    　　12 Park Garden

    　　London SW1

    　　30th March, 2004

    　　Miss S．Carter

    　　Espana Holidays

    　　43 Market square

    　　London SW3

    　　Dear Miss Carter,

    　　Following my telephone conversation with you yesterday, we have decided that we would prefer to go to Malaga for our holiday rather than Canada．Of the hotels you suggested, we think that the San Carlos would suit us best．

    　　We should like to stay for a fortnight from the 23rd July．Our party will consist of myself, my wife Sheila, our 11-year-old son, Timathy, and our 10-year-old daughter, Mary and my sister, Mrs Anna Harvey and her two sons, Richard and Edward, aged 13 and 14．We shall, therefore, require two double rooms and a 3-bedded room for the boys．

    　　I think it would be more satisfactory for us to have half-board, as we are unlikely to be in for all meals, and we want to sample the local food．

    　　You said our flight would leave from Gatwick．Perhaps you would let me know how long it takes to fly to Malaga and the departure time．

    　　I understand that, if I should decide to hire a car, you can arrange for it to be at the airport for our arrival．

    　　I enclose the completed booking form and check to cover the deposit of ￡25 per person required at the time of booking．I should be glad to receive confirmation of booking at your earliest convenience．

    Yours sincerely,

    Frank Simpso

    答案：1．A;2．C;3．B;4．D;
    解析：

    (1)

    从文中第二段知道，一共7人，里面含有一些同位语，并非多出几人。

    (2)

    从文中第二段知道，他们需要两个双人房间和一个三人房间，可知：三个男孩住三人房间，Simpson夫妇住一个房间；很显然Mary和Mrs Anna Harvey住在一起。

    (3)

    此题根据文中最后一段第一句“I enclose the completed booking form and check to cover the deposit of ￡25 per person required at the time of booking”可知答案。

    (4)

    此题根据倒数第二段中的“I understand that, if I should decide to hire a car, you can arrange for it to be at the airport for our arrival”可知，Frank Simpson想让他租的车在机场等候。

    阅读理解:阅读下列短文, 从所给的四个选项中, 选出最佳答案。 

        Animals seem to have the sense to eat when they are hungry and　　 they do not eat more than their bodies need. It has been demonstrated　　 (证实) that rats will, when given a choice over a period of time,　　 prefer water with vitamins (维生素) to water without vitamins, even　　 though there is no difference in taste or smell between the two water　　 bottles. When a fragrant flavor (香味) was added to the　　 vitamin—enriched liquid, the rats did seem to develop a taste for it　　 and kept drinking it, even after the vitamins were switched (转) to　　 the clear water. In time, however, they broke the habit and went back　　 to where the necessary vitamins were.

    　　

    　　    In an experiment, babies of 6 to 12 months old were placed in a　　 cafeteria (自助食堂) with a wide selection of baby food before them.　　 They were given whatever food they pointed to or appeared interested　　 in. We are told that at first they showed some unusual eating　　 patterns, but over a period of time they managed to select a well　　 balanced diet (饮食).

    　　

    　　     So, in selecting food, rats and babies do seem to know and act on　　 what's best for them. Clearly, there is a kind of "body wisdom" which　　 humans soon lose. Most of us do not eat as wisely as we could. Many　　 of our food preferences are culturally determined and influenced (影　　 响) by long-established habits. Some people eat fox, dog and　　 blackbirds, while we eat cows and pigs. So what people eat and how　　 much they eat seems to be greatly influenced by what is going on　　 around them.　　

    　　

    (1)In the experiment on rats, a fragrant flavor was added to the　　 rat's drinking water to ________.

    [　　]

    A. encourage rats to drink it　　 　　

    B. find out what kind of flavor rats prefer　　 　　

    C. test whether rats know which drink is with fragrant flavor　　 　　

    D. demonstrate that vitamins are tasteless　　 　　

    (2)The expression "the habit" in the first paragraph refers to　　 drinking water which __________.　　　　　　　　　　

    [　　]

    A. has no smell　　 B. is tasteless

    C. has vitamins　　 D. is flavored　　 　　

    (3)As far as their eating habits are concerned, babies and rats　　 are similar (相似) because ___________.　　　　　　

    　　

    [　　]

    A. both have the wisdom to choose a balanced diet　　 　　

    B. both prefer flavored food and drink　　 　　

    C. both have the same eating patterns　　 　　

    D. both develop a taste for the same kinds of flavors　　 　　

    (4)In the experiment mentioned in the second paragraph, babies　　 were _________.

    A. given many choices of drinks　　 　　

    B. provided with various kinds of baby food　　 　　

    C. placed and fed in a cafeteria　　 　　

    D. trained to select a balanced diet　　 　　

    (5)According to the passage, adults' (成年人) eating habits differ　　 from those of babies because ____________.　　　　

    　　

    [　　]

    A. adults know better than babies what kinds of food are good for their health　　 　　

    B. adults usually cannot resist the temptation of various delicious foods　　 　　

    C. adults' eating habits are closely related to the social and cultural customs　　 　　

    D. adults have more choices of food than babies in eating patterns

         CBC is a famous air company which has over twenty planes carrying passengers and goods, flying
    along 12 fixed lines all over the world. Its service is very good but some passengers are still not satisfied
    with it and that is why in 1998 and 1999 the company received letters of complaints(投诉) from consumers
    or passengers who pointed out over a dozen kinds of problems which are divided in groups in the following
    table. This division is called Category. Problems that appear when the plane is flying are Flight problems.
    Those about passengers' things carried by the plane are Baggage problems. Customer service refers to
    service work which passengers are not satisfied with. Over sales of seats are about the fact that more seats
    are sold and as a result the plane is too crowded to be safe. Refund problems appear when passengers fail
    to receive the money paid to them because of what they have lost. Fares are problems about the price of
    tickets. Reservations are problems that appear when passengers could not get the tickets they have already
    booked. Tours are problems about the passengers'traveling by air or hotel problems. Advertising is what the
    passengers think about advertisement on the plane. Credit problems are about the use of credit cards.
