題目列表(包括答案和解析)
A teacher honored her students by telling them how they each had made a difference to her and the class. She also presented each of them with a blue ribbon(綢帶), which read, “Who I Am Makes a Difference.”
Afterwards the teacher decided to do a class project to see what recognition will do to people in general. She gave each student three more ribbons and instructed them to do the same to more people.
One of the boys went to a junior executive(經(jīng)理) in a nearby company and honored him for helping him with his career planning. Later that day the junior executive told his boss he deeply admired him for being a creative genius and asked if he would accept the gift of the blue ribbon. The surprised boss accepted the gift delightedly.
That night the boss came home to his 14-year-old son and told him about his day. “One of the junior executives gave me an extra ribbon and asked me to find somebody to honor,” he said. “I thought about you. My days are busy and when I come home I don’t pay much attention to you. Sometimes I scream at you for not getting good grades in school and for your bedroom being a mess, but somehow tonight, I just-wanted to sit here and well, just let you know that you do make a difference to me. You’re a great kid and I love you!”
The startled boy couldn’t help crying. His whole body shook. He looked up at his father and said through his tears, “I was planning on killing myself tomorrow, Dad, because I didn’t think you loved me. Now I don’t need to.”
53. The word “recognition” in the 2nd paragraph refers to ________.
A. openly rewarding people for their good deeds

Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.
Job interviews can generally be divided into three types.
The first is what I would call the traditional interview.This is usually just a series of standard questions about qualifications, work experience and expectations.So what you have here is basically a list of quite direct questions, like what duties did you have in your previous job.This is still the model for a lot of interviews today.In my view it's not the best to select staff.
Then there is the case interview.Here the interviewer presents a problem and a series of questions to find out how the candidate would approach the problem.It might go something like this, ‘A company wants to hire more graduates without spending more than its current budget.What would you advise them to do? ’This can be particularly challenging, for you need to analyze the problem and solve it.
The third type is known as the behavioral interview.The questions are usually designed to find out about how the candidates handle tricky situations in the past.A typical question might be ‘Can you give me an example of a situation where you had to follow orders that you didn't agree with? ’ This opens up a lot of information and the interviewer gets to see more of the candidate.
Questions:
14.What kind of questions are usually asked in the traditional interview?
15.What does the case interview focus on about the candidate?
16.What does the speaker mainly talk about?
14.A.Economic questions.
B.Routine questions.
C.Academic questions.
D.Challenging questions.
15.A.Work experience.
B.Educational qualifications.
C.Problem-solving abilities.
D.lnfomation-gathering abilities.
16.A.Features of different types of interview.
B.Skills in asking interview questions.
C.Changes in three interview models.
D.Suggestions for different job interviews.

Travel by Bike in the City
In this passage, the writer explains the advantages and disadvantages of owning private cars in the city. And he agrees to enlarge the private car market and make better use of them.
But I think bikes should be the most popular form of transportation in our city.
First, a bike is much cheaper than a car, most consumers can afford it, and if there is something wrong with a bike, people can have it fixed easily. Second, bikes need much less parking space than cars. The third reason is that it can save energy for our country. Moreover, it brings no pollution to the air, so it helps to clean the atmosphere.
Therefore, the best form of transportation is travelling by bike ,which is a healthy, “green” and economical way. But with the development of our economy, the day when we use cars as the most popular form of transportation is sure to come.

Pandas are one of the most precious animals in the world. They live
only in a small area in the mountains of South-western
There are only 500 ? 1,000 pandas in the wild and the number is falling down all the time. There are about 100 more in zoos and research stations.
Although they are protected, pandas are still killed for their skins. Because their skins are very valuable.
Pandas live in mountain forests, and can only eat bamboo. As the place they live in is getting smaller and smaller, pandas are in danger of dying from lack of suitable food.
Zoos are making efforts to raise and produce pandas, but this is very difficult. Also, baby pandas weigh only 100 grams at birth, so they need to be looked after very carefully. Since 1963 about 50 baby pandas have been born in zoos, and around half of them are still alive today.
