47、 the titles of the books on the shelves. The man behind the counter, the owner of the bookstore, asked me if I would like a job. I needed to start saving for college, so I said yes. I worked after school and during summers for minimum wages and the job helped pay for my freshman year of college. I w
48、orked at many other jobs afterwards: I made coffee in the student union during college. I made maps for the U.S Forest Service. But selling books was one of the most satisfying. One day a woman asked me for books on cancer. She seemed fearful. I showed her everything we had and found other books we
49、could order. She left the shop less worried and Ive always remembered the pride I felt in having helped her. Years later, as a television reporter, I heard about a poor child who was born with his fingers of the left hand linked together. His family could not afford the corrective surgery, and the b
50、oy lived in shame, hiding his left hand in his pocket. I persuaded my boss to let me do the story on TV. After my story was broadcast, a doctor and a nurse called, offering to perform the surgery for free. I visited the boy in the recovery room after the operation. The first thing he did was hold up
51、 his repaired hand and say, “Thank you.” I was overjoyed and filled with a strong sense of reward. At McCarley Bookstore, I always felt I was working for the customers, not just for the store. Today its the same. NBC news pays me the salary. But I feel that I work for the viewers, helping them make
52、sense of the world. My working experience in McCarley Bookstore helped me find a good sense of the world, and most importantly, it helped me find a good sense of myself. 1. How did the author get the job in McCarley Bookstore? A. He happened to walk into the shop and got it by chance. B. He had alwa
53、ys wanted to have a job in that bookstore and he succeeded. C. He liked reading books, so tried to get a job there. D. He did not go to school, so he looked for a job when he was 15. 2. According to the author, selling books was one of the most satisfying job experiences, because _. A. he only had t
54、o work after school and got good wages B. it helped him understand the world and himself C. it helped him pay for his freshman year of college D. he did not feel that he was working for the store 3. After he helped the fearful lady looking for books on cancer, the author was _. A. worried about her
55、B. less worried about her C. unable to forget her D. proud of himself 4. The author decided to help the poor boy by _. A. persuading his boss to do the story on TV B. persuading his boss to let him do the story on TV C. asking a doctor to perform the operation for free D. visiting the boy in the rec
56、overy room after the operation 5. The main reason that the author thinks his present job is the same as the one in the bookstore is _. A. it gives him salary B. it makes him feel excited C. it helps people make sense of the world D. it enables him to work (Key: 1. A 2. B 3. D 4. B 5. C) Passage 2Pap
57、er was invented by the Chinese in the first century AD. Paper was not made in southern Europe until about the year 1100. Scandinavia - which now makes a great deal of the worlds paper - did not begin to make it until 1500. Most paper is made from wood. Paper-making is an important British industry a
58、nd paper from Britain is sold to many countries such as Australia and South Africa. Some of the wood used in the British paper making industry comes from trees grown in Britain, but wood is also bought from other countries such as Norway. One tree is needed for every four hundred copies of a forty-p
59、age newspaper. If half the adults in Britain buy one daily paper, this uses up over a thousand trees a day. All over the world, trees are being cut down faster than they are being planted, so there may be a serious need for paper at the beginning of next century. When we think of paper, we think of
60、newspaper, books, letters and writing paper. But there are many other uses. Only half of paper is used for books and newspaper, etc. Paper is very good for keeping you warm. Each year, more and more things are made of paper. Now we hear that chairs, tables, and even beds can be made of paper. But th
61、e latest in paper making seems to be paper houses. 1. Where was paper invented? A. In China. B. In southern Europe. C. In Scandinavia. D. In Britain. 2. Scandinavia began to make paper _. A. in 1100 B. in 1400 C. in 1500 D. in the first century 3. Every four hundred copies of a forty-page newspaper
62、will need _. A. half a tree B. one tree C. two trees D. more than one tree 4. All over the world, trees are being cut down _ than they are being planted. A. more slowly B. much faster C. much more slowly D. faster 5. The latest things made of paper are _. A. chairs B. tables C. clothes D. houses (Ke
63、y: 1. A 2. C 3. B 4. D 5. D) Passage 3We often use gestures to express our feelings, but the problem is that the gestures can be understood in different ways. It is true that a smile means the same thing in any language. So does laughter or crying . Fear is another emotion that is shown in much the
64、same way all over the world. In Chinese and in English literature, a phrase like he went pale and began to trem ble suggests that the man is either very afraid or he has just got a very big shock. However, he opened his eyes wide is used to suggest anger in Chinese whereas in English it means surpri
65、se. In Chinese, surprise can be described in a phrase like they stretched out their tongues! “Stretching out your tongue” in English is an insulting gesture or expresses strong dislike. Even in the same culture, people differ in their ability to understand and express feelings. Experiments in Americ
66、a have shown that women are usually better than men at recognizing fear, anger, love and happiness on people s faces. Other studies show that older people usually find it easier to recognize or understand body language than younger people do. 精选学习资料 - - - - - - - - - 名师归纳总结 - - - - - - -第 4 页,共 8 页5

D 2. D 3. A 4. D 5. C) Passage 4A funny thing happened on the way to the communication revolution: we stopp
72、ed talking to each other. I was walking in the park with a friend recently, and his mobile phone rang, interrupting our conversation. There we were, walking and talking on a beautiful sunny day and poof! I was cut off as if I had become absent from the conversation. The park was filled with people t
73、alking on their cell phones. They were passing people without looking at them, saying hello, noticing their babies or stopping to pat their dogs. It seems that the limitless electronic voice is preferred to human contact. The telephone used to connect you to the absent. Now it makes people feel abse
74、nt. Recently I was in a car with three friends. The driver hushed the rest of us because he could not hear the person on the other end of his cell phone. There we were, four friends driving down the highway, unable to talk to each other because of the small thing designed to make communication easie
75、r. Why is it that the more connected we get, the more disconnected I feel? Every advance in communications technology is a setback (退步) to the closeness of human interaction. With e-mail and instant message over the Internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another. With voic
76、e mail, you can make entire conversations without ever reaching anyone. If my mom has a question, I just leave the answer on her machine. As almost every contact between human beings gets automatic, the emotional distance index goes up. Pumping gas at the station? Why say good-morning to the assista
77、nt when you can swipe you credit card at the pump and save yourself the bother of human contact? Making a deposit at the bank? Why talk to the clerk who lives in the neighborhood when you can put your card into the ATM? More and more, I find myself hiding behind e-mail to do a job meant for conversa
78、tion or being relieved that voice mail picked up because I didnt really have time to talk. The technology devoted to helping me keep in touch is making me lonelier. I own a mobile phone, an ATM card, a voice-mail telephone, and an e-mail account. Giving them up isnt a choice. They are great for what
79、 they are intended to do. Its their unintended results that make me upset. What good is all this gee-whiz technology if there is no one in the room to hear you crying out “Gee whiz ”?1.

85、re deciding which city will host the Olympic Games, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has to examine bids from all over the world. Bidding for the games begins about ten years in advance. Without preparing a very strong bid1, a city will not win the competition to host the games. Beijing was
86、 chosen for the 2008 games from five bidders Osaka, Paris, Toronto and Istanbul.2Why does it take so long to prepare? Building the infrastructure costs huge amounts of money. Holding the World Cup in 2002 in Japan and South Korea, for example, meant that ten new stadiums had to be built, as well as
87、many hotels and an improved transport system. In Beijing, after winning the bid the government began major construction projects the extension of the underground, the improvement of the airport and the building of new motorways3. Each host city must also build an Olympic village for the athletes. By
