Besides, in some cases, they are considered to have greater leadership potential (潜力). That may explain why the power-buzz look has become popular among business leaders in recent years.Albert Mannes, Wharton management lecturer, said he was encouraged to do the research after noticing that he was treated with more respect when he shaved off his thinning hair.Mannes did three experiments to test peoples impression of men with shaved heads. In one of the experiments, he showed 344 subject photos of the same men in two versions: one showing the men with hair and the other showing them with their hair digitally removed, so their heads appear shaved. In all three tests, the subject report found the men with shaved heads are more dominant(占优势的) than their hairy counterparts(对应的人).The study found that men with thinning hair were viewed as the least attractive and powerful. For those men,the solution could be as cheap and simple as a shave.New Yorkimage consultant Julie Rath advised her clients to get closely cropped when they start thinning up top. “There is something really strong, powerful and confident about laying it all bare(光秃的),” she said, describing the thinning look as kind of raunchy(不修边幅的).Not everyone needs a bare head. Rick Devine, 55, the CEO of Devine Capital Partners, advised executive candidates attracted by their clippers to keep their hair closely cropped, rather than completely shaved. “It is way too much image risk,” he said, “The best thing you can do in a business meeting is to make your look not an issue.”29. We can learn from paragraph 1 that men with shaved heads have more chances to _.A. be liked by their leader B. become business leadersC. be laughed at by their leaders D. feel stressed from their work30. When did Albert Mannes decide to do the research?A. Long before he shaved his own thinning hair.B. When he was looked down upon because of his thinning hair.C. When people treated him more respectfully after he shaved his thinning hair.D. When he noticed that others began to shave their thinning hair.31. The underlined part in Paragraph 4 probably means that the solution is to _.A. buy a pair of cheap scissors. B. have a cheap shaveC. keep their thinning hair D. shave their own thinning hair32. Whats the authors attitude toward mens bare heads?A. Objective B. Negative C. Positive D. DoubtfulDMuch meaning can be conveyed, clearly, with our eyes, so it is often said that eyes can speak.Do you have such kind of experience? In a bus you may look at a stranger, but not too long. And if he is sensing that he is being stared at, he may feel uncomfortable.The same in daily life. If you are looked at for more than necessary, you will look at yourself up and down, to see if there is anything wrong with you. If nothing goes wrong, you will feel angry toward others stare at you that way. Eyes do speak, right?Looking too long at someone may seem to be rude and aggressive. But things are different when it comes to stare at the opposite sex. If a man glances at a woman for more than 10 seconds and refuses to move his gaze, his intentions are obvious, that is, he wishes to attract her attention, to make her understand that he is admiring her.However, the normal eye contact for two people engaged in conversation is that the speaker will only look at the listener from time to time, in order to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what the former is speaking, to tell him that he is attentive.If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking, as if he tries to dominate you, you will feel uncomfortable. A poor liar usually exposes himself by looking too long at the victim, since he believes in the false idea that to look straight in the eye is a sign of honest communication. Quite the contrary.In fact, continuous eye contact is confined to lovers only, who will enjoy looking at each other tenderly for a long time, to show affection that words cannot express.Evidently, eye contact should be done according to the relationship between two people and the specific situation.33. Which of the following behaviors is proper according to the passage?.A. To the opposite sex, stare at him or her.B. To a stranger, avoid looking at him or her.C. In a conversation, look at the listener all the time.D. Make eye contact depending on the relationship and different situations.34. If two persons exchange eye contact gently for long, what is probably their relationship?A. Boss and employee. B. Lovers.C. Teacher and student. D. Strangers35. Whats the best title of the passage?A. Dont stare at others B. Body language is importantC. Eyes can speak D. Eye contact benefits you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Secret codes（密码）keep messages private. Banks, companies, and government agencies use secret codes in doing business, especially when information is sent by computer.People have used secret codes for thousands of years.36Code breaking never lags（落后）far behind code making. The science of creating and reading coded messages is called cryptography.There are three main types of cryptography.37For example, the first letters of “My elephant eats too many eels” spell out the hidden message “Meet me.”38You might represent each letter with a number, for example. Lets number the letters of the alphabet, in order, from 1 to 26. If we substitute a number for each letter, the message “Meet me” would read “135520205.”A code uses symbols to replace words, phrases, or sentences. To read the message of a real code, you must have a code book.39For example, “bridge” might stand for “meet” and “out” might stand for “me.” The message “Bridge out” would actually mean “Meet me.”40However, it is also hard to keep a code book secret for long. So codes must be changed frequently.A. It is very hard to break a code without the code book.B. In any language, some letters are used more than others.C. Only people who know the keyword can read the message.D. As long as there have been codes, people have tried to break them.E. You can hide a message by having the first letters of each word spell it out.F. With a code book, you might write down words that would stand for other words.G. Another way to hide a message is to use symbols to stand for specific letters of the alphabet.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题15分，满分30分）A blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feetHe held up a41which said：“I am blind, please help”There were only a few42in the hatA man was walking byHe took some change from hispocketand 43it into the hatHethentook the sign, turned it around, and wrote some_ 44 He put it back so thateveryone who passed45would see the new wordsSoon the hat began to46There were a lot more people47money to the blind boyThat afternoon the man who had48the sign came to seehow things wereThe boy49his footsteps and asked, “Are you the one who changed my sign this morning?
