She was the oldest runner in this marathon as well as the fastest in the 90-to-94 year-old group.She finished the 26.2 mile race in 7 hours 7 minutes 42 seconds, breaking the earlier record of 8 hours 53 minutes 8 seconds set by Mavis Lindgren in 1997. While these are her first records, Harriet, who ran at the speed of 16 minutes and 20 seconds a mile, is no stranger to this competition. She has taken part in 15 of the last 16 San Diego Rock N Roll marathons and only missed last year, because she had a cancer, which she successfully beat.Whats even more amazing is that the grandmother who ran the marathon alongside her 55-year old son Brenny, took up the sport at the age of 76! Harriet says that she normally trains with a group. However this year she decided to run alone because she had a hard time keeping up, given that most of them are about 60-70 years younger.Harriet says she runs to keep healthy and raise money for a hospital, which is close to her heart, thanks to her familys cancer history. Over the years, she has raised over $90,000 for the hospital. And she is not done yet! Harriet says she plans to train harder and come back even stronger, in 2020!28.

But revealing too much about yourself to colleagues or managers can cause difficulties and even endanger your work.Its vital to strike the right balance between getting along with colleagues and keeping your privacy safe. “As a matter of fact, it takes skills to communicate in the office. You can neither chat too much, nor be too silent and shut yourself off from others,” said Yang Yudan, vice HR director (人事经理) at P&G. According to her, there are several safe topics to talk about with colleagues during the break, such as weather or movies. Women like to talk about makeup and clothing, while men are fond of sports and online games.But discussing your private life, such as relationship, habits or health conditions, is potentially risky. Cui Xia, 21, who has been working for an IT company for only 2 months, learned this hard way when she found out that everyone knew she had broken up with her boyfriend. “I spoke about it with two colleagues in the tearoom and told my friend via phone, and then the news spread.” And her boss finally heard about it and asked her not to let it affect her work performance.Sometimes revealing private matters in a thoughtless manner can result in disastrous consequences. Liang Kun, 26, had to resign from his job at a trading company last week after discussing his income with colleagues during a lunch break. “I didnt realize it was such a serious issue until a senior member of staff went to find the boss, asking why I got a higher salary than her,” said Liang. “Then our HR told me its forbidden to talk about payments in the office.” HR expert Yang Yudan also reminds us that paychecks are your own business. Its unwise to share this information with others, no matter how close you are.To sum up, Yang Yudan advises office workers to be more aware of their images when talking to colleagues. “When you share your personal life, it will be recorded on your invisible resume (无形的简历) and may slow down your career progression.”32.Which of the following topics is NOT suitable when chatting in the office?A. Makeup B. Football matchesC. Annual earnings D. TV shows such as Running Man33.We may know from the passage that _.A. women often talk more about their personal affairs than men.B. to avoid getting into trouble, youd better keep silent at work.C. its wise to talk about how much you earn each month with your colleagues.D. revealing too much about your privacy may have a negative effect on your career.34.Whats the purpose of the passage?A. To mention a phenomenon. B. To provide some suggestions.C. To give professional guides. D. To offer necessary warnings.35.The best title for this passage is _.A. At work, No chatting! B. Desire for privacy.C. At work, Keep it to yourself! D. Learn to respect others privacy.第2节 （共5题 每题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。其中有两项为多余选项。注意：1.请将此题答案填涂在机读卡上。2.若选项为E的请共同填涂A和B两项。若选项为F的请共同填涂A和C两项。若选项G的请共同填涂A和D两项。For over one hundred and fifty years, Americans of all social classes have worn blue jeans 36 Whether they are worn for work or for fashion todayStrauss invention continues to be popular not only among Americans but also among people around the worldLevi Strauss was born in Germany in 1829 37 He grew up in Kentucky before moving to New York in 1847Before becoming an American citizen and moving to the West in 1853, Strauss worked in his brothers dry goods businessThis gave him a chance to produce his famous inventionAfter the gold rush of 1949, Strauss decided to move to the West to seek his fortunesStrauss did not want to be a person who searched an area for mineralsInstead, he knew he could make a good living by selling supplies to the minersAt first, he planned to sell sewing supplies and cloth 38 When he heard miners complaining that their clothes were easily broken or they usually tore their pockets during mining, he decided to use a special fabric to make pants for the minersThese pants proved so popular that he quickly ran out of materials to make moreIn 1873, Strauss received a letter from a Jewish tailor named Jacob Davis who had invented a process of connecting pockets with copper rivets（铆钉）This made the pants last a long timeBecause Davis did not have the money to patent his idea, he offered to share it with Strauss if Strauss would agree to pay for the patent 39 The business has been growing ever since and Levi Strauss company is now one of the largest clothing companies in the worldBy the time Strauss died in 1902, he had made a great contribution to American fashion 40AAs a young boy, he moved with his family to the United StatesBNobody knew what kind of material was suitableCHe did and Levi jeans have been made with metal rivets ever sinceDHowever, he did not get much business for those productsEHe also made a great contribution to Americas clothing industryFSince they were invented by Levi Strauss, they have become a symbol of Americanconsumer cultureGAs the business grew, Strauss got much money from it第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节）第一节完形填空（共20题 每题1分 共20分）Getting kids interested in science at an early age is very important.
