练习题一
Complaints should be made to a responsible person. Go back to the shop where you bought the goods, taking with you any(36)you may have. Ask to see the buyer in a large store. In a small store the assistant may also be the owner so you can complain(37). In a chain store ask to see the manager.
Even the bravest person finds it difficult to complain face to face, so if you do not want to do it in (38),write a letter. Be sure to39to the facts and keep a copy of what you write. At this stage you should give any receipt numbers, but you should not need to give receipts or other papers to prove you bought the article. If you are not(40)with the answer you get, or if you do not get a reply, write to the managing director of the firm, shop, or organization. Be sure to keep copies of your own letters and any you receive.
If your complaint is a just one, the shopkeeper may offer to(41) or repair the faulty article. You may find this an(42) solution. In certain cases you may have the right to refuse the goods and ask for your money back,but this is only where you have hardly used the goods and have acted at once. Even when you cannot refuse the goods you may be able to get some money back as well. And if you have suffered some(43)loss, if for example a new washing machine tears your clothes, you might receive money to replace them. If the shopkeeper offers you a credit note to be used to buy goods in the same shops but you would rather have money, say so. If you accept a credit note remember that later you will not be able to ask for your money. If the shopkeeper refuses to give you money, ask for(44) from your Citizens' Advice Bureau before you accept a credit note. In some cases the shopkeeper does not have to give you your money back--if, for example, he changes an article simply because you don't like it or it does not fit. He does not hive to take back the goods in these(45).
A. intimate
B. attractive
C. person
D. attachment
E. satisfied
F. receipt
G. contaminate
H. replace
I. special
J. stick
K.vigorously
L. advice
M. circumstances
N. directly
O. petitions
投诉应该找负责人。带上你可能有的任何[36]收据,返回你购买商品的商店。在大商店里,要求见进货员。在小商店里,店员也可能是店主,所以你可以[37]直接投诉。在连锁商店里,要求见经理。
即便是最勇敢的人也会觉得当面投诉很困难,所以,如果不想E3S]当面投诉,你可以写信。确保所写[39]属实,并把你所写的内容复印一份自己保留。在这个阶段,你应该提供所有的收据单号,但是你无需 提供收据或其他文件来证明你买了这件商品。 如果你对所得到的回复不[40]满意,或者如果你没得到回复,要写信给这家公司、商店或组织的总经理。务必将你自己写的信以及你收到的任何来信备份。如果你的投诉是合理的,店主可能会提出[41]退换或修理有问题的物品。你可能会觉得这是个[42]很吸 引人的解决方法。在某些情况下,你或许有权拒绝接受这件商品并要求退款,但这只有在你几乎没用过这件商品并即时采取行动的情况下才可以。即使你无法拒绝这件商品,你或许也能拿回些退款。
而且,如果你遭受了一些[43]特殊的损失,例如,如果一台 新洗衣机把你的衣服弄破了,你也许会获得损失的赔偿。如果店主给你提供信用证,让你在同样的商店里购买商品时使用,而你更希望他给你钱,那么你就该说出来。如果你接受了信用证,请记住,你之后就不能索要退款了。如果店主拒绝给你钱,你可以在 接受信用证前向公民咨询局征求[44]意见。在一些情况下,店主不需要给你退款——比如,因为你不喜欢某件商品或这件商品不适合你,而他也给你换了货的话,在这些[45]情况下,他不需要收回商品并退款。
练习题二
Directions: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for each item on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.
Questions 36 to 45 are based on the following passage.
Culture is the sum total of all the traditions, customs, beliefs, and ways of life of a given group of human beings. In this (36), every group has a culture, however savage, undeveloped, or uncivilized it may seem to us.
To the professional anthropologist (人类学家), there is no intrinsic(37)of one culture over another, just as to the professional linguist there is no intrinsic hierarchy(等级制度) among languages.
People once thought of the languages of backward groups as (38) and undeveloped forms of speech,consisting largely of grunts and groans. While it is possible that language in general began as a series of grunts and groans, it is a fact established by the study of "backward" languages that no spoken tongue answers that description today. Most languages of uncivilized groups are, by our most severe standards, extremely complex, delicate, and ingenious pieces of machinery for the(39)of ideas. They fall behind our Western languages not in their sound patterns or(40 )structures, which usually are fully adequate for all language needs, but only in their vocabularies, which41the objects and activities known to their speakers. Even in this department, however,two things are to be noted: 1. All languages seem to(42)the machinery for vocabulary expansion, either by putting together words already in existence or by borrowing them from other languages and adapting them to their own system. 2. The objects and activities requiring names and distinctions in"backward" languages, while different from ours, are often surprisingly(43)and complicated.
This study of language, in turn, (44)a new light upon the claim of the anthropologists that all cultures are to be viewed(45), and without ideas of rank or hierarchy.
A. savage
B. superiority
C. conceive
D. transfer
E. identification
F.grammatical
G. reflect
H. reveals
I. numerous
J . independently
K. exclusive
L. casts
M. sense
N. confidentially
O. possess
文化是人类某一特定群体所有传统、风俗、信仰及生活方式的总和。从这种[36]意义上说,每个群体都有一种文化,不管在我们看来,它是多么野蛮、不发达或未开化。
对于专业的人类学家而言,没有哪种文化在本质上比另一种[37]优越,这就像对于专业的语言学家而言。语言之间并没有内在的等级一样。
人们曾经认为落后群体的语言就是[38]野蛮的、不发达的言语形式,主要包括咕哝和呻吟。尽管一般来说,语言有可能是以一系列的咕哝和呻吟的形式开始的,但是,通过对“落后”语言的研究证实,今天没有哪种语言符合这种描述。按照我们的最严格标准来讲,作为[39]传递思想的工具,多数未开化人群的语言极其复杂、缜密,并具有独创性。这些语言在语音模式或[40]语法结构上通常能完全满足语言的所有需求,并不落后于我们西方的语言,比我们落后的只是[41]反映这些说话者所知物体及活动的词汇。然而,即使是在这方面,也有两点值得一提:1.所有语言都[42]拥有拓展词汇的机制,要么是通过将现存词汇组合在一起来拓展,要么是通过从其他语言中借入一些词并将其改造以适应自身体系来实现。2.在这些[43]“落后的”语言中,尽管那些需要 名字及区分的物体及活动与我们不同,它们却都经常是多得出奇、复杂得出奇。
对于语言的研究反过来让人们对人类学家的断言——所有的文化都该被[45]独立看待,而不该带着等级观念去看待——[44]有了新的认识。

Questions 36 to 45 are based on the following passage.
Many of the aids which are advertised as liberating the modem woman tend to have the opposite effect,because they simply change the nature of work instead of eliminating it. Machines have a certain novelty value,like toys for adults. It is (36 )less tiring to put clothes in a washing machine, but the time saved does not really37too much: the machine has to be watched, the clothes have to be carefully sorted first, stains38by hand, buttons pushed and water changed, clothes taken out, aired and ironed.
It would be more liberating to pack it all off to a(39)and not necessarily more expensive, since no capital investment is required. Similarly, if you really want to save time you do not make cakes with an electric mixer, you buy one in a shop. If one compares the image of domesticated woman fostered by the women's magazines with the goods advertised by those periodicals, advertising which finances them, one realizes how useful a projected image can be in commerce. A careful (40) has to be struck: if you show a labor-saving gadget, follow it up with a(41)recipe on the next page; on no account hint at the notion that a woman could get herself a job, but instead foster her sense of her own usefulness,(42) the creative aspect of her function as a housewife. So we get cake mixes where the cook simply adds an egg herself, to produce "that lovely home-baked(43)the family love",and knitting patterns that can be made by hand, or worse still, on knitting machines, which became a tremendous vogue when they were first(44) (difficult to know who would wear all those rapidly produced sweaters, which lacked the advantages of hand-made woolens). Automatic cookers are advertised by pictures of pretty young mothers taking their children to the park, not by(45)women presetting the dinner before catching a bus to the office.
A. laundry
B. exaggerate
C . emphasize
D. certainly
E. indignant
F. removed
G. amount
H. excessively
I. complicated
J. handled
K. flavor
L. professional
M. introduced
N. calculation
O. balance
广告上所说的许多可以解放现代妇女的辅助设备往往会产生相反的效果,因为它们只是改变了劳动的性质而并没有消除劳动。机器有某种新颖的价值,就像成年人的玩具一样。把衣服放进洗衣机[36]确实可以轻松些,但所节省出的时间[37]总量却实在没有太多:机器需要有人看着,先得把衣服认真分好类。用手把污渍[38]洗掉,还得按按钮、换水,然后取出衣物、晾干、熨平。
把所有衣服打包送到[39]洗衣房反而更加省事,而且也未必更贵,因为不需要任何资本投资。同样.如果你真的想节约时间,你就不会用电动搅拌机来做蛋糕,而是去商店里买。如果你将女性杂志所培育出来的居家女性形象与那些给它们提供经费的期刊、广告里所宣传的商品相比较的话,你就会意识到树立形象在商业上是多么有用。你需要小心地建立一种[40]平衡:如果你展示了一个省力的小器具,那么,紧接着下一页就要展示一个[41]复杂的要诀;绝不能做出这种暗示,即女人可以找到一份工作,而 是要培养她自身的价值意识,[42]强调她作为家庭主妇时富有创意的一面。因此,我们准备好现成的蛋糕粉,烹饪者只要自己加个鸡蛋进去就能做出“那种家人喜爱的、诱人的家庭烘焙的[43]风味”。还有可以手工编织的图案,或者更糟糕的是,可以用编织 机织出的编织图案,而在编织机刚被[44]引进时,这些东西十分流行(很难知道谁会穿上那些迅速生产出来的毛衣,它们缺乏手工编织的毛织物的优势)。自动化炊具的广告图片上是美丽的年轻母亲带着孩子到公园玩,而不是[45]职业女性在赶公交车土班前预 先准备好晚饭的场景。

Questions 36 to 45 are based on the following passage.
England's highest main-line railway station hangs on to life by a thread: deserted and unmanned (无人的 )since it was officially closed in 1970. Dent, 36 high in the hills of Yorkshire, wakes up On six summer weekends each year, when a special charter train unloads walkers, sightseers and people who37want to catch a train from the highest station, on to its platform. But even this limited existence may soon be brought to an end.
Dent station is situated on the Settle to Carlisle railway line, said to be the most38in the country. But no amount of scenic beauty can save the line from British Rail's cash problems. This year, for the 39 of economy, the express trains which used to pass through Dent station have been put on to another route.
It is now an open secret that British Rail sees no future for this railway line. Most of its trains disappeared some time ago. Its bridge, built on a grand 40 a century ago, is falling down. It is not alone. Half-a-dozen railway routes in the north of England are facing a similar threat. The problem is a worn-out system and an almost 41 lack of cash to repair it. Bridges and tunnels are showing their age, the wooden supports for the tracks are rotting and engines and coaches are getting old. On42lines between large cities, the problem is not too bad. These lines still make a profit and cash can be found to43 them. But on the country branch line, the story is different. As track wears out, it is not replaced. Instead speed limits are introduced, making journeys longer than necessary and discouraging customers.
If a bridge is dangerous, there is often only one thing for British Rail to do: go out and find money from another44. This is exactly what it did a few months ago when a bridge at Bridlington station was threatening to fail down. Repairs were45 at 200,000--just for one bridge--and British Rail was delighted, and rather surprised, when two local councils offered half that amount between them.
A. maintain
B. scenic
C. transcend
D. source
E. estimated
F. sake
G. complex
H.simply
I. consolidation
J. situated
K. respectively
L. total
M. major
N. restrained
O. scale
英格兰铁路主干线上海拔最高的火车站命悬一线:自从1970年正式关闭后,它已经被废弃,也没人管理了。丹特火车站[36]坐落于高高的约克郡丘陵地区。每年夏天有六个周末,当一班专门的包租火车将徒步者、游客以及[37]仅仅想去最高的火车站乘坐火车的人卸载到站台上时,丹特火车站才会醒过来。
但是,即使是这种受限的存在方式也可能很快就会被终结。丹特火车站位于从赛特尔开往卡莱尔的铁路线上,该铁路线据说是英国风景最[38]优美的。然而,美丽的风景却无法使其幸免于英国国铁的资金困难。今年,[39]由于经济原因,过去曾经过丹特火车站的特快列车已经改走其他路线了。
英国国铁看不到这条铁路线的未来,现在这已经是人尽皆知的秘密了。它的多数火车不久前都已经消失。一个世纪前,以宏大[40]规模兴建的架桥也快倒塌了。这绝非个例。英国北部有六条铁路线面临着类似的威胁。问题在于一方面系统破旧不堪,而另一方面几乎[41]完全没有修理资金。架桥和隧道已老化,轨道的木支架正在腐烂,发动机和车厢也日显陈旧。
在大城市之间的[42]主干线上,问题并不是太严重。这些铁路线仍在盈利,能找到资金来[43]维护保养它们。但是,在乡村支线上,情况就完全不同了。日益磨损的轨道并没得到更换,反而实行了限速。这使得旅程不必要地延长,也让乘客沮丧。
如果架桥有危险,英国国铁要做的通常只有一件事:走出去,从另一个[44]渠道找资金。几个月前,当布里德灵顿火车站的一座桥摇摇欲坠时,英国国铁就是这样做的。据[45]估计,仅一座桥的修理费就要20万英镑——当两个地方议会提供一半的资金时,英国国铁感到很欣喜并且十分惊讶。
