A mile or so before they reached Oxford, they stopped the car on top of a hill from w
hich they could see the whole of the city spread out before them. The spires(塔尖) and the domes(圆顶), the college walls and towers looked as peaceful as when they were first built, hundreds of years ago.

When they drove down, over the River Thames and into the city centre, they found it was not so peaceful after all! The main streets were packed with traffic: cars, lorries, coaches full of tourists and the bicycles which the students use to get about. But as soon as they had managed to park the car and get away from the roaring traffic, they discovered a completely different world. Narrow cobbled (铺圆石子的) streets which had hardly changed since the Middle Ages ran between the high college walls of grey or yellow stone. Inside the great double gates of each college they found quiet squares of grass, the library, the dining-hall and the rooms where the students and teachers live. Many colleges had the most beautiful gardens where one could sit and read, talk work or dream.

Most of the students, or undergraduates, wore informal clothes: sports coats, or pullovers, and slacks. But some of them were wearing their black gowns. George explained that they had to wear these when going to lectures or to their weekly meeting with their tutor, or teacher. Tom and Anne were very surprised to see a few young men dressed in formal black suits, with ties ,gowns and scholars' caps. Anne asked whatever they were doing, wearing evening dress in the morning ! George laughed and said that this was the official dress for taking examinations, many of which were held in June.

They stopped the car on top of a hill in order to ______.

A.see the spires and the domes

B.see Oxford

C.to park their car

D.to see the colleges

Over the past century, all kinds of unfairness and discrimination have been condemned or m
ade illegal. But one insidious form. continues to thrive: alphabetism. This, for those as yet unaware of such a disadvantage, refers to discrimination against those whose surnames begin with a letter in the lower half of the alphabet.

It has long been known that a taxi firm called AAAA cars has a big advantage over Zodiac cars when customers thumb through their phone directories. Less well known is the advantage that Adam Abbott has in life over Zoe Zysman. English names are fairly evenly spread between the halves of the alphabet. Yet a suspiciously large number of top people have surnames beginning with letters between A and K.

Thus the American president and vice-president have surnames starting with B and C respectively; and 26 of George Bush's predecessors (including his father) had surnames in the first half of the alphabet against just 16 in the second half. Even more striking, six of the seven heads of government of the G7 rich countries are alphabetically advantaged (Berlusconi, Blair, Bush, Chirac, Chretien and Koizumi). The world's three top central bankers (Greenspan, Duisenberg and Hayami) are all close to the top of the alphabet, even if one of them really uses Japanese characters. As are the world's five richest men (Gates, Buffett, Allen, Ellison and Albrecht).

Can this merely be coincidence? One theory, dreamt up in all the spare time enjoyed by the alphabetically disadvantaged, is that the rot sets in early. At the start of the first year in infant school, teachers seat pupils alphabetically from the front, to make it easier to remember their names. So short-sighted Zysman junior gets stuck in the back row, and is rarely asked the improving questions posed by those insensitive teachers. At the time the alphabetically disadvantaged may think they have had a lucky escape. Yet the result may be worse qualifications, because they get less individual attention, as well as less confidence in speaking publicly.

The humiliation continues. At university graduation ceremonies, the ABCs proudly get their awards first; by the time they reach the Zysmans most people are literally having a ZZZ. Shortlists for job interviews, election ballot papers, lists of conference speakers and attendees: all tend to be drawn up alphabetically, and their recipients lose interest as they plough through them.

What does the author intend to illustrate with AAAA cars and Zodiac cars?

A.A kind of overlooked inequality.

B.A type of conspicuous bias.

C.A type of personal prejudice.

D.A kind of brand discrimination.

I always have a difficult time choosing original birthday presents. My imagination never s
eems to get beyond ties, handkerchiefs, or pairs of socks. But, strangely enough, it did not take me long to decide on Tom's birthday present. For the first time in my life I had a good idea——I would buy him a bottle of champagne. Before the party began, Tom suggested that I should open the bottle. I put it between my knees and began to pull, but it remained firmly corked. Soon a crowd gathered round to watch the fight between me and the bottle. I could hear all sorts of" helpful" suggestions from the guests like "Break the top off", "Use your teeth!" etc. But I was losing the bottle. We were struggling on the floor together, when all of a sudden there was a loud" pop!" and the cork shot up into the air, while the angry bottle showered everybody with champagne!

What is NOT mentioned as a birthday present according to the author?

A.Ties.

B.Books.

C.Handkerchiefs.

D.Pairs of socks.

James: If I place an order now, when would you be able to ship it ?

Lin: We should be able to get that off to you right away.Are you ready to place your order now?
