It was set in an English village deep in the countryside, quite different from my home in Sweden.One of my fellow volunteers, a girl from Tanzania, seemed a little unhappy, so I asked what the problem was. She told me she had a friend back home who had financial difficulties and maybe it was impossible for her to complete her university courses. So this friend of mine had sent all her money to Tanzania to support her friend! This meant that she didnt have much food to eat and no money to go anywhere outside the village. I was so touched and I felt I had to do something. So, during my next trip to one of the nearby towns I walked into a shop. I didnt have much money left myself but I thought Id buy her an extra box of the muesli we both liked and some rice. I started talking to the woman (also a volunteer) working in the shop and eventually told her about my friend. The woman looked at me, amazed. “Does she eat pasta?” she asked. “Yes,” I replied. She immediately started loading a bag with pasta, cookies, and other things until the bag was full. “Give her this for me. Its my treat!” I couldnt believe it but cried with happiness. As I left the shop to go home with my unexpected bag of food, I asked the woman her name. “Just Gloria,” she said. Imagine my friends face when I arranged the gifts on my kitchen table and fetched her from her room to see! I have never seen her so happy! A few weeks later she found Gloria in the shop and thanked her in person. These two extraordinary women really showed me what true kindness and compassion are, and the impression will stay with me for the rest of my life!56.The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 1 probably refers to “ “.A. a year of voluntary service B. the residential homeC. the writers home D. the shop57.Why did the girl from Tanzania seem a little unhappy? A. Because she had to stop her voluntary work.B. Because she had spent all her money on food and clothes.C. Because her friend in Tanzania maybe had to quit school for lack of money.D. Because she had no money to buy food or other things.58.From the text, we know that .A. the writer was from England B. Gloria was from Sweden and was very kind to the writerC. the writer was a university student from Tanzania D. the writer volunteered to help people with learning disabilities59.Why did the writer help the girl from Tanzania?A.

Jason got straight As and was determined to study medicine at Harvard, yet this was his downfall. His physics teacher gave Jason a B, a mark Jason believed would undermine (损害) his entrance to Harvard. After receiving his B, Jason took a butcher knife to school and stabbed his physics teacher.How can someone as smart as Jason do something so dumb? Studies show there is little or no correlation between IQ and emotional intelligence.During my early university years, I regarded myself as an intelligent guy. I got good marks in mathematics, physics, and other subjects. I thought such skills would surely give me a bright future. After one year of study with decent marks, I began to see two major classes of students. The first category of students turned up to few lectures, partied every weekend, enjoyed a great social life, and did minimal work to pass courses. The second category of students were intelligent and hard workers who got good grades and were very focused on their studies. Surely would these intelligent and hard-working students find the great jobs before the other lazier class of students?Not so. Students are often shocked upon graduation that their qualifications are not as important as they once thought. Graduates enter the workforce only to realize that co-workers hate them and less intelligent people are the ones receiving promotions. Educational skills are useless in some industries when interpersonal skills are absent. You can have great ideas, theories, and solve complex problems, but if you cannot effectively communicate in a persuasive and exciting manner by relating to your fellow humans, you will face an uphill battle in whatever challenges you encounter. Its not that people dislike you because of your intelligence; its that people dislike you because youre rude and not understanding. The intelligent person with poor communication skills is insensitive or unaware of others emotions.60.Jason Haffizulla stabbed his physics teacher because .A. he was unfairly treated by his teacher B. he was disappointed with his downfall C. he was not smart enough at studies D. he got a worse mark than usual 61.We can infer from the third paragraph that the author in his early university years.A. didnt think communication skills were as important as intelligence B. didnt work hardC. belonged to the first category of studentsD. could keep a balance between social life and studies 62.Intelligent people are hated because .A. they can solve more complex problems B. they cant settle the challenges they meetC. they are envied for their intelligence D. they are not understanding enough 63.What can make people succeed at work according to the last paragraph?A. Educational skills. B. Communication skills. C. Good manners. D. Awareness of peoples emotions. CThe tough economy is bringing new shoppers to the secondhand market.

In Washington, a federal judge last week blocked the Food and Drug Administration from requiring new warning labels on cigarette packs. Judge Richard Leon ruled in a case brought by five tobacco companies. The judge temporarily stopped a new federal rule which requires large new warnings starting next September. These include color images such as a dead body or diseased lungs. And simple text warnings now appear.Congress called for color images showing the dangers of smoking, similar to what Canada does. But the tobacco companies say the new requirements approved in June violate (侵犯) their free speech rights guaranteed by the Constitution.Judge Leon said the FDA could not require the new labels before a lawsuit (诉讼) against the government is decided. Some experts say the process co
