A press commentB Sixteen years ago I learned this lesson. And I learned it in the back of a New York City taxi cab. Heres what happened.I got in a taxi, and we took off for Grand Central Station. We were driving in the right lane (车道) when all of a sudden, a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver used his brakes (车闸), the tires made a loud noise, and at the very last moment our car stopped just one inch (英寸) from the back of the other car.I couldnt believe it. But then I couldnt believe what happened next. The driver of the other car, the guy who almost caused a big accident, turned his head around and he started yelling bad words at us. I couldnt believe it! And this is when my taxi driver told me what I now call: “The Law of the Garbage Truck (垃圾车).” He said。But then heres what really blew me away. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. So, I said: “Why did you just do that? This guy could have killed us! “Many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage piles up, they look for a place to dump (倾倒) it. And if you let them, theyll dump it on you.“So one day when someone wants to dump on you, dont take it personally. Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. Believe me. Youll be happier.”So I started thinking, how often do I let Garbage Trucks run right over me? And how often do I take their garbage and spread it to other people at work, at home, or on the street? It was then that I said: “I dont want their garbage and Im not going to spread it anymore.” I began to see Garbage Trucks. I see the load people are carrying. I see them coming to dump it. And like my taxi driver, I dont take it personally. I just smile, wave, wish them well, and I move on.24.What happened to the author on his way to Grand Central Station? A.

His taxi suddenly got a flat tire (爆胎).25.When the author saw his taxi driver smile and wave at the driver of the black car, he _.

A. Fight back immediately. B. Smile and move on. C. Call the police for help. D. Dump it on someone elseCIts said that one can know the nature of both man and woman by their behaviors at table. Indeed table manners are closely related to ones life and ones job. As the saying goes “When in Rome, do as the Romans do”, English learners should know what the proper table manners are in western countries if invited to a dinner party. The followings are some suggestions that may be helpful to you.The first important thing you need to know is when to begin eating. Before dinner, the hostess usually serves guests first and herself last. So do not eat as soon as you are served but wait until the hostess has also been served and has picked up her fork as the signal to begin. But at a large dinner party where there are many guests, the hostess may ask everyone to begin eating as soon as they are served.If you want to talk while eating, your mouth should certainly not be full of food because it is considered very bad manners. But it is possible to speak with a little food in the mouth. When you have to answer a question, naturally you must wait until the food in your mouth is eaten.When a dish is passed to you with a fork in the plate, you should use it to take your food. Do not take too much at a time and make sure that the other guests can have enough food.Anyway, good table manners are very important and they are not so simple as we thought. But it is necessary for one to know what good table manners are because they can help one succeed in his life!28. Table manners are closely related to ones _ in paragraph 1.A. life and name B. job and age C. job and name D. life and job29. What is the first important thing to know at a dinner party?A. What to eat. B. Whether to talk.C. When to begin eating. D. How to use forks.30. If you have to answer a question while eating, you should _.A. refuse to answer it B. answer it immediatelyC. tell him/ her to ask it later D. wait until the food in your mouth is eaten31. In which section(栏目) of a newspaper can you find such a passage?A. Sports. B. Culture. C. Music. D. News.DIts holiday season and time for shopping. There are a bunch of items on your shopping lists ranging from small gifts, toys and festive decorations to Christmas and New Year cards. Whats your first reaction to products labeled “Made in China.”? If you still tend to relate “Made in China” to poor quality, you need to update your ideas. Chinas ability to produce high-quality products has been recognized by a growing number of foreigners. Its a misunderstanding to associate low quality with “Made in China”.Cameron Purdy, a Web user, says that just because China manufactures poor-quality products does not mean it cannot manufacture high-quality products. He explains that the poor-quality products one purchases in the US for example, are made in the quality that the American companies ask for. “The price that you pay for the product has no relationship to the cost of its manufacturing,” suggested Purdy. For example, for an item priced at $20 in the US, the cost of manufacturing it paid by the American company is usually less than $1. To guarantee the room for profit(利润), the Chinese co-manufacturer spends less than $1 to produce the item.Amanda Wu, who lives in Shanghai, noted that many top brands have manufacturing factories located in China, and the most convincing example of Chinas manufacturing quality is Apple products. On the back of the iPhone, one can find the product is Made in China “Designed by Apple in California. Assembled (装备）in China.” Chinese and foreign Web users commented that some Chinese products with good reputations around the world are Haier, Lenovo, GREE, Huawei and China Railway High-speed.On the other hand, foreign misunderstandings can sometimes affect Chinese peoples minds. For instance, when Chinese people travel abroad, some would still avoid buying products Made in China. Its time for the world to stop relating Made in China with low-quality products. Just remember, you get what you pay for.32. How does Purdy make his point more convincing?A. By using quotes. B. By making experiments.C. By making comparisons. D. By giving examples.33. How many Chinese products are well received worldwide in the text?A. Seven. B. Six C. Five. D. Four.34. When abroad, Chinese people dont buy Chinese products because of _.A. High price B. Low qualityC. Old fashions D. Foreign misunderstandings35. What is the main idea of the text?A. Chinese products are the best in the world.B. How to tell apart the quality of Chinese products.C. How to improve the quality of Chinese products.D. Chinese products dont have to mean poor quality.第二节 七选五（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。选项中有两处为多余选项。To Be ConfidentConfidence of success is almost success. Heres how to believe in yourself.Remember that everyone struggles with confidence.
