My color television has given me nothing but a headache．I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of a lot of clothes that wouldn't fit．I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model．I realized this day later，when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid．The set worked so beautifully when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night．Fortunately，I didn't get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed．
   Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static（靜電）noise．For some reason，when certain shows switched into a commercial，a loud noise would sound for a few seconds．Gradually，this noise began to appear during a show，and to get rid of it，I had to change to another channel and then change it back．Sometimes this technique would not work，and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound．I actually began to build up my arm muscles（肌肉）shaking my set．
   When neither of these methods removed the static noise，I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away．At last I ended up hitting the set with my fist，and it stopped working altogether．My trip to the repair shop cost me ＄ 62，and the set is working well now，but I keep expecting more trouble．

C
C

A．He got an older model than he had expected．
B．He couldn't return it when it was broken．

（2）Which of the following can best replace the phrase"signed off"in Paragraph 1？

D．showed all-night movies
（3）How did the author finally get his TV set working again？

B．By turning it on and off．
C．By switching channels．
D．By having it repaired．
（4）How does the author sound when telling the story？

  • 1．Ten years ago I used to be very fit （健康的）．I rode a bike to work and I got a lot of exercise at weekends．I used to play tennis a lot and go for long walks．In those days I didn't earn very much．I had a job in an office．It wasn't a very good job but I had a lot of time to do the things I enjoyed doing．
    Then，about eight years ago，I got a much better job．The pay was better，but the hours were a lot longer．I bought a car and drove to work every day．I began to take people out to lunch．And I began to put on weight，too．I stopped playing tennis and going for long walks at weekends because I just didn't have any time for things like that any more．
    There's a lot of stress （壓力） in my job．Perhaps that's why I started drinking more than I used to．For example，I used to have only half a glass of whisky when I got home，but then I started filling my glass to the top，and instead of having one glass，I would have several．I started smoking a lot，too．I never used to smoke at all．
    Two months ago I had a heart attack．At first I just couldn't believe it．Luckily it wasn't very serious．The doctor advised me to stop smoking and to eat less．He also advised me to work less and get more exercise．But I just haven't any time!My job takes everything out of me!
