根据以下内容回答题:
Every couDle who goes to the altar(圣坛)believes that they will make that trip onlyonce in their lives.They want the day to be perfect,and they are asking for much more than good weather.Thev want the most beautiful clothes,the freshest flowers.Moreover,her family who will foot the bill is not in any mood,to economize. A quick look at any bride magazine will reveal that plenty of attractive goods and services compete for a share of the wedding budget.Besides the obvious choices of rings,dresses,flowers,and photographs,there are the less apparent expenses:a lavish(奢侈的)cake,a rehearsal dinner,a reception,music fbr both the ceremony and the reception,tips,and even nadkins and matchbooks printed with the couple’s names and the wedding date. As the arrangements are generally complicated,there are plenty of services that can be hired to helD with the planning and execution of the every aspect of the wedding:planning the photographs,selecting the wedding rings,choosing the flowers,picking the honeymoon spot,and so on.One magazine lists over 350 such pamphlets published,of course,by businesses who have something to offer.Considering that weddings do more than l 2 billion dollars worth of business annually in the US alone,such activity isn’t surprising.

What about the couple that doesn’t want to take in this billion-dollar industry?They can go to eity hall and get married for less than the price of a hamburger.
What does the expression“this billion.dollar industry”refer to?
A.The budgets of weddings.
B.The business ofweddings.

??Questions 1 to 5 arc based on the following passage:
Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping because he needs something, his purpose is settled and decided in advance. He knows what he wants and his objective is to find it and buy it; the price is a secondary consideration.
All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they went. If the shop has it in stock, the salesman promptly producesit, and the business of trying it on proceeds at once. All being we1l, the deal can beand of ten is completed in less than five minutes, with hardly any chat and to everyone&39;s satisfaction.
For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants, or does not have exactly what he wants. In that case the salesman, as the name implies, tries to sell the customer something else. He offers the nearest he can to the article required. No good salesman bring sout such a substitute directly, he does so with skill: “I know this jacket is not the sty]e you want, Sir! but would you like to try it for size? It happens to be the color you mentioned.”
Few men have patience with this treatment, and the usual responseis:
“This is the right color and may be the right size, but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on.”
Now how does a woman go about buying clothes?In almost every respect she does so in the opposite way. Her shopping not often based on need. She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is only “having a look round”. She is always open to persuasion; indeed she sets great store by what the saleswoman tells her. She will try on any number of things. Uppermost in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her.
Contrary to a lot of jokes, most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes. They are always on the look out for the unexpected bargain. Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one rail to another, to and fro, before selecting the dresses she wants to try on. It is a 1aborious(费时的) process, but apparently an enjoyable one.
Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.
When a man is buying clothes, .??
A.he buys cheap things, regardless of quality
B.he chooses things that others recommend
C.he does not mind how much he has to pay for the right things
D.he buys good quality things, so long as they are not too expensive

A.He buys similar things of the color he wants.
B.He usually does not buy anything.
C.He tries on some other things, but never buys anything.
D.So long as the size is right, he buys the thing.
What does the passage tell us about women shoppers?
A.They welcome suggestions from anyone.
B.Women rarely consider buying cheap clothes.
C.Women often buy things without giving the matter proper thought
D.They listen to advice but never take it.
In commerce a good salesman is one who___.A.treats his customers kindly.
B.always has in stock just what customers want
C.does not waste his time on difficult customers
D.sells something a customer does not particularly want

Some people argue that pressures on international sportsmen and sportswomen kill the essence of sport-the pursuit of personal excellence. Children kick a football around for fun. When they get older and play for local school teams, they become competitive but they still enjoy playing. The individual representing his country can not afford to think about enjoying himself or herself; he or she has to think only about winning; he or she is responsible for an entire nation' s hopes, dreams and reputation.
A good example is the football World Cup. Football is the world' s most important sport. lt is even more important now that the United States is seriously taking it up. Winning the World Cup is perhaps the summit of international sporting success. Mention "Argentina" to someone and the chances are that he'll think of football. ln a sense, winning the World Cup "put Argentina on the map. "
Sports fans and supporters get quite irrational about the World Cup. People in England felt that their country was somehow important after they won in 1966. Last year thousands of Scots sold their cars, and even their houses, and spent all their money traveling to Argentina, where the finals were played. So, am I arguing that international competition kills the idea of sport? Certainly not! Do the Argentinians really believe that because eleven of their men proved the most skillful at football , their nation is better in every thing else than all other nations? Not really? But it's nice to know that you won ,and that in one way at least your country it best.
26. What is the author's main purpose in the passage? ___________.
A. To prove that football is better than all others.
B. To show that Argentina is better than all others.
C. To compare Scotland with Argentina.

27. In the second paragraph, the world's summit means ___________.
A. highest point

28. According to the passage, Argentina is world-famous because of its ___________.

C. obvious position on the map
D. excellence at all important sports
29. According to the passage, if a sportsman only thinks about winning, he will ___________.

C. lose enjoyment
B. be successful
D. be irrational
