Usually dressed in red and always seated in the front row, she is always the first or second reporter the president calls upon. It is an honor she has earned. Besides, it affords her the perfect opportunity to do what she does best-challenge the president and other public officials to tell the plain truth. She said,“ We reporters priority （ 首要事情 ） is the people s right to know-without fear or favor. We are the people s servants. ”Helen Thomas was born in Kentucky in 1920. All the nine Thomas children were brought up to value education, and all were expected tomake something of themselves through working hard. Shemade up her mind while still in high school to become a reporter after writing for the student newspaper. After receiving her bachelor s degree in 1942, Thomas headed straight for Washington, D. C. in search of a newspaper job. Before long, she landed one at Washington Daily News. Her duty included fetchi ng coffee and doughnuts for the paper s reporters and editors. The eager young womanfound the atmosphere exciting and was convinced she had made the right career choice.Her big break came when she was sent to Florida to report on the vacation of President-electJohn F. Kennedy and his family. Once President Kennedy took office, Thomas changed her focus from the president s family to his policies. She began attending the daily press briefings at the White House as well as presidential press conferences. Thomas has covered every president sinceKennedy. Over the years.

A Reporter for Washington DailyBTo be successful in any aspect of life, you need to know when to use the carrot or the stick.Here are a few tips to help you decide whether it s better to use the carrot or the stick.With the kidsThe carrotWhen it comes to raising a kid, the carrot or the stick dilemma is quickly disappearing as too many parents take the carrot approach to the extreme. In child raising, the carrot should never be materialistic things. If you want to ask for good behavior with a reward, it should be with something that can t be bought, say, trust.The stickNowadays, no one likes to use the stick any more, or in my father s case, the belt. I m notoverlooking child abuse, if you ever want to call it that, but I amencouraging parents to toughen up a bit. You don t want your kid to test your limits only to find out he can get away with it.If you want to raise a kid, raise the hand and let him know it comes down on the second offense.At the officeThe carrotPeople need encouragement and motivation to perform well. However, the carrot only really works well with employees who have already proved themselves. If you ve got someone who can t showup at the office before noon, the promise of a raise isn t going to do much. On the contrary,if there s a guy with a good work moral, he ll thrive (grow stronger) when you add a promotion to the picture.The stickWhen considering the carrot or the stick in the office, remember that, overall, the stick is the more practical method in the office. A wise man, who just happened to be an Italian, once said “ It s best to be both loved and feared. ” It s nice to have everyone love you, but running a business isn t like running a family. You need to have the stick constantly raised.With the wifeThe carrotWhenit comes to marriage, always use the carrot. I ve had a lovely marriage for many years, and I ve always stuck to the carrot approach.Sometimes you catch more flies with honey, and sometimes it s the crack of a whip (鞭子 )that gets the horse moving. Try not to use too many sticks at home; the carrot is much more fun.25. What is the best title of this passage?A. The Carrot or the Stick?B. The Introduction to the Carrot and the StickC. Tips in the Daily LifeD. The Advantages of the Carrot and the Stick26. According to the passage, the author s father.A. often abused him in his childhood.B. applied the Stick in raising the child.C. beat him a lot with a belt.D. overlooked child abuse27. Which do you think is the best to be a good boss at the office?A. Always using carrots.B. Eating a lot of carrots.C. Being both loved and feared.D. Using too many sticks.28. Which is NOT true according to the passage?A. The author often gives more carrots to his wife to eat at home.B. The carrot is much more fun when it comes to marriage.C. On different occasions, the carrot or the stick is effective.D. You need the stick to get your horses to move faster occasionally.CSleeping in a room with too much light has been linked to an increased risk of piling on the pounds, a study shows. A team at the Institute of Cancer Research in London found womenhad larger waistlines if their bedroom was “light enough to see across at night, However, they caution there is not enough evidence to advise people to buy thicker curtains or turn off lights.The women were asked to rate the amount of light in their bedrooms at night as: Light enough to read. Light enough to see across the room, but not read. Light enough to see your hand in front of you, but not across the room. Too dark to see your hand or you wear a mask.Prof. Anthony Swerdlow told the BBC:In this very large group of people there is anassociation between reported light exposure at night and overweight and obesity. But there is not sufficient evidence to know if making your room darker would make any difference to your weight. There might be other explanations for the association, but the findings are intriguing enough to guarantee further scientific investigation.”The light is disrupting the body clock, which stems from our evolutionary past when we were active when it was light in the day and resting when it was dark at night. Light alters mood, physical strength and even the way we process food in a 24-hour cycle. Artificial light is known to disrupt the body clock by delaying the production of the sleep hormone melatonin(褪黑素)Prof. Derk-Jan Dijk said there would be no harm in trying to make bedrooms darker. He told the BBC: People in general are not aware of the light present in their bedroom. I think people should assess their bedroom and see how easy it would be to make it darker. Street lights, some alarm clocks and standby lights on electrical equipment such as televisions could light a room, he said. Overall this study points to the importance of darkness,“ he concluded.29. The passage mainly tells us.A. bright bedrooms link to obesityB. dark bedrooms link to obesityC. people should turn off lightsD. people should buy thicker curtains30. What does the underlined worda disrupt ” (Paragraph 4) mean?A. stop.B. disturbC. improve.D. recover.31. What s Prof. Derk-Jan Dijk s attitude towards the dark room?A. Unclear.B. Doubtful.C. Negative.D. Favorable.DI left university with a good degree in English Literature, but no sense of what I wanted to do. Over the next six years, I was treading water, just trying to earn an income, I tried journalism, but I didn t think I was any good, then finance, which I hated. Finally, I got a job as a rightsassistant at a famous publisher.I loved working with books, although the job that I did was dull.I had enough savings to take a year off work, and I decided to try to satisfy a deep-down wish to write a novel. Attending a Novel writing MA course gave me the structure I needed to write my first 55, 000 words.It takes confidence to make a new start-there s a dark period in - between where you re neitherone thing nor the other. You re out for dinner and people ask what you do, and you re too ashamed to say,“Well, I m writing a novel, but I m not quite sure if I m going to get there. Myconfidence dived. Believing my novel could not be published, I put it aside.Then I met an agent who said I should send my novel out to agents. So, I did and, to my surprise, got some wonderful feedback. I felt a littlehope that I might actually become a published writerand, after signing with an agent, I finished the second half of the novel.The next problem was finding a publisher.After two and a half years of no income, just waitingand wondering, a publisher offered me a book deal- that publisher turned out to be the one Ionce worked for.It feels like an unbelievable stroke of luck of fate, really. Whenyou set out to do something different, there s no end in sight, so to find myself in a position where I now have my own nameon a contract of the publisher- to be a published writer- is unbelievably rewarding.32. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1 mean?A. I was waiting for good fortune.B. I was trying to find an admirable job.C. I was being aimless about a suitable job.D. I was doing several jobs for more pay at a time.33. The author decided to write a novel.A. to finish the writing courseB. to realize her own dreamC. to satisfy readers wishD. to earn more money34.

There is no end in sight when starting to do something.第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两 项为多余选项。Surprising Benefits of Having a DogDogs offer more than just companionship.
