It was the director who would make the final decision.The director discovered that the young man did an excellent job in his college, which caused the directors interest.The director asked, “Who paid for your college?”The young man answered, “My father passed away when I was one year old, so it was just my mother.”“What did your mother do?” The director seemed surprised.“She is a clothes cleaner,” the young man answered, with no emotion.“Have you ever helped your mother wash some clothes before?”“Never. My mother always wanted me to study and read more books. She can wash clothes faster than me,” the young man seemed puzzled when answering.“Well, now I have a request. When you go back home today, clean your mothers hands and see me tomorrow.”The young man was happy when hearing this because he felt that his chance of getting the job was great. When he went home, he happily asked his mother to let him clean her hands. His mother felt strange but happy. With mixed feeling, she showed her hands.The young man cleaned his mothers hands, with tears falling. It was the first time he noticed that his mothers hands were so wrinkled(有皱纹的), and there were so many bruises（伤痕）. This pair of hands enabled him to go through college. This pair of hands was the price that his mother had to pay for his life and his future. The next morning, the director asked the young man, “Now tell me what you learned yesterday.”After hearing what the young man said, the director knew the young man had learned his lesson. “This is the man whom I am looking for. You are hired(雇用).”49. What did the director ask the young man to do after the job interview?A. To tell his story. B. To pay for his own college.C. To wash his mothers hands. D. To wash clothes for his mother.50. Why didnt the young mans mother ask her son to do the chores?A. Because she thought it was her job.B. Because her son was busy with study.C. Because she thought she could do better than her son.D. Because she loved her son and hoped that her son had more time to study.51.

From the passage, we may know that the young man _.A. failed the interview in the endB. used to wash his mothers handC. wasnt good at studying in his collegeD. didnt know his moms hardship beforeC Many classrooms today have computers in them. However, there are usually not enough for each student to use one at the same time. Computers cost a lot and they also use space in small classrooms. Laptop computers(笔记本电脑) are more convenient because they need less space, and they can be carried or moved easily. However, most schools still cannot afford enough for all of the students to have one. Since the development of the first computer, these machines have continued to become smaller, lighter, and cheaper. These days there are cheaper devices that are small enough to be held in one hand but are still very powerful. The development of these handheld devices is allowing more schools to bring technology（技术） into classrooms.Some of the first handheld devices were called PDAs（掌上电脑）, personal digital assistants, they were used to help people in business stay organized. They could make lists of things to do each day, store important phone numbers, and even make files for work. Now we have smart phones and small tablet computers(平板电脑). The latest devices have developed a lot since those early PDA models. Those used in schools today can do all the things PDAs did and more! They can use the Internet, play games, and run useful programs, for example, those that help in science experiments.Because handheld devices are relatively cheap, schools can afford to buy more of them. In some schools, students paid a deposit(押金) at the beginning of the year for a handheld device. Since the students paid a deposit, they will take better care of the device over the year. The students can get the deposit back at the end of the year if they return the device in good condition. Or, students can just pay a little more money to keep it at the end of the year.In the future, schools might be able to afford computers or laptops for every student. Until then, handheld devices are turning out to be good things to use instead.53. Which of the following is TRUE about handheld devices? A. They were first developed for students. B. Most laptops are cheaper than handhelds.C. Schools can afford to buy many of them.D. Students cant use them to email each other.54. Why dont schools have enough computers for students?A. Because computers are not useful. B. Because computers are expensive. C. Because computers are not convenient.D. Because most students have their own laptops.55. Why do some students pay a deposit? A. To use the internet for one year. B. To do science experiments.C. To run useful programs. D. To use one of the schools devices. 56. The passage is mainly about . A. handheld devices B. school problemsC. computer programs D. studying technologyDAlthough people everywhere seem to enjoy drinking coffee, they dont all have the same coffee culture. In Europe for example, coffee shops are common places for people to meet friends and to talk while they drink coffee. On the other hand, places like this were not as common in North America in the past. Instead, people in North America liked to drink coffee in their homes with friends. The coffee culture in the USA changed when Starbucks (星巴克)coffee shops spread across the country.The first Starbucks coffee shop opened in 1971 in downtown Seattle, Washington, in the USA. It was a small coffee shop that cooked its own coffee beans. The coffee shops business did well, and by 1981 there were three Starbucks stores in Seattle.Things really began to change for the company in 1981.That year, Howard Schultz met the three men who ran Starbucks. Schultz worked in New York for a company that made kitchen equipment. He noticed that Schultz ordered a large number of special coffee makers, which caused his great interest. Schultz went to Seattle to see what Starbucks did. In 1982, the original Starbucks owners hired Schultz as the companys head of marketing（市场营销）.In 1983, Schultz traveled to Italy. The special environment of the espresso(浓咖啡 ) bars there caught his eyes. Back in the USA, Schultz created an environment for Starbucks coffee shops that was comfortable and casual, and customers everywhere seemed to like it. Starbucks began opening more stores across the USA. Then the company opened coffee shops in other countries as well. Today, there are more than 16,000 Starbucks coffee shops all over the world.However, that does not mean Starbucks has not had problems. In fact, many Starbucks stores have closed over the past few years. On the one hand, this is because there were too many coffee shops competing for business in one small area. On the other hand, stores in some countries closed because the coffee culture there did not match with the “feel the same everywhere” environment offered by Starbucks.57. The underlined word “run” in Paragraph 3 probably means “ ”.A. moved B. managed C. loved D. used58. According to the passage, which is the right order for the following sentences?a. This man helped to make Starbucks a huge coffee company.b. He went to Seattle to learn about the company and later worked for it.c. Howard Schultz noticed Starbucks ordered lots of special coffee makers.d. Starbucks began as a small coffee company in Seattle in the USA.A. a-d-c -b B. a-d-b-c C. d-c- b-a D. d-c-a-b59. Why did so many Starbucks close in some countries? A. All of the coffee tastes the same. B. The coffee in these places was too expensive. C. The people in these countries didnt drink coffee. D.There were too many coffee shops in one place.60.
