In reply to your letter of April 20,I would 31 to inform you that there are a number of beautiful summer houses for sale here in Ocean City.
For example, we have a modern two-storey house that is 32 up to date. It is two blocks from the sea and you may find that this is a disadvantage, but,_ 33 all, the opening of the summer season is only a few weeks from now, and finding a house 34 to the ocean than that is almost out of the question. The house I'm speaking of has two bedrooms and a porch(门廊)that can be 35 for sleeping. For this reason,I consider it as a very good buy. The kitchen is out of order at the 36 ,but this will be repaired, of course. The price is reasonable. As a matter of fact, the house costs less than comparable(同等的)houses elsewhere in town.
As a rule, I 37 to deal with people face to face in matters of this kind. However, I will be out of town next week, and I don't think you should delay in 38 your decision about this house, since it is sure to be sold quickly. Under the circumstances, therefore,I suggest that you come to see it as 39 as possible. You can talk to one of my assistants in the office. I'm sure you will find the house is 40 what you expect. Jason Riggs,Manager Ocean City Real Estate Company

B
Do you remember a time when people were a little nicer and gentler with each other? I certainly do. And I feel that much of the world has somehow gotten away from that. Too often I see people rushing into elevators without giving those inside a chance to get off first, or never saying \them. We get lazy and in our laziness we think that something like a simple \you\
The fact is that no matter how nicely we dress or how beautifully we decorate our homes, we can't be truly elegant(优雅的) without good manners, because elegance and good manners always go hand in hand. In fact, I think of good manners as a sort of hidden beauty secret. Haven't you noticed that the kindest, most generous people seem to keep getting prettier? It's funny how that happens, but it does. Take the long lost art of saying \hair is neat. Getting into the habit of saying \you\can make you feel better about yourself. Good manners add to your image, while an angry face makes the best dressed person look ugly. 47. What does the author say about people of the past? A. They were nicer and gentler.
B. They paid more attention to their appearance.
C. They were willing to spend more money on clothes. D, They were more aware of changes in fashion.
48. In the author's opinion, saying \ ▲ . A. doesn't really matter B. does matter a lot C. does not matter at all D. matters a little 49. The author thinks people seem to have forgotten ▲ .
A. the art of saying \ B. to wear a little make-up C. to make sure their hair is neat D. to decorate their houses 50. According to the author. how can we best improve our image?
A. By decorating our homes. B. By putting on a little make-up. C. By wearing fashionable clothes. D. By being kind and generous. 51. What is the passage mainly about? A. The art of dressing.
B. The secret of staying pretty.
C. The importance of good manners.
D. The difference between elegance and good manners. C
How long you live has a lot to do with your environment and lifestyle, but exceptional long life may have even more to do with your genes. For the first time, researchers have discovered a genetic recipe(墓因谱) that can tell who may live to 100 and beyond.
英语试卷第8页(共11页)
Detailed examination shows that 90% of the people who lived to 100 had at least
one of the signature genetic clusters(标志基因组). Dr. Thomas Perls at the School of Medicine of Boston University said, \realize that this is a complex genetic puzzle. There is a long way for us to go to understand how the combination of these genes with lifestyle factors is playing a role in this long life puzzle.\
Perls has studied many factors that help people to live long, and he is the first to recognize that living longer isn't likely to be simply a matter of genes. His previous work has shown, for example, that among mostly elderly people who live into their 70s and 80s, about 70% can owe their long life to lifestyle factors such as not smoking; eating a healthy, low-fat, low-calorie diet; and remaining socially engaged and mentally active (恩维活跃) throughout life.
It seems clear that those who live extremely long are benefiting from a special DNA. In fact, Perls believes that the older a person gets, the more likely it is that his or her genes are contributing to those extended years. 52. Perls may most likely agree that ▲
A. living longer just depends on certain genetic recipes
B. the combination of certain genes with lifestyle factors plays an important role in long-living
C. most people living extremely long benefit from not smoking D. being mentally active has nothing to do with living an old age 53. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A. Remaining socially engaged helps a person to live long. B. If you want to live to 100, you must have the right genes. C. A genetic recipe can predict who may live to 100 and beyond. D. Perls is the first to think living longer is just a matter of genes. 54. Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?
A. The Secret of Long life B. Diet and Smoking
C. Genes Decide Your Lifestyle D. Environment and Resources 55. Perls believes that ▲ .
A. they have understood how certain genes with lifestyle factors are playing a role in a long life
B. there is a long way for them to get to understand what leads to a long life C. they are close to the factors why people can live a long life D. they fail to understand what makes a long life possible
56. In which part of a newspaper can you most probably find this passage?
A. Sports and Games B.Entertainment and Economics C. Medicine and Science D. Culture and Custom
