He has 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 ot 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 applications 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. 56. Why did Jimmy apply for a new job?A. He was out of work B. He was bored with his job C. He wanted a higher positionD. He hoped to find a better boss57. What 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 down58. Why 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 Jimmy 59. How 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 job C. He regretted helping the old man D. The interviewer was very rude 60. A. What 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 one BYou know eating fruit and vegetables is virtuous. But did you know it can also make you look good?People who increased their intake over just six weeks developed a healthy glow and appeared more attractive, researchers found.Scientists at St Andrews University found eating them subtly increased yellow and red pigments in the volunteers skin.They monitored the food intake of 35 people and took pictures of their faces, arms and hands using a sensitive camera at the start, and after three and six weeks.Increasing their intake of greens by 2.9 portions a day was found to make the person look healthier and an extra 3.3 portion could enhance their attractiveness, when their photographs were rated by others.Fruit and vegetables are rich in carotenoids（类胡萝卜素）, which are known to protect against cell damage from pollution and UV rays, and can also prevent age-related diseases including heart disease and cancer.But while it was known eating extreme amounts of certain vegetables such as carrots could turn skin orange, it was not known a small increase was perceptible to others and was seen as appealing.A camera measured changes to the skins redness, yellowness and lightness, and found it significantly changed in people who naturally increased their intake. These changes were not evident at three weeks.Using light sensors, the researchers showed these red and yellow hues(色调，色相) were linked with the levels of carotenoids in their skin.There are hundreds of carotenoids but those thought to have the most dramatic effect are lycopene（番茄红素） - which gives tomatoes and red peppers their red colour - and beta-carotene found in carrots as well as broccoli, squash, and spinach.Skin colour is also affected by chemicals called polyphenols(多酚), found in apples, blueberries and cherries, which cause blood rush to the skin surface.61. From Paragraph 4, we learn that pictures were taken _.A. three times using a special camera every three weeks B. twice using a sensitive camera every six weeksC. by 35 people when they ate fruit and vegetables D. by 35 people while being monitored to compare the changes62. The word “appealing” (Paragraph 7) can best be replaced by _.A. frightening B. harmful C. dangerous D. attractive63.

Among hundreds of carotenoids, which are most effective? _A. tomatoes and red peppers B. squash, and spinach C. lycopene and beta-carotene D. heir red colour and beta-carotene75. The purpose of the article is to _.A. tell people a new discovery B. advise people to eat more fruit and vegetablesC. introduce a way to protect skin D. list the functions of carotenoids to skinCMany children first learn the value of money by receiving an allowance, The purpose is to let children learn from experience at an age when financial mistakes are not very costly ,The amount of money that parents give to their children to spend as they wish differs ,from family to family.At first, young children may spend all of their allowance in no time ,Lf they do this, they will learn the hard way that spending must be done within a budget ,which demands choices between spending and saving ,Older children may be responsible enough to save money for larger costs ,like clothing or electronics.But it is not a good idea to pay your child for work around the home ,These jobs are a normal part of family life , Paying children to do extra work around the house , however, can be useful .It can even provide an understanding of how a business works.Allowances give children a chance to experience the things they can do with money. They can share it in the form of gifts or giving to a good cause .They can spend it by buying things they want., Or they can save and maybe even invest it , Saving helps children understand that costly goals require sacrifice; you have to cut costs and plan for the future.Many banks offer services to help children and teenagers ,lean about personal finance .A savings account is an excellent way to lean about the power of compound interest.Compounding works by paying interest on interest .So, for example, one dollar invested at two percent interest for two years will earn two cents in the first year .The second year, the money will earn to percent of one dollar and two cents, and so on ,That may not seem like a lot .But over time is adds ,up.66.
