The couple, visiting from Texas, had booked a room for eight nights.“They wanted a sterile(消过毒的) environment,”Theodore said. “They should have rented a room in a hospital, maybe an operating room. This hotel is clean, but it isn’t that clean.”Theodore said that, on the very first day, the couple brought all the sheets and pillowcases(枕套) down to the lobby and just dropped them next to the front desk. They stood there next to this pile of bedding while other guests looked, pointed, and murmured. The hotel got three cancellations within the hour from the people who witnessed this strange event.When Theodore asked the couple what the problem was, they saidthat their bedding was filthy and they wanted it changed. The couple could not identify any specific “filth”on the bedding. The wife just said, “We’re paying good money to stay here. How dare you doubt us? We know the filth is there. That’s all the proof you need.” Theodore called room service, and the bedding was replaced immediately.Early the next evening, however, the couple marched to the front desk again and demanded seven cans of spray disinfectant(喷雾消毒剂). “We need a can for each night. We have to spray the phone, the TV, all the door handles, the toilet handle, the shower stall, the faucet, the sink, and any hotel staff entering our room.”Worried about what their demands might be in the following days, Theodore politely suggested that a hotel more suitable for them was just around the corner. He then called ahead to reserve a “very clean” room, and gave them free transportation in the hotel car.“They seemed surprised that I suggested a different hotel, but they were glad that I didn’t charge them for the second day, and they really liked the car service,” said Theodore.1. Why did Theodore say the couple should have stayed in a hospital?A. Because they were seriously ill.B. Because the hotel was not as clean as a hospital.C. Because a hospital had a sterile environment.D. Because the hotel was too crowded for them.2. What happened after the couple dropped the bedding in the lobby?A. some guests cancelled their reservations.B. Some guests criticized the hotel for its bad service.C. Some guests demanded more cans of spray disinfectant.D. Some guests asked to be moved to another hotel.3. The underlined word “filthy” in the fourth paragraph probably means “__________”.A. oldB. dirtyC. uglyD. broken4. Theodore advised the couple to move to another hotel mainly because _____________.A. he couldn’t meet their demandsB. he couldn’t give them good serviceC. he was afraid that they would demand moreD. he was afraid that other guests would cancel the reservation5. It can be inferred from the text that ________________.A. the couple was hard to deal withB. the hotel was badly managedC.

Incredibly4,In 1974 Robledo landed the position of vineyard manager for Sonoma-Cutrer, running the company's properties in the Sonoma, Napa and Russian River valleys. His salary of $60,000, worth more than four times that much today, reflected his unusual talent. "He was active, ambitious and smarter than a whip," says former owner Bryce Jones, who helped Robledo learn to run a business and remains an advisor.Robledo moved on to Curtis Ranches in 1981; the owner was so impressed with his abilities, he sent him to France to teach grafting at an affiliated(隶属的) winery. Robledo's English was still spotty, and on the layover at JFK, he got so lost that he almost missed his flight to Paris. He tried improving his fluency using his children's textbooks, to little avail. (In fact, his linguistic insecurity led him to put off seeking U.S. citizenship until 1990, when he finally took, and passed, the rigorous exam.) "The language barrier was the most difficult thing for my father," says daughter Vanessa, 29. But it didn't prevent him from expressing a concern for others as intense as his drive to succeed. Over time, Robledo helped all his brothers and sisters come north and found them good jobs in the vineyards. In Sonoma he routinely brought workers home for his wife's tasty meals. "He'd make sure they had a place to stay," says Vanessa.In 1984 Robledo purchased a house on a 13-acre plot in Napa. He moved his family into the house and spent his evenings plantingvines. He set up experimental plots in the backyard, using different soils and rootstocks.Despite killing frosts, ill-timed rains and colleagues' warnings that some of his experiences were hopeless, his fields all bore extraordinary fruit. He began selling grapes to wineries, and by the mid 1990s he'd gone into business for himself.The kids pitched in from the beginning. "I remember working on my birthday and on Christmas," says Robledo’s son. "Instead of a baseball bat, I got a shovel as a present from my father. But I appreciate it now. My father instilled the belief that if you work for it, you can have pretty much of what you want in this beautiful country."1. What did Bryce thinks of Robledo?A. He was more horrible than a whipB. He had great talent and ambitionC. His behaviors made Jones unhappyD. His talent was different from a whip’s2. Robledo’s experience during his journey to Paris reflected the fact that______A. he usually came lateB. he easily got lostC. he wasn’t good at EnglishD. he was afraid of flying3. As manger of Sonoma-Cutrer, how did Robledo treat his workers?A. He would invite them to live in his home.B. He often showed off his wife’s cookingC. He was very hard on themD.

The author’s purpose of writing the passage was to introduce______.A. a great vineyardB. a hard working fatherC. a man named RobledoD. a kind-hearted person5,People realize that, 1 animals may not have the same intelligence(智力) as human beings, they are smart enough to learn certain things.Dogs are 2 (extreme) useful as companions for blind people.

When he realized that, he decided to make the best of it. In the store, of course , there was plenty of food ,drink, and bedding. There were radios and telvision sets, which no one could tell whether the man had ever used. When the store reopened the man was discovered in bed with a large number of empty bottles beside him.

The shops are fascinating(吸引人的), especially department stores. Many of them are more than just shops--they haverestaurants and arts exhibitions as well. People visit them at the weekend as a leisure(闲暇的) activity. The language is very difficult for westerners to learn. That's because it's totally different from any of the European languages. It has a huge vocabulary, so you really need a good memory. The clothes come in two styles---business and leisure.

Now researchers at the University of St. Andrew's in Scotland say they may have the answer. They believe politicians could learn a lot from recent advances in science. A growing number of studies have shown that people do judge a book by its cover. Researchers say most of us make quick judgments about a person on the basis of how he looks.Studies suggest that people are less likely to trust those with Particularly masculine(男性的) Features, such as a square jaw, Small eyes and a big nose. "They are considered dominant(支配的) and less trustworthy. "says Mr. Corm--well. "It doesn't mean that men who look more masculine are less trustworthy --it’s just our first impression "Those with less masculine features—larger eyes, a smaller nose and thinner lips--are thought to be more trustworthy.The researchers are putting their science to the test at the Royal Societ y’s annual summer exhibition in London. They have manipulated (操作处理) the faces of Prime Minister Tony Blair, Conservative leader Michael Howard and Liberal Democrat leader Charles Kennedy accentuating(强调) their dominant trustworthy Features. "We have used a computer program to change the shape of their faces and features. We hope it will help people to understand our work. "So should we expect to see them at the exhibition gettingtips7"I don’ t think it' something they will want to try", says Mr. Cornwell. "It's not really possible with television. We all know what they look like. "47. According to the passage, which of the following descriptions will give people good impression?A. A square jaw, small eyes and a small nose.B. Large eyes, a small nose and a big face.C. Larger eyes , a smaller nose and thinner lips.D. A small nose, small eyes and thick lips.48. The underlined word "them” in Paragraph 5 refers toA. the researchersB. Tony Blair, Michael Howard and Charles KennedyC. their featuresD. computer programs49. According to the passage, we know thatA. people with good facial features must be trustworthyB. people with bad facial features could not be trustworthyC. we should judge people by their facial featuresD. facial features might give people some wrong impressions50. According to Mr. Cornwell, we can infer thatA. the science will give politicians great helpB. politicians could be successful with the help of the scienceC. the science will not be helpful to politiciansD. politicians will be satisfied with the science51. What's the best title for the passage?A. How Science Could Help PoliticiansB. How to Win the Trust of VotersC. The Other Sides of PoliticiansD. An Important Discovery for PoliticiansEAwareness Weeks (认知宣传周)have become a regular part of Britain's cultural landscape over the past few years. They started back in 1957, When one charity(慈善机构), Christian Aid, decided to make all its money--raising efforts on one time of year. It was thought that by doing this they would get more publicity for their cause.They were right, and soon other charities and campaign(活动)groups followed them. These days, most donations(捐款)to charity are not collected on the streets. So instead of just asking for money, charities prefer to spend their time "raising aware-ness'--spreading knowledge of the work they do or the cause they support. They also compete with businesses and trade groups who use Awareness Weeks as marketing campaigns for their products.There are now 500 Awareness Weeks held every year in the UK. No week goes by without one group or another trying to make the British public aware of something, with most held in May or October.The danger with all these Awareness Weeks is that people start to become eynical(不信任). Take National Smile Week, it seems like a great idea. Let's all make each other's life a little bit happier with a friendly smile, But really it's just a group of dentists and cosmeticscompanies trying to sell us toothpast e. It’s enough to make you want to start National Forget About It Week. "People feel that many awareness campaigns are just marketing exercises," says Ms Ormiston, who edits the Awareness Campaign Register, a newsletter which encourages people who run Awareness Weeks to become more aware of each other. "But 90 per cent of campaigns are run by traditional charities or not for groups to make money. ""There’ s still no official group for awareness campaigns," says Ms Ormiston , "People can do what they like, whatever the size of their budgets(经费)or their public relations machines allows. "This situation has led to calls for laws to stop real charities having their efforts overshadowed by marketing campaigns. This could be done by making the two groups hold their weeks at different times or stopping businesses running imitation(模仿)charity campaigns. But there is another way. Maybe it's time for National Weak Awareness Week, especially for people whose awareness of Awareness Weeks in weak. 52. What's the main purpose of Awareness Weeks run by charities in Britain?A. To raise money for charities.B. To spread knowledge of charities.C. To take up marketing campaigns.D. To advertise their goods for sale.53. Why do people start to become cynical about Awareness Weeks?A. Too many Awareness Weeks make" people feel bored.B. People feel many Awareness Weeks are just for marketingexercises.C. People have a weak awareness of Awareness Weeks.D. Awareness Weeks are held too often and too much money is raised.54. What does Ms Ormiston think about Awareness Weeks?A. Most of the Awareness Weeks should not be for making money.B. Official groups should take the place of charities in awareness campaigns.C. People can do what they like in Awareness Weeks.D. People can get larger budgets through awareness campaigns.55. What's the writer's view on Awareness Weeks?A. National Forget About It Week should be held awareness weeks,B. National Smile Week is a great idea to improve people’s life.C. National Weak Awareness Week can help people better understandAwareness Weeks.D. Awareness Weeks should be stopped because of marketing campaigns.Ⅳ短文改错﹙10分﹚Mathematics was given Galileo new ideas, and he was happy1._________to study it at home.

fails entirely once heor she starts to push a shopping cart (购物手推车)．One of the first things customers forget is how to count.There is no other way to explain how so many people get in their express line, which is clearly marked 15 items or less, with 20, 25 or even a cart load of items.Customers also forget why they came to the store in the first place.Just as I finish ringing up an order, a customer will say，“ Oops, I forgot to pick up a fresh loaf of bread.I hope you don't mind waiting while I go to get it.”Five minutes later，he's back with the bread, a bottle of milk, and three rolls of paper towels.What is stranger is that customers also seem to forget that they have to pay for their groceries.Instead of writing a check or looking for a credit card while I am ringing up the groceries, a customer will wait until I announce the total.Then, in surprise, she says，“ Oh no, what did I do with my check book？” After 5 minutes of digging through her purse, she borrows my pen because she's forgotten hers.But I have to tolerate customers because they pay my salary, and that's something I can't afford to forget.46．What does the author say about his customers?A．They can not count numbers.B．They sometimes jump the queue.C．They don't know how to express themselves.D．They behave as if their memories have totally failed.47．According to the text, who are supposed to be in the express line?A．Customers with nothing purchased.B．Customers with no more than 15 items.C．Customers with items between 15 and 25.D．Customers with 25 or even a cart load of items.48．When customers arrive at the checkout counter, they________.A．find their pens lostB．go back and get more itemsC．can not wait to pay for their groceriesD．prefer paying by check to paying with a credit card49．We can infer from the text that________.A．business in the grocery store runs wellB．the author finds his present job full of funC．the author's parttime job calls for patienceD．customers go to grocery stores without planningBFlappy Bird is flapping (拍打) its wings no more.The popular game for mobile equipment was removed from online stores on Sunday by its Vietnamese creator, who said its fame “destroys my simple life”．Dong Nguyen, who created the game in just two to three days, was making as much as DS| 50,000 a day from the game's advertising income.In several Twitter posts, he said the game's removal was not due to legal issues (问题) and that he may make a followup.Mr Nguyen, who describes himself as an “enthusiastic independent game maker”，also said on the microblogging site that he would not sell Flappy Bird but he would still make games.Flappy Bird has been downloaded more than 50 million times，making it this year's most popular mobile game so far . Coming out in May 2013, the game was free to download and required players to tap the screen to keep the bird in flight.In spite of its simple graphs, Flappy Bird was an extremely difficult game since many users could only keep the bird in the air for a few seconds before it hits an obstacle (障碍物) and falls.After Mr Nguyen took the game down, many fans turned to social media to ask for its return.The game is no longer available through online stores, but it still works on phones that had previously downloaded it.However, some fans expressed their relief that the game was gone.One user described Flappy Bird as “an addictive game that everyone hate s to love”， while another said，“ I think it's for the best, and for the best of all the brokendown phones out there.”50．Dong Nguyen took Flappy Bird down because________.A．it was against the lawB．it was easily destroyedC．it disturbed his normal lifeD．it could break down phones51．What can we learn about Dong Nguyen from the text?A．He is addicted to playing games.B．He likes to make games by himself.C．He earned a lot by selling Flappy Bird.D．He rose to fame after removing his game.52．What were the users' reactions to Dong Nguyen's removing the game?A．Some felt happy and relaxed.B．Some got so angry that they accused him.C．Some regretted they couldn't keep the bird in flight.D．Some asked social media to help develop another game.53．What would be the best title for this text?A．Flappy Bird — A Mobile GameB．Flappy Bird — A Computer GameC．Dong Nguyen — A Game CreatorD．Dong Nguyen — A Talented PersonC(安徽高考)Personal Robot Make your parents and teachers happy!Are you having problems finishing your homework on time?

Because of this, developing more positive selftalk is an important way to reduce stress in your life. You can help yourself maintain a positive flame of mind, which will help with positive selftalk by surrounding yourself with positive energy in your life. You can getthat by adding some elements to your life.Listening to music that not only has a pleasant melody, but an uplifting message, can be great for developing positive selftalk. Have you ever had a song “stuck in your head” for a few hours or days, the lyrics repeating themselves in your mind? If those lyrics were positive and inspirational, that would be a good thing. It's a much better mental soundtrack to have than a running stream of complaints, criticisms of selflimiting thoughts, or even songs that had more depressing or sad lyrics.Bo oks on strength, personal power, enlightenment, or selfhelp can be good resources to help you change your outlook and the things you say to yourself. Rather than bringing habitual selfdefeating thoughts, you can find yourself thinking of new cando co ncepts when times get tough.One of the most important ways you can get and keep positive energy in your life is with the company you keep. Do your friends uplift you, or bring you down? Are they critical, or approving? Ideal friendships provide support when you're down, fun when you're up, wisdom when you're lost. Good friends can inspire you to reach greater heights, and see your strengths even when you don't always. Pay attention to how your friends make you feel, and if they're less than supportive, start putting your energy and time toward people who are better suited to be your friends.In addition, positive affirmations (肯定) can certainly change your selftalk from negative to positive. Now, why not begin working positive affirmations into your life in some creative ways?58．What does the passage mainly talk about?A．Adding some colorful elements to your life.B．Changing your selftalk with positive affirmations.C．Getting positive energy from the company you keep.D．Reducing stress by surrounding yourself with positive energy.59．How many ways does the author suggest to maintain a positive frame of mind?A．Three. B．Four.C．Five. D．Six.60．What will probably be talked about in the following paragraph?A．Some great ways of making great friends.B．How negative selftalk influences a person.C．Some creative ways of practicing affirmation.D．How positive selftalk reduces stress in one's life.答案Ⅰ.1.recipe 2.manual 3.centigrade 4.bent 5.breweryⅡ.6.glanced at7.achieve your purpose 8.an appropriate amount of 9.in other words 10.you should apologize to himⅢ.11.选D 根据前句：你真粗心，不关煤气就离开家，可知下句应是：我(这样做)的确粗心。
