farmers, and there was never enough to eat. frank decided he did not want to be farmer. he took a short business course, and went to work as a salesman in a large city.woolworth realized he had a natural skill for showing goods to attract peoples interest, but he soon learned something more important. one day his boss told him to sell some odds and ends (小商品 ) for as much as he could get. frank put all these things on one table with a sign which said five cents each. people fought and pushed to buy the things and the table was soon cleared.soon afterwards, woolworth opened his own store., selling goods at five and ten cents. but he had another lesson to learn before he became successful. that is, if you want to make money by selling low-price goods, you have to buy them in large quantities directly from the factories. once, for example, woolworth went to germany and placed an order for knives. the order was so large that the factory had to keep running 24 hours a day for a whole year. in this way, the price of the knives was cut down by half.by 1919, woolworth had over 1000 stores in the us and canada, and opened his first store in london. he made many millions and his name became famous throughout the world. he always run his business according to strict rules, of which the most important was: “ the customer is always right.”21. frank took a short business course in order to _. a. earn more money for his family b. learn something from a salesman c. get away from the farm d. get enough to eat.22. frank sold the odds and ends quickly because _. a. he knew how to get people to buy his goods. b. he cut down the price by half c. he had put the goods on a table in a very nice way. d. the sign he put on the table was well designed.23. the price of the knives was cut down by half because _. a. the factory workers worked 24 hours a day. b. knives were ordered in large quantities directly from the factory. c. the knives were made in germany, where labour (劳动力) was cheap. d. the knives were produced in one factory.24. _ make woolworth a world-famous man. a. his business skills and his wealth. b. the low price of the goods he sold. c. his trip to germany and his huge order of knives. d. his natural skill for showing things.bthe brown bear my wife laura and i were on the beach, with three of our children, taking pictures of shore birds near our home in alaska when we spotted a bear. the bear was thin and small, moving aimlessly. just a few minutes later, i heard my daughter shouting, “dad! the bear is right behind us!” an agreesive bear will usually rush forward to frighten away its enemy but would suddenly stop at the last minute. this one was silent and its ears pinned back- the sign (迹象) of an animal that is going in for the kill. and it was a cold april day. the bear behaved abnormally, probably because of hunger.i held my camera tripod (三脚架) in both hands to form a barrier as the bear rushed into me. its huge head was level with my chest and shoulders, and the tripod stuck across its mouth. it bit down and i found myself supporting its weight. i knew i would not be able to hold it for long.even so, this was a fight i had to win: i was all that stood between the bear and my family, who would stand little chance of running faster than a brown bear.the bear hit at the camera, cutting it off the tripod. i raised my left arm to protect my face; the beast held tightly on the tripod and pressed it into my side. my arm could not move, and i sensed that my bones were going to break.drawing back my free hand, i struck the bear as hard as i could for five to six times. the bear opened its mouth and i grasped its fur, trying to push it away. i was actually wrestling (扭打) with the bear at this point. then, as suddenly as it had begun, the fight ended. the bear moved back toward the forest, before returning for another attack- the first time i felf panic.apparently satisfied that we caused no further threat, the bear moved off, destroying a fence as it went. my arm was injured, but the outcome for us could hardly have been better. im proud that my family reminded clear-headed when panic could have led to a very different outcome.25. the brown bear approached the family in order to _.a. catch shore birdsb. start an attack c. protect the children d. set up a barrier for itself26. the bear finally went away after it _.a. felt safe b. got injured c. found some food d. took away the camera27. the writer and his family survived mainly due to their _ .a. pride b. patience c. calmness d. cautiousness cchoosing the right resolution (决定) millions of americans began 2014 with the same resolution they started 2013 with, a goal of losing weight. however, setting weight loss as a goal is a mistake. to reach our goal of losing weight - the output, we need to control what we eat - the input ( 输入). that is, we tend to care about the output but not to control the input. this is a bad way to construce goals. the alternative is to focus your resolution on the input. instead of resolving to lose weight, try an actionable resolution: “ill stop having desert for lunch,” or “ill walk every day for 20 minutes.” creating a goal that focuses on a well-specified input will likely be more effective than concentrating on the outcome. recently a new science behind incentives (激励) , including in education, has been discussed. for example, researcher roland fryer wanted to see what works best in motivating children to do better in school. in some cases, he gave students incentives based on input, like reading certain books, while in others, the incentives were based on output, like results on exams. his main finding was that incentives increased achievement when based on input but had no effect on output. fryers conclusion was that the intensives for inputs might be more effective because do not knoe how to do better on exam, aside from general rules like “study harder.” reading certain books, on the other hand, is a well-set task over which they have much more control. as long as you have direct control over your goal, you have a much higher chance of success. and its easier to start again if you fail, because you know exactly what you need to do. if you want to cut down on your spending, a good goal would be making morning coffee at home instead of going to a cafe, for example. this is a well-specified action-based goal for which you can measure your success easily. spending less money isnt a goal because its too general. similarly, if you want to spend more time with your family, dont stop with this general wish. think about an actionable habit that you could adopt and stick to, like a family movie night every wednesday. in the long run, these new goals could become a habit.28. the writer thinks that setting weight loss as a goal is a mistake because _ .a. it is hard to achieve for most americans b. it is focused too much on the resultc. it is dependent on too many things d. it is based on actionable decisions29. in roland fryers research, some students did better than the others because _ .a. they obeyed all the general rules b. they paid more attention to examsc. they were motivated by their classmates d. they were rewarded for reading some books30. according to the writer, which of the following statements is a good goal?a. “ill give up desert.” b. “ill study harder.”c. “ill cut down my expense”d. “ill spend more time with my family”31. the writer strongly believes that we should _ .a. develop good habits and focus on the outcomeb. be optimistic about final goals and stick to themc. pick specific actions that can be turned into good habitsd. set ambitious goals that can balance the input and outputdmultitaskingwhat is the first thing you notice when you walk into a shop? the products displayed (展示) at the entrance? or the soft background music?but have you ever notice the smell? unless it is bad, the answer is likely to be no. but while a shops scent may not be outstanding compared with sights and sounds, it is certainly there. and it is providing to be an increasing powerful tool in encouraging people to purchase.a brand store has become famous for its distinctive scent which floats through the fairly dark hall and out to the entrance, via scent machines. a smell may be attractive but it may not just be used for freshening air. one sports goods company once reported that when it first introduced scent into its stores, customers intension to purchase increased by 80 percent.when it comes to the best shopping streets in pairs, scent is just as important to a brands success as the quality of its window displays and goods on sales. that is mainly because shopping is a very different experience to what it used to be.some years ago, the focus for brand name shopping was on a few people with sales assistants disproving attitude and dont-touch-what-you-cant-afford displays. now the rise of electronic commerce (e-commerce) has opened up famous brands to a wider audience. but while e-shops can use sights and sounds, only bricks-and-mortar stores (实体店) can offer a full experience from the minute customers step through the door to the moment they leave. another brand store seeks to be much more than a shop, but rather a destination. and scent is just one way to achieve this.now a famous store uses complex man-made smell to make sure that the soft scent of baby powder floats through the kid department, and coconut (椰子) scent in the swimsuit section. a department store has even opened a new lab, inviting customers on a journey into the stores windows to smell books, pots and drawers, in search of their perfect scent.32. according to the passage, what is an increasingly powerful tool in the success of some brand store?a. friendly assistant.b. unique scents.c. soft background musicd. attractive window display.33. e-shops are mentioned in the passage to _ .a. show the advantages of brick-and-mortar storesb. urge shop assistants to change their attitudec. push stores to use sights and soundsd. introduce the rise of e-commerce34. the underlined word “destination” in paragraph 5 means _ .a. a platform that exhibits goodsb. a spot where travelers like to stayc. a place where customers love to god. a target that a store expects to meet35. the main purpose of the passage is to _ .a. compare and evaluateb. examine and assessc. argue and discussd. inform and explain第二节：（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。the internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet, chat and go where weve never been before.but just as in face-to-face communication, there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on line. 36 imagine how youd feel if you were in the other persons shoes.for anything youre about to send, ask yourself: “would i say this to the persons face?” if the answer is no, rewrite and reread. 37 if someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct (本能) is to fire back in the same manner. but try not to do so. 38 if it was caused by a disagreement with another member, try to fix the situation by politely discussing it. remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.39 offer advice when asked by newcomers, as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate. when someone makes a mistake, whether its a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer, be kind about it. if its a small mistake, you may not need to say anything. even if you feel strongly about it, think twice before saying anything. having good manners yourself doesnt give you license to correct everyone else. 40 at the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended (侵犯). a. repeat the process till you feel sure that youd feel comfortable saying the words to the persons face.b.if you do decide to tell someone about a mistake, point it out politely.c. you should either ignore the person, or use your chat software to block their messages.d. it is not polite to ask others personal questions such as their age, sex and salary.e.（ab）when you send short messages to a person online, you must say something beautiful to hear.f.(ac)the basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated.g.(ad)everyone was new to the network once.第三部分 英语知识运用（满分20分）完形填空(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(a、b、c和d)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。on a cold november afternoon, my mother and i were walking
