10.I always do voluntary work in the hospital.As a patient visitor,my primary goal is to deliver quality services to patients and families.By providing companionship for patients in a sometimes lonely environment.I try my best to serve and help to  diminish  the loneliness and frustration patients may feel after staying in a hospital for a stretch of time for weeks or even months.
Every Saturday afternoon for three to four hours,with a list of patients who have requested a patient visitor service,I head up to the 5th,6th,or 7th floor to first visit my priority patients.At the nurse's station,I kindly ask the nurses or the medical staff about the condition of the patients on that unit and confirm that the patients would like a visitor.After receiving an update from the nurse,I gently knock on the door of the patients and enter with a friendly"hello".Then,I introduce myself and again politely ask if they would like a patient visitor.I usually try to prepare a few starting conversation topics such as the current news,sports scores and fun facts.However,the patients usually engage me first in an interesting conversation.
When volunteering as a patient visitor,I spent a lot of time communicating one-on-one with patients.Individual patients had individual needs and possessed extraordinary personal stories.Therefore,I found every visit fascinating.From generous and kind patients,I have learned about their diseases and their course of treatment.Additionally,I learned about literature,life during the Great Depression and wilderness of Northern Minnesota.On the whole,not only did I learn about the hospital settings and system,but I learned about the diverse life of others.
Many of the patients I have visited were truly inspiring and I always admire them for their strength.Although difficult,they were often willing to share their stories of pain,suffering,hopes and optimism.I realize that I am truly grateful and honored that they would share their personal stories with just a volunteer like me.

分析 本文是一篇記敘文.主要闡述作者在醫(yī)院里所做的志愿者工作和感悟.我經(jīng)常在醫(yī)院里做志愿者活動主要目的是給患者和家庭提供高質(zhì)量的服務(wù).通過為病人提供陪伴以減少病人的寂寞和沮喪.作者經(jīng)常準(zhǔn)備好話題與病人交流談心,在與病人交談的過程中,了解到醫(yī)院的體系和其他人的人生.作者對那些愿意與他分享人生故事的病患們非常感激.文章旨在告訴我們,做志愿者工作不僅自己能學(xué)到很多,而且對別人也有很多影響.

解答 56.Reduce.詞義猜測題.根據(jù)第一段中的"By providing companionship for patients in a sometimes lonely environment."可知,通過為病人提供陪伴以減少病人的寂寞和沮喪.故此題答案應(yīng)為"reduce".
57.The current news,sports scores and fun facts.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第二段"I usually try to prepare a few starting conversation topics such as the current news,sports scores and fun facts."可知,作者為病人準(zhǔn)備的話題是:"The current news,sports scores and fun facts.".
58.She learned the hospital settings and system and different life of others.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第三段"On the whole,not only did I learn about the hospital settings and system,but I learned about the diverse life of others."可知,作者在與病人交談的過程中,了解到醫(yī)院的體系和其他人的人生.故此題答案應(yīng)為:"She learned the hospital settings and system and different life of others.".

20.Pick up a pencil.Lift your foot.Raise your arm.These directions may sound simple,but many parts of your body must work together for you to make those movements.Your joints are parts of your body that help your bones move.With little effort,joints move bones in different directions.But some people's joints do not work well because of illness or injury.Their joints sometimes have to be replaced with artificial ones.
Joints look simple.You might think that scientists would have no trouble making artificial joints that work as well as real joints.After over a century of trying,scientists are just beginning to find ways of making artificial joints that work well.
What problems have to be solved in building an artificial joint?First,some joints have to be strong enough to support most of a person's weight.The first artificial hip-joint,built in 1891,failed because it could not hold up a person's weight.
Second,joints have to be flexible to allow movement in different directions.
Third,joints must be made of materials that the body will not reject.Usually,the body reacts to foreign substances by producing cells that attack and destroy the substances.To the body an artificial joint is a foreign substance that should be destroyed.
Scientists have finally found ways to solve these problems.Nowadays the artificial knee-joint is made of a special metal and plastic.The metal is a combination of silicon (硅) and stainless steel.The metal is strong,so it can support the weight of the body.The plastic is a flexible material.It allows the joint to move easily.Medicines have been discovered that will prevent the body from rejecting the artificial joint.People who have lost the use of a joint can get an artificial joint that works almost as well as the original one.

81.Which parts of our body help our bones move?(No more than 2 words)The joints
82.How many years have scientists been working to find ways of making artificial joints that work well?(No more than 4 words)Over a century                                        
83.How does our body react to foreign substances?(No more than 9 words)It produces cells that attack andd estroy the substances
84.Why can the special metal and plastic used for artificial joints?(No more than 10 words)Because the metal is strong and the plastic is flexible.

5.Want to attract and keep top talent?Here's a suggestion:Make a flexible work schedule part of the deal.
A survey this summer of 1,215 U.S.managers and employees across a variety of industries,by EY (formerly Ernst & Young),found those aged 18to 32rank flexibility among the perks (特殊待遇) they want most,with 33% saying they wouldn't work anywhere that didn't offer it.But it seems those aged 33to 48value flextime even more:38% of them consider it non-negotiable,with men who said so,at 40%,slightly outnumbering women (37%).
"Companies first started offering flexible schedules,in the late 80s and the 90s,as a way to recruit (招募) and keep talented women,but it's gone way beyond that now,"observes Karyn Twaronite,an EY partner who came up through the tax side of the business.
Noting that both men and women,in all age groups,ranked flextime (彈性工作制) tops among non-cash perks,Twaronite adds,"That result mirrors exactly what we're seeing here at EY."The accounting and consulting giant,No.57on Fortune's Best Companies to Work For,has had thousands of employees working flexible schedules for years-including,since 2004,six weeks'of paid leave for new dads.
"Flextime may have started out as a women's issue,but it's changed into something that people of both sexes have come to expect,"he adds."I think it's partly because of the large number of two-career households now,where people have to adapt to two demanding professional schedules instead of just one."
The EY survey suggests that,in the next decade or so,the opportunity for a life outside the office will become an even bigger draw than it already is.Most of those surveyed still work a set schedule,the report notes,but"respondents expect a shift in the coming years to more flexible hours,as 62% currently work standard office hours and only 50% expect to do so in five to ten years."
That doesn't surprise Twaronite."Work is changing,"she observes."The technology to connect anywhere and anytime means that people are expected to be on call 24hours a day,especially in global companies that operate across different time zones.The other side of that is that employers are adapting to people's lives outside of work-because they have to be."

(Note:Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)
78.What is the main finding of the survey?Both men and women ranked flextime tops among non-cash perks
79.Flextime was originally aimed attalented women.
80.The result of the survey is caused by the fact thatthere are a large number oft wo-career households now/both sexes in a family have to work professionally now.
81.What makes flextime possible according to Twaronite?The technology to connect anywhere and anytime..

15.Walking down a path through some woods in Georgia,I saw a small pool of water ahead on the path.I changed my direction to go around it on the part of the path that wasn't covered by water or mud.As I reached the pool,I was suddenly attacked!Yet I did nothing for the attack.It was so unpredictable and from somewhere totally unexpected.I was surprised as well as unhurt though I had been struck four or five times.I backed up a foot and my attacker stopped attacking me.Had I been hurt,I wouldn't have found it amusing.And I was laughing.After all,I was being attacked by a butterfly!
Having stopped,laughing,I took a step forward.My attacker rushed me again.He charged towards me at full speed,attempting to hurt me but in vain.For a second time,I took a step backwards while my attacker paused.I wasn't sure what to do.After all,it's just not every day that one is attacked by a butterfly.I stepped back to look the situation over.My attacker moved back to land on the ground.That's when I discovered why my attacker was charging at me only moments earlier.He had a mate and she was dying.
Sitting close beside her,he opened and closed his wings as if to fan her.I could only admire the love and courage of that butterfly in his concern for his mate.He had taken it up on himself to attack me for his mate's sake,even though she was clearly dying and I was so large.He did so just to give her those extra few precious moments of life.His courage in attacking something thousands of times larger and heavier than himself just for his mate's safety seemed admirable.I couldn't do anything other than reward him by walking on the more difficult side of the pool.He had truly earned those moments to be with her,undisturbed.
Since then,I've always tried to remember the courage of that butterfly whenever I see huge barriers facing me.
21.Why did the writer change his direction while walking down a path?D
A.To get close to a butterfly.
B.To look the bad situation over.
C.To escape a sudden attack.
D.To avoid getting his shoes dirty.
22.What did the man find funny?B
A.Making the attacker pause.
B.Being attacked by a butterfly.
C.Stepping on a butterfly.
D.Discovering the energetic butterfly.
23.Which of the following words can best describe the male butterfly?C
A.Careless.
B.Amusing.
C.Courageous.
D.Aggressive.
24.From this experience the man learnedA.
A.what he should do when faced with trouble
