　　Step into Pat Lundin's home and you'll be greeted by 500 smiling faces of dolls．Lundin, 82, describes herself as “doll crazy”．And she's not alone．

　　As a member of Timeless Treasures Doll Club of Largo, she frequently meets with 25 other women who share her hobby．Once a month, they gather at the Palms of Largo to show off their latest finds and catch up on news in the world of doll collecting．

　　On Saturday, the club will hold the Palms of Largo Fifth Annual Doll Show．The program will include 37 vendors(卖主)with both classic and contemporary dolls for sale．

　　“Timeless Treasures is a club that's open to doll lovers regardless of the age of the doll,” said Judy Smith, president of the organization．“Some doll clubs require members have a certain number of antique dolls, but we don't．we make sure we are not terribly formal．”

　　Smith, 71, is a retired schoolteacher who owns Judy's Doll Hospital, a part-time business she operates out of her home．She will have a table offering repair and appraisal(鉴定)services．

　　Smith firs began studying and collecting dolls in her early 20s,in Glassboro, New Jersey, she does not know how many dolls she owns, or how many repairs she has made over the years．But she does know the age of her oldest doll．

　　“She's 129,” Smith said．“It is a German-made doll that belonged to my grandmother, and it sits in my living room．”

　　The show is for both the beginner as well as the experienced collector, said Anita Munson, one of the show's organizers．

　　Over the years, Munson, 82, has learned how to identify a valuable doll．“Generally speaking porcelain(瓷制的)dolls are the most valuable,” she said．“But the porcelain will not be shiny．”

　　Smith believes many people will attend to find out how much their dolls are worth．She wants them to know more．

　　“Because the dolls reflect what the children were wearing and doing at a particular period of time, they can be a great history lesson for children now,” she said．

阅读下列短文, 从所给的四个选项中, 选出最佳答案。

These days experiences, like many other things, are becoming increasingly expensive. One has got to pay a lot to get even an ordinary one.

Not long ago, I wanted to invite my friends to a lunch. What we really need was a good and quiet place for a talk, not a big meal. So I selected one for people only who belong to a particular club. I　　 belong to the club, too. What could be nicer? "Let's go to the club," I told my friend.

When I ordered a day in advance, I was asked whether I would eat a 20 yuan or 30 yuan lunch. I said, "30 yuan". I didn't realize until I was asked to pay after the lunch, that "30 yuan" means "30 yuan for persons each."

There were five people that day, and all of us were surprised by the quality of the 30 yuan meal (for all, we thought). The bill came at last: it was 216.40 (150 for the five of us plus the money for drinks, fruits and air conditioning). I paid the bill without a word.

What could I say? It was not the club's fault. It was my own ignorance (无知) that made me pay the largest bill in my life.

On the whole, it was not so bad; we had a good lunch and a quiet place. Besides, the experience will help in later years.

To support my idea, I have developed my own calculation (算法): 30 yuan for the lunch and 186.40 for the experience.

This paid experience has made me ten times wiser.

1. Now many things are becoming ______________.

[　　]

A. less expensive　　　　

B. not so expensive as before 　　

C. as expensive as before　　

D. more expensive　　

2. I ordered a lunch ________________.

[　　]

A. the day before　　　　

B. so as to have a big lunch 　　

C. so that we could have a grand party 　　

D. in order to introduce my friend to the members of the club which I belong to

3. I had thought that I had ordered a meal that cost ____________.

[　　]

A. me 20 yuan　　

B. me 30 yuan

C. us 20 yuan each

D. us 30 yuan each

4. What do you think makes me pay the largest lunch bill in my life?

[　　]

A. My fault.　　　　

B. My ignorance.　　　　

C. The club that had managed to make its customers misunderstand.

D. My friend's fault.　　

5. "This paid experience has made me ten times wiser." expressed ________.

[　　]

A. the writer's thanks to the club 　　　　

B. the writer's pleasure to ten times wiser 　　

C. the writer's modesty　　　　

D. the writer's anger
