13、e he needs something. His purpose is settled and decided in advance. He knows what he wants, and his objective is to find it and buy it; the price is a secondary consideration.

15、ly what he wants. In that case the salesman, as the name implies, tries to sell the customer something else-he offers the nearest he can to the article required. No good salesman brings out such a substitute bluntly; he does so with skill and polish. I know this jacket is not the style you want, sir

16、, but would you like to try it for size? It happens to be the color you mentioned. Few men have patience with this treatment, and the usual response is: This is the right color and may be the right size, but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on. Now how does a woman go about buying

17、clothes? In almost every respect she does so in the opposite way.Her shopping is not often based on need. She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is onlyhaving a look around. She is always open to persuasion; indeed she sets great store by what the saleswoman tells her, even by

18、what companions tell her. She will try on any number of things. Uppermost in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Contrary to a lot of jokes, most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes. They are always on the look-out for the unexpected

19、bargain. Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one rail to another, to and fro, often retracing her steps,before selecting the dresses she wants to try on.

24、Passage One【參考譯文】人們對于休閑娛樂的品位大相徑庭。在英國懷特島最近舉辦的一次流行音樂節(jié)上，青少年們 成群結(jié)隊地去聽他們最喜愛的歌手和音樂家演唱。56他們只買得起去音樂節(jié)的單程火車票，甚至不惜露宿街頭，在英國那種氣候條件下，即便是在八月份，他 們的這種行為也是非常危險的。他們像沙丁魚一樣在音樂節(jié)上擠了四天。音樂節(jié)現(xiàn)場有數(shù)不清的盜賊，一伙暴徒幾次三番試圖搗亂，而且到處都是警察。57音 樂節(jié)結(jié)束后，許多年輕歌迷發(fā)現(xiàn)自己身無分文，想要回家都很困難。大多數(shù)人都會認為這種情形簡直像噩夢一樣叫人不爽，但是歌迷們似乎仍樂在其中。 58即便是在英國這樣擁擠的國家，也有一大片一大片未遭破壞的鄉(xiāng)村地

25、區(qū)，在那里，有著更多傳統(tǒng)品位的人們可以尋求安靜以及他們在同大自然接觸過程中 產(chǎn)生的自由感。特別是在國家級公園所在的地區(qū)，房產(chǎn)和工業(yè)的現(xiàn)代發(fā)展受到嚴格限制。游客可以步行幾英里，游覽極度迷人而又十分原始的風景，以及大量歷史和 科學景點。59一些海濱縣城修建了公路；這些公路沿著懸崖峭壁一直延伸，而這些峭壁則緊挨著大西洋或英吉利海峽。在內(nèi)陸還有另一條公路，沿國北部的山 脈修成，被稱作奔寧公路。在這里，遠途旅行者和熱愛大自然的人能夠收獲不少樂趣一而不會有被大批其他游人打攪的感覺。國家級公園是為造福公眾 而修建的，然而，很少有人能夠充分利用這一資源。60現(xiàn)下最為常見的事情就是，全家人一起開車去一個美麗的景

26、點，將車停在路邊的停車帶。他們?nèi)安?籃、折疊式桌椅、一把水壺和一臺便攜式火爐，然后在自己車的附近安頓下來，開始一頓野餐。顯然，他們對娛樂的觀點是呼吸新鮮空氣，身處鄉(xiāng)間，不用行走一步 就能欣賞美景，聽聞鄉(xiāng)村之聲。他們似乎很喜歡用耳朵和鼻子去感受鄉(xiāng)問的車馬交通。56C定位：根據(jù)題干信息詞risky可將答案定位到第一段第三句。解析：該句提到：“他們(青少年們)只買得起去音樂節(jié)的單程火車票，甚至不惜露宿街頭，在英國那種氣候條件下，即便是在八月份，他們的這種行為也是非常危險的。”故選C。57D定位：根據(jù)題干信息atthe end ofthefestival可將答案定位到第一段倒數(shù)第二句。解析：該句提

27、到：“音樂節(jié)結(jié)束后，許多年輕歌迷發(fā)現(xiàn)自己身無分文，想要回家都很困難?！惫蔬xD。became quite penniless即意為“身無分文”，是對broke和with no money left的同義轉(zhuǎn)述。58C定位：根據(jù)題干信息even in the overcrowded United Kingdom可將答案定位到第二段第一句。解 析：原文提到：“Even in the overcrowded United Kingdom there are large tracts of open Hrlspoilt country(即便是在英國這樣擁擠的國家，也有一大片一大片未遭破壞的鄉(xiāng)村地區(qū))”選項

28、C中的not developed是原文中tinspoilt的同義轉(zhuǎn)述，故為正確答案。59B定位：根據(jù)題干信息public pathways可將答案定位到第二段第四句。解析：原文提到，一些海濱縣城修建了公路，在內(nèi)陸，沿英國北部的山脈也有一條公路。遠途旅行者和熱愛大自然的人能夠收獲不少樂趣，而且不會有被大批其他游人打攪的感覺。可見，開辟公路就是為了讓人們能夠享受遠足，享受自然，故選B。60A定位：根據(jù)題干信息family groups nowadays可將答案定位到第三段第二句。解析：原文提到，現(xiàn)下最為常見的事情就是，全家人一起開車去一個美麗的景點，將車停在路邊的停車帶。然后他們就拿出準備好的各種

29、工具和食物在自己的汽車旁野餐，故選A。Passage Two【參考譯文】買衣服對男人和女人來說是不同的經(jīng)歷。61男人去購物是因為他需要某些東西。他的 目的是既定的，而且提前就做好了決定。他知道自己需要什么，而他的目的就是找到那個東西并買下來，價格倒在其次。65男人都是直接走進商店，詢問店員 自己想要買的東西。如果店里有貨，銷售員能及時找到，而且馬上就能試穿或試用，這一切順利的話，整個交易一般在五分鐘之內(nèi)就可以完成。雖然幾乎沒什么言語 交談，但是買賣雙方各自都滿意。62對于男人來說，如果商店沒有他想買的東西或者羞不完全符合他心里的條件，可能會引發(fā)一些小問題。在那 種情況下，導購就要像自己的職業(yè)名

30、稱(導“購”)所暗示的那樣，嘗試賣給顧客別的東西：他把跟顧客要求最接近的東西推薦給他。優(yōu)秀的導購都不會貿(mào)然向顧客 推薦替代品，他會花一番心思和技巧。比如，他會說：“先生，我知道這件上衣不是您想要的樣式，但您能否試一下，看看大小合不合適。它的顏色剛好符合您的要 求?！?3對于這種情況，男人很少會買賬，他們一般都會說：“也許衣服的顏色和大小都合適，但要是讓我試穿的話：既浪費了你的時間，也浪費了我的。” 現(xiàn)在來看一下女人買衣服的過程是怎樣的呢?每個環(huán)節(jié)差不多都和男人相反。女人購物通常都不是因為有什么需求。她從來都沒完全決定自己想要買什么，只是 “四處看看”。64女人總是肯聽他人的勸說，她重視女店員的話，甚至是同伴的話。她會什么都試窒一下。在她內(nèi)心深處，她要找的衣服，是所查人都認為適 合她的。與很多笑話里講的不同，很多女人在買衣服的時候還是精打細算的。她們總是在尋找意外的超值商品。65面對一屋子衣服，她們也許很容易就花上一 個小時，一排排瀏覽，來來回回樂此不疲；她們會不時地折返腳步，直到發(fā)現(xiàn)自己想試穿的衣服。這是個累人的過程，但是很顯然，她們很享受這個過程。因此大部 分服裝店都為那些等待的丈夫提供座
