    "Opinion" is a word that is used carelessly today. It is used to refer to matters of taste, belief, and judgment. This casual use would probably cause little confusion if people didn’t attach too much importance to opinion. Unfortunately, most do attach great importance to it. "I have as much right to my opinion as you to yours, '' and ''Everyone’s entitled(授予…权利) to his opinion, '' are common expressions. In fact, anyone who would challenge another's opinion is likely to be branded intolerant.
    Is that label（标签）accurate? Is it intolerant to challenge another's opinion? It depends on what definition of opinion you have in mind. For example, you may ask a friend ''What do you think of the new Ford cars?" And he may reply, "In my opinion, they're ugly." In this case, it would not only be intolerant to challenge his statement, but foolish. For it's obvious that by opinion he means his personal preference, a matter of taste. And as the old saying goes, ''It's pointless to argue about matters of taste."
    But consider this very different use of the term, A newspaper reports that the Supreme Court has delivered its opinion in a controversial case. Obviously the justices did not state their personal preferences, their mere likes and dislikes. They stated their considered judgment, painstakingly arrived at after thorough inquiry and careful consideration.
    Most of what is referred to as opinion falls somewhere between these two extremes. It is not an expression of taste. Nor is it careful judgment. Yet it may contain elements of both. It is a view or belief more or less casually arrived at, with or without examining the evidence.
    ?? Is everyone entitled to his opinion? Of course, this is not only permitted, but guaranteed. We are free to act on our opinions only so long as, in doing so, we do not harm others.
    72. Which of the following statements is TRUE, according to the author?
    A. Everyone has a right to hold his own opinion.
    B. Free expression of opinions often leads to confusion.
    C. Most people tend to be careless in forming their opinions.
    D. Casual use of the word "opinion" often brings about quarrels.
    73. According to the author, who of the following would be labelled as intolerant?
    A. Someone who turns a deaf ear to others' opinions.
    B. Someone who can't put up with others' tastes.
    C. Someone who values only their own opinions.
    D. Someone whose opinion harms other people.
    74. The new Ford cars are mentioned as an example to show that ________.
    A. it is foolish to criticize a famous brand
    B. one should not always agree to others' opinions
    C. personal tastes are not something to be challenged
    D. it is unwise to express one's likes and dislikes in public
    75. Considered judgment is different from personal preference in that ________.
    A. it is stated by judges in the court
    B. it reflects public like and dislikes
    C. it is a result of a lot of controversy (争论，争议)
    D. it is based on careful thought

    (C)
    Sometimes people recall past events differently from how they happened. Have you ever confused dates and events from your life, or people’s names? Don’t be too hard on yourself if this is the case; it happens to almost everyone. Every day, our brain processes an amazing amount of information. In fact, all our experiences are based on the way our brain interprets the information it receives from our senses. It is impossible to store all of this information, so some of it gets lost. The parts that remain make up our memories. All our thoughts and memories depend on the way our senses work, and we cannot always trust everything our senses tell us.
    If you have ever tried to make your own short film on a digital camera, you will have noticed that the images you record are often blurry(模糊不清). To stop the same thing from happening when we see things with our own eyes, our brain is always filling in the blanks. Before our eyes can even focus on an object, our brain has created its own picture of it so that we can move smoothly from looking at one thing to another without the world looking strange. If we are moving quickly or are not focusing properly, our brain may not correctly guess what is around us.
    Memory is the way we store the information that our senses have experienced. As we have discussed above, our senses do not always see things accurately, so our memory is just how we store our interpretations of these experiences. When our brain takes in new experiences, it uses the information we retrieve from our memory as a reference. This means that we often do not remember the details of things but just the important parts. When we look at something, we often do not really look closely at it, but we merely look at the different hints that help us indentify it.
    This also happens with our hearing and speaking. It is natural for students of English to confuse the word “kitchen”, with the familiar word “chicken”. As the sounds are similar, the mind mistakenly identifies the new word with the one that is familiar. This is perhaps the most common reason why people make mistakes when they learn a new language. 
    72. Sometimes things people remember are quite different from how they really happened because ______.
    A. not all people are smart enough                            B. the main part of the information gets lost
    C. people are too strict with themselves            D. information was processed incompletely
    73. Taking the short film on a digital camera for an example, the author means _____.
    A. images recorded by cameras could not be accurate
    B. brain may form an imagery picture without reference
    C. blurry pictures are caused by too fast camera movements
    D. the process of vision is an interpretive construct by the brain
    74. The underlined word “retrieve” in Paragraph 3 probably means ______.
    A. recall                    B. change            C. borrow                 D. differ
    75. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE in terms of memory?
    A. Memory is exactly what senses have experienced.
    B. Memories are made up of the information remaining in minds.
    C. Memory is the way to store information experienced by senses.
    D. Memories sometimes can be obstacles to learning something new.

    How old was I? I can’t recall. Maybe I was only 10, about to turn 11, making it the first Christmas after my father left, and left me to fill that sad, shattered place in my mother’s heart. Whenever it was, it was the Christmas the magic changed: the year I stopped being a wide-eyed child and tried eagerly to play Father Christmas myself. It was the Christmas of the coat.
    Mom first saw the coat at Tobias, one of the nicer women’s stores in our town’s little mall. It was a deep forest green. A long, heavy, wool dress coat with side pockets. Mom pulled it out from the rack（架） and held it up. “Long enough,”she murmured and slipped it on.
    “I need a new coat,” Mom smiled before the three-way mirror. She made any clothing look good, and this coat hugged her just right. She glanced at the price tag, then hung the coat back on the rack, pausing once more to feel the smooth brush of wool.
    Eighty-seven dollars. But I didn’t think twice. As we moved on through the mall, I found some excuse to come back and ask one of the Tobias ladies to hold the coat.
    At last I had the coat. The store ladies wrapped it in their biggest box with bright blue paper and a thick silver ribbon. I don’t remember how I got it home, but I can still feel the bursting excitement and pride that filled me each time I glimpsed at the beautifully wrapped gift hiding under my sweater. I would occasionally dig it out just to hold the box, to imagine the big space it would take up under our tree. Here it was ─ joy, peace, and love ─ all wrapped up, waiting for Mom’s loving gratitude.
    36. That the writer’s mother felt the coat before they left the store showed that ____.
    A. the coat was of good quality                 B. the coat was too expensive
    C. she liked the coat very much                D. she’d get it in the end
    37. The writer tried to act as Father Christmas in order to ____.
    A. show he grew up                                               B. show he missed his father
    C. bring his mother a surprise                            D. enjoy himself
    38. The writer hid the coat under his sweater in order to ____.
    A. imagine the space taken up under the Christmas tree
    B. feel the strong feeling to his mother on Christmas
    C. give his mother a big surprise on Christmas Day

    39. What can be the best title of this passage?
    A. A Merry Christmas                                  B. Christmas of the Coat
