3．Conflict is on the menu tonight at the café La Chope.This evening，as on every Thursday night，psychologist Maud Lehanne is leading two of France's favorite pastimes，coffee drinking and the "talking cure".Here they are learning to get in touch with their true feelings.It isn't always easy.They customers - some thirty Parisians who pay just under ＄2（plus drinks） per session-care quick to intellectualize（高談闊論），slow to open up and connect. "You are forbidden to say 'one feels，' or 'people think'，" Lehanne told them. "Say 'I think，' 'Think me'."
But Lehanne's psychology café is about more than knowing oneself：It's trying to help the city's troubled neighborhood cafes.Over the years，Parisian cafes have fallen victim to changes in the French lifestyle-longer working hours，a fast food boom and a younger generation's desire to spend more time at home.Dozens of new theme cafes appear to change the situation.Cafes focused around psychology，history，and engineering are catching on，filling tables well into the evening.
The city's psychology cafes，which offer great comfort，are among the most popular places.Middle-aged homemakers，retirees，and the unemployed come to such cafes to talk about love，anger，and dreams with a psychologist.And they come to Lehanne's group just to learn to say what they feel. "There's a strong need in Paris for communication，" says Maurice Frisch，a cafe La Chope regular who works as a religious instructor in a nearby church. "People have few real friends.And they need to open up." Lehanne says she'd like to see psychology cafes all over France. "If people had normal lives，these cafes wouldn't exist"，she says， "If life weren't a battle，people wouldn't need a special place just to speak." But them，it wouldn't be France.

9．閱讀下面材料，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開頭語續(xù)寫兩段，使之構(gòu)成一篇完整的短文。續(xù)寫的詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右。
The Make-up Guy Dave was a make-up artist who regularly held makeup artistry classes at the local community college. He was well known as an excellent trainer and enjoyed great popularity.
Usually， the majority of his students were middle-aged housewives， who wanted to fine-tune their make-up skills so as to make themselves more attractive. But this time， it was beyond him that his class was attended by a man as well.
The new student was a gentleman in his best years with a seemingly boundless interest in make-up artistry. He was keen to learn as much as he possibly could and asked questions whenever and wherever possible. He was so absorbed in learning that he wouldn't stop until he was satisfied with the result of his work.
Understandably，the man was the number one subject of conversation when the other women were alone. Speculations（猜測）quickly started to spread. Why did he learn make-up？Was he to seek for a woman to be his life partner？ How about my neighbor's youngest daughter？ Why on earth would he attend such a woman class？ Who could it be？
Doubts like this came crowding in. The community college was placed in a remote rural area，which was why the other participants were quite doubtful of the man's intentions. Throughout the lessons， ignoring the curious women around him， the man carefully listened and wrote everything down he learned，leaving the women more and more curious and puzzled.
When the day and class were slowly coming to an end，the gossiping women simply could not hide their curiosity any longer， for they knew it was time to remove their doubts，otherwise…Finally，one of them couldn't resist her curiosity， so she picked up the courage and asked him why he was so interested in make-up artistry.
What followed was a dead silence. After what seemed a century，he slowly opened his mouth and here came the most inspiring beautiful reply.
Paragraph 1：
He said his beloved wife partially lost her eyesight because of diabetes（糖尿?。゛nd she was no longer able to apply her make-up.________.
Paragraph 2：
So he decided to take the course to surprise his wife.________.組卷：4引用：2難度：0.5
