take off your tie, says the italian health ministry. it has urged employers to let their staff dress casually at work in the summer so the air conditioning can be turned down. taking your tie off immediately lowers the body temperature by 2 to 3 degrees celsius, the ministry said in a statement. allowing a more sensible use of air conditioning yields electricity savings and protects the environment. it called on all public and private offices to let employees wear no tie during heatwaves like the one that has brought africa-like temperatures to many parts of italy this week. the move echoes a similar initiative from italys biggest oil group, eni, which told its staff earlier this month they need not wear a tie at work. tie makers, however, were left hot under the collar. italy confirms that it is a strange country, flavio cima said in a letter to financial daily il sole 24 ore under the headline: i, tie maker, am responsible for global warming. we can now happily continue with our lifestyle, using cars, consuming fuel, heating and cooling our homes at leisure. on one condition: we should not wear a tie , he wrote. i should have listened to my friends and become an oil producer instead. italy is one of the european unions worst performers on the pollution front and is among the eu countries expected to exceed their greenhouse gas emission targets. 60. the italian health ministry urged people to dress casually mainly to _. a. lower their body temperatureb. work more effectivelyc. turn down the air conditioningd. help fight global warming61. what do the underlined words “the one” refer to? a. the tieb. the employeec. the heatwaved. the temperature62. what did the time maker feel when he wrote the letter? a. angryb. happyc. surprisedd. amazed63. we can infer from the passage that _. a. the time maker will become an oil producer in the futureb. the move will pay an important role in the environmental pollutionc. italy will be one of the eus worst performers on the environmental pollution again. d. italy will be expected to realize his greenhouse targetsca fox one day fell into a deep well and could find no means of escape. a goat, overcome with thirst, came to the same well, and seeing the fox, inquired if the water was good. concealing his sad plight under a merry guise, the fox indulged in a lavish praise of the water, saying it was excellent beyond measure, and encouraging him to descend. the goat, mindful only of his thirst, thoughtlessly jumped down, but just as he drank, the fox informed him of the difficulty they were both in and suggested a scheme for their common escape. if, said he, you will place your forefeet upon the wall and bend your head, i will run up your back and escape, and will help you out afterwards. the goat readily assented and the fox leaped upon his back. steadying himself with the goats horns, he safely reached the mouth of the well and made off as fast as he could. when the goat upbraided him for breaking his promise, he turned around and cried out, you foolish old fellow! if you had as many brains in your head as you have hairs in your beard, you would never have gone down before you had inspected the way up, nor have exposed yourself to dangers from which you had no means of escape. look before you leap. 64. when the goat came to the well, the trapped fox felt _. a. disappointedb. angryc. hopefuld. encouraged65. why didnt the fox tell the goat his difficulty?

he continued, i will pay you in advance. with this he took out ten dollars and gave it to my mother.mother said, yes, yes, i will be glad to do so, and took the baby from his arms. when the man left, mother turned to me with tears streaming down a face that looked as though a light was shining on it. she said, i knew god would never let them take away my machine.68. the turning point in the story may refer to _. a. a letter to the familyb. the time when mother comforted mec. the mans coming for helpd. the nicely dressed mans trouble69. according to the text all the following are true to the man except _. a. his wife stayed in hospitalb. he was confused when in troublec. he had few men to turn to for helpd. he was a dentist70. what does mother mean by saying “i knew god would never let them take away my machine.?”a. god can do everythingb. the sewing machine is my only supportc. everybody should believe in godd. never give up when in trouble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，选项中有两项为多余选项.why have you been so successful in reaching some of your goals, but not others? if you arent sure, you are far from alone in your confusion. it turns out that even brilliant, highly accomplished people are pretty lousy when it comes to understanding why they succeed or fail. the intuitive answer that you are born predisposed to certain talents and lacking in others is really just one small piece of the puzzle. in fact, decades of research on achievement suggests that successful people reach their goals not simply because of who they are, but more often because of what they do. 711. get specific. when you set yourself a goal, try to be as specific as possible. lose 5 pounds is a better goal than lose some weight, because it gives you a clear idea of what success looks like.72 also, think about the specific actions that need to be taken to reach your goal.2. 73given how busy most of us are, and how many goals we are juggling at once, its not surprising that we routinely miss opportunities to act on a goal because we simply fail to notice them. did you really have no time to work out today? no chance at any point to return that phone call? achieving your goal means grabbing hold of these opportunities before they slip through your fingers.3. know exactly how far you have left to go. achieving any goal also requires honest and regular monitoring of your progress if not by others, then by you yourself. if you dont know how well you are doing, you cant adjust your behavior or your strategies accordingly.74it is my hope that, after reading about the nine things successful people do differently, you have gained some insight into all the things you have been doing right all along. remember:75. its never what you are, but what you do.a. wait for opportunities to appearb. seize the moment to act on your goalsc. here are things successful people do differentlyd. next ill talk about my own experience on how to achieve successe. you dont need to become a different person to become a more succes
