When she finally 16 , she had her eye on a teaching 17 at a nearby primary school. With the help of her friends, she had 18 with the Head.“I noticed a tiny 19 in one of my stockings earlier.”she recalled. “I thought about 20 them, but I knew I’d be 21 if I did. And by the time I got to the interview，it was bigger, I walked in apologizing for not looking my best.”The would-be te acher didn’t 22 the job. In fact her friends told her that the Head’s only comment was:“If someone doesn’t take the time to 23 her best image at an interview, what kind of 24 is she going to be?”In job-hunting, personal 25 is very important. After all, you’re selling a product—26 —to an employer. When going to a job interview, always brush your hair tidily, polish your shoes and above all, 27 yourself properly. It will give you a competitive 28 and a positive first 29 . The above idea was also suggested in a best-seller for jobseekers named Dress For Success.First impressions are 30 ones. In other words, if you’re viewed positively within the critical first four 31 , the person you’ve met wil l 32 feel everything you do is positive. Leave the interviewer a bad impression, and often he will guess you have a lot of other 33 characters. In a word, he may not take the time to give you a second 34 . Most employers believe that those who look as if they care about 35 will care about their jobs.16. A. determined B. graduated C. succeeded D. returned17.

Colombia is also fun, but they never eat dog meat. Trust me on this. This is also the place where I broke a statue with a coconut. This was done without thinking or a story in itself. For another thing, eating in Egypt was an adventure. Never again but once, so that I can say I did it and survived.I will never understand those Americans who visit another country and insist on eating only familiar American foods such as McDonald’s. Note the separation between their menu and actual food. This is intentional. It’s more fun to try new things, if only to say you did it and offer an educated opinion on them. What a regret it is to say I visited a country and ate nothing but hamburgers! And spent $500 on alcoholic drink in “the Gut” but didn’t visit any touristy sites.I always will feel sorry that I missed the port visit to Greece. I like Greek food and would love to try new things there, also to see the various historical sites like the Parthenon and such. I might even remember to take pictures. I once took a piece of advice from a chief. To wit: Think of what you will tell your grandchildren when they ask what it was like in such-and-such country. Will you have only drinking stories of how plastered you were? Or stories of how you saw this and that? Decide for yourself. After that I hung out with the older hands and saw a few wonderful things and avoided most of the drinking stories. Save Palma de Mall orca and Rota. I will never be drunk enough to repeat those stories again.36.

Why does the author think of visiting a foreign country?A. To try the food and enjoy the trip.B. To taste the different food.C. To visit local chiefs for their advice.D. To drink wine with low alcoholic.39. Which of the following statements is NOT true about the author?A. He wants to travel a lot.B. He wants to experience new things.C. He wants to follow the tradition.D. He wants to eat different food.40. Where is the author probably from?A. America.B. Italy.C. Greece.D. Colombia.BAmazing! Books I was assigned to read in school are now banned in many places. From the Bible(a book which has been banned in more places and at more times than any other) to Harry Potter, the debates spread quickly. It is interesting, however, to look at the criteria for censorship （书籍等的检查或其政策）and banning of books today. When reviewing a list of books banned in the schools over the past few years, these books seems to be listed for a few reasons.Mark Twain’s books, for instance, have been considered classics for years. Now, however, the use of the word “nigger(黑鬼)”in his stories has put his books on the banned list. Two best-loved books in particular, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, have been removed from many school libraries.Another well-loved writer of classics, Rudyard Kipling, is accused of being racist in hisbooks. Add Gone with the Wind by Margaret Mitchell to the list of books banned by racism. It’s no surprise, then Uncle Tom’s Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe are also on the banned list.What we used to consider great reading for children has not escaped. Black Beauty by Anna Sewell has too much cruelty to animals. Alice in Wonderland is too magical and foolish. The recent movie success, based on a book written by Christian writer C.S.Lewis—The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, is often banned at schools for violence, mysticism and blood.Oh well, you might say. A lot of these are “modern” books. The real classics stand the test of time—long time. Well, throw out Twelfth Night by Shakespeare, The Canterbury Tales by Chaucer and Homer’s Odyssey. These have to go for homosexuality references, vulgar language and violence.Overall, I view censorship as an abomination（令人憎恶的事）in modern society. It would be wrong to force a person to read a book, but denying one’s ability to read the book is also wrong. The banning of books must eventually be banned itself because of the limits it places on the ideas of people and morals of being free.41. How many books are mentioned in the passage?A. Ten.B.

Banned books in historyB. A banned book listC. Need they be banned?D. Classic books of no good45. What does the author think of the censorship?A. It’s reasonable.B. It’s cruel.C. It’s unwise.D. It is funny.CAgrico UK is a wholly owned subsidiary (子公司)of Agrico Holland, Europe’s leading potato producer and grower.

This can put them at the risk of developing medical problems in the future including diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and sleep apnea. Obesity (肥胖) can also adversely affect their self-esteem.Children normally need a certain number of calories (卡路里) each day that their bodies use as energy for normal daily activities. This ranges for boys from 2,000 calories for 7-10 years old, 2,500 calories for 11-14 years old to 3,000 calories for 15-18 years old. For girls the ranges are from 2,000 calories for 7-10 years old, to 2,200 calories for 11-18 years old. These are only estimates and some children need more or less of an energy allowance for daily activities.If a child consumes more food and calories than is required by their energy allowance, then those excess calories are converted (转换) to fat for storage. On the contrary, if a child consumes less food and calories than is required by their energy allowance, then their body fat is converted to energy for the needed calories.Most children should not be put on a severely limited diet(eating fewer calories each day). Weight management by a combined approach of a sensible diet and regular exercise will help to control their weight gain. Either way, body fat will be burned and converted to energy and you will lose weight.51. What is the main idea of the first paragraph?A. Most kids are intending to get overweight.B.
