This article gives some suggestions on how to give an effective speech.You have to give a speech, and youre terrified. You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you stumble(结巴) over words, you talk too long, and you bore your audience. Later you think, “Thank goodness, its over. Im just no good at public speaking. I hope I never have to do that again.”Cheer up! It doesnt have to be that bad. Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making. Ask yourself the purpose of your speech. What is the occasion(场合)? Why are you speaking? Then, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of time doing your research. Then spend plenty of time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible, and use pictures, charts, and graphs if they will help you make your points more clearly. Never forget your audience. Dont talk over their heads, and dont talk down to them. Treat your audience with respect. They will appreciate your thoughtfulness.Just remember: be prepared. Know your subject, your audience, and the occasion. Be brief. Say what you have to say and then stop. And be yourself. Let your personality come through so that you make person-to-person contact with your audience.If you follow these simple steps, youll see that you dont have to be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches! Youre not convinced yet? Give it a try and see what happens.24. The main idea of this article is that .A. you can improve your speaking abilityB. a poor speaker can never changeC. you should always make a short speechD. it is hard to make a speech25. Paragraph 2 implies that .A. many people are afraid of giving a speechB. many people are happy to give a speechC. many people do not prepare for a speechD. many people talk too long26. The phrase “talk over their heads” means .A. speaking too loudlyB. looking at the ceilingC. looking down upon themD. using words and ideas that are too difficult27. The title for this passage may be “ ”.A. Do Not Make a Long SpeechB. How to Give a Good SpeechC. How to Prepare for a SpeechD. Try to Enjoy a SpeechCIts good to make mistakes, and here is why. First of all, mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying new things. Its always good to try new things because when you are trying new things you are growing. If you never try anything new, how can you improve? How can you expand? The simple answer is “You cant.” Look around you. With very few exceptions, either everything you see in your world or every single detail of every single thing is the result of someone trying something newAnother good thing about mistakes is this: When you are making mistakes, you are learningConsider this: Edison failed 10,000 times before he perfected the light bulb. When asked how it felt to fail that many times, he said that he hadnt failed 10,000 times, but rather had learned 10,000 things that didnt workFinally, when you make a mistake you are much closer to success. Why? Because when all is said and done, you will have tried some numbers of things before you succeedEvery time you make a mistake you eliminate one of those things and are one step closer. But this all doesnt mean that you should go ahead without considering the consequences（后果） of a mistake. Quite the contrary, when you try something new you have to be willing to set some reasonable limits so that in case it doesnt work out the way you want it to, you will be in a position to try againWe all have limited time and money so dont blow them all on one approach to a problem. Realize that it probably wont be perfect the first time and allocate （分配） these resources properly so you can learn, make corrections, and try it againIf you accept and use your mistakes in this way ,you can make great progress in your business and your careerThere is an old saying that goes, “If youre not making mistakes, youre not trying hard enough.”So go ahead and make mistakes. And learn. And grow. And succeed28. From the second paragraph, we can conclude that _A.mistakes are unnecessary for developmentB.we are afraid of trying new thingC.its common for people to make mistakesD.mistakes are better than not trying29. The underlined word “eliminate” means _A.avoid B.remove C.accept D.solve30. According to the article, one thing you should pay attention to about making mistakesis _.A.avoiding making the same mistakesB.accepting the punishment willinglyC.taking consequences into considerationD.trying things out one by one31. What would the writer probably suggest we say to ourselves when we make amistake?A.Never mind, I can always try againB.Id better stay out of troubleC.OK! Now I can learn somethingD.Look at this mess. Anyone would be upsetDROCK-PAPER-SCISSORS is a game played all around the world. As kids, we have relied on it to settle disagreements with friends from which channel to watch to who gets to eat the last ice cream all because we think the results are completely random.But are they?Wang Zhijian, PhD, a professor at Zhejiang University, believes that there is a regulation behind this simple game. So, he gathered 360 students, divided them into groups of six and had each group play 300 rounds of rock-paper-scissors, reported USA Today.After the first results, Wang thought he was wrong, because players chose each of the three moves about one-third of the time, suggesting that the game is random after all. However, Wang later noticed a surprising regulation of behavior in the data.When players won a round, they usually stuck to the same choice. But when they lost, they tended to change to a more powerful move. For example, if Player A had just thrown down scissors to beat Player Bs paper, Player A was more likely to throw down scissors again while Player B was likely to choose rock, since rock beats scissors.According to Wang, this might be a function that is called “conditional response”. So, for the next step of his study, as he told BBC, Wang plans to do some research about how human brains make quick decisions when competing.Now that youve learned how to predict the moves of your opponent (对手), youll have an advantage next time you play rock-paper-scissors with your friends. But there is one problem: make sure they havent read about Wangs study, or your advantage will disappear.32. The underlined word “random” in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to _.A. equal B. amusing C. strange D. unpredictable33. Which of the following is TRUE about Wang Zhijian and his study?A. He found a new game theory called “conditional response”.B. He asked 360 students to play a total of 300 rounds of rock-paper-scissors.C. By studying the first few results, he discovered the pattern behind the game.D. His study suggests that the belief that rock-paper-scissors game is random is wrong.34. According to the study, if player A has just used rock to beat player Bs scissors, then A is more likely to choose _ and B is more likely to choose _.A. rock; paper B. rock; scissors C. scissors; rock D. paper; scissors35. What will Wang study about rock-paper-scissors in the future, according to the article?A. The functions related to the game that are planted into our brains.B. How human brains make quick decisions when competing in the game.C. The psychology behind the players who always win the game.D. How to improve players ability to predict opponents moves.第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Seven ways to find out what you really want in lifeBe good to yourselfYou cant pinpoint(准确指出) exactly what you want in life .Youre constantly sacrificing（牺牲） your time and dreams for other people. 36 Ask yourself: if you werent tied down by your job, family, or anything else, then what would you be doing right now?Regret nothingTo be good to yourself is not selfish. Its your life. Its time for you to live it exactly the way you want to. If you constantly regret things you did or didnt do in the past, then you wont be able to move forward. 37Figure out what you needSometimes its hard to figure out what you need. Sit down and think about what you need most. The freedom to express yourself? Love? Financial security? Something else? If it helps, you can make a list. Also think about the kind of legacy(遗产) you want to leave behind.38You can fly only by pushing back against something you dont want. Figure out what upsets you, and be specific about it. Dont just say that you hate your office job. Pinpoint exactly why you hate it. Could it be your strict boss? Your workload? Your meaningless job title? Or all of the above?Determine what makes you truly happyTheres no life to waste if youre happy with living it. 39 Being around children? Is it traveling? Owning a successful business? Financial freedom? Once you pinpoint the one thing that makes you happy the most, youll have a pretty clear idea of what you should struggle hard to get in your life. Let people around you know what youre trying to achieve. Dont keep your goals and desires to yourself. Voice it all out! If you tell people what youre trying to accomplish, they will most likely support you and give you new ideas. Sometimes mother does know best!Stay positiveLife doesnt always go how you want it. Dont feel discouraged as your plans stray(偏离). Take control. Instead of being anxious, try your best to advance with the changes. You will get there someday. 40 Youre just taking a little detour(绕道).A. Dont live in the past but live in the present!B. Sometimes a positive attitude is all you need to keep going.C. Determine what really bothers you.D. Think about what makes you happy.E. You have to put yourself first, because if you dont, then no one else will.F. Determine what you are going to do next.G. You should think of things carefully.第三部分：英语知识运用（共三节，满分55分）第一节完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Last summer, I travelled to Meixian County with my friends.
