It’s 8:30, time for John to start work. So he turns on his radio. Then he eats breakfast. As he eats, he reads his e-mail and reviews his to-do list. Then he sits on the sofa and thinks about an article he needs to write ... Wait a minute! Radio? Breakfast? Sofa? What kind of workplace is this? Well, actually it is John’s house, and he is a telecommuter —  he works at home, communicating with the workplace through the Internet.

    Like John, millions of people — and their employers — are finding that telecommuting is a great way to work. Telecommuters can follow their own timetables. They work in the comfort of homes, where they can also look after young children or elderly parents. They save time and money by not traveling to work. Their employers save, too, because they need less office space and furniture. Studies show that telecommuters change jobs less often. This saves employers even more money. Telecommuting helps society, too, by reducing pollution and traffic problems.

    Jobs that are suited to telecommuting include writing, design work, computer programming and accounting. If a job is related to working with information, a telecommuter can probably do it.

1.From the passage we can learn that John does his job            .

A. by telephone     B. through the Internet

C. in his office      D. away from home

2.One of the advantages of telecommuting is that you can         .

A. work for several employers            B. enjoy a lot of traveling

C. get along well with other workers       D. work on your own schedule

3.Telecommuters change jobs less often, so          .

A. their employers can save money

B. their employers will give them a higher pay

C. they can get more work experience

D. they will have a longer paid holiday

4.The underlined phrase “suited to” in the third paragraph probably means “        ”.

A. acceptable for       B. bad for

C. difficult for      D. fit for

These days, many passers-by always spot a beggar on the Jiaochangkou Street in Yuzhong District of Chongqing in southwest China.

The beggar’s name is Xia Haibo, and he was born in Meihe Village, Tianmen City of Hubei Province. Being 25 years old, he is quite a special beggar in some ways — he doesn’t beg on his knees, as other beggars do when begging. Rather, he often stands in the crowded street, either reading a book or thinking about something carefully. He also started a blog on the Internet which has been clicked more than 500,000 times. He likes reading — he has read many classical Chinese poems. He has kept writing and recently, he has planned to publish his writings.

In 1998, Xia entered Tianmen Middle School as the best student in his town. However, a year before he took the college entrance examination, he came down with a high fever and was later diagnosed (診斷) as having rheumatoid arthritis (類風濕性關節(jié)炎). In order to treat his disease, his father borrowed 60,000 yuan from relatives and friends. However, with this money, he didn’t recover from the disease. He did not want to become a burden (負擔) to his family any more. So in July, 2006, he left his hometown and went to Wuhan to make a living by begging.

Begging has become a job to Xia now. However, he doesn’t plan to go on living like this. “By July 24, 2008, when I have been begging for two years, I will stop my begging life. I promise,” he said.

It is his plan that by using the money he “earns”, he will rent a small shop in his hometown and keep on writing in his spare time.

Right now, he is trying to finish a book of his own. The book, called Love Is With Me, tells about the people who helped him during his begging life.

1.The underlined word “spot” in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to “______”.

A.forgive           B.record            C.beat             D.notice

2.When did Xia Haibo get the serious illness?

A.In 1998.          B.In 2001.           C.In 2000.           D.In 2006.

3.How does Xia beg in the street?

A.He begs on his knees in the street.

B.He writes Chinese poems for those who like poems.

C.He reads or thinks while standing in the street.

D.He teaches people how to surf the Internet.

4. Which of the following is NOT true about Xia Haibo?

A.His dream is to have his book published.

B.He will not stop begging until he earns enough money for his future life.

C.He is writing a book to express his thanks to those who helped him.

D.He will keep writing while running a small business.

完形填空(共20小題;每小題1分,滿分20分)

    請認真閱讀下面短文,從短文后各題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中,選出最佳選項,并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。

Childhood curiosity(好奇) can last a lifetime and I learned this from my son, Bill. When he was very young, I often took him to the   36 . He loved to read and often needed to   37   the books he’d read in order to borrow more books. One unintended   38   of his nonstop reading habits was that he even   39   at the dinner table. His mother, Mary, and I did our best to   40   him that, on certain social   41 , reading while dining with others was not a good thing.

Every summer the teachers at his school   42   give the students a reading list, and there was a contest to see who could read the most books. He was so   43  , and he always wanted to win. And he often   44 . But the main reason why he read so obsessively (著迷地) was that he was so   45 . He didn’t just want to learn about   46   things. He wanted to learn about everything.

We helped   47   his curiosity in every way.   48   an unfamiliar word came up in conversation, we’d turn to the   49  , looking up the word, and reading the definition aloud. Thus my son came to realize that if you have a question, the   50   exists somewhere. All you have to do is   51   it.

Bill remains as much of a   52   today as when he was a child, and he seems to   53   everything he reads. He’s often   54   to share what he’s learned with the next person he meets. He   55   reads at the dinner table, though — which is a good thing because the books he’s attracted to now are increasingly unappetizing (引不起食欲的): The Eradication of Infectious Diseases, Mosquitoes, Malaria & Man, and Rats, Lice, and History.
