Our bakery bread is delicious without all that effort.”Begging was useless. Moms “no” meant “No!”But several weeks later, opportunity knocked. My parents were going out for the evening. I immediately invited Hanna to be my partner in bread-baking crime.We studied the recipe. That was easy. “Mix oil into flour then beat in four eggs, one at a time, with remaining sugar and salt.” We were not good at breaking eggs. I tried to learn from my mother.“Gradually add eight cups of flour. When dough (面团) holds together, squeeze it.”We took turns working like that. “Is the dough holding together?” we asked each other.I remembered my neighbors instructions: “If its too sticky, add some flour; if too dry, add water.”We added water. Then more flour. Then more water. By then, the mass of our dough had grown very much.“Place dough on floured surface and squeeze till smooth,” the recipe instructed.We took turns burying our hands in the damp dough, pinching, squeezing, and feeling it leak between fingers. “Clean and oil bowl, and then return dough to bowl. Cover and let dough rise in a warm place for one hour.”This was good newswed have a break. On the dirty kitchen chairs, we dreamed about our beautiful bread. “See?” we would tell my mom. “Isnt it worth the work?”Hanna and I couldnt help glancing at the rising process every few minutes. But nothing happened.“Maybe something will happen in the hot oven,” I said.Unfortunately, when we removed the loaves from the oven, they were like hard stones.Mom was right; it takes time and effort. It sometimes makes a mess. But still it feels good, somehow, to be part of that long, ongoing chain of bread bakers. Since that night, both Hanna and I have learned to do it right.36. To the writer, what her mother said was _.A. lawB. rubbishC. adviceD. warning37. Which of the following can best describe the childrens feelings while making their first bread?A.

The passage mainly tells us _.A. the process of making bread B. the conflict between mother and daughterC. the first experience of making bread D. the way of doing housework BIn Britain, in a population of 60 million, there are 13 million grandparents, many of whom live alone a long way from their grandchildren.The loneliness of these older people has become an issue that schools are trying to teach children about .On a popular teachers website, there is a classroom activity to help make children aware of the implications of the different generations of the same family living far from each other. Its a story about Mrs. Eiderdown, an elderly lady whose grandchildren have moved to Australia with their parents. She lives alone and rarely sees her family .First of all, the children speculate about Mrs. Eiderdowns life. What does she have for breakfast ? what does she do all day ?how does she feel about her life ?One day, Mrs. Eiderdown decides that she wants a pet to keep her company and puts an advertisement in a local shop window. Then she waits at home to see if anyone will answer her advertisement .A tall thin man rings her doorbell. he is holding a cardboard box. Mrs. Eiderdown chats with the man for ten minutes before she realizes that she hasnt looked in-side the box to see what the pet is. She can hear a his-sing sound. The children guess what is in the box(a snake). Mrs. Eiderdown thanks the man but says she doesnt think the snake is a good idea .The next time the doorbell rings, theres a lady on the doorstep, also carrying a cardboard box.In the bottom of the box, Mrs. Eiderdown sees something black and hairy with eight legs. Again ,the children say what they think it is (a spider). Mrs. Eiderdown thanks the lady for her kindness but says that a spider is not the sort of pet she has in mind.At last, the little girl next door brings her a dog .Mrs. Eiderdowns life improves a lot because of the dog. more importantly, of course, the little girl, whose own granny lives a long way away, starts to visit Mrs.Eiderdown more often. This interactive classroom idea has led to a greater awareness among children about the possible loneliness of older people who live quite near them .40.whats the main idea of the passage?A.children get to know about the trouble of the elderly B. neighbors help select pets for Mrs. EiderdownC. society helps the lonely people in the UKD. school send pets to the lonely elderly41.what does the underlined sentence in the third paragraph mean ?A. they talk about how she feels about being oldB. they try to experience her lonelinessC. they try to imagine how she lives D. they write about her life story42. what can we infer from the passage ?A. the little girl often visits her own grannyB. the people who offer pets are ladys neighborsC. the farther the elderly live ,the lonelier they feelD. the little girl begins to care more about Mrs. EiderdownCGet a FREE YEAR!

But what are these really, and how do they operate?Leadership today is not about forcing others to do things, if this is even possible,it is short-term, and tends to backfire. If you order someone to do something against their will,they may do it because they feel they must,but the anger they feel will do more harm in the long-term,they will also experience fear.Fear causes the thinking brain to shut down, making the person unable to function at his or her best. If they associate you with this emotion of fear,they will become less functional around you ,and you will have succeeded in not only shooting yourself in the foot, but possibly making a very good employee or partner unable to perform effectively .Fear has no place in leadership.The way we influence people in a lasting way is by our own character,and our understanding and use of emotion. We can order someone to do something ,which may be part of the work day; or we can employ them at the emotional level, so they became fully devoted to the projects and provide some of their own motivation. Todays work place is all about relationshipsas a human being as well as a worker, Everyone produces just a bit more for someone they like. Leaders understand the way things work. They know the pay check is not the single most motivating factor in the work life of most people.The true strength of leadership is an inner strength that comes from the confidence of emotional intelligence-knowing your own emotions, and how to handle them, and those of others . Developing your emotional intelligence is the single best thing you can do if you want to develop your relationships with people around you, which is the key to the leadership skills.47. An employee may have a feeling of fear in the work place when_.A. he is forced to do things B. be cannot work at his best C. he feels his brain shut down D. he thinks of his work as too heavy 48. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A.People tend to associate leadership with fear B.Working conditions affect peoples physical healthC. Good relationship is the key to business successD. Smart people are more functional in the work place49. To positively influence employees a leader should first of all _A. provide better suggestions B. develop his own personalityC.give his employees a pay rise D. hide his own emotion of fear 50.Good leadership is mainly seen in a leaders ability to_A. provide a variety of project for employeesB. help raise employees living standardsC. give employees specific instructionsD. deal wisely with employees emotions第二节：（共5小题；每小题3分,满分15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。选项中的两项为多余选项。_51_When a person does a certain thing again, he is impelled( 迫使) by someunseen force to do the same thing repeatedly; thus a habit is formed.
