not like the person I see in the mirror. Ive stopped going to the beach because I want you with me at all times and you cant stand the heat.

We lived on a farm, and in the winter especially, we were quite cut off from the outside world. As soon as I left school, I packed my bags and moved to the capital. However, I soon discovered that city life has its problems, too. One big disadvantage is money. It costs so much to go out, not to mention basics like food and housing. Another disadvantage is pollution. I suffer from asthma(哮喘), and at times the air is so bad that I am afraid to go outside. Then there is the problem of traveling round. Although I have a car, I seldom use it because of the traffic jams. One choice is to go by bicycle, but that can be quite dangerous. Of course there are advantages. First, there is so much to do in the city, whatever your tastes in culture or entertainment(娱乐活动). Besides, there are wonderful jobs and greater chances of moving to a more important job or position. Finally, if you like shopping, the variety of goods is very surprisingand, what is more, shops are often only a short walk away. Is life better then, in the city? Perhaps it is, when you are in your teens or twenties. However, as you get older, and especially if you have small children, the peace of the countryside may seem preferable. I certainly hope to move back there soon. 28. What was the writer always thinking about when he was a child? A. Staying on the farm. B. Leaving home for the city. C. Moving to the countryside. D. Running away from the school.29. Which of the following is true about the writer? A. He is very old now. B. He is in good health. C. He lives in the city now. D. He prefers driving a car.30. In the passage, the writer tries to _. A. express his opinions about way of life B. describe his life in the countryside C. have an interest in the outside world D. persuade the reader to live in the city31. How is the passage mainly developed? A. By inferring. B. By giving explanations. C. By listing examples. D. By comparing.DI got my first drivers license(执照)in 1953 by taking driver education in my first year at Central High School in Charlotte, North Carolina. Four years later when it was time to renew（更新） my license I was a married woman. Henry and I were living in Baltimore, Maryland. Two weeks before my 20th birthday, Henry drove me to the motor vehicle office on a hot July afternoon. When I got to the office and showed to the man behind the counter my North Carolina drivers license, ready to renew, the man told me that I was under the age by Maryland law since I was not yet 21. “Mr. Henry Smith, your husband, will have to sign for you,” he said.I argued, pointing to a very large belly(肚子)of mine,” I am married. I am having a baby. Why should I have to have someone sign for me to drive?” He answered coldly, “Its the law, madam?”Henry encouraged me to calm down, just go ahead and get the license and be done with it “No.” I said. I refused to have him sign for me. So I left without a Maryland license.I called the North Carolina Motor Vehicle Office and renewed my NC license by mail-using my name Susan Brown. And thus it was for the next twelve years. Since Henry was in the army I could drive under my home state license. By the time Henry left the army we were once again living in Maryland, and I had to take the Maryland drivers exam. Since then I just go in and renew every four years-sign the name Susan Brown, have my new picture taken, and walk out with a license to drive.32. Susan got her first drivers license .A. before she got married to Henry B. when she was twenty years oldC. after she finished high school D. when she just moved to Maryland33. Susan failed to renew her license the first time in Maryland because .A. she was forbidden to drive by Maryland law B. she lacked driving experience in MarylandC. she was to give birth to a baby soon D. she insisted on signing for herself34. We can infer from the text that in the U.S. .A. American males should serve in the army B. different states may have different laws C. people have to renew their licenses in their home statesD. women should adopt their husbands family names after marriage35. By Maryland law a person may get a drivers license at least by the age of_.A. 18 B. 20 C.21 D. 16第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。信息匹配阅读下面6款数码产品的介绍，并按照要求匹配信息。以下是不同款式数码产品的介绍：ACool Design MP4 Player1GB1.8Inch ScreenVery coollooking MP4 Player，Combining 65,000 OLED screen，easy to use design，a playback function in MP3 or WMA，digital picture slideshow function，and USB 2 with Plug and Play，this wholesale MP4 is easily worth more than its low price.Easy to understand menus，and responsive buttons.Sample Price：$28.00B16GB MP4/MP3 Player with 2.7Inch LCDPocketsized PMP16GB Portable Media Player (PMP)with crisp (清新的)TFT LCD touch screen.Many functions and features.Starting with an easy to use interface for accessing music，videos，pictures，ebooks，and portable data storage.If you want an MP4 player perfect for videos，then the crisp 2.7inch TFT screen is a beauty.Sample Price：$81.25CMusic Lovers MP4 Player,4GB，RedThe Red version of the popular Music Lovers MP4 Player.For all you PMP fans who crave having excellent quality sound from your music，and demand being able to adjust music for the best possible results，then this new super HQ red 4GB China version Music Lovers Edition MP4 Player is the portable media that you should be looking at.Sample Price：$ 40.75DWatch MP4 Player,2GB,1.5Inch OLED Screen The Original MP4 Player Watch as featured on tech news all over the Internetthe cool gadget(小配件)everyones been waiting for.This is a digital watch with a 1.5inch full color video screen and 2GB of flash memory.You can watch videos on your watch and listen to MP3 music.Browse your digital picture and digitally record sound!Sample Price：$44.25E3.0Inch LCD,7.2M CCD Digital Camera3X Optical Zoom This is Digital Camera with large 3.0inch LCD display and builtin 32MB flash also compatible with 2GB SD card.Features high quality 7.2M pixel CCD imaging sensor and max still image resolution is 8.0M pixels with interpolation.Built in speaker and microphone，it could be an MP3 player and comes with 3.5mm earphone jack.Fashion design and one Lion battery to give power supply.Sample Price：$161.25FOutstanding 4.3Inch Touchscreen，Bluetooth，Car DVDTV Outstanding 4.3inch touch screen car DVD player with Bluetooth and TV.Youll be impressed by the vibrant 480234 pixel screen as it plays your DVDs and the USB port will ensure youll always have some handy media options.With a great Bluet
