(2013·高考山東卷，D)Sparrow is a fast­food chain with 200 restaurants.Some years ago，the group to which Sparrow belonged was taken over by another company.Although Sparrow showed no sign of declining，the chain was generally in an unhealthy state.With more and more fast­food concepts reaching the market，the Sparrow menu had to struggle for attention.And to make matters worse，its new owner had no plans to give it the funds it required.
Sparrow failed to grow for another two years，until a new CEO，Carl Pearson，decided to build up its market share.He did a survey，which showed that consumers who already used Sparrow restaurants were extremely positive about the chain，while customers of other fast­food chains were unwilling to turn away from them.Sparrow had to develop a new promotional campaign.
Pearson faced a battle over the future of the Sparrow brand.The chain’s owner now favored rebranding Sparrow as Marcy’s restaurants.Pearson resisted，arguing for an advertising campaign designed to convince customers that visits to Sparrow restaurants were fun.Such an attempt to establish a positive relationship between a company and the general public was unusual for that time.Pearson strongly believed that numbers were the key to success，rather than customers’ spending power.Finally，the owner accepted his idea.
The campaign itself changed the traditional advertising style of the fast­food industry.The TV ads of Sparrow focused on entertainment and featured original songs performed by a variety of stars.Instead of showing the superiority of a specific product，the intention was to put Sparrow in the hearts of potential customers.
Pearson also made other decisions which he believed would contribute to the new Sparrow image.For example，he offered to lower the rent of any restaurants which achieved a certain increase in their turnover(營業(yè)額)．
These efforts paid off，and Sparrow soon became one of the most successful fast­food chains in the regions where it operated.
小題1:Which was one of the problems Sparrow faced before Pearson became CEO?
A．The number of its customers was declining.
B．Its customers found the food unhealthy.
C．It was in need of financial support.
D．Most of its restaurants were closed.
小題2:What does the underlined word“them”in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A．Customers of Sparrow restaurants.
B．Sparrow restaurants.
C．Customers of other fast­food chains.
D．Other fast­food chains.
小題3:For what purpose did Pearson start the advertising campaign?
A．To build a good relationship with the public.
B．To stress the unusual tradition of Sparrow.
C．To learn about customers’spending power.
D．To meet the challenge from Marcy’s restaurants.
小題4:The TV ads of Sparrow ________.
A．changed people’s views on pop stars
B．a(chǎn)mused the public with original songs
C．focused on the superiority of its products
D．influenced the eating habits of the audience
小題5:What was Pearson’s achievement as a CEO?
A．He managed to pay off Sparrow’s debts.
B．He made Sparrow much more competitive.
C．He helped Sparrow take over a company.
D．He improved the welfare of Sparrow employees.

These young men were a different kind of prisoner from those we had seen before. They- were brave, hostile（懷敵意的）and＿1__ they would not take orders, and shouted "Amandla！”at every opportunity. Their instinct was to confront（對抗）rather than cooperate. The authorities② did not know how to handle them, and they turned the island upside down. During the Rivonia Trial, I remarked to a security policeman that if the government did not reform itself, the freedom fighters who would take our place③would some-day make the authorities miss us. That day had indeed come on Robben Island.
In these young men we saw the angry revolutionary spirit of the times. I had had some warning. On a visit with Winnie a few months before, she had managed to tell me through our coded conversation that there was a rising class of discontented youths④ who were violent and Africanist in beliefs. She said they were changing the nature of the struggle and that I should be aware of them.
The new prisoners were shocked by what they considered the inhuman conditions of the island, and said that they could not understand how we could live in such a way. We told them that they should have seen the island in 1964. But they were almost as sceptical of us as they were of the authorities. They chose to ignore our calls for discipline and thought our advice weak and unassertive（不果斷）．
It was obvious that they regarded us, the Rivonia Trialists⑤，as moderates⑥（溫和派）． After so many years of being branded a radical（激進的）revolutionary, to be seen as a moderate was a novel and not altogether pleasant feeling. I knew that I could react in one of two ways：I could scold them for their disrespect or I could listen to what they were saying. I chose the latter.
'then some of these men, such as Strini Moodley of the South African Students' Organization and Saths Cooper of the Black People's Convention, came into our section, I __2____
Shortly after their arrival on the island, the commanding officer came and asked me as a favour to address the young men. He wanted me to tell them to behave themselves, to recognize the fact that they were in prison and to accept the discipline of prison life．I told him that I was not prepared to do that. Under the circumstances, they would have regarded me as a follower of the authorities.
(-adapted from "Long walk to freedom: The autobiography of Nelson Mandela')

科目：高中英語 來源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

One day, when I was working as a psychologist(心理學家) in England, a young boy showed up in my office. It was David. He kept walking up and down restlessly, his face pale, and his hands shaking slightly. His head teacher had introduced him to me before. “This boy has lost his family,” he wrote. “He is understandably very sad and refuses to talk to others, and I’m very worried about him. Can you help?” 
I looked at David and showed him to a chair. How could I help him? There are problems which psychology doesn’t have the answer to, and which no words can describe. Sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and silently. And I would do in this way.
The first two times we met, David didn’t say a word. He sat there, only looking up to look at the children’s drawings on the wall behind me. I suggested we play a game of chess. He nodded. After that he played chess with me every Wednesday afternoon—in complete silence and without looking at me. It’s not easy to cheat in chess, but I admit I made sure David won once or twice. 
Usually, he arrived earlier than agreed, took the chess board and pieces from the shelf and began setting them up before I even got a chance to sit down. It seemed as if he enjoyed my company. But why did he never look at me? 
“Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with,” I thought. “Perhaps he senses that I respect his suffering.” Some months later, when we were playing chess, he looked up at me suddenly. 
“It’s your turn,” he said. 
After that day, David started talking. He got friends in school and joined a bicycle club. He wrote to me a few times, about his biking with some friends, and about his plan to get into university. Now he had really started to live his own life. 
Maybe I gave David something. But I also learned that one—without any words—can reach out to another person. All it takes is a hug, a shoulder to cry on, a friendly touch, and an ear that listens. 
小題1:When he first met the author, David_________. 
A．felt a little excitedB．walked stubbornly
C．looked a little nervousD．showed up with his teacher
小題2:As a psychologist, the author __________.
A．was uncertain about psychologyB．was ready to listen to David
C．was able to describe David’s problemD．was sure of solving David’s problem
小題3:David enjoyed being with the author because he____________.
A．needed to share pain with the author
B．wanted to ask the author for advice
C．liked the children’s drawing in the office
D．beat the author many times in the chess game
小題4:What can be inferred about David? 
A．He recovered after months of treatment.
B．He liked biking before he lost his family.
C．He went into university soon after starting to talk.
D．He got friends in school before he met the author.
小題5:What made David change?
A．His teacher’s help.
B．His exchange of letters with the author.
C．The author’s friendship.
D．The author’s silent communication with him.
