He has a 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 to 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 applicants 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. Congratulations!” Jimmy sat down and they shared a cup of well-deserved coffee as he landed himself a new job. 36 Why did Jimmy apply for a new job?A. He was out of work B. He was bored with his jobC. He wanted a higher positionD. He hoped to find a better boss37What did Jimmy see on the way to the interview?A. A friends car had a flat tyreB. a wild man was pushing a carC. a terrible accident happened D. an old mans car broke down38Why did the old man offer Jimmy a ride?A. He was also to be interviewed B. He needed a traveling companionC. He always helped people in needD. He was thankful to Jimmy39How did Jimmy feel on hearing the interviewers question?A. He was sorry for the other applicantsB. There was no hope for him to get the jobC. He regretted helping the old manD. The interviewer was very rude40What can we learn from Jimmys experience？A. Where there is a will, theres a wayB. A friend in need is a friend indeedC. Good is rewarded with good.D. Two heads are better than oneBBefore Alaska became part of the U.S., it had been owned by Russia. Trading posts and small settlements were scattered along the coast. The rest of land was left unexplored. The Russians were mainly interested in the wealth of furs from the vast herds of seals they found there.By the mid-1800s, most of the seal herds had been wiped out, and Russia no longer wanted to keep Alaska. William Seward, Secretary of State for President Johnson, believed the United States should buy Alaska from Russia. President Johnson wasnt so sure it was a wise way to spend U.S. money, but he agreed to let Seward discuss it with the Russians. Acting quickly, Seward made a deal. On March 30, 1867, he signed an agreement for the U.S. to pay seven million dollars for the land.Many people thought it was a foolish waste of Americas money. They called the deal “Sewards folly”. Then gold was discovered in Alaska and public opinion changed quickly.Seward did not live to see the true value of Alaska. He died in 1872, five years after making the purchase (购买). Each year, Alaskas natural resources(资源) have brought in many times the $7,000,000 paid for it. Natural gas, coal, oil, lumber, seafood and other minerals, besides the gold first found, have made it a valuable addition to the United States. In 1959, Alaska be-came the 49th state of the United States.41. The Russians wanted to sell Alaska because _.A. they thought it wasnt a good placeB. they thought it didnt belong to RussiaC. they couldnt find enough seals thereD. they wanted to earn more money from the U.S.42. When Seward signed the agreement, many people thought _.A. it was a successful deal B. it had its true valueC. he wasted U.S. money D. he was clever43. Which of the following things was found first in Alaska?A. Gas. B. Coal. C. Oil. D. Gold.44. The best title for this passage would probably be _.A. Alaska, a beautiful place B. Alaska with natural resourcesC. Alaska, the 49th state of the U.S. D. Alaska, home to sealsCBelow is a selection from a popular science book. If blood is red, why are veins（静脉） blue? Actually, veins are not blue at all. They are more of a clear, yellowish color. Although blood looks red when its outside the body, when its sitting in the vein near the surface of the skin, its more of a dark reddish purple color. At the right depth, these blood-filled veins reflect less red light than the surrounding skin, making them look blue by comparison.Which works harder, you heart or your brain? That kind of depends on whether youre busy thinking or busy exercising. Your heart works up to three times harder during exercise, and shifts enough blood over a lifetime to fill a supertanker. But in the long run, your brain probably tips it, because even when youre sitting still your brain is using twice as much energy as your heart, and it takes four to five times as much blood to feed it.Why do teeth fall out, and why dont they grow back in grown-ups? Baby (or “milk”) teeth do not last long; they fall out to make bigger room for bigger, stronger adult teeth later on. Adult teeth fall our when they become damaged, decayed and infected by bacteria. Once this second set of teeth has grown in, youre done. When theyre gone, they are gone. This is because nature figures youre set for life, and what controls regrowth of your teeth switches off.Do old people shrink as they age?Yes and no. Many people do get shorter as they age. But, when they do, it isnt because theyre shrinking all over. They lose height as their spine（脊柱） becomes shorter and more curved due to disuse and the effect of gravity(重力). Many (but not all) men and women do lose height as they get older. Men lose and average of 3-4 cm in height as they age, while women may lose 5 cm or more. If you live to be 200 years old, would you keep shrinking till you were, like 60 cm tall, like a little boy again? No, because old people dont really shrink! It is not that they are growing backwards - their legs, arms and backbones getting shorter. When they do get shorter, its because the spine has shortened a little. Or, more often, become more bent and curved.Why does spinning make you dizzy（眩晕的）?Because your brain gets confused between what youre seeing and what youre feeling. The brain senses that youre spinning using special gravity-and-motion-sensing organs in your inner ear, which work together with your eyes to keep your vision balance stable. But when you suddenly stop spinning the system goes out of control, and your brain thinks you removing while youre not.Where do feelings and emotions come from?Mostly from an ancient part of the brain called the limbic system. All mammals have this brain area - from mice to dogs, cats, and humans. So all mammals feel basic emotions like fear, pain and pleasure. But since human feelings also involve other, newer bits of the brain, we feel more complex emotions than any other animal on this planet.If exercise wears you out, how can it be good for you?Because our bodies adapt to everything we do to them. And as far as your body is concerned, its “use it, or lose it”! Its not that exercise makes you healthy; its more that a lack of exercise leaves your body weak and easily affected by disease45What is the color of blood in a vein near the surface of the skin?A. Blue B. Light yellowC. Red D. Dark reddish purple46Why do some old people look a little shrunken as they age?A. Because their spine is in active use.B. Because they are more easily affected by gravity.C. Because they keep growing backwards.D. Because their spine becomes more bent.47.Which of the following statements about our brain is true?A. In the long run, our brain probably works harder than our heart.B. When our brain senses the spinning, we will feel dizzy.C. The brains of the other mammals are as complex as those of humans.D. Our feelings and emotions come from the most developed area in our brain.48What is the main purpose of the selection?A. To give advice on how to stay healthy.B. To provide information about our body.C. To challenge new findings in medical research.D. To report the latest discoveries in medical science.第II卷（非选择题）四、短文填空阅读下面短文，根据以下要求：1）汉语提示；2）首字母提示；3）语境提示, 在每个空格内填入一个适当的英语单词，所填单词要求意义准确、拼写正确。（每题1分；共10分）Last weekend we went mountain climbing.
