Heres a story about one successful businessperson. He started out washing dishes and today he owns 168 restaurants.Zubair -Kazi was born in Bhatkal, a small town in southwest India. His dream was to be an airplane pilot, and when he was 16 years old, he learned to fly a small plane.At the age of 23 and with just a little money in his pocket, Mr. Kazi moved to the United States. He hoped to get a job in the airplane industry in California. Instead, he ended up working for a company that rented cars.While Mr. Kazi was working at the car rental(祖赁的) company, he frequently ate at a nearby KFC restaurant. To save money on food, he decided to get a job with KFC. For two months, he worked as a cooks assistant. His job was to clean the kitchen and help the cook. I didnt like it, Mr. Kazi says, but I always did the best I could.One day, Mr. Kazis two co-workers failed to come to work. That day, Mr. Kazi did the work of all three people in the kitchen. This really impressed the owners of the restaurant.A few months later, the owners needed a manager for a new restaurant. They gave the job to Mr. Kazi. He worked hard as the manager and soon the restaurant was making a profit.A few years later, Mr. Kazi heard about a restaurant that was losing money. The restaurant was dirty inside and the food was terrible. Mr. Kazi borrowed money from a bank and bought the restaurant. For the first six months, Mr. Kazi worked in the restaurant from 8 a.m. t0 10 p.m., seven days a week. He and his wife cleaned up the restaurant, remodeled the front of the building, and improved the cooking.

They are wrong. Everyone we become adults, forget how to access it. Creativitr isnt always connected with great works of art or ideas. People at work and in their free time routinely think of creative ways to solve problems. Maybe you have a goal to achieve, a tricky question to answer or you just want to expand your mind! Here are three techniques to help you.This technique involves taking unrelated ideas and trying to find links between them. First, think about the problem you have to solve or the job you need to do. Then find an image, word, idea or object, for example, a candle. Write down all the ideas/words associated with candles: light, fire, matches, wax, night, silence, etc. Think of as many as you can. The next stage is to relate the ideas to the job you have to do. So imagine you want to buy a friend an original present; you could buy him tickets to a match or take him out for the night. Imagine that normal limitations dont exist. You have as much time/space/money, etc. as you want. Think about your goal and the new possibilities. If, for example, your goal is to learn to ski(滑雪), you can now practice skiing every day of your life (because you have the time and the money). Now adapt this to reality. Maybe you can practice skiing every day in December, or every Monday in January.Look at the situation from a different point of view. Good negotiators (谈判者) use this technique in business, and so do writers. Fiction writers often imagine they are the characters in their books, They ask questions: what does this character want? Why cant she get it? What changes must she make to get what she wants? What does she.dream about? If your goal involves other people, put yourself in their shoes. The best fishermen think like fish!36. According to the passage,rwhen.we become adults,A. most of us are no longer creative.B. we are -not as imaginative as children.C. we can stilllearn to.be more creative.D. .we are unwillfng to be creative. .37. According to the first technique, if you need to solve a problem,A. you should link it with candles. . .B. you have to think of buying a present for a friend.C. you should link it with as many words as possible.D. you could find an image and try to link it with the problem.38. The second technique suggests that you just imagine .A. setting a goalis as simple as skiing.B. you have every resource to achieve your goal.C. new possibilities will soon appear. .D. December and January are the best months for skiing.39. The phrase put yourself in their shoes in paragraph.4 is closest in m. eaning toA. dressyourselflikethem.B. do as they ask you toC. put on their shoesD. think as they would40. We learn from the third technique that a good salesman should ask himself:A. what are my customers needs?B. what do I usually do?C. what did my boss tell me to do?D. how should I sell my products?第三篇The State of Marriage TodayIs there something seriousty wrong with marriage today? During thepast 50 years, the rate of divorce in the United States has exploded: almost 50% of marriages end in divorce now, and the evidence suggests it is going to get worse. If this trend continues, it will lead to the breakup of the family, according.to a spokesperson for the National Family Association. Some futurists predict that in 100 years, the average American will marry at least four times, and extramaritai(婚外的) affairs will be even more common than they are now.But what are the reasons for this, and is the picture really so gloomy (明暗的)? The answer to the first question is really quite simple: marriage is no longer the necessity it once was. The institution of marriage has been based for years partly on economic need. Women used to be economically dependent on their husbands-as they usually didnt have jobs outside the home. But with the rising number of women in well-paying jobs, this i:a no longer the case, so they dont feel that theyneed to stay in a failing marriage.In answer to the second question, the outlook may not be as pessimistic (悲观的) as it seems. While the rate of divorce has risen; the rate of couples marrying has never actually fallen vert much, so marriage is still quite popular. In addition to this, many couples now simply live together and dont bother to marry. These couples are effectively married, but they do not appear in either the marriage or divorce statistics. In fact, more than 50% offtrst marriages survive.So is marriage really an outdated institution? The fact that most people still get . married indicates that it isnt. And it is also true that married couples have a healthier life than single people: they suffer less from stress and its consequences, such as heart problems, and married men generally consider themselves more dontented tfian their single counterparts. Perhaps the key is to find out what makes a successful marriage and apply it to all of our relationships!41. Which of the following is true about the marriage in the United States today?A.Divorce leads to the breakup of the family.B. More than half of the married couples get divorced.C. American people marry more than four times.D. More and more people are getting divorced.42. What does this is no longer the case in paragraph 2 mean?A. Women are not economically dependantany more.B. It is not necessart to get married any more.C. Women do not need a husband anylonger.D. Many wives do well-paying jobs outside home now.43.Whyis the outlook of marriage riot as hopeiess as it appears?A.Many people stil like to get married.B.The rate of divorce has actually decreased.C.Over 60% of the marriages continue to exist.D.The statistics of divorce is reliable.44.How do most men feelin their marriage life?A.They feel much stronger than before.B.They dont feel as lonely as before.C.They su忏er more than before.D. They feel more satisfied than being singte.45.Which of the following about marriage is NOT mentioned in the passage?A.It is important to discover what makes a marriage successful.B.Marriage has long been partly an economic need.C.It is a fact that most people choose to get married.D.Many people went abroad after divorce.第一篇31A【解析】题意:Kazi先生年轻时,他的梦想是_。题干中的关键词为“Mr.Kazi人名;young年轻;dream梦”。根据文中第2段的第1行末:“他的梦想是当一名飞机驾驶员。”很明显应选A项。32C【解析】题意:Kazi先生决定去KFC工作,为了_ 。题干中的关键词为“Mr.Kazi人名;KFC肯德基缩写”。根据文中第4段的第2行:“为了省下吃的钱,他决定到KFC寻找一份工作。”很明显应选C项。33C【解析】题意:Kazi先生成为了一家新餐馆的经理,因为_ 。题干中的关键词为“Mr.Kazi人名;manager经理;because因为”。根据文中第5段的第3行:“几个月后,主人需要一个新餐馆的经理。他们把这项工作交给了Karl先生。”该句前面“一天,Kazi的两个同事没来上班。Kazi一人干了三个人的活,这给老板留下了深刻的印象。”很明显应选C项。34D【解析】题意:为了拯救一家亏损餐馆,Kazi先生做了以下事情,哪一项除外?题干中的关键词为“To save a failing restaurant挽救一家亏损餐馆;EXCEPT除之外”。在第7段的第2行末查到“A项”,紧接着在第3行查到“B项”和“C项”。以此断定应选D项。35B【解析】题意:在最后1段中,“its a mess”意指什么。题干中的关键词为“its a mess它;means意指”。mess的词义是:“肮脏,污秽”。然后分别查出AD4个选项的汉语词义,很明显B项(肮脏)是正确选项。第二篇36B【解析】题意:根据本文,当我们成为成年人时,_ 。题干中的关键词为“when we become adults当我们成为成年人”。根据文中第1段的第2行:“,可是我们大多数人一旦步入成年便忽略了如何去做。”以此判断B项正确。37D【解析】题意:根据第l种方法,如果你需要解决一个问题,_ 。题干中的关键词为“the first technique第1种方法;to solve a problem解决一个问题”。根据文中第2段的12行:“这种方法涉及并设法发现它们之间的联系。首先,要考虑一下你必须要解决的问题。接着要找到一种设想,。”以此可以看出D项正确。38B【解析】题意:第2种方法表明,你恰恰可以设想_ 。题干中的关键词为“The second technique第2种方法;you just imagine你恰恰可以设想”。根据文中第3段的第1句和第2句:“你可以设想通常的限制已不存在。你有你
