Dear Mr. King,
Your supermarket chain is excellent in many ways. I enjoy the things you sell, such as the selection of produce (農(nóng)產(chǎn)品) and fresh bakery items. I have been a long time supermarket shopper and hope to continue for many years. I have found, however, that I must make a separate shopping trip to one of your competitors because there are many items your store does not carry. This becomes inconvenient for me, as my time is valuable, and I do not like to make two trips. Your low prices and excellent customer service keep me coming back to your supermarket, but I would be a more satisfied customer if I could find all the items I need in one place.
To tell the truth, I have never been able to purchase nacho (烤干酪辣味玉米片) cheese soup at your store. I can find other flavors (味道) of soup, but your store does not carry nacho cheese soup, a common ingredient (原料) in many of my recipes. In addition, I can only find large wonton wrappers (餛飩皮), while many other stores carry both large and small and offer a more varied selection for their customers. Another example is Regent Brand Chili Seasoning. Though it is not a leading brand, it is still common on the shelves of other grocery stores in this area and is superior in flavor to its competitors.
I sincerely hope to continue a relationship with your store, and I hope that you will consider the possibility of expanding your goods to be more competitive.
Yours truly,
Bob Watson

試題分析：這篇短文是一個(gè)顧客給某個(gè)超市的負(fù)責(zé)人寫的一封信，在信中，作者先說了自己是這個(gè)超市長時(shí)間以來的一個(gè)忠實(shí)的顧客，他很喜歡在這里購物，這家超市在很多方面也做得很好。但是作者還說了自己覺得不滿意的地方，就是這家超市商品的種類不是很齊全，并通過具體的例子來說明這一點(diǎn)。
小題1:推理判斷題。根據(jù)短文第一段中I have been a long time supermarket shopper and hope to continue for many years.可知，Bob Watson說他長時(shí)間以來一直在超市購物，希望以后繼續(xù)在超市購物。由此我們可以知道，喜歡在超市購物的人就是寫信的Bob Watson, 故選B。
小題2:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第一段中的描述可知，Your low prices and excellent customer service keep me coming back to your supermarket，這個(gè)超市物品的價(jià)格比較低，而且對(duì)顧客的服務(wù)很好；但是作者也提到這家超市不能滿足顧客所有的需要，因?yàn)橛行〇|西是它沒有的，所以還需要去別的超市購買。故A和B選項(xiàng)不對(duì)；D選項(xiàng)沒有提到。故選C。
小題3:推理判斷題。根據(jù)短文第二段中的內(nèi)容可知，在這一段里，作者給出了很多例子，這家超市沒有的東西而別的超市里有，在文章中我們還可以明顯看到Another example is這個(gè)詞，所以這一段作者是通過舉例來解釋自己的觀點(diǎn)的。故選A。

It’s fun to receive presents. It also feels good to give to others. So what’s the best way to budget(預(yù)算) your money, shop wisely and spend the least money if possible?
Susan Beacham, from a company that teaches money-management skills to kids, gives us some good advice.
“My first tip is to make a list and check it twice,” says Susan. She suggests that kids talk with their families about whom to include in their gift giving and how much to spend. Start by writing down names. Then put a dollar amount next to each name and add it up. Do you have enough money? If not, make changes. And don’t forget—not everyone needs a store-bought gift. Susan points out that some of the best presents are free. Add to your list the names of people you want to give gifts of “time and talent”.
The best gifts don’t cost a thing. Kids can give “time or talent”, says Susan Beacham. Here are some of her top gift ideas.
·For the elder members of your family, do something for them, such as cleaning houses and washing clothes.
·For a friend, create a work of art, like a poem, a drawing or a necklace.
·For teachers, write a note telling her how special she is to you.
·For the people who live around you, show that you care by volunteering. Find out who needs your help and what you can do. Giving your time to help others may end up being the best gift of all!

Leaving high school, I had to choose a career path—medicine or business—before college started in three months, but I couldn’t decide. Both my uncles suggested I work for a month in a         followed by a month in a hospital before I could know what to do. It seemed like a good idea.

My name is Wang Kun. Ever since middle school, my sister Wang Wei and I have dreamed about taking a great bike trip. Two years ago she bought an expensive mountain bike and then she persuaded me to buy one. Last year, she visited our cousins, Dao Wei and Yu Hang at their college in Kunming. They are Dai(傣族人) and grew up in western Yunnan Province near the Lancang River, the Chinese part of the river that is called the Mekong River in other countries. Wang Wei soon got them interested in bike riding too. After graduating from college, we finally got the chance to take a bike trip. I asked my sister, "Where are we going?" It was my sister who first had the idea to ride along the whole Mekong River from where it begins to where it ends. Now she is planning our schedule for the trip.

My sister has one serious shortcoming(缺點(diǎn)). She can be really stubborn(固執(zhí)的). Although she didn't know the best way of getting to places, she insisted(堅(jiān)持) that she organize the trip properly. Now, I know that the proper way is always her way. I kept asking her, "When are we leaving and when are we coming back?" I asked her whether she had looked at a map yet. Of course, she hadn't; my sister doesn't care about details(細(xì)節(jié)). So I told her that the source (源頭)of the Mekong River is in Qinghai Province. She gave me a determined look—the kind that said she would not change her mind. When I told her that our journey would begin at an altitude of more than 5,000 metres, she seemed to be excited about it. When I told her the air would be hard to breathe(呼吸) and it would be very cold, she said it would be an interesting experience. I know my sister well. Once she has made up her mind, nothing can change it. Finally, I had to give in.
Several months before our trip, Wang Wei and I went to the library. We found a large atlas with good maps that showed details of world geography. From it we could see that the Mekong River begins in a glacier on a mountain in Qinghai Province. At first the river is small and the water is clear and cold. Then it begins to move quickly. It becomes rapids as it passes through deep valleys, travelling across western Yunnan Province. Sometimes the river becomes a waterfall. We were both surprised to learn that half of the river is in China. After it leaves China, the Mekong becomes wide, brown and warm. As it enters Southeast Asia, its pace slows. At last, the river delta enters the South China Sea.
小題1:Who planned the trip to the Mekong River?
A．Wang KunB．Wang WeiC．Dao WeiD．Yu Hang
小題2:The Mekong River  begins from________.
A．KunmingB．western Yunnan ProvinceC．Qinghai ProvinceD．the South China Sea
小題3:According to the passage, which of the following can you see when you travel along the Mekong River  ?
A．An island.B．Taiwan. C．Some lions. D．A waterfall.
小題4:Which of the following is NOT TURE according to the passage?
A．Wang Kun and Wang Wei dreamed about taking a bike trip and finally they got the chance.
B．Wang Kun thought that it would be easy to start their trip in Qinghai.
C．Wang Kun had to stop arguing with Wang Wei and accept her idea finally.
D．Wang Kun and Wang Wei didn’t know that half of the river is in China before they went to the library.
小題5:What do you think is the best title of the passage ?
A．The Dream And The PlanB．A Trip In The Mountain
C．The Mekong RiverD．A Great Bike Trip
