It sold parts for ships. Semler worked like a mad man, from 7:30 in the morning to midnight every day. One afternoon, while he was visiting a factory in New York, he fell down. The doctor said, “ Theres nothing wrong with you. But if you continue like this, youll find a new home in our hospital.” Semler got the message. He changed the way he worked. In fact, he changed the ways his workers worked, too.At the same time, Semler changed the office. Instead of walls, they have plants at Semco, so the boss cant shut himself away from everyone else. And the workers are free to decorate their workplace as they want. As for uniforms, some people wear suits and others wear T-shirts.Semco has flexible working hours: the workers can decide when they need to arrive at work. Also, Semco lets its workers use the companys machines for their own projects, and makes them take holidays for at least thirty days a year.It sounds perfect, but does it work? The answer is in the numbers: in the last six years, Semcos revenues (收益) have gone from $35 million to $212 million. The company has grown from 800 workers to 3,000. Why?Semler says its because of “peer pressure” (同辈压力). Peer pressure makes workers work hard. It means if someone isnt doing his job well, the other workers will not allow the situation to continue. In other words, Semler treat his workers like adults rather than children, and expects them to act like responsible (负责任的) adults. And they do.（1）Why did Semler change the ways he and his workers worked? A . Because he became mad.B . Because he had to stay in hospital.C . Because his father asked him to do.D . Because he realized the danger of overwork.（2）What does the underlined word “ flexible” probably mean in Chinese? A . 灵活的B . 短暂的C . 漫长的D . 固定的（3）What does the underlined word “they” in the last paragraph refer to? A . Adults.B . Semlers workers.C . The bosses.D . Semcos revenues.（4）In Paragraph 4, the writer mainly wants to tell us . A . the company made a lot of moneyB . the reason for Ricardo Semlers successC . Ricardo Semlers idea sounded perfect but it didnt workD . Ricardo Semlers method of running the company was successful24. （10分）任务阅读 （10分）阅读下列短文，根据短文内容填写表格 (每空限填一词)。How do you feel when you have to make a speech(演讲) in front of class? What about when you go to a birthday party? Do you get really shy?Shyness means feeling nervous or frightened when youre around other people. Experts (专家) have found that more than 80 percent of middle school students feel afraid to be the centre of attention. Some kids are born shy. Some become shy later because of their life experiences.Its OK if it takes you a while to feel yourself again when you go to a new place or meet new people. In fact, everybody gets a little shy sometimes. Its just a case of how much.Most people have red faces and talk in broken sentences when they get shy. But some become so shy that they wont go to a restaurant because they are too nervous to order and pay the bill (账单). Some are afraid of meeting new people, so they seldom go outside. This kind of shyness can be bad for a person.If shyness doesnt stop you from doing something you want to do, being shy isnt a very big problem. Some experts say shy people are quieter and cleverer because they think more and talk less. Shy people are also good at working with others because they think more for other people. Some great people in history were shy, too.You see, being shy isnt all bad. But remember not to let good chances pass by just because of it! If you have to sing a song at a birthday party or practise your spoken English in front of others, just do it! Theres nothing to be afraid of.ShynessMeaningTo feel _or frightenedCausesTo be the_of attentionTo be born shyTo have_experiencesEffects_effectsTo have red_To talk in_sentencesTo be_of meeting new peopleGood effectsTo be quieter and_To be good at_with othersAdviceTo take hold of (抓住) good_四、 短文填空。 (共1题；共5分)25. （5分）How do you talk with people when meeting them if you want to leave a good impression? Here a some tips for you/Tip 1 You have to show up, which can be a challenge for many of us. You can show up as an observer（旁观者）of other interesting people and let that be a learning experience for you. Before you start talking, its important to just listen, even if you think you are a wise storyteller. If you are close to a group of people who are discussing a topic, watch their body language and see if they will let you join in their conversation.Tip 2 Youd better go in the conversation with a couple of topics to keep it going, or questions to ask if there is a short stop. Simple things like How do you know the host?”and How did you get here?” are always good conversation starters to a certain extent（在一定程度上）.Tip 3 Dont fear silences. Awkward（令人尴尬的）silences are common part of talking with people, just rush to fill them. If you dont want to go on with the conversation, just say you are going to get another drink or something to eat, and find another group to talk with.Tip 4 Relax. If you cannot keep a conversation going, or you dont know what you should say next, give yourself a little time to clear your head. Relax, and then turn back into the discussion.阅读以上信息，用恰当的词完成下面的短文，每空一词。When you meet new people, you always want to leave a good impression. But do you know how to be a good speaker? Here is some advice for you.The first advice is that you have to show up and observe or listen to others even if you can tell stories _ .
