C
As the sound of footsteps behind her grew louder, she quickened her pace. She didn’t want to turn around as the memory of that morning’s newspaper headline made her afraid of what she would see: “City Killer Claims Fourth Victim.”
“Why did I stop for a few drinks in the bar after work?” she thought to herself. Now it was dark and the streets deserted. She was alone and a sitting duck.
She felt as if she was walking in the rain. Her clothes were damp from nervous sweat and as each short hot breath hit the night air, it turned to steam, coating her glasses in a thin film so all she saw seemed covered in fog.
The footsteps were closer now. She needed to get off this street. Her eyes began a useless search for an open store or lighted window. Passing a small lane she looked through, for a possible escape route. But the lane was a dead - end and she laughed to herself at the irony ( 具有讽刺意味的事 ).
The sound of a car behind her turning onto the street interrupted her self – pity. Escape was at hand. But as she was about to throw herself onto the road and shout for the car to stop, the car’s headlights cast a shadow that paralyzed ( 使瘫痪 ) her with terror.
It was the footsteps’ owner. The figure was huge and in its raised arm it held what looked like a lead-pipe, no doubt the one that was about to claim victim number five.
The shadow dissolved as the car passed by and disappeared into the distance. She felt a hand on her shoulder. It was all happening as if in slow – motion. She was waiting for her life to flash before her eyes like all those novels said it would – but it didn’t. The only thing she thought of was her dear husband. She recalled phoning him from work that very afternoon and joking about, of all things, the city killer. It was a night full of ironies.
There was a voice talking to her now but she was lost in thoughts of her fate and didn’t respond. The hand then began turning her around. It was surprisingly gentle given what was about to come. She allowed it to guide her without resistance ( 抗拒 ).
She looked up. She recognized the face, but she didn’t know from where. Its mouth was still talking to her but she couldn’t understand. Then she remembered. The face belonged to the foreign looking man who had served her at the bar. She looked down to his hand and saw in it not a lead – pipe but a rolled up copy of a work report she had been correcting in the bar as she drank.
His words suddenly started to register in her brain and she could hear him. “Miss, Miss. Are you OK? You left this in the bar and it looked important so I thought I’d better give it to you.”
56. The woman was feeling nervous because________.
A. she had left her report in the bar
B. there was a killer in the city
C. she was being followed by someone
D. the streets were dark and empty
57. The underlined expression “a sitting duck” (paragraph 2) is closest in meaning to “________”.
A. an easy target           B. a frightened person
C. a foolish animal        D. a still position
58. What is the correct order of events that happened to the woman on the day of the story?
a. She went for a drink in a bar.    b. She corrected the report.
c. She heard loud footsteps.   d. She read the newspaper.
e. She called her husband.     f. She felt a hand on her shoulder.
A. d,c,a,e,b,f  B. c,d,a,e,f,b   C. d,a,b,e,c,f   D. d,e,a,b,c,f
59. Why did the woman laugh when she looked into the lane?
A. She was excited because she thought it may be a way to escape.
B. She felt bitter because she had no chance to escape.
C. She was becoming more and more nervous.
D. She realized that she was behaving foolishly.
60. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A. It was raining when she left the bar.
B. The woman had felt nervous about the city killer for days.
C. The temperature was very low that evening.
D. The woman was behaving unreasonably.

Do you like shopping? Or does the thought of wandering round the shops fill you with terror? For some of us,shopping is an enjoyable way of spending our spare time and our money. For me.it's something I would rather avoid.Thank goodness for the Internet! It's more convenient to buy CDs,electrical items,even food,from the comfort of your sofa.But that’s not the only reason:price is an important factor.We can buy goods and services cheaper online. But sometimes the problem is knowing what to buy.This has led to a type of shopping called “showrooming”.

Showrooming is something I've done.I will go to a shop to see,touch and try out products but then go home and buy them online at a knock—down price.I'm not alone in doing this.Research by a company called Foolproof,found 24%of people showroomed while Christmas shopping in 2013.

Amy Cashman,Head of Technology at TNS UK,says the reasons for this new shopping habit are that“people are lacking time,lacking money and they want security about the products they are buying.”She explains that consumers are not only shopping online at home but they are using the Internet in store or on their smartphones to shop around.

But does this mean technology will kill shops? Certainly shops will change.They will have to offer more competitive prices or encourage people to buy more by giving in—store discounts or free girls.

We mustn’t forget that buying in a shop means you can get expert advice from the sales assistant and you can get good aftercare.It’s good to speak to a real human rather than look at a faceless computer screen but at least by showrooming,you get the best of both worlds!

1.The two questions in Paragraph l are raised to       

A.introduce the topic            B.give two examples

C.compare different opinions     D.get answers from readers

2.What does showrooming mean in the text?

A.Trying in shops and buying online.

B.Showing products in a room.

C.Buying something in a store.

D.Shopping on the Internet.

3.According to Amy Cashman,which is not the reason for showrooming?

A.The lack of time.         B.The comfort of the sofa.

C.The shortness of money.   D.The security of the product.

4.What can be inferred from Paragraph 4 ?

A.Online shops will disappear.

B.Free gifts will surely promote sales.

C.Shops need necessary changes.

D.Shops will be replaced by online shops.

5.The author's attitude towards showrooming is         

A.critical  B.neutral   C.supportive   D.casual
