BOne day，when I was working as a psychologist in England，an adolescent boy showed up in my office. It was David. He kept walking up and down restlessly，his face pale，and his hands shaking slightly. His head teacher had referred him to me.“This boy has lost his family，”he wrote.“He is understandably very sad and refuses to talk to others，and I’m very worried about him. Can you h elp？”I looked at David and showed him to a chair. How could I help him? There are problems psychology doesn’t have the answer to，and which no words can describe. Sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically.The first two times we met，David didn’t say a word. He sat there，only looking up to look at the children’s drawings on the wall behind me. I suggested we play a game of chess. He nodded. After that he played chess with me every Wednesday afternoon—in complete silenc e and without looking at me. It’s not easy to cheat in chess，but I admit I made sure David won once or twice.Usually，he arrived earlier than agreed，took the chess board and pieces from the shelf and began setting them up before I even got a chance to sit down. It seemed as if he enjoyed my company. But why did he never look at me?“Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with，”I thought.“Perhaps he senses that I respect his suffering.”Some months later，when we were playing chess，he looked up at me suddenly.“It’s your turn，”he said.After that day，David started talking. He got friends in school and joined a bicycle club. He wrote to me a few times，about his biking with some friends，and about his plan to get into university. Now he had really started tolive his own life.Maybe I gave David something. But I also learned that one—without any words—can reach out to another person. All it takes is a hug，a shoulder to cry on，a friendly touch，and an ear that listens.25. As a psychologist, the author .A. was sure of handling David's problemB. was skeptical about psychologyC. was able to describe David's problemD. was ready to listen to David26. David enjoyed being with the author because he________.A. bear the author many times in the chess gameB. need to share sorrow with the authorC. liked the children’s drawings in the officeD. wanted to ask the author for advice27. What can be inferred about David?A. He got friends in school before he met the author.B. He liked biking before he lost his family.C. He went into university soon after starting to talk.D. He recovered after months of treatment.28. What made David change?A. His teacher’s help.B. The author’s friendship.C. The author’s silent communication with himD. His exchange of letters with the author.CI got my first driver's license (执照) in 1953 by taking driver education in my first year at Central High School in Charlotte, North Carolina. Four years later when it was time to renew my license I was a married woman. Henry and I were living in Baltimore, Maryland. Two weeks before my 20th birthday, Henry drove me to the motor vehicle office on a hot July afternoon. When I got to the office and showed to the man behind the counter my North Carolina driver's license, ready to renew, the man told me that I was under age by Maryland law since I was not yet21. "Mr. Henry Smith, your husband, will have to sign for you." he said.I argued, pointing to a very large belly (肚子) of mine, "I am married. I am having a baby. Why should I have to have someone sign for me to drive?" He answered coldly, "It's the law, madam"Henry encouraged me to calm down, just go ahead and get the license and be done with it. "No," I said. I refused to have him sign for me. So I left without a Maryland license.I called the North Carolina Motor Vehicle Office and renewed my NC license by mail — using my name Susan Brown. And thus it was for the next twelve years. Since Henry was in the army I could drive under my home state license. By the time Henry left the army we were once again living in Maryland and I had to take the Maryland driver's exam. Since then I just go in and renew every four years -- sign the name Susan Brown, have my new picture taken, and walk out with a license to drive.29. Susan got her first driver's license _____.A.when she was twenty years oldB. before she got married to HenryC. after she finished high schoolD. when she just moved to Maryland30. Susan failed to renew her license the first time in Maryland because _____.A. she insisted on signing for herselfB. she lacked driving experience in MarylandC. she was to give birth to a baby soonD. she was forbidden to drive by Maryland law31. We can infer from the text that in the U.S. _____.A. American males should serve in the armyB. women should adopt their husbands' family names after marriageC. people have to renew their licenses in their home statesD.different states may have different lawsDA new online service offers a simple way to let other people know how to say your name correctly. It lets others hear you say it yourself in your e-mail.Today, more people from different cultures work, live and study together. Some worry that having a difficult name could limit them. Just ask Sheetal Dube. She and her husband came to the United States from India seven years ago. She said: "My name, Sheetal, is a very common Indian name and in India people would just know how to pronounce it. But I've been working here in the U.S. for some time and I realize people find it hard to pronounce. They haven't heard it before."Ms. Dube was a user experience consultant for technology companies. She now owns a new company called Audioname. She came up with the idea after doing a presentation with someone she worked with.SHEETAL DUBE:"My colleague was Mary and it was very easy for everyone in the room to say, you know, 'Mary's findings showed this.' But it's very difficult to say 'Sheetal's findings showed this.' So that's where this idea really stuck in my head. It's like, you know, what if I just have an audio name and, you know, I put it in my e-mail and they have a chance to hear it before they meet me?"Ms. Dube presented her idea at a business development conference in Portland, Oregon, earlier this year. It won the top award at the event called Startup Weekend Portland.SHEETAL DUBE: "I realized it was not only me who had a difficult to pronounce name, but a lot people actually had faced that awkward moment where they meet someone else and, you know, they don't know how to pronounce their name."The service is free. Ms. Dube hopes her idea will help make introductions a little easier.SHEETAL DUBE: "I went ahead created a basic Web application where people can go and, you know, record their name in their own voice. And that gives them a little audio file which sits in a Web address which they can actually go and put in their e-mail signature, in their Facebook, on their LinkedIn, on their website. So any place that they interact with other people, basically they can have this audio pronunciation next to their name."The Portland Seed Fund chose her idea as one of one hundred twenty-six startups to receive money and mentoring support from experts. Ms. Dube left her job to start . The site has been live since the middle of September.Marketing specialist Larry Chiagouris is the author of "The Secret to Getting a Job After College." He advises people with really difficult names to consider using a nickname in their job search. Sheetal Dube says she heard advice like that while researching her idea. She thinks a service like Audioname offers a better choice.32.For what purpose did Sheetal Dube create a basic Web application?A.To let people say their names correctly.B. To win the top award at the event.C. To help people communicate more easily.D. To record one’s name.33.What do we know from Sheetal Dube’s words in Paragraph 3?A.She didn’t get the idea for the online service until she owned a new company.B.She was not as good as her colleague MaryC.She liked to put an audio name in her e-mail.D.She found her name difficult for Americans to pronounce.34.Which of the following is true according to the text?A.Ms. Dube sensed she had a difficult name for Americans to pronounce when she arrived in America.B.People from different cultures have no concern while working living and studying together.C.The web application where people can go and record their names doesn’t charge them any money.D.People can have an audio pronunciation as long as they go to the web application.35.What’s Ms. Debu’s attitude towards Larry Chiagouri’s advice?A. FavorableB. UncaringC. DoubtfulD. Optimistic第三节七选五(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)Develop ‘Sales’ SkillsYou may not take a job as a salesperson after graduation. 36 That’s because no matter who you are or what you do, you actually make certain types of “sales” in daily life.For example, employees working for a company try to sell their talents so they can land promotion and move up to the corporate ladder.
