1.A university degree is no(51)C of a job,and job hunting in itself requires a whole set of skills.if you find you are not getting past the first interview,ask yourself what is happening.Is it a(n)(52)A to communicate or are there some skills you lack?And find out what you need t do to bring yourself up to the level of(53)D that would make you more attractive t them.
Do not be too discouraged if you are(54)B for a job,but think about the reasons the employers give.Those who made the second interview might have been studying the same subject as you and be of (55)C ability level,but they had something which made them a(56)A match to the selector's ideal.That could be experience gained through projects or vacation work,or it might be that they were better at communicating what they could offer.Do not take the comments at (57)B value:think back to the interviews that generated them and make a list of where you think the shortfall in your performance lies.With this sort of analytical approach you will eventually get your foot in the door.
Deciding how long you should stay in your first job is a tough call.Stay too long and future employers may question your(58)D and ambition.Of course,it depends on where you are aiming.If you are a graduate,spending five or six years in the same job is not too long provided that you take full advantage of the (59)B.However,do not use this as a(n) (60)C for lacking interest or enthusiasm.Graduates sometimes fail to take ownership of their careers and take the initiative.It is up to you to make the most of what's available within a company,and to monitor progress in case you need to(61)C.This applies particularly if you are still not sure where your career path lies.
It is helpful to think through what kind of experience you need to get your(62)B job and it is not a problem to move around to a certain extent.But in the(63)D stages of your career you need a definite strategy for reaching your goal,so think about that carefully before deciding to step forward from your first job.You must cultivate(64)A to be competent for any role.There is no guarantee that you will get adequate training,and research has shown that if you do not receive proper help in a new role,it can take 18months to (65)C it.

13.You're rushing to work and a man ahead of you falls down on the sidewalk.Do you stop to help?In a study of by-standers,it was found that some people keep on walking.
"There is a tendency to decide that no action is needed,"says a psychologist,"In order to take action,you have to work against them."Here are some common thoughts that stop you from helping.
●Why should I be the one?I'm probably not the most able person in this crowd.You might think someone older or with more medical knowledge should offer assistance.
●What if he doesn't really need my help?The fear of embarrassment is powerful; no one wants to risk looking foolish in front of others.
●No one else looks concerned.We can follow the people around us,but most people tend to hold back their emotions in public.
"If you spot trouble and find yourself explaining inaction,force yourself to stop and evaluate the situation instead of walking on,"says the psychologist."Then retry to involve other people; you don't have to take on the entire responsibility of being helpful.Sometimes it's just a matter of turning to the person next to you and saying,'It looks like we should do something.'Or asking someone if an ambulance has been called and,if not,to call for one.Once you take action,most people will follow you."

14.As we grow old,we realize that we have so little time to read and there are so many great books that we've yet to get around to.Yet re-readers are everywhere around us.For certain fans,re-reading The Lord of the Rings is a conventional practice annually.One friend told me that Jane Austen's Emma can still surprise him,despite his having read it over 50times.
New sudden clear understandings can be gained from the process of re-reading.Journalist Rebacca Mead,a long-time Englishwoman in New York,first came across George Eliot's Middlemarch at 17.Since then,she has read it again every five years.With each re-reading,it has opened up further; in each chapter of her life,it has resonated (引起共鳴) differently.Mead evidenced the large number of ways in which really good books not only stand the test of repeated reading,but also offer fresh gifts each time we crack their spines.These kinds of books grow with us.
Scientists have also recognized the mental health benefits of re-reading.Research conducted with readers in the US found that on our first reading,we are concerned with the"what"and the"why".Second time round,we're able to better appreciate the emotions that the plot continues to express.As researcher CristelRussell of the American University explained,returning to a book"brings new or renewed appreciation of both the great book and its readers."
It's true that we often find former selves on the pages of old books (if we're fond of making notes on the pages).These texts can carry us back to a time and place,and remind us of the kind of person that we were then.We're changed not only by living experience but also by reading experience.More than the movie director,the writer calls upon our imaginations,using words to lead us to experience mixed feelings in literature.
Re-reading a book takes up more time,but as Mead confirms,the rewards make it extremely worthwhile.
28.The two books are mentioned in Paragraph 1mainly toB.
A.a(chǎn)ttract the attention of readers          
B.introduce the topic of the passage
C.provide some background information   
D.show the similarity between re-readers
29.The underlined expression"crack their spines"in Paragraph 2refers toB.
A.recite them     
B.re-read them      
C.recall them     
D.retell them
30.It can be learned from the passage thatC.
A.reading benefits people both mentally and physically
B.readers mainly focus on feelings on their first reading
C.we know ourselves better through re-reading experience
D.writers inspire the same imaginations as film directors do
31.The purpose of the passage is toC.
A.call on different understandings of old books
B.focus on the mental health benefits of reading
C.bring awareness to the significance of re-reading
D.introduce the effective ways of re-reading old books.

11.The ancient Mayan city of Chichen Itza is one of the main places of Intrest for tourists visiting the Yucatan peninsula,in Mexico.The name of the city was built based on many natural wells.
This archaeological site is located about 2to 2.5hours'drive from Cancun,Mexico.There are organized tourist trip buses to and from Cancun,but you can also get transportation from your hotel if you request it.You can also rent a car and drive there on your own,arriving at an hour that is best for you.
Chichen Itza contains many stone buildings,but there are parts of the city that are open only to archaeologists,and are not open to regular tourists.
The Great North Group is the most popular and most visited area of Chichen Itza,as this is the place where a large pyramid is located.It was built by the Maya and they called it the Temple of Kukulkan.The pyramid has four sides.These sides all come together at one point at the top.Each side has 91steps.And there is one more step at the top.Some experts believe the Maya used this building to help them know when to plant crops.Each day the sunlight falls on a different step of pyramid.This could be a way to follow the year.
At the base of the pyramid there is an empty field,where various athletics games and competitions were held.An interesting fact about Maya civilization is that they considered only people of noble blood were qualified to participate in such games.
Chichen Itza is open to visitors from 9am to 5pm all year round.If you wish to see it when it is less crowded,you'd better arrive early in the morning or later in the afternoon.Make sure you bring plenty of water and that you wear comfortable shoes and clothes,as the temperatures can be very high and the weather hot and humid.
32.There are many ways to reach the city exceptD.
A.driving your own car.
B.taking the trip buses.
C.renting a car.
D.riding your bicycle

18.If you want to pay a visit to Iceland,you'll enter a whole new region of experience.You'll discover original nature as you've never seen it before.The freedom to wander in the city or the wilds as you please is the key to the Iceland experience.
Reykjavik,the capital of Iceland,is just a part of the Icelandic experience with its midnight sun or the magical landscapes mixed with ice and fire.Reykjavik has a population of around 170,000and offers an interesting mix of culture and local village roots.
Old accounts say the ancient gods themselves guided Iceland's first settler to make his home in Reykjavik.He named the place Reykjavik (Steamy Bay)after the geothermal(地?zé)幔﹕team he saw,which today heats homes and outdoor swimming pools throughout the city,a pollution-free energy source that leaves the air very fresh,clean and clear.
A beautiful river runs through the city limits,and so do fine parks and even wild outdoor areas.Against this backcloth(背景)of nature,Reykjavik has a packed program of familiar city joys too:art museums,several theaters,an opera house,a symphony orchestra and concerts meeting the needs of all ages and tastes.
One must for all visitors is dining out on Icelandic specialties,including delicious seafood,ocean-fresh from the morning's catch,highland lamb and unusual varieties of game.Its purely natural food is imaginatively served to delight the most discerning(內(nèi)行的)of diners.Reykjavik is also famous as one of Europe's hottest nightspots,where the action on the friendly pub and nightlife scene lasts right through the night.In the evening,the downtown area is filled with activity,reaching its peak on Friday or Saturday.The number of pubs,café,discos,and other nightspots in the downtown area is astonishing.There is a rich variety of places to go:European-style cafes,nightclubs with live entertainment,dance halls for seniors,sports-theme pubs with big TV screens,cafes that offer over 100types of beer,an Irish pub,a Spanish café,a French wine bar.
Walking distances are short downtown,and everything worth seeing outside the city center can be quickly and conveniently reached by bus.With its long,easy-going main street and large shopping mall,Iceland's capital is a great place to shop too-with a bonus of tax-free shopping for visitors!
A full range of accommodations is available in Reykjavik,from international-standard hotels with good conference facilities,through smaller hotels and comfortable guesthouses,to a campsite in the city's biggest park.

6.Have you ever had such experience?Travelers in the airport line up and march slowly toward the full-body scanner(掃描儀).Have you wondered that screening may one day speed up dramatically?Now,scientists are creating a cheap and smart new device that gathers data in a flash.
It relies on microwaves to image objects.Microwaves are a form of electromagnetic radiation(電磁輻射)-types of energy that travel through space as a wave.Electromagnetic radiation includes visible (可見(jiàn)的) light,which can be seen with the naked eye.It also includes several types of energy,such as microwaves,that aren't visible with the naked eye.
In January,scientists at Duke University and elsewhere reported creating a new device that could help make smarter,faster and cheaper scanning machines.So far,the new device has been tested only in the lab.But if it works outside the lab,too,it could find use in a host of new products.
At airports,the new device could be used in machines that scan people for guns,knives or other would-be weapons.A technique similar to the one used by the researchers could be applied to other scanners,like those doctors use to peer into the body.This could reduce the amount of time patients spend in a scanner and the cost of such procedures.The device's designers even imagine police officers wearing vests embedded with the new technology to help identify a hidden weapon.
Instead of requiring expensive technology,a scanner based on the device could use existing materials (like copper) in a smarter way.Called metamaterials,these become useful based on how they're designed,not what they're made of.
"This definitely represents a less expensive and potentially faster alternative to current imaging methods,and its working principle is easily understood,"Kevin Kelly told Science News.Kelly is a technology specialist at Rice University in Houston.

67.What can we infer from the first paragraph?D.
A.Every traveler is willing to have a security scan.
B.The speed of security scan is slow because of so many travelers.
C.The new system has been put into market.
D.The current security scan system should be improved.
68.What is special about microwaves compared to visible light according to the passage?B.
A.It is a form of electromagnetic radiation.
B.You can't see it with your naked eyes.
C.It can travel through space.
D.It is a kind of energy.
69.With the new device we could do the following things exceptC.
A.shortening the patients'test time
B.helping patients spend less money
C.erasing the suffering of the patient
D.helping to identify a hidden weapon
70.What do you think the author will probably talk about in the following paragraph?A.
A.How does the new device work?
B.What is the new device like?
C.The application of the new device.
D.People's attitude about the new device.

On the first day of my visit,we went out with one of my father's friends for lunch at an outdoor cafe.We walked along that afternoon,did some shopping,ate on the street table,and laughed over my son's funny facial expressions.Gone was my father's critical(挑剔的)air and strict rules.Who was this person I knew as my father,who seemed so friendly and interesting to be around?What had held him back before?
The next day my dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood.Although our times together became easier over the years,I never felt closer to him at that moment.After so many years,I'm at last seeing another side of my father.And in doing so,I'm delighted with my new friend-My dad,in his new home in Arizona,who is back to me from where he was.

10.We're looking for personality
HAVE you ever made a profit from walking a dog?Do you like working alone or in groups?Have you ever set a world record in anything?Answer those the right way and you could land a job at Google.
In its desperate search for more engineers and sales representatives for its rapidly growing business,Google has created an automated way to look through the more than 100,000 job applications it receives each month.
Instead of simply looking for people with straight-As,it's starting to ask applicants to fill out an in-depth online survey that examines their attitude,behavior and personality.
Questions concern everything from the age the applicant first got excited about computers to whether the person has ever tutored.They also seek out non-traditional information.This can include what magazines the applicant subscribes to or what pets that person has.
The answers are fed into a series of formulas created by Google's mathematicians that spit out a score from zero to 100.This is meant to predict how well a person will fit into the freewheeling,competitive company culture.
"Google has doubled its number of employees in each of the last three years.As we get bigger,we find it harder and harder to find enough people,'said Laszlo Bock,Google's vice-president for people operations."Interviews are a terrible predictor of performance.With traditional hiring methods,we might overlook some of the best candidates,"he said..
The online survey is based on the answers to 300questions sent out last summer to every employee at the head office in California's Silicon Valley.Now about 15per cent of applicants take the survey.It will be used for all applicants starting this month.
Whether this method will help Google find the right people is yet to be seen."We wanted to cast a very wide net,"said Bock."It is not unusual to walk the halls here at our office in Silicon Valley and bump into dogs.Maybe people who own dogs have some personality trait that is useful."

60.In terms of finding the right people,the passage is mainly aboutA.
A.Google's attempts            B.Google's success
C.Google's results             D.Google's failure
61.What is not included in the online survey?C
A.a(chǎn)ttitude     B.behavior    C.grades   D.personality.
62.Why does the author mention dog owners?D
A.Dog owners like to work at Google.
B.Dog owners make the workplace happier.
C.Dog owners are more clever than other people.
D.Dog owners have a non-traditional personality.

11.A weather map is an important tool for geographers.A succession of three or four maps presents a continuous picture of weather changes.Weather forecasters are able to determine the speed of air masses and fronts(冷暖空氣團(tuán)接觸的鋒)to determine whether an individual pressure area is deepening or becoming shallow and whether a front is increasing or decreasing in intensity.They are also able to determine whether an air mass is retaining its original characteristics or taking on those of the surface over which it is moving.Thus,a most significant function of the map is to reveal a synoptic picture of conditions in the atmosphere at a given time.
All students of geography should be able to interpret a weather map accurately.Weather maps contain an enormous amount of information about weather conditions existing at the time of observation over a large geographical area.They reveal in a few minutes what otherwise would take hours to describe.The United States Weather Bureau issues information about approaching storms,floods,frosts,droughts,and all climatic conditions in general.Twice a month it issues a 30-day"outlook"which is a rough guide to weather conditions likely to occur over broad areas of the United States.These 30-day outlooks are based upon an analysis of the upper air levels which often set the stage for the development of air masses,fronts,and storms.
Considerable effort is being exerted today to achieve more accurate weather predictions.With the use of electronic instruments and earth satellites,enormous gains have taken place recently in identifying and tracking storms over regions which have but few meteorological stations (氣象站).Extensive experiments are also in progress for weather modification(改變)studies.But the limitations of modification have prevented meteorological results except in the seeding of super-cooled,upslope mountainous winds which have produced additional orographic (山岳形態(tài)的) precipitation on the windward side of mountain ranges.Nevertheless,they have provided a clearer understanding of the fundamentals of weather elements.
 
72.By reading weather maps,students majoring in geography canC.
A.design a project of weather modification
B.interpret the weather condition before the time of observation 
C.obtain data on atmospheric conditions over a wide area 
D.survey ever-changing fronts in local meteorological stations
73.A thirty-day forecast is determined by examiningB.
A.daily weather maps              
B.upper air levels
C.satellite reports                   
D.changing fronts
74.The observation of weather conditions by satellites is advantageous becauseD
A.electronic instruments are used
B.it enables man to alter the weather
C.it makes weather prediction more time-consuming
D.information not obtained readily otherwise can be gained
75.At the present time,experiments are being conducted inA.
A.controlling and influencing weather
B.determining density of pressure groups
C.30-day"outlooks"
D.predicting storms.
