Every day they are very busy trying to earn money in order to pay the high tuition for my brother and me. They don’t act in the romantic ways that I read in books or I see on TV. In their opinion, “I love you” is too luxurious for them to say. Sending flowers to each other on Valentine’s Day is even more out of the question. Finally my father has a bad temper. When he’s very tired from the hard work, it is easy for him to lose his temper.One day, my mother was sewing a quilt. I silently sat down beside her and looked at her.“Mom, is there love between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low voice.My mother stopped her work and raised her head with surprise in her eyes. She didn’t answer immediately. Then she bowed her head and continued to sew the quilt.But at last I heard my mother say the following words:“Susan,” she said thoughtfully, “Look at this thread. Sometimes it appears, but most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt strong. If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread. It can hardly be seen anywhere or anytime, but it’s really there. Love is inside.”I listened carefully but I couldn’t understand her until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month.After they were back, every day in the morning and dusk, my mother helped myfather walk slowly on the country road. My father had never been so gentle.The doctor had said my father would recover in two months. But after two months he still couldn’t walk by himself. All of us were worried about him.“Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day.“Susan, don’t worry about me.” he said gently. “To tell you the truth, I just like walking with your mom. I like this kind of life.” Reading his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply.Love is inside, making life strong and warm.29.We can i nfer from the passage that when the author asked if there was love between her father and her mother,she was .A.cheerfulB.cautiousC.confidentD.angry30.When mother said“If life is a quilt,then love should be a thread.”,the author felt at the moment.A.surprisedB.embarrassedC.confusedD.concerned31.What is the best title of the passage?A.Love Is Just a Thread.B.My Family Is Common.C.Father loves mother in fact.D.Being ill is a good thing.DRegardless of social class, race and age, men sa y they hate to shop,” says Zukin, City University of New York sociology professor．“Yet when you ask them deeper questions, it turns out that they like to shop．Men generally like to shop for books, music and hardware．But if you ask them about the shopping they do for books or music, they’ll say, “ Well, that’s not shopping．That’s resear ch．”In other words, what men and women call “buying things” and how they approach that task are different．Women will wander through several 1,000-square-meter stores in search of the perfect party dress．Men will wander through 100 Internet sites in search of the perfect digital camcorder（摄录像一体机）．Women see shopping as a social event．Men see it as a special task or a game to be won．“Men are frequently shopping to win,” says Ann, a marketing professor at LoyolaUniversity of Chicago．“They want to get the be st deal．They want to get the best one, the latest one and if they do that it makes them happy．” When women shop, they’re doing it in a way that they want everybody to be very happy,” says Ann．“They’re kind of shopping for love．”“ Teenage girls learn to s hop from their moms and older sisters, but they also learn to shop by examining articles in magazines like Seventeen,” City University Zukin says．“And although men’s magazines such as GQ and Esquire have long shopping articles, it’s TV that has the eye of young male shoppers,” say Ann and Zukin．“Television shows are used by young men in the same way Seventeen magazine or Lucky is used by girls,” says Zukin, “to help make clothing and toiletry（化妆品）choices．”“Of course, there are men who love to shop and are proud of it,” Loyola’s Ann says．And that is important no matter whether you buy a car or a frying pan．All men love to buy but don’t want to get cheated．Ann adds, “There actually are men who are interested, for example, in cooking or shopping or chinaware or things around the home-----they become kind of girl magnets．Women like it．”32．From the first paragraph we can find that _____．A．men are all dishonest B．men are all book-loversC．men hate to shop actually D．men like to shop in fact33．Compared to women, men usually treat shopping _____．A．honestly B．seriously C．frequently D．foolishly34．As is shown in this passage, teenage girls go shopping _____．A．only with their moms B．only with their sistersC．often following magazines D．often following TV shows35．The underlined work “magnets” in the last paragraph means _____．A．magazines that attract young women B．persons that have a powerful attractionC．tools that can help housewives much D．vegetables that make women beautiful第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
