By talking with strangers, our lives can be affected in ways that are unusual. I worked in a restaurant in Chicago ,and I spent most of my time on work and hardly joined in “real” conversations. I didnt talk to unknown people. Similarly, I never knew the name of the woman I rode the train with every day, but the process ended in a life-changing way. One night, an old man , probably in his eighties, came in and sat beside me. I noticed that he came in week after week and always sat beside me. Slowly , I began having short conversations with him. His name was Mr. Rodgers. I learned that he and his wife had gone to dinner and watched a movie every Saturday . After she died, he carried on the tradition alone. I began looking forward to his coming in and telling me his stories. As the weeks went on, I began to enjoy talking with Mr. Rodgerrs. We talked about his wife, his days flying in the war, and his son who had grown up and moved away. Eventually, we began to talk about my dream and my experience. About four months after meeting Mr. Rodgers, I received a call from a nurse telling me that Mr .Rodgers was in hospital. He was experiencing an emergency heart surgery. I immediately drove to the hospital to see him .The first thing he did was thank me for helping him so much in his life. At first I didnt know what he was referring to . Then I remembered that about three weeks earlier, he was complaining about chest pains and I gave him the telephone number of a doctor I know. After meeting Mr.Rodgers, I have learned that strangers can become friends and that life can be much more enjoyable. I recently find myself really talking to customers at the restaurant. I have had a lot more fun, and the time has gone by faster.21.What does the “the process”in Paragraph 2 refer to ?A. living a lonely life B. Riding the train every day.C. Communicating with others. D. Avoiding speaking with strangers.22. What do we know about Mr.Rodgers from the text?A. He was always ready to help others .B. He vistited his son in Chicago every week.C. He lived alone after his wife passed away.D. He lost his wife when he was eighty years old.23. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Do talk to strangers B. Mr.Rodgershappy lifeC. From strangers to friends D. Help strangers when necessary. B Job seekers are trying to find positions because so many job openings are never even advertised online.The “hidden job market”is very real ,and it is causing frustration (挫折)among job seekers . You can find these jobs by determining what a company needs . Here are some ways to uncover those hidden job openings:Target (以.为目标)the company. Most companies now have their internal (内部的) job boards where they will post all job openings. Determine a list of companies you want to work for, find their job boards ,and then apply directly . This is the most direct way to find job openings in a specific company. Build your social network. Find people at your favorite companies to connect with on Linkedin (商务化人际关系网).Join the same industry groups and network there , or ask friends to introduce you . Once youre connected, show them your value by referring them to interesting articles and writing blog posts about the industry. Eventually when you see a job opening, ask them about it.Be bold (大胆的). Reach out to managers at a company youre interested in . Find out whos in charge of the department and introduce yourself. Even if there arent any jobs available at the moment, try to set up an informational interview. Let them know you want to learn more about what their team does. This might not lead to a job right away , but they might think of you for the next job opening.Create a new job . Stand out. Once youve connected with someone in the company, provide a way to a problem they dont even know they have. This might lead to the creation of new jobs. Since you come up with the idea, they might take you on board to set your plan into action.24.The “hidden job market” probably refers to _. A. the market where you can buy everything.B. job openings that are not shown publiclyC. a job that is not easy for common people to find D. something which is hidden somewhere online25.

His family was poor, and during his early education Pasteur was an ordinary student who enjoyed art and singing. However , when Pasteur was exposed to science as a teenager, he knew he had found his career. In 1838, Pasteur went to college to become a science teacher. He then became a chemistry professor at the University of Strasbourg. He got married in 1849 and had five children. However, three died young from typhoid fever (伤寒症). It was the deaths of his children that drove Pasteur to investigate the infectious disease in order to find a cure. During Pasteurs time, people believed that bacteria（细菌） appeared due to “spontaneous generation（自然发生）” . They thought that the bacteria just appeared out of nowhere. Pasteur carried out experiments to see if this was true. Through his experiments he proved that germs were living things that came from other living things. They didnt just spontaneously appear. This was a major discovery in the study of biology and earned Pasteur the title of Father of Germ Theory. As Pasteur learned more about bacteria, he began to think they may be the cause of diseases in humans. When the French silk market was threatened by a disease to silkworms (蝉), Pasteur decided to investigate. He discovered that this disease was caused by germs. By killing them from the silkworm farms, he was able to cease the disease and save the French silk business. Today Louis Pasteur is known as one of the most important scientists in history. His discoveries led to an understanding of bacteria and diseases that has helped save millions and millions of lives. 28. After his childrens deaths, Louis Pasteur_ . A. became afraid of infectious diseasesB. was frustrated and wanted to do nothing C. decided to find out how to treat the disease D. didnt know it was typhoid fever that caused their deaths 29. What is implied about Louis Pasteurs discovery in Paragraph 3? A. It supported what most people thought at that time. B. It revealed that bacteria often appeared out of nowhere. C. It attracted the attention of the Father of Germ Theory. D. It was a very important discovery in the history of biology. 30. What does the underlined word “cease in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. End. B. Find. C. Develop. D. Spread. 31. What is the text mainly about? A. A disease that killed children easily in history. B. A great scientist in the field of biology in history. C. Some of the most important scientists in history. D. Some of the most important discoveries in history. D According to a recent study out of the University of Pennsylvanias Wharton school, men with shaved heads are considered to be more manly, powerful and successful than those with longer hair or thinning(稀疏的)hair. Besides , in some cases, they are considered to have greater leadership potential (潜力). That may explain why the power-buzz look has become popular among business leaders in recent years. Albert Mannes ,Wharton management lecturer, said he was encouraged to do the research after noticing that he was treated with more respect when he shaved off his own thinning hair. Mannes did three experiments to test peoples impressions of men with shaved 344 subjects photos of the same men in two versions: one showing the men with hair and the other showing them with their hair digitally removed, so their heads appear shaved. In all three tests, the subjects reported finding the men with shaved heads as more dominant (占优势的) than their hairy counterparts (对应的人).The study found that men with thinning hair were viewed as the least attractive and powerful. For those men, the solution could be as cheap and simple as a shave.New York image consultant Julie Rath advised her clients to get closely cropped when they start thinning up top. “Theres something really strong, powerful and confident about laying it all bare (光秃的)，she said, describing the thinning look as kind of raunchy(不修边幅的).Not everyone needs a bare head. Rick Devine, 55, the CEO of Devine Capital Parners, advised executive candidates attracted by their clippers to keep their hair closely cropped, rather than completely shaved. “It is way too much image risk,” he said . “The best thing you can do in a business meeting is to make your look not an issue.”32. We can learn from Paragraph 1 that men with shaved heads are more likely to _. A. be liked by their leaders . B. become business leaders C. be laughed at by their leaders D. feel stressed from their work33. Albert Mannes decided to do the research_. A. long before he shaved his own thinning hairB. when he was looked down upon because of his thinning hairC. when people treated him more respectfully after he shaved his thinning hair.D. when he noticed that others began to shave their thinning hair34. The underlined part in Paragraph 4 probably means that the solution is to _. A. buy a pair of cheap scissors . B. have a cheap shave C. keep their thinning hair D. shave their own thinning hair35. Whats the authors attitude toward mens bare heads?A .Objectjive B. Negative. C. Positive. D. Doubtful.第二节：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。选项中有两项是多余选项。(每小题2分) Teamwork is the ability to work together with other team members toward a common goal. 36 Many factors influence the working of a team. If a team cant get the desired results, try the following ways that would help improve teamwork. Planning goals ahead:37 When a goal is planned , all team members should be clear about their goals they have to achieve and then they should find a way that would lead them to achieve their goals. Appointing (任命)team leader: A team is led by the team leader. 38 It is the leaders responsibility to resolve the conflicts (冲突)caused by different characters and attitudes. Maintaining good relationship between team members: Teamwork needs cooperation (合作). 39 So it would also be great if the team members can communicate outside the work place to know each other more. This will help increase a sense of togetherness at work, thus improving teamwork. Avoiding competition: Competition is important for a persons growth. 40 One should understand that each person has his or her own strengths and weaknesses. Rather than compete with each other in the team, one should learn from others and improve ones performance. A. It would be good for their cooperation if the members know each other well.B. But there are many difficulties in teamwork.C. The ability can help common people achieve uncommon goals.D. His or her duty is to encourage and lead the team members to achieve their goal.E. The goals should be easy enough to achieve.F. However, unhealthy competition among group members can hurt team spirit.G.
