    Although Paris is often considered the city of romance， close to a million adults who call it home are single. Many single people say that France’s capital is one of the most difficult places to meet people. The complaints（抱怨）of this lonely group have inspired a new phenomenon known as “supermarket dating.”At Galerie Lafayette Gourmet，singles can shop for more than just the items on their grocery list. They can look for someone who has blue eyes， brown hair，and is 1.8 meters tall，or whatever may be on their romantic shopping list.

    At this paris location，single people of all ages can schedule their shopping for Thursday nights between 6:30 and 9:00 p.m. When they walk through the door，they pick up a purple basket to advise that they are looking for love. They try to arrive early because the baskets disappear quickly，and then they have to wait in line for their turn to wander the store aisles（过道）.

    With purple baskets in hand， shoppers can consider their romantic options while they pick out their groceries. When they are ready to pay， they can go to the checkout line for singles who want to chat.

    Most of the people who look for love in the supermarket are skeptical of Internet dating. They know that it is easy to embellish（美化）one’s appearance or to lie about one’s age over the Internet. The supermarket， on the other hand，is considered a safe and casual environment in which to meet a potential match. In addition， what one finds in another’s grocery basket can say a thing or two about that person’s character or intentions. Buying pet food can be a man’s way of showing a potential match that he has a sensitive side. Women who fill their baskets with low-fat food show their healthy style of living. These days it’s possible to find much more than food at a grocery store.

    6l. What do many single people in Pairs complain about?

    A. The difficulty in meeting people.

    B. The idea of supermarket dating.

    C. The items on their grocery list.

    D. The inconvenience in shopping.

    62. Which of the following can be inferred（推断）but is not clearly stated in the second paragraph?

    A. The dating supermarket is located in Paris.

    B. The dating supermarket is open only on Thursday evenings.

    C. People looking for love must get a basket of a particular colour

    D. The dating supermarket has very good business.

    63. How do love shoppers meet one another?

    A. They schedule their meeting in advance.

    B. They go through a special checkout.

    C. They pick out their groceries with great care.

    D. They dial the phone numbers on their shopping items.

    64. According to the writer，a possible way to win a woman’s heart is to              .

    A. pick up a purple basket            B. Buy low-fat food

    C. embellish your appearance D. buy pet food

    65. Why do the people prefer the supermarket dating to Internet dating?

    A. The supermarket dating is more convenient.

    B. The supermarket dating is more casual.

    C. The supermarket dating can be trusted more.

    D. The supermarket dating is less expensive.

                              Unique Tradition from UK

    Boxing Day

        This holiday, which is observed on December 26, is a unique part of the Christmas season in Great Britain, as well as other Commonwealth nations. Boxing Day comes from a tradition that began in the Middle Ages more than 800 years ago. On this day, English churches would open their ‘alms box’ and distribute its contents to needy members of the community. It was also a day for servants to celebrate the holidays with their families, having usually worked the day before. Today, Boxing Day is one of the twenty-two paid holidays received by most working Brits. Most people now spend Christmas Day with their family and reserve Boxing Day for exchanging gifts with friends. Although the government shuts down for the day, cinemas and theatres are open.

    Queen’s Telegram

        In the United States, if you make it to the ripe old age of 101 or 102, Willard Scott will wish you happy birthday on national television. In England, the queen herself will send her congratulations. This fairly new custom is known as "the Queen’s Telegram" and assures centenarians (people at least 100 years old) that they will receive a birthday telegram from the queen on their one-hundredth birthday. The telegram is so longed for by some Brits that one 98-year-old woman was recently proven to have faked her age by two years just to receive the telegram.

    High Tea

        High tea was first enjoyed by the English working class during the 1700s. This ritual (仪式) began as a practical attempt to hold off hunger pains between breakfast and supper, as eating just two daily meals was common at the time. It was called “high” tea because it was usually taken sitting on top stools in a tea shop or standing at a counter or buffet table. Today, high tea has become a more elegant and popular tradition that is practiced in fine hotels and restaurants around the world.

    Public Houses

        Visiting a pub is one of Britain’s oldest forms of entertainment. The idea for the first public houses was brought to Britain thousands of years ago by conquering Roman army. The first pubs served only wine, but after the discovery of hops（啤酒花） in the fourteenth century, pubs began to serve mainly beer and ale（麦芽酒）, as they do today.

       British pubs operate between 11 a.m. and 11 p.m. every day except Sunday, when they must close at 10:30 p.m. The drinking age in Britain is eighteen, but fourteen-year-olds may enter a pub unaccompanied if they order a meal.
