I found myself facing a dry-cleaning store which had once been one of the best restaurants in New York. On Sundays the old man would take my mother and me for dinner. There had been a balcony (走廊) where a baker (面包师) in a tall white hat baked fresh bread, and been whenever a customer entered, the baker would look down and put in a fresh batch (一炉). I could see the manager who always sat down with us while we ate. He had some disease, I suppose, because the right side of his face was swollen (肿的) out like a balloon, but he always wore a hard wing collar and a white tie, and never seemed sick. A Negro with a moustache was looking through the store window at me. For a moment I was anxious to go and tell him what l remembered. I did not go into the store, nor even toward our house, I went downtown instead and sat in my room, trying to read.
Why did the writer stop in front of the store?
A. He wanted to take some clothes to be cleaned.
B. He was thinking about his boyhood.
C. He was looking for a good place to eat.
D. He wanted to buy some fresh bread.

"What happened?" ask his wife.
"My dear," groaned the scientist, "I've been riding for hours in a backward-facing seat. You know how that always distresses my liver."
"But, darling," said Iris wife, "we have talked of this before, mid surely you told me that if you found yourself in such a spot, you would ask the person in the seat facing you to exchange places."
"Alas," said the scientist. "On this trip I could not ask. There was no one sitting there."

Personal Assistant of the Year
O Anne-Marie Garrard was shocked when it was announced that she had won the
00 Personal Assistant of the Year award. "The other candidates seemed me
34 to be very strong, and I have to say I found that the selection procedure really
35 hard," she says. "1 didn"t think I had any chance of winning. When I heard my
36 name, my legs were so weak I could only hardly stand up," she laughs. So
37 how is "the best" personal assistant chosen from a group of so extremely good
38 and very different individuals? The final decision was reached after a
39 day-long session of the tests, interviews and exercises. Garrard believes
40 the skills she uses in her job helped her how to perform. well. For instance, although
41 most of her work is for her company"s Managing Director, she works for six bosses
42 in all, so she always tries out to be prepared for anything that might happen.
43 As for the future, her firm has closed for its summer break now; as soon as
44 they will open again, there is a pay rise waiting for her. But Garrard is not
45 going to be relax. She says, "There"s always room for personal development. You must keep trying to improve."

听力原文: Sharon Keating was worried about her kids when she got a divorce. Her daughter says, "I was feeling ... like down and sad and even though I didn't really show it."
Judith Wallerstein says problems from divorce can last for many years. They can show up when the kids are adults. As adults, the kids have trouble.
Wallerstein studied 93 children over a generation. The results can only be found in her book.
She says children of divorce are more likely to have problems with drugs. They are far more likely to seek therapy. About 40-percent of them do not marry. Their marriages fail at nearly twice the usual rate. It is hard for them to trust. They are afraid of failing.
Critics say Wallerstein had too few children in her study. Other things may be the cause of the kid's problems. The study does not compare kids from divorced families with kids from "healthy" families.
Wallerstein's families divorced a generation ago. Times have changed. People feel different about divorce. Today programs like Kid's Turn try to lessen some of the effects of divorce with family counseling. Talking about their feelings helps the kids get through it.
Since they know more about the problems, maybe the kids will be able to handle it.
