Her bus had inched along through heavy morning traffic, making her a few minutes late for her very first job. She decided she would start out half an hour earlier the next day. Once inside the building, she had to stand at the lifts and wait several minutes before one arrived. When she finally reached the office marked “King Enterprises(公司)”, she knocked at the door nervously and waited. There was no answer. She tapped on the door again, but still there was no reply. From inside the next office, she could hear the sound of voices, so she opened the door and went in. Although she was sure it was the same office she had been in two weeks before when she had had the interview with Mr. King, it looked quite different now. In fact, it hardly looked like an office at all. The employees were just standing around chatting and smoking. At the far end of the room, somebody must have just told a good joke, she thought, because there was a loud burst of laughter as she came in. For a moment she had thought they were laughing at her. Then one of the men looked at his watch, clapped his hands and said something to the others. Quickly they all went to their desks and, in a matter of seconds, everyone was hard at work. No one paid any mind to Marie. Finally she went up to the man who was sitting at the desk nearest to the door and explained that this was her first day in the office. Hardly looking up from his work, he told her to have a seat and wait for Mr. King, who would arrive at any moment. Then Marie realised that the days work in the office began just before Mr. King arrived. Later she found out that he lived in Connecticut and came into Manhattan on the same train every morning, arriving in the office at 9:35, so that his staff knew exactly when to start working.24. Marie felt nervous when she knocked at the door because .A. she had never met the boss once beforeB. there was no answer from inside the officeC. she was afraid that she had gone to the wrong placeD. she was a little bit late for work25. The people in the office suddenly started working because .A. they saw a stranger in the officeB. the boss was about to arriveC. no one wanted to talk to MarieD. they had finished their morning break26. We can infer from the passage that the employees of the enterprise .A. would start their work day by listening to a jokeB. were considerate to newcomersC. lacked devotion to the companyD. were always punctual for work27. What is probably the best title for the passage? A.A Cold WelcomeB. Punctual Like a Clock C. An Unpunctual ManagerD. Better Late Than NeverCAt times my mom has been uncomfortable seeing these qualities in me. For example，when I was 12，I went to Puerto Rico all by myself to stay with my grandmother for the summer. My mom was extremely nervous about it. She kept telling me how things were different in Puerto Rico，to always put on sunscreen（防晒霜），not to wander away from my grandmother，and other warnings. She helped me pack and did not leave the airport until she saw my plane take off. But despite（尽管） her worries，she let me go on my own. As I moved into my teens，she continued to give me space to grow and learn，even when it might have been difficult for her. When I reached my senior year，I decided to move away for college. Once again I found that I differed from my peers（同龄人）：While many of them wanted to stay close to home，I couldnt wait to be out in the world on my own. While my mom may not have been happy at the thought of my going away，she was supportive and excited for me. One big thing I realized during my senior year，as my mom granted（允许） me more freedom，was that she actually believes in me and trusts me. That means a lot. Most of my life，and especially when I was little，the main person I tried to impress in my schoolwork or other things was my mother. I knew she expected nothing but the best from me. Sometimes it was hard to live up to her standards: getting a single B on my report card would make me feel bad because I knew she wanted me to have all As. I know that her high standards have helped me stay focused on whats important，like education，and made me who I am. I am thankful for her support and involvement in my life. Most of all I respect her. She is the strongest woman I know and thats why I have turned out so strong and independent.28. When the author decided to go to Puerto Rico，his mother_. A. didnt allow him to do so B. wanted to go with himC. worried about his safety D. asked his grandmother for advice29. Why did the author decide to move away for college? A. He wanted to be different from his peers.B. He planned to keep away from his mother.C. He intended to make his mother unhappy.D. He wanted to be independent in the outside world.30. We can learn from Paragraph 3 that the authors mother_. A. had a high expectation of him B. cared little about his learningC. used to expect nothing from him D. was too strict with him31. What does the author mainly want to tell us in the text?A. His mothers deep love for him B. The importance of his mothers trust and support C. His long way to become independent D. His good relationship with his motherD Everybody loves a good wedding and Im no exception. Ive been to a load of them in my native Britain and I must say that I usually have a great time. Most recently I went to one in the mountains of Sardinia and I really enjoyed this one for the differences from those in the UK.First, the two families spent three weeks before the big day preparing all the food, from wonderful home-made delicacies to simple traditional breads and pastas. In my experience, in the UK that hardest task is left to the caterers(承办酒席的人)! This particular ceremony was in a beautiful country church and afterwards the couple was driven to the reception in a wonderfully decorated classic Fiat 500, which was really similar to what happens in the UK. However, the wedding with around 500 guests is much larger. The wine flowed, as did the chatter. There were the five or six courses of wonderful food, screaming kids running wild, the ceremonial cutting of the cake by the bride and groom, but no speeches! Not one. In the UK its traditional for the father of the bride to propose(提议) a toast, followed by the groom and finishing up with that of the best man (伴郎). His speech generally has a good laugh at the grooms expense, but here the groom was spared that particular discomfort. Instead there was a delightful custom which Id never seen before, in which six or seven of the male guests pass round the hall banging trays, drums, pots, pans that make noise, selling pieces of the grooms tie which has been cut into tiny bits. The money raised was then given to the happy couple to help them set up their new life together. Finally the evening saw a lot of traditional dancing, a little disco dancing and some karaoke. Pretty much the part I like best.32How did the author feel about the Sardinian wedding?AIt was enjoyable.BIt was very strange.CIt was expensive.DIt was unpleasant.33As for the preparations for the wedding, which part demanded the greatest effort?AThe particular ceremony.BThe wedding food.CThe disco dancing.DThe wedding speech.34What can we infer about the best mans speech at a traditional British wedding?AIt is the best one of all the wedding speeches.BIt is usually very traditional and sounds too flat.CIt is funny but often makes the groom uncomfortable.DIt is more delightful than the Sardinian ceremonial speech.35Why was the grooms tie cut into small pieces?ATo entertain the male guests as a wedding game.BTo start the dancing evening as a special ceremony.CTo get money from the guests to pay for the reception.DTo celebrate the wedding and raise money for the new couple.第二节：（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Being a man or woman isnt about blindly following popular gender(性别) patterns.
