To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers

11、 and magazines: a never-ending flood of words. In 21 a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend 22 can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are 23 readers. Most of us develop poor reading 24 at an early age, and never get ove

Taken individually, words have little meaning until they are strung together into phrases, sentences and paragraphs. 26 , however, the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously reads one word at a time,

13、 often regressing （退回） to 27 words or passages. Regression, the tendency to look back over what you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading. Another habit which 28 down the speed of reading is vocalization sounding each word either orally or mentally as one reads.To overcome these bad habit

Reading Comprehension (60 points with each of 3 points) Directions: There are four p

19、assages in this part. Ach passage is followed by five questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer. Passage 1A child who has once been pleased with a tale likes, as a rule, to have it retold in almost the same words, but this should not l

20、ead parents to treat printed fairy stories as formal texts. It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and, if a parent can produce what, in the actual situation of the time and the child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better. A charge made against fair

21、y tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or making him sad thinking. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often sorry for cruelty than those who had not. As to fears, there are, I think, some cases of

22、 children being dangerously terrified by some fairy story. Often, however, this arises(浮現(xiàn)) from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear faced and mastered.There are also people who object to fairy stories on t

23、he grounds that they are not objectively true, that giants, witches, two-headed dragons, magic carpets, etc. do not exist; and that, instead of being fond of the strange side in fairy tales, the child should be taught to learn the reality by studying history. I find such people, I must say so peculi

24、ar(奇怪旳) that I do not know how to argue with them. If their case were sound, the world should be full of mad men attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a stick or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their beloved girl-friend.No fairy story ever declared to be a des

25、cription of the real world and no clever child has ever believed that it was.36. The author considers that a fairy story is more effective when it is _.A. repeated without any change B. treated as a jokeC. made some changes by the parent D. set in the present37. According to the passage, great fear

26、can take place in a child when the story is _.A. in a realistic setting B. heard for the first timeC. repeated too often D. told in a different way38. The advantage claimed(提出) for repeating fairy stories to young children is that it _.A. makes them less fearfulB. develops their power of memoryC. ma

27、kes them believe there is nothing to be afraid ofD. encourages them not to have strange beliefs39. The authors mention of sticks and telephones is meant to suggest that _.A. fairy stories are still being made upB. there is some misunderstanding about fairy talesC. people try to modernize old fairy s

28、toriesD. there is more concern for children's fears nowadays40. One of the reasons why some people are not in favor of fairy tales is that _.A. they are full of imaginationB. they just make up the stories which are far from the truthC. they are not interestingD. they make teachers of history dif

29、ficult to teach Passage 2There are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy and the other becomes unhappy. This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, events and the resulting

30、effects upon their minds.People who are to be happy fix their attention on the convenience of things: the pleasant parts of conversation, the well prepared dishes, the goodness of the wine and the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of t

31、he opposite things. Therefore, they are continually dissatisfied. By their remarks, they sour the pleasure of society, offend (hurt) many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. If this turn of mind was founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied. The intentio

32、n of criticizing (批評(píng)) and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation (模仿). It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to

33、 them, and help them change this habit. Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious results in life since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. Those people offend many others; nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respe

34、ct. This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments. If they aim at getting some advantages in social position or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone start a step or speak a word to favor their hopes. If they bring on themselves public objections, no one will d

35、efend or excuse them, and many will join to criticize their wrongdoings. These should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing, without worrying needlessly about themselves and others. If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact (接觸) with them. Otherwise, it can

36、 be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels. 41. People who are unhappy _.A. always consider things differently from othersB. usually are affected by the results of certain things C. usually misunderstand what others think or sayD. always

37、discover the unpleasant side of certain things42. The phrase “sour the pleasure of society” most nearly means “_”.A. have a good taste with social life B. make others unhappyC. tend so scold others openly D. enjoy the pleasure of life43. We can conclude from the passage that _.A. we should pity all

38、such unhappy people B. such unhappy people are dangerous to social lifeC. people can get rid of the habit of unhappinessD. unhappy people cannot understand happy persons44. If such unhappy persons insist on keeping the habit, the author suggests that people should _.A. prevent any communication with

39、 them B. show no respect and politeness to themC. persuade them to recognize the bad effectsD. quarrel with them until they realize the mistakes45. In this passage, the writer mainly _. A. describes two types of peopleB. laughs at the unhappy peopleC. suggests the unhappy people should get rid of th

40、e habits of unhappinessD. tells people how to be happy in life Passage 3Five years ago, David Smith wore an expensive suit to work every day. “I was a clothes addict,” he jokes. “I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled.” Today David wears casual clot

41、hes-khaki pants and sports shirt-to the office. He hardly ever wears a necktie. “Im working harder than ever,” David says, “and I need to feel comfortable.” More and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work in the United States. The change from formal to casual

42、 office wear has been gradual. In the early 1990s, many companies allowed their employees to wear casual clothes on Friday(but only on Friday). This became known as “dress-down Friday” of “casual Friday”. “What started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for employees has really become an everyda

43、y thing.” said business consultant Maisly Jones.Why have so many companies started allowing their employees to wear casual clothes? One reason is that its easier for a company to attract new employees if it has a casual dress code. “A lot of young people dont want to dress up for work,” says the own

44、er of a software company, “so its hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code.” Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothes. In a study conducted by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers said that they believe tha

45、t casual dress improves employee morale. Only 4 percent of employers said that casual dress has a negative impact on productivity. Supporters of casual office wear also argue that a casual dress code helps them save money. “Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day,” one person said. “F

46、or the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes.” 46. David Smith refers to himself as having been “a clothes addict,” because _.A. he often wore khaki pants and a sports shirtB. he couldnt stand a clean appearanceC. he wanted his clothes to look neat all the timeD. he didnt want

47、to spend much money on clothes47. David Smith wears casual clothes now, because _.A. they make him feel at ease when working B. he cannot afford to buy expensive clothesC. he looks handsome in casual clothes D. he no longer works for any company48. According to this passage, which of the following s

48、tatements is false? A. Many employees dont like a conservative dress code. B. Comfortable clothes make employees more productive. C. A casual clothes code is welcomed by young employees. D. All the employers in the U. S. are for casual office wear.49. According to this passage, which of the followin

49、g statements is true? A. Company workers started to dress down about twenty years ago. B. Dress-down has become an everyday phenomenon since the early 1990s. C. “Dress-down Friday” was first given as a favor from employers. D. Many workers want to wear casual clothes to impress people.50. In this pa

50、ssage, the following advantages of casual office wear are mentioned in the passage except _.A. saving employees money B. making employees more attractive C. improving employees motivation D. making employees happier Passage 4 Kids will often ignore your requests for them to shut off the TV, start th

51、eir chores (雜事),or do their homework as a way to avoid following your directions. Before you know it, youve started to sound like a broken record as you repeatedly ask them to do their assignments, clean their room, or take out the trash. Rather than saying “Do your chores now.” youll be more effect

52、ive if you set a target time for when the chores have to be completed. So instead of arguing about starting chores, just say, “If chores arent done by 4 pm, here are the consequences.” Then its up to your child to complete the chores. Put the ball back in their court. Dont argue or fight with them,

53、just say, “Thats the way its going to be.” It shouldnt be punitive (懲罰性旳)as much as it should be persuasive. “If your chores arent done by 4 pm, then no video game times until chores are done. And if finishing those chores runs into homework time, thats going to be your loss.” On the other hand, whe

54、n dealing with homework, keep it very simple. Have a time when homework starts, and at that time, all electronics go off and do not go back on until you see that their homework is done. If your kids say they have no homework, then they should use that time to study or read. Either way, there should

55、be a time set aside when the electronics are off.When a kid wears his iPod or headphones when youre trying to talk to him, make no bones about it；he is not ignoring you, he is disrespecting you. At that point, everything else should stop until he takes the earplugs out of his ears. Dont try to communicate with him when hes wearing headphon
