27、ime ago, I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg. I didnt think there would be any difficulty in getting it mended , as there are a whole lot of antique shops near my home . So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception.

28、I was quite wrong. The man wouldnt even look at my chair. The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and, the fourth so I decided that my approach must be wrong. I went into the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the sho

29、pkeeper, “Would you like to buy a chair?” He looked it over carefully and said, “Yes, not a bad chair. How much do you want for it, sir?” “Twenty pounds,” I said. “OK,” he said, “Ill give you twenty pounds.” “Its got a slightly broken leg,” I said. “Yes I saw that, its nothing.”Everything was going

30、according to plan and I was getting excited. “What will you do with it?” I asked. “Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done.” “Ill buy it,” I said. “What do you mean? Youve just sold it to me,” he said. “Yes, I know but Ive changed my mind. Im sorry. Ill give you twenty-seven pounds for i

31、t.” “You must be crazy,” he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped. “I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair.” “Youre right,” I said. “And what would you have done if I had walked in and said, Would you mend this chair for me?” “I wouldnt have agreed to do it,” he said. “We dont do re

32、pairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But Ill mend this for you, shall we say for a five?” He was a very nice man and was greatly amused by the whole thing.56.

34、C. £20D. £2759. From the text, we can learn that the writer was .A. smart B. careful C. honest D. funnyBHe was 11 years old and went fishing every chance he got from the dock at his familys cabin on an island in the middle of a New Hampshire lake. On the day before the bass season opened,

35、he and his father were fishing early in the evening, catching sunfish and perch (鲈鱼) with worms. Then he tied on a small silver lure（鱼饵）and practiced casting. The lure struck the water and caused colored ripples in the sunset, then silver ripples as the moon rose over the lake.When his pea-pole doub

36、led over, he knew something huge was on the other end. His father watched with admiration as the boy skillfully worked the fish alongside the dock.Finally, he very gingerly lifted the exhausted fish from the water. It was the largest one he had ever seen, but it was a bass. The boy and his father lo

37、oked at the handsome fish, gills playing back and forth in the moonlight. The father lit a match and looked at his watch. It was 10 P.M.- two hours before the season opened. He looked at the fish, then at the boy.“Youll have to put it back, son,” he said.“Dad!” cried the boy.“There will be other fis

38、h,” said his father.“Not as big as this one,” cried the boy.He looked around the lake. No other fishermen or boats were anywhere around in the moonlight. He looked again at his father. Even though no one had seen them, nor could anyone ever know what time he caught the fish, the boy could tell by th

39、e clarity of his fathers voice that the decision was not negotiable. He slowly worked the hook out of the lip of the huge bass and lowered it into the black water.The creature swished its powerful body and disappeared. The boy suspected that he would never again see such a great fish.That was 34 yea

40、rs ago. Today, the boy is a successful architect in New York City. His fathers cabin is still there on the island in the middle of the lake. He takes his own son and daughters fishing from the same dock.And he was right. He has never again caught such a magnificent fish as the one he landed that nig

41、ht long ago. But he does see that same fish-again and again-every time he comes up against a question of ethics (道德规范).60. Why did the father ask his son to put the perch back? A. Because the father disliked the perch. B. Because the father was afraid of being fined C. Because the ethics must be obe

42、yed.D. Because the son was more experienced in fishing than his father.61. When does the architect (the fathers son) think of that perch put back?A.

44、panese, Chinese and Koreans.For many, even a small amount of alcohol can cause unpleasant effects. Most commonly, their face, neck and sometimes their whole body turn red. People might also feel uncomfortable and sick to their stomach. They might experience a burning sensation, increased heart rate,

45、 shortness of breath and headaches.The cause is a genetic difference that they are born with called an ALDH2 deficiency (缺乏). It prevents their bodies from treating alcohol the way other people do. But the effects might be more serious than just a red face. Researchers warn of a link between this co

46、ndition and an increased risk of cancer of the esophagus (食道) from drinking alcohol.The more alcohol people with this deficiency drink, the greater their risk is. In Japan and South Korea, for example, many people have the deficiency but still drink heavily. Researchers found that these drinkers dev

47、elop a form of esophageal cancer six to ten times more often than those without the deficiency.Esophageal cancer is one of the deadliest cancers. It can be treated when found early, but once it grows the chances of survival drop sharply. The researchers estimate that at least five hundred forty mill

48、ion people have the deficiency, about eight percent of the worlds population.Philip Brooks is a researcher at the National Institute in the United States. He says it is important to educate people about the link between the alcohol flushing effect and esophageal cancer. He says doctors should ask Ea

49、st Asian patients about their experiences with facial flushing after drinking alcohol. Those with a history of it should be advised to limit their alcohol use. They should also be warned that cigarette smoking works with the alcohol in a way that further increases the risk of esophageal cancer.63. T

53、e competition is going on in all areas and at all levels. This is exciting. Yet, on the other hand, competition breeze a pragmatic（实用主义） attitude. People choose to learn things that are useful, and do things that are profitable. Todays college education is also affected by this general sense of util

54、itarianism.（功利主义）Many college students choose business nor computing programming as their majors convinced that these professions are where the big money is. It is not unusual to see the college students taking a part time job as a warming up for the real battle. I often see my friends taking GRE te

55、sts, working on English or computer certificates and taking the driving lessons to get a license. Well, I have nothing against being practical. As the competition in the job market gets more and more intense, students do have reasons to be practical. However, we should never forget that college education is much more than skill training. Just imagine, if your utilitarianism is prevails on campus, living no space for the cultivation（培养） of students' minds, or nurturing of their
