Whatever the reason, you can soon become totally unaware of your surroundings. The desire to pick up a book with an attractive design is irresistible, although this method of selecting ought not to be followed, as you might end up with a rather uninteresting book, you soon become lost in some book or other, and usually it is only much later that you realize you have spent far too much time there and must hurry to keep some forgotten appointment——without buying a book, of course. The opportunity to escape the realities of everyday life is, I think, the main attraction of a bookshop. There are not many places where it is possible to do this. A music shop is very much like a bookshop. You can go to such places as much as you wish. If it is a good shop, no assistant will approach you with the greeting: “Can I help you, sir?” You needn’t buy anything you don’t want. In a bookshop, an assistant should remain in the background until you have finished reading. You may want to find out where a particular section is. Then, and only then, are his services necessary. But when he has led you there, the assistant should leave politely and look as if he is not interested in selling a single book. 1. The best title for this passage may be _________. A.

( 2 ) The world’s population continues to grow. There now are about 4 billion of us on earth. That could reach 6 billion by the end of the century and 11 billion in a further 75 years. Experts have long been concerned about such a growth. Where will we find the food, water, jobs, houses, school and health care for all these people? A major new study shows that the situation may be changing. A large and rapid drop in the world’s birth rate has taken place during the past 10 years. Families generally are smaller now than they were a few years ago. It is happening in both developing and industrial nations. Researchers said they found a number of reasons for this. More men and women are waiting longer to get married and are using birth control devices and methods to prevent or delay pregnancy. More women are going to school or working at jobs away from home instead of having children. And more governments, especially in developing nations, now support family planning programs to reduce population grow. China is one of the nations that have made great progress in reducing its population growth. China has already cut its rate of population growth by about half since 1970. Each Chinese family is now urged to have no more than one child. And the hope is to reach a zero population growth with the total number of births equaling the total number of deaths by the year 2000. Several nations in Europe already have fewer births than deaths. Experts said that these nations could face a serious shortage of workers in the future. And the persons who are working could face much higher taxes to help support the growing number of retired people. 6. The world’s population could reach ____________. A. 6 billion in 75 years B. 11 billion in 2075 C. 11 billion by the end of this century D. 600 million in 15 years 7. Which of the following is true? A. The world’s birth rate is higher than ten years ago. B. There has been a slower population growth in the past ten years. C. Families are as large as before. D. Birth control has been well practiced in all nations. 8. By the year 2000, the number of births and the number of deaths in China will _______. A. be greatly different B. drop a great deal C. be equal D. become much larger 9. According to the essay, China’s population control ________. A. is not quite successful B. should be considered a big success C. is far from being successful D. is a complete failure 10. It may happen in the future that the people who are working in Europe will have to pay much higher taxes because___________. A. more and more children will be born B. the number of retired people will become ever larger C. fewer and fewer children will be born D. they will be making a lot of money 二、交际用语(此部分共有5个未完成的对话，针对每个对话中未完成的部分有4个选项，请从A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出一个最佳选项。) 20% (答案必须填在答卷表格里,否则不得分) 1. — Hello, this is David speaking.
