Professor Salovery, the psychologist who created the term, EQ, says that it is IQ that gets you hired but it is EQ that gets you promoted.Supported by his research, he suggested that when predicting future successes, a person’s brainpower, as measured by IQ tests, might actually matter less than a person’s character, or EQ. Professor Salovery may be correct. For example, have you ever wondered why some of the best and smartest students in your class end up failing exams? Perhaps it is because of their EQ. People often make the mistake of thinking that EQ is the opposite of IQ. It is not. Although it is hoped that people have both high EQs and IQs, there is little doubt that those with low EQs have a hard time surviving in life.For a long time, researchers discussed if a person’s IQ could be raised. The geneticists said no, while the social scientists said yes. Furthermore, the social scientists said that it was possible to improve a person’s EQ, particularly in terms of “people skills”, such as understanding and munication.Recently, a professor released the findings of a study on senior high school students. When some normal students were introduced to some disabled students, they found that afterwards they were more willing to help people in difficulties. At the same time, there was a marked change in the disabled students’ attitudes. They became more positive about their disabilities and were more eager to try new things. People with high EQs often have positive attitudes towards life and are open to different ideas, so they tend to be more creative in their thinking. Please remember that having a high IQ is helpful but having a high EQ might even be more helpful.26. According to Professor Salovery, what factor matters the most in predicting whether a person will be successful or not?A. How a person tests his / her brainpower.B. A person’s character.C. How smart a person is.D. A person’s IQ.27. The second paragraph tells us that .A. people who have a high IQ always have a high EQB. EQ is the opposite of IQC. people who have a low EQ tend to have a hard lifeD. people who have a high EQ always have a high IQ28. What did the professor find from his study of normal students being introduced to some disabled children?A. Students with disabilities were not open in trying new things.B. There was no change in the normal students.C. The disabled students became more positive and more eager to try new things.D. The disabled students were more willing to help others.29. Which of the following is the writer’s attitude toward EQ and IQ?A. IQ is more helpful to people than EQ.B. IQ can be raised by understanding and munication.C. EQ can get people hired.D. A high EQ is of great benefit in getting people promoted.30. Which of the following would be the best title of this passage?A. A person’s brainpower.B. IQ, EQ and success.C. IQ and a person’s character.D. A person’s IQ and EQ.三、七选五（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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

However, here in Germany, “I don’t mind” doesn’t seem to be an acceptable 2 . Neither does “I’ll do whatever you want to do” nor “Really, either way is fine by me”. It really is 3 yes or no.Despite having a huge smile on your face, most Germans will look at you 4 you’re unable to make a 5 , which of course isn’t true; we’re just bei ng really typically British. My first encounter (遭遇) of this was when I 6 the hotel for my first two nights in Germany. The 7 asked when I would like my breakfast in the morning. Being typically British, I replied saying whenever was 8 for her. She gave me a(n) 9 look and asked again.“No, when do you want to have 10 ? Er, OK ... err .... 8 am?” she smiled and I 11 quickly, “Only if that is12 for you though.”I knew about the British stereotype (模式化的形象) of 13 before I came abroad. However, I didn’t 14 how much truth there was to it untilI arrived here and began experiencing it on a day-to-day basis. 15 give you funny looks in restaurants if you say thank you repeatedly when they 16 all kinds of services. But that’s only right for the British. For everyone else, being so polite is totally 17.And when it es to me 18 questions, it’s even worse. “Would you be able to do that for me if it’s not too much trouble, please?” just doesn’t work here. You have to be 19 and say what you want. The first time I said “Pass that here”, my heart was 20 and I could almost hear my mum screaming in my head about manners.1.

But what can blind people do if they areallergic(过敏的) to dogs or just don't like them? For some people, the answer is provided by the Guide Horse Foundation.Janet and Don Burleson founded the organization in xx. They began training miniature horses to help guide blind people. Miniature horses look just like regular horses, only much smaller. They are generally less than 34 inches tall.Cuddles was the foundation's first guide horse in full service. She became 45-year-old Dan Shaw's helper. Shaw has an eye disease and his sight is very poor. One night, while filling out a form to get a guide dog, Shaw heard a news story on TV about people training horses to guide the blind. Shaw loves horses and wanted a guide animal that would live a long time. He applied, and a year later, Cuddles and Shaw began training as a team.On a trip to New York, Cuddles helped Shaw safely tour Times Square, a very busy part of the city at night. The next day, Cuddles calmly rode the elevator with Shaw to the crowded top of the Empire State Building, a famous tall building. Cuddles even guided Shaw on the boat ride to the Statue of Liberty, and traveled on the subway system.Shaw says that he is very lucky to have Cuddles. He believes that Cuddles has changed his life for the better by giving him the chance to do things himself and making him feel much more confident about himself.21.

New York City is a magical cityBThere was once a professor of medicine, who was very strict with the students. Whenever he took the chair on the exam mittee (担任考试委员会主席), the students would be in fear, because he was seldom pleased with the answers they gave. A student would be lucky enough if he or she could receive a good mark from him. At the end of the term, the students of medicine would take their exam again. Now a student entered the exam room and got seated before the mittee. This student was a little nervous as he knew it would not be so easy to get through the exam at all.The professor began to ask. The student was required to describe a certain illness, his description of which turned to (结果是) be OK.Then the professor asked about the cure(药剂) for illness, and the student, too, answered just as right."Good," said the professor, "and how much will you give the patient?""A full spoon," answered the student."Now you may go out and wait for what you can get," said the professor. At the same time, the mittee discussed carefully the answers the student had given. Suddenly the student noticed that there was something wrong with his last answer. "A full spoon is too much," he thought to himself. Anxiously he opened the door of the room and cried, "Mr. Professor, I've make a mistake!A full spoon is too much for a patient. He can take only five drops.""I'm sorry, sir." Said the professor coldly, "But it's too late. Your patient has died."26.

Talent increases and time decreases. Our life, in a way, is trading time with talents. Wasting time means our time decreases while our talents do not increase. 31 . Here are some tips on arranging your time reasonably.Get to know how you use your usual time and make improvements Take a week and write down what you do every 30 minutes every day and make i t into categories. After a week’s recording, you’ll see which part consumes most of the time. 32 And you could e up with a revised timetable for your next week.Use fragment(碎片) times and “dead times”By time recording, you’ll be amazed how much time you’ve wasted in waiting for the bus, queuing, walking, etc. You could really put that timeto better use. 33 Use your fragment times for insignificant matters so that you could have more time for things that really matter.34There’re always things to be done every day, and the thing we could do is to identify whether it’s urgent or important. The things you need to do for the day rest only on the urgent as well as important things. Don’t bee slaves to urgent but unimportant things.Use the 20%--80% principleAt the most efficient time, 20% of time could generate 80% of efficiency and on the contrary, at the least efficient time, 80% of the time could only generate 20% of efficiency. We should be doing important works at the most efficient time. That time period differs from person to person, 35 Yet, generally speaking, it’s round 10 in the morning and 3 in the afternoon.After being familiar with those tips, the next thing would be to implement and hold on to it. Do the right thing at the right time, and we shall make our time to its fullest.A. Finish as many tasks as possible.B. Make an analysis about the ways you could improve your efficiency.C. That is why we shall save every second and make it count.D. First things first.E. Like memorizing English words or making necessary phone calls.F. Depending on your mentality and physical condition.G. But everyone has a peak effect time.四、用所给词的适当形式填空36.He was ________ (forbid) to leave the house37.Dolly ‘s death,like her birth, ________ (bound) raise worries.38.Most students ________ (object) charging for parking.39.When will they finish the ________ (decorate) of the bathroom?40.

Rather, I read in order to get a point of view. I searched books for good expressions and sayings, pieces of information, idea, themes---anything to enrich my thought and make me feel educated. When one of my teachers suggested to his sleepy tenth-grade English class that a person could not have a “plicated idea”until he had read at least two thousand books, I heard the words without recognizing either its irony or its very plicated truth. I merely determined to make a list of all the books I had ever read. Strict with myself, I included only once a title I might have read several times.(How, after all, could one read a book more than once?) And I included only those books over a hundred pages in length. (Could anything shorter be a book?)There was yet another high school list I made. One day I came across a newspaper article about an English professor at a nearby state college. The article had a list of the “hundred most important books of Western Civilization”. “More than anything else in my life”. The professor told the reporter with finality, “these books have made me all that I am.” That was the kind of words I couldn’t ignore. I kept the list for the several months it took me to read all of the titles. Most books, of course, I hardly understood. While reading Plato’s The Republic, for example, I needed to keep looking atthe introduction of the book to remind myself what the text was about. However, with the special patience and superstition of a schoolboy, I looked at every word of the text.

What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear. We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental (done with the mind) exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. The children are then more likelyto grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to bee dull and unintelligent. Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” or “You are such a smart child.”6.

To create means to bring into being or to cause to exist–something each of us does daily .We are creative whenever we look at or think about something in a new way . First this involves an awareness of our surroundings . It means using all of our sense to bee aware of world . This may be as simple as being aware of color and appearance , as well as taste , when we plan a meal . Above all , it is the ability to notice things that others might miss .A second part of creativity is an ability to see relationships among things . If we believe the expression “There is nothing new under the sun”, the creativity is remaking or rebining the old in new ways. For example we might do this by finding a better way to study or to arrange our furniture , or we might make a new bination of camera lenses and filters(镜头和滤光器) 头create an unusual photograph .A third part of creativity is the courage and drive to make use of our new ideas , to apply them to achieve some new results . To think up a new concept is one thing ; to ____________________is another .These three parts of creativity are involved in all the great works of genius , but they are also involved in many of our day-to-day activities .1.What is the best title of the passage?
