Passage Two
The other day I heard an American say to a Chinese student of English "You speak very good English." But the student answered, "No, no. My English is very poor." The foreigner was quite surprised at the answer. Thinking he had not made himself understood or the student had not heard him clearly, he said, "Yes indeed, you speak English very well." But the Chinese student still kept saying "No". In the end the foreigner gave up and was at a loss what to say. What's wrong with the student's answer? It is because he did not accept a compliment(赞美的话)as the English people do. He should have said "Thank you" instead of "No". He actually understood what the American had said. But he thought he should be modest. If he said "Thank you", that would mean he was too proud. According to the western culture, if someone says the dishes you have cooked are very delicious, you should say "Thank you". If someone says to a Woman "You look so beautiful with the new clothes on", she should be very happy and answer "Thank you". In our country we think being modest is a virtue and showing off a bad thing. But in the west, if you are modest and say "No, I'm afraid I can't do it well", then the others will take it for granted that you really cannot do it. If you often say "No", you will certainly be looked down upon by others. When asking for a job, if one says something like "Let me have a try on the job" instead of "Yes, I can certainly do it," he or she will never expect to get it. So in the west one should always be confident. Without self-confidence, he cannot go anywhere. Confidence is of great importance to one in a country where competition is quite keen.
40. Why was the American surprised at the Chinese student's answer?
A. Because he wondered whether the student could really speak good English.
B. Because he could hardly hear what the student had said.
C. Because he wouldn't like others to say "No".
D. Because the way to accept a compliment in China is not the same as that in the western countries.
正确答案：D此题为推论题。It is because he did not accept a compliment(赞美的话)as the English people do。通过此句知道中国人接受赞扬的方式与西方人的态度不同，并且可以推论出美国人为什么对中国学生的回答感到惊讶。

第3题：
When we talk about intelligence we do not mean the ability to get good scores on certain kinds of tests or even the ability to do well in school. By intelligence we mean a way of living and behaving, especially in a new situation. If we want to test intelligence, we need to find out how a person acts instead of how much he knows to do.
For example, when in a new situation, an intelligent person thinks about the situation, not about himself or what might happen to him. He tries to find out all he can do, and then he acts immediately and tries to do something about it. He probably isn’t sure how it all works out, but at least he tries. And if he cannot make things work out right, he doesn’t feel ashamed that he failed, he just tries to learn from his mistakes. An intelligent person, even if he is very young, has a special outlook in life, a special feeling about life, and a special way of how he fits into it.
If you look at children, you’ll see a great difference between what we call ”bright” children and “not bright” children. They are actually two different kinds of people, not just the same kind with different amounts of intelligence. For example, the bright child really wants to find out about life—he tries to get in touch with everything around him. But the unintelligent child keeps more to himself and his own dream world; he seems to have a wall between him and life in general
1、According to this passage, intelligence is the ability to______.
A、work by oneself do well in any
B、situation
C、know what is right and wrong
D、adapt oneself to a new situation
2、In a new situation, an intelligent person ____________.
A、knows more about what might happen to him
B、is well-prepared for his action
C、pays greater attention to the situation
D、completely ignores himself
3、If an intelligent person failed, he would ________
A、feel ashamed about the failure
B、learn from his experiences
C、find out what he can’t do
D、make sure what’s wrong with
his outlook in life
4、An intelligent child ________
A、learns more about himself
B、shows interest in things around him
C、studies everything that may be interesting
D、looks down upon unintelligent children
5、Why does an unintelligent child seem to have a wall between him and life in general?
A、Because he can hardly see the outside world.
B、Because life is far away from him.
C、Because he knows nothing about life in general.
D、Because he has little interest in things around himself.

第5题：
A lot of us lose life’s tough battles by starting a frontal attack—when a touch of humor might well enable us to win.Consider the case of a young friend of mine，who hit a traffic jam on his way to work shortly after receiving an ultimatum about being late on the job.Although there was a good reason for Sam’s a being late—serious illness at home—he decided that this by-now-familiar excuse wouldn’t work any longer.His supervisor was probably already pacing up and down preparing a dismissal speech.
Yes，the boss was.Sam entered the office at 9：35.The place was as quiet as a locker room;everyone was hard at work.Sam’s supervisor came up to him.Suddenly，Sam forced a grin and stretched out his hand.“How do you do!” he said.“I’m Sam Maynard.I’m applying for a job，which，I understand，became available just 35 minutes ago.Does the early bird get the worm?”
The room exploded in laughter.The supervisor clamped off a smile and walked back to his office.Sam Maynard had saved his job—with the only tool that could win，a laugh.
Humor is a most effective，yet frequently neglected，means of handling the difficult situations in our lives.It can be used for patching up differences，apologizing，saying “no”，criticizing，getting the other fellow to do what you want without his losing face.For some jobs，it’s the only tool that can succeed.It is a way to discuss subjects so sensitive that serious dialog may start a quarrel.For example，many believe that comedians on television are doing more today for racial and religious tolerance than people in any other forum.
1、Why was Sam late for his job?
A、Because he was ill.
B、Because he got up late.
C、Because he was caught in a traffic jam.
D、He was busy applying for a new job.
2、The main idea of this passage is().
A、Sam Maynard saved his job with humor
B、humor is important in our lives
C、early bird gets the worm
D、humor can solve racial discriminations
3、The phrase “clamped off” in Paragraph 3 means().
A、tried to hold back
B、tried to set
C、charged
D、gave out
4、Which of the following statements can we infer from the passage?
A、Sam was supposed to come to his office at 8:30.
B、It wasn't the first time that Sam came late for his work.
C、Humor is the most effective way of solving problems.
D、All people lose life's battles for they are lacking in a sense of humor.

Mr. Russell said Richard had nothing to do with the agreement mentioned because ________.
A. Richard didn't want to pay money he owed Ms. Lewis
B. this may affect the trial
C. this may ruin Richard's reputation
D. he knew that was the fact
正确答案：C
文章讲述的是Ms. Lewis为获利受Mr. Scrushy之托写有利于他的文章，但之后Mr. Scrushy却没有付清答应的款项，因此Ms. Lewis将其公布于众。第一段提到Mr. Scrushy的发言人Mr. Russell否认这个事实，无非是怕承认后Mr. Scrushy的名声受到损害，这是最关键的，至于钱款并不是最关心的，因此C最符合逻辑。 -

One day he recognized an important film director driving into the parking lot and getting out of his car．Larry had recently heard that the man was ready to make a new picture.
Larry got into the car and prepared to drive it on into the lot and park it．Then he stopped,jumped out,and ran over to the director．"Excuse me,sir,but I think it's only fair to tell you that it's now or never if you want me in your next picture．A lot of big companies are after me."
Instead of pushing away the boy,the director got interested in Larry's words and stopped．"Yes?
Which companies?"he asked.
"Well,"replied the boy,"there's the telephone company,the gas company,and the electric company,to tell you only a few."
The director laughed,then wrote something on a card and handed it to the young man．"Come and see me tomorrow."
Larry got a small part in the director's next film．He was on his way!

A Pay Rise or Not?
“Unless I get a rise.I'11 have a talk with the boss, Henry Manley,”George Strong said to himself. George liked his job and he liked the town he lived in,but his wife kept telling him that his pay was not enough to meet the needs of the family.That was why he was thinking of taking a job in Birmingham,a nearby city about 50 miles away.He had been offered a job in a factory there,and the pay was far better.
George lived in Wyeford,a medium-sized town .He really liked the place and didn't like the idea of moving somewhere else,but if he took the job in Birmingham,he would have to move his family there.
Henry Manley was the manager of a small company manufacturing electric motors.The corn-pany was in deep trouble because,among other reasons,the Japanese were selling such things at very low prices. As a result,Manley had to cut his own prices and profits as well. Otherwise he would not get any orders at all .Even then,orders were still not coming in fast enough,so that there was no money for raises（加工资）for his workers. Somehow ,he had to struggle along and keep his best workers as well.He sighed.Just then the phone rang.
His secretary told him that George Strong wanted to see him as soon as possible.Manley sighed again.He could guess what it was about.George Strong was a very young engineer. The company had no future unless it could attract and keep men like him.Manley rubbed his forehead （前额）;his problems seemed endless.Henry Manley's company was in deep trouble.
A:.Right
B: Wrong
C: Not mentioned答案：A解析：题目说的是：Henry Manley早已负债累累。第三段说到公司困难重重，Manley不得不降低产品价格和减少利润。但文章只是说Manley利润减少，并没提到其负债。C正确：
题目说的是：在伯明翰提供给George Strong的工作报酬要好。第一段最后一句话是这么说的：那儿的一家工厂给他提供了一份工作，报酬要好得多。
题目说的是：George Strong接受在伯明翰的那份工作的话，他将不得不把他的家留在Wyeford。第二段是这么说的：……如果他接受在伯明翰的那份工作，他将不得不把他的家搬到那里。
题目说的是：Henry Manley的公司困难重重。第三段的第二句话是这么说的：“The company was in deep trouble because…”。
题目说的是：Henry Manley的公司获得的利润足以给工人增加工资。第三段的倒数第四句是这么说的：……没有钱给他的工人加工资。
题目说的是：Henry Manley压根儿不知道George Strong为什么要见他。最后一段的第三句是这么说的：他能猜到George Strong找他的原因。
题目说的是：George Strong是Henry Manley公司最好的工程师。最后一段是这么说的：George Strong是一个很年轻的工程师。公司除非把像他这样的人留住，否则是没有前途的。这些信息不足以推出“他是一个Henry Manley公司最好的工程师。” -

The famous director of a big and expensive movie planned to film a beautiful sunset over the ocean,so that the audience could see his hero and heroine(男女英雄)in front of it at the end of the film as they said goodbye to each other forever．He sent his camera crew(摄制组)out one evening to film the sunset for him．
The next morning he said to the men,“Have you provided me with that sunset ”
“No,sir,”the man answered．
The director was angry．“Why not ”he asked．
“Well,sir,”one of the men answered,“we’re on the east coast here,and the sun sets in the west．We can get you a sunrise over the sea,if necessary,but not a sunset．”
“But I want a sunset!”the director shouted．“Go to the airport,take the next flight to the west coast,and get one．”

The camera crew went out early the next morning and filmed a bright sunrise over the beach in the middle of a beautiful bay(海湾)．Then at nine o’clock they took it to the director．“Here it is,sir,”they said,and gave it to him．He was very pleased．
They all went into the studio．“All right,”the director explained,“now our hero and heroine are going to say goodbye．Run the film backwards so that we can see the‘sunset’behind them．”
The“sunset”began,but after a quarter of minute,the director suddenly put his face in his hands and shouted to the camera to stop．

第20题：
Like every language,American English is full of special expressions,phrases that come from the day-to-day life of the people and develop in their own way．Our expression today is“to face the music”．
When someone says,“well,I guess I’ll have to face the music,”it does not mean he’s planning to go to the concert．It is something far less pleasant,like being called in by your boss to explain why you did this and did that,and why you didn’t do this or that．Sour music indeed,but it has to be faced At sometime or another,every one of us has had to face the music,especially as children．We can all remember father’s angry voice,“I want to talk to you．”and only because we did not obey him．What an unpleasant business it was!
The phrase“to face the music”is familiar to every American,young and old,It is at least 100 years old
．And where did this expression come from?The first explanation comes from the American novelist,James Fenimore Looper．He said,in 1851,that the expression was first used by actors while waiting in the wings to go on the stage．When they got their cue to go on,they often said,“Well,it’s time to face the music．”And that was exactly what they did—facing the orchestra which was just below them．And an actor might be frightened or nervous as he moved on to the stage in front of an audience that might be friendly or perhaps?hostile,especially if he forgot his lines．But he had to go out．If he did not,there would be no play．So the expression“to face the music”come to mean“having to go through something,no matter how unpleasant the experience might be,because you knew you had no choice．”
Other explanations about the expression go back to the army．When the men faced an inspection by their leader,the soldiers would be worried about how well they looked
．Was their equipment clean,shinny enough to pass the inspection?Still the men had to go out and face the music of the band as well as the inspection．What else could they do?
Another army explanation is more closely related to the idea of facing the results and accepting the responsibility for something that should not have been done．As,for example when a man is forced out of the army because he did something terrible,he is dishonored
．The band does not play．Only the drums tap a sad,slow beat．The soldier is forced to leave,facing such music as it is and facing the back of his horse．
What’s the meaning of“to face the music?”A.To face something far less pleasan
B.To face the stag
C.To face the back of one’s hors
D.To face one’s leade答案：A解析：暂无解析 -

Too Late to Regret It
When I was a junior,I met a second-year student in my department. He wasn't tall or good-looking,but he was very nice,attractive and athletic.He had something that I admired very much .He was natural,warm,and sincere.
I disregarded（不顾）my parents' disapproval. We were very happy together. He picked me up from my dorm every morning,and after class we would sit alongside the stream that ran through campus , or sunbathe（晒太阳）on the lawn. At night he would walk me back to my dorm .He came from a poor family,but in order to make me happy,he borrowed money from his friend to buy presents and meals for me .Our fellow students looked up to him as a role model, and the girls envied（妒忌）me. He wasn't a local , but wanted to stay here after graduation. I thought we had a future together.
However,when I got a part-time job during the summer vacation,people began giving me a lot of pressure,saying that a pretty,intelligent girl like me should find a better guy to spend time with .This was also what my family thought.He spent the summer in his hometown,so I was all by myself. When he got back,I began finding faults with him.But his big heart and warmth soon drove all unpleasant thoughts away .However,I had no idea how badly I had hurt him and that things would get worse.
I had a good part-time job off campus that paid pretty well.With my good performance at school,I also got admission to graduate school at one of China's best universities.He,on the oth- er hand,did not do so well at school or at work .I had to worry about his living expenses,job and scores。
Almost all my colleagues and friends advised me to break up with him.Then we had a quarrel last June .He was in great pain,and my cold words and bad moods started turning him away.
Graduation time was drawing near. He said that he couldn't put up with me anymore,and he said he wanted to go back to his hometown.I was shocked and looked at him in despair. True love happens only once,but I found it out too late.Why did he leave her?
A: Because he could no longer bear her.
B: Because he hated her.
C: Because his parents needed taking care of.
D: Because he wasn't a local.答案：A解析：本题问“什么时候作者爱上了这个男孩？”文章第一段和第二段提到了作者爱上男孩的时间，即：大学三年级的时候。其他时间与事实不一致。
本题问“他做了什么使她高兴？”本题是细节题。文章第二段中提到“为了要使我快乐，他向他的朋友借钱为我买礼物并请我吃饭。”
本题问“谁建议她与他分手？”文章第五段第一句提到“几乎我所有的同事和朋友劝告我和他分手。”因此选项C“她的同事和朋友”符合题意。
本题问“为什么他离开了她？”文章最后一段提到“他说他无法忍受我，他说他想要回家乡。”显然这是原因所在。所以选项A“他再也无法忍受了”符合题意。
本题问“当得知他将离开她时，她……”。文章最后一段提到“我感到吃惊，我意识到真正的爱只发生一次，但我发现的已经太晚。”由此可见，作者汁这件事情的感觉是痛苦的。因此选项D“非常痛苦”符合题意。 -
