A

Every year on my birthday, from the time I turned 12, a white gardenia was delivered to my house. No card came with it. Calls to the flower-shop were not helpful at all. After a while I stopped trying to discover the sender' s name and just delighted in the beautiful white flower in soft pink paper.

But I never stopped imagining who the giver might be. Some of my happiest moments were spent daydreaming about the sender. My mother encouraged these imaginings. She'd ask me if there was someone for whom I had done special kindness. Perhaps it was the old man across the street whose mail I' d delivered during the winter. As a girl, I had more fun imagining that it might be a boy I had run into.

One month before my graduation, my father died. I felt so sad and that I became completely uninterested in my upcoming graduation dance, and I didn't care if I had a new dress or not. But my mother, in her own sadness, would not let me miss any of those things. She wanted her children to feel loved and lovable. In truth, my mother wanted her children to see themselves much like the gardenia lovely, strong and perfect with perhaps a bit of mystery(神秘).

My mother died ten days after I was married. I was 22. That was the year the gardenia stopped coming.

The days of elderly women doing nothing but cooking meals on holidays are gone. Enter the Red Hat Society — a group holding the belief that old ladies should have fun.

"My grandmothers didn't do anything but keep house and serve everybody. They were programmed to do that," said Emils Comette, head of a chapter of the 7-year-old Red Hat Society.

While men have long spent their time fishing and playing golf, women have sometimes seemed to become unnoticed as they age. But the generation now turning 50 is the baby boomers (生育高峰期出生的人) , and the same people who refused their parents' way of being young are now trying a new way of growing old.

If you take into consideration feminism (女权主义) , a bit of spare money, and better health for most elderly, the Red Hat Society looks almost inevitable (必然的). In this society, women over 50 wear red hats and purple (紫色的) clothes, while the women under 50 wear pink hats and light purple clothing.

"The organization took the idea from a poem by Jenny Joseph that begins:" When I am an old woman, I shall wear purple. With a red hat which doesn't go," said Ellen Cooper, who founded the Red Hat Society' in 1998. When the ladies started to wear the red hats, they attracted lots of attention.

"The point of this is that we need a rest from always doing something for someone else," Cooper said." Women feel so ashamed and sorry when they do something for themselves." This is why chapters are discouraged from raising money or doing anything useful. "We' re ladies' play group. It couldn't be more simple,” added Cooper’s assistant Joe Heywood.

44. The underlined word “chapter” in paragraph 2 means .

A. one branch of an organization

B. a written agreement of a club

C. one part of a collection of poems

D. a period in a society's history

45. From the text, we know that the" baby boomers" are a group of people who .

A. have gradually become more noticeable

B. are worried about getting old too quickly

C. are enjoying a good life with plenty of money to spend

D. tried living a different life from their parents when they were young

46. It could be inferred from the text that members of the Red Hat Society are .

A. interested in raising money for social work

B. programmers who can plan well for their future

C. believers in equality between men and women

D. good at cooking big meals and taking care of others

47. Who set up the Red Hat Society?

A. Emils Comette. B. Ellen Cooper

C. Jenny Joseph. D. Joe Heywood

48. Women join the Red Hat Society because .

A. they want to stay young

B. they would like to appear more attractive

C. they would like to have fun and live for themselves

D. they want to be more like their parents

C

Taiwan police cannot decide whether to treat it as an extremely clever act of stealing or an even clever cheat (诈骗). Either way, it could be the perfect crime (犯罪), because the criminals are birds — horning pigeons!

The crime begins with a telephone message to the owner of a stolen car: if you want the car back, pay up then, the car owner is directed to a park, told where to find a bird cage and how to attach money to the neck of the pigeon inside. Carrying the money in a tiny bag, the pigeon flies off.

There have been at least four such pigeon pick-ups in Changwa. What at first seemed like the work of a clever stay-at-home car thief, however, may in fact be the work of an even lazier and more inventive criminal mind — one that avoid (避免) not only collecting money but going out to steal the car in the first place. Police officer Chen says that the criminal probably has pulled a double trick: he gets money for things he cannot possibly return. Instead of stealing cars, he lets someone else do it and then waits for the car-owner to place an ad (启事) in the newspaper asking for help.

The theory is supported by the fact that, so far, none of the stolen cars have been returned. Also, the amount of money demanded — under 3,000 Taiwanese dollars--seems too little for a car worth many times more.

Demands for pigeon-delivered money stopped as soon as the press reported the story. And even if they start again, Chen holds little hope of catching the criminal. "We have more important things to do, " he said.

49. After the car owner received a phone call. He .

A. went to a certain pigeon and put some money in the bag it carried

B. gave the money to the thief and had his car back in a park

C. send some money to the thief by mail

50. The " lazier and more inventive " criminal refers to .

A. the car thief who stays at home

B. one of those who put the ads in the paper

C. one of the policemen in Changwa

D. the owner of the pigeons

51. The writer mentions the fact that" none of the stolen cars have been returned" to show .

A. how easily people get fooled by criminals

B. what Chen thinks might be correct

C. the thief is extremely clever

D. the money paid is too little

52. The underlined word" they" in the last paragraph refers to .

A. criminals B. pigeons

C. the stolen cars D. demands for money

53. We may infer from the text that the criminal knows how to reach the car owners because .

A. he reads the ads in the newspaper

B. he lives in the same neighborhood

C. he has seen the car owners in the park

D. he has trained the pigeons to follow them

Odland remembers like it was yesterday working in an expensive French restaurant in Denver. The ice cream he was serving fell onto the white dress of a rich and important woman.

Thirty years have passed, but Odland can't get the memory out of his mind, nor the woman's kind reaction. She was shocked, regained calmness and, in a kind voice, told the young Odland, "It's OK. It wasn't your fault. "When she left the restaurant, she also left the future Fortune 500 CEO (总裁) with a life lesson: You can tell a lot about a person by the way he or she treats the waiter.

Odland isn't the only CEO to have made this discovery. Rather, it seems to be one of those few news of the land that every CEO learns on the way up. It's hard to get a dozen CEOs to agree about anything, but most agree with the Waiter Rule. They say how others treat the CEO says nothing. But how others treat the waiter is like a window into the soul.

Watch out for anyone who pulls out the power card to say something like, "I could buy this place and fire you," or "I know the owner and I could have you fired." Those who say such things have shown more about their character (人品) than about their wealth and power.

The CEO who came up with it, or at least first wrote it down, is Raytheon CEO Bill Swanson. He wrote a best-selling book called Swanson's Unwritten Rules of Management.

"A person who is nice to you but rude to the waiter, or to others, is not a nice person," Swanson says. " I will never offer a job to the person who is sweet to the boss but turns rude to someone cleaning the tables."

54. What happened after Odland dropped the ice cream onto the woman's dress?

A. He was fired. B. He was blamed.

C. The woman comforted him. D. The woman left the restaurant

55. Odland learned one of his life lessons from .

A. his experience as a waiter B. the advice given by the CEOs

C. an article in Fortune D. an interesting best-selling book

56. According to the text, most CEOs have the same opinion about .

A. Fortune 500 companies B. the Management Rules

C. Swanson's book D. the Waiter Rule

57. From the text we can learn that .

A. one should be nicer to important people

B. CEOs often show their power before others

C. one should respect others no matter who they are

D. CEOs often have meals in expensive restaurants

书面表达（One possible version）

Advertisements are helpful to producers. With the help of advertisements producers provide people with information about their new products---their good quality, their cheap prices and their popularity. As a result, the new products may sell well and the producers may benefit a lot.

Advertisements are also helpful to customers. They tell the people who are badly in need of a certain thing where to get it. In addition, they can help people to choose some products to their liking. Without advertisements, people might have to grope in the dark.

As far as I am concerned, I seek information from advertisements, but I don't trust them so much. Sometimes the products are not really like what the advertisements claim them to be. And I never buy a product just because an advertisement says that a famous football player or a movie star like it.
