friends, some strangers, and many strangers who became friends!we were all given duties to perform, such as cleaning and cooking. i was in the team serving meals.on the first day i tried hard to please everyone, but it was hard to know how. some people liked it when you were fast and just gave them their food, some people preferred it slow and steady so that they could choose exactly how much they wanted, some didnt know what i was serving and didnt speak english. if they werent served in the way they wanted some grew annoyed. as you can imagine, after an hour of this it started to get old.so the next day, we tried a different tactic(策略)i learnt how to say “would you like” in several languages and tried to seeeveryones name badges (which also indicated where they were from) to make sure that they understood what i was saying to them.i was serving beans so when people came up to me i beamed at them and said “would you like beans ?” if they said no i pretended to be annoyed and some of them smiled and reconsidered. if they said they did i smiled more and said, “yayy, you want some beans!” and i said something personal to them, like “ good choice, theyre delicious!” or i politely praised them for something they were wearing. my friends and i also started singing when we werent serving to keep our spirits up.i was so enthusiastic that we actually ran out of beans before everyone got served! to be honest, i wasnt sure if i was making them smile, or annoying them!after a few days of this though, whenever i saw people i had served they smiled and thanked me, saying how it had brightened up their day, we were more than happy. we even got an award for the best servers at the end！we did other things that werent our duty too, like cleaning up, or washing dishes for people when everyone was supposed to do their own. at first people were confused when we did this, then they said “are you sure?” , then they realized they were getting a favor without giving anything in return and they would be thankful.sometimes a smile or a positive attitude makes all the difference!21. from paragraph 3, we can learn that the authors first day on the job was _a. rewarding b. tiring c. exciting d. pleasing22. what did the author depend on to win the people he served ? a. tasty and delicious food b. sweet and honey words c. low prices and free service d. warm

servers d. excellent managementbjohn chambers is president and chief executive officer (ceo) of cisco systems, the worldwide leader in internet networking. he has made his company a living laboratory for all future-minded businesses.chambers was born in 1949 in charleston, west virginia, the us. his father was an obstetrician and gynecologist（婦產(chǎn)科醫(yī)生），while his mother was a psychologist. during his childhood, chamber suffered from dyslexia, a learning disability, his schoolmates laughed at him about his disability. though this hurt him, it made him more determined to overcome (戰(zhàn)勝) his problem. concerned about his educational need, his parents sent him to lorena anderson, an expert in learning disabilities. under her treatment, which lasted for two years, he was able to overcome most of his problems and did reasonably well at school.this experience taught him to understand people-especially those in difficulty. this experience also improved his confidence as he had overcome a major weakness.under chambers, cisco has become a main and important player in the global networking industry. chambers leadership skills and management abilities were particularly appreciated when he pulled cisco out of its worst ever financial position-a net loss of $1 billion in 2000-2001 financial year.chambers considered cisco as either the market leader or runner-up, in every product market it entered. by the end of 1999,cisco was the market leader in 80% of its product markets while coming a close second in the remaining 20%.during the period 1995 to 2002,ciscos

great influence on him c. he pulled cisco out of its worst ever financial position d. he didnt receive more educationclondon guidebooksguidebook a informal and familiar in tone, this valuable book has much to offer. produced by the same people who put together londons principal listings magazine, this is right up to date with whats happening in the city-very much its home ground. it is concise enough to cater for those staying for just a couple of days, yet covers all areas of interest to visitors in an admirably condensed and approachable way. on balance, this is the single most handy book to have with you in london.guidebook bthis book is beautifully illustrated, with cutaway diagrams of buildings and birds-eye-view itineraries (路線) rather than plain maps. this is a model of the clear, professional design that is the recognizable trademark of this series. its coverage of the main sights is strong, and visually its a real treata delight to own as a practical guide. its a bit pricey but well worth a look when you visit the bookshop.guidebook cprobably the best-suited for a longish stay in the city. this guide surpasses its competitors in its sheer depth of knowledge and in the detail it provides. its particularly handy for the thorough stroller with plenty of time on his or her hands, covering virtually every building or monument of any interestand with welldrawn maps of each area. its coverage of all types of restaurants, which encourages you to go out and try them, can also be appreciated from the comfort of your armchair.guidebook d it is astonishingand perhaps the greatest tribute one can pay to london as a city-that its possible to have a highquality holiday there and scarcely spend anything on admission charges. in this guide, the obvious bargains (national gallery, british museum, etc.) are almost lost among an impressive range of places which cost nothing to visit. it should pay more attention to the numerous wonderful churches in the city of london but otherwise this is a must for the seriously budgetconscious or the londoner who is looking for something different (like me). the book itself isnt quite free, but at $ 4.95 you have to admit its not far off it.guidebook ethis is the latest in the longeststanding series of budget guides and, unlike its competitors, it is still definitely aimed at young backpackers. its description of the sights is less detailed than most and the accuracy of some of the information is surprisingly poor for such a regularly updated publication. however, it manages to cram in everything of significance, and is strongly weighted towards practicalities and entertainment.29. if you plan to spend three days in london, which book is best suitable for you ? a. guidebook b b. guidebook c c. guidebook a d. guidebook e30. guidebook d focuses on _. a. providing beautiful pictures of london b. showing free itineraries c. introducing tourist attractions that visitors neednt pay to enter d. bargaining with national gallery and british museum.31. compared with other guidebooks, guidebook cs advantage is that _.a. it aims at younger tourists b. it provides more informationc. it is updated regularly d. it is free to getd if youve ever tried to grow your own flowers or vegetables, you know thatgardening is an art as much as it is a science. the science part just takes a step forward,at least for tomatoes. the way a tomato plant grows depends on how a farmer covers and fertilizes it, sayresearchers from the u. s. department of agriculture. theyve discovered someunexpected details about the biochemistry that goes into producing the juicy red fruit. to cut down on weeds and make plants grow more quickly, farmers and gardenersoften put back plastic around their tomato plants. instead of plastic, however, somegrowers have long preferred to use a type of plant called vetch (野豌豆) as a cover. over the winter, the farmers grow hairy vetch, which belongs to the bean family.when springtime comes, they cut down the vetch and plant tomatoes in the cuttings. thevetch keeps weeds out and nutrients in. some research has shown that tomatoes lastlonger and get fewer fungal (真菌的) diseases when grown in dried vetch. to understand why the system works so well, the researchers first compared twofields of tomatoes. one field got a mulch (覆蓋物) of vetch and a half amount offertilizer. the other field got a cover of plastic and a full amount of fertilizer. in years with enough rain, tomatoes in the plastic-covered field began to grow alittle bit sooner. but the vetch-covered field yielded (生產(chǎn)) a bigger, healthier crop. then, the researchers compared specific genes and proteins in the two crops. in thevetch-covered plants, they found higher activity in two genes that help protect the plantsfrom fungal attacks and two genes that control how the plants age. vetch-covered tomatoes end up with especially big root systems. so the researchersthink that these plants are better at taking nutrients from the soil. better nutrition couldaffect how certain genes work.32. whats the best title for this passage ? a. how to plant tomato plants b. growing healthier vetch-covered tomatoes c. two kinds of tomato plants d. growing tomatoes with a plastic cover33. the advantage that the plastic cover has over the vetch cover is that _ a. tomato plants grow stronger in it. b. the genes of tomato plants are not changed c. tomato plants grow faster in it d. weeds are kept out34. which of the following is the right order of using the vetch as mulch ? a. the vetch keeps weeds from growing b. the farmers plant vetch in winter. c. the vetch is cut down in spring. d. the farmers grow tomatoes in the cuttings.a. b, c, d, a b. c, b, d, a c. d, a, b, c d. a, c, b, d35. tomato plants benefit from dried vetch in the way _. a. that four certain genes are made more active to keep them healthier and more nutritious. b. that the vetch cover can only keep weeds out. c. that two certain genes are made more active to keep them younger. d. that the vetch cover helps protect its root systems.第二節(jié)：根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)，選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。（共5小題：每小題2分，滿分10分）andy warhol, a twentieth-century american painter, once said that “in the future everyone will be famous for 15 minutes.” it is an exaggeration(夸大) to say that everyone will be famous. 36 this is especially true of people working as writers, artists, musicians and performers in the entertainment business.interestingly, some people who were not famous during their lifetime become famous after their deaths. 37 very few people have fame that lasts.in popular music, for example, few singers enjoy on-going fame, and among writers, the majority of the best-selling authors and poets of the past are not read or even remembered today. 38 and writers who are currently best-sellers and household names are likely to be completely forgotten and unread in 10 or 20 years.for many writers, musicians and artists, their fameduring their lifetime and afterwardsis often dependent on fashion. during his lifetime and for several centuries after his death, for example, mozart was not a famous composer. 39 it should also be remembered that although most people have heard of mozart, only a tiny percentage of the population ever go to a concert of classical music, buy a classical music cd or listen to a classical music radio station. 40 these are often people whose achievements are small and who will be forgotten within minutes of the end of the interview. such people are perhaps “famous for being famous”.a. today, celebrities are keen on charity.b. nowadays, the media is full of celebrities.c. actually, everyone has his own way to fame.d. it was only in the twentieth century that he became fashionable.e and some people who were famous when they were alive are soon forgotten.f. even those who are, such as charles dickens, are not widely read except by students.g. however, there is little doubt that even for people who do achieve fame, fame will rarely last第三部分
