My idea was to create a small business profiling (介绍;概述) site that would make it easy for people to find places to go when they needed or wanted a particular service or item. I thought I should keep the idea a secret until it had been completely developed so no one could steal it. However, I should have talked to businesses and their customers to see if they would use a service like this. At the rime, I thought this idea was brilliant. I outsourced (把…外包) the coding work, and spent $1000 of my own money, to build a product that was far from the one I expected. My money was wasted, and I had found out the hard way that my idea couldn‟t work.From this experience I learned a couple of things, one of which was that outsourcing work is a very risky move that should only be done with care and great attention. The other thing I learned was that sharing your idea with others is much more valuable than keeping it to yourself. By giving others an idea of what you aretrying to do, you will get valuable feedback as well as figure out whether or not your idea has legs.33.The purpose of the author in writing this passage is to _____.A) emphasize the importance of the urge to start a companyB) explain his idea about creating a business websiteC) share some lessons he learned in starting a businessD) give warnings to the readers against outsourcing34. The author decided to create a website because he believed it would _____.A) provide a convenient service B) lead people to small businessesC) be completely developed D) bring ideas to make his business grow35. The author started creating his business profiling site without _____.A) a unique service for customers B) an intension for investmentC) an investigation into the business D) outsourcing the coding work36. The author felt very much disappointed when _____.A) he talked to businesses and customersB) he finally finished his coding workC) he found his brilliant idea stolenD) he saw he finished product of the website37. If the author has another great idea to start a business, he would first _____.A) try harder to keep the idea a secret B) talk with people for their feedbackC) start it together with other people D) avoid investing with his own money Passage TwoQuestions 38 to 42 are based on the following passage.Beijing is asking its citizens for opinions about the proposed garbage classification rules that it intends to introduce to better manage trash. As the most effective way to reduce harmful gases emitted from trash-burners, classification is a step toward the goal of reducing the total amount of trash.So far, classification of trash has only been practiced in some communities on a trial basis and investigations show that most residents haven‟t developed the awareness or habit of sorting trash into different containers. Some residents ignore the different trash cans and throw bags of mixed waste into the nearest can.How to make residents cooperate in garbage sorting remains the sticking point. Grassroots government, such as district committees and neighborhood committees, must be well organized and take responsibility for helping the public understand why trash classification is important and how it is done.In addition, community workers need to play a much more active role. Community workers need to guide residents so they know what kind of trash to put in which can. They also need to find whether there are residents who disobey the rules and throw away mixed trash.It is perhaps not easy for some residents to develop the new habit of putting different trash into different bags, but they must change. The safe disposal of urban waste will never be realized without trash sorting by residents.That process is a must for the rules to work.38. As the government prepares to introduce rules for garbage classification, citizens of Beijing are asked to _____.A) throw out less garbage B) tell what they think about the rulesC) reduce trash burning D) improve management of trash39. At present, classification of garbage in Beijing _____.A) is regarded as impractical B) is unknown to the residentsC) has met objection from residents D) has begun in some places40. Investigations show that most residents dispose mixed waste without _____.A) habit of putting garbage into trash cans B) practice of using garbage bagsC) awareness of trash classification D) guidance to use different containers41. The word “grassroots” (line 1, paragraph 3) is closest in meaning to _____.A) “directly facing the residents”B) “in relation with grasslands”C) “in the countryside”D) “responsible for environment”42. The biggest challenge for the city to realize safe garbage disposal lies in _____.A) getting the public to cooperateB) reducing the emission of harmful gasesC) finding the residents who ignore the rulesD) organizing district and community committeesPassage ThreeQuestions 43 to 47 are based on the following passage.In the United States, the handshake has become an extremely ambiguous (含糊的) symbol. At one level, it just means “hello”or “goodbye.”But it can also be interpreted as “we‟re in agreement.”And on a still deeper level, it can mean “everything‟s OK between us,” particularly after some conflict has been settled. But sometimes social custom awkwardly calls for shaking hands to signify (表示) the end of a meeting, even though no agreement has been reached or a state of conflict still exists.Then, of course, business types will read all sorts of meaning into the very style of your handshake. Even if you execute it under exactly the right circumstances, it must be firm but not too firm; it must be held for exactly the right amount of time but no longer; it must be accompanied by direct eye contact; and, to be more sincere, you should add your left hand to make a “hand sandwich.” You may also be judged on the angle of your hand and the number and intensity of shakes.And if this kind of confusion isn‟t bad enough, that‟s just the standard, ordinary handshake. Gangs (黑帮团伙) sometimes use special handshakes to signify group membership, and use “secret handshakes” as a kind of password, a symbolic way of saying, “We‟re insiders.”So if someone outside the group incorrectly attempts a handshake, the results can be quite serious. On the other hand, a high five (arguably a variety of handshake) pretty unambiguously expresses satisfaction or congratulations --- but that‟s the exception.43. Which of the following best expresses the main idea of the passage?A) Handshaking is ambiguous because it causes confusion.B) Handshaking is an awkward practice of social custom.C) Handshaking signifies that an agreement has been reached.D) Handshaking may mean differently in different situations.44. In business handshakes, “a hand sandwich” is made when _____.A) you shake for a longer amount of timeB) you want to show you are very sincereC) you make eye contact and shake firmlyD) you use your left hand for shaking45. The number and intensity of shakes would be judged on business occasionsbecause _____.A)they show your personal preferenceB)they convey extra meanings in the handshakeC)they would possibly cause conflictsD)they signify your style of handshakes46. Gangs sometimes use special handshakes to _____.A) keep a gang secret among themselvesB) admit a new member into their groupC) show that they belong to the same groupD) pass a password to all the insiders47. A high five is usually used for _____.A) the end of an argument B) a password among gang membersC) satisfaction or congratulations D) an exceptional occasionPassage FourQuestions 48 to 52 are based on the following passage.According to a recent food survey by the European food Safety Authority (EFSA), most Europeans aren‟t overly concerned about …food scares,‟ or food-related risks.Around 27,000 consumers across the European Union were asked a range of questions relating to the possible risks associated with food and the level of confidence in public authorities on food safety-related issues.When it came to the response to the threat of food scares, UK respondents (应答人) were less worried about all of the perceived food-related risks than their European counterparts (相对应的人或物) but were most concerned about the welfare of farmed animals and the quality and freshness of food. Only 29 percent of UK respondents thought that food could possibly damage their health, as opposed to 48 percent in the rest of the respondents were also less likely to permanently change their eating habits after hearing that a type of food was unsafe from media stories (only seven percent as opposed to 11 percent in the rest of Europe).Asked how they respond to information on food-related matters communicated in the media or on the Internet, about half of the EU respondents said they ignored stories in the media or worried about them but did not change their eating habits.The findings provide an important resource for carrying out further research on the relation between trust in information sources, confidence in public authorities and perception (看法) of food-related risks。

1-5 B C A A A 6-10 D B D C C11-13 C A C 14-16 C C B 17-20 D C D CFor Americans, time is money. They say, “You only get so much time in this life: you’d better use it wisely.” The future will not be 21 better than the past or present, 22 unless people use their time for constructive activities. Thus, Americans 23 admire a “well-organized” person, one who has a written list of things to do and a 24 schedule for doing them. The ideal person is punctual and is considerate of other people’s time. They do not 25 waste people’s time with conversation or other activity that has no 26 visible beneficial outcome.The American attitude toward time is not necessarily 27 shared by others, especially non- Europeans. They are more likely to regard time as 28 something that simply there around them not something they can use. One of the more difficult things many students must adjust to in the States is the notion that time must be saved whenever possible and used wisely every day.In this context the fast food industry can be seen as 29 a clear example of American culture product McDonal d’s, KFC, and other fast food establishments are successful in a country where many people want to spend the least amount of time preparing and eating meals. As McDonald’s restaurants spread around the world, they have been viewed as 30 a symbol of American society and culture bringing not just hamburgers but an emphasis on speed, efficiency, and shiny cleanliness.Passage one31.
