Partly to have a rest, Edith paused in front of a counter, where some beautiful ties were on show. "They are __3__ silk," the shop assistant told her with a smile trying to persuade her to buy one. But Edith knew from past experience that her choice of ties hardly ever pleased her father.

Edith did not hesitate for long, although her father __4__ smoked a pipe once in a while, she believed this was certainly to please him.
When she got home, with her small but well-chosen present hidden in her handbag, it was time for supper and her parents were already at table. Her mother was in great __5__.

One of the difficulties in carrying out a worldwide birth control program lies in the fact that official attitudes to population growth vary from country to country depending on the level of industrial development and the availability of food and raw materials. In a developing country where a vastly expanded population is pressing hard upon the limits of food, space and natural resources, it will be the first concern of government to place a limit on the birthrate, whatever the consequences may be. In a highly industrialized society the problem may be more complex. A decreasing birthrate may lead to unemployment because it results in a declining market for manufactured goods. When the pressure of population on housing declines, prices also decline and the building industry is weakened. Faced with considerations such as these, the government of a developed country may well prefer to see a slowly increasing population, rather than one which is stable or in decline.
1. A large population may mean _________.
A.higher productivity, but a lower average income
B.ower productivity, but a higher average income
C.higher productivity and a higher average income

A.economy
B.transportation
C.extensive cultivation
D.Agriculture
3.In highly industrialized countries, unemployment may result from _________.
A.a decreasing birthrate
B.an increasing birthrate
C.a stable birthrate
D.a birth control program
4.What may the government of a developed country prefer?()
A.A rapidly increasing population.
B.A rapidly decreasing population.
C.A slowly increasing population.
D.A slowly decreasing population.
5.Why is it difficult to carry out a worldwide birth control program?()
A.Because it will do harm to the national economy in most countries.
B.Because it will lead to complex social problems in developing countries.
C.Because people are unwilling to practice birth control.
D.Because different governments have different opinions.

Kindness or Strangers
At the store where I worked, I noticed a young boy of about ten shopping alone with his school list. He placed everything in his basket and went to the checkout.
The young shop assistant told him the total price, $37.60. the boy was instantly disappointed and said he had only been given $20. He took out one thing at a time until he got down to his $20. With eyes full of tears, he asked if he could phone his mum to pick him up. When he got through, it appeared that even this was inconvenient for his mother.
He bit hard on his lip to stop the tears and walked outside to wait on the bench in front of the shop. This was all too much for the young assistant who had served him and she said, “ I wish I could afford to pay for the rest of his things.” One of the other girls said she had a few dollars. Then two others said they could help as well.
These four young girls pooled their money and found that they had more than enough money for the boy’s extra purchases. So they upgraded his pens and pencils to top-quality ones, then took the bag out to the boy on the seat. His young face changed from sadness to the most beautiful smile. His mother arrived much later to pick him up. Instead of running to the car, he ran back into the store and called out, “ thank you!”
I was so proud of my team that day. They did something wonderful for that boy and also found the pleasure of giving was as great as receiving.
