Al Herpin was 90 years old when the doctors came to his home in New Jersey. They thought for sure that he got some sleep of some kind. So they stayed with him and watched every movement he made. But they were surprised. Though they watched him hour after hour and day after day. They never saw Herpin sleeping. In fact, he did not even own a bed. He never needed one.The only rest that Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a fortable chair and reading newspapers. The doctors were puzzled by this strange continuous sleeplessness. They found only one answer that might explain his condition. Herpin remembered some talk about his mother having been injured several days before he was born. But that was all.

Tony went there to look for his family membersC Several days ago, a Beijing-based IT pany fired about 400 people overnight. No one had expected the job cuts, which broke with traditional ways of letting go of workers in China. Moreover, what was special about this case was that the day before the 400 were fired, they all received from their boss a giftthe book “Who Moved My Cheese?” The booka bestseller in the USis being used by men and women to deal with changes in their lives and work. Some large organizations, including Coca-Cola, Kodak and General Motors, ask their employees to read it in order to encourage them to be active towards changes. Cheese is something related to everyones livelihood-Our jobs, the industries we work in, relationships and love as well. With Chinas official entry into the WTO, the whole nation will face up to more changes and challenges. So what we should do once this “cheese” on which we are so dependent is moved? “Whatever challenges and changes we meet, we should face up to them bravely,” Jiang Hengwei, a civil servant said after reading the book. Professor Zhang Yang in Renmin University of China agrees. “We should change our way of thinking. The ing petitive foreign panies and products provide us with great chances to learn from them and improve our own products to meet international standards and be more petitive.” “With hard work and wisdom, we will create a much larger and better piece of cheese.” Zhang smiled confidently. 64. The whole passage is about_. A. a bestseller in the US B. what people think about Chinas entry into the WTO C. the change in peoples attitude towards changes and challenges D. how a book influences the Chinese workers65. The pany in Beijing gave each of the 400 fired workers a copy of “Who Moved My Cheese ”in order to_. A. be more petitive with foreign firms B. find an excuse for their job cuts C. let the workers make a living on their own D. encourage the fired workers66. The word “cheese” in the passage can refer to_. A. something we depend on B. a most important kind of food C. change or challenge D. way of life67. From what Heng wei and Professor Zhang Yang said, we can know that_. A. they have different opinions on changes and challenges B. people are not afraid of petition from foreign panies C. the Chinese people are ready to face any changes and challengesD. they are both greatly encouraged by the bookD Many artists late in the last century were in search of a means to express their individuality. Modern dance was one of the ways some of these people sought to free their creative spirit. The beginnings of modem dance were happening before Isadora Duncan, but she was the first person to bring the new dance to general audiences and see it accepted and acclaimed. Her search for a natural movement form sent her to nature. She believed movement should be as natural as the swaying of the trees and the rolling waves of the sea. Her great contributions are in three areas. First, she began the expansion of the kinds of movements that could be used in dance. Before Duncan danced, ballet was the only type of dance performed in concerts. In the ballet the feet and legs were emphasized, with virtuosity (技巧高超) shown by plicated, codified positions and movements. Duncan performed dance by using all her body in the freest possible way. Her dance stemmed from (源自) her soul and spirit. She was one of the pioneers who broke tradition so others might be able to develop the art. Her second contribution lies in dance costumes (服装). She discarded corset, ballet shoes, and stiff costumes. These were replaced with flowing clothes, bare feet, and unlimited hair. She believed in the natural body being allowed to move freely, and her dress displayed this ideal. Her third contribution was in the use of music. In her performances she used the symphonies (交响乐) of great masters, including Beethoven and Wagner, which was not the usual custom. She was as exciting and eccentric in her personal life as in her dance. 68. The best title for the passage would be“_”. A. Dance in the Twentieth Century B. Artists of the Last Century C. Natural Movement in Dance D. A Pioneer in Modern Dance69. According to the passage, nature meant_ to Duncan. A. something to conquer B. a model for movement C. a place to find peace D. a symbol of disorder70. The paragraph following the passage most probably discusses_. A. Duncans further contribution to modern dance B. The music customarily used in ballet C. other aspects of Duncans lifeD. audience acceptance of the new form of dance第二节:(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10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.选项中有两项为多余选项.Food is life; it gives us the nourishment （营养） we need to stay alive and be healthy_71_ Brian Wansink, a professor at the University of Illinois, says we also eat certain foods because they make us feel good, and remind us of happy memoriesWansink calls this kind of food fort foodFor some people, ice cream is a fort foodFor others, a bowl of noodles soup makes them feel good_72_ Professor Wansink believes that we connect food with important times, feelings, and people in our lives“When I was a child, my mother made a delicious soup; I loved it_73_ And it helps me feel better,” Says one of Wansinks coworkersDo men and women choose different fort foods?
