12.根据以下资料，回答42-45题。 　　England is not a big country: from north to south and from east to west it is only about three hundred miles across．But for a small country it has a surprising range of climate．People who have never visited England or who have visited only one part of it often makes the mistake of thinking that it is a cold and wet country．Except for the summer months of June to September, this is probably true of the north of England and the Midlands．In the south, however, the climate is much more pleasant．One result is that when people retire from the job in the north, they often prefer to move down to the south. 　　Perhaps the warmest part of the country is the southwest, which consists of (is made up of) the counties of Devon and Cornwall, where palm trees, bamboo and many semitropical plants grow well．Flowers and vegetables ripen as much as a month earlier than those elsewhere．Farmers in the areas gain a higher price for their vegetables and flowers because they are ready earlier．In winter there may be several feet of snow in other parts of England but there will probably be no snow at all in the southwest．This may be one of the reasons why the southwest is one of England's most popular holiday areas.43 According to the passage, __.

For this was what the notice just inside the entrance promised. It said: "remember, once a week, one of our customers get free goods. This May Be Your Lucky Day!"For several weeks Mrs. Edwards hoped, like many of her friends, to be the lucky customer. Unlike her friends, she never gave up hoping. The cupboards in kitchen were full of things which she did not need. Her husband tried to advise her against buying things but failed. She dreamed of the day when the manager of the supermarket would approach her and say, "Madam, this is Your Lucky Day. Everything in your basket is free!"One Friday morning, after she had finished her shopping and had taken it to her car, she found that she had forgotten to buy any tea. She dashed back to the supermarket, got the tea and went towards the cash-desk. As she did so, she saw the manager of the supermarket approach her. "Madam,"he said, holding out his hand, "I want to congratulate you! You are out lucky customer and everything you have in your basket is free!"

Passage Four

I hear many parents complaining that their teenage children are rebelling. I wish it were so. At young age you ought to be growing away from you parents. You should be learning to stand on your own two feet.

But take a good look at the present rebellion. It seems that teenagers are a1l taking the same way of snowing that they disagree with their parents. Instead of striking out on their own，most of them are clutching at one another’s hands for reassurance.

They say they want to dress as they please，but all of them wear the same clothes. They set off in new directions in music ，but all of them end up huddled round listening to the same record.Their reason for thinking or acting in this and that way is that the crowd is doing it. (84)It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave and go his or her own way. These days every teenager can 1earn from the advertisements what a teenager should have and be. And

many of today ’s parents have come to award high marks for the popularity of their children. (85)All this adds up to a great barrier for the teenager who wants to find his or her own path.

But the barrier is worth climbing over. The path is worth following. You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party. You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records. You may have some thoughts that you don ’t care to share at once with your classmates. Well ，go to it. Find yourself. Be yourself. Popularity will come-will the people who respect you for who you are. That’s the only kind of popularity that really counts.During the teenage years, one should learn to _____.

15.I don't like talking on___telephone:I prefer writing___letters
