18、. For this was what the notice just inside the entrance promised. It said: “Remember, once a week, one of our customers gets free goods. This May Be Your Lucky Day!“For several weeks Mrs. Edwards hoped, like many of her friends, to be the lucky customer. Unlike her friends, she never gave up hoping.
19、 The cupboards in kitchen were full of things which she did not need. Her husband tried to advise her against buying things but failed. She dreamed of the day when the manager of the supermarket would approach her and say: “ Madam, this is Your Lucky Day. Everything in your basket is free. “One Frid
20、ay morning, after she had finished her shopping and had taken it to her car, she found that she had forgotten to buy any tea. She dashed back to the supermarket, got the tea and went towards the cash -desk. As she did so, she saw the manager of the supermarket approach her. “Madam, “ he said, holdin
21、g out his hand, “ I want to congratulate you!

Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have all been told, and told
24、 again, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip.But for many people the thought of food first thing in the morning is by no means a pleasure. So despite all the efforts, they still take no breakfast. Between 1977 and 1983, the latest year for which figures are av
25、ailable, the number of people who didnt have breakfast, increased by 33 percent.For those who feel pain of guilt about not eating breakfast, however, there is some good news. Several studies in the last few years indicate that, for adults especially, there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfas
26、t. “Going without breakfast does not affect performance, “ said Arrold E. Bender, former professor of the nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London, “nor does giving people breakfast improve performance. “Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better performance is surprising
27、ly inadequate , and most of the recent work involves children, not adults, “The literature“ , says one researcher , Dr. Erresto at the University of Texas, “ is poor“.56 The latest year for which figures could be obtained is_.（A）the year the author wrote the article（B） 1977（C） any year between 1977
28、and 1983（D）198357 For those who do not take breakfast, the good news is that_.（A）several studies have been done in the past few years.（B） the omission of breakfast does no harm to ones health（C） adults have especially made studies in this field（D）eating little in the morning is good for health58 “no

31、 work at an institution of higher learning（C） not eating breakfast might affect the health of children（D）Professor Bender once taught college courses in nutrition in London60 Banks are not ordinarily prepared to pay out all accounts: they rely on depositors(储户 )not to demand payment all at the same
32、time. If depositors should come to fear that a bank is not safe, that it cannot pay off all its depositors, then that fear might cause all the depositors to appear on the same day. If they did, the bank could not pay all accounts. However, if they did not all appear at once, then there would always
33、be enough money to pay those who wanted their money when they wanted it. Mrs. Elsie Vaught has told us of a terrifying bank run that she experienced. One day in December of 1925 several banks failed to open in a city where Mrs. Vaught lived. The other banks expected a run the next day, and so the of
34、ficers of the bank in which Mrs. Vaught worked as a teller had enough money on hand to pay off their depositors. The officers simply told the tellers to pay on demand. The next morning a crowd gathered in the bank and on the sidewalk outside. The length of the line made many think that the bank coul
35、d not possibly pay off everyone. People began to push and then to fight for places near the tellers windows. The power of the panic atmosphere was such that two tellers, though they knew that the bank was quite all right and could pay all depositors, drew their own money from the bank. Mrs. Vaught s
36、ays that she had difficulty keeping herself from doing the same.61 A bank run happens when_.（A）a bank is closed for one or more days（B） too many depositors try to draw out their money at one time（C） there is not enough money to pay all its depositors at one time（D）tellers of a bank take their own mo
37、ney from the bank62 The tellers in Mrs. Vaughts bank were told to_.（A）explain why they could not pay out all accounts（B） pay out accounts as requested（C） make the depositors believe that the bank was sound（D）pay out money as slowly as possible63 The main cause of a bank run is_.（A）loss of confidence
38、（B） lack of money（C） crowds of people（D）inexperienced tellers64 Which of the following did Mrs. Vaught say?（A）She knew that the bank was not sound.（B） She feared that too many depositors drawing their money would close the bank.（C） She was not able to draw out her money（D）She was tempted to draw out
39、 her money65 According to the passage, the actions of the depositors of Mrs. Vaughts bank were affected mainly by the_.（A）ease with which they could get their money（B） confidence that Mrs. Vaught showed（C） failure of several other banks to open（D）confidence shown by other depositors of the bank65 Th
40、e energy which the sun radiates goes in every direction , and only a minute part of it falls on the earth. Even so, it represents power of about 5 , 000, 000 horsepower(马力)per square mile per day: the sun gives us as much energy every minute as mankind utilizes in a year. At present, we use this ene
41、rgy indirectly, and it is our final source of power. Coal represents the chemical action of the sun on green plants thousands of years ago. Waterpower results from the rain formed by vapor which comes from the evaporation of water under the sunshine. Even windmills operate because of air currents se
42、t in motion by the different heating effects of the sun in different places. Some day, through chemistry or some type of solar engine, we shall harness this great source of energy more directly. Already a scientist has worked out an engine, surprisingly efficient, in which the suns rays are concentr
43、ated through mirrors on a tube of water to create steam.66 How much energy given off by the sun reaches the earth?（A）100% but indirectly（B） 5%（C） 0.5（D）only a very tiny amount67 The reason why all the solar energy falling on the earth cant be utilized is that_.（A）only a very small part is available（
44、B） the sun is too distant from the earth（C） it takes thousands of years for this energy to be stored up in coal and oil（D）our scientific knowledge is not sufficient68 Which of the following statements is NOT true?（A）Even windmills action depends on the sun.（B） The sun produces enormous energy for ma
45、n to make use of（C） Some day man will be able to utilize 100% of the solar energy that gets to the earth.（D）The sun produces different heating effects in different places.69 In order to support this argument, the writer gives the example that_.（A）a machine using solar energy efficiently has already
46、been developed（B） the sun is our final source of power（C） man uses only a tiny part of the suns energy（D）the part of the suns energy we use is used indirectly70 This passage centers mainly on_.（A）harnessing energy through chemistry（B） our last source of power（C） how water power is produced（D）the amo
47、unt of solar energy that can be utilized五、Cloze70 From childhood to old age, we all use language as a means of broadening our knowledge of ourselves and the world about us.
