Why I wished to buy only one pair was unimportant. I turned into the first sock shop that caught my eye, and a boy clerk who could not have been more than seventeen years old came forward, “What can I do for you, sir？”“I wish to buy a pair of socks.”His eyes shone. There was a note of excitement in his voice，“Did you know that you had come into the finest place in the world to buy socks？”I had no idea of that, as my entrance had been accidental. “Come with me，”said the boy, eagerly. I followed him to the back of the shop, and he began to pull down from the shelves box after box showing their contents for my choice.“Hold on, lad, I am going to buy only one pair！”“I know that，”said he, “but I want you to see how beautiful these are. Arent they wonderful？” There was on his face an expression of seriousness and pride and delight as if he were showing to me the secrets of his religion. I became far more interested in him than in the socks. I looked at him in amazement. “My friend，”said I, “if you can keep this up, if this is not merely from having a new job, if you can keep up this high spirits and excitement day after day, in ten years you will own every sock in the United States.”36What did the writer want to buy one fine afternoon?AA pair of shoes. BA pair of socks.CTwo pairs of socks. DA set of books.37Which is true according to the passage?AThe shop was on the Second Road.BThe boy was 18 years old.CThe boy was not in high spirits.DThe writer entered the shop by chance.38What the writer said in the last paragraph means that_.Aif you dont work hard, you will lose the jobByou should keep on following your customersCif you keep up your great interest in your work, you will succeed in the futureDif you are too hardworking, you will failBSo, you have to give a speechand youre terrified. You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you stumble over words, you talk too long, and you bore your audience. Later you think, “Thank goodness, its over. Im just not good at public speaking. I hope I never have to do that again.”Cheer up! It doesnt have to be that bad. Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making. First of all, it is important to plan. Do your homework. Find out everything you can about your subject. And, at the same time, find out as much as you can about your audience. Who are they? What do they know about your subject? Do they have a common interest? Why are they coming to hear you speak? Put yourself in their shoes as you prepare your speech.Ask yourself the purpose of your speech. What is the occasion? Why are you speaking? Are you introducing another speaker? Moderating(主持)a discussion? Giving a lecture? Convincing someone? There are many possible speaking roles, and each one has its own special characteristics. Make sure you know into which category you fit. Dont spoil your speech by confusing one speaking role with another.Let us suppose that you have been asked to introduce the main speaker at a conference. First, find out the most important and interesting things about the speaker. Then, summarize the information in a few remarks. It is all right to tell a joke or an anecdote(趣闻)if it is in good taste and will not embarrass the speaker. And, most important, be brief. Remember, you are not the main speaker; you are introducing the main speaker.If you are a moderator, you should begin by giving a quick introduction of the people on the panel. After that, you should try to keep the discussion running smoothly, and you should try to focus on the connections between speakers. Keep yourself in the background. Dont talk too much, and dont interrupt the panelists. Be tactful and be considerate.If you are giving a lecture or explaining an idea, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of time doing your research. Then spend plenty of time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible, and use pictures, charts, and graphs if they will help you make your points more clearly. Never forget your audience. Dont talk over their heads, and dont talk_down_to_them. Treat your audience with respect. They will appreciate your thoughtfulness.If you are trying to sell something, you will need to convince your audience. Do you want them to vote for candidate A? Are you offering them a new, improved toothbrush? This kind of speech is usually dramatic, but here too, you must do your research and know your facts.When you are making your speech, try to relax, speak slowly and clearly and look at people in your audience. Use simple vocabulary and expressions whenever possible. Pause for a few seconds now and then to give your audience a chance to think about what you have said. Make sure that everyone in the room can hear you. If it is a large room or an auditorium, you will probably have to use a microphone.Just remember: Be prepared. Know your subject, your audience, and the occasion. Be brief. Say what you have to say and then stop. And be yourself. Let your personality come through so that you make persontoperson contact with your audience.If you follow these simple steps, youll see that you dont have to be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches! Youre not convinced yet? Give it a try and see what happens.39The main idea of this passage is_.Ayou can improve your speaking abilityBa poor speaker can never changeCalways make a short speechDthe purpose of speech40Paragraph 1 implies, but does not directly say, that_.Amany people are afraid of giving a speech Bmany people are happy to give a speechCmany people talk too long Dmany people are eager to give a speech41In paragraph 6“talk down to them”means_.Aspeak too simply Blook at the floorCspeak in a quiet voice Drefuse them42According to the passage, if you are a moderator, you should_.Atalk about yourself Bact as a“bridge”between speakersCgive a very long speech Dpay attention to the audience43According to the passage, which statement is true?AA successful speaker is always dramatic. BThe passage states how to make a good speech.CExplain how hard it is to make a speech. DMost people are good at making a public speech.C(2010全国)EDGEWOODEvery morning at Dixie Heights High School, customers pour into a special experiment: the districts first coffee shop run mostly by students with special learning needs.Well before classes start, students and teachers order Lattes, Cappuccinos and Hot Chocolates. Then, during the first period, teachers call in orders on their room phones, and students make deliveries.By closing time at 920 am., the shop usually sells 90 drinks.“Whoever made the chi tea, Ms. Schatzman says it was good，”Christy McKinley, a second year student, announced recently, after hanging up with the teacher.The shop is called the Dixie PIT, which stands for Power in Transition. Although some of the students are not disabled, many are, and the PIT helps them prepare for life after high school.They learn not only how to run a coffee shop but also how to deal with affairs. They keep a timecard and receive paychecks, which they keep in check registers.Special education teachers Kim Chevalier and Sue Casey introduced the Dixie PIT from a similar program at Kennesaw Mountain High School in Georgia.Not that it was easy. Chevaliers first problem to overcome was productrelated. Should schools be selling coffee? What about sugar content?Kenton Country Food Service Director Ginger Gray helped. She made sure all the drinks, which use nonfat milk, fell within nutrition(营养) guidelines.The whole school has joined in to help.Teachers agreed to give up their lounge (体息室) in the mornings. Art students painted the name of the shop on the wall. Business students designed the paychecks. The basketball team helped pay for cups.44What is the text mainly about?AA bestselling coffee. BA special educational program.CGovernment support for schools. DA new type of teacherstudent relationship.45The Dixie PIT program was introduced in order to _.Araise money for school affairs Bdo some research on nutritionCdevelop students practical skills Dsupply teachers with drinks46How did Christy McKinley know Ms. Schatzmans opinion of the chi tea?AShe met her in the shop. BShe heard her telling others.CShe talked to her on the phone. DShe went to her office to deliver the tea.47We know from the text that Ginger Gray _.Amanages the Dixie PIT program in Kenton Country Bsees that the drinks meet health standardsCteachers at Dixie Heights High School Downs the schools coffee shopDBeauty has always been regarded as something praiseworthy. Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier and healthier, have better marriages and have more respectable jobs. Even judges are softer on attractive defendants(被告). But in the executive(主管)circle, beauty can become a liability.While attractiveness is a positive factor of a man on his way up the executive ladder, it is harmful to a woman.Handsome male executives were considered as having more honesty than plainer men; effort and ability were thought to lead to their success.Attractive female executives were considered to have less honesty than unattractive ones; their successes were connected not with ability but with factors, such as luck. All unattractive women executives were thought to have more honesty and to be more capable than the attractive female executives. Interestingly though, the rise of the unattractive overnight successes was connected more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of the attractive overnight successes.Why are attractive women not thought to be able? An attractive woman is considered to be more feminine and an attractive man more manly than the less attractive ones. Thus, an attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs, but an attractive woman in a traditionally manly position appears to lack the“manly”qualities required.This is true even in politics. “When the only clue is how he or she looks, people treat men and women differently.”says Anne Bowman, who recently published a study on the effects of attractiveness on political candidates(候选人). She asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs, one of men and one of women, in order of attractiveness. The students were told the photographs were of candidates for political offices. They were asked to rank them again, in the order they would vote for them.The results showed that attractive males completely defeated unattractive men, but the women who had ranked most attractive unchangeably received the fewest votes.48The word“liability”most probably means_.Adisadvantage Badvantage Cmisfortune Dtrouble49In traditionally female jobs, attractiveness_.Amakes women look more honest and capable Bstrengthens the feminine qualities requiredCis of great importance to women Doften enables women to succeed quickly50It can be inferred from the passage that peoples view on beauty are often_.Apractical Bsupportive Coldfashioned Donesided.书面表达(满分25分)9月22日你所在的城市和另外107个城市开展了“无车日”活动，倡议人们选用公共汽车、自行车或步行等绿色交通方式来代替开私家车。该活动得到了全国人民的支持，提高了人们节约能源与保护环境的意识，活动很成功。下面请你用英语写一篇短文介绍该活动，并谈谈开展该活动的必要性，号召更多的城市和居民参与到该活动中来。注意：1不要逐句翻译，可适当发挥，以使行文连贯；2词数：100左右。3参考词汇：无车日Carfree Day；开展launch_
