   We'd play a card game for hours until one team proved 2 over all other sides. 3 , my sister Martie and I won,and when we had beaten every other 4 ,we'd sing and even dance. Yes,we were 5 . The kids always put out cookies and milk for Santa,and my dad would sit down and color a picture with his grandchildren to 6 it for Santa Claus. And then we'd 7 every person in the family to open just one 8 . After everything settled down,my father would read the story of Christmas, 9 us all of the true meaning of Christmas. Our Christmas Eves are a little 10 now as my parents have moved to heaven and my girls are in college,but December 24 is still 11 .

   Your local grocery store is a psychological minefield E) , where even the bananas are ripe with mystery.

   1. Southpaws (左撇子) have an invisible (看不見(jiàn)的) advantage 

   You've probably seen that stores keep go-to items — produce,meats,dairy — on the outer edge. But did you notice that most of them are set up to make you run counterclockwise(逆時(shí)針) ?Ninety percent of us are right-handed,so we buy more when it's counterclockwise. You'11 also often find the dairy section in the back left comer: Because dairy is likely on your list,stores make sure you take the longest route to get there. In fairness,it's also a more convenient place to put a fridge.

   2. Everything is in its place 

   It's safe to say that nothing you see on a shelf is there by chance. The cookies on sale at the end of a passage are likely the result of smart product placement. More expensive items are usually placed at an adult's eye level,while colorflil treats and other products for kids are positioned lower — to catch the attention of children.

   3. Time goes by so slowly 

   Stores rarely have windows or clocks. With no reference to the outside world,customers can easily lose track of how long they,ve been there so that they can buy more. Grocery stores may use another trick to control your sense of time: small floor tiles (瓷磚) .

   4. Goods are an art form 

   Grocers know exactly what shade of banana you,re most likely to buy. To ensure the bananas on display are the closest to this shade,stores use a ripeness scale that ranges from one (all green) to seven (yellow with brown spots) . Some stores even use special lighting to make bananas look more appealing. As for the water sprayed on the other produce? It makes veggies look fresh,but keeping them wet actually makes them rot faster. It also makes produce heavier — and therefore pricier.

6. Why do stores usually put dairy in the back left comer?

   A. Because it is a quiet place.

   B. To make people buy more.

   C. To attract people's attention.

   D. Because most people are right-handed.

7. You are more likely to find toys.

   A. in comers

   B. on lower shelves

   C. at an adult's eye level

   D. at the end of a passage

8. Why are there usually no windows or clocks in stores?

   A. They are useless.

   B. There is no space for them.

   C. To make customers stay longer.

   D. To allow customers to enjoy themselves.

9. Stores use special lighting to make bananas .

   A. heavier   B. look fresh

   C. rot slower   D. more attractive

10. Which can be the best title for the text?

   A. Secrets of stores

   B. Advantages of stores

   C. How to shop in stores

   D. How to operate a store

   Two days before Christmas,I was shopping in a local grocery store. I bought a lot of vegetables and some food for my two children. My cart was full as I entered the checkout lane(付款通道) . 1  

   It was beginning to snow and I found that the lady looked worried. 2 I turned back and insisted she go before me. She was surprised and then she thanked me sincerely.

   3 We took advantage of this little time and had a nice chat about kindness. I told her that she seemed close to my mother's age and I hoped that someone would do the same for her.

   After her goods were tallied(清點(diǎn)), she was handed a receipt. Her receipt had a message that she would receive a special gift for a child at customer services. 4 

   As I stood there,I felt that there may have been a child that would benefit from that gift in her own family or circle of friends and realized that one act of kindness could have a chain reaction. Had I denied myself that opportunity to practice this random act,I would have received the “free gift” receipt. 5 Furthermore,by allowing myself the opportunity to show generosity,I also received a gift 一 the satisfaction of helping others.

   A. Seeing this,she was delighted.

   B. She thought I was just telling a joke.

   C. But I knew in my heart that she needed it more.

   D. It occurred to me that I should do something for her.

   E. There were still several people waiting in line before us.

   F. A little elderly lady was behind me with a full cart as well.

   G. I was a little worried because I would have to wait for at least ten minutes.

   Repeat a positive phrase. 4 Since your cheering section can't sit with you during the test,you’ re going to have to raise your own morale (士氣) . What is a good strategy? Try a positive phrase like,u\ can do this,” or “I deserve to achieve my goals." Who knows the result? You may just start believing it.

   B. Set realistic expectations.

   C. They can contribute to your anxiety.
