I'm a member of a large company which has many sections. There are two men in important positions in my office --- Mr. Thompson and Mr. White. Everyone enjoys working with Mr. Thompson, but no one likes Mr. White.Mr. Thompson is always kind and patient. When he wants something done, he'll ask. "Would you mind getting this information for me, please?" Mr. White is just the opposite. He usually shouts across the room, "Get me the papers, and hurry up."But Mr. White surprised us this morning. At first we thought he must be sick. He was kind and polite. "Miss Erickson," he asked, " if it isn't too much trouble for you, could you please make these telephone calls for me?" June Erickson was too surprised to say a word. Right after that, Mr. White said, "Miss Reed, would you be so kind as to open the window? It's quite warm in here." Then he turned to me, "I'd appreciate very much if you'd mail these letters for me."We couldn't imagine why he was behaving so strangely. Should we give him some medicine? Or should we send him to the hospital?The situation was soon cleared up. "Ladies," Mr. Thompson said, "I've been told that the president (总裁) of our company will be here soon. He's very interested in the welfare (福利) of his employees (雇员) and will have some questions to ask you about that."60.The writer works in a ________ .A) bank B) company C) factory D) shopping centre61.

Text 29A.Happiness is important for everyone. Most people want to be happy but few know how to find happiness. Money and success don’t bring lasting happiness. Happiness depends on ourselves. In other words, we make our own happiness.Some people believe that if they are wealthy, they will be able to do anything they want, which means happiness. On the other hand, some people believe that holding a high position in the government is happiness. In this way, you have not only money, but also many other things which can’t be bought by money. However, other people believe that having lots of money is not happiness, nor is holding a high position in the government. These people value(重视) their beliefs, or their intelligence, or their health. They think these can make them happy.Here are a few ways to help you be happier.The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future, for example, getting into college or getting a good job that we d on’t enjoy the present. You should enjoy life’s simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have close friends usually enjoy happier and healthier lives.The second secret of happiness is to be active. Many people go dancing or play sports. People can forget about their problems and only think about the activities.Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. According to studies, people feel good when they volunteer their time to do many meaningful things for other people. If you want to feel happier, do something nice for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to get food for an old neighbor, or simply help around the house.Now maybe you know how to find happiness!( ) 74. Some people who hold a high position in the government think they can _________.A. get money and something they can’t buy with moneyB. do what they want to do at any timeC. enjoy health which makes them work hardD. take an active part in all kinds of activities every day( ) 75. According to the write, which( ) 76. The writer thinks the secret of happiness is that people __________.A. think about getting a good jobB. think of presents they don’t likeC. often spend time with close friendsD. often spend time on entering the college( ) 78. many people find it happy to _________A. remember the old days and troublesB. do some meaningful things for othersC. go shopping to buy some foodD. make much money and little success( ) 79. The passage mainly tells us __________.A how to find happinessB. how to save happinessC. to do something good for othersD. to value our beliefs or healthB.

Search and RescueBY Liz DaviesDo you have the dedication(奉献精神) to get up at 3 a.m.? Do you have the courage to climb mountains? Do you have a clear head to stay calm in an emergency(危急)? Would you know what to do if somebody broke their leg?Tamsen Bell, an eighteen-year-old girl from California in America, can answer yes to a ll those questions. She joined the Marine Search and Rescue Team when she was only 14 years ol d---the youngest age you can do this. She spent the hardest time in the team. She had to be trained for 60 hours to learn about first aid, climbing, map reading and rescue techniques(技术) before she began to help others. But she gained a lot from her teacher and teammates. The trai ning gave her the confidence to do the job. Now she is one of 20 youth volunteers(志愿者) in the rescue team whose motto(座右铭) is "Any time, any place, any weather.” They are often called out in the middle of the night to help people who have got into trouble in the wild countryside of California. So she usually had to stay up and got up early the next morning.When Tamsen was 16 years old, she helped to rescue an elderly woman who had fallen 50 feet down a steep cliff(悬崖峭壁). The woman broke her neck and couldn't move. What’s more, it was snowing heavily that afte rnoon. It was so cold that she had to cover the old lady with her own clothes. Tamsen had to work out what injuries the woman and how they could rescue her. She had to stay with the lady for 8 ho urs until the rescue team could lift her carefully back up the mountain to safety. The next day she had to lie in bed because of the bad cold.It's tough work, but Tamsen thinks it's worth it. She says "The best part of the job is the su pport and the friendships from different people." Everyone in the team wants to make people's live s better. We always can get a lot of pleasure and it makes the life more meaningful.93. Where does Tamsen Bell come from?94 . How long did the training last before Tamsen Bell began to help others?95. What happened to the old woman who fell 50 feet down a steep cliff?96. Tamsen Bell didn’t stay with the old woman, did she?97. What is the best part of the job in her opinion?98. How do you like Tamsen?。
