A When I was six, Dad brought home a dog one day, who was called “Brownie”. My brothers and I all loved Brownie and did different things with her. One of us would walk her, another would feed her, then there were baths, playing catch and many other games. Brownie, in return, loved each and every one of us. One thing that most touched my heart was that she would go to whoever was sick and just be with them. We always felt better when she was around. One days, as I was getting her food, she chewed up（咬破）one of Dad’s shoes, which had to be thrown away in the end. I knew Dad would be mad and I had to let her know what she did was Wrong. When I looked at her and said, “Bad girl. ” She looked down at the ground and then went and hid. I saw a tear in her eyes. Brownie turned out to be more than just our family pet. She went everywhere with us. People would stop and ask if they could pet her. Of course she’d let anyone pet her. She was just the most lovable dog. There were many dines when we’d be out walking and a small child would come over and pull on her hair. She never barked（吠）or tried to get away. Funny thing is she would smile.

B When you’re lying on the white sands of the Mexican Riviera, the stresses（压力）of the world seem a million miles away. Hey, stop! This is no vacation---yon have to finish something! Here lies the problem fat travel writer and food critic（评论家）Edie Jarolim. “I always loved traveling and always liked to eat, but it never occurred to me that I could make money doing both of those things. ” Jarolim said. Now you can read her travel advice everywhere --- in Arts and Antiques, in Brides, or in one of her three books. The Complete Idiot Travel Guide to Mexico’s Beach Resorts. Her job in travel writing began Some eight years ago. After getting a PhD in English in Canada, she took a test for Frommer’s travel guides, passed it, and got the job. After working at Frommer’s, Jarolim worked for a while at Rough Guides in London, then Fodor’s, where she fell so in love with a description of the Southwest of the U. S. that she moved there. Now as a travel writer, she spends one-third of her year on the road. The rest of the time is spent completing her tasks and writing reviews of restaurants at home in Tucson, Arizona. As adventurous as the job sounds, the hard part is fact --- checking all the information. Sure, it’s great to write about a tourist attraction, but you’d better get the local（当地的）museum hours correct or you could really ruin someone’s vacation. 46. Which country does Jarolim have in now？　 　 A. Mexico. B. The U.S. C. The U.K. D. Canada. 47. What is most difficult for Jarolim？　 　 A. Working in different places to collect information. B. Checking all the facts to be written in the guides. C. Finishing her work as soon as possible. D. Passing a test to write travel guides. 48. What do we know about Jarolim from the text？　 　 A. She is successful in her job. B. She finds her life full of stresses. C. She spends half of her time traveling. D. She is especially interested in museums. 49. What would be the best title for the text? 　 　 A. Adventures in Travel Writing B. Working as a Food Critic C. Travel Guides on the Market D. Vacationing for a Living C Thousands of people living in the Chinese capital will celebrate the start of the Chinese New year by heading for the ski resorts（滑雪场）. Never mind that Beijing’s dry weather seldom produces snow. It is cold enough in winter for snow --- making machines to make a covering for the hills north to the capital. And the rapid growth of a pleasure --- seeking middle class has formed the basis for this new craze（热潮）. Since Beijing’s first ski resort was opened ten years ago, the sport has enjoyed astonishing increase. There are now more than a dozen resorts. Clothes markets in the city have added bright colored ski suits to their winter collections. Mr. Wei, a manager of a newly-opened ski resort in Beijing, sees the growth of an industry that could soon lead Chinese to head for the ski resorts of Europe. In recent years ski resorts offering natural snow have opened in China. But many are in faraway areas of the country and can’t really match the equipment and services of some ski resorts in Europe. Beijing’s skiing craze is partly a result of the recent increase in private（私有的） cars. This has led to the growth of a leisure industry in the capital’s suburbs（郊区）, which until the late-1990s were unreachable to ordinary people. According to Mr. Wei, about 40% of the visitors to his resort come in their own cars. The rest are bused in by schools, businesses or government offices. The problem is making money. Starting ski resorts requires quite a lot of money; hiring land from the local government, preparing the hills, buying snow machines, making sure there are enough water and electricity to run them, and buying ski equipment for hiring out to customers. The ski resort where Mr. Wei works cost nearly $4m to set up. And as so often in China when someone comes up with a good idea, many others hash in and price wars break out. Beijing now offers some of the cheapest ski training classes in the world, though with most people rather new to the sport, expecting a few more doing the same job. 50. What does this text mainly talk about？　 　 A. Convenience for skiers brought about by private cars. B. Skiing as a new way of enjoying one’s spare time. C. Things to be considered when starting a ski resort. D. A sudden increase of ski training classes in Beijing. 51. Why are some Chinese likely to go skiing in Europe？　 　 A. To visit more ski areas. B. To ski on natural snow. C. For a large collection of ski suits. D. For better services and equipment. 52. The underlined words “leisure industry” in Paragraph 3 refer to　 　 A. transport to ski resorts B. production of family cars C. business of providing spare time enjoyments D part-time work for people living in the suburbs 53. What is the main problem in running a ski resort？　 　 A. Difficulty in hiring land. B. Lack of business experience. C. Price wars with other ski resorts. D. Shortage of water and electricity.
