On ing home one day, they realized that the lift wasnt working and that the only choice was the stairway.By the time they reached the 20th floor, they were breathing quickly and tired, so they decided to abandon their bags and e back for them the next day. When they struggled to the 40th floor, the younger brother started to plain and both of them began to quarrel all the way to the 60th floor. They then realized that they had only 20 more floors to climb, and decided to stop quarreling and continued climbing in peace. They silently climbed on and arrived home at last. Both of them stood calmly in front of the door. After a short rest, they suddenly realized that the key was in their bags which were left on the 20th floor. This story is a reflection of our lives. Many of us live under the high expectations of our parents, teachers, and friends. We seldom get to the things we really like and love and we are under so much pressure and stress that by the age of 20, we get tired and decide to lighten the load. Being free of the pressure and stress, we work enthusiastically and have high hopes. But by the time were 40 years old, we start to lose our dreams. We begin to feel unsatisfied and start to plain and criticize. Reaching 60, we realize that we have little left for plaining any more and we began to walk the final stage in peace and calmness. We think that there is nothing left to disappoint us. Only to realize that we could not rest in peace because we still have unrealized dream a dream we gave up 60 years ago. 25. What happened to the two brothers that day?A. They were trapped in the lift. B. They lost their bags in the lift.C. They locked their key in the room.D. They had to climb the stairs home.26. How did the two men probably feel the moment they stood in front of their door?A. Upset. B. Inspired. C. Pleased. D. Anxious.27. According to the passage, our pressure and stress mainly es from _. A. the expectations of people around us B. the heavy burden of our social responsibilityC. our great desire for successD. our anxieties about getting older28. What is the best title of the passage?A. Make careful plans, avoid getting into troubleB. Follow your dreams, and never live with regretsC. Calm down and live a peaceful lifeD. Be free of stress and pressure, enjoy lifeC So you want to draw money from a bank? Do it yourself. Want to fix the Internet connection? Do it yourself. Need a boarding card for your flight? Do it yourself. In theory, panies can save money by replacing human workers with automated self-service systems, while customers gain more choices and get quicker service. Surely the expansion of self-service into more and more areas is to be weled? Not necessarily. When it is done well, self-service can do good to both panies and customers. But when done badly who has not found themselves trapped in a series of endless touchtone menus? In areas where self-service is only just started, this is less of a problem: angry customers can after all, always take their business elsewhere. But if every bank were to prefer self-service systems, customers would no longer be able to express their discount by voting with their feet. As a result, some banks, for example, already promise that their telephone-banking services always offer the choice of talking to a human operator. But in return for human service, many panies will simply charge more. Another disagreement to self-service is that while it saves panies money, it does not always save their customers time. In the best cases, it does, of course: checking yourself in at the airport can be quicker than queuing or making a phone call. But as more and more tasks are on to customers, they may start to hope for the days of old-fashioned service. All of this suggests that there are limits to how far self-service can be taken. panies that go too far down the self-service route or to do it incorrectly are likely to find themselves being punished. Instead, a balance between self-service and traditional forms of service is necessary.29. What advantages does the self-service technology certainly bring?A. Cutting the cost for the panies.B. Saving money for customers.C. Offering customers extra money. D. Defeating the traditional forms of service.30. What does the writer mean by saying “customers would no longer be able to express their discount by voting with their feet”?A. Customers would be so angry that they kick and damage the machine providing self-service.B. Customers would not be able to express their anger at the banks service by leaving there.C. Customers would try their best to persuade the bank to stop self-service.D. Customers would elect some leaders to have a talk with the bank.31. From this passage, we can see that the writer_ the use of self-service.A. dislikesB. supportsC. thinks highly ofD. makes careful judgment onD Ive recently returned from a trip to China where Starbucks signed two historic Memoranda of Understanding to invest (投资) in growing high-quality coffee in Yunnan Province. Well be cooperating with the Peoples Government of Puer City (Yunnan Province) and the Yunnan Academy of Agricultural Sciences. These agreements signal cooperation between Starbucks and China to revolutionize the Chinese coffee market and help local farmers there grow new, high-quality coffees that are sure to be prized throughout the world. Although we will continue to buy coffees from many countries, this opportunity allows us to help build Chinas specialty coffee market. Well open another Farmer Support Center, manage a base farm to grow coffee for production. We will also operate wet and dry factories. Between the agriculturists and partners with years of leadership in the coffee industry, we have the experience necessary to be very successful. I am excited about the great opportunity this partnership represents. But whats even more rewarding is the opportunity to give back to the farmers in this area. During my visit, I met with 156 excited farmers who represent the 27 ethnic tribes (少数民族) that live in the rural area of Yunnan. This is the ideal region with the perfect climate for growing specialty coffee in China. The area is Puer, known for its beauty and also its wonderful teas. We are looking forward to this historic partnership with the Chinese government and Yunnan farmers. For us, this will be a market with huge potential for growth. For the farmers, this means hope for a brighter, more stable business that respects the people and the land of this area. We are doing something truly special. In just a few short years, we will reinvent the coffee business in China and bring an awareness of Yunnan coffee to the rest of the world. 32. What seems to be a big piece of news to Yunnan Province?
