At least once each winter I manage to get a good flight in the middle of a snowstorm. Last Sunday was that flight. My gliding(滑翔的) partners had looked at the weather reports of showers and decided to stay at home. People say that you shouldn’t fly by yourself, but on that day I felt the urge to go flying and so headed for my favorite gliding site.
I had the mountain ridge to myself. After a smooth lift-off, I floated stably in the breeze, feeling at peace with myself and the world. I looked across the valley to Bedford and a moment later saw the town disappear in a band of snow that was moving towards me.
The breeze remained strong enough for flying and I knew that as long as the visibility was good, it was OK for me to stay in the air. The snow moved in and swirled around me. It was a light dry snow. The day was already very quiet but, somehow, the light snow made it even more silent. I felt like a snowflake.
Two bald eagles joined me. They didn’t pay me any attention and spent a few minutes flying around the ridge before disappearing. I flew through another band of snow. I had been flying for about 45 minutes when I next looked across the valley. I could see there were more bands of snow to come and the breeze was dying too.
It was time to go home, get in a hot bath and warm up. I couldn’t wait to tell my gliding partners that they had missed out on a perfect flight.
32. Why did the author’s gliding partners refuse to fly on that day?
A. They preferred to fly alone
B. The weather did not permit
C. They did not like winter flights
D. The equipment was not adequate
33. After take-off, the author felt_____.
A. nervous B. calm C. excited D. surprised
34. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?
A. The bald eagle can cause damage to the author’s flight
B. The author will land and go home after the snow stops
C. Brand of snow will be a great threat to the author’s flight
D. The author will hesitate to share his experience with his partners
35. What could be the best title for the article?
A. The First Flight Alone
B. A Narrow-Escape Flight
C. One Never-Again Flight
D. An Impressive Winter Flight

  Supermarkets are trying out new computers that make shopping carts more intelligent . They will help shoppers find cups or toilet soap, and keep a record of the bill. 
     The touch-screen devices are on show at the Food Marketing Institute's exhibition here this week, "These devices are able to create value and get you around the store quicker," said Michael Alexander, manager of Springboard Retail Networks Inc., which makes a smart cart computer called the Concierge. 
     Canadian stores will test the Concierge in July. A similar device, IBM's “Shopping Buddy”, has recently been test-marketed at Stop & Shop stores in Massachusetts. 
     Neither device tells you how many fat grams or calories are in your cart, but they will flash you with items on sale. The idea is to make it easier for people to buy, not to have second thoughts that maybe you should put something back on the shelf. 
     “The whole model is driven by advertisers’ need to get in front of shoppers,” said Alexander. “They're not watching 30-second TV ads anymore." 
     People can use a home computer to make their shopping lists. Once at the store, a shopper can use a preferred customer card to start a system that will organize the trip around the store. If you’re looking for toothpicks, you type in the word or pick it from a list, and a map will appear on the screen showing where you are and where you can find them. 
     The device also keeps a record of what you buy. When you're finished, the device figures out your bill. Then you go to the checker or place your card into a self-checkout stand and pay. 
     The new computerized shopping assistants don't come cheap. The Buddy devices will cost the average store about $160,000, and the Concierge will cost stores about $500 for each device.
36. The underlined word “They” （Paragraph 1） refers to____．
     A. supermarkets        B. shop assistants   
C. shopping carts       D. shop managers
37. Which of the following is the correct order of shopping with the computerized shopping carts?
     a. Start the system． B. Make a shopping list．
     c. Find the things you want．D. Go to a self-checkout stand．
     A. abdc              B. bacd                 
C. acbd                D. bcad
38.We can learn from the last paragraph that ______.
A. intelligent shopping carts cost a large sum of money 
B. the Concierge is cheaper than the Buddy devices 
C. shop assistants with computer knowledge are well paid 
D. average stores prefer the Concierge to the Buddy devices
39. What might be the most suitable title for the text?
     A. New age for supermarkets
     B. Concierge and Shopping Buddy
     C. New computers make shopping carts smarter
     D. Touch-screen devices make shopping enjoyable
C
If you’re familiar with the life of Mark Twain, you’ll know that by 1900, he was fed up with Teddy Roosevelt. “Far and away the worst president we’ve ever had,” he said as he objected the presidents’ venture in the Philippines. For his part, Roosevelt came to ignore the great American humorist, once saying to a small group of friends he’d like to skin Mark Twain alive.
Back when the two men first met in the 1880s, they had admired each other. Roosevelt loved Twain’s writings and Twain said he’d never shaken Roosevelt’s hand without feeling an electric charge move up his arm. But their background and principles were already leading them in different directions.
Where those differences came from, and how they shaped the lives, is the focus of Philip McFarland’s “Mark Twain and the Colonel: Samuel L. Clemens, Theodore Roosevelt, and the Arrival of a New Century”.
These men took vastly different routes to success. For Twain, it was a wandering path for a small-town boy who became a steamboat pilot, journalist, and finally world-famous humorist. For Theodore Roosevelt the journey was much quicker. In just 43 years, this weak child of money and privilege became a reform-minded politician and, to everyone’s surprise, president.
To a great degree, Twain kept the opinion of a man of the 19th century, while Roosevelt saw a future in which America would become a global power, and that’s where the trouble lay. But the bitterness between the two wasn’t caused only by their differences. As McFarland points out, “There were enough similarities between Roosevelt and Clemens to cause friction(摩擦) anyway. Both were writers and public performers, possessed of restless, youthful temperaments(脾气).”
Their lives, and their opinion couldn’t differ too much because they were, finally, shaped by the same great forces in American society. McFarland seems to weave them all together. Overall, it’s a highly enlightening book that offers you two biographies and a vast picture of American society at the beginning of its modern age.
40. The first paragraph mainly tells us ________.
A. Twain did not like Roosevelt
B. Roosevelt hated Twain too much
C. Twain and Roosevelt had conflicts
D. Twain was a great American humorist
41. What led to the conflict between Twain and Roosevelt?
A. Their writings. B. Their lifestyles.
C. Their own families. D. Their background.
42. During his childhood, Teddy Roosevelt______.
A. had a poor life
B. lived with wealth and power
C. had a dream of being a president
D. admired Mark Twain
43. What is the purpose of the text?
A. To introduce Mark Twain’s novels.
B. To show Mark Twain’s hardship.
C. To act as McFarland’s book review.
D. To raise Roosevelt’s leading abilities.

The Four-step Approaches to Managing Anger
