Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked a, b, c, and d. you should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the answer sheet with a single line through the center.(1) In one way of thinking , failure is part of life. In another way, failure may be a way towards success. The “ spite story” is often told. Robert Bruce, leader of the Scots (苏格兰人)in the 13th century, was hiding in a cave from the English .He watched a spider(蜘蛛) spinning a web. The spider tried to reach across a rough place in the rock. He tried six times to span the gap. On the seventh time he made it and went on to spin his web. Bruce is said to have taken heart and to have gone on to defeat the English. Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, made hundreds of models that failed before he found the right way to make one. So what? First, always think about your failure. What caused it? Were conditions right? Were you in top form yourself? What can you change so things will go right next time?Second , is the goal youre trying to reach the right one? Try to do some thinking about want your real goals may be. Think about this question. “if I do succeed in this , where will it get me ?”This may help you prevent failure in things you shouldnt be doing anyway. The third thing to bear in mind about failure is that its a part of life .Learn to “live with yourself” even though you may have failed .Remember , “You cantwin them all.”1.

Bruce and Edison were successful examples.B. Failure may be regarded as a way toward success.C.

Without requiring the seller to purchase goods from the person who buys his products, or vice versa. Hence producers who know they will be paid in money, can concentrate on finding the most suitable outlet for their goods, while buyers who will pay in money, can concentrate on finding cheapest market for the things they wish to purchase. Specialization, which is vital to an advanced economy, is encouraged, because people whose output is not a complete product but only a part of one in which many others are involved can be paid an amount equivalent to their share of the product. Another advantage of money is that it is a measure of value- that is, it serves as a unit in terms of which the relative values of different products can be expressed. In a barter economy it would be necessary to determine how many plates were worth one hundred weight of cotton, or how many pens should be exchanged for a ton of coal. Which would be a difficult and time-consuming task. The process of establishing relative values would have to be undertaken for every act of exchange, according to products were being offered against one another, and according to the two parties desires and preferences. If I am trying to barter fish for bananas, for example, a lot would depend on whether the person is willing to exchange bananas or is not keen on fish.Thirdly, money acts as a store of wealth. It is difficult to imagine saving under a barter system. No one engaged on only one stage in the manufacture of a product could save part of his output, since he would be producing nothing complete. Even when a person actually produced a complete product the difficulties would be overwhelming. Most products deteriorate fairly rapidly, either physically or in value, a result of long storage; even if storage were possible, the practice of storing products for years on would involve obvious disadvantage- imagine a coal-miner attempting to save enough coal, which of course is his product, to keep him for life. If wealth could not be saved, or only with great difficulty, future needs could not be provided for, or capital accumulated to raise productivity.6 Using money as a medium of exchange means that_.A you have to sell something in order to buy somethingB you have to buy something in order to sell somethingC you dont have to buy something in order to sell somethingD the seller and the purchaser are the same person7 Specialization is encouraged because_.A people can use their money to buy whatever they wantB people do not need to make a complete product for exchangeC people make a great contribution to manufacture of a productD people cannot use their money to buy whatever they want8 A barter economy is one in which _.A value is decided by weightB value is decided by numberC money is used and foods are not exchangedD goods are exchanged and money is not used9 If one had to save products instead of money, _.A this would need years of practiceB coal, for example, would lose its valueC they could not be stored for years on endD many products would lose their value10 how many advantages of money are mentioned in this passages?A Two B Three C Four D Five(3)There is, perhaps, no other sport in the world quite so exciting as skiing. For viewers, it is a spectacle of unsurpassed beauty. For skiers, it is a vivid personal experience, a thrilling test of mind, muscle, and nerves. And more and more, Americans are discovering this thrill for themselves. Not too long ago, skiing had virtually no part in the American sports scene. If it were thought of at all, it was purely as a European sport. Then came the 1932 Winter Olympics at Lake Placid, New York. Americans got their first good look at skiing and made for the hills. Today ski trains make regular runs form our cities to the great, white outdoors. Small wooden houses dot the mountain sides offering skiers the warmth of their firesides. In addition to joy and exhilaration(兴奋,高兴), skiing offers other attractions .It is a comparatively inexpensive sport, and, for the young, the art of skiing is often mastered in a very short time. The special thrill of skiing is well described by buddy Werner. “Its all up to you,” he says .” No teammates can help. Youre alone. Its you against the snow, the mountains, the terrain (地形)yourself. You are a warrior.”11 To the spectator, skiing is _.A. vivid personal experienceB. a thrilling test of muscleC. a spectacle of unsurpassed beautyD. not exciting12 In 1932,when the Winter Olympics were held at Lake Placid_.A. Americans became enthusiastic about the sport.B. Americans saw skiing for the very first time C. America did not enter into competitionD.

Americans were afraid of skiing C. skiing became popular only in the backwoods D. the only place Americans could ski was in the Rocky Mountains14 Young people like skiing, because_.A. it takes a long time to learnB. it is extremely dangerousC. the skill can be mastered in a short time D. skiers never get injured15 According to Buddy Werner, the special thrill of skiing lies in the fact that it _.A. is a team sportB. teaches one to get along well in a groupC. pits the skier along against the elementsD. makes good soldiers(4) As the pace of life continues to increase , we are fast losing the art of relaxation. Once you are in the habit of rushing through life, being on the go from morning till night, it is hard to slow down. But relaxation is essential for a healthy mind and body. Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it. In fact, it is not the bad thing it is often supposed to be. A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation(动力)and give purpose to life. It is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor performance and ill health. The amount of stress a person can withstand depends very much on the individual. Some people are not afraid of stress and such characters are obviously prime material for managerial responsibilities. Others lose heart at the first signs of unusual difficulties. When exposed to stress, in whatever form, we react both chemically and physically. In fact we make choice between “flight or flight” and in more primitive days the choices made the difference between life or death. The crises we meet today are unlikely to be so extreme, but however little the stress, it involves the same response, It is when such a reaction lasts long, through continued exposure to stress, that health becomes endangered. Such serious conditions as high blood pressure and heart diseases have established links with stress. Since we cannot remove stress from our lives (it would be unwise to do so even if we could), we need to find sways to deal with it.16.People are finding less and less time for relaxing themselves because_.A. they do not know how to enjoy themselvesB. they do not believe that relaxation is important for healthC. they are traveling fast all the time D. they are becoming busier.17. According to the writer, the most important character for a good manager_.A. is not fearing stressB. knows the art of responsibilityC. has high sense of responsibilityD. has control over performance18. Which of the following statements is true?A. We can find some ways to avoid stress.B. Stress is always harmful to peopleC. It is easy to change the habit of keeping oneself busy with workD. Different people can withstand different amount of stress.19. In Paragraph 3, “such a reaction” refers back to _.A “making a choice between flight or fight”B “reaction to stress both chemically and physically”C “responding to crises quickly”D “losing heart at the sighs of difficulties”20. In the last sentence of the passage, “do so”refers to _.A“expose ourselves to stress ”B “find ways to deal with stress”C. “remove stress from our lives”D “establish links between diseases and stress”(5) Every human being, no matter what he is doing , gives off body heat. The usual problem is how to
