When his IPO roadshow video, delivered to shareholders in the US, went viral, for many, it was the first time they‘d heard Ma speak English. Ma learned English in an academic setting, but here he adapted his language skills to cross the threshold into the financial and business contexts. This speech released last week finds Ma‘s tone spot on as he tries to tell the tale of a Chinese business pursuing its dreams, big and small.―Hello, I'm Jack Ma, founder and chairman of Alibaba Group. Fifteen years ago, 18 founders in my apartment had a dream that someday we can build up a company that can serve millions of small business. Today, it remains our mission to make it easy to do business anywhere.At Alibaba, we fight for the little guy, the small businessmen and women and their customers. Our role is simple: through our ecosystem, we help merchants and customers find each other and conduct business on their terms and in ways that best serve their unique needs. We help merchants to grow, create jobs and open new markets in ways that were never before possible.Today, 15 years has passed. We‘ve grown so significantly and have become a household name in China. And soon, we‘ll be ready for the world to know us.You will hear details from our business later. But first let me take you on a journey around China, to see some of the real people, real stories that Alibaba has an impact on.[Personal stories of small businesses]I am proud to share with you these stories that show the heart and spirit of Alibaba. I‘m proud that we ignite(激发)innovation, create jobs benefit customers and help entrepreneurs fulfill their dreams.With Alibaba‘s platforms, people are improving their lives today, and have hope for a better tomorrow. From our humble beginnings and throughout the past 15 years, Alibaba has changed commerce in China. Our business has grown, but we never lost sight of our customers, focusing on solving their problems, leading to the best outcome for our business.Alibaba has come a long way, but we want to be a company that can last 102 years.

(a) New Zealand is abundant with natural wonders.(b) Caves there are crowded with glowworms.COne of the biggest va riables when flying is the company that you‘re forced to keep. Whether you're in economy or business, aisle or window, there will almost always be someone sitting next to you –and if that person is particularly odoriferous(有气味的), anxious or loud, your experience could suddenly be changed.But with recent upgrades(飞机座位提级) allowing noise-conscious passengers to choose a seat away from children, having at least one type of less-than-desirable seatmate could soon be a thing of the past.Last week, Scoot airlines, the budget branch of Singapore Airlines, announced that seats in child-free areas, nick-named t he ―ScootinSilence‖ rows, can now be booked for a small fee. In addition to extra leg room and a better seat pitch, you are also liberated from having to sit with children 12 and under.―Just as there are som e people who prefer to travel without checked baggage, or to sleep rather than eat… there are some who would rather travel with adults. We‘re simply providing the option to do so,‖ said Scoot Airlines CEO Campbell Wilson.In September 2012, AirAsia X launched a similar service in their premium economy cabin, and Malaysian Airlines has a similar policy on the upper-deck economy cabin of its A380 jumbo jet, which it flies on select long-haul routes.The trend seems to be catching on quickly in Asia, perhaps because culturally the region consider the wealthier business savvy class more important and is eager to please rich customers.But could child-free zones spread around the world? Not necessarily.―I don't think that we'll ever see child-free zones on US carriers, any more than we'll see the return of smoking zones. In the politically correct United States, it would be considered discriminatory to exclude passengers with kids from certain cabin se ctions,‖ said George Hobica, founder of . ―But in Asia, where it's legal to 'retire' flight attendants when they reach the ripe old age of 35, a different sensibility applies.‖The issue that Western airlines will need to consider is the strong consumer voice, which could create a significant and harmful image problem for the carriers. In Asia, that community is not as loud ,and they don‘t protest much. Disturbing the consumer base and any potential discrimination litigation(诉讼) that would follow may create risks that Western carrier s aren‘t willing to take.62. What does the first paragraph mean?A. The class of seats you are sitting in determines the quality of the trip.B. The class of seats do not matter because the experience is the same.C. The people you are sitting with determines the quality of the trip.D. The people you are sitting with do not matter because the experience is the same.63. What prevents child-free zones spread around the world?A. That there are smoking zones.B. The political control over seatings on planes in countries like the USC. That people from other countries are not as age-sensible as AsiansD. The value of fairness in other countries64. What is the opinion of the author?A. He likes the idea of child-free zones.B. He does not like the idea of child-free zones.C. We are not told.D. He does not like travelling in business classes.65. What is the argument from Scoot Airlines CEO?A. He thinks people are travelling without children more and more.B. He thinks carriers should charge an extra fee for each extra service.C. He thinks carriers should offer more options to cater to different customers.D. He thinks people are paying less for flights because people do not want to payfor food and luggage.DPeople are being lured (引诱)onto Facebook with the promise of a fun, free service without realizing they‘re paying for it by giving up loads of personal information. Facebook then attempts to make money by selling their data to advertisers that want to send targeted messages.Most Facebook users don‘t realize this is happening. Even if they know what the company is up to, they still have no idea what they‘re paying for Face book because people do n‘t really know what their personal data is worth.The biggest problem, however, is that the company keeps changing the rules. Early on, you could keep everything private. That was the great thing about facebook --you could create your own little private network. Last year, the company changed its privacy rules so that many things-- your city, y our photo, your friends‘ names-were set, by default (默认)to be shared with everyone on the Internet.According to Facebook‘s vice-president Elliot Schrage, the company is simply making changes to improve its service, and if people don‘t share information, they have a ―less satisfying experience‖.Some critics think this is more about Facebook looking to make more money. Its original business model, which involved selling ads and putting them at the side of the pages, totally failed. Who wants to l ook at ads when they‘re online connecting with their friends?The privacy issue has already landed Facebook in hot water in Washington. InApril, Senator Charles Schumer called on Facebook to change its privacy policy. He also urged the Federal Trade Commission to set guidelines for social-networking sites.―I think the senator rightly communicated that we had not been clear about what the new products were and how pe ople could choose to use them or not to use them,‖ Schrage admits.I suspect that whatever Facebook has done so far to invade our privacy, it‘s only the beginning, w hich is why I‘m considering deactivating(撤销)my account. Facebook is a handy site, but I‘m upset by the idea that my information is in the hands of people I don‘t trust. That‘s too high a price to pay.66.What do we learn about Facebook from the first paragraph?A. It is a website that sends messages to targeted users.B. It makes money by putting on advertisements.C. It profits by selling its users‘ personal data.D. It provides loads of information to its users.67.What does the author say about most Facebook users?A. They are unwilling to give up their personal information.B. T h ey don‘t know their personal data enriches Facebook.C. They don‘t identify themselves when using the website.D. They care very little about their personal information.68.Why does Facebook make changes to its rules according to Elliot Schrage?A. To provide better service for its users.B. To obey the Federal guidelines.C. To improve its users‘ connectivity.D. To expand its range of business.69.What does Senator Charles Schumer advocate?A. Setting guidelines for advertising on websites.B. Banning the sharing of users‘ personal information.C. Making regulations for social-networking sites.D. Removing ads from all social-networking sites.70.Why does the author plan to cancel his Facebook account?A. He is dissatisfied with its current service.B. He finds many of its users untrustworthy.C. He doesn‘t want his personal data abused.D. He is upset by its frequent rule changes.第II卷(非选择题,共45分)五、任务型阅读(10%)阅读短文,根据所读内容在文章后图表中的空格里填入最恰当的单词(每空1词) Interviewing someone for a job is not as easy as it looks. First, as the interviewer, you‘re tasked with finding the person who will not only do the job well but also fit in well with the other employees.You have to make an evaluation of abs tract qualities that can‘t be found on a résumé. Because you have to repeat the process for every potential employee, you end up asking question after question, applicant after applicant.Still, interviewers need to be told something: ―What is your biggest weakness?‖ is not a good question. It just isn‘t.Now, job seekers have to understand that interviewers want to find some way to know what makes an applicant different from others. Asking questions that are seemingly impossible to answer is one way to see who can think creatively. Then what may be a proper way to respond to such a question?Honesty, with a twist(新手法)―‗What are your three strengths and three weaknesses?‘ is a classic, but not too many people know how to answer this,‖ says Kenneth C. Wisne fski, founder and CEO of WebiMax, an online marketing company.―As an interviewer, we want to hear strengths that describe initiative(主动性), motivation and dedication. The best way to respond is to include these qualities into specific ‗personal statements.‘‖―Similarly, weaknesses should be positioned as a strength that can benefit the employer.‖―I like to hear applicants state an exaggerated strength, and put an interesting twist on it. An example of this is, ‗My initiative is so strong, that sometimes I take on too many projects at a time.‘‖This answer leads with a strength that employers want —initiative —and still acknowledges that you‘re not perfect.Although you might consider this acknowledgement too honest, it works because it proves you‘re being honest.Honesty, with progressWhen you consider what your weaknesses are, think about how you have attempted to overcome them. No one is perfect, so pretending that you are a perfectionist will come across as insincere.Debra Davenport, author of ―Career Shuffle,‖ believes citing(引用) examples are the best approach.―My preferred response for this question is to tell the truth without damaging the applicant‘s image.‖ Davenport explains.―A better response might be, ‗I‘ve had some challenges with work-life balance in the past and I realize that a life out of balance isn‘t good for me, my family or my employer. I‘ve taken the time to learn better time and project management, and I‘m also committed to my overall wellness.‖The answer adds some dimension to the question, and proves you‘ve thought beyond the answer. You‘ve actually changed your behavior to address the situation, even if you haven‘t completely overcome the weakness.Put yourself in the interviewer’s shoesHowever you decide to answer, Debra Ye rgen, author of ―Creating Job Security Resource Guide,‖ recommends job seekers imagine themselves sitting on the other side of the desk.六、单词拼写: (10%)81. ______(负担) with a big family, the man had to work three jobs.82.
