Listening to them is not such a pleasure. Because the men are new at the game, they dont hesitate to discuss the fat problem incessantly. However women of the same age do not discuss the fat problem, especially not in mixed company. They prefer to face the problem with quiet dignity. Discussing the problem might only draw attention to some stray body part that may be successfully tucked away under an article of clothing.The age at which a man begins to explore the fat problem can vary. The actual problem can manifest itself in the early 30s,but broad range discussion usually starts later. There are early nonverbal symptoms. Ive watched the rugged journalist who shares my apartment sneak by with a Diet Coke. His shirts are no longer neatly tucked in to display a trim waist. Recently he has begun to verbalize his anxiety. He tells me, with a sheepish grin, that he is taking his suits to Chinatown to have them “tailored”.Still older men have lost their dignity and rattle on unabashedly. Often wives and children play important roles in their fat瞚nspection rituals. Take my oldest brother, a former college football player.His daughter says that several times a day he will stand at attention and call out,” Fat, medium or thin?” She knows the correct answer: medium. Thin would be an obvious stretch, and fat may not get her that new video. According to his wife, he stands in front of the mirror in the morning(before the days meals take their toll),puts his hands behind his head and lurches into a side bend, then clutches the roll that has developed and says,“ Am I getting fatter?”His wife is expected to answer,“ You look like you may have lost a few pounds.”And then there are the ex-husbands a pitiful group. They are extremely vocal. When I go to the movies with one, he confides that he is suffering from great hunger because he is dieting. He hasnt eaten since the pancakes and sausages he wolfed down that morning. He pauses in his monologue while he buys his popcorn. After the movie, we sprint to a restaurant, where he again pauses to devour a basket of bread. Before he orders his chaste salad and soup, he grows plaintive. Do I think hes fat?16 Men of a certain age are always ready to talk about their fat problem.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned17 Women of a certain age do not discuss the fat problem, especially in the presence of men.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned18 Men usually begin to worry about their weight when they are nearly 40.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned19 The journalist used to drink Diet Coke and tuck his shirts in order to keep trim.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned20 Men older than the journalist never hesitate to talk about their fat problem yet would be displeased if their family members tell them the truth.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned21 My oldest brothers daughter would not tell her father he is fat because she loves him so much that she cannot bear to upset him.A Right B Wron C Not mentioned22 The ex-husbands are pitiful because they have got no wives to sympathize with their fat problem.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned第三部分：概括大意与完成句子 (第2330题，每题1分，共8分)阅读下面这篇短文，短文后有2项测试任务：(1)第2326题要求从所给的6个选项中为第25段每段选择1个正确的小标题；(2)第2730题要求从所给的6个选项中选择4个正确选项，分别完成每个句子。请将答案涂在答题卡相应的位置上。How to Get along Well with Your Boss1 Before you argue with your boss, check with the bosss secretary to determine his mood.If he ate nails for breakfast, it is not a good idea to ask him for something. Even without the bosss secretary, there are keys to timing dont approach the boss when hes on deadline, dont go in right before lunch, when he is apt to be distracted and rushed, dont go in just before or after he has token a vacation.2 If youre mad, that will only make your boss mad. Calm down first. And dont let a particular concern open the floodgates for all your accumulated frustration. The boss will feel that you think negatively about the company and it is hopeless trying to change your mind. Then maybe he will dismiss you.3 Terrible disputes can result when neither the employer nor the employee knows what is the problem the other wants to discuss. Sometimes the fight will go away when the issues are made clear. The employee has to get his point across clearly in order to make the boss understand it.4 Your boss has enough on his mind without your adding more. If you cant put forward an immediate solution, at least suggest how to approach the problem. People who frequently present problems without solutions to their bosses may soon find they cant get past the secretary.5 To deal effectively with a boss, its important to consider his goals and pressures. If you can put yourself in the position of being a partner to the boss, then he will be naturally more inclined to work with you to achieve your goals.23 Paragraph 224 Paragraph 325 Paragraph 426 Paragraph 5A Keep your voice low all the timeB Put yourself in the bosspositionC Propose your solutionD Dont go in when you are angryE Make the issue clearF Never give in27 If you want to ask the boss for anything, it is important ot find out first .28 It is necessary to make clear to the boss .29 It is not wise to present the boss with a problem .30 You must be considerate and think of the troubles .A to give the boss your adviceB how he is feelingC the boss may haveD what you really want to talk to him aboutE without suggesting a way to solve itF how unhappy you are第四部分：阅读理解 (第3145题，每题3分，共45分)下面有3篇短文，每篇短文后有5道题，每题后面有4个选项。请仔细阅读短文并根据短文回答其后面的问题，从4个选项中选择1个最佳答案涂在答题卡相应的位置上。第一篇Americans Get TouchyThe New York Times recently reported that American teens are hugging practically everyone they see. Say goodbye to the greetings of the past, from the hands off “Whats up!” to the handshake or high five. For young people across the country, hugging is the new “Hello”.Girls are hugging girls. Boys are hugging boys. Girls and boys are hugging each other. And, like every major trend, there are lots of variations on the form. Theres the classic, full body, arms around the person bear hug, the casual one armed side hug, the group hug and the hug from behind. Theres the handshake that turns into a hug and the hug that turns into a pat on the back.As trends go, this one seems pretty innocent. But some parents, teachers and school administrators are worried nonetheless. Will young people who arent as comfortable with physical contact feel peer pressured into hugging? Will kids who dont receive hugs feel left out? Could an extra long hug slide into the more ominous territory of sexual harassment?In response to some of these concerns, some schools have set up new rules to limit or eliminate hugging. One school head has created a three瞫econd limitation4 for hugs at her school.A few schools have taken even more drastic measures, placing a ban on all forms of touching between students.A few important points are being left out of the discussion. While the US has traditionally been reserved about touching saving hugs and kisses for relatives, romantic partners and very close friends people in many other parts of the world have been greeting each other this way for ages.In Latin America or Western Europe, in countries like Spain, France, and Italy, a kiss on the cheek is common among women, as well as among women and men who are not romantically involved. The cheek kiss varies by region. Sometimes it is just an air kiss blown past the face. In other places, the proper way of greeting is to deliver a kiss upon both cheeks, or sometimes even a triplet of kisses performed by kissing one cheek, then the other, then back to the first. Latin American men are more likely to shake hands when greeting other men, but in some countries like Turkey, its not unusual for men who know each other well to exchange kisses on the cheek. Meanwhile, for the Maori people of New Zealand, a traditional greeting called the “hongi” involves pressing noses together.So, from a global perspective, the new trend of teen hugging in America is not so “new” after all. People all around the world move in close to say hello, and Americans are just now joining in.31 The word “practically” in the first paragraph could be best replaced by .Acertainly Bnearly Cactively Dvoluntarily32 Which of the following is NOT among the typical ways of greetings in the past?Ahands off “Whats up”Bhandshake.Chighive.Dembrace.33 Some parents, teachers and school administrators concern the new trend of hugging for the following reasons EXCEPT .ASome young people get involved into the trend due to peer pressureBThose who dont receive hugs feel left outCTheres the danger that hugging slide into the more ominous territory of sexual harassmentDDiseases could be transmitted more easily through the extra long body contact34 Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?ATeenagers across the US hug everyone they see in nearly the same way.BAlthough some adults worry about the trend, few measures have been taken to ban on it.CTraditionally, the US people have been reserved about hugging between anybody.DIn some countries, its usual for men to kiss each other on the cheek.35 We can infer that the author holds aattitude toward the new trend of hugging .Apositive Bnegative Cindifferent Dconservative第二篇A Fire near WacoSix years later, in an about瞗ace, the FBI admits that federal agents fired tear gas canisters capable of causing a fire at the Branch Davidian compound near Waco, Texas in 1993. But the official said the firing came several hours before the structure burst into flames, killing 80 people including the Davidians leader, David Koresh.“In looking into this, weve come across information that shows some canisters that can be deemed pyrotechnic in nature were firedhours before the fire started,” the official said. “Devices were fired at the bunker, not at the main structure where the Davidians were camped out.”The Federal Bureau of Investigation maintains it did not start what turned to be a series of fiery bursts of flames that ended a 51 day standoff between branch members and the federal government. “This doesnt change the bottom line that David Koresh started the fire and the government did not,” the official said. “It simple shows that devices that could probably be flammable were used in the early morning hours.”The law enforcement official said the canisters were fired not at the main structure where the Davidian members were camped out but at the nearby underground bunker. They bounced off the bunkers concrete roof and landed in an open field well, the official said. The canisters were fired at around 6 a. m., and the fire that destroyed the wooden compound started around noon, the official said. The official also added that other tear gas canisters used by agent that day were not flammable or potentially explosive.While Coulson denied the grenades played a role in starting the fire, his statement marked the first time that any U.S. government official has publicly contradicted the governments position that federal agents used nothing on the final day of the siege at Waco that could have sparked the fire that engulfed the compound. The cause of the fiery end is a major focus of an ongoing inquiry by the Texas Rangers into the Waco siege.36 The FBI official has NOT admitted that .Athe canisters were fired at the main structureBthe canisters were fired hours before the fire startedCfederal agents fired tear gas canisters capable of causing a fireDother tear gas canisters that were not flammable or potentially explosive were also used37 From the passage, what information can be inferred about the event in 1993?AThe compound was blown up by the FBI agents.BThe compound burst into flames at dawn.CThe federal government besieged the compound for 51 days before the tragedy occurred.DAbout 80 people were killed in the event except the Davidiansleader, David Koresh.38 After reading the passage, how much do you know about the compound near Waco?AAbout 51 people lived in the compound at the time of the event in 1993.BIt consisted of a main structure and a bunker.CIt was built of stone.DIt was a schoolhouse.39 Coulsons speech has .Amade the matter even more complicated and confusingBbeen approved by the governmentCmet sharp criticismDbrought the whole matter into broad daylight40 The attitude of the narrator towards this message is .Aneutral Bbitter Cexcited Dexpectant第三篇A Minor MicrosurgeryLast year, Sean Martinovich, from Whitianga, had life saving surgery when a golf瞫ized tumor was removed from his brain stem. But the operation left half his face paralysed. He talked with a slur, sometimes dribbled out of the side of his mouth and could not close his eye properly. Although he could run around with the other boys in the playground, when they laughed he could not laugh with them. Without a smile, he could suffer psychologically and emotionally.Last week, 6-year-old Sean had seven hours of microsurgery that should give him back his smile. Doctor Bartlett removed a nerve from the back of one of Seans legs and transplanted it into his face. On the normal side of his face the nerve divides into lots of little branches. “Well cut those nerve branches and then well take a nerve graft from one leg and tunnel it across his face from one side to the other and join that on to the nerve thats been cut on the good side of his face.” Doctor Bartlett said, before the operation. “If this was not fixed he could face physical and emotional problems as he got older,” Doctor Bartlett said. “Socially people can become quite withdrawn because of the face paralysis. Its easy for people, especially children, to become rather emotionless because they prefer the flatness of no movement on either side to the weirdness of an asymmetry of smiling on one side and having this twisted face.”Sean is not smiling yet. Over the next six months the nerves will grow across the face to the damaged side and after that movement will hopefully come back. Seans parents, Steve and Wendy Martinovich, said they had been through a year of hell. But their son was a determined boy who just got on with it, said Mrs Martinovich. They are amazed at the technology that they hope will restore the cheeky smile they love so much. For Doctor Bartlett the microsurgery is almost routine. For Seans parents, it is a miracle.41 How old was Sean Martinovich when the golf sized tumor was removed from his brain stem?A4 years old.B5 years old.C6 years old.D7 years old.42 The underlined word “paralysed” (Para. 1) most probably means .Aslur dribbledBlost of feeling in or control of body musclesCunable to open ones mouthDpsychologically and emotionally disabled43 Doctor Bartlett transplanted a nerve into Sean Martinovichs face which was removed from his .AlegBbackCthe normal side of his faceDbrain44 According to Doctor Bartlett, If the nerve was not fixed, Sean Martinovich could face physical and emotional problems as he got older. Why?ABecause he may not want others to see the weirdness of an asymmetry of smiling on one side, so he will choose to withdraw.BBecause other children will be scared to see his face.CBecause he will be through time of hell.DBecause other children will refuse to talk or play with him.45 According to the passage, which of t
