Arden, North Carolina 28704
Dear Ms. Hamilton,
I recently purchased a Charmante VX12 Laser printer from Tech Giant and was initially satisfied with the product. After only two days, however, my printer started to malfunction. I (150) returned it to the store and exchanged it for another VX12, but after only four days, that printer began to malfunction too. Although I could have had the machine repaired (151) warranty, I chose to exchange it for a model from another company instead. I'm not sure if these problems occur with all Charmante VX12s or just the two that I had, but I think it may be worth looking into to (152) future customer dissatisfaction.
Sincerely,
Robert Evans

听力原文: As my train was not due to leave for another hour, I had plenty of time to spare. After buying some newspapers to read on the journey, I made my way to the luggage office to collect my suitcase I had left there three days before. There were only a few people waiting. I took out my wallet to find the receipt for my case. Unfortunately, it was nowhere to be found.
When my turn came, I explained the situation sorrowfully to the assistant. He then handed me a form. and told me to make a list of the chief contents of the case. Only when they were correct could I take the case away. I racked my brain trying to remember all the articles I had packed in a hurry. After I had filled out the form, I went to look among the shelves. There were hundreds of cases and for one dreadful moment I began to worry that someone might have already claimed my case. To my great relief, the case was lying on its side high up in a corner. After I had examined the items inside, the assistant told me to take the case away. Again I took out my wallet: this time to pay. I pulled out a ten-shilling note and the "lost" receipt flipped out with it. Blushing, I looked up at the assistant. He was nodding his head knowingly, as if to say that he had often seen this happen.

Mr. Johnson's car had finished up in a ditch (沟渠) at Romney Marsin,Kent after skidding on ice and hitting a bank. "Fortunately, the water began to come in only slowly," Mr. Johnson said. "I couldn't force the doors because they were jammed against the walls of the ditch and dared not open the windows because I knew water would come flooding in."
Mr. Johnson, a sweet salesman of Sitting Home, Kent, first tried to attract the attention of other motorists by sounding the horn and hammering on the roof and boot. Then he began his struggle to escape.
Later he said, "It was really a half penny that saved my life. It was the only coin I had in my pocket and I used it to unscrew (拧开) the back seat to get into the boot. I hammered desperately with a hammer trying to make someone hear, but no help came."
It took ten minutes to unscrew the seat, and a further five minutes to clear the sweet samples from the boot. Then Mr. Johnson found a wrench and began to work on the boot lock. Fifteen minutes passed by."It was the only chance I had. Finally it gave, but as soon as I moved the boot lid, the water and mud poured in. I forced the lid down into the mud and scrambled clear as the car filled up."
His hands and arms cut and bruised (擦伤), Mr. Johnson got to Beckett Farm nearby, where he was looked after by the farmer's wife, Mrs. Lucy Bates. Huddled in a blanket, he said, "That thirty minutes seemed like hours." Only the tips of the car wheels were visible, police said last night. The vehicle had sunk into two feet of mud at the bottom of the ditch.
What is the best title for this newspaper article?
A.The Story of Mr. Johnson, a Sweet Salesman.
B.Car Boot Can Serve as the Best Escape Route.
C.The Driver Survived a Terrible Car Accident.
D.Driver Escapes Through Car Boot.

I got on the first bus that passed, rode on it for several stops, then got off it and walked on. The first two hours passed pleasantly enough. Then I decided to turn back to my hotel for lunch. After walking about for some time, I decided I had better ask the way. The trouble was that the only word I knew of the language was the name of the street in which I lived and even that I pronounced badly.
I stopped to ask a friendly-looking newspaper-seller. He smiled and handed me a paper. I shook my head and repeated the name of the street but he put the paper into my hands. I had to give him some money and went on my way. The next person I asked was a policeman. The policeman listened to me carefully, smiled and gently took me by the arm. There was a strange look in his eyes, as he pointed left and right and left again. I thanked him politely and began walking in the direction he pointed.
About an hour passed and I noticed that the house was getting fewer and fewer and green fields were appearing on either side of me. I had come all the way into the countryside. The only thing left for me to do was to find the nearest railway station.
The writer believed that if you wanted to get to know a strange city, ______.
A.you should go everywhere on foot
B.you should have a map
C.you should ask people the way
D.you should get lost

听力原文: I was a freshman in law school. In a few years I would be out in practice. I was well aware of the importance of the right kind of wife in furthering a lawyer's career. Successful lawyers were, almost without exception, married to beautiful, gracious, intelligent women. With one omission, Polly fitted these specifications perfectly.
I had long wanted Polly. My desire for this young woman was not emotional in nature. I wanted Polly simply because she had the makings of a fit wife for me. She was beautiful, gracious, but not intelligent. Yet, I believed that under my guidance, she would make a qualified wife for me. It is, after all, easier to make a beautiful dumb girl smart than to make an ugly smart girl beautiful. After our very first date, I detected that the biggest problem with her was that she did not know how to think. So I decided to give her lessons in logic.
Fortunately, my efforts proved worthwhile. I had made a logician out of Polly, and she was worthy of me at last. Thus, the time had come to acquaint her with my affection. To my astonishment, Polly turned me down. She employed all that I had taught her to reject me. I was completely defeated. In my frustration, an old saying flashed into my mind, "Pick up a stone only to drop it on one's own feet".
(26)
A.Philosophy.
B.Psychology.
C.Logic.
D.Law.

"He' s not here," I said, after a quick look around. The television was speaking out an advertisement for a detergent(洗衣粉), and the people sitting round had their eyes glued to the picture of a woman proudly showing how white her husband' s underwear was after having been washed. They took no notice of us at all.
"Well, what did you expect?" replied Fergus, yawning (打呵欠)." It's only half past nine, and he said he would be here at nine. You ought to know Graig by this time. He' 11 turn up some- time after ten."
