l3-year-old spencer goldstein, after collecting hundreds of pieces of baseball equipment for kids who can not afford to buy their own. spencer collected the bats, balls, gloves, helmets and masks for his mitzvah(德行)project, which is a community service project that many jewish kids do around their bar or bat mitzvahs(成人礼). a bar mitzvah is a ceremony for a boy while a bat mitzvah is intended for a girl. the ceremony means that you are old enough to take on a grown-ups responsibilities. spencer got the idea for his mitzvah project after seeing the ugandan national team at last years little league world series. some of the ugandan players didnt even have their own gloves. and spencers donations are going to a group called “pitch for baseball”a group that gives baseball equipment to kids in low-income communities around the world. mollie schwartz and mia schwartz also came up with a sports-related mitzvah project. the money they raised went to the israel sport center for the disabled. they raised at least $9,000enough to pay for at least three wheelchairs made for playing basketball. in massachusetts, abigail miller decided to collect musical instruments for her mitzvah project. the instruments abigail collected were then donated to groups that distribute them to kids who cant afford to buy them. “i want to make sure everybody can get the chance to enjoy music like i do,” abigail said. abigail collected more than three-dozen instrumentswind instruments, string instruments, keyboards, and even a drum set. whether its playing sports, playing music or something else, kids such as spencer, mollie, mia and abigail are using their mitzvah projects to change the world for the better. “they learned about generosity, said mollies mother, loft schwartz, “and the power to make things happen”. 26. how did spencer feel after collecting some baseball equipment? a. tired. b. proud. c. confident. d. upset. 27. spencer planned to begin to collect baseball equipment . a. when he

d. honesty.b if you saw another kid ride her bike too fast around a corner and fall down, you might ride your bike more slowly on that turn. yes, we humans are very sensitive to others mistakes. and the same is true for other animals. animals mess up all the time. they might eat poisonous leaves, fall off a tree or let their prey(猎物) slip away. by watching others fail, an animal can avoid making the same mistakes, thus improving its chance of survival. scientists suspected that one part of the brain helps animals process information about others errors. cells in that part appear to become more active when a person sees someone else making a mistake. but researchers didnt know whether individual cells in this part of the brain play different roles in detecting errors. to investigate the brains response to errors in more detail, the researchers taught a game to two macaques, a type of monkey. one monkey could press a yellow or green button while the other watched. if the first monkey pressed the right button, the team gave both animals a treat. every couple of rounds, the two monkeys switched roles. meanwhile, the scientists monitored individual cells in the animals brains. when the first monkey messed up the game by pressing the wrong button, a group of cells in the second monkeys brain fired. but if the second monkey also made the wrong choice during its turn, some of the cells in that group didnt respond. those unresponsive cells reacted specifically to mistakes made by others, not to the monkeys own mistakes. scientists believe other parts of the brain also might help people process information about anothers errors. “you start to think about this other person and see things from his angle.” ellen de bruijn told science news. she studies the brain at the university of leiden in the netherlands.31. according to paragraph l, animals ability to learn from others mistakes . a. used to be ignored by humans b. helps them to survive better c. is being lost because of humans d. ensures that they will never fail32. the underlined word “detecting” in paragraph 2 probably means “ ”. a. correcting b. making c. drawing d. sensing33. from the game the scientists taught to two macaques, we can see . a. animals can avoid the same mistakes b. which part of the brain is more active c. how the brain responds to mistakes d. how the brain processes information34. in the experiment mentioned, those unresponsive cells are only sensitive to . a. others mistakes b. the same buttons c. ones own mistakes d. the monkeys brain35. whats the main idea of the passage? a. animals can learn from mistakes like human beings. b. an interesting experiment by scientists surprised us. c. monkeys can avoid making mistakes by learning from us. d. the brain cells are always sensitive to others information.c while you may be doing everything right, ignoring just one or two steps in the process may keep you from getting a job, especially in this fierce market. here is a checklist that covers some of the major links in the job-search chain. the resume - make sure it is up-to-date and tailored to the types of jobs you are seeking for. have someone else look at your resume. if you cannot afford a career coach, give your resume to friends or family members to scrutinize. have copies of your resume printed so that you are ready to hand them out at interviews. covering letters - maybe youve set up a few basic styles in advance, but thats not enough. each covering letter should be designed to suit the job for which you are applying. the wardrobe(衣橱) - check your wardrobe to ensure that you have the appropriate professional dress, including shoes, ready for interviews. networking - dont isolate yourself from others for days. network through e-mail messages, phone calls, appointments and meetings keep you in touch with the outside world and prevent you from becoming depressed. application - a glance at huge online job sites isnt usually the best way to find a job. you are more likely to succeed through the people you know via networking. the followup - it is quite common to apply for a job and never hear back from the company. take measures, such as following up with a phone call a week or so after you apply. if you know someone at the company, check whether that person will put in a good word for you. interviews - if youve got plenty of interviews but no return calls or job offers, take a look at your interviewing skills. this is one area where investing in a career coach may pay off. but if you cant afford one, try to find a job group or service that conducts free mock(模拟) interviews. support systems - finally, recognize that looking for a job is rather difficult. even at the best of times, a job hunt is often about rejection, and that can be hard to endure. staying in touch with family, friends, professional networks and fellow job seekers can help you to maintain a positive attitude and a sense of perspective.36. the authors purpose of writing this text is to _. a. give people some tips on searching for jobs b. suggest graduates should find suitable jobs c. tell people how to improve their interview skills d. teach people how to get ready for an interview37. the underlined word “scrutinize” in paragraph 2 can be replaced by _. a. use b. check c. rewrite d. criticize38. which of the following methods is wrong according to the text? a. you should have your resume read by your friends after finishing it. b. you should create different covering letters for the different jobs you apply for. c. you should wear appropriate professional clothes and shoes for the interview. d. searching online is the most effective way to look for a job.39. what should you do if you dont receive any calls after lots of interviews? a. go to the managers offices to find out why. b. ask a fellow job seeker to help you. c. rewrite your resume as soon as possible. d. carefully review your interviewing skills.40. it is implied in the text that_. a. your social network may help you a lot in your job hunt b. the interview is the most difficult step for interviewees c. a career coach often offers free mock interviews to interviewees d. people often pay no attention to writing their resumed look at the keyboard of any standard typewriter or computer. “q”, “w”, “e”, “r”, “t” and “y” are the first six letters. who decided on this arrangement of the letters? and why? people tried for centuries to invent the typewriter. in 1714 in england, henry mill filed a patent for a machine called an artificial machine or method for the impressing or transcribing of letters, singly or progressively one after another, as in writing. with this machine, whatever writing can be shown on paper or parchment, so neat and exact as not to be distinguished from print. that machine probably didnt sell because no one could remember its name! the first practical typewriter was patented in the united states in 1868 by christopher latham sholes. his machine was known as the type-writer. it had a movable carriage, a lever for turning paper from line to line, and a keyboard on which the letters were arranged in alphabetical order. but sholes had a problem. on his first model, his “abc” key arrangement caused the keys to jam when the typist worked quickly. sholes didnt know how to keep the keys from sticking, so his solution was to keep the typist from typing too fast. sholes asked his brother-in-law to rearrange the keyboard so that the commonest letters were not so close together and the type bars would come from opposite directions. thus they would not clash together and jam the machine. the new arrangement was the qwerty arrangement typists use today. of course, sholes claimed that the new arrangement was scientific and would add speed and efficiency. the only efficiency it added was to slow the typist down, since almost any word in the english language required the typists fingers to cover more distance on the keyboard. the advantages of the typewriter outweighed the disadvantages of the keyboard. typists memorized the crazy letter arrangement, and the typewriter became a huge success. by the time typists had memorized the new arrangement of letters and built their speed, typewriter technology had improved, and the keys didnt stick as badly as they had at first.41. who invented the first practical typewriter? a. henry mill b. sholes brother-in-law c. christopher latham sholes d. albert einstein42. the author thinks the machine invented by henry mill could not be sold because_. a. it was difficult for people to accept new things b. there were great disadvantages of the keyboard c. the name of the machine was too long d. the writing could not be distinguished from print43. sholes decided the qwerty arrangement of the keyboard in order to_. a. arrange the letters in alphabetical order b. solve the problem of the keys jamming c. cause the keys to jam when the typist worked quickly d. compete with “abc” key arrangement44. we can infer that the qwerty arrangement of the keyboard_. a. keeps the typist from typing too fast b. adds speed and efficiency of typists c. is easy for typists to memorize d. is the most scientific arrangement45. which of the following can be the best title of the passage? a. the story of christopher latham sholes b. the arrangement of the letters on keyboard c. how to invent the typewriter d. the first practical typewriter第二节 信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读以下英国牛津大学出版社的图书信息,并按要求匹配信息。请在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑。abook titlethe
