A
Jerry was a unique manager because he had several waiters who had followed him around from restaurant to restaurant．The reason the waiters followed Jerry was because of his attitude．He was a natural motivator．It an employee was having a bad day．Jerry was there telling the employee how to look on the positive side of the situation．
Seeing this style really made me curious, so one day I went up to Jerry and asked him, "I don't get it! You can't be a positive person all of the time．How do you do it?" Jerry replied, "Each morning I wake up and say to myself, "Jerry, you have two choices today．You can choose to be in a good mood or you can choose to be in a bad mood．' I choose to be in a good mood．Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or I can choose to learn from it．I choose to learn from it．Every time someone comes to me complaining．I can choose to accept their complaining or I can point out the positive side of life．I choose the positive side of life．The bottom line It's your choice how you live life．" I reflected on what Jerry said． Later．I left the restaurant industry to start my own business．We lost touch, but I often thought about him when I made a choice about life．
Several years later．I heard that Jerry did something you are never supposed to do in a restaurant business he left the back door open one morning and was held up at gun point by three armed robbers．While trying to open the safe, he forgot the password, nervous．The robbers panicked and shot him．Luckily, Jerry was found relatively quickly and rushed to the local hospital．After 18 hours of surgery and weeks of intensive care．Jerry was released from the hospital with fragments（碎片） of the bullets still in his body．
I saw Jerry about six months after the accident．When I asked him how he was．he replied．"The first thing that went through my mind was that I should have locked the back door," Jerry replied．"Then, as I lay on the floor．I remembered that I had two choices I could choose to live．or I could choose to die．I chose to live．" " Weren ' t you scared? Did you lose consciousness?" I asked．Jerry continued, "The doctors and nurses were great．They kept telling me I was going to be fine．But when they wheeled me into the emergency room and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really scared．I knew I needed to take action．"
"What did you do?" I asked．"Well, there was a big．strong nurse shouting questions at me．" said Jerry．"She asked if I was allergic （过敏的） to anything．"Yes．' I replied．The doctors and nurses stopped working as they waited for my reply．I took a deep breath and yelled, "Bullets!' Over their laughter, I told them．"I am choosing to live．Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead．'"
Jerry lived thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also because of his amazing attitude．I learned from him that every day we have the choice to live fully．

An old problem is getting new attention in the United States—bullying．Recent cases included the tragic case of a fifteen-year-old girl whose family moved from Ireland．She hanged herself in Massachusetts in January following months of bullying．Her parents criticized her school for failing to protect her．Officials have brought criminal charges against several teenagers．
Judy Kaczynski is president of an anti-bullying group called Bully Police USA．Her daughter Tina was the victim of severe bullying starting in middle school in the state of Minnesota．She said, "Our daughter was a very outgoing child．She was a bubbly personality, very involved in all kinds of things, had lots of friends．And over a period of time her grades fell completely．She started having health issues．She couldn't sleep．She wasn't eating．She had terrible stomach pains．She started clenching（紧握，紧咬） her jaw and grinding her teeth at night．She didn't want to go to school．"
Bullying is defined as negative behavior repeated over time against the same person．It can involve physical violence．Or it can be verbal—for example, insults or threats．Spreading lies about someone or excluding a person from a group is known as social or relational bullying．
And now there is cyberbullying, which uses the Internet, e-mail or text messages．It has easy appeal for the bully because it does not involve face-to-face contact and it can be done at any time．
The first serious research studies into bullying were done in Norway in the late 1970s．The latest government study in the United States was released last year．It found that about one-third of students aged twelve to eighteen were bullied at school．
Susan Sweater is a psychologist at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and co-director of the Bullying Research Network．She says schools should treat bullying as a mental health problem to get bullies and victims the help they need．She says bullying is connected to depression, anxiety and anti-social behavior, and bullies are often victims themselves．

A．bullying is rare B．victims suffered a lot
C．schools are to blame D．personalities are related
62．Which of the following is NOT bullying?
A．To beat someone repeatedly．
B．To call someone names．
C．To isolate someone from friends．
D．To refuse to help someone in need．
63．Why is cyberbullying appealing to the bully?
A．Because it can involve more people．
B．Because it can create worse effects．
C．Because it is more convenient．
D．Because it can avoid cheating．
．According to Susan Sweater．_____．
A．bullies are anti-social
B．bullies should give victims help
C．students are not equally treated
D．bullies themselves also need help
65．Which of the following can be the best title of the text?

"The days when the management in Western companies presented gold watches to long-serving employees to thank them for loyal service is now just a memory．" says the Educational and Training Support Agency．
This new development in the shape and movement of the workforce throughout Western businesses is partly a result of the way that layers of middle management are being removed, leaving more workers responsible for their own development．
"Having workers take responsibility for their own development might be dramatic, but it is now the rule," says the Educational and Training Support Agency．
"Today, not only are workers more mobile, they have to run to keep up with changes．" says the Government-founded agency．"It is no longer enough for a worker to gain a set of skills．Workers need the ability to react and get used to changes．" This new system is also being pushed along by the way that industry is looking to its workers to renew their own skills．In the United States, some companies have contracts （合同） which repair their employees to show regularly how they have their skills up to date．
Contrary to this traditions of the past, employers in the West are now looking for autonomous learners as recruits, people who can develop their own continuing education beyond the school and university system．At the same time．businesses are developing the capacity for workers to take up autonomous learning on site in workplace, so that the skills and abilities of all workers in a business continue to improve and increase．"This．of course," says business theory．"will also improve the productivity （生产率） of the workers and therefore the profits of the company．"
66．The management in western companies no longer presents gold watches to their employees because _____．
A．they are not loyal to companies
B．other rewards replace gold watches
C．the way prove to be a failure
D．serving a company for life is rare now
67．The western workforce frequently changes their jobs partly because _____．
A．hopping from job to job has become a new trend
B．employees are expecting to have more experiences in their life
C．workers have to take more responsibility for themselves
D．it is easy to complete themselves by doing so
68．The passage seems to suggest that the present situation in society requires that workers should
A．show more loyalty to their companies
B．try to develop their skills to fit in with changes
C．go to college to have their skills up to date
D．be quick in changing their careers if there is the possibility
69．The phrase "autonomous learner" in the last paragraph means _____．
A．people who have received higher education
B．people who study hard themselves
C．people who learn things very quickly
D．people who continue their study beyond regular education
70．Companies require their employee's development mainly because _____．
A．it will finally help to bring more profits to the company
B．it can attract more workers who pay special attention to self-development
C．it is good for the employees to develop their skills
D．it will make workers more responsible and loyal to the company
Part Iv Writing （45 marks）
Section A （10 marks）
Directions Read．the following passage．Fill．in the numbered, blanks by using the information from the passage．
Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer．
Learning to improve your focus throughout the day can be a little difficult, only because we are talking about 18 to 24 hours, depending on the number of hours you sleep．However, if we break down your day into manageable time frames, it would make it much easier to learn to improve your focus．
Focus, or concentration, is a skill that can be taught, so there are some exercises you can do to improve your focus．
Start with easy exercises like staring at a picture on the wall for a few minutes without moving or talking to anyone．Once you learn how to block out your surroundings, your focus will improve．
Other mind exercises you can do are internalizing．This is when you picture yourself in a desired situation, and then you work around your picture．Actors do this a lot to block out laughter, noise, or other distractions．An example of this would be to imagine you in a potentially stressful situation, like a singer in a concert．Try to play out the scene in your mind what you would do if different scenarios were to happen．This can actually be a lot of fun．and you learn how to improve your focus by concentrating on one thing only．
If this sounds a little strange to you, you could try another strategy．Why not make lists? Make a list for the things you need to accomplish for the morning, another for the afternoon．and finally, another list for the evening．Study your lists carefully and see where you can move things around．
For instance, if you have a dinner to arrange that evening, don't bunch up everything in the afternoon, right before the guests arrive．Divide your chores and errands between morning and afternoon, and give yourself an hour or two to relax before the guests arrive．Planning helps you focus．It will also not stress you out．
Another way to improve your focus is to take breaks．If children have rest and lunch as their breaks, adults should also allow themselves the privilege of stopping for a drink or a 30 minute sitcom on TV．Of course, if you are working in an office, you are allowed coffee breaks．Use this time wisely．Don't spend it with your co-workers beside the coffee machine talking about problems in the office．Doing this would actually stress you and get you to lose focus on the things that need to be done．Your breaks should be as quiet as possible．Read a book．take a walk．or visit a daycare．Go and do anything that will give your brain a rest．
The reason why we lose focus so easily is because we have too much on our minds．Of course, it could also be because you are bored with nothing to do all day．A good balance between a too relaxed brain and an overly active brain is a desirable situation to be in．Find your capacity to work, and try not to veer away too far from it on a daily basis．Improving your focus also means knowing what you can do and being confident about doing it well．
Focus is important but difficult to improve
1． 71 to improve your focus
I ．Staring at picture．
◆Staring at a wall picture 72 to learn to block out surroundings
Ⅱ．73 ．
◆ Concentrating on imagining a potentially stressful work place to block out 74
Ⅲ． 75 ．
◆ Dividing a day into 76 for chores and errands to be done．as well as arranging time for relaxation
IV．Taking breaks．
◆ Wisely using time to have a drink, watch TV quietly instead of 77 ; just resting your brain
2． 78 for easily losing focus
◆ Having too much on minds
◆ 79 all day
Conclusion Keeping 80 between extremely relaxed brain and too active brain．
Section B （10 marks）
Directions Read．the following passage．Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and the required words limit．Write your answers on your answer sheet．
When I was 10 years old, my friend Sydney was diagnosed with a brain tumor．Sydney fought against it, but the tumor did not respond to treatment, and could not be surgically removed．The mass wrapped around her brain stem, the area of the brain that controls the vital functions of life such as breathing and blood pressure．Sydney died at the age of 11．
After her death, I felt immense sadness and frustration about pediatric cancer．I decided to turn these negative emotions into positive actions．When I was 11 years old．I founded the Pink Polka Dots Guild（PPD） with two friends．The guild is named after Sydney s favorite color and pattern, which represents both the memory of my friend and the guild's positive approach．My goal has been to raise enough money to find a cure for brain cancer, which is the second most common cancer in children．
Over the years, PPD has held fundraisers from lemonade stands to art expositions to golf tournaments．I have played a leading role in planning and organizing each PPD event．The very first Pink Polka Dots event, a garage sale．raised $ 9．000, and our most recent fundraiser, the fifth annual golf tournament, brought in over $ 73．000．The guild progressed faster than I ever anticipated．In five years, we have become 40 members strong, and raised almost half of a million dollars．
I've been shocked by the public recognition that the guild has earned．PPD received an award from a U．S．Senator, spoke at a TED Conference, was featured in Teen Vogue, and appeared on The Note Berkus Show．Each of these honors has raised awareness and money for our cause．
The initiative that I have taken has truly impacted the world of cancer research．PPD has provided start-up funding for scientific discoveries, such as "Tumor Paint", which illuminates cancerous cells so that surgeons can remove them with unprecedented accuracy．The discovery appeared in Time Magazine．, and will be reviewed by the Food & Drug Administration starting in early 2012．1 am extremely proud to have helped fund the research of this life-saving technology．
Pink Polka Dots has inspired me to be an activist．My experience has taught me that with passion and dedication, it is possible to make a difference to the world．The determination that Pink Polka Dots sparked in me has carried over to all aspects of my life, making me a driven academic, a competitive debater and a dedicated volunteer．
81．Why did the author feel sad and frustrated? （No more than 8 words）
82．What was the author s purpose of founding PPD? （No more than 15 words）
83．What achievement has PPD made in helping cancer research? （No more than 13 words）
