Passage Two
In the mid-1950s, I was a somewhat bored early-adolescent male student who believed that One day, this approach threw me into embarrassment
In Mrs. Totten's eighth-grade math class at Central Avenue School in Anderson, Indiana, we were learning to add and subtract decimals （小数）.
Our teacher typically assigned daily homework, which would be recited in class the following day. On most days, our grades were based on our oral answer to homework questions.
Mrs. Totten usually walked up and down the rows of desks requesting answers from student after student in the order the questions had apeared on our homework sheets. She would start either at the front or the back of the classroom and work toward the other end.
Since I was seated near the middle of about 35 students, it was easy to figure out which questions I might have to answer. This particular time, I had completed my usual two or three problems according to my calculations.
What I failed to expect was that several students were absent, which threw off my estimate. As Mrs. Totten made her way from the beginning of the class，I desperately tried to determine which math problem I would get. I tried to work it out before she got to me, but I had brain freeze and couldn't function.
When Mrs. Totten reached my desk，she asked what answer I'd got for problem No. 14. “I?I didn't get anything,” I answered，and my face felt warm.
“Correct,” she said.
7
It turned out that the correct answer was zero.
What did I learn that day? First, always do all your homework. Second, in real life it isn't always what you say but how you say it that matters. Third，I would never make it as a mathematician.
If I could choose one school day that taught me the most, it would be that one.
40. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1 indicate?
A. It is wise to value one's time.
B. It is important to make an effort
C. It is right to stick to one's belief.
D. It is enough to do the necessary.

答案：C
42. The author could work out which questions to answer since the teacher always _______.
A. asked questions in a regular way
B. walked up and down when asking questions
C. chose two or three questions for the students
D. requested her students to finish their usual questions
答案：A
43. The author failed to get the questions he had expected because _______.
A. the class didn't begin as usual
B. several students didn't come to school
C. he didn't try hard to make his estimate
D. Mrs. Totten didn't start from the back of the class
答案：B
Passage Three
My formula for staying young is simple: concentrate on the part of you that's young and growing—your brain. Keep your mind awake and you'll stay young all over. These are exciting times. Take an interest in the world around you, and make a point of learning at least one new thing every day.
Regardless of your age, it's not too late to make your life more interesting. I know a housewife with no previous knowledge who made herself into an outstanding industrial designer; I know a retired electrical engineer who has become a highly paid ceramic artist.
Get over the notion that you are ever too old to go back to school. I know a man who entered medical college at 70. He got his degree with honors and became an eminent physician. Another man went to law school 71 and is now an active lawyer.
In spite of years, staying young is easy for those who live in the future. You can do it if you care enough to try. Keep your mind awake and active; that's the only youth elixir guaranteed to work.
44. The statement that our brain remains young and growing regardless of age is ________.
8
A. an impossibility
B. a scientific fact
C. a supposition
D. a ridiculous conclusion
答案：B
45. It is wrong to ________.
A. think oneself too old to go back to school
B. keep one's mind awake
C. try to stay young
D. get one's degree with honors
答案：A
46. The passage states that a man who entered college at 70 became ________.
A. an active lawyer
B. an electric engineer
C. a distinguished doctor
D. a highly paid ceramic artist
答案：C
47. The only youth elixir is to ________.
A. go back to school
B. forget one's own age
C. keep in touch with young people
D. keep one's mind awake and active
答案：D

Passage Five
Store Scent（香味）
What is the first thing you notice when you walk into a shop? The products displayed（展示） at the entrance? Or the soft background music?
But have you ever noticed the smell? Unless it is bad, the answer is likely to be no. but while a shop's scent may not be outstanding compared with sights and sounds, it is certainly there. And it is proving be an increasingly powerful tool in encouraging people to purchase.
10
A brand store has become famous for its distinctive scent which floats through the fairly dark hall and out to the entrance, via scent machines. A smell may be attractive but it may not just be used for freshening air. One sports goods company once reported that when it first introduced scent into its stores, customers' intention to purchase increased by 80 percent.
When it comes to the best shopping streets in pairs, scent is just as important to a brand's success as the quality of its window displays and goods on sale. That is mainly because shopping is a very different experience to what it used to be.
Some years ago, the focus for brand name shopping was on a few people with sales assistants' disproving attitude and don't-touch-what-you-can't-afford displays. Now the rise of electronic commerce（e-commerce）has opened up famous brands to a wider audience. But while e-shops can use sights and sounds, only bricks-and-mortar stores（实体店）can offer a full experience from the minute customers step through the door to the moment they leave. Another brand store seeks to be much more than a shop, but rather a destination. And scent is just one way to achieve this.
Now, a famous store uses complex man-made smell to make sure that the soft scent of baby powder floats through the kid department, and coconut scent in the swimsuit section. A department store has even opened a new lab, inviting customers on a journey into the store's windows to smell books, pots and drawers, in search of their perfect scent.
52. According to the passage, what is an increasingly powerful tool in the success of some brand stores?
A. Friendly assistants
B. Unique scents
C. Soft background music
D. Attractive window display
答案：B
53. E-shops are mentioned in the passage to_____
A. show the advantage of bricks-and-mortar stores

C. a place where customers love to go
D. a target that a store expects to meet
