A
I fell in love with England because it was quaint (古雅)—all those little houses , looking terribly old—fashioned but nice , like dolls’ houses . I loved the countryside and the pubs , and I loved London . I’ve slightly changed my mind after seventeen years because I think it’s an ugly town now .
Things have changed . For everybody , England meant gentlemen , fair play , and good manners . The fair play is going , unfortunately , and so are the gentlemanly attitudes and good manners-people shut doors heavily in your face and politeness is disappearing .
I regret that there are so few comfortable meeting places . You’re forced to live indoors . In Paris I go out much more , to restaurants and nightclubs . To meet friends here it usually has to be in a pub , and it can be difficult to go there alone as a woman . The cafes are not terribly nice .
As a woman , I feel unsafe here . I spend a bomb on taxis because I will not take public transport after 10 p. m. I used to use it , but now I’m afraid .
The idea of family seems to be more or less non-existent in England . My family is well united and that’s typically French . In Middlesex I had a neighbor who is 82 now . His family only lived two miles away , but I took him to France for Christmas once because he was always alone .
41．The writer doesn’t like London because she .
A．is not used to the life there now B．has lived there for seventeen years
C．prefers to live in an old-fashioned house D．has to be polite to everyone she meets there
42．Where do people usually meet their friends in England ?
A．In a cafe. B．In a restaurant . C．In a nightclub . D．In a pub .
43．The underlined part “it” (in Para .4) refers to .
A．a taxi B．the money C．a bomb D．public transport
44．The writer took her neighbour to France for Christmas because he .
A．felt lonely in England B．had never been to France
C．was from a typical French family D．didn’t like the British idea of family

BEIJING(Associated Press ) China has a growing middle class , a tradition of expecting education and 21 million new babies every year . Selling educational toys should be easy .
While China may be the world’s biggest toy-maker , much of the best is exported . Department stores here do not have enough high-quality toys . It is said that the demand for educational toys is low .

BabyCare works basically together with doctors in Beijing hospitals . People who join the company’s “mother’s club” get lectures and newsletters on baby and child development at no extra cost —if they agree to spend 18 dollars a month on the company’s educational toys and childcare books .
“We want to build a seven-year relationship with those people,” said Matthew J. Estes , BabyCare’s president . “It starts during pregnancy , when the anxiety and needs are highest .” Baby Care works on a one-to-one basis . Doctors, nurses ,and teachers—paid by Baby Care—advise parents , explaining toys that are designed for children at each stage of development to age six .
BabyCare opened its first store in China last June in a shopping center in central Beijing and another near Beijing Zoo. It plans to have 80 stores in China within six years .
It is a new model for China and develops a market in young children’s education and health that no other companies are in .

Penguins are among Nature’s most endearing (可爱的) creatures and , for a bird that is not able to fly , the penguin has had a very successful career .
