29、HENSIONRead the two passages and choose the most likely answer to each of the questions.Blacken the letter corresponding to your choice on the ANSWER SHEET. (2 points each, 20 points in all)Passage 1I grew up in an age of delayed gratification, when I had to wait for almost everything. The mail came
30、 once a day, and I recall the thrill of anticipation when expecting my issue of Mad magazine or some fancy item I had ordered from the Johnson Smith novelty company.Classic movies were shown on television, and the farthest in advance one could learn about them was a week courtesy of TV Guide. And, o
31、f course, one had to be home at the appointed time to watch them. The Wizard of Oz, for example, was broadcast only once a year, an interval seemingly set in stone, and the steadily heightening sense of anticipation as the broadcast date approached was almost too much for my 10-year-old heart to bea
32、r. Finally, though, my long wait was rewarded as Judy Garland sang nOver the Rainbow against the backdrop of rural Kansas.It was the same with TV shows. If you had a favorite and you missed an episode, well, tough luck you had to wait until summer to catch the rerun.And then there was money. The ban
33、ks did business on weekdays only. They opened at nine and closed at four. Period. You needed money but didnt make it to the bank on time? Well, check under the sofa cushions or borrow from family or friends.Most stores were closed on Sundays, which gave that day a particular nfeeln that has disappea
34、red in an age when commerce continues non-stop around the clock and quiet, stand-down (休整期).Sundaysthe serenity broken only by the sound of church bells-have disappeared.Such was the world as recently as the 1970s. Everything seemed to operate on a strict clock, and the words on demand0 had no meani
35、ng, for there was no force on earth that could alter the US MaiFs schedule, conjure up The Wizard of Oz out of season, or get the bank to stay open a minute past four, and dont you forget it. This was the way things worked, and it was all we knew.And then, seemingly overnight, everything changed.It
36、suddenly seemed as if I never had to be anywhere at an appointed time, because everything was available all the time. ATMs, movies on DVD, and, of course, the personal computer, meant that we could have almost anything we wanted, when we wanted it.But rather than being charmed by what we have gained
37、, I am gently haunted by what was lost. Having to wait for almost everything meant living a life in slower motion. When one is subject to unvarying, institutional schedules, one has no choice but to wait. In this way the virtue of patience is developed.The changed times, on the other hand, have enco
38、uraged nothing less than a constant sense of urgency, which is ironic: If we can have anything we want anytime we want it, shouldnt we be less hurried? The answer is that an “on demand lifestyle has created, and increased, an appetite for speed: If I can have something this fast, why cant I have it
39、faster?This was brought home to me when I read a book that has HFSTRn (get it?) splashed across its coven The official title is Faster: The Acceleration of Just About Everything.0 One of itsmetaphors was telling: First there was the fresh-squeezed lemon; then there was the lemonade mix; now we just
40、buy the lemonade by the gallon.And so, on this hot summer day, as a gentle, rather nostalgic form of protest against the demands of a hurried age, I went to the supermarket and bought three fresh lemons. Diligently, carefully, and with no sense of needing to be anywhere else or do anything else, I s
41、queezed them into a tall glass. Then I filled the glass with cold water, ice, and a teaspoon of sugar. Fresh lemonade in hand, I went outside, sat in my lawn chair, and looked out over the fiver. And I sipped.Yes, time passes quickly. But, now and then, it doesnt have to.41. How did the writer feel
42、as he was waiting for the yearly show of The Wizard of Oz?A. He missed the rural life in Kansas.B. He was sure he would be given a reward.C. He became increasingly eager to watch the show.D. He knew it was not suitable for children to watch.42. What can be inferred from ncheck under the sofa cushion
43、s1 in Paragraph 5?A. You might find some coins there.B. Someone might have left a note for you.C. You might want to sell the sofa cushions for cash:D. Someone might have hidden something valuable there.43. Which of the following is true about life in the past according to the passage?A. People tried
44、 in vain to change the long intervals between TV programs.B. The inflexibility in service schedule made people more patient.C. People enjoyed shopping on Sundays with free time.D.

To protest against mass production of goods in industrial age.Passage 2Four years ago Juliette Wright gave birth to her second chil
47、d, a big, healthy baby boy. Hudson grew so fast that Juliette was left with some unworn baby clothes. Feeling privileged to have a happy family, Juliette wanted to give the clothes to a less fortunate mother.When she phoned her local charities, Juliette was shocked to find none of them needed more b
