21．（6分）A new family moved in next door and I got to meet the mother of the family, Lydia.
Lydia is Korean, and her family moved to our city so her husband could go to graduate school. We started talking, and she was apologetic about how bad her English was, but I didn’t care. I knew how hard it was to learn a second language. I enjoyed chatting with Lydia as we watched our kids play.
It was what came next that challenged me: Lydia asked if I’d be willing to help her with her English.
Now, I am not a teacher. I admire teachers, and I’m grateful for teachers, and it’s because I admire what they do so mu ch that I was very, very sure that I couldn’t do it myself.
But Lydia was sure that she wanted my help. I was doubtful. I wasn’t sure my “help” was even worth being called by that name.
But because she asked me, I said “yes.”
And that was the beginning of 过friendship. Lydia and I spent afternoons sitting together and reading the newspaper, and as we did, she asked me questions when she had them — questions about language, yes, but also questions about the new culture she found herself in.
In turn, I asked my own questions, growing curious about her home country and culture. We bonded over our shared faith and our struggles as mothers of kids with special needs. When I complimented (恭维)her cooking, she began to teach me about Korean food, eventually leading to a shared trip to explore the Korean grocery stores in our city.
Because of Lydia, I learned more about my own hometown than I ever could have learned by myself.
I’m still not sure that I’m any good as a teacher. But I’m grateful I said “yes” when my nei ghbor asked me to help her with her English. That meant spending extra time with my neighbor, and that extra time meant she didn’t remain just my neighbor. She became my friend.
1、What was Lydia sorry about?
A．Her bad English. B．Her carelessness.
C．Nobody teaching her English. D．Her poor life in a new place.
2、What can be concluded from the fourth paragraph?
A．The author admired teachers.
B．The author wanted to be a teacher.
C．The author didn’t want to help Lydia.
D．The author was not confident in helping Lydia.
3、Why was the author grateful at the last paragraph?
A．She managed to learn English well.
B．She made friends with her neighbor.
C．She learned how to cook Korean food.
D．She realized her dream of being a teacher.
4、What can we learn from the passage?
A．No pains, no gains.
B．A friend in need is a friend indeed.
C．To help others is to help ourselves.
D．Where there is a will, there is a way.
22．（8分）One evening at a busy crossroads, I noticed a sister struggling to keep her little kid under control while she talked on the pay phone. She wanted him to stay still next to her, but he wanted to run and play by the road, close to rushing buses and taxis. One could sense the woman’s frustration, that she was pulled in too many directions: She was angry at t he person on the telephone and shouting at the younger that she would “snap（折断）his leg” if he moved again. As I waited for the traffic light to change, the child began to complain and struggle to free himself from the woman’s grasp. She dropped the phone, seized（抓住）the neck of his tiny. T-shirt and gave him a back-hand blow across the face that I know made his little head spin.
The light changed, and passers-by continued on their way. But I stood there, fixed to the pavement. I knew this extremely upset woman would carry through on her threat of violence to the child. Before, I had wanted to get close to her and offer to watch the youngster while she dealt with the troubling situation on the phone. Now I wanted to comfort the little boy. I also wanted to speak to the sister to calm her and to caution（告诫）her, as I wish someone had cautioned me when I was passing my pain on to my daughter and causing her emotional suffering. But I was chicken. I thought, she may think I’m out of line, or I may be her next targe t.
Often I’ve thought about that child and the many others abused（虐待）by adults. I wonder how they will internalize （使……藏在心底）their pain, and if it will crush their spirits. Will this little boy grow up to be an abusive man? Will he be gloomy（阴郁的，沮丧的）and withdrawn（孤僻，内向的）? Will he find it hard to communicate with women, with other men? Or will he survive and be sensitive, caring and determined not to continue the cycle?
There is too much cruelty（残忍）in the world, too much cruelty between people. I tremble at the increasing verbal （言语的）bitterness and violence among Black girls, and among young mothers trying to discipline their children. This
behavior isn’t class-or age-related: I hear sharp words from Black women from all walks of life who are overworked and stressed out and have grown impatient. At times I, too, become impolite to others, or, like the sister on the phone, strike out at（抨击）those closest to me.
Often we’re tired because we've made the wrong choices. Y oung girls who still need mothering are loaded w ith children. We sisters easily get hurt and annoyed when we don’t compromise with our own sense of self. Our personal fulfillment requires knowing what is best for us, setting our boundaries（界限）and keeping them undamaged. We will always be asked to do more than we are comfortable doing. When we know our boundaries, we can decline comfortably. People—and we ourselves—will act in ways we don’t like. But they, like us, are still worthy of love.
Whatever irritates（激怒）us about a person should be examined. Is the person reflecting behavior in us that needs to be changed? Often, when I find people irritating, I find they mirror something about me that I need to correct.
What’s needed in our personal relationships is a return to gentleness and tolerance（容忍）. We must allow one another our learning experiences. Just as violence results to violence, verbal violence—the hard words and sharp tones we use to release inner stress—adds to the distance between us.
What we people of African root must do to become, and continue to be strong begins with love, sensitivity and our ability to work together. We Black women have these spiritual resources in abundance（丰富）. Now we must encourage them to create a peaceful place—for ourselves, our children, our men.
1、We can learn from the passage the mother of the little kid must be ________.
A．frustrated and hot-tempered B．cruel and talkative
C．confused and quick-minded D．considerate and sensitive
2、By saying “She may think I am out of line”, the author meant the woman might say ________.
A．“You’re not standing in the queue.”
B．“You can watch and comfort my kid.”
C．“Walk away. It’s none of your business.”
D．“You are walking in the wrong direction.”
3、The wrong choices the author mentions in Paragraph 5 include ________.
a. We sisters refuse to marry young
b. We aren’t satisfied with ourselves
c. We have our boundaries damaged
d. We decline others’ requests for help
A．a, b B．c, d
C．a, d D．b, c
4、According to the author, when we find a person irritating, we should ________.
A．return to gentleness and tolerance
B．reflect on our behavior that needs correcting
C．avoid the hard words and sharp tones
D．examine if anything is wrong with him
23．（8分）It's a little hard to figure out the rules for sure but the baby African buffalo (水牛）seems to have the upper hand. The two stand a couple feet apart, staring at each other. Behind them, their mothers look on with the kind of indifference (不关心）of mothers everywhere who see their kids playing a harmless game.
The alarm went off about half an hour ago, the second time tonight. Here，one bell means "elephant ",two "rhino"(犀牛），and three and four，I really can't remember for what，because when you' re awoken by bells in the middle of the night，your first thought won’t be Animal", But as soon as I reali zed it was the rhino alarm, I was running for the stairs.
Yet I'm the only one watching the animals stare-down. Either nobody else died of a heart attack when the bells went off, or I was the only one in the entire hotel who didn't turn the alarm switch to off before going to bed.
The Ark, a hotel shaped like the biblical ark(圣经的方舟), lies in the highlands of Kenya’s Aberdare National Park, about 100 kilometers north of Nairobi. At the Ark's prow (船首) are huge windows overlooking a waterhole. Earlier tonight，I'd watched a pack of wolves, buffalos and elephants. And now, at Three or so in the mornings I'm down
for the round of rhino bells. The first time, 2.5 hours ago, it was a single black rhino, which came down, got a drink, and left.
I'd have been sorry for the lost sleep. I've already arranged with a guide to take me out at sunrise for the so-called "should-never-missed" bird-watching, where well get to see 30 species, but really, how many times in your life will you get to wake up and say，"Wow! Rhino? Isn't that the definition of a pretty good right? Last week we went from Uganda into Kenya，Before I left home, I thought I'd be happy with ten elephants and five or six giraffes on the whole trip.I didn't dare to dream the rhino.
1、The message that the hotel's bells sent was .
A．a very wise way the author had never heard of
B．hard for the author to remember in detail
C．a matter that all visitors had got used to
D．like conditioned response training for animals
2、What's the author's attitude toward the bell?
A．It's bothering but two bells are welcome.
B．It should be turned off whenever it rings,
C．Its visitors have a chance to see buffalos.
D．It is a very bad way to wake the guests up.
3、What does the underlined part “died of a heart attack" in paragraph 3 me an ?
A．died unexpectedly
B．felt extremely excited
C．felt very uncomfortable and tired
D．suffered from a terrible heart attack
4、What did the author see at about 3:00 a.m.?
A．Two buffalos were fighting fiercely for food,
B．A rhino and a buffalo were fighting for water.
C．A rhino and a buffalo were staring at each other.
D．A buffalo was teaching its baby to walk freely.
24．（8分）Whenever we talk about holidays, my mother teases my sister and me about how we “make out like robbers.” She is referring to the fact that we are half Jewish and half Indian, so we receive gifts on both the. festivals of lights. Hanukkah and Diwali. Though my mother teases us, I do not mind getting two sets of gifts!
Hanukkah is celebrated on the 25th day of the Jewish month. which is usually sometime in December. On Hanukkah, like most Jewish families. we light a menorah and say a prayer each night. We also say a special prayer on the first night. After that, it is a tradition tor my sister and me to do ‘hot and cold’, for our hidde n Hanukkah gifts. When we walk towards the gift, our parents say ‘hot’ and when we walk further away, they say ‘cold’. We each receive one present every night of Hanukkah. Another part I like about this holiday is seeing family members who we do not see often. My aunt usually stays for a few days, and we sometimes visit other relatives.
Diwali is celebrated on the 13th day of the dark fortnight of the month of Ashwin(October / November). To celebrate Diwali, my family does a pooja, or prayers, in honor of the goddess Lakshmi. Since she is the goddess of wealth and prosperity, the pooja includes washing silver coins in milk and water. In India, people decorate their houses with lamps, similar to the way you might light up your house for Christmas. My family just places a few candles outside We also set off firecrackers, which is my favorite part. We often do this activity with friends to add to the excitement.
Both holidays have different histories and stories We celebrate them in different ways, yet they both have the same meaning. They both translate into. Festival of Lights, and they both mean family and presents for me!
1、Why does the author receive gifts on both Hanukkah and Diwali?
A．Because he lives in a rich family.
B．Because he lives in two different countries.
C．Because his parents like celebrating their different cultures.
D．Because his parents like spending money buying gifts for them.
2、What does the underlined phrase “hot and cold” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A．A kind of Hanukkah game.
B．A kind of Hanukkah gift.
C．A can of festival drink.
D．A riddle written on lights.
3、we can learn from the text that Hanukkah and Diwali .
A．share the same history and culture
B．are celebrated by both Jews and Indians
C．are both related to the legend of lights
D．encourage the families to do their prayers
4、What is the author’s attitude towards Hanukkah and Diwali?
A．She enjoys celebrating both of them.
B．She does mind spending them.
C．She likes Hanukkah better.
D．She likes Diwali better.
25．（10分）Business depends on productivity and employee’s interaction(互动) with customers. The more productive a company is and the better its customer service is, the more income it makes. Productivity is measured by the output of employees. No other factor influences productivity and customer interaction more than how the employees think about their job.
Working environments are not the same. Blame Donais, in his book Workplaces That Work, defines culture as “a system of shared beliefs, values and norms(规范) that shape behavior”. Th is system of shared beliefs creates the atmosphere in which the employees work and determines their worth in the company, their opportunities within the company and their opinions of their managers.
A review of the culture of the workplace helps the management team to create models that inspire a more productive and employee-friendly culture. Understanding the workplace culture gives the management insight（洞察力）as to what hinders(阻碍) production, what can be changed and what policies can be added.
Negative cultures discourage employees, form having opinions. This is generally a result of a management team that only sees employees for their production values. Employees who don’t feel valued move on to companies that
encourage their input. The high turnover results in less qualified employees.
Positive workplace cultures keep more employees. Employees who remain in positions for extended periods of time develop relationships with preferred customers and can often be the reason that a customer does business with a company. Motivated employees value the company’s assets（资产）more, and their decisions reflect this value.
Joan Hodgins, a management psychologist, insists that “Research shows organizations that are committed to developing and maintaining a culture of ‘dignity at work’, harvest the benefits in terms of financial results.” Blame Donais advises that large workplaces be aware of subcultures that can develop in different regions in the world. Large companies may need outside help to create national or global platforms to encourage a united culture among all their locations.
1、What influences a company most according to the text?
A．Its customer service. B．Its efficient production.
C．Its managers’ work attitude. D．Its employees’ opinions about work.
2、What c an we learn about Blame Donais’ attitude?
A．He thins people have different opinions on negative cultures.
B．He thinks large workplaces should maintain a different culture.
C．He thinks the system of shared beliefs is not fit for workplaces.
D．He thinks subcultures are of great importance to large workplaces.
3、What way be the best title for the text?
A．The Importance of Workplace Culture
B．The Disadvantages of Workplace Culture
C．How to Choose a Qualified Company
D．How to Employ Qualified Employees
