Some time ago I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg. I didn't think there would be any difficulty in getting it mended, as there are a lot of antique (古董) shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception. I was quite wrong. The man wouldn't even look at my chair.
The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and the fourth - so I decided that my approach must be wrong. I entered the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper, "Would you like to buy a chair?" "Twenty pounds," I said. "OK,"he said. "I'll give you twenty pounds." "It's got a slightly broken leg," I said. "Yes, I saw that. It's nothing." Everything was going according to the plan and I was getting excited. "What will you do with it?" I asked. "Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done. " "I'll buy it," I said. "What do you mean? You've just sold it to me," he said. "Yes, I know but I've changed my mind. I am sorry. I'll give you twenty-seven pounds for it." " You must be crazy," he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped. "I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair." "You're right," I said. "And what would you have done if I had walked in and said, 'Would you mend this chair for me?'" "I wouldn't have agreed to do it," he said. "We don't do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But l'll mend this for you. Shall we say for five pounds?"
He was a very nice man and was greatly amused by the whole thing.

閱讀下列四篇短文,從每小題后所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中,選出最佳選項,并在答題卡上將該選項涂黑。
People think being an artist must be a wonderful way to earn one’s living. And of course, there are lots of great things about working for oneself, at home alone, even in a cold studio like mine. What I really like is that nobody tells me what time to start in the morning. I like to paint as soon as I wake up, which is always early, but isn’t the same time every day. And nobody tells me what to wear or whether I can take the afternoon off and go to a football match.
But then, I have no one to chat with when I’m bored, no one to discuss last night’s match with during the office lunch hour. Sure, I can spend the afternoon doing something I enjoy like cycling or gardening if I choose. But the work will still be there when I do finally get back home.
Unfortunately, working at home means that people can always find me, whether I’m bored or not, and once I’ve answered the doorbell, it’s too late — my thoughts have been interrupted. No one would dream of calling in if I worked in an office, but I find myself listening to friends’ troubles. As they talk, my ideas disappear and I feel increasingly stressed thinking of my work waiting to be done.
However, when I hear the traffic news on the radio, and imagine my friends sitting miserably in their cars in a jam, feeling bored, or waiting unhappily for an overcrowded train in the rain, I realize that I really haven’t got much to complain about. I find a CD which will start me thinking, turn it up really loudly and begin another picture.
1. In the passage the writer is trying to ________.
A. encourage readers to work at home
B. explain why he decides to be an artist
C. describe his working life
D. show how he begins a picture
2.What does the writer like about his working life?
A. He has plenty of opportunities for sport.
B. He can do things without being told by others.
C. He needn’t work in the morning.
D. He has a comfortable place to work in.
3.The writer plays loud music because ________.
A. the traffic outside is noisy
B. it helps him to have ideas
C. it prevents him from feeling bored
D. he doesn’t want to hear the doorbell
4.Which of these notices would be the most useful for the writer to put on his door?
A. I’m working — please don’t disturb.
B. Please knock before entering.
C. I’m listening to music — join me.
D. Come in and have a chat.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項,選項中有兩項為多余選項。
Home on the Way
People need homes. Children assume their parents’ place as home. Boarders call school “home” on weekdays. Married couples work together to build new homes and travelers have no place to call “home”, at least for a few nights. 1.? Don’t they have the right to a home? Of course they do.
Some regular travelers take their own belongings like bed sheets, pillowcases and family photos to make them feel like home no matter where they are. Some stay for long periods in the same hotel and as a result become very familiar with service and attendants. 2. .Furthermore, driving a camping car during one’s travels and sleeping in the vehicle at night is just like home—only mobile!
And how about keeping relationships while in transit(運輸中)? 3.. Some send letters and postcards, or even photos. Others may just call and say Hi just to let their friends know that they’re still alive and well. People find ways to keep in touch. Making friends on the way helps travelers feel more or less at home. 4..
Nowadays, fewer people are working in their local towns, so how do they develop a sense of belonging? Whenever we step out of our local boundaries, there is always another “home” waiting to be found. 5. , we can make the place we stay “home”.
A. Hostels(招待所) provide a clean safe place to stay while you are travelling the world
B. Others may simply put some flowers by the hotel window to make things more homely
C. Backpackers in youth hostels may become very good friends,even closer than siblings(手足)
D. So how about people who have to travel for extended periods of time
E. No matter where you go in the world,hotels are there,too
F. Some keep contact with their friends via Internet
G. Wherever we are,with just a little bit of effort and imagination
