26、   Playing games, singing carols (圣诞颂歌) and getting dressed in your best for Christmas lunch are British festive traditions that need to be saved for future generations, a study has found.

The survey of 2,000 people found the festive pleasure that people believe is most in need of saving is playing games as a family, with 33% of those surveyed giving it the nod. Carol singing is close behind on 31%, with making paper chains to decorate the home on 28%.

Popular pursuits also listed as being in need of saving are making Christmas cake, putting decorations up on Christmas Eve, making home-made pies and writing a letter to Santa. The study also found that 64% of British families celebrate with their own family-specific traditions, such as leaving the tree decoration to the children, and 62% of people said the most important element in having a good Christmas is spending time with family.

Dr. Martin Johns from Swansea University, said: “Wearing your ‘best’ clothes and giving fruit and nuts in stockings both have their origins before the Second World War. However, the pre-war tradition of putting a lucky piece of coal in children’s stockings has disappeared.”

Many Christmas traditions are imports from America, but Christmas cards are one that Britain gave to the world. The first Christmas card is widely claimed to date back to 1843, the same year as A Christmas Carol was published by Dickens, but they were actually on sale by the end of the 1820s. The Victorians saw them as luxurious items and bought them individually, choosing specific designs for each friend and relative. Up until the 1960s, cards were delivered on Christmas morning, adding to the specialness of receiving one.

【1】The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refers to “________”.

A．playing games

B．festive pleasure

C．the survey

D．the festival

【2】What can we infer from the passage?

A．Festive traditions are the same in different families.

B．Christmas time is a family time for many people.

C．Making paper chains is most in need of saving.

D．People don’t make Christmas cake any more.

【3】The tradition of putting a coal in the stocking ________.

A．is replaced by giving fruit and nuts

B．appeared during the World War II

C．should be put on the saving list

D．is no longer observed today

【4】According to the last paragraph, Christmas cards ________.

A．were received before Christmas

B．were regarded as special gifts

C．were brought from America

D．were invented in 1843

27、Clothes were once used until they fell apart. Not today. In high-income countries in particular, clothing and footwear are increasingly frequently bought, thrown away and replaced with new fashions, which are themselves soon thrown away and replaced.

The so-called ‘Fast fashion’ is having a surprising environmental impact. ‘Take water. The fashion industry, one of the world’s largest users of water, consumes anywhere from 20 trillion to 200 trillion litres every year. ‘Then there are microplastics. Plastic fibres are released when we wash polyester (聚酯纤维) and other polymer-based textiles, and make up between 20% and 35% of themicro plastics choking the oceans. Added to this are specific chemicals, such as those used to make fabrics stain resistant and the pesticides required to protect crops such as cotton.

Change is badly needed, but will require the fashion industry to work harder to embrace more of what is known as the circular economy. That will involve at least two things: refocusing on making things that last, and so encouraging reuse; and more rapidly expanding the technologies for sustainable manufacturing processes, especially recycling. There’s a big role for research--both academic and industrial--in achieving these and other ambitions.

Researchers could begin by helping to provide more accurate estimates of water use. There is also work to be done on improving and expanding textiles recycling. Undoubtedly, used textiles go to landfill in part because there are relatively few systems that collect, recycle and reuse materials. Such recycling requires the manual separation of fibres, as well as buttons and zips. Different fibres are not easy to identify by eye, and overall such manual processes are time-consuming. Machinery is being developed that can help. Technologies also exist to recycle used fibres chemically and to create high -quality fibres that can be reused in clothing. But these are nowhere near the scale needed.

Another challenge for researchers is to work out how to get consumers and manufacturers to change their behaviour. Other research questions include finding ways to encourage people to purchase long lasting goods; exploring how to satisfy desires for something new while reducing environmental impact; and understanding why certain measures can be successfully scaled up whereas others fail.

【1】Why does the author mention “water”, “microplastics” and “chemicals” in Paragraph 2?

A．To list examples.

B．To prove a point.

C．To provide an idea.

D．To give a definition.

【2】Which of the following goes against the concept of “circular economy”?

A．Efforts are made to lengthen the lifespan of textiles.

B．Worn-out clothes are used as dishcloths and oil rags.

C．High-quality fibres are created to be reused in clothing.

D．Fashion industry is encouraged to release new lines more often.

【3】What is the right thing for the fashion industry researchers to do?

A．To make sure that all of the used textiles go to landfill.

B．To separate fibres, as well as buttons and zips manually.

C．To improve and expand textile recycling to a larger extent.

D．To encourage consumers to satisfy their desires for fashion.

【4】Which of the following is a suitable title for the text ?

A．Say no to the so-called fast fashion

B．Address the challenges for researchers

C．Embrace more of the circular economy

D．Cut fast fashion’s environmental impact

28、   You are given many opportunities in life to choose to be a victim or creator. When you choose to be a victim, the world is a cold and difficult place.“They” did things to you which caused all of your pain and suffering.“They” are wrong and bad, and life is terrible as long as “they” are around.Or you may blame yourself for all your problems, thus internalizing(内化)your victimization.The truth is, your life is likely to stay that way as long as you feel a need to blame yourself or others.

Those who choose to be creators look at life quite differently.They know there are individuals who might like to control their lives, but they don't let this get in the way.They know they have their weaknesses, yet they don't blame themselves when they fail.Whatever happens, they have choice in the matter.They believe their dance with each sacred(神圣的)moment of life is a gift and that storms are a natural part of life which can bring the rain needed for emotional and spiritual growth.

Victims and creators live in the same physical world and deal with many of the same physical realities, yet their experience of life is worlds apart.Victims relish(沉溺)in anger, guilt, and other emotions that cause others--and even themselves---to feel like victims, too.Creators consciously choose love, inspiration, and other qualities which inspire not only themselves, but al1around them.Both victims and creators always have choice to determine the direction of their lives.

In reality, all of us play the victim or the creator at various points in our lives.One person, on losing a job or a special relationship, may feel as if it is the end of the world and sink into terrible suffering for months, years, or even a lifetime.Another with the same experience may choose to first experience the grief, then accept the loss and soon move on to be a powerful creative force in his life.

In every moment and every circumstance, you can choose to have fuller, richer life by setting a clear intention to transform the victim within, and by inviting into your life the powerful creator that you are.

【1】What does the word “they” in Paragraph 1 probably refer to?

A.People and things around you. B.Opportunities and problems.

C.Creators and their choices. D.Victims and their sufferings.

【2】According to Paragraph 2, creators__________.

A.seem willing to experience failures in life B.possess the ability to predict future life

C.handle ups and downs of life wisely D.have potential to create something new

【3】What is the author's purpose in writing this passage?

A.To define victims and creators.

B.To evaluate victims against creators.

C.To explain the relationship between victims and creators.

D.To suggest the transformation from victims to creators.

【4】The examples mentioned in Paragraph 4 show that_________.

A.strong attachment to sufferings in life pulls people into victims.

B.people need family support to deal with challengers in life.

C.it takes creators quite a long time to get rid of their pains.

D.one's experiences determine his attitude toward life.

Mr. Selfridge, the Wisconsin-born retailer who left school at 14, rose to become a partner in Marshall Field's, Chicago. 【1】 in 1852, it was one of the first and most ambitious US department stores. Mr. Selfridge had done well with Marshall Field's. He liked to say, 'The customer is always right, ' which made the Chicago store popular. And he is believed to have 【2】 the phrase 'Only Shopping Days until Christmas'.

When he visited London on holiday in 1906, he was surprised to find most of the city's department stores were no 【3】 for their American and Parisian competitors. This led Selfridge to leave the US and establish Selfridges - a department store named after him at the west end of London's Oxford Street. In Oxford Street, Selfridge's design team 【4】 an ambitious classical palace building with a wall of plate glass windows.

Opened in 1909, Selfridges 【5】 customers a hundred departments along with restaurants, a roof garden, reading and writing rooms, reception areas for foreign visitors, a first 【6】 room and most importantly, a small army of knowledgeable floor-walking assistants who served as guides as well as being【7】 instructed in the art of making a sale.

Mr. Selfridge did much to make the department store a destination rather than just a big and 【8】 stocked city shop. It became a place to meet and for ladies to lunch. Mr. Selfridge later introduced the department store as a key 【9】 of the 20th century culture, and Chaplin 【10】 the growing trend for shopping in the -department store in his film The Floorwalker.

32、阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

It was my first job, working as a temporary sales girl during the Christmas rush at Richardson’s, the finest jewelry store in our city.

The job was very important to me. Dad had passed away and Mother and I did not have enough to live on in those hard Depression years. I worked in the diamond department. My duties were to arrange the goods, keep them clean, and run errands (跑腿). It was interesting work that I enjoyed thoroughly.

As Christmas drew near, the days became more rushed, but also more exciting. One afternoon, Miss Allan, the head of the department, asked me to get her the diamond ring from the end showcase. I hurried back, with the ring in my hand when I noticed a man on the other side of the row of showcases. He was tall and in his early thirties. But it was the expression on his face that stopped me. He looked bitter, angry and confused. From his well-cut but worn-out suit, I could tell he was one of thousands trained for jobs they could no longer find. He gazed at the beautiful stones with the despair of a man whose right to earn them had been taken away. I had a sudden feeling of sympathy. But I had other things on my mind and soon forgot about him.

A few minutes later Miss Allan called for me again. This time for the clip (夹子) that went with the ring. The clip was at the very front of the window. I got it. But just as I was backing out, my sleeve caught on the corner of a tray (盘子) of diamonds. The tray started to fall, and six magnificent diamond rings rolled across the floor.

Down on my knees, I collected five rings with the greatest speed and put them in the tray. But I couldn’t find the sixth! I thought it must have slipped through the tiny opening between the showcase and the window. I ran around the counter and looked down. It wasn’t there. Just then, out of the corner of my eyes I saw the tall man moving quietly toward the door of the shop, a few yards away. At that moment I knew that he had the ring. He had been standing at the only spot to which it could have rolled. I reached him just as he got to the door.
