I had cabled London from Amsterdam, and there was a hired car to meet, but there was one mor
30、e unfortunate happening before I reached my fiat. In all my travels I have never, but for that once, been required by the British customs to open a single bag or to do more than state that I carried no goods liable to duty. It was, of course, my fault; the extreme tiredness and nervous tension of th
31、e journey had destroyed my diplomacy. I was, for whichever reason, so tired that I could hardly stand, and to the question, “have you read this?“ I replied with extreme foolishness, “Yes, hundreds of times. “And you have nothing to declare?“Nothing. “How long have you been out of this country?“About
32、 three months. “And during that time you have acquired nothing?“Nothing but what is on the list I have given you. “He seemed momentarily at a loss, but then he attacked. The attack, when it came, was utterly unexpected.“Where did you get that watch?“I could have kicked myself. Two days ago, when pla
33、ying water games with a friend in the bath, I had forgotten to take off my ROLEX OYSTER, and it had, not unnaturally, stopped. I had gone into the market and bought, for twelve shillings and six pence, an ugly time piece that made a strange noise. It had stopped twice, without any reason, during the
34、 journey.I explained, but I had already lost face. I produced my own watch from a pocket, and added that I should be grateful if he would confiscate the replacement.“It is not a question of confiscation,“ he said, “there is a fine for failing to declare dutiable goods. And now may I please examine t
35、hat Rolex?“It took another quarter of an hour to persuade him that the Rolex was not contraband; then he began to search my luggage.（分数：10.00）(1).When did the writer arrive at London airport? A.

Matter-of-fact.（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.八、BText 2/B(总题数：1，分数：10.00)You must have been troubled by when to say “I love you“ because it is one of the greatest puzzles in our life.What if you say it first and your partner doesnt love you back? Or if they do say it b
40、ut you dont feel they mean it? Being the first to declare your love can be nerve-racking(紧张) and risky and can leave you feeling as vulnerable as a turtle with no shell. But is the person who says it first really in a position of weakness? Doesnt it pay to hold back, play it cool and wait until the
41、other half has shown their hand first?“A really good relationship should be about being fair and being equal,“ says psychologist Sidney Crown. “But love is seldom equal. “ All relationships go through power struggles but, he says, if a love imbalance continues for years, the rot will set in. “That f
42、eeling of Ive always loved you more may be subverted(颠覆, 破坏) for a time, but it never goes away completely and it often emerges in squabbling(大声争吵). “ In love, at least, the silent, withholding type is not always the most powerful. “The strongest one in a relationship is often the person who feels c
43、onfident enough to talk about their feelings,“ says educational psychologist Ingrid Collins. Psychosexual therapist Paula Hall agrees. “The one with the upper hand is often the person who takes the initiative. In fact, the person who says I love you first may also be the one who says Im bored with y
44、ou first. “ Hall believes that much depends on how “I love you“ is said and the motivation of the person saying it. “Is it said when theyre drunk? Is it said before their partner flies off on holiday, and what it really means is Please dont be unfaithful to me? By saying I love you, they really sayi
45、ng Do you love me? If so, wouldnt it just be more honest to say that?“ Collins agrees that intention is everything. “Its not what is said, but how its said. What it comes down to is the sincerity of the speaker. “（分数：10.00）(1).What is the main idea of this passage? A. The importance of “I love you“.
