A farewell party was going on. Sylvia Calver hated being the center of any pubic show where she didn’t know anyone. It made her 36 hot and she always felt she wanted to go away somewhere. But on an occasion like this when she knew 37 , there was no 38 to feel shy. 39she had made up her mind to 40 people’s attention for once in her life. Unlike others, Sylvia didn’t have any sad feelings herself at leaving Palmeira Court Hotel or saying goodbye to its 41 — she had left so many other 42 , and known too many people in her life to get upset by such things now.
Yet this 43 was a particular occasion, and she hadn’t had so many of those in her 44. She had put on her 45 black dress and her long earrings. She had wanted to enjoy being the center of 46 for one evening, but now they had 47 old Miss Hutton of all people to give the 48 speech, whom she disliked. Even so, she thought there was no sense in getting 49 about it, for it was the first rule her 50 had given her — avoid all anxiety, take things easy. So, surprising herself by enjoying her own well-rounded white arm as 51 showed through the sleeve of her 52 dress, she took a taste of her drink and then sat back comfortably with her cigarette. And her doctor’s orders worked! For 53 out slowly, she put Miss Hutton off the end of her 54 with a cloud of tobacco smoke, so that she smiled to herself at the old girl’s funny expression. She 55 herself quite well that night, even to her own surprise.

Bernice Gallegos sat down one day this summer, as she does pretty much every day, and began listing items on eBay．She dug into a box and pulled out a baseball card．She stopped for a moment and admired the picture．“Red Stocking B．B．Club of Cincinnati,” the card read, under the reddish brown color photo of 10 men with their socks pulled up to their knees．
As a collector and seller, it's her job to spot old items that might have value today．It's what Bernice, 72, and her husband, Al Gallegos, 80, have been doing since 1974 at their California antique （古玩） store．
This card, she figured, was worth selling on eBay．She took a picture, wrote a description and put it up for auction （拍卖）．She put a $10 price tag on it, deciding against $15 because it would have cost her an extra 20 cents．Later that night she got a few odd inquiries—someone wanting to know whether the card was real, someone wanting her to end the auction and sell him the card immediately．
The card is actually 139 years old．Sports card collectors call the find "extremely rare" and estimate the card could fetch five, or perhaps, six figures at auction．
Just like that, Bernice is the least likely character ever for a rare-baseball card story．"I didn't even know baseball existed that far back," Gallegos says, "I don't think that I've ever been to a baseball game．" The theory is that the card came out of a storage space they bought a few years back．It is not uncommon in their line of work to buy the entire contents of storage units for around $200．
When she met with card trader Rick Mirigian, she found out what the card was—an 1869 advertisement with a picture of the first professional baseball team, the Cincinnati Red Stockings．
"When I came to meet her and she took it out of a sandwich bag and she was smoking a cigarette, I almost fainted," Mirigian says．"They've uncovered a piece of history that few people will ever be able to imagine．That card is history．It's like unearthing a Mona Lisa or a Picasso．"
What can we conclude from Paragraph 3?
A．Bernice had to pay some fees for her card on eBay．
B．Bernice wanted to end the auction that night．
C．Bernice decided to sell the card for $15．
D．eBay charged her 20 cents for the card．
The underlined word "fetch" in Paragraph 4 most probably means "____"．
A．go and bring B．add up to C．go down to D．be sold for
From the passage, we may learn that ____．
A．Bernice is a baseball fan
B．Bernice is the last person to purchase the rare-baseball card
C．Bernice unexpectedly became the owner of the rare-baseball card
D．Bernice didn't realize the value of the card until she put it up for auction
What would be the best title for the passage?
A．A Surprisingly Valuable Discovery B．Be mice Gallegos—A Lucky Collector
C．Sports Card Collectors D．The History of the Baseball Card

When you’re lying on the white sands of the Mexican Rivera, the stresses (压力) of the world seem a million miles away. Hey, stop! This is no vacation—you have to finish something.
Here lies the problem for travel writer and food critic (评论家) Edie Jarolim. “I always loved traveling and always liked to eat, but it never occurred to me that I could make money doing both of those things,” Jarolim said. Now you can read her travel advice everywhere--- in Arts and Antiques, in Brides, or in one of her three books, The Complete Idiot Travel Guide to Mexican Beach Resorts.
Her job in travel writing began some eight years ago. After getting a PhD in English in Canada, she took a test for Frommer’s travel guides, passed it, and got the job. After working at Frommer’s, Jarolim worked for a while at Rough Guides in London, then Fodor’s where she fell so in love with a description of the Southwest of the U.S. that she moved there.
Now as a travel writer, she spends one-third of her year on the road. The rest of the time is spent completing her tasks and writing reviews of restaurants at home in Tucson, Arizona.
As adventurous as the job sounds, the hard part is fact-checking all the information. Sure, it’s great to write about a tourist attraction, but you’d better get the local museum hours correct or you could really ruin someone’s vacation.
1.What is most difficult for Jarolim?
|
A．Working in different places to collect information. |
|
B．Checking all the facts to be written in the guides. |
|
C．Finishing her work as soon as possible. |
|
D．Passing a test to write travel guides. |
2.What do we know about Jarolim from the text?
|
A．She is successful in her job. |
|
B．She finds her life full of stresses. |
|
C．She spends half of her time traveling. |
|
D．She is especially interested in museums. |
3.What would be the best title for the text?
|
A．Adventures in Travel Writing |
B．Working as a Food Critic |
|
C．Travel Guides on the Market |
D．Vacationing for a Living |
