8.I was ten when I first sat with my grandmother behind the cashier(收銀臺)in her general store.(51)BI quickly learned the importance of treating customers politely and saying"thank you."
At first I was paid in candy.(52)AI worked every day after school,and during the summer and on weekends and holidays from 8 a.m.to 7 p.m.My father helped me set up a bank account(賬戶).(53)G   By the time I was 12,My grandmother thought I had done such a good job that the promoted (提升)me to selling cosmetics(化妝品).I developed the ability to look customers directly in the eye.Even though I was just a kid,women would ask me such things as"What color do you think I should wear?"I took a real interest in their questions and was able to translate what they wanted into m akeup(化妝)ideas.(54)CThe job taught me a valuable lesson:to be a successful salesperson,you didn't need to be a Rocket scientist-you needed to be a great listener.(55)DExpect they are NO longer women purchasing cosmetics from me; instead,they are kids who tell me which toys they would like to see designed and developed.

A.Later I received 50 cents an hour.
B.Before long,she let me sit there by myself.
C.I ended my selling a record amount of cosmetics.
D.Today I still carry that lesson with me:I listen to customers.
E.My grandma's trust taught me how to handle responsibility.
F.Soon I found myself looking more beautiful than ever before.
G.Watching my money grow was more rewarding than anything I could have bought.

分析 本文屬于說明文閱讀,作者通過這篇文章主要向我們描述了作者在祖母的幫助下從自己的工作中收獲的東西

解答 51.B.推理判斷題.根據(jù)下文的句子"I quickly learned the importance of treating customers politely and saying"thank you.""可知作者的祖母先讓作者跟著她學,然后讓作者獨立工作,所以他很快懂得有禮貌地對待客人的重要性.故選B.
52.A.推理判斷題.根據(jù)上文的句子"At first I was paid in candy."可知作者一開始的報酬是糖果,后來的報酬是每小時50美分.故選A.
53.G.推理判斷題.根據(jù)前一句的"My father helped me set up a bank account."可知作者看見自己的錢漸漸地多起來了,這要比作者買任何東西都值得.故選G.
54.C.推理判斷題.根據(jù)前一句的"I took a real interest in their questions and was able to translate what they wanted into makeup(化妝)ideas."可知作者很擅長銷售化妝品,因此這里是:我創(chuàng)造了我的化妝品銷售記錄.故選C.
55.D.推理判斷題.上文提到"The job taught me a valuable lesson:to be a successful salesperson,you didn't need to be a Rocket scientist-you needed to be a great listener."可知這里是:今天我仍然記住這個道理:要傾聽顧客需求.故選D.

點評 七選五閱讀是完成性閱讀,和完形填空很類似,不同的是一個選詞,一個選句子.解題時,要注意上下文語境,充分考慮信息詞(選項中和空格前后句子中相同或相近的詞),選出最符合語境的句子.

3.When I was 16 years old and in foster care (非親代養(yǎng))in Tennessee,people told me I was unadoptable.But I desperately wanted a family.I sought the help of a judge,even the commissioner of the Department of Children's Services,and was adopted just a week before my 18th birthday.
    We have a lot to be grateful for and this holiday season let's not forget about the more than 415,000 youth in foster care especially older youth.These youth are the most likely to get overlooked for adoption,but they shouldn't be.They need and deser ve a family just as much as young children do.Making an older youth a part of your family can bring just as much a joy as adopting a baby or a younger child-without all the diapers and potty training.
My adoption was life changing and probably the best thing that ever happened to me.I still remember the first gift my parents gave to me.It was a Mickey Mouse key chain with a key to their home.They told me that no matter what happened they would always love me and I'd always have a place to come home to.This is our 17th Thanksgiving together…
    My first Thanksgiving with my family was a little overwhelming with lots of extended family including grandparents,aunts,uncles,and cousins.However,it's when I realized that I would never have to spend another holiday alone and that was truly an amazing feeling.
    I was always eager to spend time with my little sister,Beth.She was six when I joined the family.My dad always says he knew we were really sisters,and I was no longer a guest in the house when Beth and I had our first fight.Today,she's one of my best friends,and I'm her b iggest cheerleader.
    There were also bittersweet Thanksgivings.One we spent in my mom's hospital room.It was there that she helped me plan my wedding but passed away three weeks before the ceremony.My dad walked me down the aisle,and my sister was my maid of honor.Because of our bond,we were able to support each other through that challenging time and that's what family is for-the good and bad times.
    It's nice having my dad and sister to share holidays and special occasions.But they're even more important when it comes to the little things-like having someone to share my bad day with,celebrate my promotion at work,or help me think through a difficult decision.It's in these moments that I just can't imagine being alone in the world.
    I'm so glad that I didn't listen to those people who said I was unadoptable,I'd never find a family,and that I was putting myself out there for rejection.It's a risk for older foster youth to consider adoption.It's an opportunity to be rejected once again. But it's a risk they should take because life doesn't end at 18.It's really just beginning.
    If you know someone who might consider adopting an older teen,please share my story--and have him or her think of my family.They didn't get to see my first steps or watch me be a pilgrim in my second grade Thanksgiving play.But they taught me so many things about life,and were there to watch me walk across the stage when I graduated from college and law school and accompanied me to the White House last year as I was honored for my work helping foster youth.
    I look forward to many more Thanksgivings with my family,and I'm eternally thankful they chose me to be a part of their family.
