a “zero tolerance” approach to grammar mistakes that make people look stupid.now, truss and i disagree on what it means to have “zero tolerance”. she thinks that people who mix up basic grammar “deserve to be struck by lightning, hacked (砍) up on the spot and buried in an unmarked grave”, while i just think they deserve to be passed over for a job even if they are otherwise qualified for the position.everyone who applies for a position at either of my companies, ifixit or dozuki, takes a compulsory grammar test. if job hopefuls cant distinguish between “to” and “too”, their applications go into the bin.of course, we write for a living. if is the worlds largest online repair manual (指南), and dozuki helps companies write their own technical documentation, like paperless work instructions and step-by-step user manuals. so, it makes sense that weve made a strong strike against grammar errors.but grammar is relevant for all companies. yes, language is constantly changing, but that doesnt make grammar unimportant. good grammar is credibility, especially on the internet. and, for better or worse, people judge you if you cant tell the difference between “their” “there” and “theyre”.good grammar makes good business sense and not just when it comes to hiring writers. writing isnt in the official job description of most people in our office. still, we give our grammar test to everybody, including our salespeople, our operations staff, and our programmers.grammar signifies more than just a persons ability to remember high school english. ive found that people who make fewer mistakes on a grammar test also make fewer mistakes when they are doing something completely unrelated to writing like stocking shelves or labeling parts. it is the same with programmers. applicants who dont think writing is important are likely to think lots of other things also arent important.1. the author agrees with lynne truss in that _.a. grammar mistakes cant be tolerated b. books on grammar make people stupid c. people need to learn basic grammar d. grammar mistakes are absolutely unavoidable2. whats the authors “zero tolerance” approach to these job seekers who mix up basic grammar?a. they should be left out for a job. b. they have to correct their mistakes.c. they arent qualified for their jobs.d. they must be severely punished.3. which of the following is true of ifixit and dozuki?a. only one of them has a compulsory grammar test. b. they are companies where one learns grammar. c. grammar is quite important for their existence.d. they depend on grammar correction for a living.4. what can we learn from the text? a. companies giving grammar tests may have no good business sense.b. grammar becomes unimportant as language is constantly changing.c. a “zero tolerance” approach to grammar errors might seem a little unfair. d. people who pay attention to writing may pay attention to other things.ball her life, my mother wanted busy children. it was very important that her house should remain clean and tidy.you could turn your back for a moment in my mothers house, leave a half written letter on the diningroom table, a magazine open on the chair, and turn around to find that my mother had “put it back whereit belonged,” i explained to my wife.my wife, on one of her first visits to my mothers house, placed a packet of biscuits on an end table and went to the kitchen to fetch a drink. when she returned, she found the packet had been removed. puzzled, she set down her drink and went back to the kitchen for more biscuits only to return to find that her drink had disappeared. up to then she had guessed that everyone in my family held onto their drinks, so as not to make water rings on the end tables. now she knows better.these disappearances had a confusing effect on our family. we were all inclined to forgetfulness, and it was common for one of us, upon returning from the bathroom, to find the every signof his work in progress had disappeared suddenly. “do you remember what i was doing?” was a questionfrequently asked, but rarely answered.nowmy sister has developed a second-hand love of cleaning windows, and my brother does the cleaningin his house, perhaps to avoid having to be the one to lift his feet. i try not to think about it too much, buti have at this later time started to dust the furniture once a

in my family has stolen them 6. the underlined part in the last paragraph suggests that my sister _. a. is happy to clean windows b. loves to clean used windows c. loves to buy clean windows d. likes cleaning windows as my mother did 7. this passage mainly tells us that _. a. my mother often made us confused b. my family members had a poor memory c. my mother helped us to form a good habit d. my wife was surprised when she visited my mothercbayfield shopping coupons (赠券) 1. six hours free parkingif you spend $ 100 or more in our stores you will receive six hours of free parking. when you have

but have never practiced ever since. a man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. he can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. he can play, catch and hit a ball as well as his son. a mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins “twinkle, twinkle, little star” or remember the story of cinderella or goldilocks and the three bears.one explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows: once we have learned something, additional(额外的) learning trials(尝试)increase the length(长度) of time we will remember it.in childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. we continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as “twinkle, twinkle, little star” and childhood tales such as cinderella and goldilocks. we not only learn but overlearn.the multiplication tables(乘法口诀表)are an exception(例外) to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.the law of overlearning explains why cramming(突击学习)for an examination, though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. by cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. a little overlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary for ones future development.11. what is the main idea of paragraph i?a. people remember well what they learned in childhood. b. children have a better memory than grown-ups. c. poem reading is a good way to learn words. d. stories for children arc easy to remember.12. the author explains the law of overlearning by_. a. presenting research findingsb. setting down general rulesc. making a comparisond. using examples13. according to the author, being able to use multiplication tables is_. a. a result of overlearningb. a special case of crammingc. a skill to deal with math problemsd. a basic step towards advanced studies14. what does the word “they” in paragraph 4 refer to?a. commonly accepted rules. b. the multiplication tables. c. things easily forgotten. d. school subjects.15. what is the authors opinion on cramming?a. it leads to failure in college exams. b. its helpful only in a limited way. c. its possible to result in poor memory. d. it increases students learning interest.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。（如果所用的答题卡没有e、f、g选项，则选e涂a、b，选f涂a、c，选g涂a、d。）for over one hundred and fifty years, americans of all social classes have worn blue

germany in 1829. 17 he grew up in kentucky before moving to new york in 1847. before becoming an american citizen and moving to the west in 1853, strauss worked in his brothers dry goods business. this gave him a chance to produce his famous invention. after the gold rush of 1949, strauss decided to move to the west to seek his fortunes.strauss did not want to be a person who searched an area for minerals. instead, he knew he could make a good living by selling supplies to the miners. at first, he planned to sell sewing supplies and cloth. 18 when he heard miners complaining that their clothes were easily broken or they usually tore their pockets during mining, he decided to use a special fabric to make pants for the miners. these pants proved so popular that he quickly ran out of materials to make more.in 1873, strauss received a letter from a jewish tailor named jacob davis who had invented a process of connecting pockets with copper rivets (铆钉). this made the pants last a long time. because davis did not have the money to patent his idea, he offered to share it with strauss if strauss would agree to pay for the patent. 19 .by the time strauss died in 1902, he had made
