I was eight when I first sat with my grandmother behind the cashier in her store. 【1】 . I quickly learned the importance of treating customers politely and saying “Thank you.”

My grandmother treated me well. At first I was paid in candy. 2 .I 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. 3 .

By the time I was 12, My grandmother thought I had done such a good job that she promoted me to selling cosmetics(化妝品). 4 . 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 makeup ideas. I ended my selling with a record amount of cosmetics.

5 To be a successful salesperson, you didn’t need to be a Rocket scientist—you needed to be a great listener. Today I still carry this lesson with me: I listen to customers. I expect my customers are no longer women purchasing cosmetics from me; instead, they are kids who tell me which toys they would like to see.

A. Later I received 50 cents an hour.

B. The job taught me a valuable lesson

C. She let me sit there by myself before long

D. My grandma’s trust taught me how to handle responsibility

【答案】

【1】C

【2】A

【3】G

【4】E

【5】B

【解析】

試題分析:本文屬于記敘文,介紹了自己幫助奶奶在店里賣東西,學(xué)會(huì)了一個(gè)終身受用的教訓(xùn):學(xué)會(huì)傾聽。

【1】C根據(jù)前一句 I first sat with my grandmother behind the cashier(收銀臺(tái)),我之前和祖母一起收銀,說明我后來就自己坐在收銀臺(tái)了。后一句I quickly learned the importance of treating customers politely and saying “Thank you.”正是我收銀以后學(xué)會(huì)了使用“Thank you”,故C正確。

【2】A 根據(jù)橫線前兩句My grandmother treated me well. At first I was paid in candy. 說明奶奶給我的報(bào)酬在變化,最初的時(shí)候只給我糖果,橫線上敘述的應(yīng)該是后來發(fā)生的事情。故A項(xiàng)“Later I received 50 cents an hour.后來我的報(bào)酬是一小時(shí)50美分”與上下文一致。

【3】G 根據(jù)前一句My father helped me set up a bank account.父親給我設(shè)立了一個(gè)銀行賬戶,我把掙得錢存到賬戶里。看著自己掙得錢不斷增加是很高興的事情,要比我買到任何其他的東西更好。所以本句應(yīng)該與這個(gè)話題有關(guān)。故G項(xiàng)正確。

【4】E 根據(jù)橫線后一句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 makeup ideas說明雖然我很小,但是我能夠理解顧客的心理,知道他們需要什么。所以E項(xiàng)“I developed the ability to look customers directly in the eye”與這個(gè)話題相關(guān)。

【5】B 根據(jù)橫線后第二句Today I still carry this lesson with me: I listen to customers.直到今天我還記得這個(gè)教訓(xùn):多聽顧客講述。說明橫線上應(yīng)該在敘述自己從這份工作中所得到的東西。故B“The job taught me a valuable lesson”正確。

【題目】“The first and best of victories for a man is to conquer himself; to be conquered by himself is, of all things, the most shameful,” says Plato. Self-control is at the root of all the advantages. Let a man give in to his impulses (沖動(dòng)) and feelings, and from that moment he gives up his moral freedom.

A single angry word has lost many friends. When Socrates found in himself any temper or anger, he would check it by speaking low in order to control himself. If you are conscious of being angry, keep your mouth shut so that you can hold back rising anger. Many a person has dropped dead in great anger. Fits of anger bring fits of disease. “Whoever the gods would destroy, they first make them mad.” “Keep cool,” says Webster, “anger is not argument.” “Be calm in arguing,” says George Herbert, “for fierceness (狂怒) makes error a fault.”

To be angry with a weak man is to prove that you are not strong yourself. “Anger,” says Pythagoras, “begins with foolishness and ends with regret.” You must measure the strength of a man by the power of the feelings he conquers, not by the power of those which conquer him.

Self-control is man’s last and greatest victory.

If a man lacks self-control he seems to lack everything. Without it he can have no patience, no power to govern himself; he can have no self-confidence, for he will always be controlled by his strongest feeling. If he lacks self-control, the very backbone and nerve of character are lacking too.

【1What’s the main idea of the passage?

A. Self- control is important for a man.

B. We should learn to be strong.

C. A man who keeps cool won’t lose any game.

D. The great heroes in history knew how to control themselves.

2What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?

A. If you are mad, the gods will fail you.

B. If you lose your temper first, gods will fail you first.

C. If you can’t control yourself, you will be crazy.

D. If the gods want to fail you, they will make you mad first.

3Which of the following is NOT true, according to passage?

A. The first and best of victories for a man is to conquer himself.

B. You will make a small mistake serious if you don’t keep cool.

C. You must measure a man’s strength by the power of the feelings which conquer him.

D. Anger begins with foolishness and ends with regret.

4Which of the following can’t help you avoid anger, according to the passage?

A. Being calm in arguing.

B. Checking your temper or anger by speaking low.

C. Keeping your mouth shut.

D. Trying to make the other angry first.

【題目】The earliest newspapers started in ancient Rome. They were handwritten news sheets. The first printed newspapers appeared in China during the Tang dynasty, which were printed from carved wooden blocks. Modern papers first appeared in Venice, Italy in the middle of the 14th century. The newspapers of today, with advertising and a mixture of political, economic, and social news and comments, were started in Britain in the mid-18th century.

The main function of newspapers is to report news. Many newspapers also provide special information to readers, such as weather reports and television timetables. They also provide comments on politics, economics, arts and culture. Almost all newspapers depend on advertising to make money.

Nearly six out of ten adults in the United States and Canada read a newspaper every day. Seven out of ten read a paper each weekend. Readers search newspapers for detailed background information and analysis. This is what television and radio news reports seldom offer. Newspapers tell readers what happened, and they also help readers understand what caused an event and how it will affect the world around them.

The workers at large newspaper companies work under a lot of pressure to bring news to readers as soon as possible. Reporters, photographers, artists, and editors collect articles in just a few hours. Page designers select articles, photos, advertisements, and eye-catching headlines to make the pages, and then rush their work to the printer. Printing workers may work overnight around printing presses to churn out more than 60,000 copies per hour.

【1】Which is the best title for the passage?

A. Production of Newspapers

B. Functions of Newspapers

C. Publication of Newspapers

D. An Introduction to Newspapers

【2】We can infer everything from the passage EXCEPT that ________.

A. newspapers will become less popular because of the development of TV

B. few newspapers have no advertising

D. people can read about many different issues in newspapers

【3】The phrase "churn out" in the last paragraph probably means ________.

As is known to us, the year 2016 has one extra day in it February 29th. This is because it’s 【1】 we call “a leap year”. Every four years, the year has 366 days in 2 instead of 365.

It is called a leap year because hundreds of years ago in England, the extra day wasn’t 3 (legal) recognized. There is a well-known tradition in the UK 4 (associate) with February 29th, introduced many centuries ago. Women are allowed to break with tradition and propose(求婚) to their boyfriends on this day. This all started back in the 5 (five) century, when a famous Irish saint made a 6 (complain) that women had to wait too long for men to propose. According to the legend, Saint Patrick said any female dreaming of a proposal could ask her boyfriend to marry her on this additional day in February. This so-called tradition 7 (write) in law in the thirteenth century. Scotland passed a law allowing women to propose to men in a leap year. It was said that if the men refused, they had to pay a fine!

Now in 2016, there are calls 8 February 29th to become a public holiday. Some people believe that it should be an 9 (office) day off, because no one gets 【10 (many) payments for working an extra day in a leap year. For the moment though, the British still have to go to work on this day.

Dear Cathy,

I am writing to share my opinion on fashion with you, for I had just heard that you are disappointing because you can’t afford famous brands.

I shall say that it is naturally for people to care about his appearance. And it is true that fashionable thing like clothes and shoes will make one more eye-catching. Therefore, I think it is really a waste of money for you to buy famous brands. Besides, it will also add the burden of your parents.

What’s more, beauty is only skin-deep. There are many things in which can make you popular beside fashion. A great amount of knowledge and a warm heart will surely win others’ respect.

As the saying goes, never judge the person by his appearance. I do hope that you will remember the saying and be as happy as you used to be.

Yours,

Jane
