请认真阅读下列短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项.

A

1n 2007.five young people in the American state of Massachusetts developed an idea. The team knew that the world is filled with mobile phones.About eighty percent of all people are said to live within reach of a wireless telephone signal.The idea was to use mobile phones and the Internet to connect job seekers with employers.The young people wrote a business plan and formed a company called Assured Labor.

Assured Labor won a development competition at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology

(MIT).Three of the founders were graduate students there. ?

Assured Labor is an electronic market place.It has two parts.One is for the United States.That operation was launched in January in Boston.It links people with employers offering temporary jobs.

The other arm of the business is for developing markets.That operation is meant to help people get permanent jobs.A representative is currently building partnerships with universities,and international companies in Central America.

Assured Labor‘s president L David Reich,says the companies now place job advertisements on radio or in

newspapers.Some even drive around in cars with loudspeakers announcing that jobs are available.He says the companies are interested in having more modem hiring practices.

Through Assured Labor companies will list open positions on the Internet.People who think

they could do the job could reply by text messages or on their cell phones.

This is how the system works in Boston.

The jobs available include house cleaning, dog walking and home repair. .People who want their house cleaned,for example,can look online at a list of twenty housekeepers.The list tells what services they offer,and how much they want to be paid.People need two letters praising their work to get on the list of service providers.

The employer chooses workers they would like to hire ,The company then sends the workers a text or e-mail message so they can respond quickly to an offer.

After a job is completed,the employer and employee rate each other, The rating is kept for future use.Assured Labor is not charging anyone,right now, but the plan is to have employers pay for the service.

56.Which of the following is the proper procedure to seek a job through Assured Labor?

a. People can look online at a list of jobs

b.Companies will list open positions on the Intemet.

c.The company sends the workers a text or e-mail message.

57.What can be inferred from the passage?

A.The present hiring practices need to be improved.

B.Employers don‘t need to pay Assured Labour.

C.Universities also join Assured Labor for financial help .

D. Assured Labor only offers household jobs.

58.Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?

The church seems cold this morning,even after a11 the people,friends and family,fill the

benches.I sit here in silence,in shock and denial.This was not supposed to happen.What about

our dreams,or our plans? We were going to raise our children,travel the world,and grow old

together.I‘m only 37,a typical housewife.I don‘t know if I can do all this alone---two children,no father.What do I do or say?

The faces of so many people confuse me as they come to pay their last respects.Some have real sorrow;I can see it in their eyes.The others seem to just say,―I told you so.‖1110se famous last words:I—told—you一so.How I can‘t stand them.And the pointing fingers as so-called family and so-called friends pick me out of the crowd for others to see.1 want to scream and wake up but I can‘t do anything but sit there.How can they be so blind? I fell in love with a man.Love knows no boundaries. He was a good man,hardworking,caring and kind.He was retired form the Navy and a

gentleman.He was sensitive to others‘needs,the kind of man that knew what to do or say,how to humor any situation and calm everyone‘s fears.I remember our first child was a big surprise to both of us.I remember when I told him the news.He fell off his chair,saying over and over in

disbelief.―But I'm almost sixty.‖ After a few months he started planning.whenever he discussed the idea.

A man,thirty years older than I,lies in a coffin.Flowers,the American flag and his VFW

comrades surround him,paying tribute(颂词)to him as the man he really was.And I sit alone

here,with our two children,in silence,praying that this cold morning at church is only a nightmare and 1 will awake to his

loving arms again.

Our son,our first born,his joy and pride,sits to the right of me seeming just as confused as me I look over at him.How he looks like his father--blonde hair,tall and skinny——even his Irish

temperament(气质)and that naughty look in his eyes。He's wearing his father's watch.It's too big

for him but he refused to take it off.I know he‘ll keep it safe.Our second,the little angel and

Daddy's little girl,lays in her stroller(婴儿车)in the aisle,sound asleep.She'll never remember the

man she called―Da‖.

In 1997, a group of twenty British women made history. Working in five teams with four women in each team, they walked to the North Pole. Apart from one experienced female guide, the other women were all ordinary people who had never done anything like this in their lives before. They managed to survive in an environment which had defeated several very experienced men during the same time period.

The women set off as soon as they were ready. Once on the ice, each woman had to ski along while dragging a sledge (雪橇) weighing over 50 kilos. This would not have been too bad on a smooth surface, but for long distances, the Arctic ice is pushed up into huge piles two or three metres high, and the sledges had to be pulled up one side and carefully let down the other so that they didn‘t become damaged. The temperature was always below the freezing point and sometimes strong winds made walking while pulling so much weight almost impossible. It was also very difficult for them to put up their tents when they stopped each night.

In such conditions, the women were making good progress if they covered fourteen or fifteen kilometres a day. But there was another problem. Part of the journey was across a frozen sea with moving water underneath the ice and at some points the team would drift (漂流) back more than five kilometres during the night. That meant that after walking in these very severe conditions for ten hours on one day, they had to spend part of the next day covering the same ground again. Furthermore, each day it took three hours from waking up to setting off and another three hours every evening to set up the camp and prepare the evening meal.

So, how did they manage to succeed? They realized that they were part of a team. If any one of them didn‘t pull her sledge or get her job done, she would endanger the success of the whole expedition (探险). Any form of selfishness could result in the efforts of everyone else being completely wasted, so personal feelings had to be put to one side. At the end of their journey, the women agreed that it was mental effort far more than physical fitness that got them to the North Pole.

63. What was so extraordinary about the expedition?

A. There was no one to lead it.

B. The women did not have any men with them.

C. It was a new experience for most of the women.

D. The women had not met one another before.

64. It was difficult for the women to cover 15 kilometres a day because ________.

A. they got too tired B. the ice was moving

C. they kept getting lostD. the temperatures were too low

65. What is the main message of the text?

A. Motivation and teamwork achieve goals.

B. Women can do anything they want.

C. It is sometimes good to experience difficult conditions.

D. Arctic conditions are very severe.

66. Which of the following items is NOT mentioned in the text?

A. Weather conditions.B. Protective clothing.

C. Preparing food. D. Feelings and relationships.

D

The United States government wants to know what the public thinks about its findings on the safety of cloned animals. The Food and Drug Administration says meat and milk from clones of adult animals

are safe to eat.They called them―as safe to eat as the food we eat every day‖.

And when those clones reproduce sexually(有性繁殖),the agency says,their offspring(后代) are safe to eat as well. The United States this year could become the first country to allow the sale of foods from cloned animals.First,however,the publlc wiIl have ninety days to comment on three proposed

documents.On December 28 th the F.D.A.released a long report,called a draft risk assessment,along with two policy documents.

The agency says it must receive comments by April second.The F.D.A.seemed

ready to act several years ago,but an advisory committee called for more research.

For now,the government will continue to ask producers to honor a request that

they not sell foods from cloned animals.

Clones are still rare.They cost a lot and are difficult to produce. ·

The F.D.A.says most food from cloning is expected to come not from clones themselves,but from their sexually reproduced offspring.It says clones are expected to be used mostly as breeding animals to spread good qualities.

Public opinion studies show most Amerlcans do not 11ke the idea of food from cloned animals.But this research also shows the public knows little about cloning.

Cloning differs from genetic engineering.A cell tak, from a so-called donor animal is grown into an embryo(胚胎)in the laboratory.Next,the embryo is placed into the uterus(子宫)of a female animal.If the process is successful,the pregnancy reaches full term and a genetic copy of the donor animal is born.

67.From the passage,

A.cloned adult animals are sate to eat

B.foods from cloned animals are popular in America

C.cloned animals will be easy to produce

D.most foods from cloning is expected to come from clones themselves

68.

A.tell a storyB.give a report

C.glve advice D.compare oPlnlons

69.Who believe that foods from cloning are safe to eat?

A.Most Americans. B.An advisory committee.

C.Critics.D.The F.D.A.

70.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that

A.cloning has much in common with genetic

B.not every cell taken from a donor animal can grow into a genetic copy

C.the donor animal should be a female one

In a world where comparisons happen non-stop, it is difficult to look outside yourself and to ever be with who you are. There‘s always someone who‘s a bit solution is to reach and measure against what Warren Buffett calls your own inner yardstick. There is no more measure for comparison than who your were yesterday, last week or last decade, when you were at your .

Nothing useful ever comes from comparison to others. Either you see yourself as better than someone and you get , or you see someone else as better than you and you feel like all your hard work is for ‘s game. Not one of us is exactly . The only direct and honest comparison is yourself. Everything else is apples to oranges.

My opinion is that you are only to compare yourself to someone else if their lifeis the same as your own. Good luck finding that matter how hard you work and how dedicated(埋头苦干的)you are, there will always be someone who can run a little faster, jump a little higher, score a little better or look a little nicer in a swimsuit. And if there‘s not, you can someone is coming up fast you. So how can you always win in life? Become your best Having an image of your most recent past limits is the perfect thing to you to the next level. If you ran 7 flights of stairs yesterday, then do 8 today. Who if the guy next to you did 15? It doesn‘t make a bit of person today than you were yesterday. Your own is all you need.

第一节:阅读下列材料,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项, 并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。

A

A new book written by a Chinese American on her super-strict parenting - "Battle Hymn of

the Tiger Mother" has raised fierce debates in the US.

Amy Chua is a Yale Law School professor and the mother of two teenage girls. She is the daughter of Chinese immigrants. In the Chinese culture, the tighter represents strength and power. In her book, Ms. Chua writes about how she demanded excellence from her daughters. Chua writes that her daughters, Sophia and Louisa, were never allowed to go on a date, be in a school play, watch TV or play computer games. They couldn't choose their own after-class activities or get any grade less than an A. They had to play piano or violin - and no other musical instruments.

She writes that if a Chinese child gets a B - which she says "would never happen" - there would be "a screaming, hair-tearing explosion." She describes making her 7-year-old daughter play a piano piece perfectly - yelling and not letting her leave the bench even to use the bathroom - until it was.

Many people have criticized Amy Chua. Some say her parenting methods were abusive. She even admits that her husband, who is not Chinese, objected to her parenting style. But she says that was the way her parents raised her and her three sisters.

Stacy Debroff, who has written four books on parenting, says Amy Chua‘s parenting style is not limited to Chinese families. She says it represents a traditional way of parenting among immigrants seeking a better future for their children. But she also sees a risk. When children have no time to be social or to follow their own interests, they might not develop other skills that they need to succeed in life. Stacy Debroff advises parents not to just repeat the way they were raised.

Alison Lo, an assistant professor of marketing at the University of Washington's Bothell campus, said. "I don't think Amy is advocating a best practice of parenting style, or that success and achievements are critical yardsticks of a good life. But I can imagine how strong her daughters' college applications are going to be. For many parents whose dreams are seeing their kids graduating from a competitive university, Amy is sharing with the readers that it is achievable by persistent, dedicated parental guidance," Lo said. "In that sense, a young adult's giftedness can be born, or made."

41. We can learn that Amy Chua is _________.

A. an assistant professor B. an easy-going woman

C. A cruel teacherD. A demanding mother

42. What are Sophia and Louisa allowed to do?

A. Getting an A minus B. Playing the guitar

C. Dating with boysD. Playing the piano

43. What do you know about Amy Chua‘s husband?

A. He came from China B. He is against her parenting style

C. He approved of her parenting styleD. He thinks her parenting methods are abusive

44. Stacy Debroff advises parents to ________.

A. follow Amy Chua‘s parenting style

B. develop their own style of parenting

C. be strict with children

D. seek a better future for their children

45. Alison Lo concludes that ___________.

A. a teenager can be raised to be a talent

B. a gifted child was born with talent

C. persistent, dedicated parental guidance is the best parenting style

D. parents should respect children‘s personalities

B

Retracing one of the most important trading routes of ancient civilization, this remarkable tour aboard the luxury Golden Eagle and Shangri-La trains follows in the footsteps of such legendary figures as Alexander the Great and Marco Polo.

Crossing both Russia and China as well as some of the remotest former Soviet republics---Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan--- our journey will take in some of the most magnificent yet little-visited sights from the ancient world. Eastbound trips start in Russia‘s capital Moscow, where we have plenty of time to explore. We travel on to Volgograd---better known as Stalingrad---where the Soviets turned the course of the Second World War, before heading for far remoter places that own their importance to a time much further back in history.

The Kara Kum desert is followed by the amazing 2,500 –year-old cities of Khiva and Bukhara---considered so important by UNESCO that it supported their restoration---and then Samarkand, ―the Rome of the East‖. Much admired by Alexander the Great, Samarkand is home to Registan Square, a spectacular open space surrounded by beautiful Islamic buildings and considered one of the most inspirational sights in central Asia. In between Khiva and Bukhara we take a two-day into Turkmenistan and visit the capital city of Ashgabat, a huge modern folly(装饰性建筑) in the desert and a monument to the recently deceased President Sapamurat Turkmenbashi. We also visit the ancient city of Merv before returning to Uzbekistan.

After crossing the border into China, our tour takes in the fascinating Mogao Grottoes, the Jiayuguan fortress at the end of the Great Wall and the world-famous Terracotta Warriors, an army of almost 6,000 statues recognized as one of the greatest archaeological finds of the 20th Century. We end our journey in Beijing, the capital of modern, confident China…where the latest architecture rubs shoulders with Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City.
