of a global pany.He was once close to achieving that lifelong goal but his burst of anger at a meeting literally scuttled the directorsdecision to appoint him as CEO.Martin left that pany immediately and despite all of his leadership assets，he didnt realize his career goal elsewhere.There is a leader typePerilous.A significant majority (60%) of business executives fell into the Perilous category.Like Martin，these leaders were capable of leading remarkably well at times，but underlying issuesfrustration，disappointment，and the envy of more successful peersinfluenced their leadership behavior.For those of you with a Perilous boss，here are some suggestions that could help you “manage” him/her：Be open with your ments about their talents and acplishmentsespecially in front of people who are senior to them.(If it hadnt been for Johns quick problemsolving，we could not have succeeded.)Give timely and constructive feedback when the boss says or does things that can have potentially bad effects.(I understand your frustration but the way you blew up in the meeting this morning was not proper.)Tell the boss about personal issues that may be distracting a key employee.(Bobs son was just diagnosed with a serious illness；it would be helpful if you told him not to worry about it.)Let the boss know when he/she has behaved in a manner that is perceived as more selfserving than in the interest of the team.(People believe your push for these results is more about you getting your next promotion.It could help if you acknowledged how hard everyone worked right now.)语篇解读如果你碰到了像Martin一样的老板，你该怎么做呢？1What can we learn about Martin?AHe had no talent for leadership.BHe had the potential to bee a CEOCHe worked only in one pany.DHe realized his career goal at

underlined word “scuttled” in Paragraph 1 mean?AAllowed.BPrevented.CControlled.DImproved.解析：词义猜测题。他曾经接近达到他的终身目标，但是他在一次会上的发火阻止了领导指定他当CEO的决定。答案：B3According to the passage，if your boss did something improper，you should_.Alet him know itBpretend not to see itCstop others from learning about itDreport it to his seniors解析：推理判断题。根据第五段中的Give timely and constructive feedback when the boss says or does

both bioengineering experts；unlike similar scientists you have seen in the movies，they both have a sense of humor.What surprises me is that Kurpinski and Johnson are able to take something as plicated as DNA and make it understandable.The book How to Defeat Your Own Clone teaches us what is now known as DNAencoded (编码)，how that happens，and why people with similar DNA dont look or act the same.The book not only helps us get a basic understanding of what DNA and its purpose are，but also explains cloning and stem cell (干细胞) research.It occurs to me that a lot of people who are against stem cell research dont know what they are protesting about.The authors provide a history of cloning，as well as information about stem cells.The real fun starts when the authors attack various myths about cloning.Obviously，too many people have been watching too many bad movies and television programs.Remember theyre just fictional stories.If，somehow，scientists manage to clone you，twenty years from now your clone isnt going to kill you.Among the myths explored and exploded are that a clone will know everything you know and will act as you do，that heads which are cut off can be kept alive，and that a clone has no belly button (肚脐)Many of the myths are ridiculous but many people believe them.Kurpinski and Johnson also detail some bioimprovements “that really work”You see，genes can be controlled to help you sleep better and bee smarter，healthier，and taller.Well.not exactly you，but future generations.If you do wind up in a battle with your own clone，who will be considerably younger than you，remember that it is not you and that it doesnt know what you know.语篇解读本文介绍了一本关于克隆知识的书。5Many bioengineering experts in movies are_.AhumorousBwealthyCseriousDcrazy解析：推理判断题。从第一段的unlike similar scientists you have seen in the movies，they both have a sense of humor可知电影中的生物工程学家一般都是没有幽默感的。答案：C6We can learn from the passage that biotechnology_.Ahas been banned in many countries around the worldBis being used to improve ones intelligence right nowCcan help improve the physical condition of future generationsDis sure to care any disease in the near future解析：推理判断题。从第四段的genes can be controlled to help you sleep better and bee smarter，healthier，and taller.Well.not exactly you，but future generations可知C项正确。答案：C7According to the passage，a clone of you_.Awill want to kill youBknows whatever you knowChas no belly buttonDwill be younger than you解析：细节理解题。从最后一段的who will be considerably younger than you可知D项正确。答案：D8The passage was written mainly to_.Apredict the future of cloningBintroduce two bioengineering expertsCreview a book on cloningDprotest against movies about cloning解析：作者意图题。第一段主要描述了How to Defeat Your Own Clone一书作者的情况和写作风格，第二、三、四段主要介绍了此书的内容并发表了相关感想，最后一段是其他一些感想，由此可见本文的主要目的是记录此书的观后感。答案：C
