【題目】閱讀理解七選五。根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。
Public Speaking Training
·Get a coach
， so get help. Since there are about a billion companies out there all ready to offer you public speaking training and courses, here are some things to look for when deciding the training that's right for you.
·Focus on positives
Any training you do to become more effective at public speaking should always focus on the positive aspects of what you already do well. Nothing can hurt confidence more than being told that you aren't doing well. , so good public speaking training should develop those instead of telling you what you shouldn't do.
· If you find a public speaking course that looks as though it's going to give you lots of dos and don'ts, walk away! Your brain is so full of what you're going to be talking about.
As far as we're concerned, there are basically no hard and fast rules about public speaking. Your audience can be your friends.
·You are a special person not a clone
Most importantly, good public speaking training should treat you as a special one, with your own personal habits. Your training course should help you bring out your personality, not try to turn you into someone you're not.
A. You aren't like anybody else
B. You already do lots of things well
C. Turn your back on too many rules
D. Check the rules about dos and don'ts
E. Whatever the presentation, public speaking is tough
F.The one thing you don't want is for them to fall asleep
G. So trying to force a whole set of rules into it will just make things worse

【答案】E；B；C；G；A
【解析】文章講述了進(jìn)行公共演講的訓(xùn)練要點(diǎn)。 你可以找到一個(gè)教練幫助你進(jìn)行公眾演講訓(xùn)練也可以參加公眾演講訓(xùn)練課，并且指出應(yīng)該找到適合自己的培訓(xùn)機(jī)構(gòu)。

（1）E根據(jù)下一句ready to offer you public speaking training and courses可知，開頭說(shuō)的是與public speaking 有關(guān)的問(wèn)題，故選E。

（2）B本題位于段中，通過(guò)上下文得出選項(xiàng)。后一句so good public speaking training should develop those與空格形成因果關(guān)系，所以空格中應(yīng)表達(dá)“你已經(jīng)做得很好了”的含義，所以B選項(xiàng)是正確答案。

（3）C本題位于段首，為整段的主旨大意。本段第一句中提到lots of dos and don'ts, walk away!可知，如果有的培訓(xùn)講太多的條條框框的話，要對(duì)條條框框說(shuō)不，所以C選項(xiàng)是正確答案。

（4）G從前句Your brain is so full of what you're going to be talking about, 可知后一空與前一空形成因果關(guān)系，腦子里裝滿了條條框框只會(huì)使情況變得更糟。故選G。

（5）A小標(biāo)題為You are a special person not a clone以及treat you as a special one, with your own personal habits可以得出答案You aren't like anybody else（與眾不同）。故答案選A。

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容的理解，選擇正確答案。 As Rosalie Warren stood at the mailbox in the lobby of her apartment building in May 1980, she shared the anxiety of many other college seniors. In her hand was an envelope containing her final grades. As she nervously opened it, Warren wondered whether her hundreds of hours of studying had paid off.
They had.
"I got five A's," she still recalls with elation. "I almost fell on the floor!"
Warren would graduate from Suffolk University with a Bachelor of Science degree in philosophy and history at age 80. Three years later, at age 83; she would receive her second degree from Suffolk, a master's in education.
Now, with both diplomas proudly displayed in her apartment, Warren is not finished with learning. Now 93, she continues for her 18th year at Suffolk under a program that allows persons 65 and over to attend classes tuition free. "It's my life to go to school, to enjoy being in an academic atmosphere," she says. "That's what I love."
Warren was born Rosalie Levey on Aug.29, 1900. Two years after she entered high school, her father died. Warren had to leave school for factory work to help support her family's 10 children. Warren describes herself as a "person who always liked school," and she says the move "broke my heart completely because I couldn't finish high school."
In the end, however, "I went to school nights," she recalls. "Any place I could find an outlet of learning and teaching, I was there."
A short time later, her mother became ill, and Warren had to care for her, once again putting her education on hold.
Finally, in 1921, her mother, now recovered, drew from her saving to send Warren to Boston University for two years to study typing, stenography, and office procedures.
Those courses helped Warren gain several long-term office positions over the next 60 years, but her great desire "to be in the academic field" continued.
In 1924, she married Eugene Warren, and seven years later, her daughter, Corinne, was born. In 1955, by then a widow and a grandmother, Warren took a bus tour across the United States that was to last nine months. She said she wanted to see "things you never see in the West End."
When she returned home, she took a bookkeeping position and also enrolled in courses in philosophy, sociology and Chinese history.
In 1975, when she was 75, Warren learned from a neighbor about Suffolk University's tuition-free program for senior citizens." I was at the registrar's office the very next day," she recalls. At first, she took one or two courses at a time, but encouraged by her professors, she enrolled as a degree candidate.
"I had not studied for so many years," she says, "but I was determined." For the next four years, Warren, who calls herself a "student of philosophy," worked toward her degree.
Nancy Stoll, dean of students at Suffolk, says Warren is "an interesting role model for our younger students—that learning is a lifetime activity...She is genuinely enthusiastic about being here, and that permeates (散發(fā)) her activities and is contagious (傳染的) to students and faculty."
（1）What does the word "elation" mean in the sentence "I got fives A's", she still recalls with elation"?
A.Great happiness.
B.Great surprise.
C.Great pride.
D.Great honor.
（2）Which statement can be inferred from the underlined sentences?
A.Because Warren needn't pay her tuition; she went to study at Suffolk University.
B.At first Warren had to pay for her courses at Suffolk University.
C.Most of the students at Suffolk University are older than 65.
D.Suffolk University encourages older people to take courses.
（3）It can be inferred from this passage that Rosalie Warren _______.
A.came from a wealthy family
B.didn't like working in an office
C.put her family before her education
D.didn't like her family very much
（4）What is the main topic of this passage?
A.Rosalie Warren's family
B.Rosalie Warren's life
C.Rosalie Warren's education
D.Rosalie Warren's studying at Suffolk University

【題目】故事續(xù)寫。 Twenty years ago, I drove a taxi for a living. One night I went to pick up a passenger at 2:30 a. m. When I arrived to collect, I found the building was dark except for a single light in a ground floor window.
I walked to the door and knocked, "Just a minute," answered a weak, elderly voice.
After a long time, the door opened. A small woman in her eighties stood before me. By her side was a small suitcase.
I took the suitcase to the car, and then returned to help the woman. She took my arm and we walked slowly towards the car.
She kept thanking me for my kindness. "It's nothing," I told her. "I just try to treat my passengers the way I would want my mother treated."
"Oh, you're such a good man." She said. When we got into the taxi, she gave me an address, and then asked, "Could you drive through downtown?"
"It's not the shortest way," I answered quickly.
"Oh, I'm in no hurry," she said. "I'm on my way to a hospice (臨終醫(yī)院). I don't have any family left. The doctor says I don't have very long."
I quietly reached over and shut off the meter (計(jì)價(jià)器). For the next two hours, we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked, the neighborhood where she had lived, and the furniture shop that had once been a ballroom where she had gone dancing as a girl.
Sometimes she'd ask me to slow down in front of a particular building and would sit staring into the darkness, saying nothing.
At dawn, she suddenly said, "I'm tired. Let's go now." We drove in silence according to the address she had given me.
"How much do I owe you?" she asked.
"Nothing." I said.
"You have to make a living," she answered. "Oh, there are other passengers," I answered. She said thanks to me, but she looked so sad.
注意：1.所續(xù)寫的短文詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；2.應(yīng)使用5個(gè)以上短文中標(biāo)有下劃線的關(guān)鍵詞語(yǔ)；3.續(xù)寫部分分為二段, 每段的開頭語(yǔ)已經(jīng)為你寫好；4.續(xù)寫完成后, 請(qǐng)用下劃線標(biāo)出你所使用的關(guān)鍵詞語(yǔ)。

【題目】Most students have had an experience of putting off things that must be done before a certain time. Here are some ways to help you reduce this age-old practice.

【1】

In order to achieve a particular result, you should constantly set and update goals. It can be beneficial to mark all deadlines in a planner and think about how much time you need to meet them all. What is more, make a daily schedule in order to reach necessary goals before going to bed.

【2】

Sometimes you may consider some work or class pointless and not useful to your further studies. However, when these thoughts arise, remind yourself what the final goal of your schooling is. Remind yourself why you wanted to go to school and take this program in the first place.

【3】

The most common things that take your attention away are those found on the Internet-social media sites, and videos. If you do not need the Internet to do your work, turn it off so that you are not receiving notices while completing your work.

Have something to look forward to.

Being productive for all hours of every day does not work, so plan time to go out with friends or do something relaxing. This way, while you are working, you can keep in mind that once you are finished your work you can go out and not worry about your assignments.

A. Reward yourself.

B. Turn off the Internet.

C. Set goals.

【題目】Cyclist Alain Such has been dropped from the Ingotel cycling team for two years after a positive drug test at the Institute of drug Free Sport. “ I was flabbergasted.” Said Didier Garcia, from Team Ingotel. “Alain joined our team last month and we had no idea that he was being examined.”

It’s a story that has become more and more familiar in recent years. Dr. Mohammad Farnood, a leading sports scientist from Cairo, Egypt, said, “ It is thought that some athletes will look for other ways to improve performance in addition to using drugs.”

However, it has not always been against the law. In the Olympics in 1904, Thomas Hicks won the marathon after using drugs in the middle of the race. In fact, the first one didn’t make him feel better for long, so he was given another and, as a result, he fell down soon after finishing and knew nothing. Another one may well have killed him.

Things are very different today. Some scientists are considering the possibilities of using genetic engineering to further develop athletes’ abilities. “If it works with no risk of discovering,” said Dr Farnood, “ then it’s likely to become common practice for athletes.”

Researchers are looking at the possibility of identifying “athletic” genes and correcting weak ones. Put into practice, this would make a person healthier and stronger. Once scientists understand what genes of top athletes look like , it might even become possible to identify “athletic” genes in young people, and then money could be spent on children who have the most promising genes.

“People are beginning to recognize that genetics can in many ways do good to our society, for example in saving lives and in creating better quality food for people.” Dr Farnood says. “ So, is it fair to use genetic engineering in sport? You could ask if it’s fair for some runners to use the latest scientifically developed footwear. The key question is whether it’s available to everyone.”

【1】What does the underlined word “ flabbergasted” in Paragraph 1 mean ?

A. Shy . B. Proud.

C. Excited. D. Surprised.

【2】What happened to Thomas Hicks in 1904 ?

A. He was badly hurt in training.

B. He broke the law when running in a race.

C. He took drugs and almost got killed.

D. He lost the match in the Olympic Games.

【3】Who may show the greatest concern about using genetic engineering in sport ?

A. Didier Garcia .

B. Thomas Hicks.

C. Cyclist Alain Such .

D. Dr Mohammad Farnood.

【4】What can we learn from Paragraph 5 and 6 ?

A. The possibility of identifying “athletic” genes has become available .

B. It’s not clear whether it is fair to use genetic engineering in sport.

C. The practice of using drugs in sport has a long history.

D. It’s dangerous to use drugs in sport.
