Could I afford it? No, I had nothing in the world but a million-pound note. So I forced myself to go on by. But soon I was drawing back again. The temptation troubled me a lot. I must have passed that shop six times during that struggle. At last I gave in, I had to. I asked if they had a cheap suit. The fellow I spoke to made no answer at first, looked me up and down, noticed that I was almost in rags(衣衫褴褛), then said, “Just a minute.” I waited till he had finished his work. Then he took me into a back room to choose a cheapest suit for me. I put it on. It didn’t fit, but it was new and I was anxious to have it, so I said shyly: “Could you wait a few days for the money? I haven’t any small change on me.” The fellow looked at me coldly and said, “Oh, you haven’t. Well, of course, I know that gentlemen like you carry only large notes.” I was angry, and said, “My friend, you shouldn't judge a stranger always by the clothes he wears. I am quite able to pay for this suit. I simply didn't wish to put you to the trouble of changing a large note. ” “Why do you think we can’t change your note? Instead, we can.” I handed the note to him and said: “Oh, very well, I am sorry.” He received it with a smile, and then as he looked at the note, his smile froze. Realizing what was going on, the owner of the shop gave a low whistle and talked excitedly, as if to himself. “To sell such a suit as that to a millionaire! Tod’s a fool. Please get those clothes off, sir. Wait till you see what we’ll make for you to your own measure.” Before I could get in a word he had measured me, and was giving orders for evening suits, morning suits, shirts and all sorts of things. 34.

D When I was growing up in America, I was ashamed of my mother’s Chinese English. Because of her English, she was often treated unfairly. People in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, pretended（假装） not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her. My mother has realized the disadvantages of her English as well. When I was fifteen, she used to have me call people on phone to pretend I was she. I was forced to ask for information or even to yell at people who had been rude to her. One time I had to call her stockbroker（股票经纪人）. I said in a voice that was not very convincing, “This is Mrs. Tan.” And my mother was standing beside me, whispering loudly, “Why he doesn’t send me the check. It’s already two weeks late.” And then, in perfect English I said: “I’m getting rather anxious .You agreed to send the check two weeks ago, but it hasn’t arrived.” Then she talked more loudly. “What does he want? I’ll come to New York and say it in front of his boss.” And so I turned to the stockbroker again, “I can’t accept any more excuses. If I don’t receive the check immediately, I have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week.” The next week we ended up in New York. While I was sitting there red-faced, my mother, the real Mrs. Tan, was shouting to his boss in her broken English. When I was a teenager, my mother’s broken English embarrassed (使困窘) me. But now, I see it differently. To me, my mother’s English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural. It is my mother tongue. Her language, as I hear it, is clear and direct. It was the language that helped me form the way I saw things, expressed ideas, and made sense of the world. 42. Why was the author’s mother poorly treated? A. She was unable to speak good English. B. She was often misunderstood. C. She was not clearly heard. D. She was not very polite. 43. From Paragraph 2, what can we know about the author? A. She was good at pretending. B. She was rude to the stockbroker. C. She was ready to help her mother. D. She was unwilling to phone for her mother. 44. Even after the author made the phone call to the stockbroker,__________. A. they forgave the stockbroker B. they failed to get the check C. they moved to New York immediately D. they wrote to their boss at once 45. What does the author think of her mother’s English now? A. It’s hard for her to understand. B. It embarrasses her. C. It helps her understand the world. D. It helps her forgive rude people. 第Ⅱ卷（非选择题 共60分） 第II卷共36小题，答案请按要求用0.5毫米黑色签字笔写在在答题卡上 四、词汇（本题共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) A.请根据括号中的中文提示、英文释义或句意，写出句中所缺单词，使句子通顺。 46.
