the last time someone did something unexpectedly nice for you？Not someone you knew，but a total stranger？Its happened to me a few times，but two instances really stand out.A few years ago，I was dining out with a person who kept going on and on about himself，completely unaware of the fact that I was sitting there in misery(痛苦)It wasnt his company that disappointed me.I was recovering from a bad grade in my study.I could have collapsed(崩溃) in tears right there at the table.When we picked up the check，the waitress said，“Your meal was already paid for.”My friend and I didnt have a clue how it happened.Then I remembered a man coming in out of the corner of my eye.He was dressed in mostly white，sat down at the bar，had a glass of wine，stayed for maybe ten minutes，and then left.The waitress said，“Yes，the gentleman who was in here a while ago paid for you.”Just last year，I was running a halfmarathon.With just 0.1 miles to go，I was out of gas.Runners call it “hitting the wall”；I thought I couldnt move another muscle.Out of nowhere，a teenager jogged up next to me and said，“Whats your name，sweetie？Jennifer？Okay，Jennifer，lets go！Come on！Its just around the corner！You can do it！”And he ran with me until I picked up my pace.I found him at the finish line to thank him for the encouragement only to learn he wasnt even supposed to be in the race that day.He was running in place of someone else.I still shake my head when I think of these momentary angels that came to me at my point of need.Do you have any experiences like these?56Why did the author say she was in misery?ABecause she got into trouble with her friend.BBecause she couldnt enjoy her meal quietly.CBecause her friend complained so much.DBecause she did poorly in her study.57What do you think of the man paying for the meal?AHe was generous and warmhearted.BHe knew the author well and always helped her.CHe showed his kindness to his girlfriend.DHe liked making fun of others.58How did the teenager help the author?AHe gave the author a glass of water.BHe ran following the author.CHe gave the author a lift.DHe ran with the author.59Which of the following is the best title for the passage?AThe Kindness of StrangersBAn Unpleasant Friend CTwo Unbelievable ExperiencesDHitting the WallBExam results do not matter to future employers as much as candidates(应试者)who are “jobready” and have a broad range of life，work and social skills，business groups say.While parents and students alike worry about school grades and exam results，employers are looking for something that sets a potential employee apart from the average job seeker.Business Council of Australia spokesman Scott Thompson said that while education was important，it was the skills learned through extracurricular(课外的)activities that really mattered to an employer.“Employers are increasingly focused on graduates who are jobready，” Mr.Thompson said.“Theyre looking at the sorts of，what we call，employability skillsthat graduates can bring.Part of that comes from quality education，but those who have vocational experience that can be useful for the jobs theyre looking for；theyre going to be considered very favorably.”Mr.Thompson said young peoplewhether theyre in high school or universityneed to get extra skills on their resumes(个人简历) if they want an advantage over their peers(同龄人)“As a general principle，graduates and young people who are looking to enter the workforce should think about the sorts of employability skills theyre going to need to meet the requirements of jobs theyll be looking at in the years ahead，” he said.“So if they can bring those skill sets to the table，they should be well positioned to succeed in the job market.”Business SA chief executive Peter Vaughan agreed，saying that while the importance of education should not be downplayed，experience was often the deal maker in the employment process.“Education is a major factor in all kinds of employment，and we cannot underestimate(低估) its importance，but having experience in the workforce provides invaluable assistance and guidance to students and allows employers to recruit school leavers with skills relevant to the workplace，” he said.60What sets a potential employee apart from the average job seeker?AHigh examination scores.BA wide range of knowledge.CPractical work and life skills.DGood educational background.61According to Scott Thompson，_.Astudents should focus on their school lessonsBstudents should choose to work before graduationCstudents benefit more from extracurricular activitiesDemployability skills cannot be gained through education62The underlined word “downplayed” in Paragraph 7 can be replaced by “_”Avalued Brefused Cstressed Dignored63What is this passage mainly about?ALife skills are more important than exam results.BExam results are more important than life skills.CEducation isnt that important.DFinding a job is very difficult.CAll seniors 55 and older are invited to a special meeting next Tuesday in the Senior Center.The speaker will be James Carter，the director of a nonprofit organization dedicated to making the golden years fun and interesting.“We have too many seniors who act old because they think theyre old，”said Carter.“Our goal is to help seniors realize that theyre as young and active as they want to be.Getting older does not mean sitting around waiting to die.It means getting out and doing all the things you never had time to do while you were working and raising a family.”Carter will identify the services and activities that are available to seniors locally and statewide.Included are legal aid，tax advice，discounts for bus and taxi travel in the city，and free blood pressure testing on the first Monday of each month.Testing for diabetes and for cataracts is offered four times a year for a nominal fee.Volunteers deliver inexpensive dinners to seniors who are homebound because of illness or injury.An Internet class begins this month for seniors who want to visit the World Wide Web.New activities at the Senior Center include Bingo on Friday and Saturday nights，with a grand prize of $50 each night.The center is also offering Strength Training classes.“As you get older，”said Carter，“you need to keep both your mind and your body active.”64According to Carter, we can learn _.Agetting older means sitting around waiting to dieBseniors are as young and active as young peopleCif they think theyre young，seniors will act youngDwhen people are young，they have time to do what they want to65Which of the following statements is TRUE?AMany seniors realize that getting older means getting out.B James Carter is one of the seniors who act old.CSeniors can play Bingo at the Senior Center every night.DSeniors can have their blood pressure tested for free once a month.66The underlined word“nominal”in Paragraph 3 roughly means “_”Alow Bhigh Cactual Dnormal67From the passage we can conclude that the Senior Center is _.Ato make seniors young and activeBto keep seniors minds activeCto make seniors bodies activeDto help seniors live a fun and colorful lifeDBarack Obama，Lady Gaga and Steve Jobswhat do they have in common？They are，of course，all Americans.And according to a survey by social networking site ，they all best illustrate(举例说明) the word “cool”But just what does it mean to say someone is “cool”？Most would answer that it is something to do with being independentminded and not following the crowd.Yale University art professor Robert Farris Thompson says that the term “cool” goes back to 15th century West African philosophy(哲学)“Cool” relates to ideas of grace(优雅) under pressure.“In Africa，”he writes，“coolness is a positive quality which combines calmness，silence，and life.”The modern idea of “cool” developed largely in the US in the period after World War .“Postwar cool was in part an expression of warweariness.it went against the strict social rules of the time，”write sociologists Dick Pountain and David Robins in Cool Rules：Anatomy of an Attitude.But it was the American actor James Dean who became the symbol for “cool” in the hugely successful 1955 movie Rebel Without a Cause.Dean plays a tough guy who disobeys his parents and the authorities.He always gets the girl，smokes cigarettes，wears a leather jacket and beats up bullies(欺凌弱小者)In the movie，Dean showed what “cool” would mean to American young people for the next 60 years.Today the focus of “cool” has changed to athletics stars.Often in movies about schools，students gain popularity on the athletics field more than in the classroom.This can be seen quite clearly in movies like Varsity Blues and John Tucker Must Die.But many teenagers also think being smart is cool.Chess and other thinking games have been becoming more popular in schools.“Call it the Harry Potterization of Americaa time when being smart is the new cool，” writes journalist Joe Sunnen.68Barack Obama，Lady Gaga and Steve Jobs are mentioned in the first paragraph to _.Aintroduce the topicBdraw our attentionCtell us what they have in commonDtell us what is “cool”69If you were considered “cool” in Africa in the 15th century，you _.Athought and acted differently from the majorityBhad a calm and quiet attitude towards lifeCdidnt observe rules and authoritiesDhad all kinds of “bad” manner
