Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) One day in l965, when I worked at View Ridge School in Seattle, a fourth-grade teacher approached me. She had a student who finished his work before all the others and needed a challenge. "Could he help in the library?" She asked. I said, "Send him along." Soon a slight, sandy-haired boy in jeans and a T-shift appeared. "Do you have a job for me?" he asked. I told him about the Dewey Decimal System for shelving books. He picked up the idea immediately. Then I showed him a stack of cards for long-overdue books that I was beginning to think had actually been returned but were misshelved with the wrong cards in them. He said, "Is it kind of a detective job?" I answered yes, and he became working. He had found three books with wrong cards by the time his teacher opened the door and announced, "Time for break!" He argued for finishing the finding job; She made the case for fresh air. She won. The next morning, he arrived early. "I want to finish these books," he said. At the end of the day, when he asked to be a librarian on a regular basis, it was easy to say yes. He worked untiringly. After a few weeks I found a note on my desk, inviting me to dinner at the boy's home. At the end of a pleasant evening, his mother announced that the family would be moving to neighbouring school district. Her son's first concern, she said, was leaving the View Ridge library. "Who will find the lost books?" he asked. When the time came, I said a reluctant good-bye. I missed him, but not for long. A few days later he came back and joyfully announced: "The librarian over there doesn't let boys work in the library. My mother got me transferred back to View Ridge. My dad will drop me off on his way to work. And if he can‘t, I'll walk!" I should have had an inkling(感觉) such focused determination would take that young man wherever he wanted to go. What I could not have guessed, however, was that he would become a wizard of the Information Age: Bill Gates, tycoon of Microsoft and America's richest man. 65. What was the author when the story happened? A. A teacher. B. A librarian. C. A detective. D. A professor. 66. What was the boy told to do on his first day in the library? A. To rearrange the books according to the new system. B. To put those overdue books back to the shelves. C. To find out the books with wrong cards in them. D. To put the cards back in the long-overdue books. 67. The boy got transferred back to View Ridge because _______. A. he did not like his life in the new school B. the transportation there was not convenient C. he missed his old schoolmates and teachers D. he was not allowed to work in the school library 68.

Miss Minchin, the school‘s greedy headmistress, wastes no time in putting the now-penniless Sara to work for her room and board.

Fifty years ago meetings were barely necessary – the boss decided what was going to happen and told employees in a brief office memo. Now everything in business is discussed extensively in large meetings attended by anybody who has the remotest interest in the subject. The gradual erosion of formal systems of authority has increased the appetite for face-to-face meetings. Consultation and discussion has taken the place of direct instruction. The amount of travel to get to these meetings is increasing. More than nine million people passed through Heathrow(希思罗机场) in 2005 on the way to internal company events. As a consequence, corporate travel is a growing part of UK carbon emissions(排放). It would be easy to say we must reverse the trend towards more meetings to reduce the climate-change impact of modern business. Unfortunately, it is not going to be easy. Some interesting recent research shows that most of the attendees at corporate meetings do complain about the waste of time involved. But when they were questioned in private, the picture changes. Only 15 per cent of people rated their most recent meeting adversely. Though most attendees saw room for improvement, meetings were valuable both in helping build plans for action and in making employees feel part of the organization. But do these meetings have to be face-to-face? British Telecom recently presented some data on the success of its internal voice conferencing. In the most recent year, more than two million telephone conferences took place in the company. BT estimates a saving of over ?200m from the use of this technology and a cut of almost 100,000 tonnes of CO2. Of course BT has a clear interest in telling us that phone meetings are a good substitute for wasteful corporate get-togethers. So far, such conferencing has struggled to take off as people have tended to prefer to travel. It is, after all, rather more difficult to understand the boss's body language over the phone. Nevertheless, BT's research on the considerable benefits of conferencing is reasonable. Rather than try to get rid of apparently unproductive meetings, we need to find ways to make telephone and video conferences ever better substitutes for those traditional meetings. 72. Why are there more and more meetings according to the passage? A. Because the formal systems of authority has been established. B. Because people prefer to solve problems through discussion. C. Because the organizations are getting more and more complex. D. Because modern transportation has been developing rapidly. 73. The word ― adversely‖ in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to ______. A. approvingly B. enthusiastically C. feasibly D. unfavourably 74. British Telecom presented the figures to prove that voice conferencing _______. A. stimulates the development of technology B. plays a vital role in large organizations C. may well replace conventional ones D. brings large profit to the company 75. What can we learn from the passage? A. Traditional face-to-face meetings bring more benefits than harm. B. Corporate travel contributes a lot to environmental problems. C. The idea of telephone conference is well accepted by employees. D. Meetings should be abandoned because they are a waste of time. Section C Directions: Read the following text and choose the most suitable question from A-F for each answer. There is one extra question which you do not need. A. Don‘t expect your notes to be perfect B. Make your notes neat and clean C. Set aside time to process your notes D. Separate out your notes E. Standardize your shorthand F. Keep your notes with your books When I‘m reading a book, I usually wind up taking quite a few notes. I keep track of ideas I want to follow up on, topics I want to read further about and even the occasional quote that seems just perfect for a project. Over the years, I‘ve found some tricks to make the process a lot smoother. 76. No matter what you‘re taking notes on, it should be easy to carry with your reading material. I prefer small notebooks that I can actually slide inside a book, but there are plenty of other options: * A notecard or other piece of paper that can double as a bookmark * Post-it notes * Writing directly in the book (unless the book does not belong to you) 77. In my experience, most notes can be divided between action items and details you want to retain. While reviewing your notes will come in handy when you‘re looking for a particular piece of information, it‘s not particularly useful to have to re-write your notes in order to sort out actions you need to take. Instead, it‘s more effective to clearly differentiate between the two from the start. The simplest approach is to just divide your notes in half: one side is for details and the other is for actions. 78. I can‘t even begin to count the amount of time I‘ve spent trying to translate some abbreviated notes that I scribbled down with the assumption that I would still know what ?A.‘ stood for a month later. If you‘re considering using an acronym or abbreviation that isn‘t in common use, it may be worth reconsidering. 79. I‘ve been showing my mother some tricks to promote her website, and we‘ve fallen into a pattern: as we talk, she writes everything out on note cards. Her notebook is filled with beautiful handwriting — but it‘s also a very time-consuming approach. If you can read your notes and understand them, it‘s okay to have somewhat messy notes. After all, you‘re probably the only one who will ever see them. 80. Writing down all the next steps you want to take from all your reading is great, but they won‘t ever get done unless you can get them out of your notes and in to whatever to do list or task management system you rely on. And if you plan to do anything with the detail-oriented notes you‘ve taken, it‘s important to get those into a format you can work with. If, for instance, you were writing up a blog post, I‘d suggest typing up all the quotes that you plan to use from the book in question before you even start writing the post. Section D Directions: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words. The case for college has been accepted without question for more than a generation. All high school graduates ought to go, because college will help them earn more money and learn to be more responsible citizens than those who don‘t go. But college has never been able to work its magic for everyone. And now that close to half our high school graduates are attending, those who don’t fit the pattern are becoming more and more, and more obvious. College graduates are selling shoes and driving taxis; college students get in the way of each other‘s experiments and write false letters of recommendation in the competition for admission to graduate school. Some observers say the fault is with the young people themselves—they are spoiled and they are expecting too much. But that is a condemnation(谴责)of the students as a whole, and does not explain all campus unhappiness. Others blame the state of the world, and they are partly right. We‘ve been told that young people have to go to college because our economy cannot take in an army of untrained eighteen-year-olds. But disappointed graduates are learning that it can no longer take in an army of trained twenty-two-year-olds, either. Some adventuresome educators and campus watchers have openly begun to suggest that college may not be the best, the proper, the only place for every young person after the completion of high school. Perhaps college education does not make people intelligent, ambitious, happy, liberal, or quick to learn things—maybe it is just the other way round, and intelligent, ambitious, happy, liberal, quick-learning people are only the ones who have been attracted to college in the first place. (Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TWELVE WORDS.) 81. People used to think that going to college could help them ______________. 82. What kind of people does "those who don't fit the pattern" in the 2nd paragraph probably refer to? 83. The author believes that the problems of college education partly arise from the fact that___________. 84. What can we learn about college education from the last paragraph? 第二卷 (45分) I.
