When Roy, the manager, had to leave for a few days, he put Rogers in charge. What if the workers refuse to follow my orders? Rogers asked. He thought of Tony, a worker who was always giving the other men a hard time. Fire them, Roy said. Then, as if reading Rogers mind, he added, I suppose you want to fire Tony if you get the chance. Id feel bad about that. Tony is the most reliable worker Ive ever had. I know he complains a lot, but he comes first and leaves last. There has not been an accident on the hill where he works for eight years. Rogers took over the managers job the next day. He went to Tony and spoke to him, Tony, did you know that Im in charge today? Tony didnt show any respect or interest. I was going to fire you because you once gave me a hard time, but I want you to know Im not, he told Tony, adding what Roy had said. When Rogers finished, tears streamed down Tonys face. That day Tony worked harder than ever before and he smiled for the first time! Rogers went back to school after that summer. Twelve years later he met Tony again. He was in charge of one of the largest logging companies in the West. Rogers asked him how he managed to become so successful.

E-books are all over the Internet; some are free, and some are not. E-books are basically electronic books you can read without having to carry heavy books and flip through (翻阅) all the pages. Now authors not only sell regular books in bookstores but also sell e-books on the Internet. Some e-books are sold on CDs, too. You can get all types of software right from the Internet. After you download it, you have it. It is so convenient that you can get it even without leaving the house. These are the advantages we have in todays high-tech world. We can find videos of different people. There are so many websites with videos that it would take you some time to actually go through them all. The cool thing about videos is that some people have their own websites or their own spaces where they can upload videos of their families or of different events and allow other people to view them. It is amazing. The Internet is an exciting place and it plays a big part in our lives today. You can even pay your bills on the Internet if thats what you want to do. The marketing industry is also doing a lot better because of the Internet. Companies can communicate very quickly with each other over the Internet. 60. What can we know from the second paragraph?A. People are free to read e-books on the Internet.B. People prefer e-books to paper books.C. Some authors sell e-books in bookstores.D. Some people sell e-books on CDs. 61.

He came to Georgetown University on a scholarship to study medicinebut Coach John Thompson got a look at Dikembe and had a different idea. Dikembe became a star in the NBA, and a citizen of the United States. But he never forgot the land of his birth, or the duty to share his fortune with others. He built a new hospital in his old hometown in the Congo. A friend has said of this goodhearted man: “ Mutombo believes that God has given him this chance to do great things.”Success and kindness After her daughter was born, Julie Aigner-Clark searched for ways to share her love of music and art with her child. So she borrowed some equipment, and began filming childrens videos in her own house. The Baby Einstein Company was born, and in just five years her business grew to more than $20 million in sales. And she is using her success to help othersproducing child safety videos with John Walsh of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. Julie says of her new program: “ I believe its the most important thing that I have ever done. I believe that children have the right to live in a world that is safe.”Bravery and courage A few weeks ago, Wesley Autrey was waiting at a Harlen subway station with his two little girls when he saw a man fall into the path of a train. With seconds to act, Wesley jumped onto the tracks, pulled the man into the space between the rails, and held him as the train passed right above their heads. He insists hes not a hero. He says: “ We have got to show each other some love.”64. What was Mutombo praised for?A. His willingness to help the needyB. Being a student of medicine C. His work in the church D.

What did the Baby Einstein Company do at its beginning?A. Produce safety equipment for children B. Make videos to make Julies own daughter famous C. Sell childrens music and artwork D. Look for missing and exploited children 67. Why was Wesley Autrey praised as a hero?A.He saved a person without considering his own safety. B. He stopped a man from destroying the rails. C. He protected two little girls from getting hurt.D. He helped a man get across the rails.DIn the computer age, most of us take a broadband（宽带）Internet connection for granted. Whether cable or mobile broadband, todays connections are many times faster than those in the early days. Videos play smoothly, complex websites load quickly, and files download much faster than ten years ago. And the files are much bigger too. Theres a catch, of course: You have to live near enough to a major city to get broadband Internet. If you dont, its slow dial-up access for you. And for those living really far out, there may be no Internet access at all. Technology experts often talk about the “last mile” problem, which refers to the difficulty of bringing Internet access to remote locations. In cities and suburbs, its relatively easy to provide access for everyone. It is much more difficult to deliver access to those living far from cities, especially in developing countries. Internet service providers, for their part, have been reluctant to provide access to sparsely populated(人口稀疏地) areas. The handful of Internet users they would reach wouldnt cover the expense. But every year, technological advancements allow of more and more Internet users. Most broadband connections today run over existing cable TV and telephone lines although these technologies arent available everywhere. Some companies have delivered the Internet over standard power lines. Advancements in cheaper, more efficient fiber optics cables (光纤电缆) promise to bring extremely fast Internet connections to more users. Still, the “last mile” problem remains hard to deal with. There will always be somewhere that doesnt have an affordable broadband connection. But someday that might not matter. If the rapid progress in cell phone technology is any indication (迹象), it may not be too long before an Internet connection simply follows you wherever you go.68. The underlined part “a catch” (in Paragraph 2) probably means “_”.Aa rare challenge Ba desirable planCan efficient device Da hidden problem69. What can we know from the third paragraph? AInternet connection has not been popular in most cities.BInternet service providers care about rural（农村的）customers.CComputer is popular in developing countries.DIt is hard to bring Internet access to users in remote areas.70. What may eventually settle the “last mile” problem? AThe rapid progress in cell phone technology.BMore and more Internet users.CMore and more Internet connections.DThe broadband connections getting faster.第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D、E、F和G）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Money MattersParents should help children understand money. 71 So you may start
