But the only thing that wasnt very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldnt catch anything. I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why. He always answered, “Son, if you want to catch a fish, you have to think like a fish”, I remember being even more upset then because, “Im not a fish!” I didnt know how to think like a fish. Besides, I reasoned, how could what I think influence what a fish does?As I got a little older I began to understand what my dad really meant. So, I read some books on fish. And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings. I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature. That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer. Besides, water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish dont have any eyelids(眼皮) and the sun huts their eyes The more I understood fish, the more I became effective at finding and catching them.When I grew up and entered the business world, I remember hearing my first boss say, “We all need to think like sales people.” But it didnt completely make sense. My dad never once said, “If you want to catch a fish you need to think like a fisherman.” What he said was, “You need to think like a fish.” Years later, with great efforts to promote long-term services to people much older and richer than me, I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers. It is not an easy job. I will show you how in the following chapters.1. What did the authors father really mean?A. To read about fish. B. To learn fishing by oneself.C. To understand what fish think.

Written accounts from the 18th and 19th centuries described flocks (群)so large that they the sky for hours. It was calculated that when its population reached its highest point ,they were more than 3billlion passenger pigeonsa number equal to 24 to 40 percent of the total bird population in the United States, making it perhaps the most abundant bird in the world. Even as late as 1870 when their numbers had already become smaller, a flock believed to be 1 mile wide and 320 miles (about 515 kilometers) long was seen near Cincinnati. Sadly the abundance of passenger pigeons may have been their undoing. Where the birds were most abundant, people believed there was an ever-lasting supply and killed them by the thousands, Commercial hunters attracted them to small clearings with grain, waited until pigeons had settled to feed, then threw large nets over them, taking hundreds at a time. The birds were shipped to large cities and sold in restaurants. By the closing decades of the 19th century ,the hardwood forests where passenger pigeons nested had been damaged by Americans need for wood, which scattered (驱散) the flocks and forced the birds to go farther north, where cold temperatures and storms contributed to their decline. Soon the great flocks were gone, never to be seen again. In 1897, the state of Michigan passed a law prohibiting the killing of passenger pigeons but by then, no sizable flocks had been seen in the state for 10 years. The last confirmed wi pigeon in the United States was shot by a boy in Pike County, Ohio, in 1900. For a time , a few birds survived under human care. The last of them, known affectionately as Martha, died at the Cincinnati Zoological Garden on September 1, 1914.12. In the 18th and early 19teh centuries, passenger pigeons_. A. were the biggest bird in the world B. lived mainly in the south of AmericaC. did great harm to the natural environment D. were the largest bird population in the Us13. The underlined word “ undoing” probably refers to the pigeons _. A. escape B. ruin C. liberation解放 D. evolution进化14. What was the main reason for people to kill passenger pigeons? A. To seek pleasure. B. To save other birds. C. To make money. D. To protect crops.15. What can we infer about the law passed in Michigan? A. It was ignored by the public. B. It was declared too late. C. It was unfair. D. It was strict. 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。 Swapping Houses for Vacation When budgeting预算 for a vacation, usually the most expensive part of the trip is the accommodationsThe traditional way to take a vacation is to pack some bags, lock up the house, and travel to a new place to stay in a hotelHowever, hotels are very expensive, and with rent or housing loan（贷款）due every month, its difficult for most people to pay for yet another place to stay 16 Luckily, there is a substitute called house swapping, and its saving tourists a great deal of cash 17 For example, if a couple from New York want to spend a week in Paris, they would place an ad offering to trade their New York apartment for one in Paris for a weekIf a Parisian couple that want to vacation in New York read the advertisement, houses can be swapped, and both couples save hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars by avoiding big-city hotel feesIf all goes well, both couples can post positive reviews of the others home online so that potential travelers can see that everything was fine 18 This builds a community of people who want to help each other outThere are other advantages of house swapping as well19 Staying at someones home puts you in a neighborhood that can give you a better representation of the life and culture in the place youre visiting20 The next time you want to spend your vacation in a new place, but dont want to pay a fortune, check whats posted online and find a house to swapAHouse swapping is most common in New York and ParisBHotels are often quite difficult to book when you want to explore a new homeCA lot of times, this extra cost prevents travelers from going very far from homeDTo swap houses, people check the Internet for others planning to travel and trade homesEWith many house swapping sites growing, this new phenomenon is becoming easier than everFHotels are often located where few people live, making them a strange place to experience a cityGOn the other hand, if there were trouble, people could write about that to warn others not to trust the swappers第二部分 英语知识运用（共 两节，满分45 小题）第1节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题 1.5 分，共 30 分） 阅读下面短文， 掌握其大意，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上讲该项 涂黑。 “He looks normal.” Thats what everybody says when I tell them my son was just diagnosed as autism（孤独症）.
