thousands of years, mankind has produced plants and animals to create more desired and useful plants and animals. for example, modern com has been produced to such a large size that it is no longer able to reproduce without mans assistance. modern dairy cows produce too much milk and if they are not often emptied of milk, they could leak, burst, become infected, and possibly die. besides, most dogs raised by people can not survive in the wild even with special training.since natural evolution is extremely slow and mankinds selective production programs only take a few generations to produce a completely new species, natural evolution has already taken a back seat to mankinds production programs. in addition, mankind has successfully killed off several species all together. for example, there are no more european wolves in existence and mammoths (猛犸象) probably died out because of mankind. even certain diseases have been permanently got rid of from the planet, and dozens of other diseases will soon be too. again, natural evolution did it cause most of the destruction during mans rule of the world.currently, scientists are creating new species with desired characteristics in the lab significantly faster than natural evolution creates new species. in a single generation, new species can be created and destroyed by mankind, while natural evolution could take thousands of years to do the same but only accidentally. scientists are even able to replace defective (有缺陷的) or damaged genes with different genes to attempt to cure genetic defects. this is something that natural evolution could possibly never correct.eventually scientists will even be able to improve the quality of people. for example, imagine not only correcting your eyesight with gene treatment, but also ensuring that all of your children do not receive your old genes of poor eyesight too. scientists will one day be able to improve the memory and intelligence of your children, so that they will do better in school and achieve more in life. doctors and scientists will be able to customize (订制) babies before they are born just like picking options at a car store.1.according to the first paragraph,_ .a. man-made evolution has improved all speciesb. man-made evolution has weakened some speciesc man-made evolution can make up for all natural lossesd. natural evolution wont happen without mans assistance2. what does the underlined part “taken a back seat to” in paragraph 2 mean?a. become powerful assistance to. b. become a huge barrier to.c speeded up the process of. d. played a less important role than.3. what does the third paragraph mainly talk about?a. why natural evolution happens so slowly.b. the way scientists adopt to have genetic defects repaired.c. the advantages of man-made evolution over natural evolution.d. how scientists make use of man-made evolution to create new species.参考答案1-3bdc 阅读理解。阅读下列短文, 从给的四个选项 (a、b、c和d) 中, 选出最佳选项。spring is coming, and it is time for those about to graduate to look for jobs. competition is tough, so job seekers must carefully consider their personal choices. whatever we are wearing, our family and friends may accept us, but the workplace may not. a high school newspaper editor said it is unfair for companies to discourage visible tattoos(纹身), nose rings, or certain dress styles. it is true you cant judge a book by its cover, yet people do “cover” themselves in order to convey(传递)certain messages. what we wear, including tattoos and nose rings, is an expression of who we are. just as people convey messages about themselves with their appearances, so do companies. dress standards exist in the business world for a number of reasons, but the main concern is often about what customers accept. others may say how to dress is a matter of personal freedom, but for businesses it is more about whether to make or lose money. most employers do care about the personal appearances of their employees(雇员)，because those people represent the companies to their customer.as a hiring manager i am paid to choose the people who would make the best impression on our customers. there are plenty of wellqualified candidates, so it is not wrong to reject someone who might disappoint my customers. even though i am openminded, i cant expect all our customers are.there is nobody to blame but yourself if your set of choices does not match that of your preferred employer. no company should have to change to satisfy a candidate simply because he or she is unwilling to respect its standards, as long as its standards are legal.57which of the following is the newspaper editors opinion according to paragraph 2? apeoples appearances carry messages about themselves.bcustomers choices influence dress standards in companies.ccandidates with tattoos or nose rings should be fairly treated.dstrange dress styles should not be encouraged in the workplace.58what can be inferred from the text? acandidates have to wear

important a firms leaders say speed is to their competitive (竞争的) strategy（策略）and how fast the company actually moves. the difference is important regardless of industry and company size. companies fearful or losing their competitive advantage spend much time and money looking for ways to pick up the speed.in our study of 343 businesses, the companies that chose to go, go, go to try to gain an edge ended with lower sales and operating incomes than those that paused at key moments to make sure they were on the right track, whats more, the firms that “slowed down to speed up “improved their top and bottom lines ,averaging 40% higher sales and 52% higher operating incomes over a three-years period.how did they disobey the laws of business physics, taking more time than competitors yet performing better ? they thought differently about what “slower “and “faster” mean. firms sometimes fail to understand the difference between operation speed (moving quickly ) and strategic speed (reducing the time it takes to deliver value ). simply increasing the speed of production, for example , may be one way to try to reduce the speed difference . but that often leads to reduced v
