Like many lovers of books, Mary and her husband, Richard Goldman, seldom walked past a bookstore without stopping to look inside. They often talked of opening their own store one day.
When Mary was in hospital with heart trouble in 1989, they decided it was time to get serious. Richard, who worked for a business company, wanted to work for himself, and Mary needed to slow down from her  job.
They started by talking to bookstore owners and researching(調(diào)查) the industry. “We knew it had to be a specialty store because we couldn’t match the big chains dollar for dollar,” says Mary. One figure caught her attention: She’d read somewhere that roughly 20 percent of books sold were mysteries(推理小說), and many buyers spent more than $300 a year on books. She and Richard were themselves mystery readers.
On Halloween 1992, they opened the Mystery Lovers Bookshop and Café near their home. With three children in college, the couple could not spend all the family’s money to start a shop. To cover the whole  $ 100, 000 cost, they drew some of their savings, borrowed from relatives and from a bank.
The store broke even in its first year, with only $ 120,000 in sales. But Mary was always coming up with new ways to attract customers. The shop had a coffee bar and it offered gifts to mystery lovers and served dinners for book clubs that met in the store. She also invited dozens of writers to discuss their stories.
Today Mystery Lovers makes sales of about $ 420,000 a year. After paying taxes, business costs and the six part-time sales clerks, Richard and Mary together earn about $ 34,000.
“The job you love may not go hand in hand with a million-dollar income,” says Richard. “This has always been about an enjoyable life for ourselves, not about making a lot of money.”
小題1: After Mary got well from her illness they began _________.
A．to study industrial management (工業(yè)管理)
B．to buy and read more mystery books
C．to do market research on book business
D．to work harder to save money for the bookstore
小題2: How did their bookstore do in the first year?
A．They had to borrow money to keep it going.
B．They made just enough to cover all the costs.
C．They succeeded in earning a lot of money.
D．They failed though they worked hard.
小題3:According to Richard, the main purpose(目的) of running the bookstore is _________.
A．to pay for children’s education
B．to get to know more writers
C．to set up more bookstores
D．to do what they like to do

Clothes are very important in our life. Different people wear different clothes. Now let’s listen to some people in France talking about clothes.
Hello, I’m Betty. I started working this year, so I’m able to get new clothes more often than before. I think what I look like is really important to me, so I spent much money on clothes.

I change the look of my clothes quite often — put some flowers on them or use different buttons, just for a change. They’ll look good all the time. I go shopping for clothes about once a month. I see something comfortable and fashionable and it fits me well, I would go for it and then…

 “BANG!” the door caused a reverberation (回聲). It was just standing there, with father standing on one side, and I was on the other side. We were both in great anger. “Never set foot in this house again!” stormed father. I rushed out of the flat and ran along the street. The street lights were shining, causing rather a sad feeling.
A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me. I felt as if I saw my childhood from another space: happy and carefree. But now … I don’t know whether it is because I have grown up or because dad is getting old. We differ in our ways of thinking. He always put his opinions and codes of behavior on me. Whenever I do something wrong, he never admits it. We are just like two people coming from two different worlds. I wandered in the streets, until I had only the street lights to keep me company. When I finally reached the high-rise apartment block in which I lived ,I saw that the light was still on.
I thought to myself: “Is father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me?”
All the lights were off except father’s. Dad was always like this. Maybe he didn’t know how to express himself. After an argument he has the habit of creeping up(悄悄地來到) in my sleep. This was how he always was．He has been a leader for so long that telling everyone else what to do has become his second nature. With the key in hand, I was as nervous as I had ever been. At last, I decided to open the door. As soon as I opened the door tears ran down my cheeks. I suddenly realized that the iron(鐵的) door that I had imagined between us did not exist at all. Love—it’s second to none. 
小題1:Decide which is the best order of the following according to what happened in the passage.
a. I opened the door and entered the house.
b. Sadly I ran out into the street.
c. I reached the place where I lived and saw my house still brightly lit.
d. I thought of my father’s kindness towards me.
e. I walked about in the street without any aim.
A．b, e, d, c, aB．b, e, c, d, aC．b, e, a, c, dD．b, e, c, a, d
小題2:What made the writer think of his childhood ?
A．The sight of the street lights.
B．The sight of the empty street.
C．The sight of a father with a child in his arms.
D．The sight of light in his own house.
小題3: Why do you think the father often shouts at his son?
A．perhaps the father is getting older and older.
B．perhaps the son has already grown up.
C．perhaps they never agree with each other.
D．perhaps the father has got used to doing that.
小題4: According to the passage what does “Love—it’s second to none” mean ?
A．愛并沒有什么B．愛是第二位的
C．愛是至高無上的D．愛就是沒什么
小題5:What conclusion can you come to after reading the passage?
A．The father treats his son in an unfair way.
B．The father is actually kind to his son.
C．The father is neither kind nor cruel to his son.
D．The father is always finding fault with his son.
