25、A.根据以下内容，选择最恰当的答案

Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping because he needs something. His purpose is settled and decided in advance. He knows what he wants, and his objective is to find it and buy it; the price is a secondary consideration. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it in stock, the salesman promptly produces it, and the business of trying it on follows at once. All being well, the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes, with hardly any chat and to everyone’s satisfaction.

For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants, or does not have exactly what he wants. In that case the salesman, as the name implies, tries to sell the customer something else, he offers the nearest he can to the article required. No good salesman brings out such a substitute（代用品）impolitely; he does so with skill: “I know this jacket is not the style you want, sir, but would you like to try it for size? It happens to be the colour you mentioned.” Few men have patience with this treatment, and the usual response is: “This is the right colour and may be the right size, but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on.”

Now how does a woman go about buying clothes? In almost every respect she does so in the opposite way. Her shopping is not often based on need. She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is only “having a look round”. She is always open to persuasion; indeed she sets great shop by what the saleswoman tells her, even by what companions tell her. She will try on any number of things. uppermost（最重要的）in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Contrary to a lot of jokes, most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes. They are always on the lockout（停工；停止）for the unexpected bargain. Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one rail to another to and fro（来回地；往复）, often retracing （折返）her stops, before selecting the dresses she wants to try on. It is a laborious（艰苦的）process, but apparently an enjoyable one. Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.

【1】The passage mainly talks about ________.

A.differences between men and women shoppers

B.a man goes shopping because he needs something

C.how women go about buying clothes

D.women are better at shopping than men

【2】The underlined sentence “the price is a secondary consideration” in the first paragraph means when a man is shopping ________.

A.he buys good quality things, so long as they are not too dear

B.he buys whatever he likes without considering its value

C.he does not mind how much he has to pay for the right things

D.he often buys things without giving the matter proper thought

【3】What does the underlined word “promptly” mean?

A.Immediately. B.Happily. C.Luckily. D.Surprisingly.

【4】What does a man do when he cannot get exactly what he wants?

A.He buys a similar thing because of the colour he wants.

B.He usually does not buy anything.

C.At least two of his requirements must bu met before he buys.

D.So long as the style is right, he buys the thing.

【5】What happens if a woman buys clothes in a shop?

A.She tries on the dress, and if it fits her, she will finish the purchase.

B.She never knows exactly what she wants, and often buys nothing.

C.She often has no definite idea of what she really wants and often buys a lot more than her expectation.

D.She will retrace among the rails and try to find the dress that everyone thinks suits her.

【6】What is the most obvious difference between men and women shoppers?

A.Men do not try clothes on in a shop while women do.

B.Women bargain（讨价还价）for their clothes, but men do not.

C.The time they take over buying clothes.

D.Men go shopping based on need, but women never.

27、   Last week, my ten-year-old daughter lay comfortably on the sofa, listening to music. Suddenly, she spoke in a low mumble, as if to herself, “How about creating heart-shaped cards with beautiful messages and then hang them on everyone’s mailbox around the community?” Her brothers heard what she said. They also got really excited about the idea and their project started.

Every day they created a few cards—they cut the cards into heart shapes, wrote kind messages and wishes and then decorated them. They wrote messages like—“You’re loved. Give our best wishes to your family. We wish you all the happiness and love. Good luck to you. It’s been a great pleasure to have you with us. We are all together. Thank you for being you. Thank you for your kindness.” And  many more…

Within a week, they had more than 50 cards ready to be delivered. Every afternoon, the kids were really excited to work on their project for a few hours. How carefully and seriously they did! And they were very satisfied with their project. One day while they were working on the cards, my daughter said, “It makes me very happy and very energetic when I do this.”

Finally, this Friday, the kids went around the community on their bicycles and hung the hearts on everyone’s mailbox around the community. For them, it was a joyful day full of laughter, excitement and expectation. They didn’t know how people were going to react but they were just happy doing it. They finished delivering cards by late evening and they didn’t feel tired at all.

However, later that night it rained. Some of the cards probably got wet because of the rain. The kids felt a little sad, but they recovered quickly, saying that they did  their best and had so much fun. And they said they could do it again. They really have beautiful souls (灵魂), with so much love in them.

B．A Loving Community

C．How to Make Beautiful Cards

D．Send Love and Kindness with Cards
