Almost every day we come across situations in which we have to make decisions one way or another. Choice, we are given to believe, is a right. But for a good many people in the world, in rich and poor countries, choice is a luxury, something ____52____ but hard to get, not a right. And for those who think they are exercising their right to make choices, the whole system is merely an illusion, a false idea created by companies and advertisers hoping to sell their products.
The endless choice gives birth to anxiety in people’s lives. Buying something as basic as a coffee pot is not exactly ____53____. Easy access to a wide range of everyday goods leads to a sense of powerlessness in many people, ____54____ in the customer giving up and walking away, or just buying an unsuitable item that is not really wanted. Recent studies in England have shown that many electrical goods ____55____ in almost every family are not ____56____ needed. More difficult decision-making is then either avoided or trusted into the hands of the ____57____, lifestyle instructors, or advisors.
It is not just the availability of the goods that is the problem, but the speed with which new types of products come on the market. Advances in ____58____ and production help quicken the process. Products also need to have a short lifespan so that the public can be persuaded to replace them within a short time. The ____59____ example is computers, which are almost out-of-date once they are bought. This indeed makes selection a problem. So gone are the days when one could just walk with ease into a shop and buy one thing; no choice, no ____60____.

A new law was passed by Milan’s city council banning the sale of take-away food and drinks after midnight in some districts which are famous for their nightlife ____62____. The purpose of this unusual move is, according to the city council, to discourage night gathering in downtown areas.
The law inevitably has given rise to a number of protests, accusing that the government has ____63____ people’s normal lives. However, if you take into consideration the country’s ____64____ economy and its high unemployment rate, the local government’s fear of night assembling many be reasonable.
In fact, Milan’s law is only the strangest of a lot of restrictions on nightlife that have ____65____ in European cities recently. Madrid’s city center was declared a low-noise zone last September and the city council has been refusing to ____66____ bar and club licenses ever since.
Why do European cities deal so strictly with nightlife? It may be because Europe’s population is getting older and can no longer ____67____ late night activities within the neighborhood.
In the past, bars and clubs bloomed in European city centers, which were ____68____ to working class populations. But gradually, these people began to move out of the city centers and into the suburbs. Only the wealthy and the upper-class people can afford to live in ____69____ centers now but these people don’t go to bars and clubs to socialize. Instead, they consider fun-seekers who wander in their neighborhoods annoying. They also worry that bars and clubs will make their neighborhoods less ____70____ and devalue their housing property.

Some people succeed, while others may not. This is ____79____ some people possess certain qualities, which other do not.

Your colleagues will be happy to work with you, and your boss will give you more responsibility. Finally ____86____ you are a successful person, you will be able to look people in the eye and smile confidently.
Success is yours for the taking! Cheers!

As more women in the United States move up the professional ladder, more are finding it necessary to make business trips alone. Since this is new for many, some tips are certainly in order. If you are married, it is a good idea to encourage your husband and children to learn to cook a few simple meals while you are away. They will be much happier and probably enjoy the experience. If you will be eating alone a good meal, choose good restaurants. In the end, they will be much better for your digestion. You may also find it useful to call the restaurant in advance and state that you will be eating alone. You will probably get better service and almost certainly a better table. Finally, and most importantly, anticipate your travel needs as a businesswoman; this starts with lightweight luggage which you can easily manage even when fully packed. Take a folding case inside your suitcase; it will come in extremely handy for dirty clothes, as well as for business documents and papers you no longer need on the trip. And make sure you have a briefcase so that you can keep currently required papers separate. Obviously, experience helps, but you can make things easier on yourself from the first time by careful planning, so that right from the start you really can have a good trip!

It has been said before, but experiencing it myself has made me want to say it again: a smile can cross all language barriers.
I recently moved from Canada to a small city on the south coast of South Korea to work as a English teacher. My first few weeks in Chinhae were challenging. I knew only one fluent English speaker other than myself—my employer. So, having left my family and friends far away on a different continent and having moved to a city in which I was the only foreign English teacher, I felt a bit shaken.
At the grocery stores, I could not read the food packages and certainly did not know how to ask for help. ________ Such little frustrations began to add up and I soon felt homesick and tired. I longed for some familiar food, familiar sounds, anything familiar!
One night, after a long day at work, I was feeling particularly weary—My legs were aching and I wasn’t looking forward to cooking dinner. Just as I was about to push the key into the floor, the old woman who was the landlady called to me and signed me into her apartment. I didn’t understand a word she said, but I understood her smile. I followed her into her kitchen, which smelled like the wonderful Korean foods I was coming to love. After she had put many dishes of food on the table and had set me up with a glass of cola, she sat down across from me. We were both laughing the whole time at our complete inability to communicate in words. We did manage to have a small conversation, though. It went something like this:
“Canada?” She asked slowly, pointing at my chest.
“Yes,” I answered.
“Korea?” I said, pointing at her. We both laughed.
When it was time to leave, I said “thank you” in Korean, using some of the few words I had leaned. I went home to my apartment feeling less alone than I had expected to feel that evening. Chinhae felt less like a strange and frightening place, and more like a home. I don’t think the old landlady knew how much her smile and her wonderful food meant to me that evening, but perhaps someday I will be able to tell her.
126. Why did the author feel challenged during the first few weeks in Chinhae?
A. Chinhae is a small city.
B. Only her boss was kind to her.
C. Few people could communicate with her.
D. She had difficulty in teaching English in Korea.
127. Which of the following sentences can be put in the blank?
A. Nobody could help me.
B. I thought I’d better learn Korean.
C. The food at the grocery stores made me homesick.
D. Once I bought sugar, which I thought was salt.
128. The underlined word “weary” (in Paragraph 4) most probably means “________”,
A. excited B. lonely C. homesick D. tired
129. From the passage we can infer that ________.
A. the author will soon move back home
B. the author was deeply moved by the old lady
C. the author learned more Korean after the dinner
D. the old lady was very lonely because she had no children

I knew only one fluent English speaker other than myself—my employer. So, having left my family and friends far away on a different continent and having moved to a city in which I was the only foreign English teacher, I felt a bit shaken.
At the grocery stores, I could not read the food packages and certainly did not know how to ask for help. ________ Such little frustrations began to add up and I soon felt homesick and tired. I longed for some familiar food, familiar sounds, anything familiar!
One night, after a long day at work, I was feeling particularly weary—My legs were aching and I wasn’t looking forward to cooking dinner. Just as I was about to push the key into the floor, the old woman who was the landlady called to me and signed me into her apartment. I didn’t understand a word she said, but I understood her smile. I followed her into her kitchen, which smelled like the wonderful Korean foods I was coming to love. After she had put many dishes of food on the table and had set me up with a glass of cola, she sat down across from me. We were both laughing the whole time at our complete inability to communicate in words. We did manage to have a small conversation, though. It went something like this:
“Canada?” She asked slowly, pointing at my chest.
“Yes,” I answered.
“Korea?” I said, pointing at her. We both laughed.
When it was time to leave, I said “thank you” in Korean, using some of the few words I had leaned. I went home to my apartment feeling less alone than I had expected to feel that evening. Chinhae felt less like a strange and frightening place, and more like a home. I don’t think the old landlady knew how much her smile and her wonderful food meant to me that evening, but perhaps someday I will be able to tell her.
