I needed to buy a digital camera, one that was simply good at taking good snaps (快照), maybe occasionally for magazines. Being the cautious type, I fancied a reliable brand. So I went on the net, spent 15 minutes reading product reviews on good websites, wrote down the names of three top recommendations and headed for my nearest big friendly camera store. There in the cupboard was one of the cameras on my list. And it was on special offer. Oh joy. I pointed at it and asked an assistant, “Can I have one of those?” He looked perturbed (不安).“Do you want to try it first?" he said. It didn't quite sound like a question. "Do I need to?" I replied. "There's nothing wrong with it?" This made him look a bit insulted and I started to feel bad. "No, no. But you should try it," he said encouragingly." Compare it with the others. "

     I looked across at the others: shelves of similar cameras placed along the wall, offering a wide range of slightly different prices and discounts, with each company selling a range of models based around the same basic box. With so many models to choose from, it seemed that I would have to spend hours weighing X against Y, always trying to take Z and possibly H into account at the same time. But when I had finished, I would still have only the same two certainties that I had entered the store with: first, soon after I carried my new camera out of the shop, it would be worth half what I paid for it; and second, my wonderful camera would very quickly be replaced by a new model.

     But something in the human soul whispers that you can beat these traps by making the right choice, the clever choice, the wise choice. In the end, I agreed to try the model I had chosen. The assistant seemed a sincere man. So I let him take out my chosen camera from the cupboard, show how it took excellent pictures of my fellow shoppers... and when he started to introduce the special features, I interrupted to ask whether I needed to buy a carry-case and a memory card as well.

      Why do we think that new options (選擇) still offer us anything new? Perhaps it is because they offer an opportunity to avoid facing the fact that our real choices in this culture are far more limited than we would like to imagine.

1. The shop assistant insisted that the writer should __ .

     A. try the camera to see if there was anything wrong with it

     B. compare the camera he had chosen with the others

     C. get more information about different companies

     D. trust him and stop asking questions

2. What does the writer mean by "it would be worth half what I paid for it"  (Paragraph 2) ?

     A. He should get a 50% discount.

     B. The price of the camera was unreasonably high.

     C. The quality of the camera was not good.

     D. The camera would soon fall in value.

3. The writer decided to try the model he had chosen because he __ .

     A. knew very little about it

     B. didn't trust the shop assistant

     C. wanted to make sure the one he chose would be the best

     D. had a special interest in taking pictures of his fellow shoppers

4. It can be inferred from the passage that in the writer's opinion, __

     A. people waste too much money on cameras

     B. cameras have become an important part of our daily life

     C. we don't actually need so many choices when buying a product

     D. famous companies care more about profit than quality

In 1901, H.G. Wells, an English writer, wrote a book describing a trip to the moon. When the explorers (探險者) landed on the moon, they discovered that the moon was full of underground cities. They expressed their surprise to the "moon people" they met. In turn, the "moon people" expressed their surprise. "Why," they asked, "are you traveling to outer space when you don' t even use your inner space?"

H.G. Wells could only imagine travel to the moon. In 1969, human beings really did land on the moon. People today know that there are no underground cities on the moon. However, the question that the "moon people" asked is still an interesting one. A growing number of scientists are seriously thinking about it.

Underground systems are already in place. Many cities have underground car parks. In some cities, such as Tokyo, Seoul and Montreal, there are large underground shopping areas.  The "Chunnel", a tunnel (隧道) connecting England and France, is now complete.

But what about underground cities? Japan's Taisei Corporation is designing a network of underground systems, called "Alice Cities." The designers imagine using surface space for public parks and using underground space for flats, offices, shopping, and so on. A solar dome (太陽能穹頂) would cover the whole city.

Supporters of underground development say that building down rather than building up is a good way to use the earth's space. The surface, they say, can be used for farms, parks, gardens, and wilderness. H.G. Wells' "moon people" would agree. Would you?

The explorers in H. G. Wells' story were surprised to find that the "moon people"

A. knew so much about the earth

B. understood their language

C. lived in so many underground cities

D. were ahead of them in space technology

What does the underlined word "it" (paragraph 2) refer to?

A. Discovering the moon's inner space.     B. Using the earth's inner space.

C. Meeting the "moon people" again.       D. Traveling to outer space.

What sort of underground systems are already here with us?

A. Offices, shopping areas, power stations.   B. Tunnels, car parks, shopping areas.

C. Gardens, car parks, power stations.       D. Tunnels, gardens, offices.

What would be the best title for the text?

A. Alice Cities –- cities of the future        B. Space travel with H. G. Wells

C. Enjoy living underground                 D. Building down, not up

If you struggled to get up for work on Wednesdays, there could be a good reason: it is the day our mood reaches its lowest point.

       Psychologists (心理學家) have found that, on average, people's moods remain about the same on each day throughout the week.

       Monday has traditionally been thought of as the most depressing(壓抑) day of the week but according to psychologists, more attention should be given to midweek in reality.

       Wednesday proves the lowest point in the week as people are furthest away from the weekend and often feel stuck in work.

       Most people generally believe their worst moods were on Monday mornings and evenings but they became increasingly cheerful as the week went on, with their best moods falling on Friday and Saturday mornings and evenings. They saw them as less-organized days when they could choose how to spend their time.

       The psychologists asked 350 people. They found that, on average, people's moods remained about the same on each day throughout the week. Mondays were not as depressing and Fridays and Saturdays were not as exciting as predicted(預測).

       Professor Charles Areni, who led .the study, said the day-of-the-week ideas come from a  cultural belief that people are generally happier when they are free to choose their activities  compared to when they are at work.

In reality, he said, weekends do not often mean happy moods because people are frequently taken up by energy-requiring activities and they may feel tired like work.

"Ideas like Monday morning blues and Thank God It's Friday are largely illusions." h said.

1.The passage is written to_____.

A.introduce the result of a psychological research

B.show the way of doing a psychological research

C.throw doubt on the old day-of-the-week ideas

D.keep people in high spirits during the week

2.The writer of the passage might agree with the idea that _____.

     A.Monday is the most depressing day of the week with a long week ahead

     B.on weekend people are generally happier when they are free from work

     C.people are always heavy-hearted at the very beginning of most weeks

     D.it's reasonable if you feet unwilling to get up and go for work in midweek

3.The underlined word "illusions" in the last paragraph means _____.

     A.good impressions                      B.wrong ideas

     C.happy feelings                          D.bad opinions

4.The best title for the passage falls on_____.

     A.Monday Morning Blues                  B.Depressing Weekends

     C.Wednesday Most Unhappy           D.Thank God It's Friday
