I fell in love with England because it was quaint (古雅)―all those little houses, looking terri­bly old-fashioned but nice, like dolls’ houses. I loved the countryside and the pubs, and I loved London. I’ve slightly changed my mind after seventeen years because I think it’s an ugly town now.

Things have changed. For everybody, England meant gentlemen, fair play, and good man­ners. The fair play is going, unfortunately, and so are the gentlemanly attitudes and good man­ners―people shut doors heavily in your face and politeness is disappearing.

I regret that there are so few comfortable meeting places. You’re forced to live indoors. In Paris I go out much more, to restaurants and nightclubs. To meet friends here it usually has to be in a pub, and it can be difficult to go there alone as a woman. The cafes are not terribly nice.

As a woman, I feel unsafe here. I spend a bomb on taxis because I will not take public trans­port after 10 p. m. I used to use it, but now I’m afraid.

The idea of family seems to be more or less non-existent in England. My family is well united and that’s typically French. In Middlesex I had a neighbour who is 82 now. His family only lived two miles away, but I took him to France for Christmas once because he was always alone.

56. The writer doesn’t like London because she ______.

   A. is not used to the life there now

   B. has lived there for seventeen years

   C. prefers to live in an old-fashioned house

   D. has to be polite to everyone she meets there

57. Where do people usually meet their friends in England?

   A. In a cafe.       B. In a restaurant.          C. In a nightclub.        D. In a pub.

58. The underlined part “it” (in Para. 4) refers to______.

   A. a taxi             B. the money                  C. a bomb                 D. public transport

59. The writer took her neighbour to France for Christmas because he ______.

A. felt lonely in England  B. had never been to France

C. was from a typical French family              D. didn't like the British idea of family

Glynis Davis:

I first piled on the pounds when I was in the family way and I couldn’t lose them afterwards. Then I joined a slimming club. My target was 140 pounds and I lost 30 pounds in six months. I felt great and people kept saying how good I looked. But Christmas came and I started to slip back into my old eating habits. I told myself I’d lose the weight at slimming classes in the new year… but it didn’t happen. Instead of losing the pounds, I put them on. I’d lost willpower and tried to believe that the old bag of fish and chips didn’t make any difference — but the scales don’t lie.

Roz Juma:

To be honest, I never weigh myself any more. I’ve learnt to be happy with myself. It seemed to me that I would feel sorry about every spoonful of tasty food that passed my lips. My idea is simple. You shouldn’t be too much thinking about food and dieting. Instead, you should get on with life and stop dreaming of a super thin body. This is obviously the size I’m meant to be and, most of all, I’m happy with it.

Lesley Codwin:

I was very happy at winning Young Slimmer of the year. I’d look in the mirror unable to believe this slim lady was me! That might have been my problem — perhaps from then on I didn’t pay any attention to myself. Winning a national competition makes everything worse, though. Because you feel the eyes of the world are fixed upon you. I feel a complete failure because I’ve put on weight again.

Ros Langfod:

Before moving in with my husband Gavin, I’d always been about 110 pounds, but the pleasant housework went straight to my waist and I put on 15 pounds in a year. Every so often I try to go on a diet… I’m really good in a few days, then end up having the children’s leftovers or eating happily chocolate — my weakness. I’d like to be slim, but right now my duty is the children and home. I might take more exercise when my kids are older.

1.What do you think the four women were talking about?

A．Different diets they prefer.

B．Their life after marriage.

C．Tex books for students.

D．Their own slimming matter.

2.Where are these short passages most likely to be taken from?

A．Talks on the air.

B．Advertisements on the wall.

C．Books in a library.

D．Magazines for children.

3.What does the underlined word “scales” possibly mean?

A．The coach in the slimming club.

B．Some tool to measure weight.

C．Glynis Davis’ dear husband.

D．The salesperson in a food shop.

4.Which of the following best describes each of the four women’s attitudes towards slimming?

① Glynis Davis        a. I put on weight soon after I got married.

② Roz Juma            b. Frame doesn’t necessarily mean success.

③ Lesley Codwin       c. Facts speak much louder than words.

④ Ros Langfod         d. I like myself as I am, and to be what you are.

A．①-a; ②-d; ③-b; ④-c                   B．①-c; ②-b; ③-d; ④-a

C．①-c; ②-d; ③-b; ④-a                   D．①-a; ②-b; ③-c; ④-d
