With a few minutes to spare between meetings, you go to get a quick cup of coffee.“Hey, David, how are you?” one of the senior part ners at the firm asks you.“Good, thank you, Dr. Greer,” you reply. You’ve really been wanting to make a connection with the senior leadership at the firm, and this seems like a great opportunity. But as you start to think of something to say, your American colleague breaks in to steal your spotlight.“So Arnold”, your colleague says to your boss, in such a casual manner that it makes your German soul cringe(畏缩), “So what’s your Super bowl prediction? I mean, you’re a Niners fan, right?”The conversation moves on, and you walk silently back to your desk with your coffee. You knowhow important small talk is in the U.S., and you feel jealous of people who can do it well.There’s nothing small about the role that small talk plays in American pro fessional culture. People from other countries are often surprised at how important small talk is in the U.S. and how naturally and comfortably people seem to do it ------ with peers, men, women, and even with superiors. You can be the most technically skilled worker in the world, but your ability to progress in your job in the United States is highly dependent on your ability to build and maintain positive relationships with people at work. And guess what skill is critical for building and maintaining these relationships? Small talk.What can you do if you are from another culture and want to learn to use small talk in theU.S. to build relationships and establish trust? Work hard to hone(磨练) your own version of American-style small talk. Watch how others do it. You don’t have to mimic what they do; in fact, that would likely backfire because people would see you as inauthentic. But if you can develop your own personal version, that can go a long way toward making you feel comfortable and competence．28. The author introduces the topic of the passage by______.A. describing an interesting sceneB. offering a plotC. making comparisonsD. telling a small jokes29．What do we know about German people?A．They usually make small talk in work breaks．B．They hate making small talk．C．They don’t make so much small talk．D．They are good at making small talk too．30. What makes people from other countries surprised in American professional culture?A．American workers’ability to make progress．B．American workers’attitude towards superiors．C．The special meaning of small talk．D．The role small talk plays in work settings．31. What does “backfire” underlined in the last paragraph mean?A．have a warm atmosphere B．have the opposite effectC．have a good result D．have a hard timeDScience has a lot of uses. It can uncover laws of nature, cure diseases, make bombs, and help bridges to stand up. Indeed science is so good at what it does that there’s always a temptation(诱惑) to drag it into problems where it may not be helpful. David Brooks, author of The Social Animal: The Hidden Sources of Love, Character, and Achievement, appears to be the latest in a long line of writers who have failed to resist the temptation.Brooks gained fame for several books. His latest book The Social Animal, however, is more ambitious and serious than his earlier books. It is an attempt to deal with a set of weighty topics.The book focuses on big questions: What has science revealed about human nature? What are the sources of character? And why are some people happy and successful while others aren’t?To answer these questions, Brooks surveys a wide range of disciplines（学科）.Considering this, you might expect the book to be a dry recitation of facts. But Brooks has structured his book in an unorthodox(非常规的), and perhaps unfortunate, way. Instead of introducing scientific theories, he tells a story, within which he tries to make his points, perhaps in order to keep the reader’s att ention. So as Harold and Erica, the hero and heroine in his story, live through childhood, we hear about the science of child development and as they begin to date we hear about the theory of sexual attraction. Brooks carries this through to the death of one of his characters.On the whole, Brooks’s story is acceptable if uninspired. As one would expect, his writing is mostly clear and, to be fair, some chapters stand out above the rest. I enjoyed, for instance, the chapter in which Harold discovers how to think on his own. While Harold and Erica are certainly not strong or memorable characters, the more serious problems with The Social Animal lie elsewhere. These problems partly involve Brooks’s attempt to translate his tale into science.32. The author mentions the functions of science at the beginning of the passage to__________.A. illustrate where science can be appliedB. demonstrate the value of Brooks’s new bookC. remind the reader of the importance of scienceD. explain why many writers use science in their works33. According to the author, which of the following could be a strength of the book?A. Its strong basis.B. Its convincing points.C. Its clear writing.D. Its memorable characters.34. What is the author’s ge neral attitude towards the book?A. Contradictory.B. Supportive.C . Cautious. D. Critical.35. What is the author likely to write about after the last paragraph?A. Problems with the book.B. Brooks’s life experience.C. Death of the characters.D. Brooks’s translation skills.EPapa, as a son of a dirt-poor farmer, left school early and went to work in a factory, for education was for the rich then. So, the world became his school. With great interest, he read everything he could lay his hands on, listened to the town elders and learned about the world beyond his tiny hometown.“There’s so much to learn,”he’d say. “Though we’re born stupid, only the stupid remain that way.”He was determined that none of his children would be denied (拒绝) an education.Thus, Papa insisted that we learn at least one new thing each day. Though, as children, we thought this was crazy, it would never have occurred to us to deny Papa a request. And dinner time seemed perfect for sharing what we had learned. We would talk about the news of the day; no matter how insignificant, it was never taken lightly. Papa would listen carefully and was ready with some comment, always to the point.Then came the moment—the time to share the day’s new lea rning.Papa, at the head of the table, would push back his chair and pour a glass of red wine, ready to listen.“Felice,” he’d say, “tell me what you learned today.”“I learned that the population of Nepal is ....”Silence.Papa was thinking about what was said, as if the salvation of the world would depend upon it. “The population of Nepal. Hmm. Well….” he’d say. “Get the map; let’s see where Nepal is.” And the whole family went on a search for Nepal.This same experience was repeated until each family member had a turn. Dinner ended only after we had a clear understanding of at least half a dozen such facts.As children, we thought very little about these educational wonders. Our family, however, was growing together, sharing ex periences and participating in one another’s education. And by looking at us, listening to us, respecting our input, affirming our value, giving us a sense of dignity, Papa was unquestionably our most influential teacher.Later during my training as a future teacher, I studied with some of the most famous educators. They were imparting what Papa had known all along—the value of continual learning. His technique has served me well all my life. Not a single day has been wasted, though I can nevertell when knowing the population of Nepal might prove useful.36. What do we know from the first paragraph?A. The author’s father was born in a worker’s family.B. Those born stupid could not change their life.C. The town elders wanted to learn about the world.D. The poor could hardly afford school education.37. The underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refers to “________”.A. one new thingB. a requestC. the newsD. some comment38. It can be learned from the passage that the author________.A. enjoyed talking about newsB. knew very well about NepalC. felt regret about those wasted daysD. appreciated his father’s educational technique39. What is the greatest value of “dinner time” to the author?A. Continual learning.B. Showing talents.C. Family get-together.D. Winning Papa’s approval.40. The author’s father can be best described as ________.A. an educator expert at training future teachersB. a parent insistent on his ch ildren’s educationC. a participant willing to share his knowledgeD. a teacher strict about everything his students did第三部分(共两节，满分40分)第一节完形填空（共20小题; 每小题1.5分, 满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。
