Many people talk about sales growth, profit growth, and possession growth, but none of these will happen without personal growth. In fact Id like to have you memorize a most important sentence. It is “The key to your future is you yourself.” There are many things that will help you better your future. If you belong to a strong, dynamic（充满活力的）and progressive company, that will help. Good training will help. Strong leadership will help. If the neighbors stay civil（文明的）, that will help. If your relatives dont trouble you, that will helpAll these things will help. We can go on and on with the list; but remember, the things that Ive covered above just play minor（次要的）roles in helping you reach a good future. The major cause doesnt lie outside. It lies inside.Strangely enough, when two different men work in the same company, the first person may earn $1,000 a month, while the second may earn $10,000 a month. What causes the difference when they have the same job, use the same tools, and get the same training?The cause of the difference lies in believing, in trying, in accepting failures, in thinking, in a smile at people around, and in the ways of dealing with problems. All of these can be major causes of your good future. You can see all these come from inside. In fact, the real difference is you yourself. You are the key to your future. Teens are the most wonderful and important period in life. If you want a great future, begin to improve yourself from now on!24. Among all the things mentioned, which one is the most important in the authors opinion? A. Sales growth. B. Profit growth.C. Possession growth. D. Personal growth25. Which of the following may play a main role in influencing you future? A. Being determined. B. Working in good companies. C. Having rich relatives. D. Getting leaders help.26. All may cause the two mens different earnings EXCEPT that. A. the second person buys expensive houses or cars. B. the first person treats others badly. C. the second man has a positive attitude to problems. D. the first man gives up after failures.27. The passage is mainly written for. A. old people B. adults C. teenagers D. babiesCMany people write to newspapers and magazines to express their opinions. Letters to the editor must carry the writers full name, address and telephone number, although the information is not necessary for publication. This requirement to provide personal particulars is a clear indication that writers are responsible for what they say. When a writer wants his voice heard, he needs to claim ownership of his voice. Responsibility is the name of the game. “People today prefer living together to putting their signatures（签名，署名） on a marriage certificate because they refuse to accept responsibility for the relationship,” said social worker Ken Yip, “and this is what is causing a lot of family problems.” When we sign a paper, for example, a business contract or a bank document, the signature is a seal of consent, an agreement to take the matter seriously. Most governments and many organizations will not process written complaints if they do not bear the writers signature. The absence of a signature, they explain, tells us that the writer cannot be too serious and therefore does not deserve a reply. There are people who wish to remain anonymous(匿名的) for various reasons. Multi-billionaire Mr. King donates generously to charity several times a year. He gives simply because he wants to help but not for the publicity his donations may bring, and he doesnt want his good deeds to make news. In other cases, people insist on anonymity because they are afraid of the consequences of revealing their identity. Crime witnesses may be willing to assist the police, but most are unwilling to give their names when reporting a crime. Name or no name? The answer is very personal and lies in how much we want to get involved. We all have a name. It is a matter of responsibility to use it when we make a statement, a claim or an accusation. We all want to honor our own name, and it is only by stamping our expression of an opinion with our name that we honor what we say.28. What does the writer mean by saying “Responsibility is the name of the game”?AWriters should be responsible for their names.BWriters need to provide their personal information in the game.CNames are required to indicate writers responsibility for what they say.DPublications must bear the writers full name, address and phone number.29. The second paragraph suggests that a paper without a signature may_.Anot get a reply Bbe accepted all the timeCbecome a family problem Dhelp to end a relationship30. Some people dont want their names known because they are_.Aready for involvement Bhesitant to make a donationCafraid of an accusation Dunwilling to draw public attention31. The passage is mainly about_.Ahonor and writers Bsignature and responsibilityCidentity and signature Danonymity and signatureDFirst aid is emergency care for a victim of sudden illness or injury until more skillful medical treatment is available. First aid may save a life or improve certain vital signs including pulse, temperature, a clear airway, and breathing. In minor emergencies, first aid may prevent a victims condition from worsening and provide relief from pain. First aid must be given as quickly as possible. In the case of seriously injured, a few minutes can make the difference between complete recovery and loss of life.First aid measures depend upon a victims needs and providers level of knowledge and skill. Knowing what not to do in an emergency is as important as knowing what to do. Improperly moving a person with a neck injury , for example, can lead to permanent spinal(脊柱的) injury and paralysis( 瘫痪)。Despite the variety of injuries possible, several basic rules of first aid apply to all emergencies. The first step is to call for professional medical help. The victim, if conscious(有意识的)， should be reassured that medical aid has been requested, and ask for permission to provide any first aid. Next, assess the scene, asking other people or the injured persons family or friends about details of the injury or illness, any care that may have already been given, and preexisting conditions such as diabetes(糖尿病) or heart trouble. The victim should be checked for the medical card that describes special medical conditions. Unless the accident scene becomes unsafe or the victim may suffer further injury, do not move the victim.First aid requires rapid assessment of victims to determine whether life-threatening conditions exist. One method for assessing a victims condition is known by ABC, which stands for:A-Airway: is it open and clear?B-Breathing: is the person breathing? Look, listen, and feel for breathing.C-Circulation: is there a pulse? Is the person bleeding extremely?Check skin color and temperature for additional indications of circulation problems.32. Before we give first aid to a victim, it is very important for us to _.A. make sure what to do and what not to doB. refer to all kinds of handbooks on first aidC. remove the ring or bracelet he/she may be wearingD. take him/her to a hospital at once33. According to this article, first aid is usually provided by _A. professional doctors B. the victims family membersC. the victims friends D. those who are not necessarily professional doctors34. Which of the following is NOT true when you assess a victims condition?A. Checking whether there is a pulse. B. Looking, listening and feeling for breathing.C. Replacing his/her medical card. D. Examining whether the airway is open and clear.35. The purpose of the passage is to tell readers_.A. the importance of protecting the accident scene.B. some basic knowledge about first aid.C. what professional medical help is.D. who can give first aid.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。Writing A Letter To Your Future SelfJust imagine writing a letter to your future self 5 years from now, then opening it at that exact moment to see how much of it has come true. _36_As you read the letter in the future, you can assess how many things agree with your expectations in the past. _37_ Often times, the goals we set and our goal achievement process are affected by a lot of changes along the way.

As we sat around the table I heard Meg, who was _41_ a recent operation, talking to Judith, the manager of our project. “Thank you so much for _42_ my daughters to their dance lessons last week.” “Dont mention it,” Judith says, “It was nothing.”Knowing how _43_ Judiths schedule is, with her work, kids and aging parents, I found her driving Megs children to lessons unbelievably _44_. I was about to say more about this when Donna, another colleague, entered the room _45_. She apologized for being late, saying she just hosted a lunch for her friends who are over seventy. “That is so nice of you,” I say,_46_ how busy she was, how she didnt like to cook and clean. “Oh,” she said, waving her hand, “It was nothing.”_47_, I could still tell the _48_ in her voice. She did gain a sense of satisfaction from the entertainment offered to her friends.Seeing their _49_ to help others selflessly, I started thinking about the concept of “nothing”, this peaceful and generous way of living- had it really been nothing or were they simply saying that? It _50_ to me that once I spent a whole afternoon after work helping a friend _51_ a speech. I _52_ her to rearrange the sequence of the stories in the lecture to make it sound more _53_. After the fifth try, she finally _54_ it. She hugged me with _55_, saying thanks to me. I smiled and said it was nothing.Suddenly, I realized that helping someone was really something to me. I learned that giving from the heart doesnt _56_ mean sacrifice and hard work. The _57_ is finding something we love to do and finding someone who _58_ that something. Our generosity can benefit others _59_ ourselves. Once you have a good _60_ of it, its nothing. And its really something.41. A. adapting to B. taking up C. going through D. recovering from42.
