考题 Passage OneMark went to the neighborhood meeting after work. The area's city councilwoman (女议员) was leading a discussion about how the quality of life was decreasing. The neighborhood faced many problems. People were supposed to suggest solutions to the councilwoman. It was too much for Mark. "The problems are too big," he thought. He turned to the man next to him and said, "I think this is a waste of my time. Nothing I could do would make a difference here."On his way back, Mark saw a woman carrying a grocery hag and baby. She was trying to unlock her car, but she didn't have a free hand. As Mark got closer, her other child, a little boy, suddenly darted into the street. The woman tried to reach for him, but as she moved, her bag shifted and groceries started to fall out. Mark ran to take the boy's arm and led him back to his mother. Then he picked up the groceries while the woman smiled in relief. "Thanks!" she said. "You've got great timing (适时) !""Just being neighborly (友好的) ," Mark said. As he rode home, he glanced at the walls of the bus passed by. On one of them was "Small acts of kindness add up." Mark smiled and thought, "Maybe that's a good place to start."31. In the first paragraph, Mark thought that______.A. nobody was so able as to solve these problemsB. many people were too selfish to think about othersC. he was not in the position to solve such problemsD. he already had more than enough work to do

考题 Passage OneOne of the well-known of American writers is Samuel Clemens, whose pen name is Mark Twain. Bom in 1835, Twain grew up in the Mississippi River town of Hannibal, Missouri.

He traveled a great deal, writing and speaking, and became very popular both in the United States and in Europe.Twain's style. of writing was simple and direct. Among the things he wrote about were superstitious (迷信的) people and people who were easily fooled. He used his unusual gift for humor to write about many things of importance.36.

考题 共用题干 Lifetime Employment in Japanese CompaniesIn most large Japanese companies,there is a policy of lifetime employment.What this means is that when people leave school or university to join an enterprise,they can expect to remain with that organization until they retire.In effect,the employee gets job security for life,and can only be fired for serious mistakes in work.Even in times of business recession,he or she is free from the fear of being laid off.One result of this practice is that the Japanese worker identifies closely with his company and feels strong loyalty to it.By working hard for the company,he believes he is safeguarding his own future.It is not surprising that devotion to one's company is considered a great virtue in Japan.A man is often prepared to put his firm's interests before those of his immediate family.The job security guaranteed by this system influences the way employees approach their work.They tend to think in terms of what they can achieve throughout their career.This is because they are not judged on how they are performing during a short period of time.They can afford to take a longer perspective than their western counterparts.This marriage between the employee and the company-the consequence of lifetime employment-may explain why Japanese workers seem positively to love the products their company is producing and why they are willing to stay on after work,for little overtime pay,to participate in earnest discussions about the quality control of their products.The Japanese worker is fond of his company's product because of the close link between him and his company.A:Right B:Wrong C:Not mentioned

考题 问答题Practice 2  President Bill Clinton's My Wife shows US the progress of a remarkable American, who, through his own enormous energies and efforts, made the unlikely journey from Hope, Arkansas, to the White House—a journey fueled by an impassioned interest in the political process which manifested itself at every stage of his life:in college, working as an intern for Senator William Fulbright; at Oxford, becoming part of the Vietnam War protest movement;at Yale Law School, campaigning on the grassroots level for Democratic candidates;back in Arkansas, running for Congress, attorney general, and governor.  We see his career shaped by his resolute determination to improve the life of his fellow citizens, all unfaltering commitment to civil rights, and an exceptional Understanding of the practicalities of political life.  We come to understand the emotional pressures of his youth—born after his Father's death;caught in the dysfunctional relationship between his feisty, nurturing mother and his abusive stepfather, whom he never ceased to love and whose name he took;drawn to the brilliant, compelling Hillary Rodham, whom he was determined to marry;passionately devoted, from her infancy, to their daughter, Chelsea, and to the entire。Experience of fatherhood; slowly and painfully beginning to comprehend how his early denial of pain led him at times into damaging patterns of behavior.

考题 问答题Practice 2  Henry Ford did not invent the automobile, but he was the first man to mass-produce it, and this made it available to the ordinary man. Many automobiles were being built by the hand at the turn of the century and were much too expensive for all but the wealthy. In 1903 Henry Ford's first mass-produced Model T cars cost $850. By the early 1920s he was able to reduce the price, to $350. Between 1903 and 1927 Ford manufactured 15 million Model T Fords and earned a profit of $700 million. In 1927 he produced his sedan Model A, which was much more comfortable than the open, windswept Model T.  Henry Ford was himself a born mechanic and could build a car with his own hands. So he respected his workers and treated them well. In 1914, when the basic wage for an industrial worker in Detroit was $11 a week, Ford announced that he would pay his Workers $5 a day. Ford believed in the dignity of work, and did not wish his men to become underpaid robots. He also built them a special town on the outskirts of the city.
