she was a present. people find all sorts of excuses for abandoning an animal. and she was one of the most beautiful dogs i had ever seen. i called her goldie. if i had known what was going to happen i would have given her a more creative name. she was so unsettled during those first few days. she hardly ate anything and had such an air of sadness about her. there was nothing i could do to make her happy, it seemed. heaven knows what had happened to her at her previous owners. but eventually at the end of the first week she calmed down. always by my side, whether we were out on one of our long walks or sitting by the fire. thats why it was such a shock when she pulled away from me one day when we were out for a walk. we were a long way from home, when she started barking and getting very restless. eventually i couldnt hold her any longer and she raced off down the road towards a farmhouse in the distance as fast as she could. by the time i reached the farm i was very tired and upset with goldie. but when i saw her licking (舔) the four puppies (幼犬) i started to feel sympathy towards them. we didnt know what had happened to her, said the woman at the door. i took her for a walk one day, soon after the puppies were born, and she just disappeared. she must have tried to come back to them and got lost, added a boy from behind her. i must admit i do miss goldie, but ive got nugget now, and she looks just like her mother. and ive learnt a good lesson: not to judge people.56. how did the author feel about goldie when goldie came to the house? a. annoyed. b. upset. c. shocked. d. sympathetic.57. in her first few days at the authors house, goldie . a. ate a little b. sat by the fire c. felt worried d. was angry 58. goldie rushed off to a farmhouse one day because she . a. wanted to leave the author b. found her way to her old home c. saw her puppies d. heard familiar barkings 59. the passage is organized in order of . a. importance b. complexity c. time d. effectiveness bopen letter to an editor i had an interesting conversation with a reporter recently-one who works for you. in fact, hes one of your best reporters. he wants to leave. your reporter gave me a copy of his resume (简历) and photocopies of six stories that he wrote for you. the headlines showed you played them proudly. with great enthusiasm, he talked about how he finds issues (问题), approaches them, and writes about them, which tells me he is one of your best. im sure you would hate to lose him. surprisingly, your reporter is not unhappy. in fact, he told me he really likes his job. he has a great assignment (分工), and said you run a great paper. it would be easy for you to keep him, he said. he knows that the paper values him. he appreciates the responsibility youve given him, takes ownership of his profession, and enjoys his freedom. so why is he looking for a way out? he talked to me because he wants his editors to demand so much more of him. he wants to be pushed, challenged, coached to new heights. the reporter believes that good stories spring from good questions, but his editors usually ask how long the story will be, when it will be in, where it can play, and what the budget is.he longs for conversations with an editor who will help him turn his good ideas into great ones. he wants someone to get excited about what hes doing and to help him turn his story idea upside down and inside out, exploring the best ways to report it. he wants to be more valuable for your paper. thats what you want for him, too, isnt it? so your reporter has set me thinking. our best hope in keeping our best reporters, copy editors, photographers, artists-everyone-is to work harder to make sure they get the help they are demanding to reach their potential. if we cant do it, theyll find someone who can.60. what does the writer think of the reporter? a. ambitious. b. proud. c. optimistic. d. imaginative.61. what does the reporter want most from his editors in their talks? a. helping him to find issues. b. improving his good ideas. c. finding the news value of his stories. d. giving him financial support.62. who probably wrote the letter? a. a reporter. b. a reader. c. an editor. d. an artist.63. the letter aims to remind editors that they should _ a. give more freedom to their reporters b. keep their best reporters at all costsc. appreciate their reporters working styles and attitudes d. be aware of their reporters professional development cpacing and pausingsara tried to befriend her old friend steves new wife, but betty never seemed to have anything to say. while sara felt betty didnt hold up her end of the conversation, betty complained to steve that sara never gave her a chance to talk. the problem had to do with expectations about pacing and pausing.conversation is a turn-taking game. when our habits are similar, theres no problem. but if our habits are different, you may start to talk before im finished or fail to take your turn when im finished. thats what was happening with betty and sara.it may not be coincidental that betty, who expected relatively longer pauses between turns, is british, and sara, who expected relatively shorter pauses, is american. betty often felt interrupted by sara. but betty herself became an interrupter and found herself doing most of the talking when she met a visitor from finland. and sara had a hard time cutting in on some speakers from latin america or israel. the general phenomenon, then, is that the small conversation techniques, like pacing and pausing, lead people to draw conclusions not about conversational style but about personality and abilities. these habitual differences are often the basis for dangerous stereotyping (思维定式). and these social phenomena can have very personal consequences. for example, a woman from the southwestern part of the us went to live in an eastern city to take up a job in personnel. when the personnel department got together for meetings, she kept searching for the right time to break in-and never found it. although back home she was considered outgoing and confident, in washington she was viewed as shy and retiring. when she was evaluated at the end of the year, she was told to take a training course because of her inability to speak up. thats why slight differences in conversational style-tiny little things like microseconds of pause-can have a great effect on ones life. the result in this case was a judgment of psychological problems-even in the mind of the woman herself, who really wondered what was wrong with her and registered for assertiveness training.64. what did sara think of betty when talking with her? a. betty was an interrupter. b. betty was talkative. c. betty paid no attention to sara. d. betty did not take her turn.65. according to the passage, who are likely to expect the shortest pauses between turns? a. the british. b. the finns. c. americans. d. israelis.66. we can learn from the passage that _. a. ones inability to speak up is culturally determined sometimes b. one should receive training to build up ones confidence c. communication breakdown results from short pauses and fast pacingd. women are unfavorably stereotyped in eastern cities of the us67. the underlined word assertiveness in the last paragraph probably means _. a. being able to increase ones power b. being willing to speak ones mindc. being quick to express ones ideas confidently d. being ready to make ones own judgmentdthe cost of higher education individuals (个人) should pay for their higher education. a university education is of huge and direct benefit to the individual. graduates earn more than non-graduates. meanwhile, social mobility is ever more dependent on having a degree. however, only some people have it. so the individual, not the taxpayers, should pay for it. there are pressing calls on the resources (资源) of the government. using taxpayers money to help a small number of people to earn high incomes in the future is not one of them. full government funding (资助) is not very good for universities. adam smith worked in a scottish university whose teachers lived off student fees. he knew and looked down upon 18th-century oxford, where the academics lived comfortably off the income received from the government. guaranteed salaries, smith argued, were the enemy of hard work; and when the academics were lazy and incompetent, the students were similarly lazy. if students have to pay for their education, they not only work harder, but also demand more from their teachers. and their teachers have to keep them satisfied. if that means taking teaching seriously, and giving less time to th
