I was midway through a masters degree at The London School of Economics and Political Science and had been hired as a part-time reporter for a finance website. I got a great one-month review and my boss asked if I was interested in staying with the company after graduation.However, _41_ graduate studies with work was challenging. To deal with it, I checked my real _42_ at my office door. I came in to work, greeted my colleagues and listened _43_ I contributed in each morning meeting. The small team I worked with often seemed busy, so rather than giving ideas that might get turned down, I stayed _44_.After four months, my boss called me into his office. The meeting was going well _45_ he told me that despite (尽管) the great work I had produced, the team had held a meeting and decided, “We dont think its the right _46_ for you.”I must have looked _47_. “Youre ambitious, intelligent and will be very successful,” my boss said. “But you havent made enough of an effort to_48_ the team. You lost the enthusiasm you showed in your interview. That wont work long term, and if I could give you one piece of advice, it would be to let your _49_ down.”I couldnt believe that _50_ well at my job wasnt enough to keep it. But I knew my boss was _51_. They knew when they hired me that I had no experience in finance reporting, yet they took a/an _52_ on me. In meetings I usually contributed last _53_ I had heard everyone elses suggestions. I did it to show that I was a listener, but also to hide my fears. They had liked the person who walked into the _54_, and they didnt respect me when I hid that person from them.Because we work so hard for success, we dont like to think that we hurt ourselves sometimes. But each of us must change when necessary. In trying to earn a full time job, I “leaned back” in order to not show too much of myself or my _55_ of expertise (专长). I learned the hard way that it isnt the way to achieve your goals.41.A. balancingB. applyingC. connectingD. satisfying42.A. dressingB. appearanceC. scheduleD. self43.A. rather thanB. more thanC. other thanD. less than44.A. backB. upC. awayD. on45.A. sinceB. whenC. afterD. until46.A. suitB. wayC. decisionD. fit47.A. terrificB. worriedC. confusedD. terrible48.A. serveB. joinC. mixD. support49.A. guardB. mannerC. respectD. courage50.A. operatingB. performingC. arrangingD. proving51.A. intelligentB. hard C. backwardD. right 52.A. benefitB. opportunityC. chanceD. advantage53.A. beforeB. afterC. becauseD. unless54.A. officeB. collegeC. interviewD. company55.A. lackB. techniqueC. surveyD. degree第三部分: 阅读理解(共11小题; 每小题2分, 满分22分)请认真阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 ABeing a grown-up isnt always as good as people say. Youve got the rent and the bills to pay. Work can be hard and youve got the transport problem to cope with. Its no surprise, then, that those who head to the United States to spend the summer working as counselors (顾问) on a childrens camp often come back sharing their experience with excitement. Every day of their nine- or ten-week placement is spent working with kids who go there for some serious fun, so its not hard for the counselor to enjoy themselves, too. Bec Hardy, from Australia, spent a summer working for Camp America in Connecticut and insists, despite its being hard work and a lot of responsibility, it was the best thing shes done since leaving home. “There were about seventy counselors working on the camp, so it was a great way to meet new people,” she says. Having worked an extra month at the end of camp, Hardy got to learn more about the jobs that are done behind the scenes, such as in the kitchen and with building work. “The people doing these jobs tended to be from non-English-speaking countries and the jobs were harder work, although they did get paid a bit more than counselors,” says Hardy, who now works processing new applications for Camp America. What are her tips for those thinking about working on a camp? “Pack light and pack your least favorite clothes. Expect hard work and plan some time for sleeping after the ten weeks!” she says. Suze Cossey, from New Zealand, spent four summers working for Camp Counselors USA in Maine. “Id have to say the best part of it is meeting new people,” she agrees. In her last camp job she shared her log cabin with five fifteen-year-old girls. “It was like being a big sister and I still keep in touch with some of them.” She managed to save quite a bit of money, too. “You dont spend anything while youre there, as all the food and the accommodation are provided,” she says. “Afterwards, while I was travelling around the States, I was invited to stay in the homes of the friends Id made.”56. What is the advantage of working at a camp identified by both Bec Hardy and Suze Cossey?A. Meeting new people from different places.B. Saving quite a bit of money.C. Learning something new about building work.D. Knowing how to pack light. 57. Suze Cossey was able to save money during her time at Camp Counselors USA because . A. she didnt have to buy food or shared her log cabin with five girls B. She didnt have to pay for accommodation or worked in the kitchen C. She didnt have to buy food or pay for accommodation D. She didnt have to pay for accommodation or did building work. 58. According to the passage, which statement is TRUE? A. The children who go to camp do so unwillingly. B. Its a good idea for counselors to pack lots of light clothes. C. Counselors were paid less than the kitchen workers. D. At the moment, Bec Hardy works for Camp Counselors USA.B If you could be any butterfly, which butterfly would you be? Thats the question facing Camille Fox as she sits on her purple exercise mat (垫子). She imagines the butterfly pose - knees apart, the soles (脚掌) of her feet touching. “Hold on to your butterfly wings.” Jodi Komitor teaches her class in New York City. Camille holds her toes tightly and prepares for flight. Komitor continues: “Lean back, open your butterfly wings and fly!” Her students then flap their legs. Komitors students will also become sleeping lions and snakes before the 45-minute class is over. They will walk on their hands and feet, balance on one leg and sit chanting, “Om”. Similar classes are being offered across the country. These parents are introducing their children to yoga in the belief that balanced lives begin with balanced children. And with their easy flexibility (灵活性) and willing imaginations, kids are proving to be natural yogis. Alice Christensen, president of the American Yoga, is firmly against children under the age of 16 doing yoga positions. “Yoga exercise brings on hormonal(荷尔蒙) changes,” she says. “Children should not practice it because it affects their growth system.” There are no studies supporting that contention, but Christensen says there has not been enough time to assess (评估) yogas long-term damage to young bodies. However, instructors like Marita Gardner-Anopol, who teaches yoga and pre-schools and elementary schools in New Jersey, disagree. “Does ballet affect natural changes in the body? Skiing? Ice skating?” asks Gardner-Anopol. “Come on. Children are active from the time they are three.” In fact, most children take yoga in addition to other sports. Solomon Taslitz, age 15, says his yoga classes in Los Angeles-which include headstands, handstands and standing poses-have improved his skills in basketball. Chandler Garland, age 7, takes ballet and jazz dance as well as yoga. “When I get tense and crazy it helps me to be quieter and relaxed,” she says. She adds that yoga has helped her focus on her homework.59. “Yoga could be harmful to young children.” This is the opinion of .A. Camille Fox B. Alice Christensen C. Marita Gardner-AnopolD. Jodi Komitor60. Which of the following is NOT suggested as a benefit of yoga?A. Yoga helps maintain normal body weight.B. Yoga helps develop ones good balance.C. Yoga has a calming effect.D. Yoga helps concentration.61. Which word below is closest in meaning to “contention” (Paragraph 3)?A. Feeling B. FactC. DiscoveryD. Opinion62. When Marita Gardner-Anopol says “Come on” (Paragraph 3), she is expressing .A. agreement.B. encouragement.C. disbelief.D. surprise.C Pierre Dukan, the nutritionist behind the popular but controversial (有争议的) Dukan diet, has suggested that France deal with child obesity by giving extra exam marks for slimness. Dukan, who has sold 8 million copies of his diet book worldwide, made the proposal in a 250-page book called An open Letter to the Future President, which he sent out to 16 candidates (候选人) for Frances presidential election. The plan calls for high school students to be allowed to take a so-called “ideal weight” option in their final year exams, “the baccalaureat”, under which they would earn extra points if they kept a body mass index (BMI) of between 18 and 25. Those already overweight at the start of the two-year course would score double points if they managed to slim down over a period of two years. “Its a fantastic motivator (动力),” Dukan told the reporters. “The baccalaureat is really important in France. Kids want to get it, and their parents want them to get it even more, so why not get them to work together on nutrition?”Weight gain is becoming an increasing problem in France and experts say sedentary (久坐不动) lifestyle and poor nutrition are to blame. World Health Organization(WHO) figures show 50.7 percent of the population were overweight in 2010, including 18.2 percent classed as obese.“Theres a real problem. Since the 1960s, the number of overweight people in France has risen from 500,000 to 22 million and its going up every year,” Dukan said. “When you reach those levels, its no longer a health problem, it becomes a political problem, and the leaders of the nation need to worry about it.”As well as the suggestion for students, Dukans book contains 119 further suggestions for the future president on ways to fight obesity. One idea is the creation of a French fast-food restaurant serving more nutritional versions of burgers and fries. Dukan has earned an international reputation as a diet guru (专家) to the stars, although his methods have drawn criticism from some health experts and weight watchers who say his high-protein meal plan causes tiredness, bad breathe and dizziness. But he is also very active in promoting healthier lifestyles.He recently met the manager from McDonalds France with a suggestion for a healthy “McDukan” burger, made with low-fat meat and oatmeal bread instead of the usual white bun. Unfortunately, the giant food chain turned him down. “They were interested, but they said the public wasnt quite ready for it yet,” he said. 63. According to the passage, “the baccalaureat” is probably . A. a book on ideal weight B. part of final year examsC. a healthy diet for students D. an important system of BMI64. We can infer that by sending his books to the 16 candidates, Pierre Dukan wanted . A. to show his support for the presidential election B. them to advertise for his diet book C. the future leaders of France to take child obesity seriouslyD. to emphasize how serious the health problem is65. Which of the follow
