As a student, I was most 16 to answer questions in class, and I found that the students around were just like me. At the beginning of each class, when the professor asked a question, I always lowered my head, for fear that the professor saw me.
In a foreign language class, an expert (专家) from the Commercial Bank gave a speech. The speaker always wanted 17 to be in communication with him, so he asked how many students in the classroom learned Economics (经济), but no one 18 . The expert said with a smile, “Let me tell you a story first.”
“When I came to the United States to study, there are often speeches in the university. Each time, they invite an expert from Wall Street to make a speech.”
g of every speech, I found an 19 phenomenon (现象). The students around me always took a cardboard, wrote their 20 with the most eye-catching color, and then placed it on the seat. When the speaker needed the reply, he could see and call a listener’s name directly.”
“I couldn’t 21 why they did that, so I asked the student in front of me. He told me with a smile, ‘the speakers are all very successful people, who mean chances. When your answer is to his surprise, it is very possible that he will give you more 22 . This is a very simple reason.’ ”
“The fact was also like that. I really saw a few students around me went to 23 in the first- class company because of their excellent performance (表现). This had a great influence on me.

（本大题共26分，每小题2分）
A
In the 1920s, the airlines were just beginning. It was unusual for people to travel by air because it was expensive and dangerous. In those days, there were no flight attendants (服务生) to look after the passengers. Young men, or “stewards” helped the passengers onto the airplane and carried the passengers’ bags but they did not provide food and drinks. But then in 1930, a woman called Ellen Church invented the “stewardess”.
Ellen Church was born in 1904 on a farm in Iowa. She was a different child. She didn’t want to work on a farm or marry a farmer. She wanted a more adventurous (冒险的) life. Ellen studied to be a nurse at the University of Minnesota and then got a job in a hospital. For the next few years she stayed at the hospital and at the same time took flying lessons and got her pilot’s license.
Ellen was 25 years old when she first got in touch with BAT (Boeing Air Transport). She loved flying but she understood that airlines were a man’s world. Though women like Emelia Earheart were becoming famous, she realized it was impossible for a woman to have a career as a pilot. But she had another idea. Most people were afraid of flying because flying was still not a very safe way to travel. There were often delays (延误), many crashes and the bad weather made many passengers sick. Ellen thought nurses could take care of passengers during flights and BAT agreed.
The young woman from Iowa and seven other nurses became the first air stewardesses.
At first pilots were unhappy because they did not want stewardesses on airplanes, but passengers loved the stewardesses. In 1940 there were around 1000 of them working for different airlines. The early “stewardesses” had to be under twenty-five-year-old, single and slim. When a woman joined an airline, she had to promise not to get married or have children. It was a hard job and not well paid. They worked long hours and was paid $1 an hour.
In the 1970s, stewardesses were unhappy in their job and airlines had to make some changes. Since the 1970s, “stewardesses” have been called flight attendants. They are well paid and work fewer hours than in the past.
25. From the first paragraph, we know that ______________.
A. the word “stewardesses” was started from Ellen Church
B. Ellen Church was the first woman who flew a plane
C. food and drinks were offered on the plane then
D. traveling by air was very popular because of the flight attendants
26. Boeing Air Transport offered Ellen the job because of _______________.
A. her flying experience B. her university education
C. her nursing experience D. her life attitudes (态度)
27. The passage mainly talks about _______________.
A. the background of early flying pilots
B. the experience of flying passengers
C. the history of early flight attendants
D. the development of airplanes
B
It is two in the morning. The wind is getting stronger and there is a chance that it will rain. Though the weather is bad, Al Gehrke sits 110 floors above the ground, 442 meters above the earth. You may be wondering what he is doing so far off the ground. If you asked him, he would say, “I am just doing my job!”
Al Gehrke has a very special job that not many people would want to have. He manages one of the tallest buildings in the world — the Wills Tower in Chicago. His team washes and changes the windows. The Wills Tower has 16, 000 windows and each window weighs over 90 kilos. Gehrke and his team work from seven in the evening until four in the morning. They clean 18 windows each night. Each window takes almost 30 minutes. Al Gehrke is not afraid of high places and he is a good man for the job.
Mary Ann also has an unusual job. Instead of hanging high above the earth washing windows, she works under the water. She trains dolphins for shows and also helps people to swim with the dolphins. She loves the dolphins. “We never tell a dolphin what to do. We ask them respectfully. They decide to do that for us because of the relationship we have,” she said.
Besides washing windows high above the earth or swimming with big fish under the water, there are other unusual jobs that you have probably never thought of people having. Here is another strange example: karaoke singers! A karaoke singer is someone who sings the songs of famous singers. The singer is able to follow the words of the songs because they appear on a computer in front of them. In Cyprus, karaoke singers are very popular. They sing to the people on holiday. As the visitors travel around the island they can listen to the music of the karaoke singers.
28. By saying “I am just doing my job” in Paragraph 1, Al Gehrke is most likely to tell us .
A. his job is difficult to do B. he is brave and strong
C. he can make much money D. his job is nothing special
29. According to the third paragraph, Mary Ann .
A. considers herself unusual B. teaches people how to swim
C. has a great love for dolphins D. works long hours every day
30. The writer is trying to introduce some unusual jobs by .
A. holding some activities B. offering some examples
C. comparing several ones D. telling some funny stories
C
Living abroad to study can certainly be an interesting experience but is that alone a good enough reason for spending years far away from home? To make the experience truly valuable, there has to be a purpose behind the decision to study abroad. This may be a wish to perfect language skills in a foreign language environment, or a clever move in your career development. You must also consider the costs, not just of living and studying abroad, but of applying (申请). Most universities now require international students to pay for application.
If you are sure that you want to apply to study abroad after considering these points, your next step is to choose the right programme of studies. Research your choices and choose carefully. You must do your homework well. Most universities have information online but you can also email and ask them to send you more details. You can find a lot of information on school ranking from education websites. But read carefully. Different universities emphasize different strengths (强调不同的强项). Don’t just think about the university’s reputation (名声); look for the most suitable for your purposes.
Next, you must deal with a large pile of paperwork. This includes filling in application form, preparing your school records, and getting recommendation letters. Reading the instructions and requirements of the universities carefully is of great importance. Sadly, many fine applicants (申请者) get kicked out in the first round, simply because they don’t follow the application procedure (程序) properly.
Money is another important consideration. Some scholarships are provided by governments, others by schools and colleges. This information, again, can be found on the Internet. If you find a scholarship that is suitable for you, follow the application procedure carefully; the earlier you apply, the better your chance of getting it.
31. According to the article, studying abroad is truly valuable because ______.
B. all your friends are doing so
C. it is a good chance to develop your career it is fun to travel around the world
32. A school ranking list tells you ______.
B. the names of all the professors
D. where the school is located
33. What are the three things to do when you are applying to study in a university abroad?
Study hard, read the instructions and requirements, and buy an airplane ticket.
recommendation letters, prepare school records, and fill in the application form.
recommendation letter, do paperwork, and study hard.
D
The rising costs of health care have become a problem for many countries in the world. To deal with this problem, it is recommended that a big part of the government's health budget (预算) be used for health education and disease prevention instead of treatment. In fact, many kinds of diseases are preventable in many ways and preventing a disease is usually much cheaper than treating it. For example, people could avoid catching a cold if they dressed warmly when the weather starts getting cold. But many people get sick because they fail to do so, and have to spend money seeing a doctor.
Daily habits like eating more healthy food would have kept millions of families from becoming bankrupt if the patients had taken action for early prevention. For example, keeping a balanced diet seems to be quite important.
One very effective (有效的) and costless way of prevention is regular (规律的) exercise, which is necessary for a healthy mind and body. Regular exercise, such as running, walking, and playing sports is a good way to make people feel better or reduce stress.
Health education plays a key role in improving people's health. By giving people more information about health, countries could help people understand the importance of disease prevention and ways to achieve it. For example, knowing one's family medical history is an effective way to help keep healthy. Information about health problems among close relatives will make them aware of what they should do to prevent certain diseases through lifestyle changes, which will work before it is too late.
However, paying more attention to disease prevention does not mean medical treatment is unimportant. After all, prevention and treatment are just two different ways toward the same effect. In conclusion, we could save money on health care and treat patients more successfully if our country spends more money on health prevention and education.
34. What’s the best title of the passage?
A. Prevention or Education B. Prevention or Treatment
C. Health or Illness D. Exercise or Illness
35. Which of the following can replace (替代) the underlined word bankrupt?
A. unable to be cured B. unable to pay one’s debts (债务)
C. stronger than ever before D. more successful than ever before
36. We learn from the passage that ________.
A. dressing warmly can prevent diseases
B. a balanced diet is cheaper than regular exercise
C. the more health education, the better
D. the government’s health budget should be increased
37. Which of the following shows the structure (结构) of the passage?
CP (Central Point) P (Point)
Sp (Sub-point次要点) C (Conclusion)

A hobby is an activity we can do in our free time, so that we can keep ourselves busy with something that makes us happy. Different people have different kinds of hobbies, according to their personal likes and dislikes. Hobbies are activities we choose to do, but not activities we have to do. There is a lot of difference between wanting to do something and having to do it. We only want to do those things we like to do, and things that give us pleasure and peace of mind.
Hobbies play a very important role in our lives. For example, they are a way of connecting us with our inner self. The time devoted to taking up a hobby is our own time. This is the time when we can connect and communicate with ourselves. During this personal time, we can do whatever we like. Doing things according to our own wishes gives us a sense of inner satisfaction, and also helps develop self-confidence.
Hobbies also help discover talents. There is a possibility that we are interested in a certain activity, but have never had a chance to try it. If we develop our interest as our hobbies, it’s quite clear that we’ll do it with great interest. So, even if we have never tried a certain thing before, we can still learn to do it. The hobbyists’ hidden talents can be discovered, and this can make them feel more confident.
It’s human nature to try to know more about the things we like. The moment we pursue (追求) some activities as our favorite hobbies, we want to gain more knowledge about the same hobby. Whether it’s gardening, cooking, painting or collecting stamps, we always try to get a deeper understanding of what we’re doing, so that we can do it more correctly. What’s more, we also happen to meet people with similar tastes and sometimes, owning rich knowledge about their hobbies. Besides gaining knowledge, hobbies also provide us with a chance to meet people who share similar likes and dislikes with us.
Whatever our hobbies are, they can be developed at any age, as a child or as an adult. However, if we begin at a young age, we can get more time to experience the joys. The hobby may grow with us, and some day, may also take us to great heights.
Why do we take up hobbies? | ||
| Paragraph outline | Supporting details | |
| Meanings | Hobbies are activities we do in our spare time and can make us happy . Hobbies are activities we do according to the 1 we make. | |
| Advantages | Helping connect with the inner self | The time 2 on the hobby is our personal time when we can be free to do anything we like. We’ll feel 3 and become more confident. |
| Helping discover talents | We can learn a lot by trying some activities with great interest. We’ll be able to find our hidden talents. | |
| Helping gain knowledge | When pursuing a hobby, we should try our best to 4 it well, and then we gain a lot of knowledge. We can also meet some learned people and learn a lot from them. | |
| Conclusion | 5 all hobbies can be developed at any age, yet it’s better to develop one when we are young. | |
