Mr. Johnson took the only escape routethrough the boot（行李箱）.MrJohnsons car had finished up in a ditch(沟渠) at Romney Marsin, Kent after skidding on ice and hitting a bank“Fortunately, the water began to come in only slowly,” MrJohnson said“I couldnt force the doors because they were jammed against the walls of the ditch and dared not open the windows because I knew water would come flooding in.”MrJohnson, a sweet salesman of Sitting Home, Kent, first tried to attract the attention of other motorists by sounding the horn and hammering on the roof and bootThen he began his struggle to escapeLater he said, “It was really a half penny that saved my lifeIt was the only coin I had in my pocket and I used it to unscrew the back seat to get into the bootI hammered desperately with a hammer trying to make someone hear, but no help came.”It took ten minutes to unscrew the seat, and a further five minutes to clear the sweet samples from the bootThen MrJohnson found a wrench and began to work on the boot lockFifteen minutes passed by “It was the only chance I hadFinally it gave, but as soon as I moved the boot lid, the water and mud poured inI forced the lid down into the mud and scrambled clear as the car filled up.”His hands and arms cut and bruised(擦伤), MrJohnson got to Beckett Farm nearby, where he was looked after by the farmers wife, MrsLucy BatesHuddled in a blanket, he said, “That thirty minutes seemed like hours.” Only the tips of the car wheels were visible, police said last nightThe vehicle had sunk into two feet of mud at the bottom of the ditch56What is the best title for this newspaper article?AThe Story of MrJohnson, A Sweet SalesmanBCar Boot Can Serve As The Best Escape RouteCDriver Escapes Through Car BootDThe Driver Survived A Terrible Car Accident57Which of the following objects is the most important to MrJohnson?AThe hammerBThe coinCThe screwDThe horn58Which statement is true according to the passage?AMrJohnsons car stood on its boot as it fell downBMrJohnson could not escape from the door because it was full of sweet jamCMrJohnsons car accident was partly due to the slippery roadDMrJohnson struggled in the pouring mud as he unscrewed the back seat59Finally it gave （Paragraph 5） means that _ALuckily the door was torn away in the endBAt last the wrench went brokenCThe lock came open after all his effortsDThe chance was lost at the last minute60It may be inferred from the passage that _Athe ditch was along a quiet country roadBthe accident happened on a clear warm dayCthe police helped MrJohnson get out of the ditchDMrJohnson had a tender wife and was well attendedBFive years ago, David Smith wore an expensive suit to work every day“I was a clothes addict,” he jokes“I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled” Today David wears casual clothes khaki pants and sports shirt to the officeHe hardly ever wears a necktie“Im working harder than ever,” David says, “and I need to feel comfortable”More and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to workIn the United StatesThe change from formal to casual office wear has been gradualIn the early 1990s, many companies allowed their employees to wear casual clothes on Friday （but only on Friday）This became known as “dress-down Friday” of “casual Friday” “What started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for employees has really become an everyday thing” said business consultant Maisly JonesWhy have so many companies started allowing their employees to wear casual clothes? One reason is that its easier for a company to attract new employees if it has a casual dress code“A lot of young people dont want to dress up for work,” says the owner of a software company, “so its hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code” Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothesIn a study conducted by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers said that they believe that casual dress improves employee moraleOnly 4 percent of employers said that casual dress has a negative impact on productivitySupporters of casual office wear also argue that a casual dress code helps them save money“Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day,” one person said“For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes”61David Smith refers to himself as having been “a clothes addict,” because Ahe often wore khaki pants and a sports shirtBhe couldnt stand a clean appearanceChe wanted his clothes to look neat all the timeDhe didnt want to spend much money on clothes62David Smith wears casual clothes now, because Athey make him feel at ease when workingBhe cannot afford to buy expensive clothesChe looks handsome in casual clothesDhe no longer works for any company63According to this passage, which of the following statements is false?AMany employees dont like a conservative dress codeBcomfortable clothes make employees more productiveCA casual clothes code is welcomed by young employeesDAll the employers in the USare for casual office wear64According to this passage, which of the following statements is trueACompany workers started to dress down about twenty years agoBDress-down has become an everyday phenomenon since the early 1990sC“Dress-down Friday” was first given as a favor from employersDMany workers want to wear casual clothes to impress people56In this passage, the following advantages of casual office wear are mentioned except Asaving employees moneyBmaking employees more attractiveCimproving employees motivationDmaking employees happierCNext time a customer comes to your office, offer him a cup of coffee. And when youre doing your holiday shopping online, make sure youre holding a large glass of iced teaThe physical sensation（感觉） of warmth encourages emotional warmth, while a cold drink in hand prevents you from making unwise decisionsthose are the practical lesson being drawn from recent research by psychologist John ABarghPsychologists have known that one persons perception（感知）of anothers “warmth” is a powerful determiner in social relationshipsJudging someone to be either “warm” or “cold” is a primary consideration, even trumping evidence that a “cold” person may be more capableMuch of this is rooted in very early childhood experiences, Bargh argues, when babies conceptual sense of the world around them is shaped by physical sensations, particularly warmth and coldnessClassic studies by Harry Harlow, published in 1958, showed monkeys preferred to stay close to a cloth “mother” rather than one made of wire, even when the wire “mother” carried a food bottleHarlows work and later studies have led psychologists to stress the need for warm physical contact from caregivers to help young children grow into healthy adults with normal social skillsFeelings of “warmth” and “coldness” in social judgments appear to be universalAlthough no worldwide study has been done, Bargh says that describing people as “warm” or “cold” is common to many cultures, and studies have found those perceptions influence judgment in dozens of countriesTo test the relationship between physical and psychological warmth, Bargh conducted an experiment which involved 41 college studentsA research assistant who was unaware of the studys hypotheses (假设), handed the students either a hot cup of coffee, or a cold drink, to hold while the researcher filled out a short information form: The drink was then handed backAfter that, the students were asked to rate the personality of “Person A” based on a particular descriptionThose who had briefly held the warm drink regarded Person A as warmer than those who had held the iced drink“We are grounded in our physical experiences even when we think abstractly,” says Bargh66According to Paragraph 1, a persons emotion may be affected by _Athe visitors to his officeBthe psychology lessons he hasChis physical feeling of coldnessDthe things he has bought online67The author mentions Harlows experiment to show that _Aadults should develop social skillsBbabies need warm physical contactCcaregivers should be healthy adultsDmonkeys have social relationships68In Barghs experiment, the students were asked to _Aevaluate someones personalityBwrite down their hypotheseCfill out a personal information formDhold coffee and cold drink alternatively69We can infer from the passage that _Aabstract thinking does not come from physical experiencesBfeelings of warmth and coldness are studied worldwideCphysical temperature affects how we see othersDcapable persons are often cold to others70What would be the best title for the passage?ADrinking for Better Social RelationshipsBExperiments of Personality EvaluationCDeveloping Better Drinking HabitsDPhysical Sensations and EmotionsDTODAY, Friday, November 12JAZZ with the Mike Thomas Jazz Band at The Derby Arms.
