Mr. Johnson took the only escape routethrough the boot(行李箱). Mr. Johnsons 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,” Mr. Johnson 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.” Mr. Johnson, 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 boot. Then he began his struggle to escape. Later he said, “It was really a half penny that saved my life. It was the only coin I had in my pocket and I used it to unscrew the back seat to get into the boot. I 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 boot. Then Mr. Johnson found a wrench and began to work on the boot lock. Fifteen minutes passed by. “It was the only chance I had. Finally it gave, but as soon as I moved the boot lid, the water and mud poured in. I forced the lid down into the mud and scrambled clear as the car filled up.” His hands and arms cut and bruised(擦伤), Mr. Johnson got to Beckett Farm nearby, where he was looked after by the farmers wife, Mrs. Lucy Bates. Huddled in a blanket, he said, “That thirty minutes seemed like hours.” Only the tips of the car wheels were visible, police said last night. The vehicle had sunk into two feet of mud at the bottom of the ditch. 56. What is the best title for this newspaper article?A. The Story of Mr. Johnson, A Sweet Salesman B. Car Boot Can Serve As The Best Escape Route C. Driver Escapes Through Car Boot D. The Driver Survived A Terrible Car Accident 57. Which of the following objects is the most important to Mr. Johnson?A. The hammer.B. The coin. C. The screw. D. The horn. 58. “Finally it gave” (Paragraph 5) means that _. A. Luckily the door was torn away in the end B. At last the wrench went broken C. The lock came open after all his efforts D. The chance was lost at the last minute 59. It may be inferred from the passage that _. A. the ditch was along a quiet country road B. the accident happened on a clear warm day C. the police helped Mr. Johnson get out of the ditch D. Mr. Johnson had a tender wife and was well attended BKey Factors of SuccessIs there a success personality? Some winning combination of qualities that leads almost naturally to achievement? If so, exactly what is that secret success formula (公式), and can anyone develop it?At the Gallup Organization we recently focused in depth on success, examining the attitudes of 1,500 successful people selected casually from Whos Who in America. Our research finds out a number of qualities that occur regularly among top achievers. Here is one of the most important, that is, common sense.Common sense is the most outstanding quality possessed by our respondents (回答者). 79% award themselves a top score in this quality. And 61% say that common sense was very important in contributing to their success.To most, common sense means the ability to present sound, practical judgments on everyday affairs. To do this, one has to sweep aside extra ideas and get right to the core (核心) of what matters. A Texas oil and gas businessman puts it this way, The key ability for success is simplifying. In meeting arrangement and industrial management, reducing a complex problem to the simplest term is highly important.Is common sense a quality a person is born with, or can you do something to increase it? The oi! mans answer is that common sense can definitely be developed. He attributes his to learning how to debate in school. Another way to increase your store of common sense is to observe it in others, learning from their and your own mistakes.Besides common sense, there are many other factors that influence success knowing your field, self-reliance, intelligence, the ability to get things done, leadership, creativity, relationships with others, and of course, luck. But common sense stands out. If you develop these qualities, youll succeed. And you might even find yourself listed in Whos Who someday.(Words: 302 Minutes: 4.5)60. It can be learned that common sense _.A. is something that common people like bestB. is a popular quality a person is born withC. is something that enables one to form correct opinionsD. is a quality that is possessed by common people61 According to the passage, when trying to solve a problem, we had better _.A. get experience through practiceB. pay attention to the most important part of itC. keep on learning as much as possibleD. rely on ourselves as well as luck62. The passage is mainly concerned with _.A. organizational ability and good working habitsB. the way to gain big profits and achieve fame and successC. knowledge and interest which are primary to successD. what successful people have in common63. According to the oil businessman, how can a person develop his / her common sense?A. Become a businessman.B. Learn how to debate and learn from mistakes.C. Become famous.D. Simplify things.CThere is good and bad news for parents today. The word mother has been voted the most beautiful word in the English language. But father failed even to make it on to the list of the 70 best words compiled(汇编) in a survey of thousands of non-English speakers across the globe. From Ankara to Zurich, mother was voted above love, smile and blossom.Mother-in-law was also nowhere to be seen. Funny that maybe the hyphens(连字符) disqualified it.In second place was passion, followed by smile, love and eternity, with fantastic, destiny, freedom, liberty and tranquility completing the top 10.The results were revealed by the British Council which carried out a huge survey of more than 40,000 people in 102 non-English speaking countries.The study was undertaken to celebrate the groups 70th anniversary and it threw up a few surprising entries to the list.Its interesting that mother, the only word of the 70 that describes a direct relationship between people, came top of the poll(投票), said British Council spokesman Greg Selby. it is great to see words in the survey that are so positive and suggestive of the British Councils purpose - words such as freedom, liberty, peace, renaissance and destiny.Those surveyed were allowed to choose their words on either meaning or sound, said Mr. Selby. This explained why words that are satisfying to pronounce, like flip-flop, made the list.Famous mothers like Kate Winslet, Elle Macpherson and Claudia Schiffer have all done their bit to make the word popular.Kate, 28, even pulled out of Woody Allens new film to spend more time with her young family.Singer Robbie Williams is proud to declare his love for his mother, while comedian Peter Kay endured a marathon British tour to pay for a new house for his mom.The mood was added to by Britney Spears, yesterday as she expressed her love for her mother.She said: My mom was and still is a supermom. She is just so much fun and I think the reason why I relate to her so well is because shes a young mom.She added: Mom, thanks for being the best role modelyou rock. 64. Which of the following is true?A. Father wasnt on the list of the 70 best words in a survey of English speakers all over the world.B. Mother-in-law wasnt on the list of the best words.C. Only in Ankara and Zurich, mother was voted the first beautiful word.D. Mother is not the only word of the 70 that shows a direct relationship between people.65. Which of the following shows the correct order of the first five words?A. Mother, smile, passion, love and eternity.B. Mother, passion, smile, love and eternity.C. Mother, smile, love, eternity and passion.D. Mother-in-law, passion, smile, love and eternity.66. What can we conclude from the passage?A. Its Kate Winslet, Elle Macpherson and Claudia Schiffer that made their efforts to make the word mother popular.B. Kate stopped shooting a new film in order to stay with her family.C. Peter Kay cook part in a marathon in order to pay for a new house for his mother.D. Britney Spears took pride in her mother.67. What do you think is the b
