9、到回复，要写信给这家公司、商店或组织的总经 理。务必将你自己写的信以及你收到的任何来信备份。如果你的投诉是合理的， 店主可能会提出41退换或修理有问题的物品。你可能会觉得这是个42很吸引人的解决方法。在某些情况下，你或许有权拒绝接受这件商品并要求退款，但这只有在你几乎没用过这件商品 并即时采取行动的情况下才可以。即使你无法拒绝这件商品，你或许也能拿回些退款。而且，如果你遭受了一些43特殊的损失，例如，如果一台新洗衣机把你的衣服弄破了，你也许会获得损失的赔偿。如果店主给你提供信用证，让你在同样的商店里购买商品 时使用，而你更希望他给你钱，那么你就该说出来。如果你接受了信用证，请记住，你之后 就不

10、能索要退款了。如果店主拒绝给你钱，你可以在接受信用证前向公民咨询局征求 44意见。在一些情况下，店主不需要给你退款一一比如，因为你不喜欢某件商品或这件商品不适合你，而他也给你换了货的话，在这些45情况下，他不需要收回商品并退款。(二)Directions: In this sect ion, there is a passage with ten bla nks.

19、代妇女的辅助设备往往会产生相反的效果，因为它们只是改变了劳动的性质而并没有消除劳动。机器有某种新颖的价值，就像成年人的玩具一样。把衣服放进洗衣机36确实可以轻松些，但所节省出的时间37总量却实在没有太多：机器需要有人看着，先得把衣服认真分好类。用手把污渍38洗掉，还得按按钮、换水，然后取出衣物、晾干、熨平。把所有衣服打包送到39洗衣房反而更加省事，而且也未必更贵，因为不需要任何资本投资。同样.如果你真的想节约时间，你就不会用电动搅拌机来做蛋糕，而是去商店里买。 如果你将女性杂志所培育出来的居家女性形象与那些给它们提供经费的期刊、广告里所宣传的商品相比较的话，你就会意识到树立形象在商业上是多么有

41、有独创性。这些语言在语音模式或40语法结构上通常能完全满足语言的所有需求，并不落后于我们西方的语言，比我们落后的只是41反映这些说话者所知物体及活动的词汇。然而，即使是在这方面，也有两点值得一提：1.所有语言都42拥有拓展词汇的机制，要么是通过将现存词汇组合在一起来拓展，要么是通过从其他语言中借入一些词并将其改造以适应自身体系来实现。2.在这些43 “落后的”语言中，尽管那些需要名字及区分的物体及活动与我们不同，它们却都经常是多得出奇、复杂得出奇。对于语言的研究反过来让人们对人类学家的断言一一所有的文化都该被45独立看待，而不该带着等级观念去看待44有了新的认识。(五)2016年专四专八改革，
