lost his job a few months ago. he has good heart, but always feared applying for a new job. one day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview. his appointment was at 10 am and it was already 8:30. while waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed ot be interviewed, he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre of his car. obviously there was something wrong with the car. jimmy immediately went up to lend him a hand. when jimmy finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. jimmy said there was no need to pay him; he just helped someone in need, and he had to rush for an interview. then the old man said, “well, i could take you to the office for your interview. its the least i could do. please. i insist.” jimmy agreed. upon arrival, jimmy found a long line of applications waiting to be interviewed. jimmy still had some grease on him after the car repair, but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. one by one, the applicants left the interviewers office with disappointed look on their faces. finally his name was called. the interviewer was sitting on a large chair facing the office window. rocking the chair back and forth, he asked, “do you really need to be interviewed?” jimmys heart sank. “with the way i look now, how could i possibly pass this interview?” he thought to himself. then the interviewer turned the chair and to jimmys surprise, it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning. it turned out he was the general manager of the company. “sorry i had to keep you waiting, but i was pretty sure i made the right decision to have you as part of our workforce before you even stepped into the office. i just know youd be a trustworthy worker.

are binoculars （ 双目望远镜） , a camera, some kind of system for keeping notes, and maybe a back pack birders often keep lists of the birds they see along with notes about the habits there is some great bird log software that will let you keep records on your computer for more details on choosing binoculars see our binocular -optics pageclothesif you are walking through a wooded area just wear clothes you would wear on any hike or field trip you are best off wearing clothes with dull colors that mix into the background greens, browns, and grays are good avoid fabrics that rustle（沙沙响） easily depending on the birds you are watching you may want to get rain gear, rubber boots and warm clothing for birds such as owls that you might look for in the evening a strong flashlight is also handychoosing a bird field guidetake a good field guide to identify birds look for clear color pictures that make it easy to recognize one bird from another next to each picture should be detailed descriptions of each birds anatomy, habits, and what it eats the guide should have information about what habitat each species uses many guides have maps showing the range of different birds along with their migration patterns where and when to see birdslearning the habitats of birds in your area will increase the number of birds you see, and make your birding more enjoyable if you know that meadow larks are likely to be in open grassy areas, and dippers are forage along stream beds, you may be looking for them if you are in those types of habitats edge areas where different types of habitats meet will likely have more species in them you are more likely to see specific birds at certain times of the day for example songbirds are easier to see two to three hours after dawn, or just before sunset this is when songbirds are most actively feeding many small birds will be silent or even hidden during the rest of the day after sunup is the best time to see eagles and hawks visibility is best for hunting at this time, and they can soar on the thermal currents from the warmed air birds like owls are more likely to be seen in the evening many shorebirds and waders rest at high tide and feed when the water rises or fallscan use less expensive equipment, then you need for high quality prints. photographing birds in flightphotographing birds in flight can be fun many digital cameras have a tracking function with these you focus on the bird, and then as you track it the lens will keep focus use your yardchoose an open area where the birds will get direct sunlight, showing off their magnificent colors try using propsbirds will often land on a stick or post near a seed feeder before going to the feeder the background was just an out of focus fence but you can use anything you want for a background, and then wait for a bird to perch.46. the main purpose of the passage is to .a. attract more people to photograph birdsb. call on people to set some comfort zones for birdsc. help birders learn how to identify and understand birdsd. inform birders of the results of a scientific research on birds47clothes in are highly recommended when you are going bird watchinga. red b. brown c. yellow d. blue48 are likely to be seen at 7 in the morninga . owls b. songbirds c. shorebirds d. larks49which of the following statement is true according to the passage?a. a flashlight will come in handy when you look for owlsb. it will be wise for birders to hire a guide for themselves c. birders have to bring some notebooks to keep records of birds habitsd. a stick in the yard may scares birds off when you are photographing themc everybody cheats. whether its the taxi driver who tricks a visitor and takes them the long way round, or the shop assistant who doesnt give the correct change, or the police officer who accepts a bribe (贿赂) everybodys at it. cheats in the nest include the scientist whose research was based on fake data, the game show competitors who worked with a friend in the audience or win a million pounds, and the doctor who made up his qualifications and wasnt really a doctor at all. everybody cheats; nobodys playing the game. is cheating acceptable, a natural way of surviving and being successful? or is it something that should be frowned on, and young people discouraged from doing? if its the latter how can we explain to children why so many bend the rules?take sport for example. the word cup was filled with cheating. whether diving, pretending to be hurt or denying a handball, footballers will do anything for a free kick or a penalty shot. france striker henry denied cheating to win the free kick which led to his sides second goal in their 3 1 victory over spain. many footballers, however, are often putting it on. whatever the nationality theres one common ploy: the player rolls over holding their leg, ankle or head seeming to be in great pain. as a result a yellow card and / or free kick is given for the foul and then, a few seconds later, the player is up and about as if nothing had happened ! the ref (裁判) may be taken in by it but youngsters watching the game arent. they also see their heroes getting away with it.of course its not just football. in 1998 the tour de france, the worlds greatest cycling event, was hit by a drug taking scandal (丑闻). the 40 bottles of forbidden drugs found with the fustian team caused a massive investigation that almost caused the tour to be abandoned. one rider, veronique, was banned for 9 months. he claimed: “you have cheats in sport, just as you do in business there will always be people trying to take a short cut. at least were not turning a blind eye to the problem, which other sports are.”is it all unavoidable? theres huge pressure on all athletes to perform for their fans and for their sponsors. its success, money and power that rule professional sport rather than an honest at tempt to do the best one can.meanwhile companies around the world are losing billions of dollars to fake products. from cut price cds and dvds to sportswear, cheap fake products are everywhere. it has become socially acceptable to buy fake gucci bags and illegal copies of films. if parents are doing this, their children will follow. so perhaps its not surprising that around the world more pupils than ever are caught cheating during exams. in one case missing exam papers were put up for sale on the internet. in another, widespread cheating took place by pupils using their mobile phones to receive tested answers. they blame the pressure put on them to do well in exams. it doesnt help that their role models are also cheats. surely we cant complain when were setting such a bad example. 50according to the passage, in which way can a game show player cheat?aby taking an indirect way.bby gaining aid from a friend.cby taking forbidden drugs.dby selling fake products.51the phrase “be frowned on”(paragraph 2) most probably means .ato be disapproved ofbto be pushed forwardcto be taken the place ofdto be stuck with52the writers suppose for writing this passage is to .aexplain why people in almost every field cheatbcomplain about cheats in school educationcpersuade young people not to cheat in examsdblame the society for tolerating cheats53the writer mentions the example of the world cup in paragraph 3 in order to .ashow cheating is a common phenomenon nowadaysbdiscuss the relationship between sport and cheatingcexplore the nature of cheating in important eventsdwarn coaches and athletes of the danger of cheating54which of the following is the main idea of the passage?aexams are not a good way of testing children.bchildren are natural cheats.cif adults cheat, children will cheat too.deveryone including children cheats.dwhen i left home for college, i sought to escape the limited world of farmers, small towns, and country life. i long for the excitement of the city, for the fast pace that rural life lacked, for adventure beyond the horizon. i dreamed of exploring the city, living within a new culture and landscape, and becoming part of the pulse of an urban jungle.yet some of my best times were driving home, leaving the city behind and slipping back into the valley. as city life disappeared and traffic thinned, i could see the faces of the other drivers relax. then, around a bend in the highway, the grassland of the valley would come into being, offering a 6 of gentle rolling hills. the land seemed permanent. i felt as if i had stepped back in time. i took comfort in the stability of the valley. driving through small farm communities, i imagined t
