23、   I grew up in an age when I had to wait for almost everything. Classic movies were shown on television. And, of course, one had to be home at the appointed time to watch them. “The Wizard of Oz” for example, was broadcast only once a year. The steadily heightening sense of expectation as the broadcast date approached was almost too much for my 10-year-old heart to bear.

And then there was money. The banks did business on weekdays only. They opened at 9 and closed at 4. You needed money but didn't make it to the bank on time? Well, check under the sofa cushions or borrow from family or friends.

Such was the world as recently as the 1970s. Everything seemed to operate on a strict clock, and the words “on demand” had no meaning. This was the way things worked, and it was all we knew.

And then, seemingly overnight, everything changed. It suddenly seemed as if I never had to be anywhere at an appointed time, because everything was available all the time. The changed times, on the other hand, have encouraged nothing less than a constant sense of urgency, which is ironic (讽刺性的): If we can have anything we want anytime we want it, should’t we be less hurried? The answer is that an “on demand” lifestyle has created an appetite for speed: If I can have something this fast, why can’t I have it faster? Recently I read a book that has “FSTR” (get it?) written across its cover. One of its metaphors (隐喻) was telling: First there was the fresh-squeezed lemon； then there was the lemonade mix; now we just buy the lemonade by the gallon (加仑).

And so, on this hot day, I went to the supermarket and bought three fresh lemons. I squeezed them into a tall glass. Then I filled the glass with cold water, ice, and a teaspoon of sugar. Fresh lemonade in hand, I went outside, sat in my lawn chair, and looked out over the river.

Yes, time passes quickly. But, now and then, it doesn’t have to.

【1】How did the young author feel about watching The Wizard of Oz?

A．Surprised.

B．Excited.

C．Touched.

D．Worried.

【2】What’s the author’s tone in writing about the book he read recently?

A．Humorous.

B．Optimistic.

C．Opposing.

D．Cautious.

【3】What does the author try to convey by making lemonade himself?

A．His enjoyment of spending a lazy day at home.

B．His disapproval of the demands of a hurried age.

C．His satisfaction of making use of modern technology.

D．His disappointment at the lemonade in the supermarket.

【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?

A．We waited, and it was worth it

B．We worry, but it makes no sense

C．Why does time pass quickly now?

D．How do we balance speed and happiness?

24、   Then the landlord began to examine the house. He and she were going to divorce, so it was obvious that they would not continue renting the house any more. Then the landlord began examining the house. After looking around, the landlord screamed, “The walls are full of nails! How could I rent the house to others?”

He said, “The room is too small, so we could only hang things on the walls.” The landlord didn’t listen to him and turned around up to the floor. She began looking around her familiar room. Four years ago, she became his bride here. There were several nails on the wall, on which hung his clothes yesterday. After he lived in the room, he removed all the clothes boxes and bought her a desk in the spared room because he knew she loved writing and drawing.

The landlord took toolkit down and tried to pull the nails out. After the nails were removed, the walls were left with numerous holes. All of a sudden, she felt terribly heartbroken as if her heart was pierced(刺破)through those holes and bleeding nonstop. She sprang from the seat and shouted, “Stop pulling the nails! We will continue renting the house and will only move away after we buy our own!” He looked at her with great surprise and then turned around, tearing over his face.

She finally came to understand that marriage was like wall and that all quarrels and “cold wars” were like the nails on the wall. When all the nails were removed, only a wall with numerous holes would be left. But if all the nails were still in their own places, the wall was still complete and reliable. But in the past, what she saw was only those nails.

They hung all the things back to the wall. He asked her, "Are you really willing to lead a tough life with me? " She patted away the ashes on hands and looked at those things satisfactorily, saying, "Yes! For me, it's not a suffering to live. "

A.Because her things would be thrown away.

B.Because she was shouted at by the landlord.

A.Couples should tolerate each other.

B.Couples shouldn't quarrel at all.

C.Quarrelling couples shouldn't live together.

D.There is no complete and reliable marriage.

【4】What is the best title of the passage?
