I. Reading Comprehension (50 points, 2 points for each) Directions: In this part of the test, there are five passages. Following each passage, there arefive questions with four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer and thenblacken the corresponding letter on your Answer Sheet. Passage OneFrom time to time, we need an expert. In such situations, the Internet has been like a gift from the gods. In the old days, authorities were near at hand for expert advice: the villageseamstress on how to make a buttonhole, the blacksmith on how to take care of a horse’s hooves, or the apothecary on what to do about warts. On the Internet, advice and answer sites are popping up all over the place, with self-proclaimed experts at the ready./doc/1c4fe65a876a561252d380eb6294dd88d1d23d4a.html claims to have “tens of thousands of experts who can help you,”while the more restrained/doc/1c4fe65a876a561252d380eb6294dd88d1d23d4a.html , owned by The New York Times, limits its pitch to “Ask Anything! Real People. Real Answers.” It’s said that expert sites or knowledge networks represent the latest stage in the Internet’s evolution, a “democratization of expertise.” However, if your question is about something other than “Who invented the light bulb?”, the answers are likely to be a wild potpourriof personal opinions.Top colleges and universities are rushing into online education, but the big news is the proliferation of a new breed of for-profit online institutions bringing Internet education to the masses.“The Internet will probab ly be the single most democratizing force in education,” says Columbia Business School Dean Meyer Feldberg, who envisions educational programs being routed through the net to hundreds of millions of people.The largest online institution is the University of Phoenix, with some 6,000 students today and hopes of reaching 200,000 students in 10 years. The university offers bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral degrees in business management, technology, education, and nursing. The university notes that its degree programs cost far less and may take some students far less time to complete.On the other hand, a Business Week survey of 247 companies found that only a handful would consider hiring applicants who earned their MBA degrees online.Whether that will change as for-profit online universities improve their offerings and graduates prove their worth-is anyone’s guess.The rest of the world is moving into cyberspace more slowly than the United States, and, in the developing world, the Internet has hardly penetrated at all. UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan is determined to change this through the United Nations Information Technology Service, which will train large numbers of people to tap into the income enhancing power of the Internet. Annan is also proposing an Internet health network that will provide state-of-the-art medical knowledge to 10,000 clinics and hospitals in poor countries.Questions l-5 are based on Passage One.1. From the passage we may assume that the author______.A. trusts old days experts more than online onesB. believes that most of the online experts are qualifiedC. trusts the intelligence of large amounts of experts onlineD. believes that online experts can answer people’s questions better2. From paragraph 2 we can infer th at the author’s attitude towards experts online is_________.A. excitedB. neutralC. doubtfulD. indifferent3. Which of the following best describes the author’s opinion towards the future of online education?A. People have to wait and see.B. It is predictable in future development.C. It cannot thrive without good management.D. People believe that it is doomed from the start.4. The underlined phrase“state-of-the-art” in paragraph 6 means______.A. advanced and in large quantityB. very creative and artisticC. skillful and attractiveD. very modern5. Kofi Annan’s United Nations Information Technology Service aims at ______.A. improving UN staff’s computer skillB. promoting the use of the Internet over the worldC. providing medical knowledge to poor hospitalsD. promoting the use of the Internet in the United StatesPassage TwoNowadays there is a remarkable consensus among educators and business and policy leaders on one key conclusion: we need to bring what we teach and how we teach into the 21st century. Right now we’re aiming too low. Competency in reading and math —the focus of so much No Child Left Behind (NCLB) testing – is the meager minimum. Scientific and technical skills are, likewise: utterly necessary but insuf ficient. Today’s economy demands not only a high-level competence in the traditional academic disciplines but also what might be called 21st century skills. Here’s what they are:Knowing more about the world. Kids are global citizens now, even in small-town America, and they must learn to act that way. Mike Eskew, CEO of UPS, talks about needing workers who are“global trade literate, sensitive to foreign cultures, conversant in different languages” — not exactly strong points in the U.S., where fewer than half of high school students are enrolled in a foreign-language class and where the social-studies curriculum tends to fixate on U.S. history. Thinking outside the box. Jobs in the new economy —the ones that won’t get outsourced or automated –“put an enormous premium on creative and innovative skills, seeing patterns where other people see only chaos,” says Marc Tucker, an author of the skills-commission report and president of the National Center on Education and the Economy. Traditionally that’s been an American strength, but schools have become less daring in the back-to-basics climate of NCLB. Kids also must learn to think across disciplines, since that’s where most new breakthroughs are made. It’s interdisciplinary combinations —design and technology, mathematics and art –“that produce YouTube and Google,” says Thomas Friedman, the best-selling author of The World Is Flat.Becoming smarter about new sources of information. In an age of overflowing information and proliferating media, kids needto rapidly process what’s coming at them and distinguish between what’s reliable and what isn’t. “It’s important that students know how to manage it, interpret it, validate it, and how to act on it,” says Dell executive Karen Bruett, who serves on the board of the Partnership for 21st Century Skills, a groupof corporate and education leaders focused on upgrading American education.Developing good people skills. EQ, or emotional intelligence, is as important as IQ for success in today’s work place.‘‘Most inn ovations today involve large teams of people,” says former Lockheed Martin CEO Norman Augustine. “We have to emphasize communication skills, the ability to work in teams and with people from different cultures.”Questions 6-10 are based on Passage Two.6. The passage is mainly concerned with______.A. the No Child Left Behind program as a minimum requirementB. interdisciplinary combination for 21st century school educationC. the overall competence required of a student in the 21st centuryD. emotional intelligence as a means to career success in the 21st century7. If the workers are global trade literate, they should be______.A. global citizens even when they are kidsB. armed with foreign cultures and languagesC. living in big cities rather than in small townsD. good at doing business with peoples over the world8. It can be inferred from the passage that American kids used to be strong at______.A. making interdisciplinary combinationsB. social-studies courses and U.S. historyC. producing YouTube and GoogleD. creative and innovative thinking9. What should a student in an age of exploding information do with new sources of information?A. They should guard against the wrong information.B. They should be able to tell the difference between them.C. They should know how to interpret and organize them.D. They should be able to process them and identify the reliable ones.10. According to the passage, emotional intelligence involves______.A. teamwork, cooperation skills and communication skillsB. ability to deal with people from different backgroundsC. ability to make innovations as well as high intelligenceD. success in today’s workplace with people from many culturesPassage ThreeIt has been two decades since the fate of a bashful bird that most people had never seen came to symbolize the bitter divide over whether to save or saw down the ancient forests of the Pacific Northwest. Yet it was not until Thursday that the federal government offered its final plan to prevent the bird, the northern spotted owl, from going extinct.After repeated revisions, constant court fights and shifting science, the Fish and Wildlife Service presented a plan thataddresses a range of threats to the owl, including some that few imagined when it was listed as a threatened species in 1990. The newer threats include climate change and the arrival of a formidable feathered competitor, the barred owl, in the soaring old-growth evergreens of Washington, Oregon and California where spotted owls nest and hunt.One experiment included in the plan: shooting hundreds of barred owls to see whether that helps spotted owls recover. Even after all these years since the spotted owl became the cause c?l?bre of the environmental movement, it is far from clear that the plan is a solution. Advocates on both sides say it will inevitably be challenged, and both sides have expressed frustration with the Obama administration on the issue.The spotted owl is declining by an average of 3 percent per year across its range. While some populations in Southern Oregon and Northern California are more stable, some of the steepest rates of decline are here in Washington. Some study areas in the Olympic and Cascade ranges show annual declines as high as 9 percent.The listing of the spotted owl as a threatened species led to a virtual ban on logging in many older federal forests, inspiring angry lawsuits and threats of violence by rural loggers against owl advocates, who often came from urban areas.“Nothing against the bird, but it’s wreaked a lot of havoc in the Pacific Northwest for the past 20 years,” said Ray Wilkeson, president of the Oregon Forest Industries Council, which represents loggers, sawmills and others in the industry. “A lot of human suffering has resulted from this. Now there’re new threats to the owl that may be beyond anybody’s ability to control.”Although the plan does not map critical habitat —the mapping process is more than a year away from completion, a fact that frustrates conservationists –it proposes expanding protections for owls beyond areas currently set aside. The existing areas were outlined by the Northwest Forest Plan,which was approved a year after President Clinton’s Timber Conference, revised under President George W. Bush to allow more logging and reinstated by the Obama administration. The American Forest Resource Council, a timber industry group, said the plan would impose “massive new restrictions on both federal and private lands.”But supporters say it will provide more wood for mills by increasing forest thinning and restoration work to battle threats like disease and fire that could increase with climate change. The plan would provide timber companies incentives to create potential spotted owl habitat. Officials from the Forest Service and from the Bureau of Land Management, which oversee logging on federal land, expressed support for the plan.While timber advocates question protections for a bird that some say may be bound for extinction, conservationists say that it is too soon to give up on the spotted owl, and that the fight to save it has served broader benefits of the forest, from cleaner water and air to habitat for hundreds of other species, including endangered salmon.“The spotted owl is the icon,” Dr. Forsman said, “but there are a lot of other players in terms of species and protecting biodiversity in these forests.”Questions 11-15 are based on Passage Three.11. The purpose of the new government plan is to______.A. save Northern spotted owlB. save the Northwest forestC. list environmental threats to the Northern spotted owlD. list the Northern spotted owl as a threatened species12. Which (from Paras. 3, 4) of the following is NOT true?A. The number of barred owls grows fast.B. The spotted owl is hunted in the forest.C. The number of spotted owls is in decline.D. The barred owl is a newcomer to the forest.13. Who doubt about the plan?A. Only timber advocates.B. Only owl advocates.C. Advocates from both urban and rural areas.D. Both owl advocates and timber advocates.14. Conservationists feel frustrated because______.A. the new mapping of habitat in the protection for owls is slow to completeB. the new mapping of habitat for owls will extend beyond presently set areasC. the revised Northwest Forest Plan under President Obama is maintainedD. President Bush revised Northwest Forest Plan and allowed more logging15. Dr. Forsman wanted to express in the last paragraph that_______.A. the spotted owl is a rare speciesB. there are a lot of other players in the forestC. the spotted owl needs protectionD. some other species are equally importantPassage FourIf you’ve ever been pranked on April Fools’ Day, you may wonder how this trad ition started. Well, you’re not alone. No one knows for sure how April Fools’ Day began. But the most likely explanation has to do with the calendar.No, that’s not an April Fools’ Day joke. People used to celebrate New Year’s Day on April lst. Just like today, people would have big parties to celebrate. Over time, the calendar changed and so did the date for New Year’s. In the 1500s, the new calendar marked New Year’s Day as January lst. But because there was no Internet or other means to spread the word, the newstraveled slowly by word of mouth. It took a while for everyone to hear about the change, and even then some people resisted it. They continued to celebrate New Year’s on April lst. These people were given the nickname“April fools”.People follow ing; the new calendar played tricks on the “April fools” by sending them on“ fool’s errands”. They had the “April fools” deliver invitations to big New Year’s celebrations that weren’t really going to happen. In France, “April fools” were called “Poisson d’Avril”, which is French for “April Fish”. This began because people thought fish were easy to catch since they could be fooled into taking the bait on a hook. Children would tag a paper fish on a person’s back to mark them as an “April Fish”. When the per son discovered the fish, the prankster would yell “Poisson d’Avril”.Not everyone is convinced that this is actually how the tradition of April Fools’Day began. People have tried to pinpoint the exact date of the first April Fools’ Day, but this only led to more pranks. A professor from Boston University pranked a reporter by making up a story about a court jester who said he could run the empire better than the king. The jester was made king for a day on April lst. This turned out to be a big April Fools’ Day trick because the reporter thought the story was real.Even though we aren’t sure how this tradition began, people still celebrate April Fools’ Day by playing tricks on each other. So the next time you prank someone and yell “April Fools!” remember that the day may actually be about the people who didn’t want to change their traditions when the new calendar was adopted. Or maybe it’s just a day to celebrate the joker in all of us.Questions 16-20 are based on Passage Four16. If you prank somebody, it means you______.A. play card with that personB. win a trick over that personC. play a trick on that personD. know a trick of that person17. In the 1500s, who were given the nickname “April fools”?A. People who were not smart enough.B. Peopl e who didn’t know when April Fools’ Day was.C. People who celebrated New Year’s Day on January lst.D. People who refused to recognize New Year’s Day as January lst.18. On April lst, children in France used to______.A. place paper fish on other pe ople’s backsB. wear paper fish on their backsC. buy a new calendarD. go boat fishing19. What does the underlined word errand mean in paragraph 3?A. A small gift sent to somebody.B. A short trip to get something done.C. A brief trip to send invitation cards.D. A short message sent to somebody.20. What is the author’s purpose for writing this article?A. To tell readers how April Fools’ Day is celebrated.B. To remind readers that April Fools’ Day is coming up.C. To teach readers about the history of April Fools’ Day.D. To persuade readers into celebrating April Fools’ Day.Passage FiveYou may a ready know that hurricanes are major tropical storms that can cause devastating waves, wind, and rain. They happen during “Hurricane Season”, which is from June lst until November 30th in the Atlantic Ocean and from May 15th until November 30th in the Pacific Ocean.A storm progresses through four different stages before it is actually considered a hurricane. First is a tropical disturbance, which has thunderstorms and rotating winds, or what scientists call cyclonic circulation. Next is a tropical depression, which issimilar to a tropical disturbance, but has winds between 23 and 39 miles per hour. A tropical storm is the next level, which has stronger wind speeds between 40 and 73 miles per hour. Once winds reach 74 miles per hour, the storm is officially classified as a hurricane. The winds pick up energy from the warm surface ocean water.As a hurricane crosses over land, it begins to dissipate, or break apart and reduce in strength. This is because it is no longer over the warm ocean water that it needs for energy. At this point, a hurricane can still cause a lot of damage because of high winds, rain, and flooding, but unless it makes its way back over the open ocean, it is downgraded from a hurricane back to a tropical storm.The center of a hurricane is called the eye. While most of a hurricane contains dangerously strong winds, the eye is actually a calm area in the storm. When the eye of a hurricane passes over land, people might think that it’s over, but before long the wind and rain increase again as the second part of the hurricane moves through.Can you imagine flying a plane through a hurricane? If you’re a hurricane hunter, it’s your job! Hurricane Hunters fly airplanes on weather missions to help the National Hurricane Centermake predictions about hurricanes. Pilots determine how fast the winds are blowing, how big the hurricane is, and which direction it’s moving. This helps people to be better prepared for hurricanes as they approach shore.Hurricanes can leave behind lots of destruction. In 2005, Hurricane Katrina ripped through Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi and Texas. This was the sixth windiest hurricane on record, and it was one of the deadliest hurricanes in history. It took l,833 lives and caused over 76 billion dollars in damages. Many people are surprised to learn that Katrina’s wind didn’t cause mostof the damage. The wind had caused levees in New Orleans to break. When the levees broke, water from the Gulf of Mexico rushed into the low-lying land. Over 80% of the city of New Orleans was buried in flood water.Questions 21-25 are based on Passage Five.21. Which sequence of storm stages is in the correct order?A. Tropical depression, tropical disturbance, tropical storm, hurricane.B. Hurricane, tropical storm tropical depression, tropical disturbance.C. Hurricane, tropical depression, tropical storm, tropical disturbance.D. Tropical disturbance, tropical depression, tropical storm, hurricane.22. What would you observe if you were in the eye of a hurricane?A. Very heavy rain.B. Very little wind.C. Strong and spinning winds.D. Strong winds and heavy rain. .23. What happens when a hurricane crosses over land?A. It breaks apart and forms tornadoes.B. It gathers more vapor from land.C. It moves more quickly.D. It loses strength.24. What does a hurricane hunter do?A. Fly airplanes through hurricanes.B. Help people find a safe place to stay.C. Issue warnings to notify people of danger.D. Use computers to predict the paths of hurricanes.25. What caused the most destruction during Hurricane Katrina in 2005?A. Houses being blown away.B. Floods due to breaking levees.C. Heavy rain due to Hurricane Katrina.D. People going outdoors during the storm.。

READING COMPREHENSIONRead the two passages and choose the most likely answer to each of the questions.Blacken the letter corresponding to your choice on the answer sheet. (2 points each, 20 points in all)Passage OneBike trailers are now becoming a popular mode of transportation. If you are wondering what a bike trailer is, it is a motorless wheeled frame attached to your bicycle. Its primary function is to help the bike rider in carrying additional load．Instead of carrying the load on the bike, it can now be carried on the bike trailer which greatly reduces the strain placed on the bike. It is convenient, easy to use and it helps you live an active lifestyle.Bike trailers are an alternative to carrying different sorts of loads. Instead of using your car to go to the nearby grocery store perhaps, why not use your bike trailer? It not only saves you money from the gas which should have been spent by your car, it also does the job of carrying your groceries.Planning to get a bike trailer? Make sure to decide on what you are going to use it for first. Different bike trailers are made for different uses. There are a variety of bike trailers being commercially manufactured．The general trailers available in the market today are the general cargo trailer which is used to carry different sorts of loads from groceries to furniture, child passenger trailer which is used to carry a child, pet trailer which is used to carry cats or dogs, and canoe trailers which are used to carry long and narrow loads like canoes and surfboards.If you want a trailer to carry cargo all around, then a cargo trailer would definitely suit your needs. If you want to take your child along with you while you ride your bike, then check out the different child trailers available in the market.There are two types of bike trailers in the market today based on the number of wheels. The first is the single wheel trailer which can carry light to medium loads. It is popular among hikers since it is great for trail riding and narrow surfaces. It is also stable when making sharp turns at high speeds. The other type of trailer is the two-wheel trailer which obviously has two wheels. It can carry heavier loads than the single wheel type. When making sharp turns at high speeds it may roll over, so be sure to slow down before making the turns.Caring for your bike trailer is easy and comparable to that of a bike. Cleaning the trailer requires water, soap and wax. Regularly check the tires for abnormalities like low air pressure or wear and tear for this may cause accidents.When you are out riding in your bike trailer, keep in mind that it is different from riding a bike. The responses are different. You may notice that your bike may be a bit unresponsive due to the extra load．Be sure to take trial runs in non-busy roads to get you acquainted with the newriding conditions.Riding at night is more dangerous than riding during the daytime. Make sure that you have a front light and a rear light and that both are switched on. Be sure also to have front, back and side reflectors so that you would always be visible to traffic．41. The passage mentions all the following aspects about a bike trailer EXCEPT ______.A．its maintenance B．its priceC．its definition D．its uses42. Which of the following is an advantage of a bike trailer over a car?A．It can help reduce the weight on your riding.B．You don’t have to check the tires regularly.C．You don’t have to spend money on gas.D．It can carry groceries for you.43. A two-wheel trailer should be a better choice than a single wheel trailer when ______.A．you carry heavy loadsB．you ride on a narrow surfaceC．your additional load is not heavyD．you make a sharp turn at high speed44. Which of the following is a difference between riding in a bike trailer and riding a bike?A．You need to check the tires regularly for a bike trailer.B．It is easier to ride in a trailer than riding a bike.C．A trailer requires water and wax for cleaning.D．A trailer cannot react as quickly as a bike.45. What is the writer’s purpose in writing this passage?A．To provide information about bike trailers.B．To advertise for a new mode of transportation.C．To arouse your interest in more active lifestyle.D．To advise you to be careful when riding in a bike trailer.Passage 2Martin was returning to work in his London office after spending two weeks with his brother over in New York. He was coming back with a heavy heart. It was not just that it was the end of a wonderful holiday; it was not just that he invariably suffered badly from jet lag; it was that Monday mornings always began with a team meeting and, over the months, he had grown to hate them.Martin was aware that colleagues approached these meetings with hidden agendas; they enjoyed game-playing, and he knew that people were not being honest and open. The meetings themselves were bad enough—but then there was all the moaning afterwards. “The usual people say the usual things.” “I could have improved on that idea, but I wasn’t going to say.” “I was thinking of making a suggestion—but I couldn’t be bothered.”As this morning’s meeting began, Martin braced himself for the usual moroseness (闷闷不乐) and monotony. But, as the meeting progressed, he became aware of a strange background noise. At first, he thought that he was still hearing the engine noise from the aircraft that had brought him back to London—he had had to sit over the wing and the noise was terrible. But, as he concentrated on the noise, it became a little clearer.He realized—to his amazement—that he could hear what his colleagues were thinking as well as what they were saying. As he concentrated still harder, he found that he could actually hear what they were thinking at the same time as they were speaking. What surprised him, even more than the acquisition of this strange power, was that he discovered that what people were saying was not really what they were thinking. They were not making clear their reservations. They were not supporting views which they thought might be unpopular. They were not contributing their new insights. They were not volunteering their new ideas.Martin found it impossible not to respond to his new knowledge. So he started to make gentle interventions, based more on what he could hear his colleagues thinking than on what he could hear them saying. “So, John, are you really saying …?” “Susan, do you really think that?” “Tom, have you got an idea on how we could take this forward?” He was aware that his colleagues were unsettled by how insightful these interventions were. They looked at him mystified．In truth, he felt rather proud of his newly-acquired talent.Given more confidence now, Martin forgot his usual misery at participating in such meetings and began making comments of his own. However, he became aware that some of his colleagues were looking at him totally confused．One or two even had a gentle smile playing on their lips. Only gradually did it dawn on them—he could hear their thoughts and they were not really saying what they were thinking.As the meeting progressed, Martin became aware of changes to the tone and style of the event. It was clear to him now that, one by one, each member of the meeting was learning how to hear the thoughts of all the others and this was subtly changing how they interacted with one another. The game-playing started to fall away; people started to speak more directly; views became better understood; the atmosphere became more open and trusting.The meeting ended．As people left the room, Martin found that he could still hear what they were thinking. “That was the best meeting we’ve ever had.”“All meetings should be like that.” “In future, I’m going to say what I think.”46. Why did Martin hate the team meetings?A．His colleagues were making stories.B．His colleagues complained too much.C．His colleagues pretended to be friendly.D．His colleagues held back their true feelings.47. Which of the following is nearest in meaning to “braced himself for” in Paragraph 3 ?A．prepared himself for B．adapted himself toC．concemed himself about D．persuaded himself into48. With the strange power of being able to hear what others were thinking and saying, Martinrealized that______.A．he had been cheatedB．he was lucky to know the truthC．people didn’t mean what they saidD．people were unwilling to work there49. Which of the following can be expected at future team meetings?A．Everyone will be cooperative. B．Everyone will be straightforward．C．Everyone will be respectful. D．Everyone will be considerate.50. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A．A Mysterious Power B．A Meeting of MindsC．Trust Means All D．Unity Is Success非选择题部分注意事项：用黑色字迹的签字笔或钢笔将答案写在答题纸上，不能答在试题卷上。

Masks are very useful. At Halloween, children wear masks for fun; they may, of course, also think they are disguising themselves, but chiefly their motive is to experience the joy of saying “ boo” to someone. Soldiers wore masks for protection, in ancient times against swords and battle-axes, in more recent times against poison gas. Bank robbers wear masks to disguise themselves, and though of course this disguise is a sort of protection, a robber 's reason for wearing a mask is fairly distinct from a soldier 'Alsl . of these reasons so far are easily understood, but we may have more trouble grasping the reason that primitive people use masks in religious rituals. Some ritual masks seem merely to be attempts to frighten away evil spirits, and some seem merely to be disguises so that the evil spirits will not know who the wearer is. The masks are usually made of paper. But most religious masks are worn with the idea that the wearer acquires, through a union with supernatural powers, a new identity, and thus in effect becomes—really becomes, not merely pretends to be —a new person.VI. 写信(40 points)Write a letter to your friend according to the following situation: Y ou(Weiping) haven 't heard from your friend(Zhijie) since the SARS outbreak. You tell him or her about yourself and the general situation in Beijing during that period. Since Beijing was taken off the list of SARS-infected areas, things have gradually come back to normal.

Read the following paragraph and write the topic sentence on the answer sheet.All through the long history of the Earth, waves have broken heavily against the land, and tides have pressed forward over the continents, moved back, and then returned. For no two days is the shoreline precisely the same. Not only do the tides advance and retreat in their eternal rhythms, but the level of the sea itself is never at rest. It rises or falls as the large masses of ice melt or grow, as the floor of the deep ocean basins shifts under its increasing load of sediments (沉积物), or as the Earth’s crust along the continental margins changes in adjustment to strain and tension. Today a little more land may be low to the sea, tomorrow a little less. Always the edge of the sea remainsa changing boundary.2 / 418.

There’s a coffee shop nearby. No matter how hard I tried, I never could cook what the menu said because the food company always delivered the wrong food or brought it late. I also was frustrated because I had trouble estimating how much food to cook. Many times we ran short of hamburgers or had to throw away pounds and pounds of French fries. Sometimes we ate the extra French fries, though, and we’d sit around, joking and having a good time. The worst thing, however, was the condition of my clothes after the meal was over. Even if I hadn’t spilled anything (and I usually had spilled some kind of sauce), my clothes smelled awful. I’d want to go home to change before going; anywhere else. No wonder, then, I thought cooking in a fast food restaurant was frustrating.VI.写信(40 points)21.
