He has good heart, but always feared applying for a new job.One day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview. His appointment was at 10 am and it was already 8:30. While waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed ot be interviewed, he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre of his car. Obviously there was something wrong with the car. Jimmy immediately went up to lend him a hand. When Jimmy finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. Jimmy said there was no need to pay him; he just helped someone in need, and he had to rush for an interview. Then the old man said, “Well, I could take you to the office for your interview. It’s the least I could do. Please. I insist.” Jimmy agreed.Upon arrival, Jimmy found a long line of applications waiting to be interviewed. Jimmy still had some grease on him after the car repair, but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. One by one, the applicants left the interviewer’s office with disappointed look on their faces. Finally his name was called. The interviewer was sitting on a large chair facing the office window. Rocking the chair back and forth, he asked, “Do you really need to be interviewed?” Jimmy’s heart sank. “With the way I look now, how could I possibly pass this interview?” he thought to himself.Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Jimmy’s surprise, it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning. It turned out he was the General Manager of the company.“Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I made the right decision to have you as part of our workforce before you even stepped into the office. I just know you’d be a trustworthy worker. Congratulations!”Jimmy sat down and they shared a cup of well-deserved coffee as he landed himself a new job.1 Why did Jimmy apply for a new job?A.

Some years ago, the group to which Sparrow belonged was taken over by another company. Although Sparrow showed no sign of declining, the chain was generally in an unhealthy state. With more and more fast-food concepts reaching the market, the Sparrow menu had to struggle for attention. And to make matters worse, its new owner had no plans to give it the funds it required.Sparrow failed to grow for another two years. Until a new CEO, Carl Pearson, decided to build up its market share. He did a survey, which showed that consumers who already used Sparrow restaurants were extremely positive about the chain, while customers of other fast-food chains were unwilling to turn away from them. Sparrow had to develop a new promotional campaign.Pearson faced a battle over the future of the Sparrow brand. The chain’s owner now favored rebranding Sparrow as Marcy’s restaurants. Pearson resisted, arguing for an advertising campaign designed to convince customers that visits to Sparrow restaurants were fun. Such an attempt to establish a positive relationship between a company and the general public was unusual for that time. Pearson strongly believed that numbers were the key to success, rather than customers’ speeding power. Finally, the owner accepted his idea.The campaign itself changed the traditional advertising style of the fast-food industry. The TV ads of Sparrow focused on entertainment and featured original sons performed by a variety of stars. Instead of showing the superiority of a specific product, the intension was to put Sparrow in the hearts of potential customers.Pearson also made other decisions which he believed would contribute to the new Sparrow image. For example, he offered to lower the rent of any restaurants which achieved a certain increase in their turnover. (营业额)These efforts paid off, and Sparrow soon became one of the most successful fast-food chains in the regions where it operated.6Which was one of the problems Sparrow faced before Pearson became CEO?A. The number of its customers was decliningB. Its customers found the food unhealthyC. It was in need of financial supportD. Most of its restaurants were closed7 What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. Customers of Sparrow restaurantsB. Sparrow restaurantsC. Customers of other fast-food chainsD. other fast-food chains8 For what purpose did Pearson start the advertising campaign?A. To build a good relationship with the publicB. To stress the unusual tradition of SparrowC. To lean about customers; spending power.D. To meet the challenge from Marcy’s restaurants.9. The TV ads of Sparrow ________ .A. changed people’s views on pop starsB. amused the public with original songsC. focused on the superiority of its productsD. influenced the eating habits of the audience10. What was Pearson’s achievement as a CEO?A. He managed to pay off Sparrow’s debts.B. He made Sparrow much more competitiveC. He helped Sparrow take over a companyD. He improved the welfare of Sparrow employeesCIn Mexico, girls mark their fifteenth birthday with a celebration called Quinceanera. In the morning, the birthday girl goes to the church with her family and her best friends. She wears a beautiful dress.

He doesn't accept ideas which are not 2 on obvious facts,and therefore refuses to acceptauthority(权威)as the only 3 for truth. Healways 4 ideas carefully and makes experiments to prove them.The rise of 5 science may perhaps be consideredto 6 as far back as the 7 of Roger Bacon,the wonderful philosopher (哲学家)of Oxford, who lived 8 the years 1214 and 1292. He was probably the first in the Middle 9 to suggest that we must learn science 10 observing and experimenting on the things around us, and he himself 11 many important discoveries.Galileo, however, who lived more than 300 years later ( 1564 〜1642), was the greatest of several great men, 12 in Italy, France, Germany, or England, began by 13 to show how manyimportant 14 could be discovered by observation. Before Galileo, learned men believed that large bodies fell more 15 towards the earth than small ones, 16 Aristotle said so. But Galileo, going to the 17 of the leaning Tower of Pisa, let falltwo 18 stones and proved Aristotle was wrong. It was Galileo's science 19 of going direct to Nature, and proving our20 and theories by experiment, that has led to all the discoveries of modern science.1. A. use B. time C. speed D. trust2.

He had been working all night onthe 1 of a sewing machine but he had 2 a very difficult problem:it seemed impossible to get the thread to runsmoothly 3 the needle.4 he was tired, Howe slept badly. He turned and turned. Then he had a dream. He dreamt that he was caught by terrible savages(野蛮人)whose 5 wanted to kill him and eat him unless he could build a 6 sewing machine. When he tried to do so, Howe met withthe 7 problem as before. The thread kept getting caught around the needle.The king flew into the rage(大怒)and ordered his soldiers to kill Howe. They came up towards him with their spears(矛) 8 . Suddenly the inventor noticed something. There was a 9 in the tip of each spear.The inventor awoke from the dream, 10 that he had just found the answer to the problem. Instead of trying to get the thread to run around the needle, he should make it run through a small hole in the 11 of the needle. This was the simple idea that finally made Howe design and make the firstreally 12 sewing machine.To know the 13 of dreams, you haveto 14 what happens when you are asleep. Even then, a part of your mind is still working. This unconscious(无意识的)butstill 15 part understands your experiences and goes to work on the problems you have had during the 16 . It stores all sorts of information that you may have 17 or never havereally 18 .It is only when you fall asleep that this part of the brain can send messages to the part you use when you are 19 . However, the unconscious part acts in a special way. It uses strange 20 which the conscious part may not understand at first. This is why dreams are sometimes called “secret messages to ourselves”.1.

The exchange coordinator told me I'd have a 9 this time and asked whether I could share a bedroom with an English speaker.

But the 1 would no doubt be greater if you were living on the streets with little food and money. All of this makes the actions of the homeless Tom Smith 2 more remarkable.After spotting a 3 on the front seat inside a parked car with its window down, he stood guard in the rain for about two hours waiting forthe 4 to return.After hours in the cold and wet, he 5 inside and pulled the wallet out hoping to find some ID so he could contact(联系)the driver, onlyto 6 it contained £400 in notes, with another £50 in spare change beside it.He then took the wallet to a nearby police station after 7 a note behind to let the owner know it was safe. When the car’s owner John Anderson and his colleague Carol Lawrence returned to the car—which was itself worth £35, 000—in Glasgow city centre, they were 8 to find two policemen standing next to it. The policemen told them what Mr. Smith did and that the walletwas 9 .The pair were later able to thank Mr. Smith for his 10 .Mr. Anderson said:"I couldn’t believe that the guy never took a penny. To think he is sleeping on the streets tonight 11 he could have stolen the money and paid for a place to stay in. This guy has nothing and12 he didn’t take t he wallet for himself;he thought about others 13 . It’s unbelievable. It just proves thereare 14 guys out there."Mr. Smith’s act 15 much of the public’s attention. He also won praise from social media users after Mr. Anderson 16 about the act of kindness on Facebook.Now Mr. Anderson has set up an online campaign to 17 money for Mr. Smith and other homeless people in the area, which by yesterday had received ￡8,000. "I think the faith that everyone has shown 18 him has touched him. People have been approaching him in the street; he’s hadjob 19 and all sorts," Mr. Anderson commented.For Mr. Smith, this is a possible life-changing 20 .

Jr., flew over Australia. The man in the Mercury(水星) capsule（宇宙飞行容器）was alone, but friendly voices reached him by radio. On the dark land 100 miles below, he saw a sprinkling of light. They marked the city of Perth, where people had turned on their lights as a greeting to him.In Friendship7, Glenn radioed, " The lights show up very well. Thank for everybody for turning them on." His capsule raced on to the east.During his three orbits of the earth, Glenn could always reach one of eighteen tracking stations. Some of them were on ship at sea. Others were in the United States.Many of the stations had been built with the help of other countries.These countries allowed Americans to bring in radio equipment and set it up. Without the help of such lands as Nigeria（尼日利亚）, Zanzibar（尚巴西，坦桑尼亚领土的一部分）, and Mexico, there would have been breaks in the worldwide radio network.John H. Glenn. Jr., was the first America to orbit the earth. Forhis flight, the tracking network（跟踪网络） covered 60,000 route miles. Five hundred men worked in the stations along the route. Since his flight, the network has grown. T oday, it covers more than 100,000 route miles and has about one hundred stations. One-third of these stations are outside of the United States.11.This passage is mainly about .A. talking to ships at sea around the worldB. breaks in the worldwide networkC. the first American to orbit the earthD. a satellite which fell into the ocean12.

Countries must work together to track satellites.B. There are now about 70 tracking stations in the United States.C. The tracking network covers many more route miles now than before.D. Nobody has orbited the earth besides Glenn.BThomas Edison was one of ten said to be the greatest genius of his age. There are only a few men in all of the history, who have changed the lives of other men as much as the inventor of the first useful electric light. But Edison could never be happy only because someone said he was a genius." There is no such thing as genius," Edison said. He said that what people called genius was mostly hard work.But Edison was a dreamer as well as a worker. From his earliest days as a child he wondered about the secrets of nature. Nature, he often said, is full of secrets. He tried to understand them; then, he tried to learn what could usefully be done with them.Edison enjoyed thinking. He knew that most people will do almost anything instead of the difficult work of thinking, especially if they do not think very often. But he knew, too, that thinking can give men enjoyment and pleasure.Edison could not understand how anyone could be uninterested in life. As he loved to think, he also loved to work. On the day he became 75 years old, someone asked him what ideas he had about life. " Work," he answered. "Discovering the secrets of nature and using them to make men happier." He said he had enough inventions in his mind to give him another 100 years of work.16.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Edison invented the electric light.B. Many other people have changed Edison's life.C. Edison has changed the life of many other people.D.

Without him, the world might still be a dark place.However, the electric light was not his only invention. He also invented the phonograph, the motion picture camera, and over 1,200 other things. About every two weeks he created something new.Thomas A． Edison was born in Milan, Ohio, on February 11, 1847. His family moved to Port Huron, Michigan, when he was seven years old． Surprisingly, he attended school for only two months. His mother, a former teacher, taught him a few things, but Thomas was mostly self-educated． His natural curiosity led him to start experimenting at a young age with electrical and mechanical things at home.When he was 12 years old, he got his first joB． He became a newsboy on a train that ran between Port Huron and Detroit. He set up a laboratory in a baggage car of the train so that he could continue his experiments in his spare time. Unfortunately, his first work experience did not end well. Thomas was fired when he accidentally set fire to the floor of the baggage car. Thomas then worked for five years as a telegraph operator, but he continued to spend much of his time on the job conducting experiments. He got his first patent in 1868 for a vote recorder run by electricity. However, the vote recorder was not a success. In 1870, he sold another invention, a stock-ticker, for $40,000. A stock-ticker is a machine that automatically prints stock prices on a tape. He was then able to build his first shop inNewark, New Jersey.Thomas Edison was totally deaf in one ear and hard of hearing in the other, but thought of his deafness as a blessing in many ways. It kept conversations short, so that he could have more time for work. He called himself a "two-shift man" because he worked 16 out of every 24 hours. Sometimes he worked sointensely that his wife had to remind him to sleep and eat.Thomas Edison died at the age of 84 on October 18, 1931, at his estate in West Orange, New Jersey. He left numerous inventions that improved the quality of life all over the world．21．Thomas Edison did things in this order:A．he became a telegraph operator, a newsboy, and then got his first patentB．he became a newsboy, got his first patent, and then became a telegraph operatorC．he got a patent, became a telegraph operator, and then became a newsboyD．he became a newsboy, a telegraph operator, and then got a patent22．Of all the inventions, __________ was probably the most important for civilization.A．the vote recorder B．the stock tickerC．the light bulb D．the motion picture camera23．The main idea of this passage is __________ .A．Thomas Edison was always interested in science and inventions, and he invented manyimportant things.B．Thomas Edison could not keep a joB．C．Thomas Edison worked day and night on his experiments.本文档是个人收集整理的，仅供交流学习，如有错误，欢迎指正！D．Deaf people make good inventors because they can focus without the distraction of spoken conversation.CLight for the CityEdison and his assistants came to New York to set up anelectric power system. They hoped it would provide enough electricity to light up a part of the great city.They bought several machines with them. These were called generators, which produced electricity power for lamps in Edison's building.Soon there were lights for the building. Edison lived in a room facing the street and he often worked over night. The light burned brightly and steadily and he often worked over night. People often came and stopped their horse-drawn carriage to look. Everyone knew that Thomas Edison was in town.First, the inventor and his assistants produced several large generators. A great deal of power would be needed to light up even a small part of the city.Then the workers were busy digging deep trenches in the hard earth below the city streets, and Edison had fourteen miles of wire laid into the trenches. The wire connected each building to a generator.Setting up an electric power system was not an easy job. It took a year and a half. In September, 1882, the job was finished.A small group of men stood around Edison inside the power house. The big moment came at last. The inventor, taking a deep breath, pulled a switch. The electric lights flashed up."Very good! Very good!" a man nearby shouted to praise Edison for what he had done."Sir," said Edison, "this is only the beginning!" And Edison was right. Soon Edison's lamp were lighting up cities all over the world.24 he generators they brought with them could produce as much as electricity as ______ needed.A. Edison's buildingB. a small part of the cityC. the whole cityD. the world25 At that time carriages ______ by horse could be seen in the street.A. drawB. drewC. drawnD. drawing26 Trenches were dug to ______.A. set up generatorsB. lay wiresC. built city streetsD. build a power house27 It took a year and a half to ______.A. set up the electric systemB. produce several large generatorsC. dig the deep trenchesD. lay fourteen miles of wire into the trench28 Edison took a deep breath before pulling a switch, which showed that he was ______.A. excitedB. frightenedC. uneasyD. light-heartedDOne night in February 1962, John H.

families for China’s most important holiday，Chinese New Year.More than one billion people around the world are celebrating the New Year.History Behind the HolidayThe Chinese New Year is celebrated at the second new moon after the winter solstice (冬至)(The winter solstice is one of the two times of the year when the sun is at its greatest distance from the equator.It is also the shortest day of the year)．According to an ancient legend，Buddha asked all the animals to meet him on Chinese New Year.12 animals came，and Buddha named a year after each animal.The animals were：the mouse，ox，tiger，rabbit，dragon，snake，horse，goat，monkey，rooster，dog and pig.A Good Y ear to Be a PigBuddha announced that people born in each animal’s year would have some of that animal’s personality.If you were born in 1959,1971,1983 or 1995，you were born in the year of the Pig.People who were born in these years are believed to be polite，honest，hardworking and loyal.They are also supposed to be lucky，which is why many Chinese like to have babies in a Pig year.They are said to get along best with people born under the year of the Rabbit，Goat，Tiger，Dragon，Horse and Dog.Festivals，Lions and FeastsOn Chinese New Year’s Eve，the Chinese celebrate with fireworks，family gatherings，and feasts.One of the most popular ways to celebrate the holiday is the lion dance.The lion is considered a holy (神圣的) animal.During celebrations，dancers dressed as lions (or holding up elaborate paper lions in the air) perform to bring good luck to the people they visit at their homes or businesses.People often wear in red，which symbolizes fire.Legend has it that fire can drive away bad luck.The 15-day New Year season is celebrated with firecrackers，dragon dances and visits to friends and relatives.The celebrations end with the Lantern Festival，when brightly colored lanterns are hung in parks around China.1．The topic of the passage is about ________.A．a festival B．a tripC．a get-together D．a dragon

removing moisture from food helps to store it，and that the easiest way to do this is to expose the food to sun and wind.All foods，including water-cabbage and other leaf vegetables，contain as much as 93% water，potatoes and other root vegetables 80%，lean(瘦的)meat 75% and fish，anything from 80% to 60%，depending on how fatty it is.If this water is removed，the activity of the bacteria which causes food to go bad is controlled.Nowadays most foods are dried mechanically.The conventional method of such dehydration (脱水) is to put food in chambers (室) through which hot air is blown at temperature of about 110℃ at entry to about 43℃ at exit.This is the usual method for drying such things as vegetables，minced meat and fish.Liquids such as milk，coffee，tea，soups and eggs may be dried by pouring them over a heated steel cylinder(圆筒)，then put into a chamber through which a current of hot air passes.In the first process，the dried material comes off the roller as a thin film which is then broken up into small flakes.In the second process it falls to the bottom of the chamber as small powder.Where recognizable pieces of meat and vegetables are required，as in soup，the ingredients are dried separately and then mixed.Dried foods take up less room and weigh less than the same food packed in cans or frozen，and they do not need to be stored in special conditions.For these reasons they are invaluable to the climbers，explorers and soldiers in battle，who have little storage space.They are also popular with housewives because it takes so little time to cook them.1．It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A．a fat fish contains as much water as a lean oneB．the fattier a fish is，the more water it may containC．a fatty fish holds less water than a lean oneD．the water content of fish has nothing to do with the content of their fat2．The underlined word “conventional”in Paragraph 3 can most probably be replaced by ________.A．particular B．scientificC．usual D．special3．Which of the following statements is NOT true about drying food?A．The removal of water in food helps prevent it from going rotten.B．The open-air method of drying food has been known for hundreds of years.C．In the course of dehydration，the temperature of hot current coming from entry to exit is gradually going up.D．The process of drying liquids is much more complex than that of drying solid food.4．The last paragraph mainly talks about ________.A．the reason why housewives like dried foodB．the general convenience of dried foodC．the methods of storing foodD．the advantages of dried，canned and frozen food1．Finally，the doctor in charge told us our daughter was brain dead.(完形填空第一段) 最后，主治医生告诉我们女儿已是脑死亡。

driving subway trains.And some do one simple job.But in all，they bring great convenience to all of us.When an automatic washing machine is switched on，water pours in.The machine waits until the water is hot before washing the clothes.It does this by “feedback” into the robot to tell it what to do next.Our eyes，ears and other senses are our feedback.They tell us what is going on around us.So robots are like people in two ways.They work and they have feedback.But very few robots look like people.Many are hidden away.Robots control the temperature of our houses，our cookers，and our hot water systems.We can set the controls to the temperature we want.The robot does the rest.Its feedback usually comes from a thermostat(恒温器)．In some ways robots are better than people.They work quickly，but do not make mistakes.They do not get bored doing the same job over and over again.And they never get tired.So robots are very useful in factories.They can be taught to do many different jobs.First their electronic brains must be shown how the job is done.When the robot is needed for a new job，its electronic memory is “wiped clean”．Then it is taught how to do its new task.If the robot’s hand stops working，or if something gets in the way，it cannot do the next part of the job.So it stops and signals for help，then a human engineer attends to the fault.Robots are also used for doing jobs which are dangerous.They can move objects which are too hot or too heavy for people to handle.They can work in places which are too hot or too cold for people.And they are not affected by poisonous gases.The most“intelligent”robots can move and see.Their eyes are cameras.Their metal fingers can feel shapes and even find out how hot and cold objects are.These robots have computer brains，linked to their eyes and fingers，which control their actions.But of course，robots can never be more intelligent than us.The expensive robots are used in scientific research.They do such jobs as handling radioactive materials and all other such things.They are extremely useful to scientific researches.In one word，the invention of robots is really useful to all of us.1．In this story the author tells us that
