When the Federal Government of Australia was formed in 1901 , no one knew where Australias capital would be . The two cities of Melbourne and Sydney both wanted the honor . Instead , the founding fathers chose a piece of land between the two cities for the new capital . The government would build a new city called Canberra as the countrys capital .In 1911 the government invited the world leading architects to enter designs for Canberra in a contest . An architect from Chicago named Walter Griffin won . The government decided to build Canberra according to his plan . Men started to work on Canberra in 1913. Twenty-four years later , the city was finished , but the government moved to this new city ten years before it was completed .At one time , almost everyone in Canberra worked for the government . However , the city today has become a center of education and favorite place for tourists . Now people can hold a government job , or they can work in business . They also make a living by teaching or meeting the needs of tourists .People find life in Canberra very relaxing and pleasant . The city is surrounded by beautiful mountains where people can ski . There is a large man-made lake lined with beaches and parks in the center of Canberra .Canberra in now Australias largest inland city . Many people living there have come from other cities in Australia and from other lands . They have come to Canberra to work . Some have come to escape the busier way of life found in many other cities .56Which of the flowing shows the proper location of Canberra , according to the map above ? AIt is to the south of Melbourne , the north of Victoria .BIt lies to the north of Melbourne , close to Perth .CIt is about 200 km to Sydney , over twice to Melbourne .DIt lies much closer to Melbourne than it is to Sydney .57Canberra was designed by .Athe founding fathers Ban American Cthe Federal Government Dthe world leading architects58Canberra is now .Aa lovely city which is not on the coast Ba beautiful coastal city with beaches and parks Cthe largest city and an education center in Australia Da pleasant place with mountains and big lakes surrounding it 59Choose the right time order of the following events .a. The founding fathers decided to build Canberra .b. The Federal Government was founded .c. Canberra was completed after twenty-four years .d. Both Melbourne and Sydney wanted to be the capital .e. The government had a contest to design the capital .f. The people began to build Canberra .g. The Federal Government moved to the new city . Aa, b,f, d, c, e, gBa, b, f, d, e, g, c Cb, d, a, e, f, g, c Db, d, a , e, c, f, g BAttention to detail is something everyone can and should do especially in tight job market . Bob Crossley , a human-resources expert notices this in the job applications that come across his desk every day . “Its amazing how many candidates cross out themselves,” he says .“Resumes (简历)arrive with faults . Some candidates dont bother to spell the companys name correctly . Once I see a mistake , I cross out the candidates,” Crossley concludes . “If they cannot take care of these details , why should we trust them with a job ?”Can we pay too much attention to details ? Absolutely . Perfectionists struggle over little things at the cost of something larger they work toward. “To keep from losing the forest for the trees,” says Charles Garfield , the professor at the university of California , San Francisco , “We must constantly ask ourselves how the details Were working on fit into the larger picture . If they dont , we should drop them and move to something else .”Garfield compares this process to his work as a computer scientist at NASA. “The Apollo moon launch was slightly off course 90 percent of the time,” says Garfield . “But a successful landing was still likely because we knew the exact coordinates of our goal . This allowed us to make adjustments as necessary.” Knowing where to go helps us judge the importance of every task we undertake .Too often we believe what accounts for others success is some special secret or a lucky break . But rarely is success so mysterious . Again and again , we see that by doing little things within our grasp well , large rewards follow .60According to the passage , some job applicants were rejected because .Athey failed to present resumes that are free of mistakes Bthey failed to give a detailed description of their background Cthey cross out their names from the applicants list themselves Dtheir handwriting on the resume was hard to recognize 61The third paragraph is intended to state that .Atrees are as important as forests Bwe should pay much attention to details Cwe shouldnt go too far in details to lose our goals Dperfectionists are capable of achieving perfect results 62Which of the following is the authors advice to the readers ?ACareless applicants should not be trusted .BAttention to details shouldnt be overlooked .CDont forget details before we move to something else .DBe aware of the details of a task before undertaking it .63The example of Apollo II moon launch is given to show that . Aminor mistakes can be ignored Bfailure is the mother of success Cadjustments are the key to the successful completion of any work Dkeeping ones goal in mind helps decide which details can be overlooked CMy most memorable and best experiences will stay in my mind for many years to come . For most people , horses are just animals , smelly beasts that should only be used for racing , for money . Ever since I was only a few years old , horses have been my passion . My dream was to ride a horse . When that time finally approached my anxious little life , my heart beat a thousand times a minute .It was warm summer day in Odessa , Ukraine, and we were at a park . My mom was buying several things for home while I wandered around to find something that made my eyes twinkle . I spotted a figure from heaven , a four-legged beautiful animal was standing down the block , breathing heavily . I ran up to the horse , not even knowing how to pet it , just excited to see the most beautiful creature .He was shining white , with a well- brushed tail . He was playing with his bit and chewed on the reins . I could tell this horse was bored . Where was the owner ?Right away I assumed that I could ride this horse . I turned the other way and went to search for my mom to get some money . I spotted her buying groceries and dragged her to where the horse was . The owner was back and stated that it was his horse and I couldnt ride it . A warm stream of tears flooded down my cheeks as my mom tried to convince the man to let me ride the horse. He finally agreed for a costly price . He taught me how to get on the horse and explained to me that it was important to keep heels down and arms steady . The gentle beat of the horses trot awakened all the senses in me as I bounced up and down on the saddle (鞍). I was the happiest little girl in Ukraine , having the time of my life . I began planning how I was going to buy a horse after I became a millionaire . Before I knew it , the ride was over . Surprisingly , I actually learned to control the horse and change the pace .That day was probably the happiest time of my life . Most children wouldnt have as much fun as I did . Several years later , after coming to America , I began to get involved in show jumping . If it werent for that time in Ukraine I wouldnt be able to enjoy the most amazing sport , one where you and another creature truly have to bond .64Which of the following is true according to the passage ?ALater , the author and that horse took part in show jumping .BAt the first glance , the author fell in love with the horse .CThe horse owner allowed her to ride the horse for free .D The author thought horse racing was for making money .65 is the closest to the meaning of the underlined word “bond”.ATo be united to share feelings BTo be compared to find advantages CTo be inspired to set up goals DTo be supposed to join efforts 66Form the passage , we can infer that .Athe horse could be easily controlled Bthe horse owner was a kind and rich man Cthe experience opened doors for her to get into the sport Dthe authors mother loved the horse as much as her daughter 67What is the best title of the story ?ALove for Horses BInterest in Sports CAn Exciting Dream DAn Amazing Ride DStatuses are marvelous human inventions that enable us to get along with one another and to determine where we “fit” in society . As we to about our everyday lives , we mentally attempt to place people in terms of their statuses . For example , we must judge whether the person in the library is a reader or librarian , whether the telephone caller is a friend of a salesman , and so on .The statuses we assume often vary with the people we meet , and change throughout life . Most of us can , at very high speed , assume the statuses that various situations require . Much of social interaction consists of identifying (识别) and selecting among suitable statuses and allowing other people to assume their statuses in relation to us . This means that we fit our actions to those of other people based on a constant mental process of appraisal and interpretation . Although some of us find the task more difficult than others , most of us perform it rather effortlessly .A status has been compared to ready-made clothes . Within certain limits ,an American is not free to choose the costume of a Chinese peasa
