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 whole 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 (接待). I was quite wrong. Then 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 went into 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?” He looked it over carefully and said, “Yes, not a bad chair. How much do you want for it, sir?” “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 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’m 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 I’ll mend this for you, shall we say for a fiver?” He was a very nice man and was greatly amused (感到有趣) by the whole thing.

S.H.E. is going to sing at the CCTV annual Spring Festival Evening Party, is that true? cried out Peng Weiye, a Senior 2 girl in Shanghai and die–hard（铁杆的）S.H.E. fan.

After checking it on the Internet, Peng quickly phoned friends to spread the news. For fans like her, S.H.E’s performance is perhaps the only part of the old fashioned evening to get excited about.

The Taiwanese band is made up of Selina, Hebe and Ella. Their name comes from the first letter of each of the singers’ English names.

Last week S. H. E. announced they will perform in Las Vegas, US, over Christmas and then in Guangzhou on January 15.

At their Shanghai show on October 30, hundreds of parents waited outside the Hongkou Stadium. Inside, thousands of teenagers sang, cried and shouted as the band performed.

“I love their music, healthy image and everything related to them. Thank God that, although my parents don’t understand why I love them so much, they still bought me a ticket for that show,” said Peng about the Shanghai performance.

It is not just on the mainland that the three girls have thrilled (make sb. excited) audiences. In the past year the band has passed through Taiwan, Hong Kong and even Singapore and Malaysia.

When the three high school girls entered a singing contest in Taiwan in 2000, none of them ever dreamed of being a superstar. “We had never met before, and we didn’t talk at all at the beginning,” recalled Ella.

When asked about the secret of their success, she said, “Our average looks and not-so-expensive clothes keep us close to our fans. We are happy to be the girl next door, your singing sisters.”

“It’s really a magical journey, from day-dreaming high school girls to singers performing on the same stage as our idols. Nothing but magical,” she said.

70. What makes Peng Weiye, a senior 2 girl, so excited?

A. She is the one who will be met by S.H.E.

B. S.H.E. will perform in Las Vegas over Christmas.

C. Her parents bought her a ticket for S. H. E. ‘s Shanghai show.

D. S. H. E. will perform on the annual CCTV Spring Festival Evening.

71. How did the Taiwanese band get the name?

A.Their fans gave the name to them.

B. Their idols had a deep influence on them.

C. A singing contest gave their idea of the band name.

D. The first letter of each of the singers’ English names.

72. What do you know about Peng Weiye?

A. She stayed outside the Hongkou Stadium to listen to S. H. E.

B. She will watch the performance in Guangzhou on January 15.

C. She pays close attention to everything about S. H. E.

D. She appreciates that her parents understood her well.

73. Which is true about S. H. E. ?

B. They have well prepared to perform with their idols.

C. They were close friends when they entered a singing contest.

D. Their secret to success is the pretty faces and expensive clothes.
