Besides learning knowledge, we also learn practical skills. We have a lot of skill-training classes outside our school. Some of my classmates work as shop assistants. Some go to the bakery to learn how to make cakes. Boys, they usually go to practice car-repairing. We can also go to the factory where the technicians teach us how to use modern machine.

"Some pigs were born last night.""I don't see why he needs an ax," continued Fern, who was only eight."Well," said her mother," one of the pigs is a runt.（发育不全的）. It's very small and weak, So your father has decided to do away with it.""Do away with it?" shrieked(尖叫) Fern. "You mean kill it? Just because it's smaller than the others?""Don't yell, Fern!"she said. "Your father is right. The pig would probably die anyway."Fern pushed a chair out of the way and ran outdoors. Soon she caught up with her father."Please don't kill it!" she cried. "It's unfair."Mr. Arable stopped walking."Fern," he said gently, "you will have to learn to control yourself.""Control myself?" yelled Fern. "This is a matter of life and death, and you talk about controlling myself." Tears ran down her cheeks and she took hold of the ax and tried to pull it out of her father's hand."Fern," said Mr. Arable, "I know more about raising a litter of pigs than you do. It makes trouble. Now run along!""But it's unfair," cried Fern. "The pig couldn't help being born small, could it? If I had been very small at birth, would you have killed me?"Mr. Arable smiled. "Certainly not," he said, looking down at his daughter with love. "But this is different.

A good friend can help you study. Y ou can have fun together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet fair weather friends. They will be with you as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. How do I know when I have found a good friend?I look for certain qualities (品质) of character, especially understanding, honesty and reliability (可靠).Above all else, I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead, he tries to learn from others. He puts himself in the other person's place, and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener.At the same time, however, a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults (过错) in others. He notices their good points. In short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me.Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on (信赖) a good friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time, I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor, he will do his best to help me. If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me.There is a fourth quality that makes a friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun. We should enjoy our lives, and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with. A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experience (经验) and learn from each other. A goodfriend has a good sense of humor (幽默), too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me.When I meet someone who is reliable, honest, and understanding, I know I've found a friend!根据文章内容，选择正确答案：76. Which of the following qualities the writer thinks is the most important in choosing a friend?A. understanding.B.honesty.C. reliability.D.a sense of humor.77. If you have fair weather friends, ______ .A. they will give you all that they have when you need helpB. you will be refused when you get into troubleC. you will become richD. you can be sure that you get real friends78. Good friends need to ______.A. always point out each other's mistakesB. be helped with moneyC. understand each other's feelingsD. have money or luck.79. This passage mainly discuss ______ .A. the qualities of a friendB. where to choose friendsC. how to get along with friendsD. the importance of having a friend80.What does the underlined phrase “in short” mean:?A 缺点B 优点C 简言之D 尤其重要的是。

You tu rned me into a prince! It’s a surprise all right, but I don’t want to be a prince! Change me back right now!”“Oh, dear,” Wanda said. “You shouted so loud that I forgot the way to change you back. But who wouldn’t rather be a prince?”“I wouldn’t!” cried Charley. “I want to be a frog!” He stuck out his tongue, missing a bug (虫子)flying by the end of his nose. “Look at that, Wanda! I was a good fly catcher. But now, this tongue is too short! Please change me back!”“I can’t, Charley. But you’ll learn to be happy as a prince.” She waved her wand, and suddenly a castle appeared. Out of the castle dozens of musicians were playing various instruments. “Charley! You’ll have servants, eat delicious foods, and you can sing and dance and snap fingers(弹响指).”“No!” Charley interrupted, “I don’t want all these! I want bugs!” Charley cried. “I don’t want to sing and dance! And why would I do something as silly as snapping my fingers?”“Snapping fingers!” cried out Wanda. “That’s what I forgot!” She snapped her fingers, cried “Upsi-doodle!” and the castle and musicians disappeared and the prince became a little green frog.”Charley looked at himself in the water. “ You did it, Wanda. Oh, happy day! I’m a frog.”“I must apologize, Charley,” Wanda said, “You are a happy frog. I should know this a moment ago.”56.

You have applied for a job and now you are getting ready for that important job interview and you are looking forward to making a good impression on your future (hopefully) boss.When you walk in the room the very first impression you make onthe interviewer can have a great influence on the rest of the interview. Itis important that you introduce yourself, shake hands, and are friendly.In a job interview, the first question is often a “breaking the ice” type ofquestion. Don’t be surprised if the interviewer asks you something like:“How are you today?” or “What do you think of the weather lately?”Answer the question without going into too much detail.Talking about qualifications (资历) is the most important part of any job interview. Your qualifications include your education and any special training you may have received in the past. Your qualifications also include your experience in any previous work. It is important to explain what experience you have in detail. Generally, employers want to know exactly what you did and how well you accomplished your tasks. This is not the time to be modest.Try to avoid some big mistakes in the job interview, such as leaving the mobile on and criticizing previous bosses. The worst thing is you yourself have no questions. Having no questions shows you are either not interested or not prepared. Remember that interviewers are more impressed with the questions you ask than the selling points you try to make.64. The passage is mainly about .A. the typical questions asked in job interviewsB. importance of interviewees’ qualifications in job interviewsC. some common mistakes found in job interviewsD. Dos and Don’ts in job interviews65.

Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a mistake found in job interviews?A. Leaving the mobile onB. Criticizing previous bosses.C. Having no questions.D. Arriving late.DSeptember 21, 2050----At a press conference today it was announced that the first tourist heading for Mars will be the 38-year-old US businessman Patrick Clifford. He will leave the earth in the launching window of June 2052 and set his foot on the surface of Mars in November, together with the other 6 astronauts assigned for the mission to further explore the planet.Patrick has now two years of training ahead of him to get ready for the trip. Not only will he spend five months in getting to Mars, but another 600 days there before he can go back home. Patrick was of course very excited, “ This has been my dream since I was four, and seeing the first man on Mars 20 years ago made me realize that it was possible.”To be able to pay the $ 1. 3 billion for his ticket for the trip Patrick sold his majority stake (股份) in the company his father had built. “I know that my father would have been proud of me if he had still been alive today, he knew what this means to me”, says Patrick. There is no risk though that you will find Patrick begging in your street corner when he comes back, but it is said that he was paid twice as much for his part of the company.So, how is he going to spend his 600 days on the red planet? “Well, since I don’t have a job when I get back after selling the company, I have plenty of time to come up with a new business idea”, he says and laughs. If he brings a shovel（铁锹）he can start building the first hotel there, but maybe he shouldn’t expect too many guests until someone can offer a cheaper ticket.68. How long will Patrick Clifford be away before he comes back?A. About five monthsB. About two yearsC. About 600 daysD. About 750 days69. The underlined part in Paragraph 3 means that .A. the trip will turn Patrick into a beggarB. Patrick will get much money from the tripC. we needn’t worry about Patrick’s economic conditionD. it’s likely that Patrick will be very poor after he comes back70. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Patrick is an optimistic manB. A total of six people will go to MarsC. Patrick’s father felt excited at the newsD. Patrick will spend all his money on the trip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。

ASaturday, March 24thWe have arrived in the hot, wet city of Bangkok. This is our first trip to Thailand （泰国）. All the different smells make us want to try the food. We are going to eat something special for dinner tonight. The hotel we are staying in is cheap, and very clean. We plan to stay here for a few days, visit some places in the city, and then travel to Chiang Mai in the North.Tuesday, March 27thBangkok is wonderful and surprising. The places are interesting. We visited the famous market which was on water, and saw a lot of fruits and vegetables. Everything is so colorful, and we have taken hundreds of photos already! Later today we will leave for Chiang Mai. We will take the train north, stay in Chiang Mai for two days, and then catch a bus to Chiang Rai.Friday, March 30thOur trip to Chiang Rai was long and boring. We visited a small village in the mountains. The village people here love the quiet life—no computers or phones. They are the kindest people I have ever met. They always smile and say “hello”. Kathy and I can only speak a few words of Thai, so smiling is the best way to show our kindness.I feel good here and hope to be able to come back next year.36. T he diaries above show the writer’s ______ days in Thailand.A. 7B. 3C. 15D.837. It seems that visitors _________ in Bangkok.A. often feel hungryB. can’t take any photosC. can have a good timeD. feel a little bored38. Which of the following is TRUE?A. Chiang Mai is a beautiful city in the south of Thailand.B. The writer is traveling alone in Thailand.C. The writer will take a bus to Chiang Mai.D. The writer left Chiang Mai for Chiang Rai by bus.39. The people in the village ________.A. are friendly to othersB. like to speak EnglishC. hope to live in the citiesD. live a very busy life40. What is the best title（标题）for the whole diary?A. My First TravelB. The Outside WorldC. Traveling in ThailandD. My Trip to Chiang MaiBDo you know of anyone who uses the truth to deceive(欺骗)? When someone tells you something that is true，but leaves out important information that should be included, he can give you a false picture．For example，someone might say, “I just won a hundred dollars on the lottery(彩票). It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and turned it in for one hundred dollars!”This guy's a winner，right? Maybe，maybe not．We then discover that he bought $ 200 worth of tickets，and only one was a winner．He’s really a big loser!He didn’t say anything that was false，but he left out important information on purpose．That’s called a half-truth．Half truths are not technically lies，but they are just as dishonest．Some politicians often use this trick．Let’s say that during Governor Smith’s last term，her state lost one million jobs and gained three million jobs．Then she seeks an other term．One of her opponents(对手)says，“During Governor Smith’s te rm，the state lost one million jobs!” That’s true．However，an honest statement would have been，“During Governor Smith's term，the state had a net gain of two million jobs．’’Advertisers will sometimes use half—truths．It’s against the law to make false statements so they try to mislead you with the truth．An advertisement might say，“Nine out of ten doctors advised their patients to take Yucky Pills to cure toothache．”It fails to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Company．This kind of deception happens too often．It’s a sad fact of life：Lies are lies，and sometimes the truth can 1ie as well．41. How much did the lottery winner lose?A．one hundred dollars．B．Two hundred dollars．C．Three hundred dollars．D．Four hundred dollars．42. We may infer that the author believes people should ________.A．buy lottery tickets if possible B．make use of half—truths C．be careful about what they are told D．not trust the Yucky Company 43. What do the underline words “net gain” in Paragraph 5 mean?A. final increaseB. big advantageC. large shareD. total saving44. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A．Using half truths is against the law．B．Technically，half truths are in fact lies．C．Yucky Pills is a very good medicine for toothache．D．Governor Smith did a good job during her last term．45. Which of the following best expresses the main idea of the passage?A．He’s really a big loser!B．Sometimes the truth can lie as well．C．Advertisers will sometimes use half truths．D．It’s against the law to make false statements．CAt first, the earth’s surface（表面）layer (层) was made up of huge blocks of hard, solid rocks. Then slowly, the rocks broke up into smaller and smaller pieces. Finallystones, pebbles (卵石) and grains of sand were formed. Many sorts of plants and animals lived and died on the surface of the earth. Their remains mixed up with the stones, pebbles and formed soil. The outmost layer of the earth is soil.There are many ways in which large pieces of rock break into smaller ones. Wind, water. heat and cold help to break up rocks. When winds blow grains of sand against a large rock for a long time, the softer layers of the rock are slowly worn away. These leave holes and cracks (裂缝) in the rock, which become bigger and finally the rock breaks up into smaller pieces.The moving water of streams and rivers also helps to break up rocks. As the water moves along, it carries with it small pieces of rock. These rub the larger ones. Thus, the larger rocks are worn down to smaller pieces.The heat of the sun is also helpful to breaking up rocks. When the sun shines, the rocks become very hot. If these rocks are suddenly cooled, they may crack. Ice also plays a part in making soil. Water in the carcks can turn into ice in cold weather. As this happens, it becomes bigger and the cracks become wider, and finally break into smaller pieces.46. According to the passage, soil____________ .A. forms very slowlyB. is a mixture of stones, pebbles and sandC. makes up the layers of the earthD. is becoming smaller and smaller47. How many factors are mentioned in helping break up rocks?A. Three.B. Four.C. Five.D. More than five.48. Which of the follwing speeds up（加速）the breaks of rocks most?A. Hot weather.B. Cold water.C. Sharp changes in temperature.D. More dead plants in the cracks.49. Which of the following is NOT true?A. The remains of many plants and animals formed soil.B. If a large rock never moves, it will never break up.C. Even if a large rock never moves, it will break up.D. Ice in the cracks helps to break up rocks.50. The best title for this passage should be____________ ?A. Soil From RocksB. Ways to Break up RocksC. Soil on the EarthD. Soil, Outmost Layer of the EarthDScientists in Mexico have just begun a new study of one of the world’s biggest pyramids—the Pyramid of the Sun, north of Mexico City. They’r e putting lots of small, high-tech machines under the pyramid to try to unlock some of its secrets. For thousands of years, people have tried to uncover the secrets of the pyramids.The people who built the pyramids made lots of secret doors and rooms to stop tomb raiders from finding the treasures inside. However, there always have been some smart thieves in history. Now, almost all of Egypt’s pyramids have been robbed, including the Great Pyramid of Khufu, which is the largest pyramid in the world. It is the only one of the ancient wonders of the world that is still standing.In 820 AD, an Arab king named Abdullah AI Manum got a group of workers to dig their way into the Great Pyramid and have a look. Inside the pyramid, they found three rooms—the Queen’s Chamber, the Grand Gallery and the King’s Chamber. But to their surprise, the men didn’t find treasures they wanted. The Queen’s and King’s Chambers were both empty! Where were the King’s mummy and his treasures? Had someone already taken them away? The h uge stone doors at the pyramid’s entrance were still closed when AI Manum’s men went inside. How had the thieves got in and out?Since then, many people have gone inside the Great Pyramid to have a look or to try to take things. But still, no other chambers or walkways have been found.In 2002, an American team made the most recent visit to the Great Pyramid. Scientists sent a robot into the pyramid, but they only found a mysterious locked stonedoor.51. We can learn from the passage that ________.A. scientists have already studied the Pyramid of the Sun for thousands of yearsB. all the pyramids have been broken into except the Pyramid of the SunC. the Pyramid of the Sun was built by the ancient ArabiansD. the Pyramid of the Sun is not in Egypt52. The first two paragraphs were written to show that ________.A. the Pyramid of the Sun is an unusual historical buildingB. ancient Egyptian kings and queens were cruelC. construction workers led a hard life in ancient EgyptD. the secrets of some pyramids remain to be uncovered53. What is the purpose of making some secret doors to the pyramids?A. To try to unlock some of their secrets.B. To stop robbers from finding the treasures inside.C. To make the dead kings come into power again.D. To make the pyramids mysterious.54. Which of the following is NOT true about the Great Pyramid of Khufu?A. It is the largest pyramid in the world.B. It is the only one of the ancient wonders of the world that exists.C. People think AI Manum took the king’s mummy and treasures away.D.

Sherrard had passion for carpentry (木工) and showed promise at a very young age. “I first got interested in woodmaking when I was in Grade 10,” he says. “I had taken wood shop before but it never became a hobby of mine until my school started to get hard wood into the shop classes.”“I realized how much fun woodworking was and took all the wood-shop classes I could and started spending time in the shop after school,” he says. “I got a summer job working with my uncle and used most of the money I made to buy woodworking tools and quickly turned my dad’s little shop into my own woodworking shop.” His skills and knowledge were sharpened and tested in the woodworking program.All this went a long way in preparing him for full-time employment and taught him what to expect when he started working.“The biggest challenge to secure a good job with my training and skill set would be to keep up with all the different products and new designs,” he says. “I have only been in the industry for a few years but even my boss, who has been doing this for many years, is still learning new things all the time.”Sherrard’s passion for his skill has brought him this far but his thirst for learning keeps pushing him further. He’s already planning to go back to school to study engineering.34. What can we know about WorldSkills Competition?A. It provides professional training.B. It is a top event for skilled youth.C. It is held in Germany every four years.D. It is a competition for skilled carpenters.35. How well did Dustin Sherrard do in the competition?A. He stood out.B. He lost confidence.C. He failed to get a medal.D. He got praised.36. What made Dustin Sherrard love woodworking?A. Fame.B. Confidence.C. Honour.D. Interest.37. What might Dustin Sherrard do next?A. Find a better job.B. Return to school to study.C. Work together with his uncle.D. Take part in more competitions.CStudents and Technology in the ClassroomI love my Blackberry —it’s my little connection to the larger world that can go anywhere with me. I also love my laptop computer, as it holds all of my writing and thought. Despite this love of technology, I know that there are times when I need to move away from these devices (设备) and truly communicate with others.On occasion, I teach a course called History Matters for a group of higher education managers. My goals for the class include a full discussion of historical themes and ideas. Because I want students to thoroughly study the material and exchange their ideas with each other in the classroom. I have a rule — no laptops, iPads, phones, etc. When students were told my rule in advance of the class, some of them were not happy.Most students assume that my reasons for this rule include unpleasant experiences in the past with students misusing technology. There’s a bit of truth to that. Some students assume that I am anti-technology. There’s no truth in that at all. I love technology and try to keep up with it so I can relate to my students.The real reason why I ask students to leave technology at the door is that I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversions and truly engage complex ideas. Interruptions by technology often break concentration and allow for too much dependence on outside information for ideas. I want students to dig deep within themselves for inspiration and ideas. I want them to push each other to think differently and to make connections between the course the material and the class discussion.I’ve been teaching my history class in this way for many years and the educations r eflect student satisfaction with the environment that I create. Students realize that with deep conversation and challenge, they learn at a level that helps them keep the course material beyond the classroom.I’m not saying that I won’t ever change my mind about technology use in my history class, but until I hear a really good reason for the change. I’m sticking to my plan. A few hours of technology-free dialogue is just too sweet to give up.38. Some of the students in the history class were unhappy with ______.A. the course materialB. others’ misuse of technologyC. discussion topicsD. the author’s class regulations39. The underlined word “engage” in Paragraph 4 probably means ______.A. exploreB. acceptC. changeD. reject40. According to the author, the use of technology in the classroom may ______.A. keep students from doing independent thinkingB. encourage students to have in-depth conversationsC. help students to better understand complex themesD. affect students’ concentra tion on course evaluation41. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that the author ______.A. is quite stubbornB. will give up teaching historyC. will change his teaching plan soonD. values technology-free dialogues in his classDWhen things go wrong and we’re to blame, we’re supposed to feel guilty. Right? Not necessarily. It turns out that when we do something that causes a negative outcome, we actually feel less responsible for our actions. And, we see the entire situation differently than we would have if things had turned out well.The “blame game” is nothing new. Behavior experts have long known that people push responsibility to others, or to outside factors, when things don’t work out. But new research from the Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience at University College London shows that this response is more than about wanting to escape blame —we actually don’t believe that what happened is our fault.To learn more about the blame game, researchers conducted a study. They asked 34 participants to press keys that randomly (随机地) produced three different noises. The noises were positive (amusement, laughter), negative (fear, disgust, or anger), or neutral.The volunteers were asked to estimate (估计) the time that it took between when they pushed the button and when they heard the sound. Volunteers felt there was a longer lag (延迟) time between their actions and the negative sounds than between their actions and the positive ones. In their minds, the negative outcomes were separate from their actions. Therefore, they were able to feel less responsible for them.The researchers say that when it comes to assigning blame, we can’t always trust our own judgment. “Just because you don’t feel responsible, doesn’t mean you’re actually not,” says study author Patrick Haggard.The findings suggest that perhaps more of us need to realize that unpleasant or negative situations may actually be our fault —even if we don’t see it that way. And taking more responsibility for our actions could lead to better relationships with others.42. If things turn out well, people tend to ______.A. owe the success to othersB. share the success with othersC. feel more related to their actionsD. enjoy much pleasure themselves43. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?A. Experts knew little about the “blame game”.B. Similar studies have been done before.C. The study now has found nothing new.D. Outside factors lead to our fault.44. In the study, volunteers were asked to ______.A. push special buttonsB. write down the exact timeC. produce different soundsD. tell apart unpleasant sounds45. What’s true of the volunteers?A. They always doubted their own judgment.B. They believed someone else pressed the wrong keys.C. They were not brave enough to take the responsibility.D. They thought the bad results had little to do with them.46. What do the experts advise us to do to get along well with others?A. Be friendly to others.B. Take more responsibility.C. Treat others equally.D. Show respect to others.EIn her new book, “The Smartest Kids in the World,” Amanda Ripley, an investigative journalist, tells the story of Tom, a high-school student from Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, who decides to spend his senior year in Wroclaw, Poland. Poland is a surprising educational success story: in the past decade, the country raised students’ test scores from significantly below average to well above it. Polish kids have now outscored American kids in math and science, even though Poland spends, on average, less than half as much per student as the United States does. One of the most striking differences between the high school Tom attended in Gettysburg and the one he ends up at in Wroclaw is that the latter has no football team, or, for that matter, teams of any kind.That American high schools spend more time and money on sports than on math is an old complaint. This is not a matter of how any given student who plays sports does in school, but of the culture and its priorities (优先考虑的事). This December, when the latest Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) results are announced, it’s safe to predict that American high-school students will once again display their limited skills in math and reading, outscored not just by students in Poland but also by students in places like South Korea, Belgium, the Netherlands, Finland, Singapore, and Japan. Meanwhile, they will have played some very exciting football games, which will have been breathlessly written up in their hometown papers.Why does this situation continue? Well, for one thing, kids like it. And for another, according to Ripley, parents seem to like the arrangement, too. She describes a tour she took of a school in Washington D.C., which costs thirty thousand dollars a year. The tour leader —a mother with three children in the school —was asked about the school’s flaws (瑕疵). When she said that the math program was weak, none of the parents taking the tour reacted. When she said that the football program was weak, the parents suddenly became concerned. “Really?” one of them asked worriedly, “What do you mean?”One of the ironies (讽刺) of the situation is that sports reveal what is possible. American kids’ performance on the field shows just how well they can do when expectations are high. It’s too bad that their test scores show the same thing.47. Tom decides to spend his senior year in Poland because _______.A. he intends to improve his scoresB. Polish kids are better at learningC. sports are not supported at schools in GettysburgD. there are striking differences between the two countries48. According to Paragraph 2, we know that _______.A. PISA plays a very important role in AmericaB. little time is spent on sports in Japanese schoolsC. American high schools complain about sports timeD. too much importance is placed on sports in America49. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph means _______.A. American students’ academic performance worries their parents a lotB. high expectations push up American students’ academic performanceC. low ex pectations result in American students’ poor PISA performanceD. lacking practice contributes to American students’ average performance50. The purpose of this text is to _______.A. compare Polish schools with those in AmericaB. call on American schools to learn from the Polish modelC. draw public attention to a weakness in American school traditionD. explain what is wrong with American schools and provide solutions第二节根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

中职英语期中模拟考试试题：阅读理解阅读理解（共20小题：每小题2分，满分40分）阅读下列短文，从每篇短文后所给各题的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AFrank Woolworth was born in Rodman, New York., in 1852. His family were very poor farmers, and there was never enough to eat. Frank decided he did not want to be farmer. He took a short business course, and went to work as a salesman in a large city.Woolworth realized he had a natural skill for showing goods to attract people’s interest, but he soon learned something more important. One day his boss told him to sell some odds and ends (小商品) for as much as he could get. Frank put all these things on one table with a sign which said FIVE CENTS EACH. People fought and pushed to buy the things and the table was soon cleared.Soon afterwards, Woolworth opened his own store, selling goods at five and ten cents. But he had another lesson to learn before he became successful. That is, if you want to make money by selling low-price goods, you have to buy them in large quantities directly form the factories. Once, for example, Woolworth went to Germany and placed an order for knives. The order was so large that the factory had to keep running 24 hours a day for a whole year. In this way, the price of the knives was cut down by half.By 1919, Woolworth had over 1000 stores in the US and Canada, andopened his first store in London. He made many millions and his name became famous throughout the world. He always run his business according to strict rules, of which the most important was: “ THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT.”56.

The price of the knives was cut down by half because ______________.A. the factory workers worked 24 hours a day.B. knives were ordered in large quantities directly from the factory.C. the knives were made in Germany, where labour (劳动力) was cheap.D. the knives were produced in one factory.59. _____________ make Woolworth a world-famous man.A.

I rode a bike to work and I got a lot of exercise at weekends. I used to play tennis a lot and go for long walks. In those days I didn’t earn very much. I had a job in an office. It wasn’t a very good job but I had a lot of time to do the things I enjoyed doing.Then, about eight years ago, I got a much better job. The pay was better, but the hours were a lot longer. I bought a car and drove to work every day. I began to take people out to lunch. And I began to put on weight, too. I stopped playing tennis and going for long walks at weekends because I just didn’t have any time for things like that any more.There’s a lot of stress in my job. Perhaps that’s why I started drinking more than I used to. For example, I used to have only half a glass of whisky when I got home, but then I started filling my glass to the top, and instead of having one glass, I would have several. I started smoking a lot, too. I never used to smoke at all.Two months ago I had a heart attack. At first I just couldn’t believe it. Luckily it wasn’t very serious. The doctor advised me to s top smoking and to eat less. He also advised me to work less and get more exercise. But I just haven’t any time! My job takes everything out of me!Sometimes I wonder if I should get another job. Perhaps I could do something like I used to do. But if I d o that, I won’t earn as much. I havea family to support. I have to think of them, too. I just don’t know what I should do. What do you think?61.The author used to go to work ________A. on footB. by bikeC. by carD. by train62.

The author feels much better now.CWhile income worry is a rather common problem of the aged, loneliness is another problem that aged parents may face. Of all the reasons that explain their loneliness, a large geographical distancebetween parents and their children is the major one. This phenomenon(现象) is commonly known as "Empty Nest Syndrome”（空巢综合症）．In order to find better chances outside their countries, many young people have gone abroad, leaving their parents behind with no clear idea of when they will return home. Their parents spend countless lonely days and nights, taking care of themselves, in the hope that someday their children will come back to stay with them. The fact that most of these young people have gone to Europeanized or Americanized societies makes it unlikely that they will hold as tightly to the value of duty as they would have if they had not left their countries. Whatever the case, it has been noted that the values they hold do not necessarily match what they actually do. This geographical and cultural distance also prevents the grown-up children from providing response in time for their aged parents living by themselves.The situation in which grown-up children live far away from their aged parents has been described as "distant parent phenomenon", which is common both in developed countries and in developing countries. Our society has not yet been well prepared for "Empty Nest Syndrome".66. According to the passage, the loneliness of aged parents is mainly caused by ________.A. their earlier experience of living aloneB. the poor living conditions in their native countriesC. the common worry that they have not saved much moneyD. the distance between where parents live and where their children live67. Many young people have gone abroad, leaving their aged parents behind, to ______.A. realize their dreams in foreign countriesB. seek a better place for their aged parentsC. live in the countries with more moneyD. continue their studies abroad68. If young people go abroad, __________.A. they do not hold to the value of duty at allB. they can give some help to their parents back homeC. they cannot do what they should for their parentsD. they believe what they actually do is right69. From the last paragraph, we can infer that __________.A. the situations in the developed and developing countries are differentB. "Empty Nest Syndrome" has arrived unexpectedly in our societyC. children will become independent as soon as they go abroadD. the aged parents are not fully prepared for "Empty Nest Syndrome"70. The society discussed in the passage is most probably __________.A. FranceB. AmericaC. ChinaD. BritainDEducation is not an end , but a means to an end. In other words, we do not educate children only for the purpose of educating them. Our purpose is to fit them for life.In many modern countries it has for some time been fashionable（流行的）to think that by free education for all whether rich or poor, clever or stupid --- one can solve all the problems of society and build a perfect nation. But we can already see that free education for all is not enough: we find in such countries a far larger number of people with university degrees（学位）they refuse to do what they think "low" work; and in fact, work with hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries. But we have only to think a moment to understand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is far more important than that of a professor: we can live without education, but we die if we have no food. If no one cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our houses, we should get terrible diseases in our towns…In fact, when we say that all of us must be educated to fit us for life, it means that we must be educated in such a way that, firstly, each of us can do whatever work suited to his brains and ability, and secondly, thatwe can realize that all jobs are necessary to society, and that it is very bad to be unwilling to do one's work. Only such a type of education can be considered valuable to society.71. In the writer’s opinion,_________A. free education for all probably leads to a perfect worldB. all the social problems can’t be solved by educationC. education can solve most of the world’s problemsD. free education will help to solve all the problems of society72. The writer wants to prove that _______A. a farmer is more important than a professorB. our society needs free education for allC. our society needs all kinds of jobsD. work with hands is the most important73. The purpose of education is to ________A. build a perfect worldB. let everyone receive educationC. choose officials for the countryD. prepare children mainly for their future work74. What is mainly discussed in the text?A. The type of educationB. The value of educationC. The means of educationD. The system of education75. What can we learn from the text?A. Work with hands is thought to be shameful in some modern countries.B. In all modern countries, free education has been fashionable.C. A perfect nation can solve all the problems of society.D. A professor is far more important than a farmer.56-60 CABAD 61-65 BDBCA 66-70 DACBC 71-75 BCDBA。
