二、阅读理解（3道小题，共30分）
James is a middle-aged New York builder. He ’s lonely. Just like everyone else, James needs human contact from time to time, and he ’s found a way: at cuddle (拥抱) parties.
New York can be a terrible place: it has a high murder rate and some seriously disturbed people living in it. But James says he ’s comfortable at a New York apartment with twenty strange people. The floor of the “cuddle zone ” is soon covered with complete strangers snuggling (依偎) and cuddling, but that ’s as far as it goes.
Cuddle parties are the latest trend for lonely, isolated city folks who want to meet people and become safely intimate. The safety comes from rules before you come, bring clean clothes, ask permission before you cuddle, and keep your clothes on. “We have ‘cuddle lifeguards ’ to make sure everyone sticks to the rules, ” says Mihalko. The lifeguards make sure nobody gets out of line, and everyone goes home feeling better than when they arrived.
Once the cuddle party is in full swing, people are soon crawling on top of one another, stretching out like dogs ready for a nap. Mihalko admits that the whole idea “might seem a little odd ” at first. But research has shown that being touched by other people helps reduce stress and can help sick people heal faster.
1. According to the passage, which of the following about James is true?
A) He is old
B) He is rich and happy.
C) He constructs buildings.
D) He has established cuddle parties.
2. What is the relationship among people at the cuddle parties?
A) They are friends.
B) They are relatives.
C) They are lovers.
D) They do not know each other.
3. What do people do at the cuddle zone?
A) They talk and cuddle.
B) They snuggle and hug.
C) They cuddle and take off their clothes.
D) They cuddle and kiss.
4. What should “cuddle lifeguards” make sure?
A) Everyone being cuddled should be glad to do so.
B) People should not make friends in the parties.
C) Strangers should not cuddle each other.
D) People can get out of line.
5. From the passage, we can infer that ______＿.
A) people in New York feel especially lonely
B) New York is a terrible city to live in
C) some Americans consider cuddling people they do not know a strange action at first.
D) being touched by strangers does no good to human health
In a job interview, the first question is often a ″breaking the ice″ type of question. Donˊt be surprised if the interviewer asks you something like: “How are you today?″ or ″What do you think of the weather lately?″ Answer the question without going into too much detail.
Talking about qualifications is the most important part of any job interview. Your qualifications include your education and any special training you may have received in
the past. Your qualifications also include your experience in any previous work. It is important to explain what experience you have in detail. Generally, employers want to know exactly what you did and how well you accomplished your tasks. This is not the time to be modest.
Try to avoid some big mistakes in the job interview, such as leaving the mobile on and criticizing previous bosses. The worst thing is you yourself have no questions. Having no questions shows you are either not interested or not prepared. Remember that interviewers are more impressed with the questions you ask than the selling points you
try to make.
1. The passage is mainly about ____________＿＿.
A) the typical questions asked in job interviews
B) importance of interviewees’ qualifications in job interviews
C) some common mistakes found in job interviews
D) Do’s and Don’ts in job interviews
2. A ″breaking the ice″ type of question is ____________.
A) a question that makes people unhappy
B) an opening question asked to make people less nervous
C) a sharp question that makes people angry
D) a question asked about serious topic
3. All of the following are considered to be the interviewee’s qualifications except ______.
A) educational background
B) social background
C) all kinds of special training received
D) experience in previous work
4. ______＿ is not mentioned in the passage as a mistake found in job interviews.
A) Leaving the mobile on
B) Criticizing previous bosses
C) Having no questions
D) Arriving late
5. If an interviewee has no question in the job interview, it may show he ______＿.
A) is not interested or not prepared
B) is modest
C) is familiar with the job
D) has good manners
Do you know American Toughman? That is amateur boxing competitions around the U.S. Compared to professional boxing matches, a Toughman fight could not be simpler. Passing
a brief physical examination and paying $50 get you a pair of gloves. The fights take place in three two-minute rounds with the winner decided by points awarded by a judge.
The prize money doesn’t compare with professional matches either. Some professional boxers make millions every time, while the most a Toughman competitor can hope for is
$1,000 for winning a series of fights. Some fighters hope that a Toughman boxing match will lead to fame and fortune though. Mr. T, a famous tough guy actor, got his start in Toughman, but that kind of success is one-in-a-million.
Another difference between Toughman and professional matches is that Toughman fighters usually have no idea what they’re doing. The $50 entrance fee doesn’t buy a minute of training. Experienced fighters are trained to protect themselves as well as attack their opponents, but Toughman fighters could barely keep their hands up. Art Dore, who founded the league 24 years ago, admits, “These guys can’t fight. ” This kind of inexperience can be fatal; 12 people have been killed in Toughman matches, four
in the past nine months alone.
1. Participation in a Toughman competition costs ______.
A) $1,000
B) $50
C) millions dollars
D) one million dollars
2. A Toughman fight usually last ______ minutes
A) one
B) two
C) three
D) six
3. The main reason that some boxers are hurt in Toughman fight is that they ______.
A) have improper manners
B) are lack of training
C) are distracted by the noisy crowd
D) are controlled by unfair judges
4. The most famous person to emerge from Toughman competitions is ______.
A) Lennox Lewis
B) Art Dore
C) Mr.T
D) Mike Tyson
5. It is ＿＿＿＿＿＿ that participation in Toughman can lead to fame and fortune.
A) common sense
B) very rare
C) never seen
D) natural
