also possible that they will feel uncomfortable in both professional and social situations. eventually, they realize that university classes cant be the only preparation for all of thedifferent situations that arise in the working world. perhaps the best way to learn how to behave in the working world isto identify a worker you admire and observe his behavior. in doing so, you will be able to see what it is that you admire in this person. for example, you will observe how he acts in a crisis. perhaps even more importantly, you will be able to seewhat his approach to everyday situations is. while you are observing your colleague, you should be asking yourself whether his behavior is like yours and how you can learn from his responses to a variety of situations. by watching and learning from a model, you will probably beginto identify and adopt good working habits. 答案: 610.bbabb 1115.caccb 1620.ccacb 第二部分阅读理解(共两节, 满分40分)第一节(共15小题; 每小题2分, 满分30分)阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的四个选项(a、b、c和d)中, 选出最佳选项。a do you suppose darwin, one of the greatest scientists of all times, really did fools experiments?or did he do experiments that were so simple and basic that other people just thought they were foolish?sometimes, people think they already know the answer to a question or the solution to a problem. sometimes, they really do know an answer or a solution, but without thinking they are important. charles darwin didnt settle for(满足于)just thinking he knew something. and, he believed all things could be important however simple they seemed to be. suppose you drop sheets of paper that are of exactly the same size and shape. if you drop them at the same time in the same place, they will fall in the same way. now make one of the sheets of paper into a tight little ball and let it drop along with the other sheets. what happens?you have done an experiment that is so simple that you might think it couldnt be worth anything. but this simple experiment is important. it explains part of our present day understandings of physics, ideas that were worked out long ago by galileo and newton. and these understandings set aside some of ancient greek physics. scientists sometime stop to look at very simple things and to think very hard about them. even the simplest idea, which we might think is foolish, can shake the foundations of science. 【语篇概述】有些问题的答案人们已经知晓, 但人们没有想过这个问题是多么重要。伟大的科学家charles darwin常通过做实验来弄懂事情的来龙去脉。21. the passage tells us that charles darwin. a. was a great english scientistb. always liked doing the experiments that others thought difficultc. thought even the simplest thing was importantd. didnt get well with others【解析】选c。推理判断题。短文并没有说charles darwin是哪个国家的科学家, 可排除a; 由文章可知别人认为darwin的许多实验不值得做, 可把b排除; 文中没有论述darwin与别人相处的事情, 可排除d。由第三段第二句中“he believed all things could be important however simple they seemed to be”可推出答案c。22. the underlined phrase“set aside”most probably means“”. a. throw awayb. store upc. put to used. realize【解析】选a。词义猜测题。由上文可知作者认为做这个简单实验是重要的, 它解释了目前人们对于物理方面的理解。因此这些理解当然是推翻了一些希腊古典物理学的观点。由此可推知set aside与throw away同义。23. the author of the passage tries to. a. convince us that charles darwin, galileo and newton are the greatest scientists in the worldb. draw the conclusion that basic sciences are simple thingsc. prove that two sheets of paper, with the same size and shape, will fall at the same speedd. draw our attention to everyday happenings around us【解析】选d。主旨大意题。短文的最后一段点明最简单的事情都可能动摇科学的根基, 意在告诉读者要留意身边的每一件事, 哪怕它非常简单。bwhen i saw a big handmade signboard“welcome yu xin”at the airport, i knew i had found a caring family at the other side of the worldthe united states. my host mom had already decorated(装饰)my room for me. there was a doll on one side of the room, and a bookcase full of books on the otherthey had heard i loved reading. mom had also prepared a keyboard for me, since she knew that i played the piano. my life in the family did not go so well at first. because i am the only child in my family in china, i was not used to having two younger kidszachary and gracerunning around me yelling(大喊大叫)all the time. mom had a serious talk with me about this problem on a sunday afternoon. she told me, “you cant just come home from school everyday, go to your room and do your homework. you need to be a part of this family. you need to play with my kids for at least an hour. ”this rule was very annoying at first. i did not have much experience playing with children. however, the more time i spent with the kids, the more i grew to love them. we played games and read books together. i even taught them chinese. thanks to moms rule, i began to feel like i was really part of the family. mom also inspired me to live a healthier life. she got up early every morning to go running. on weekends, she took the whole family to visit parks or go camping. i did not like sports much when i was back home, but now i love to join all kinds of sports. i am healthier and more confident too. with my american family, i found joy and laughter. i learned to live with energy and optimism(乐观), thanks to the care and responsibility of my loving american parents.

may be an idea or a bit of information you come across by accident or a sudden understanding, fitting together pieces of information or working through a problem. such personal encounters are the“payoff”in education. a teacher may direct you to learning and even encourage you in it, but no teacher can make the excitement or the joy happen. thats up to you. a research paper, assigned in a course and perhaps checked at various stages by an instructor, leads you beyond classrooms, beyond the texts for classes and into a process where the joy of discovery and learning can come to you many times. preparing the research paper is an active and individual process, and an ideal learning process. it provides a structure within which you can make exciting discoveries, of knowledge and of self, which are basic to education. the research paper also gives you a chance to individualize a school assignment, to suit a piece of work to your own interests and abilities and to show others what you can do. writing a research paper is more than a classroom exercise. it is an experience in searching out, understanding and synthesizing, which forms the basis of many skills applicable to both academic and nonacademic tasks. it is, in the fullest sense, a discovery, an education. so, to produce a good research paper is both a useful and a thoroughly satisfying experience!to some, the thought of having to write an assigned number of pages, often more than ever produced before, is disconcerting. to others, the very idea of having to work independently is threatening. but there is no need to approach paper assignment with anxiety, and nobody should view the research paper as an obstacle to overcome. instead, consider it a goal to accomplish, a goal within reach if you use the help this passage can give you. 【语篇概述】本文旨在通过对research paper的介绍, 鼓励大家多做调查研究。因为在调查研究的过程中获得的愉悦是非常美好的。28. according to the writer, personal discoveries in study. a. will give one encouragement and directionb. are helpful in finding the right informationc. are the most valuable part of ones personal educationd. will help one to successfully complete school assignments【解析】选c。细节理解题。从第一段第二句“nothing can exceed the joy of discovering for yourself something that is important to you!”可知, 没有什么能够比亲自找到重要东西更使人快乐。故c项正确。29. it can be inferred from the passage that writing a research paper gives one chances. a. to fully develop ones personal abilitiesb. to practice the skills learnt in the classroomc. to prove that one is a productive writerd. to show how well one can accomplish school assignments【解析】选a。推理判断题。从第二段作者对research paper的肯定性描述可以得出答案。30. from the context, the underlined word“encounters”(para. 1)most probably means“”. a. interestsb. experiencesc. entertainmentsd. abilities【解析】选b。词义猜测题。从上文中可以看出, 作者是在描述个人获得的愉悦的经历。31. the writer thinks. a. one should explore new areas in researchb. one should trust ones knowledge and skills when doing a researchc. one should use ones ability to meet course requirementsd. one should consider research paper writing a pleasure, not a burden【解析】选d。推理判断题。从最后一段最后两句可以得知。dsuccess is often measured by the ability to overcome adversity(逆境). but it is often the belief of others that gives us the courage(勇气)to try. j. k. rowling, author of the harry potter book series, began writing at age 6. her good friendsean became the first person to encourage her and help her build the confidence that one day she would be a very good writer. “he was the first person with whom i really discussed my serious ambition(志向)to be a writer. he was also the only person who thought i was bound to(注定)be a success at it, which meant much more to me than i ever told him at the time. ”though there were many difficulties, rowling continued her writing, particularly fantasy stories. but it wasnt until 1990 that she first came up with the idea about harry potter. as she recalled(回忆), it was on a long train journey from london to manchester that“the idea of harry potter imply fell into my head. to my great disappointment, i didnt have a pen with me, and i was too shy to ask anybody if i could borrow one. i think, now, that this was probably a good thing, because i simply sat and thought, for four(delayed train)hours, and all the details came up in my brain, and this thin, black-haired, be-spectacled(戴眼镜的)boy who didnt know he was a wizard became more and more real to me. ”that same year, her mother died after a ten-year fight with serious diseases, which deeply affected her writing. she went on to marry and had a daughter, but separated from her husband shortly afterwards. during this time, rowling was diagnosed with depression(诊断患有抑郁症). unemployed, she finished her first novel in area cafs, where she could get her daughter to fall asleep. after being refused by 12 publishing houses, the first harry potter novel was sold
