People came to the counter and you put things in their bags for them and carried things to their cars. It was hard work.While working, you wear a plate with your name on it. I once met someone I knew years ago. I remembered his name and said, “Mr. Castle, how are you?” We talked about this and that. As he left, he said, “It was nice talking to you, Brett.” I felt great, he remembered me. Then I looked down at my name plate. Oh no. He didnt remember me at all, he just read the name plate. I wish I had put “Irving” down on my name plate. If hed have said, “Oh yes, Irving, how could I forget you?” Id have been ready for him. Theres nothing personal here.The manager and everyone else who were a step above the box boys often shouted orders. One of these was: You couldnt accept tips. Okay, Im outside and I put the bags in the car. For a lot of people, the natural reaction is to take a quarter and give it to me. Id say, “Im sorry, I cant.” Theyd get angry. When you give someone a tip, youre sort of being polite. You take a quarter and you put it in their hands and you expect them to say, “Oh, thanks a lot.” When you say, “Im sorry, I cant,” they feel a little put down. They say, “No one will know.” And they put it in your pocket. You say, “I really cant.” It gets to a point where you almost have to hurt a person physically to prevent him from tipping you. It was not in agreement with the stores belief in being friendly. Accepting tips was a friendly thing and made the customer feel good. I just couldnt understand the strangeness of some peoples ideas. One lady actually put it in my pocket, got in the car, and drove away. I would have had to throw the quarter at her or eaten it or something.I had decided that one year was enough. Some people needed the job to stay alive and fed. I guess I had the means and could afford to hate it and give it up.56. What can be the best title for this text?A. How Hard Life is for Box BoysB. Getting along with CustomersC. Why I Gave up My JobD. The Art of Taking Tips57. From the second paragraph, we can infer that _.A. the writer didnt like the impersonal part of his jobB. with a name plate, people can easily start talkingC. Mr. Castle mistook Irving for BrettD. Irving was the writers real name58. The box boy refused to accept tips because _.A. customers only gave small tipsB. some customers had strange ideas about tippingC. the store forbade the box boys to take tipsD. he didnt want to fight with the customers59. The underlined phrase “put down” in the third paragraph probably means _.A. misunderstood B. defeated C. hateful D. hurtBThese days, its easy to fly across oceans for vacation. Centuries ago, however, crossing the open seas required thorough and accurate planning, handmade boats, and courage. Scientists and historians have long been looking for clues to explain who crossed which oceans first. When it comes to the trip between Polynesia (玻利尼西亚中太平洋群岛) and South America, chickens may have been among the first ocean voyagers, according to new evidence. After studying an ancient chicken bone, anthropologists (人类学家) from the University of Auckland in New Zealand now say that people and chickens traveled from Polynesia to what is now Chile (智利) by about 620 years ago. By then, the Inca people were already living in South America, but the Polynesians would have been the first to get there by sea. Previous theories claimed that European explorers and their chickens sailed to South America first - but those voyagers didnt arrive until about a century later. In 2002, archaeologists dug up 50 chicken bones from a site in Chile called El Arenal. The team from New Zealand analyzed one to these bones. According to their calculations, the bone is about 650 years old. The researchers also compared the genetic material, or DNA, from the South American chicken bone with DNA from 11 chicken bones that had been found on the Polynesian islands of Tonga and American Samoa. These islands are 6,000 miles west of Chile. The bones found on the Polynesian islands are been 600 and 2,000 years old. Results of the comparisons showed that the chicken bones from both the Polynesian and South American sites had part of DNA in common. The researchers found the same part of DNA in feathers of two living chickens in Chile that belong to a modem breed that lays blue eggs. That DNA evidence suggests a close relationship among the chickens. However, the weight of scientific evidence is now behind the hypothesis (假设) that it was seafaring ( 航海) Polynesians who sailed from the islands to South America and returned, says archaeologist Patrick V. Kirch of the University of California, Berkeley.60. What is the passage mainly about? A. It was difficult for ancient people to travel between Polynesia and South America. B. The first people who lived in Chile and Polynesia. C. Valuable chicken bones have been found in Chile. D. Chickens - the first to travel between Polynesia and South America.61. When did the first European explorers reach South America? A. About 520 years ago. B. About 2.000 years ago. C. About 600 years ago. D. About 620 years ago.62. People found that chickens were among the first to travel from Polynesia to South America by _. A. comparing the colors of eggs laid by chickens from the two places B. comparing the DNA of chicken bones dug up on the Polynesian islands and that of the chicken bones from South America C. studying some previous theories D. asking the natives of South America63. What do we learn from the passage? A. European explorers and their chickens were the first to sail to South America. B. Chickens in South America have the same ancestors as those in Polynesia. C. In ancient times, a 6,000-mile channel separated Polynesia from South America. D. Before the Polynesians arrived in South America, the Inca people had lived there.
