people use to see how smart or talented I am Recently however I was disappointed to see that it also decides how I m treated as a person Last year I left a professional position as a small town reporter and took a job waiting tables As someone paid to serve food to people I had customers say and do things to me I don t think they would say or do to their most casual acquaintances 泛泛之交 One night a man talking on his cell phone waved me away and then signed me back with his finger a minute later complaining he was ready to order and asking where I d been I had waited tables during summers in college and was treated like a peon 勤杂工 by plenty of people But at 19 years old I believed I deserved inferior 较差的 treatment from professional adults Besides people responded to me differently after I told them I was in college Customers would joke that one day I d be sitting at their table waiting to be served Once I graduated I took a job at a community newspaper From my first day I heard a respectful tone from everyone who called me I assumed this was the way the professional world worked I soon found out differently I sat several feet away from an advertising sales representative with a similar name Our calls would often get mixed up and someone asking for Kristen would be transferred to Christie The mistake was immediately evident Perhaps it was because money was involved but people used a tone with Kristen that they never used with me My job title made people treat me politely So it was a shock to return to the restaurant industry It s no secret that there s a lot to put up with when waiting tables and fortunately much of it can be easily forgotten when you pocket the tips The service industry by definition exists to satisfy others needs Still it seemed that many of my customers didn t get the difference between server and servant I m now applying to graduated school which means some day I ll return to a profession where people need to be nice to me in order to get what they want I think I ll take them to dinner first and see how they treat someone whose only job is to serve them 41 The author was disappointed to find that A one s position is used as something to measure one s intelligence B talented people like her should fail to get a respectable job C one s occupation affects the way one is treated as a person D professionals tend to look down upon manual waitresses 42 What does the author intend to say by the example in the second paragraph 4 A Some customers simply show no respect to those who serve them B People absorbed in a phone conversation tend to be absent minded C Waitresses are always treated by customers as casual acquaintances D Some customers like to make loud complaints for no reason at all 43 How did the author feel when waiting tables at the age of 19 A She felt it unfair to be treated as a mere servant by professionals B She felt badly hurt when her customers regarded her as a peon C She was embarrassed each time her customers joked with her D She found it natural for professionals to treat her as inferior 44 What can we infer from Para 7 A Those who give others needs are certainly to be looked down upon B Those working in the service industry shouldn t be treated as servants C Those serving others have to put up with rough treatment to earn a living D The majority of customers tend to look on a servant as a server nowadays 45 The author says she ll one day take her clients to dinner in order to A see what kind of person they are B experience the feeling of being served C show her generosity towards people inferior to her D arouse their sympathy for people living a humble life B Information for Visitors to the Hunterian Museum Opening Times The Hunterian Museum is open

section of early bird Australian youths keep slimmer and more physically active than their night owl peers even though both groups got the same amount of sleep A study in the Oct 1 issue of the journal Sleep recorded the bedtimes and wake times of 2 200 Australian participants ages 9 to 16 and compared their weights and uses of free time over four days Children who went to bed late and got up late were 1 5 times more likely to become obese than those who went to bed early and got up early Furthermore late nighters were almost twice as likely to be physically inactive and 2 9 times more likely to sit in front of the TV and computer or play video games for more hours than guidelines recommend The children who went to bed late and woke up late and the children who went to bed early and woke up early got virtually the same amount of sleep in total said co author Carol Maher PhD a postdoctoral fellow with the University of South Australia Scientists have realized in recent years that children who get less sleep tend to do worse on a variety of health outcomes including the risk of being overweight and obese Our study suggests that the timing of sleep is even more important Maher said mornings are more conducive to physical activity for young people than nights which offer prime time TV programming and social networking opportunities This relationship between time of day and available activities might explain why more sedentary 久坐的 and screen based behaviors were observed with later bedtimes she said At a time when research is showing that teenagers have a natural tendency to stay up late and wake late the results of this study could stand as a warning It is widely accepted that the sleep patterns of adolescents are fundamentally different from children and adults and that it is normal for adolescents to stay up very late and sleep in late in the morning Maher said Our findings show that this sleeping pattern is associated with unfavorable activity patterns and health outcomes and that the adolescents who don t follow this sleep pattern do better 50 The experiment was conducted to show the relationship between A health and amount of sleep B sleeping pattern and obesity C time of day and available activitiesD adolescents and sleeping pattern 51 According to Carol Maher in Paragraph 2 A the amount of sleeping time is the main reason for health B the study showed the importance of timing of sleep C the outcome of health is the same whatever the time of sleep or the amount of it 6 D if you sleep more you tend to be slim 52 What does the underlined word mean A respectful B actual C encouraging D deadly 53 Which of the following is mainly conveyed in the article A Early to bed and early to rise tends to free you from obesity B Sleeping pattern is associated with unfavorable activity patterns C It is unreasonable for adolescence to have unfavorable pattern of sleep D The result of the study is widely accepted 54 The writer wants to by quoting Ben Franklin A explain his idea B cause attention C make fun D praise him 55 What is the writer s tone in the article A Passive B Objective C Critical D Subjective D MRS Gardiner s caution to Elizabeth was timely and kindly given on the first favorable opportunity of speaking to her alone after honestly telling her what she thought she thus went on You are too sensible a girl Lizzy to fall in love merely because you are warned against it and therefore I am not afraid of speaking openly Seriously I would have you be on your guard Do not involve yourself or try to involve him in an affection which the want of fortune would make so very imprudent 轻率的 I have nothing to say against him he is a most interesting young man and if he had the fortune he ought to have I should think you could not do better But as it is you must not let your fancy run away with you You have sense and we all expect you to use it Your father would depend on your resolution and good conduct I am sure You must not disappoint your father My dear aunt this is being serious indeed Yes and I hope to engage you to be serious likewise Well then you need not be under any alarm I will take care of myself and of Mr Wickham too He shall not be in love with me if I can prevent it Elizabeth you are not serious now I beg your pardon I will try again At present I am not in love with Mr Wickham no I certainly am not But he is beyond all comparison the most agreeable man I ever saw and if he becomes really attached to me I believe it will be better that he should not I see the imprudence of it My father s opinion of me does me the greatest honor and I should be miserable to lose it My father however is partial to Mr Wickham In short my dear aunt I should be very sorry to be the means of making any of you unhappy but since we see every day that where there is affection young people are seldom prevented by immediate want of fortune from entering into engagements with each other how can I promise to be wiser than so many of my fellow creatures if I am tempted or how am I even to know that it would be wisdom to resist All that I can promise you therefore is not to be in a hurry I will not be in a hurry to believe myself his first object When I am in company with him I will not be wishing In short I will do my best Perhaps it will be as well if you discourage his coming here so very often At least you should not remind your mother of inviting him As I did the other day said Elizabeth with a conscious smile very true it will be wise in me to avoid that But do not imagine that he is always here so often It is on your account that he has been so frequently invited this week You know my mother s ideas as to the necessity of constant company for her friends But really and upon my honor I will try to do what I think to be wisest and now I hope you are satisfied Her aunt assured her that she was and Elizabeth having thanked her for the kindness of her hints 7 they parted a wonderful instance of advice being given on such a point without being complained 56 According to MRS Gardiner Mr Wickham was not Elizabeth s Mr Right because A he was not in the gir
