每小题2分，满分40分） october 15th is global handwashing day. activities are planned in more than twenty countries to get millions of people in the developing world to wash their hands with soap.experts say people around the world wash their hands but very few use soap at socalled critical moments. these include after using the toilet，after cleaning a baby and before touching food.global handwashing day is the idea of the public private partnership for handwashing with soap. the goal，they say，is to create a culture of handwashing with soap. the organizers say all soaps are equally effective at removing diseasecausing germs (细菌)they say the correct way to wash is to wet your hands with a small amount of water and cover them with soap. rub it into all areas，including under the fingernails. then，wash well under running water. finally，dry your hands with a clean cloth.the partnership says soap is important because it increases the time that people spend washing. soap also helps to break up the dirt that holds most of the germs. and it usually leaves a pleasant smell，which increases the chances that people will wash again.it also says that washing hands with soap before eating and after using the toilet could save more lives than any medicine. it could help reduce cases of diarrhea (痢疾)，which is the second leading cause of child deaths，killing more than one and a half million children a year，by almost half.1 what does the author intend to tell us in the passage?ato keep healthy by washing hands.bto wash hands with soap.cto take action to wash hands.dto wash hands often.2 which of the following is the right way to wash hands?awashing hands well under running water.bcovering hands with soap.cdrying hands.drubbing hands with soap.ewetting hands.aacbed bedabccacbde debdac3 which fact cant explain why soap is important?ait gives people a longer handwashing time.bit helps to remove a lot of germs from hands.cit attracts people to do more handwashing.dit gets all people into the habit of washing hands.4according to the last paragraph，diarrhea is a disease that_akills half of the kids in the developing countries a yearbcauses the greatest number of child deathsccan be prevented to some degree by washing hands with soapdcant be cured without washing hands many people think that listening is a passive business. it is just the opposite. listening well is an active exercise of our attention and hard work. it is because they do not realize this, or because they are not willing to do the work, that most people do not listen well. listening well also requires total concentration upon someone else. an essential part of listening well is the rule known as bracketing. bracketing includes the temporary giving up or setting aside of your own prejudices and desires, to experience as far as possible someone elses world from the inside, stepping into his or her shoes. moreover, since listening well involves bracketing, it also involves a temporary acceptance of the other person. sensing this acceptance, the speaker will seem quite willing to open up the inner part of his or her mind to the listener. true communication is under way and the energy required for listening well is so great that it can be accomplished only by the will to extend oneself for mutual growth. most of the time we lack this energy. even though we may feel in our business dealings or social relationships that we are listening well, what we are usually doing is listening selectively. often we have a prepared list in mind and wonder, as we listen, how we can achieve certain desired results to get the conversation over as quickly as possible or redirected in ways more satisfactory to us. many of us are far more interested in talking than in listening, or we simply refuse to listen to what we dont want to hear. it wasnt until toward the end of my doctor career that i have found the knowledge that one is being truly listened to is frequently therapeutic(有疗效的) in about a quarter of the patients i saw, surprising improvement was shown during the first few months of psychotherapy(心理疗法), before any of the roots of problems had been uncovered or explained. there are several reasons for this phenomenon, but chief among them, i believe, was the patients sense that he or she was being truly listened to, often for the first time in years, and for some, perhaps for the first time ever.5the phrase “stepping into his or her shoes” in paragraph 2 probably means _.a. preparing a topic list firstb. focusing on ones own mindc. directing the talk to the desired resultsd. experiencing the speakers inside world6what is mainly discussed in paragraph 2?a. how to listen well.b. what to listen to.c. benefits of listening.d. problems in listening7according to the author, in communication people tend to _.a. listen activelyb. listen purposefullyc. set aside their prejudicesd. open up their inner mind8according to the author, the patients improved mainly because _.a. they were taken good care of.b. they knew the roots of problemsc. they had partners to talk to.d. they knew they were truly listened to going green seems to be fad(时尚)for a lot of people these days. whether that is good or bad, we cant really say, but for the tow of us, going green is not a fad but a lifestyle. on april22, 2011, we decided to go green every single day for an entire year. this meant doing 365 different green things, and it also meant challenging ourselves to go green beyond easy things. rather than recycle and reduce our energy, we had to think of 365 different green things to do and this was no easy task. with the idea of going green every single day for a year, our green year started. my life and i decided to educate people about how they could go green in their lives and hoped we could show people all the green things that could be done to help the environment. we wanted to push the message that every little bit helps. over the course of our green year, we completely changed our lifestyle. we now shop at organic(有机的)stores. we consume less meat, choosing green food. we have greatly reduced our buying we dont need. we have given away half of what we owned through websites. our home is kept clean by vinegar and lemon juice, with no chemical cleaners. we make our own butter, enjoying the smell of home-made fresh bread. in our home office anyone caught doing something ungreen might be punished. our minds have been changed by our green year. we are grateful for the chance to have been able to go green and educate others.

west face a cold prospect of losing their jobs as a global recession(衰退) starts to bite. for colleagues in the east, the pain is more likely to come through a pay cut. human resource experts say cultural differences explain why asian companies try harder to preserve jobs in difficult times, which will prevent unemployment and may help asian economies survive at a time of slowing exports. the east asian attitude may also make it easier for companies to recover quickly from the economic downturn since they will not need to rehire or train new staff, but build up a more loyal and devoted group. in the confucian mindset(儒家思想), the right thing to do is to share the burden（负担）, which is the sense of collective responsibility. while in the west, its more about individual survival, said michael benoliel, associate professor of organizational behavior at singapore management university (smu). in contrast, local western companies from general motors to goldman sachs plan to lay off workers by the thousands, but at the asian units of western multinationals or western units of asian groups, job cuts will probably be less severe. japans jobless rate was 4 percent in september, up from 3.8 percent in january, while hong kongs was flat at 3.4 percent. but us unemployment is expected to have jumped to 6.3 percent last month from below 5 percent in january. experts say that while there are noticeable differences in labor practices in east and west, the gap will narrow as more firms become more multinational and competition forces firms to adopt the best practices of rivals(对手) from abroad.17the underlined word prospect in the first paragraph most probably means _.a. future b. scenec. weather d. place18compared with job cuts, pay cuts can bring the following benefits except that _.a. its helpful to the economy recoveryb. it can form a team working harder and more loyallyc. it will keep the experienced and skilled workersd. it costs the company less money to survive19according to michael benoliel, the confucian mindset focuses on _.a. human rightsb. personal profitsc. sharing responsibilityd. individual survival20the passage mainly tells us _.a. the difficulties all the companies around the world will meet with todayb. the different labor solutions of asian and western in global recessionc. the ways to cut down the cost of the companies in economic downturnd. the cultural differences between eastern and western world at present三、完形填空（共20小题, 每小题1.5分，满分30分） every morning at eleven, a bright new car drove through the central park in new
