A few weeks after my first wife, Georgia, was called to heaven, I was cooking dinner for my son and myself. For a 11 I had decided on frozen peas. As I was cutting open the bag, it 12 from my hand and crashed to the floor. The peas, like marbles, 13 everywhere. I tried to use a broom, 14 with each sweep they just rolled across the kitchen．
For the next week, every time I was in the 15 , I found a pea---in a corner, or behind a table leg. They kept 16 . Eight months later I pulled out the refrigerator to clean behind it, and 17 12 frozen peas hidden underneath．

The life you know can break apart at any time. But you’ll have to 29 , and how fast you collect your peas depends on you. Will you keep scattering them around with a broom, 30 will you pick them up one by one and put your life back together?

A
Goldie's Secret
She turned up at the doorstep of my house in Cornwall. No way could I have sent her away. No way, not me anyway. Maybe someone had kicked her out of their car the night before. "We're moving house. '; "No space for her any more with the baby coming. " "We never really wanted her, but what could we have done? She was a present. " People find all sorts of excuses for abandoning an animal. And she was one of the most beautiful dogs I had ever seen.
I called her Goldie. If I had known what was going to happen I would have given her a more creative name. She was so unsettled during those first few days. She hardly ate anything and had such an air of sadness about her. There was nothing I could do to make her happy, it seemed. Heaven knows what had happened to her at her previous owner's. But eventually at the end of the first week she calmed down. Always by my side, whether we were out on one of our long walks or sitting by the fire.
That's why it was such a shock when she pulled away from me one day when we were out for a walk. We were a long way from home, when she started barking and getting very restless. Eventually I couldn't hold her any longer and she raced off down the road towards a farmhouse in the distance as fast as she could.
By the time I reached the farm I was very tired and upset with Goldie. But when I saw her licking (舔) the four puppies (幼犬) I started to feel sympathy towards them. "We didn't know what had happened to her," said the woman at the door. "I took her for a walk one day, soon after the puppies were born, and she just disappeared. " "She must have tried to come back to them and got lost," added a boy from behind her.
I must admit I do miss Goldie, but I've got Nugget now, and she looks just like her mother. And I've learnt a good lesson: not to judge people.
31. How did the author feel about Goldie when Goldie came to the house?
A. Shocked B. Sympathetic C. Annoyed D. Upset.
32. In her first few days at the author's house, Goldie _
A. felt worried B. was angry C. ate a little D. sat by the fire
33. Goldie rushed off to a farmhouse one day because she ________.
A. saw her puppies B. heard familiar barkings
C. wanted to leave the author D. found her way to her old home
34. The passage is organized in order of ________ .
A. time B. effectiveness C. importance D. complexity

B
Competition. It’s a simple word, yet a very complex word that covers many angles when it comes to how gasoline prices are determined. It seems so easy to explain, but don’t let that trick you—it’s incredibly difficult to explain and adequately understand.
Say you’re on a Sunday afternoon drive, and notice a gas station near you charging $3.50. Down the road a few miles, that price could easily be 10 or more cents higher or lower. The question is “how” or “why” is that? Think of it this way Are you more likely to get a better deal on a car if there are two similar car dealers next to each other? Perhaps, because the dealers are too close. Say there is a third similar car dealer miles away. Is he going to be at the same level of competition and sell his cars for the same price as the two dealers next to each other? Likely not. He may charge more or less. Maybe people don't know there are two other dealers down the road. Maybe the dealer is almost outside of the city and the land value isn't as high, so his taxes aren't as high.
These situations do take place at gas stations. And more factors can impact what a station will charge. Timing can greatly impact what price a station charges as well! Many motorists fail to realize that the price a station pays for gasoline changes daily. If one station gets lucky and buys gas on Monday and the cost goes up Tuesday, the station that bought on Monday doesn’t necessarily have to raise prices like the station that bought on Tuesday. Maybe the station that got caught buying for a higher price on Tuesday will pass that higher cost on by raising its gas price.
Perhaps the difference is what brand the station is---branded stations usually pay a slightly higher cost for their gasoline. In return for paying a higher cost, those stations are guaranteed first supply in case of emergency situations. Independent stations don’t pay as much, but aren’t guaranteed supply.
While competition sounds easy to understand, there are always a large number of factors that could influence what one station charges. Keep in mind how many variables there are next time you fill up.
35.What could be the best title for the passage?
A. How Competition Impacts Gas Prices B. Gas Prices Go Up or Down
C. Competition---a Very Complex Word D. We Can’t Stress Enough the Need for Competition
36. The example of car dealers is used to show _________.
A. car prices are determined by car dealers B. location is an important factor in pricing
C. the quality of service matters most D. dealing strategy should be flexible
37. The gas prices of a station always change partly because _________.
A. a gas station always wants to charge more B. the gasoline is in great demand
C. the cost of the gas the station buys varies daily D. gas is in greater need on Monday
38. According to the passage, branded stations _________.
A. spend less money on their gasoline B. have more staff than independent stations
C. charge less for high quality oil D. offer a steady oil supply
C
Glynis Davis:
I first piled on the pounds when I was in the family way and I couldn’t lose them afterwards. Then I joined a slimming club. My target was 140 pounds and I lost 30 pounds in six months. I felt great and people kept saying how good I looked. But Christmas came and I started to slip back into my old eating habits. I told myself I’d lose the weight at slimming classes in the new year…but it didn’t happen. Instead of losing the pounds, I put them on. I’d lost willpower and tried to believe that the old bag of fish and chips didn’t make any difference but the scales don’t lie.
Roz Juma:
To be honest, I never weigh myself any more. I’ve leant to be happy with myself. It seemed to me that I would feel sorry about every spoonful of tasty food that passed my lips. My idea is simple. You shouldn’t be too much thinking about food and dieting. Instead, you should get on with life and stop dreaming of a supper-thin body. This is obviously the size I’m meant to be and, most of all. I’m happy with it.
Lesley Codwin:
I was very happy about winning Young Silmmer of the Year. I’d look in the mirror unable to believe this slim lady was me! That might have been my problem--perhaps from then on I didn’t pay any attention to myself. Winning a national competition makes everything worse, though, because you feel the eyes of the world are fixed upon you. I feel a complete failure because I’ve put on weight again.
Ros Langfod:
Before moving in with my husband Gavin, I’d always been about 110 pounds, but the pleasant housework went straight to my waist and I put on 15 pounds in a year. Every so often I try to go on a diet …I’m really good on a few days, then end up having the children’s leftovers or eating happily chocolate--my weakness. I’d like to be slim, but right now my duty is the children and home. I might take more exercise when my kids are older.

39. What do you think the four women were all talking about?

C. Book in a library.

41. What does the underlined word "scales" possibly mean?
A. The coach in the slimming club.
B. Some tool to measure weight.
C. Glynis Davis’ dear husband.
D. The salesperson in a food shop.
