A
Which gender is the most talkative? No matter what you answer, you are partially right.
A recent Gallup Poll showthat both man and women believe that women possess the gift of talking and some even believe women are biologically built for conversation, but all of this is challenged in research published in the November issue of “Personality and Social Psychology Review〞.
In recent research by Campbell Leaper and Melanie Ayres, they collected all of the available evidence from decades of scientific study and systematically combined the findings into an overall picture of the differences between men and women regarding talkativeness.
They found a small but reliable tendency for men to be more talkative than women in certain cases, such as when they were conversing with their wives or with strangers. Women talked more to their children and to their college classmates.
The type of speech was also explored in the research. The researchers discovered that, with strangers, women were generally more talkative when it came to using speech to ensure her connection to the listener, while men’s speech focused more on an attempt to influence the listener. With close friends and family, however, there was very little difference between genders in the amount of speech.

Local businessmen are increasingly facing competition from on line retailers. Larry Pollock, owner of Camera Co/Op on South Congress, said he has been dealing with this kind of problem for years, even before the Internet. The struggle began with mail-order catalogues, which are similar to online retailers in that they have few employees to pay, no sales tax fees and no business venue to lease and manage.
“Their overhead is lower, but they don’t offer a service like we do,〞 Pollock said.
Pollock, however, said providing a valuable service to customers does not always guarantee continued sales.
“We spend 30 minutes to an hour with somebody and they go home and buy it online,〞 he said.
According to the state comptroller’s office, online shopping is developing at a more rapid rate than traditional businesses.
In spite of how fair or unfair online shopping may be to the local businessmen, consumers will continue to turn to the Internet for its variety and accessibility, said Mitch Wilson, an online shopper. “You have a larger selection and it’s easier
to compare prices.〞
Wilson said he built his personal computer and paid a third of the price by shopping online.
“Before the Internet, I would have had to go and buy an assembled computer from somebody like Dell,〞 he said. “Before I started shopping online I could never find all the pieces I wanted. No single store had everything needed, so shopping online saved me from having to buy from Dell.〞
Janny Brazeal, a psychology freshman, said online shopping is too impersonal.
“I’d rather see it in person, touch it, know that I’m getting it,〞 she said.
Brazeal also said she would not give out her credit card number or other personal information online no matter how safe the site claims it is.
51. Larry Pollock has been facing the problem __________.
A. before long
B. after the Internet
C. since there were mail-order catalogues
D. since he worked as a businessman
52. According to the passage, which of the following is wrong?
A. Traditionalbusiness can provide valuable services to customers
B. People can get cheaper goods from traditional business
C. More and more people will turn to the Internet for their needs
D. There are still many people who don’t like on-line shopping
53. More people like online shopping because _________.
A. the consumers can easily compare a variety of goods on line
B. it’s easy for consumers to get what they want
C. it’s cheaper to buy what they need from on-line retailers
D. all above
54. Mitch Wilson prefers to build his personal computer by shopping on line because _________.
A. he can easily get what he needs at a lower price
B. he can not get the price at traditional businessman
C. he is not satisfied with the service of local businessman
D. the quality of Dell is not satisfying
55. Why doesn’t Jenny Brazeal like to buy things on line?
A. She is not sure about the quality of the goods on line
B. She doesn’t like to give her personal information to others
C. She can’t use the computer
D. She doesn’t know what she is going to buy

Kincaid looked at his watch: eight-seventeen. The truck started on the second try, and he backed out, shifted gears, and moved slowly down the alley under hazy sun. Through the streets of Bellingham he went, heading south on Washington 11, running along the coast of Puget Sound for a few miles, then following the highway as it swung east a little before meeting U.S Route 20.
Turning into the sun, he began the long, winding drive through the Cascades. He liked this country and felt unpressed stopping now and then to make notes about interesting possibilities for future expeditions or to shoot what he called “memory snapshots.〞 The purpose of these causal photographs was to remind him of places he might want to visit again and approach more seriously. In later afternoon he turned north at Spokane, picking up U.S Route 2, which would take him halfway across the northern United States to Duluth, Minnesota.
He wished for the thousandth time in his life that he had a dog, a golden retriever, maybe, for travels like this and to keep him company at home. But he was frequently away; overseas much of the time and it would not be fair to the animal. Still, he thought about it anyway. In a few years he would be getting too old for the hard fieldwork. “I must get a dog then.〞 He said to himself.
Drives like this always put him into a sentimental mood. The dog was part of it. Robert Kincaid was alone as it’s possible to be –an only child, parents both dead, distant relatives who had lost track of him and he of them, no close friends.
He thought about Marian. She had left him nine years ago after five years of marriage. He was fifty–two now, that would make her just under forty. Marian had dreams of becoming a musician, a folksing er. She knew all of the Weavers’ songs and sang them pretty well in the coffeehouse of Seattle. When he was home in the old days, he drove her to the shows and sat in the audience while she sang.
His long absences –two or three months sometimes –were hard on the marriage. He knew that. She was aware of what he did when they decided to get married, and both of them had a vague (not clear) sense that it could all be handled somehow. It couldn’t when he came from photographing a story in Iceland and, she was gone. The note read, “Robert, it didn’t work out, I left you the Harmony guitar. Stay in touch.〞
He didn’t stay in touch. Neither did she. He signed the divorce papers when they arrived a year later and caught a plane for Australia the next day. She had asked for nothing except her freedom.
56. Which route is the right one taken by Kincaid?
A. Bellingham –Washington 11 –Puget Sound –U.S Route20 –U.S Route 2 –Duluth
B. U.S. Route 2 –Bellingham – Washington 11 – Puget Sound –U.S Route 20 –Duluth
C. U.S. Route2 –U.S Route 20 – Duluth–Bellingham – Washington 11
D. Bellingham – Washington 11 –U.S. Route 2 –U.S Route 20 –Duluth
57. Which statement is true according to the passage?
A. Kincaid’s parents were dead and he only kept in touch with some distant relatives.
B. Kincaid would have had a dog if he hadn’t been away from home too much.
C. Kincaid used to have a golden retriever.
D. Kincaid needed a dog in doing his hard fieldwork.
58. Why did Kincaid stop to take photos while driving?
A. To write “memory sna pshots〞.
B. To remind himself of places he might want to visit again.
C. To avoid forgetting the way back.
D. To shoot beautiful scenery along the road.
59. What can you know about Marian?
A. She died after five years of marriage.
B. She was older than Kincaid.
C. She could sing very well and earned big money.
D. She was not a professional pop singer.
60. We can draw a conclusion from the passage that _____
A. Marian knew what would happen before she married Kincaid.
B. Kincaid thought his absence would be a problem when he married Marian.
C. It turned out that Marian could not stand Kincaid’s absence and left him.
D. After Marian left him, they still kept in touch with each other.

Down-to-earth Work Leads To Success
From the lines of Manish Wilson, we can conclude every success and great work that people have achieved consist in every little work done step by step and every small progress made little by little.
It is common knowledge that all the people are eager to be successful, but how can we achieve success? I think only by working hard step by step and persistently can we succeed at last.
As a proverb goes, “Rome wasn’t built in a day.〞 Success needs us to be patient, do every little thing and make every little progress. No one can be successful overnight without working step by step.
As we know, the great scientist Edison's most famous invention was the light bulb, which brought the brightness to the world in the dark nights. His success results from his down-to –earth work of 40,000 pages’ notes of research and thousands of times testing on 1600 materials for the right filament. Undoubtedly, Edison’s great success contributes to his patience, good work done little by little. So we should remember: A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Work hard and consistently, and you will succeed eventually.。
