Together, we’re the dream team.”They met at a rock climbing class and got to know of their love of nature. Knecht had spent her childhood camping outdoors, and had been to Easter Island recently and climbed high cliffs (峭壁) in a carrier placed on someone’s back.Hahn was also an outdoor sports person, and even after he lost his sight, he kept at it. They two decided to go out into the Colorado wilderness. So Knecht is secured in a carrier, and lifted by a friend onto Hahn’s back, and Hahn hikes along the path with Knecht giving him directions. “I describe everything I see and exactly how Hahn needs to move,” Knecht said.They love the fact that when hiking together, they are able to give the opportunity to each other to do what may seem impossible. “It made me so happy to help someone experience what I’ve been able to experience in my life,” Hahn said. Knecht is able to feel free. “I’ve been in a wheelchair my whole life, and it’s an amazing feeling to leave it,” she said.These two are now encouraging the physically healthy people to think more about helping their friends with disabilities. “Ask questions of people with disabilities, to see what they like and what they want to do. Don’t not include them because you think they won’t be able to do something,” Knecht said.21. What do we know about Knecht and Hahn?A. They were born disabled.B. They met through a friend.C. They had the same interest.D. They enjoyed studying rock.22. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to?A. The path.B. The team.C. The mountain.D. The wheelchair.23. What does the last paragraph intend to tell us?A. Disabled people should be involved in normal activities.B. Disabled people face many difficulties in their life.C. People should spend more time with their friends.D. People should exercise more to keep healthy.24. What is the best title for the text?A. Challenges for disabled peopleB. Benefits of taking part in outdoor activitiesC. Two disabled people admiring wonderful viewsD. Two disabled people reaching new heights togetherBThe accent is the way you pronounce the words of a language. Everyone has an accent, and no one is accent-free. And for every accent, there are groups of people who react badly to it. These reactions are the result of prejudice. No accent is free from such prejudices.I have held and expressed prejudices about other people’s accents. Over the decades, my experience of working with people from a wide range of backgrounds has led me to give up these prejudices. However, I still have prejudices that I find difficult to control in relation to some particular accents.Language experts tell us that no accent is better than any other. But the reality is that the wider world likes the idea of simple rules which tell us what is right and wrong. We like to judge others on the basis of these rules. If you break these rules, you are somehow to blame. Jacob Rees Mogg recalls when he first stood unsuccessfully for election (选举) in Fife, Scotland: “I gradually realized that whatever I happened to be speaking about, the number of voters in my favor dropped as soon as I opened my mouth.”And some people make their accents sound gentler when talking to people outside their circle of family and friends. However, Sky News ran a report recently in which a British woman Jemima was trying to sound less posh (上等人的), because she didn’t like random people telling her that she must be rich and from an upper-class background.Lastly, it’s worth being reminded that people can be accented — even highly accented — and still be easily understood.25. Why did Jacob fail in the election?A. He was unwise.B. He spoke with an accent.C. He broke the election rules.D. He was unable to make himself understood.26. What did Jemima try to do according to Sky News?A. Change her accent.B. Speak the standard English.C. Pretend to be a well-educated person.D. Speak with the upper-class British accent.27. Which of the following would the author agree with?A. People had better speak without an accent.B. Everybody has prejudices about accents.C. People should be proud of their accents.D. People are judged by their accents.CIn the last decade, Google has spent millions of dollars on measuring nearly every aspect of its employees’ lives — from what characters the best managers share to how often particular people eat together. Google was determined to find out how to form “the perfect team”.The company’s managers worked hard on finding the perfect group of people necessary to form an excellent team. They believed that building good teams meant combining the best people. But it wasn’t that simple.In 2012 Google ran a project known as Project Aristotle. It took several years and included interviews with hundreds of employees. The project led to the same conclusion that good managers have always known: In the best teams, members are able to understand other people’s feelings, and most importantly, listen to one another.Matt, a manager at Google, was eager to put Project Aristo tle’s findings into practice. He took his team outside the office to talk about his cancer diagnosis (诊断). Although his colleagues were silent in the beginning, they then began sharing their own personal stories.At the heart of Matt’s plan and Google’s fi ndings is the idea of “psychological safety”. Google now describes psychological safety as the most important factor (因素) in building a successful team.Google concluded that in the best team, all members should contribute to the conversation equally, and respect one another’s emotions. It has less to do with who is in the team, and more with how the members communicate with one another.28. Why did Google spend so much money on learning about its employees?A. To make the best team.B. To improve their lives.C. To enlarge the company.D. To find the best managers.29. What is the most important quality of the best-team members?A. They are creative.B. They are eager to learn.C. They are good listeners.D. They are ready to help others.30. What is the story intended to do?A. To introduce the development of Google.B. To figure out the key to a successful team.C. To show how to work together with others.D. To prove the importance of communication.第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
