Once Alice was on her daily walk when she saw a 34 sitting in a rocking chair under a tree. He looked very old and his hair was white. He looked thin and weak, and his hands were shaking, 35 he looked very happy.
He smiled at her and said, “Good morning, lovely day, isn't it?"
He had a wide smile 36 his face, and his eyes shone with happiness. But Alice saw that he did not have teeth.
“Good morning!” replied Alice. “ Yes, it is a lovely day.”
Alice thought he 37 very old and wise. She thought he must be at least 90 years old! She decided to ask him about the 38 of a happy old age.

What do you think Salman Rushdie, Bill Clinton, Paulo Coelho and Fyodor Dostoyevsky all have in common? They are all writers, you may say.Yes, and all of them are also members of a new club: writers of books that British people cannot finish. In a recent survey of 4,000 adults on books, there were some interesting findings.
32% of the people said they couldn't finish Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire by J.K. Rowling. Another book was James Joyce’s 1922 novel Ulysses, which has more than l,000 pages. Surprisingly, Louis de Berni eres’ nove l Captain Corelli's Mandolin was also included. The book has sold more than 2 million since 1994, but not many people seem to be .able to finish it.
There were more interesting results in the survey. 55% of the people said they bought books for decoration (装饰) and they had no plan to read them. A spokeswoman from a publishing house said, "It seems that people buy some books just to make their bookcases look good, rather than actually buying a book that they want to read," she added. ';People are buying books because they think they will be good for them. rather than because they think they' ll enjoy them."
The findings said many people found it hard to make time for reading. Main reasons for this included: feeling tired (48%), ,watching TV (46%), and playing computer games (26%).
But who really cares? The book industry is happy because people are buying books anyway. And readers are happy because they can decorate their bookcases and make a good impression（印象）on others.

If you' re always wanted a pet but never been able to have one, you can become a sponsor (赞助者) of a needy farm animal through a local sanctuary (避难所). As a sponsor, you provide food ,water, and most importantly, medical help to help save animals.
Sponsoring animals is good for kids for some reasons. It lets kids take care of an animal without worrying much about the mess. It also lets kids see how wonderful farm animals are.

Lucas Farina, from Maryland, US, loves dogs, but he has never owned one. The 1l-year-old now sponsors a dog at Star Gazing Farm.
"I love animals," said Lucas. "You just try to take care of them any way you can." He said sponsoring was a good way to learn how to take care of animals.
Madison O'Brien, an 8-year-old from West Virginia, US, has always loved horses, but she isn't able to have one. Her mother gave her the gift of sponsoring a horse at PIGS Animal Sanctuary for her birthday.
Madison goes to the sanctuary every Saturday. She brushes the horse and feeds it on its

cause terrible accidents. We shouldn’t swim alone either especially in deep river. If we really want to, we can go to the swimming pool with our parents. What’s more, it’s very important to follow traffic rules. And we mustn’t play on the road.

2016 年全国硕士研究生入学统一考试英语（一） 真题及答案（完整版） Text 1 France, which prides itself as the global innovator of fashion, has decided its fashion industry has lost an absolute right to define physical beauty for woman. Its lawmakers gave preliminary approval last week to a law that would make it a crime to employ ultra-thin models on runways. The parliament also agreed to ban websites that" incite excessive thinness" by promoting extreme dieting. Such measures have a couple of uplifting motives. They suggest beauty should not be defined by looks that end up with impinging on health. That's a start. And the ban on ultra-thin models seems to go beyond protecting models from starring themselves to health -as some have done. It tells the fashion industry that it move take responsibility for the signal it sends women, especially teenage girls, about the social tape -measure they must use to determine their individual worth. The bans, if fully enforced ,would suggest to woman （and many men ）that they should not let others be orbiters of their beauty .And perhaps faintly, they hint that people should look to intangible qualities like character and intellect rather than dieting their way to sine zero or wasp-waist physiques . The French measures, however, rely too much on severe punishment to change a culture that still regards beauty as skin-deep-and bone-showing. Under the law, using a fashion model that does not meet a government-defined index of body mess could result in a $85,000 fine and six months in prison. The fashion industry knows it has an inherent problem in focusing on material adornment and idealized body types. In Denmark, the United States, and a few other countries, it is trying to set voluntary standard for models and fashion images there rely more on pear pressure for enforcement. In contrast to France's actions, Denmark's fashion industry agreed last month on rules and sanctions regarding age, health, and other characteristics of models .The newly revised Danish Fashion Ethical charter clearly states, we are aware of and take responsibility for the impact the fashion industry has on body ideals, especially on young people. The charter's main toll of enforcement is to deny access for designers and modeling agencies to Copenhagen. Fashion week, which is men by the Danish Fashion Institute .But in general it relies on a name-and -shame method of compliance. Relying on ethical persuasion rather than law to address the misuse of body ideals may be the best step. Even better would be to help elevate notions of beauty beyond the material standards of a particular industry. 21. According to the first paragraph, what would happen in France [A] Physical beauty would be redefined [B] New runways would be constructed
