    You get all sorts of demands, and the mark of a good hotel is to supply whatever is asked for without sounding surprise. If a guest asks for rubber gloves. You don't ask why. You say, “No problem. What colour do you want?”
  There have been some demands which, much as I would have liked to fill, I couldn't. A Japanese businessman, for example, thought the manager of a hotel was like the captain of a ship so he asked me to marry him and the woman he loved. There was one time, however, we did help out. A young man thought that if he asked his girlfriend to marry him at the Ritz she would say yes. He asked us to put the ring in a cake, and she accepted.
  Top hotels are used more and more to impress. They are used for doing business. If you've got something to sell, take your clients(客户) to the best hotel where the surroundings are quite helpful. A friend of mine working at Savoy Hotel tells story about a man who gave him 5 pounds to say “Good morning, Mr. Smith” when he walked through the door with two other men. This he did, and could hear Mr. Smith saying, “I do wish they would leave me alone at this place.”
  According to Julian Payne, the most powerful people in any hotel are the porters, who carry bags for hotel guests. “Porters can do almost anything. They can get you tables at the best restaurants or tickets for a popular concert. Don't ask me how they do it or what their deal is because I don't know. Most of them have been there for years. They know more about the history of the hotel and the guests than anyone else. They are invaluable. A head porter will come in even on his day off so he can say hello to someone he remembers visiting the hotel years ago.”
56.When guests ask for something strange,the manager of a good hotel would think ______.
  A.how he can meet their needs
  B.why they have such demands
  C.what problems the hotel has
  D.who is the best person to go to
57.Which of the following examples explains “we did help out?”
  A.The hotel bought a ring for a young lady.
  B.A Japanese married the woman he loved.
  C.The manager once acted as a captain.
  D.A young lady agreed to marry her boyfriend.
58.Which of the following statements is true about the porters in expensive hotels?
A.They sell tickets for concerts.
B.They know how to make a good deal.
C.They know a lot about the hotels and the guests.
D.The come to work even on their days off.
59.By saying “I do wish they would leave me alone at this place”, Mr. Smith ______.
  A.showed that he disliked such people at the hotel
  B.gave the impression that he was a constant guest
  C.tried to make his clients feel sorry for him
  D.sounded as if he was tired of such greetings

Ⅳ.阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。
A
People in cities all over the world shop in supermarkets. Who decides what you buy in the supermarket? Do you decide? Does the supermarket decide?
When you enter the supermarket, you see shelves full of food. You walk in the aisles between the shelves. You push a shopping cart and put your food in it.
You probably hear soft, slow music as you walk along the aisles. This may be an attempt to please you, so you will enjoy shopping. Some supermarkets want to increase their profits by playing soft and slow music, because the slow music makes you walk slowly and you have more time to buy things.
Fresh fruit and vegetables are usually put near the entrance. When you arrive at the supermarket, you concentrate on the kinds of fruit and vegetables you need first. Once you've got that out of the way, you can relax and do the rest of the shopping without any hurry. Besides, if you see fresh goods first, it gives you a "feel good" impression of freshness, so you can not help spending your money.
Maybe you go to the meat department then. There is some meat on sale, and you want to find it. The manager of the supermarket knows where customers enter the meat department. The cheaper meat is at the other end of the meat department, away from where the customers enter. You have to walk past all the expensive meat before you find the cheaper meat. Maybe you will buy some of the expensive meat instead of the meat on sale.
Most of the food in supermarkets is very attractive. It all says "Buy me quickly!" to the customers. The fresh fruit and vegetables say "Buy me quickly!" as you walk by. The expensive meat says "Buy me quickly!" The supermarket tells you what to buy.
56. Some supermarkets play soft, slow music because it ________.
A. can help customers get the things they want
B. makes customers walk slowly and buy more
C. can make customers relaxed and happy
D. can tell customers exactly where to go
57. The manager knows ________.
A. where customers come from    B. which customers like slow music
C. where fresh meat should be put  D. which customers like cheap meat
58. When walking past the expensive meat, the customers will _______.
A. possibly buy some                     B. pay no attention to it
C. look for some cheap meat              D. feel uncomfortable
59. If you see fresh goods first in the supermarket, ________.
A. you know where to get things   B. it brings you good luck
C. it makes you spend less money  D. you’ll get a fresh impression
60. Supermarket managers make the food attractive so that ________.
A. the customers will buy more              B. it looks very expensive
C. the customers come often                D. it seems cheap and fine
