Although we were all brought up in the same way，my brothers and sisters soon abandoned their pressed flowers and insects. Unlike them，I had no ear for music and languages. I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic.Before World War we spent our summer holidays in Hungary. I have only the dim memory of the house we lived in，of my room and my toys. Nor do I recall clearly the large family of grandparents，aunts，uncles and cousins who gathered next door. But I do have a clear memory of the dogs，the farm animals，the local birds，and above all，the insects.I am a naturalist，not a scientist. I have a strong love of the natural world and my enthusiasm led me into varied investigations. I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil while reading about other peoples observations and discoveries. Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind.Suddenly you fancy you see the answer to the riddle，because it all seems to fit together. This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books，which some might honor with the title of scientific research.But curiosity，a keen eye，a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist：one of the outstanding and essential qualities required is selfdiscipline，a quality I lack. A scientist requires not only selfdiscipline，but hard training，determination and a goal. A scientist，up to a certain point，can be made. A naturalist is born. If you can combine the two，you get the best of both worlds.541The first paragraph tells us the author_.Awas interested in flowers and insects in his childhoodBlost his hearing when he was a childCdidnt like his brothers and sistersDwas born to a naturalists family42The author cant remember his relatives clearly because_.Ahe didnt live very long with themBthe family was extremely largeChe was too young when he lived with themDhe was fully occupied with observing nature43Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?AThe author is a naturalist，but not a scientist.BThe author is a scientist as well as a naturalist.CThe author is first of all a scientist.DThe author is neither a naturalist nor a scientist.44The author says that he is a naturalist rather than a scientist probably because he thinks he_.Ahas a great deal of trouble doing mental arithmeticBlacks some of the qualities required of a scientistCjust reads about other peoples observations and discoveriesDcomes up with solutions in a most natural wayBWhen you were looking for a reliable，honest auto mechanic，how did you find him？Before you went into that restaurant you recently tried，how did you know that it served great food？If you are like most people on the planet，you want to lower your risk of a big ugly surprise so you asked people you trust to refer to a business they trust. Marketers call this friendtofriend recognition of a business “wordofmouth” advertising.When you do a great job for your customer or a bad job，people are going to talk about your business. Unfortunately，because we humans seem to feel negative emotions more intensively than positive ones，were more likely to tell more of our friends about bad experiences with a business than positive ones. Understand this：Customers believe their own experience. You cant make them believe that your company is wonderful when they felt they were treated badly. So，to get positive wordofmouth going for your business in this servicebased economy，youve got to do a really outstanding job for everyone，exactly.And when you do，you build a great reputation. That takes time. But it forms a close link with your customers in a way that no advertising and no promotional coupon (优惠券) ever could.The good news is that because there are so many different businesses chasing after your customers money，people want to know whom they can trust. So people are going to be talking about you. Create a free sales force for your businessan army of delighted customers who tell everyone that they know how good your company is to do business with. Thats a great antidote (解毒剂) to defectionitis.45What is the main topic of this passage?AA good name will bring you money.BA person should rely on his friends for business.CAdvertising can make customers believe its wonderful.DA company can rely on its associates to survive.46According to the passage，whether we go to a place or not depends on_.Abusiness fame Bmedia assistanceCparticular recognition Dassociates recommendation47When you do an outstanding job in service，you will surely_.Amake more money than you expectBhave a mutual understanding with your customersCbuild a great reputation immediatelyDearn your fame as well as advertise for your company48The underlined word “ defectionitis ” probably means_.Aservice imperfection Bcustomers distrustCcustomers protection Dservice advertisementCRalph and Norton can grow to be 40 feet long and live in a tank as large as a football field. What are they？Theyre the only two whale sharks at a North American aquarium (水族馆)You can see Ralph and Norton at the worlds largest aquarium，the new Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta. The aquariums giant tanks hold eight million gallons of water and will be home to about 100,000 fish!The aquarium was designed to look like a giant ship breaking through the waves. It has 60 different habitats from the sea and five galleries (展馆)，each with a different theme. About 2.4 million visitors are expected to come each year.“We want to be the worlds most engaging aquarium.” said Jeff Swanagan，the aquariums executive director.Ralph and Norton arrived in June,2005 from Taiwan. They were only 15 and 13 feet long，but they may grow to be more than 40 feet long！Whale sharks are the worlds largest fish. Three fulltime vets will work there to make sure that Ralph，Norton，and all of the aquariums sea life stay healthy. Students from the University of Georgia will help run the aquarium and conduct research at the animal hospital.The aquarium was paid for almost completely by a $200 million gift from Berne Marcus，cofounder of the Home Depot Inc，and his wife，Billi. “Its going to be the most unique aquarium in the world，”said Marcus. Marcus said the aquarium was a “thank you” note to the city of Atlanta and the State of Georgia，where the Home Depot first opened for business.49According to this passage，Ralph and Norton are_.Apolar bears Bwhale sharksCpenguins Ddolphins50The worlds largest aquarium located in_.ALos Angeles BNew YorkCAtlanta DMiami51Which of the following is TRUE?AThe aquarium was designed to look like a giant shark.BThe aquariums giant tanks can hold eighteen million gallons of water.CRalph and Norton arrived in June, 2005 from Japan.DMarcus helped to build the aquarium to show his thanks to Atlanta.52By saying “We want to be the worlds most engaging aquarium”，Jeff Swanagan means_.Athe aquarium will attract a large number of visitorsBthe aquarium will be home to very special sea animalsCthe aquarium will be rebuilt and will be made even largerDthe aquarium will be the largest habitat for sea lifeDWhen I was in primary school，sometimes I would meet a girl of the same age as me. Lisa was never active，but she was always very sweet and nice. In the 5th grade she came to my class.She was absent a lot，and one day I had the courage to ask why. She told me she was sick，and she explained she wore a wig (假发) because her medicine made her lose her hair. We left_it_at_that. Anytime Lisa came to classseldomI would hang with her on the playground.I received much ridicule (嘲弄) from my friends for this because they thought I was ignoring them for Lisa. My family education taught me to be nice，and I felt Lisas needs were much more important than others I knew.It had been months since Lisa was in our class，and one day our teacher was crying. She explained Lisa died the day before and would no longer be our classmate. She told us Lisa had fought a battle (斗争) with cancer for years.I was shocked. Lisa never spoke of her illness as if it could kill her. Well，all these years I have kept Lisa in my mind and heart. When I go through the important events in my life，I think of Lisa.Ive had a strong wish recently to find her mother and father. Id like to tell them that though they never met me，their daughter had a sweet effect (影响) on my life. I have no idea what her parents first names are. I write to your column (栏目) and hope you can point me in the right direction.Lisa was such a lovely girl. Maybe her parents would be comforted by the fact that after all these years they are not the only ones who remember her.53The underlined sentence in Para.2 probably means_.Awe kept on talking about her illness laterBwe discussed the topic and then left togetherCwe just stopped talking about her illnessDwe went away after talking about her illness54Why was the author being laughed at_.ABecause she wore a wig to school.BBecause she always played with Lisa.CBecause she cried in the classroom.DBecause she lost her friends because of Lisa.55What did the author learn from Lisa_.ATo keep your illness a secret.BTo be nice to everyone everywhere.CTo face challenges in life bravely.DTo put others needs above yours.56The author wrote this passage mainly to_.Aremember a true friendBask for help to find a friends parentsCshow her concern for a friendDtell her experience of fighting cancerEStudies show that laughter is something that makes you feel calm or relaxed for both physical and psychological wounds though it may seem futile to laugh in the face of pain and fear.When Dan Rather interviewed comedian Bill Cosby just one week after his son, Ennis, was killed, Cosby said, “I think it is time for me to tell people that we have to laugh. You can turn painful situations around through laughter. If you can find humor in anything, you can survive it.”Call it a flashlight for dark times: laughter just seems to adjust attitude better than anything else. Inspirational speaker Steve Rizzo recalls a TV interview with an injured firefighter a few days after 9.11The man had fallen more than 30 stories in one of the towers and had broken a leg. Everyone was crying, and the reporter asked, “How is it that youve come out of this alive?” He looked at her and without missing a beat, said, “Look, lady, Im from New York and Im a firefighter; thats all you need to know.”“Everyone laughed and though the laughter was only a couple of seconds,” says Rizzo. “Sometimes thats all you need to catch your second breath. Laughter gives you that couple of seconds. Youre sending a message to your brain, and the message is: If you can still laugh even a little among the pain, you are going to be OK.”Of course, there is a difference between laughing off a serious situation and laughing off the fear that results. The firefighter was doing the latter, states Rizzo, the author of Becoming a Humorous Being, and so should we. “If there is anything we have learnt from 9.11, its how precious life really is,” she says. “We have to send a message that our spirit wont die. One important thing that unites us is our ability to laugh.” 57The writer uses the examples of the comedian and the firefighter to show_. Alaughter is a good way to get rid of pain and fear Blaughter is the best way to cure psychological wounds Cit is your attitude that decides whether you can survive the pain or not Dlaughing off a serious situation is different from laughing off the fear that results58We can infer from the passage that Steve Rizzo is_. Aa reporter Ba soldier Ca firefighter Da doctor59The underlined word futile in the first paragraph means_.Ahopeless Buseless Ccareless Dworthless 60From the passage, we can know that Americans are_.Areally inspired after 9.11 Bhardly united after 9
