21、   One afternoon I visited an art museum while waiting for my husband to finish a business meeting. I was looking forward to a quiet view of the art works. A young couple viewing the paintings ahead of me chatted nonstop between themselves. I watched them a moment and found the wife was doing all the talk. I admired (赞赏) the husband for putting up with her continuous talk. Because of their noise, I moved on.

I met with them many times as I moved through the different rooms of art. Each time I heard her continuous talk, I moved away quickly. I was standing at the counter of the museum gift shop when the couple came near to the exit. Before they left, the man reached into his pocket and pulled out a white thing. He extended (展开) it into a long stick and then tapped (敲打) his way into the coatroom to get his wife’s jacket.

“He’s a brave man.” The salesman at the counter said, “Most of us would give up if we were blind at such a young age. But he said his life wouldn’t change during his recovery (恢复). So, as before, he and his wife come in when there’s a new art show.” “But how does he enjoy the art?” I asked, “He can’t see.” “Can’t see? You’re wrong. He sees a lot. More than you or I do.” The clerk said, “His wife describes each painting so he can see it in his head.”

I learned something from the couple that day. I saw a young wife describing paintings to a person without sight (视力) and a husband who would not allow blindness to change his life. And I saw the love shared by two people as I watched this couple walk away hand in hand.

【1】“…I moved away quickly.” in Paragraph 2 shows that the writer ________.

A.was in the hope of visiting more rooms B.was in a hurry to buy some gifts

C.was tired of the nonstop talking D.was not interested in the art show

A.was not born blind B.couldn’t stand (忍受) his wife

C.knew nothing about art D.completely depended on (完全依靠) his wife

【3】The passage is mainly about ________.

A.the importance of art B.good manners in public

C.love of a husband D.love between a couple

24、Frank Woolworth was born in Rodman, New York, in 1852. His family were very poor farmers, and there was never enough to eat. Frank decided he did not want to be a farmer. He took a short business course, and went to work as a salesman（销售员）in a large city.

Woolworth realized he had a natural skill for showing goods to attract（吸引）people’s interest, but he soon learned something more important. One day his boss told him to sell some odds and ends（小商品）for as much as he could get. Frank put all these things on one table with a sign which said “FIVE CENTS EACH”. People fought and pushed to buy the things and the table was soon cleared. Soon afterwards, Woolworth opened his own store, selling goods at five and ten cents. But he had another lesson to learn before he became successful. That is, if you want to make money by selling low-price goods, you have to buy them in large numbers directly from the factories. Once, for example, Woolworth went to Germany and placed an order for knives. The order was so large that the factory had to keep running 24 hours a day for a whole year. In this way, the price of the knives was cut down by half.

By 1919, Woolworth had had over 1,000 stores in the USA and Canada, and opened his first store in London. He made many millions and his name became famous around the world. He always ran his business according to strict rules, of which the most important was “THE CUSTOMER（顾客）IS ALWAYS RIGHT”.

【1】Frank took a short business course to ________.

A．make more money for his family

B．learn something from a salesman

C．get away from the farm

D．get enough to eat

【2】Frank sold the odds and ends quickly because ________.

A．he knew how to get people to buy his goods

B．he cut down the price by half

C．he had put the goods on a table in a very nice way

D．the sign he put on the table was well designed

【3】The price of the knives was cut down by half because ________.

A．the factory workers worked 24 hours a day

B．knives were ordered in large numbers directly from the factory

C．labour（劳动力）was cheap in Germany

D．the knives were from only one factory

【4】What makes Woolworth a world-famous man?

A．His business skills and his wealth（财富）.

B．The low price of the goods he sold.

C．His trip to Germany and his huge order of knives.

D．His natural skill for showing things.

【5】The sentence “THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT” tells us that ________.

A．whenever there is a quarrel between the customer and the salesman, the customer is always right

B．if you want to succeed, the rule is the only way

C．stores must always follow the customer’s orders if they want to make more money

D．stores should do their best to meet the customer’s needs if they want to be successful
