二、阅读理解
1、If you want to see a thing well, reach out （伸出手） and touch it!
That may seem a strange thing to say. But touching things can help you to see them better. Your eyes can tell you that a glass ball is round. But by holding it in your hands, you can feel how smooth （光滑） and cool the ball is. You can feel how heavy the glass is. When you feel all these about the ball, you really see it. With your skin, you can feel better. For example, your fingers can tell the difference between two coins in your pocket. You can feel a little drop of water on the back of your hand, too.
All children soon learn what Don’t touch! means. They hear it often. Yet most of us keep on touching things as we grow up. In shops, we touch things as we might buy: food, clothes. To see something well, we have to touch it. There are ways of learning to see well by feeling. One way is to close your eyes and try to feel everything that is touching your skin. Feel the shoes on your feet, the clothes on your body, the air on your skin. At first, it is not easy to feel these things. You are too used to （习惯于） them!
Most museums are just for looking. But today some museums have some things to touch. Their signs say, Do touch! There you can feel everything on show. If we want to see better, reach out and touch. Then you will really see!
By touching things, ______（）
A．you will have a strange feeling
B．you will learn how to reach out your hand
C．you can know them better
D．you can tell what colors they are
2、When people buy things in shops, they often ______（） A．buy them first

6、A major incentive （动力） for college attendance is the belief that it will prepare you for a career. Chances are that the career you want, whether in nursing, counseling, law, or management, requires a college education. Even if the return
of your education isn’t as gr eat as it used to be, you would probably rather be a relatively poorly paid lawyer than a secretary or a construction worker; you would probably rather be a manager than a managee. In the sense that a degree is increasingly required for even middle-level jobs, your investment in a college education will still pay off.
It can pay off in other ways too. It is a value judgement to say that a college education will make you a better person, but it is a value judgement that the vast majority of college graduates are willing to make survey after survey to demonstrate that people feel very positive about their college education, believing that it has made them better and more tolerant people.
Whether it makes you a better person or not, a college education is likely to have a lasting effect on your knowledge and values. If you finish college, you will sit through 30 to 45 different courses. Even the least dedicated student is bound to learn something from these courses. In addition, students learn informally. Whether you go to college in you hometown or across the country, college will introduce you to a greater diversity of people than you’re likely to have experienced before. This diversity will challenge your mind and broaden your horizons.
As a result of formal and informal learning, college graduates are more knowledgeable about the world around them, more tolerant and less prejudiced, more active in public and community affairs, and, more open to new ideas
It is apparent from the passage that people go to college mainly because they believe ______（）
A．a college education will provide them with a guarantee of success in life
B．the economy of their country can’t absorb an army of untrained youngsters
C．a college education will make them better qualified for a career
D．the investment in a college education can bring a higher economic return than before
7、We can learn from the second paragraph that ______（）
A．college can hardly help people become better citizens B．most college graduates refuse to make any comment on their college education
C．a college education may not be the best thing for everyone D．people consider their college education to be of great worth
8、The word dedicated（Para. 3） could best be replaced by
______（）
A．hardworking
B．competent
C．intelligent
D．conservative
9、According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true（）

B．A college education is likely to be a required credential （文凭） for the career a person wants

D．A college education tends to have long range effects on
a person’s knowledge and v alues

D．the intercommunication among college students
11、Before you argue with your boss, check with the boss’s
secretary to determine his mood. If he ate nails for breakfast, it is not a good idea to ask him for something. Even without the boss’s secretary, there are keys to timing：don’t app roach the boss when he is on deadline（最终期限）；don’t go in right before lunch, when he is apt to be distracted（走神）and rushed；don’t go in just before or after he has taken a vacation. If you’re mad, that will only make your boss mad. Calm down first. And don’t let a particular concern open the floodgates for all your accumulated frustration（怨气）. The boss will feel that you think negatively about the company and it is hopeless trying to change your mind. Then, maybe he will dismiss you. Terrible disputes can result when neither the employer nor the employee knows what the problem that the other wants to discuss is. Sometimes the fight will go away when the issues are made clear. The employee has to get his point across clearly in order to make the boss understand it.
Your boss has enough on his mind without your adding more. If you can’t put forward an immediate solution, at least suggest how to approach the problem. People who frequently present problems without solutions to their bosses may soon find they can’t get past the secretary.
To deal effectively with a boss, it’s important to consider
his goals and pressures. If you can put yourself in the position of being a partner to the boss, then he will be naturally more inclined to work with you to achieve your goal
If you want to ask the boss for anything, it is important to find out first ______（）
A．who the secretary is
B．how he is feeling
C．if it is the lunch time
D．your solution to the problem

A．Your boss is in high spirits
B．At 10：00 in the morning
C．You can express yourself clearly and have your solution advice
D．Your boss has little time to get his work done
14、Why should you calm down before you talk to your boss （）
A．Because your boss is mad
B．Because you may get excited and complain a lot
C．Because your boss may open the gate and let you go
D．Because both you and your boss are stubborn persons
15、Which can be the best title of the passage（）
A．How to Argue with Your Boss
B．Express Yourself with calmness
C．The Best Time to Argue with Your Boss
D．Stay with Your Boss
16、Persons who are overweight should watch their diet carefully in order to lose pounds. The best way to do this is to start a weight control program. At first it is wise to talk with your doctor. He can advise you of the number of calories （卡路里） you should have in your meals each day. He can tell you about exercising while on your diet. A good rule is to lose slowly. A loss of a pound or two is plenty.
Plan meals around foods you know. This means that it is wise to include foods that you are used to and that are part of your regular eating habits. When you have lost the weight you wish, simple items can be added to your diet so that you can maintain
the weight you want. While you are dieting, try to build a pattern of eating that you can follow later to maintain your desired weight.
When dieting, choose low-calorie foods. Avoid such items as fats, fried food, sweets, cakes, cream and soft drinks. Try to take coffee and tea without sugar or cream. Snacks can be part of your diet. For example, a piece of fruit or a simple dessert saved from mealtime can be eaten between meals.
