题文
love charity(慈善) shops and so do lots of other people in Britain because you find quite a few of them on every high street. The charity shop is a British institution, selling everything from clothes to electric goods, all at very good prices. You can get things you won’t find in the shops anymore. The thing I like best about them is that your money is going to a good cause and not into the pockets of profit-driven companies, and you are not damaging the planet, but finding a new home for unwanted goods.The first charity shop was opened in 1947 by Oxfam. The famous charity’s appeal to aid postwar Greece had been so successful it had been flooded with donations(捐赠物). They decided to set up a shop to sell some of these donations to raise money for that appeal. Now there are over 7,000 charity shops in the UK. My favourite charity shop in my hometown is the Red Cross shop, where I always find children’s books, all 10 or 20 pence each.
Most of the people working in the charity shops are volunteers, although there is often a manager who gets paid. Over 90% of the goods in the charity shops are donated by the public. Every morning you see bags of unwanted items outside the front of shops, although they don’t encourage this, rather ask people to bring things in when the shop is open.
The shops have very low running costs: all profits go to charity work. Charity shops raise more than ￡110 million a year, funding（资助）medical research, overseas aid, supporting sick and poor children, homeless and disabled people, and much more. What better place to spend your money? You get something special for a very good price and a good moral sense. You provide funds to a good cause and tread lightly on the environment. （08天津卷）

答案
小题1:C
小题2:D
小题3:A
小题4:C
解析
本文主要介绍了慈善商店的基本特色以及慈善商店的创建与发展。
小题1:推理判断题。由第一段第四句"The thing I like best about them is that your money is
going to a good cause”“我“最喜欢慈善商店的一点是你的钱用于有用的事业可推断出C
项为正确答案。"goodwill”含义为“好意”
小题2:事实细节题。由第二段第二、三两句"the famous charity’s appeal to aid postwar Greece
had been so successful……”可知第一个慈善商店的建立是为了筹钱援助战后的希腊。而从文章的第一段可知作者是英国人。因此，D 项正确。C项中的"patients”未提。
小题3:事实细节题。由第四段第一句"The shops have very low running costs”可知A项正确。"running”相当于"operating”含义为“运营”由第三段第一句中"volunteer（志愿者）"可知B项不正确。由第三段第二句可知慈善商店中90%以上的商品为公众捐赠，但并不能推出是“二手货”，故C 项不正确。D项未提
小题4:主旨大意题。本文的最后一句为主题句。由"a good moral sense (好的道德感)"和"You provide funds to a good cause（你为一项有意义的事业提供资金）"可知 C项为最好题目。"Charity Shop: Where You Buy To Donate. （慈善商店----一个买东西就相当于捐款的地方。）

【备考提醒】
为了保证较高准确率，建议同学们做好以下几点：
1、保持正常的考试心态。笔者在教学中发现，越是容易的试题，同学们越是容易失分。为什么呢？因为在这种情况下，同学们极易产生麻痹思想，认为题目好做，就不引起高度重视，于是思维不发散、不周密。而命题人就是利用同学们的这一弱点，设计陷阱题。所以，无论试题难易与否，我们都要保持正常的考试心态。试题容易，不欣喜；试题难，不悲观。
2、根据前面讲到的方法，认认真真、细细心心做好事实细节题。
3、做好语义转换题。这类题是根据英语中一词多义和某些词语在文中能表达一定的修辞意义的原则而设计的。要求同学们解释某生词的含义，确定多义词或短语在文中的意思，确认文中的某个代词所指代的对象，或者对英语中特有的表达、格言、谚语进行解释。这种题要求同学们一定要根据上下文猜测词义或理解句子，切不可望文生义。
4、做好简单推理判断题。简单推理判断题要以表面文字为前提，以具体事实为依据进行推理，做出判断。这种推理方式比较直接，只要弄清事实，即可结合常识推断出合理的结论。
