There a lot of foreigners stayed for night. He didnt know any other language but English and he found it difficult for him to understand the foreign visitors. Sometimes he had to use the body language to “talk” with them, and tried his best to make himself understood. But he was often misunderstood and it brought him a lot of trouble. A friend of his who learned a few foreign languages in a university would teach him. He was happy and studied hard. At first he learned some, but soon he found it wasnt easy to remember the words and expressions. His friend advised him to write down the useful expressions in his notebook so that he could use them when necessary. He did as he was told. He found it helpful for him to do so. One evening there were plenty of people in the dining room. They were all busy eating something except a Japanese. He was walking around there and waiting for his wife who was dressing herself up upstairs. Mr. Jackson thought to himself, “The man wants to eat something but he doesnt know any English. Let me help him.” As he knew only a little Japanese, he had to bring out his notebook and showed it to the man, pointing to the sentence “Im hungry”.The Japanese had a look at it and gave him two pounds and left. 21.

Dont be surprised if the interviewer asks you something like: “How are you today?” or “What do you think of the weather lately?” Answer the question without going into too much detail.Talking about qualifications is the most important part of any job interview. Your qualifications include your education and any special training you may have received in the past. Your qualifications also include your experience in any previous work. It is important to explain what experience you have in detail. Generally, employers want to know exactly what you did and how well you acplished your tasks. This is not the time to be modest.Try to avoid some big mistakes in the job interview, such as leaving the mobile on and criticizing previous bosses. The worst thing is you yourself have no questions. Having no questions shows you are either not interested or not prepared. Remember that interviewers are more impressed with the questions you ask than the selling points you try to make. 24. The passage is mainly about _.

Arriving lateCThe average person learns most of the 30 00040 000 words whose meanings he or she recognizes by hearing them or getting familiar with them in the context or simply absorbing them without conscious effort. The best way to build a good vocabulary, therefore, is to read a great deal and to participate in a lot of good talks. There are relatively few words that we learn permanently by purposefully referring to dictionaries or keeping word lists. However, even those extra few are of value, and no one will make a mistake by working on developing a larger vocabulary. Here are some suggestions of how to do it. Read plenty of good books. When you e across a new word, or a new meaning of an old word, stop and see if you can understand it from its context. If you cant, and if you can manage without interrupting the thought of the book too much, look it up in a dictionary or ask somebody and then repeat its meaning to yourself a couple of times. If you are really conscientious(认真的), write the word and its meaning in a personal vocabulary list preferably using it in a sentence, or you can keep a special vocabulary notebook. Go over the list from time to time. Further, try to use a new word in writing or conversation a few times over the next several days. Listen to good talks and be alert to new words you hear or to new meanings of words you already know. Then treat them just as you treat the new words you read. Learn and be alert to the parts of words: prefixes, suffixes and roots. Knowing them enables you to make intelligent guesses about the meaning of words. If you are studying a foreign language, be alert to words in that language which relate to words in English. English has inherited(继承) or borrowed much of its vocabulary of 500 000600 000 words from Latin, Greek, French, Spanish and German. 28. When you meet a new word in reading, what should you do? A. Guess its meaning. B. Ask somebody. C. Look it up in a dictionary. D. All of the above. 29. According to this passage, the best way to build a good vocabulary is _. A. to remember a lot B. to read a great deal C. to take part in a lot of good talks D. both B and C 30. The phrase “be alert to” in the third paragraph may best be replaced by “_”. A. look at B. pay attention to C. write down D. learn by heart 31. In the fourth paragraph, the word “them” refers to _. A. the parts of words B. prefixes C.suffixes D. rootsD There is no denying that some people live to be older than others. Followed are the standard explanations: keeping a moderate diet, engaging in regular exercise, etc. But what effect does your personality have on your longevity (长寿）？ Are there any kinds of personalities contributing to longer lives? A new study in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society looked at these questions by examining the personality characteristics of 246 children of people who had lived to be at least 100. According to the study, those who live the longest are more outgoing, more active and less neurotic(神经质的）than other people. Long-living women are also more likely to be sympathetic and cooperative than women with a normal life span. These findings are in agreement with what you would expect from the evolutionary theory: those who like to make friends and help others can gather enough resources to make it through tough times. Interestingly, however, other characteristics that you might consider advantageous had no impact on whether study participants were likely to live longer. Those who were more self-disciplined, for instance, were no more likely to live to be very old. Also, being open to new ideas had no relationship to long life, which might explain all those bad-tempered old people who are fixed in their ways. Whether you can successfully change your personality as an adult is the subject of a longstanding psychological debate. But the new paper suggests that if you want long life, you should strive to be as outgoing as possible. Unfortunately, another recent study shows that your mothers personality may also help determine your longevity. That study looked at nearly 28, 000 Norwegian mothers and found that those moms who were more anxious, depressed and angry were more likely to feed their kids unhealthy diets. Patterns of childhood eating can be hard to break when were adults, which may mean that kids of depressed moms end up dying younger. Personality isnt destiny, and everyone knows that individuals can learn to change. But both studies show that long life isnt just a matter of your physical health but of your mental health.32.The purpose of the study in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society is .A. to see whether peoples personality affects their life span B. to find out if ones lifestyle has any effect on their healthC. to investigate the role of exercise in living a long lifeD. to examine all the factors contributing to longevity33. What does the author imply about outgoing and sympathetic people?A. They have a good understanding of evolution. B. They are better at negotiating an agreement.C. They are more likely to get over hardship. D. They generally appear more resourceful.34. What finding of the study might prove somewhat out of our expectation?A. Easy-going people can also live a relatively long life.B. Such characteristics as self-discipline have no effect on longevity.C. Advantageous personality characteristics actually vary with times.D. Readiness to accept new ideas helps one enjoy longevity.35.What is the main idea of this passage?A. Anger and depression cut ones life span short. B. Health is in large part related to ones lifestyle.C. Personality plays a decisive role in longevity. D. Longevity results from mental and physical health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。Negative situations happen all the time.
