I try not to be biased(有偏见的) but I had my doubts about hiring Stevie. His social worker assured me that he would be a good, reliable busboy. But I had never had a mentally handicapped employee. He was short, a little fat, with the smooth facial features and thick-tongued speech of Down’s Syndrome. I thought most of my customers would be uncomfortable around Stevie, so I closely watched him for the first few weeks. I shouldn’t have worried. After the first week, Stevie had my staff wrapped around his stubby little finger, and within a month my regular trucker customers had adopted him as their official truck stop mascot(吉祥物). After that, I really didn’t care what the rest of the customers thought of him. He was like a 21-year-old in blue jeans and Nikes, eager to laugh and eager to please, but fierce in his attention to his duties. Every salt and pepper shaker was exactly in its place, not a bread crumb or coffee spill was visible when Stevie got done with the table. Our only problem was persuading him to wait to clean a table until after the customers were finished. Over time, we learned that he lived with his mother, a widow who was disabled. Money was tight, and what I paid him was probably the difference between them being able to live together and Stevie being sent to a group home. That’s why the restaurant was a gloomy place that morning last August, the first morning in three years that Stevie missed work. He was at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester getting a heart surgery. His social worker said that people with Down’s Syndrome often had heart problems at an early age and there was a good chance he would come through the surgery in good shape and be back at work in a few months. A ripple of excitement ran through the staff later that morning when word came that he was out of surgery, in recovery, and doing fine. Frannie, my head waitress, did a little dance when she heard the good news. Belle Ringer, one of our regular trucker customers, stared at her and asked, “Okay, Frannie, what was that all about?” “We just got word that Stevie is out of surgery and going to be okay.” “I was wondering where he was. I had a new joke to tell him. What was the surgery about?” Frannie quickly told Belle Ringer and the other two drivers sitting at his booth about Stevie’s surgery, then sighed: “Yeah, I’m glad he is going to be OK,” she said. “But I don’t know how he and his Mom are going to handle all the bills. From what I hear, they’re barely getting by as it is.” Belle Ringer nodded thoughtfully, and Frannie hurried off to wait on the rest of her tables. After the morning rush, Frannie walked into my office. She had a couple of paper napkins in her hand. “What’s up?” I asked. “I cleared off that table where Belle Ringer and his friends were sitting after they left, and I found this. This was folded and tucked under a coffee cup.” She handed the napkin to me, and three 20 bills fell onto my desk when I opened it. On the outside, in big, bold letters, was printed “Something For Stevie”. That was three months ago. Today is New Year’s Day, the first day Stevie is supposed to be back to work. His social worker said he had been counting the days until the doctor said he could work. I arranged to have his mother bring him to work, met them in the parking lot and invited them both to celebrate his day back. I took him and his mother by their arms. “To celebrate you coming back, breakfast for you and your mother is on me.” I led them toward a large corner booth. I could feel and hear truck customers and the rest of the staff following behind as we marched through the dining room. We stopped in front of the big table. Its surface was covered with coffee cups and dinner plates, all sitting slightly on dozens of folded paper napkins. “First thing you have to do, Stevie, is clean up this mess,” I said. Stevie looked at me, and then pulled out one of the napkins. It had “Something for Stevie” printed on the outside. As he picked it up, two 10 bills fell onto the table. Stevie stared at the money, then at all the napkins peeking from beneath the tableware, each with his name printed on it. I turned to his mother. “There’s more than 10,000 incash and checks on that table, all from truckers and trucking companies that heard about your problems. Happy Thanksgiving!” While everybody else was busy shaking hands and hugging each other, Stevie, with a big, big smile on his face, was busy clearing all the cups and dishes from the table. 【小题】(1) Why did the author have doubts about hiring Stevie?A.Stevie was not that reliable.B.Stevie was mentally disabled.C.Stevie was too short and fat.D.Stevie was bad-tempered.【小题】(2) What made the author not fully satisfied with Stevie’s work?A.That he made customers uncomfortable.B.That he couldn’t pay attention to his duties.C.That he often spilled cups of coffee.D.That he usually cleaned the table too early.【小题】(3) By saying the underlined words in Paragraph 3, the author meant that the money she paid Stevie ___.A.could help Stevie out of the troubleB.could send Stevie to a group homeC.couldn’t thoroughly solve Stevie’s problemD.could make little difference to Stevie’s life【小题】(4) Why did the author ask Stevie to clean up the mess on the table?A.Stevie could pick up the money that was given to him.B.The table was so dirty that it needed cleaning.C.It was Stevie’s duty to clean the table.D.She wanted to congratulate Stevie on his coming back.【小题】(5) What made Stevie popular among the staff and customers in the restaurant?A.His special appearance.B.His hard work and optimism.C.His funny speeches and actions.D.His kind-hearted behaviour..

B Not very long ago, a special family system(体系) existed in certain parts of South India. In this system, the actual head of a family unit was the mother’s eldest brother, though the mother also had an important position in the family. In families of this kind, a husband was actually no more than a visitor. He did not live with his wife, but with his own mother, brothers and sisters in another house. He saw his sons and daughters sometimes, but the man who actually fed and cared for them and acted as their father was their uncle—their mother’s brother. But this system, in which brother and sisters take the place of the father, no longer exists in South India except in a few villages. Economic changes have had far-reaching effect on family life. Family life began to change when men went out to work in factories and offices instead of working with their mothers, brothers, and sisters on the land. When a man went out to work he had money of his own and could buy his own land and build his own family, instead of depending on his mother and his brothers. He wanted to be independent. This is an example of the way in which economic relations can have an effect on family relationships. (1) 25.The best title of this passage is______. A. Husband Actually Visitor in Family B. Family System in South India C. Wife Has Important Position in Family D. Economic Relations Affects Family Relationships (2) 26.Who had the actual control of a family in South India not long ago? A. The mother. B. The mother‘s eldest brother. C. The father D. The father‘s mother. (3) 27.What has caused such a strange family system to die away? A. The fact that the mother has not got any brother. B. The fact that the father has got his own house and land. C. The changes in economic relations. D. The changes in family relationships.

The vast majority of job advertisements call for "good communication skills." It is a term that is used regularly in the workplace, yet very few people understand this expression in full. Communication is interaction and is vital in business, perhaps more so than anywhere else. Communication is the thing that ensures smooth operation between staff members, employers and clients. Employers need to use excellent communication skills in order to get the very best out of their employees. Employees need to use communication skills when talking to clients as well as colleagues and employers. Communication doesn't always refer to conversation. There are many ways in which you will need to communicate whilst at work. Written communication is often forgotten about when applying for a job. Your application letter, for example, is a form of communication. This is why it is so important that it is well written and correct in grammar. At some point when working in an office environment, you will most likely have to write emails and/or letters. You should ensure that these always look and sound professional. Another form of communication is that between employees. Regardless of how good you are at your job, if you don't form at least basic relationships with those around you, it will ultimately affect your success. Bad communication leads to misunderstandings. Many employers organize social events to encourage good communication between staff members. In order for companies to succeed, communication between them and their clients has to be perfect. To ensure that business continues to flow, a company's clients have to be able to trust them implicitly. This can never be the case if there is any miscommunication. Many companies decide that it is a good idea to hire a Head of Communication. This person will be the sole point of contact for all clients. This removes any opportunity for misunderstanding as all communication runs through one person. In conclusion, communication in the workplace is a key element of any company. It ensures the smooth running of the day-to-day business and guarantees that employees feel happy and secure.1. Why is it especially important to master the communication skills in business?A) It is helpful for employers to know their employees.B) It is vital for constructing the harmonious relationship.C) It ensures the smooth operation between people concerned. D) It guarantees employees' constant improvement in business.2. Employers are advised to master excellent communication skills so that they ________.A) can make their employees more qualifiedB) can make their employees more sociableC) can make the best use of their employees D) can make the best use of their clients3. In an office environment, what will eventually influence employees' success?A) Written communication skills.B) Language competence and performance.C) The good relationship with their clients.D) The basic relationship with others around them. 4. How do many employers encourage good communication between staff members?A) By organizing social events. B) By raising the staff benefits.C) By trusting them implicitly.D) By offering them training programs.5. In many companies, a Head of Communication is hired to ________.A) improve the service qualityB) ensure the business continues to flowC) avoid any possible miscommunication D) promote the efficiency of communication不是我要搜的题？马上反馈1、C2、C3、D4、A5、C

In the U.S., we’ve created fridges that give you cold ice at the press of a button, but in Britain they typically serve their tap water warm.This tradition--if that’s what you want to call it--dates back to the 19th century. During that time, it was already commonplace for most American homes to have an ice box. Ice would be harvested in northern America or Canada and shipped across the Atlantic and sold at a high price in British department stores. Can you imagine heading to Macy’s to treat yourself to a block of ice?Putting ice in your drink started to become somewhat of a fashion(时尚)trend for the wealthy in Britain. Some would put a few cubes in their champagne and sip on their chilled drinks at high-class parties. But, like with any fashion trend, it eventually faded, mainly because the ice was just too expensive. And even once ice boxes began appearing in homes in Britain as well, Brits never took a liking to ice in their drinks.So, next time you travel overseas, don't feel offended(被冒犯) when your server gives you an eye roll when you ask for ice water.25. Who has written the text?A. A European B. An American C. A Canadian D. An Asian.26. Why do Europeans take their drinks at room temperature?A. Because they have no fridges. B Because they have warm taps.C. Because they are accustomed to it. D Because they can't afford ice.27. What can we infer about Europeans?A. They have ice boxes later than Americans.B. They don't know where to get ice blocks.C. Wealthy people like to have ice in their drinks.D. Wealthy people always follow what Americans do.28. What does the text mainly talk about?A. Why Americans like icy drinks while Europeans don’ t.B. When people overseas have icy drinks with their meals.C. Where people can entertain themselves with icy drinks.D How Europeans and Americans make different beverage.CMy favorite book, The Secret by Rhonda Byrne, talks about a formula called “SFF〞 which stands for “stopping finding faults〞. I used to be a critical person and tried to find faults. I guess I somehow inherited this character from my father. Actually, many good qualities of my father are worth admiring except this.My father is the person who constantly looks for mistakes in other people and he thinks no one is perfect in the world. His character created a negative atmosphere in my family. I was the same as my father, so I often felt angry, disappointed, depressed, and lonely in school.After I had read my favorite book I began to seek “good things〞 in other people. It has completely changed my life. Now I feel happier, I have more friends, I have more trust in people, and I realize everyone has their own strength! Another important lesson I got from this book is that I should always behave myself in a positive manner. Let’s admit that we sometimes complain about our situation. That’s not good. “Believe it or not, people don’t like to listen to negative opinions.〞One more valuable lesson I got from the book is that I should be a good listener. When I was younger, I only wanted people to pay whole attention to my words so that I could show them how important I was. I was very proud and would show off my achievements in school without considering others’ feeling. I had very few friends and most people considered me as an “arrogant〞 person. Now, I find it mush easier to make friends after making some changes!29. Why does the author like the book The Secret?A. Because he’s found the secret of success from it.B. Because the book uncovers the secrets of happiness.C. Because he’s learnt his father’s characters from it.D. Because it helps him change his attitude towards life.30. What do you know about the author’s father?A. He makes his son feel angry and disappointed.B. He likes finding faults with people around him.C. He seems a critical person but in fact easy-going.D. He can create a negative atmosphere when necessary.31. The underlined word “arrogant〞 probably means “______〞.A. self-important B. admirable C. troublesome D. cold-blooded32. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A. To persuade readers to be good listeners.B. To share his painful changing experience.C. To tell readers the influence of a book on him.D. To show the result of his father’s negative character.DWelcome to Inspire 21Our aim is to provide “Inspiring words for the 21st century〞.

As you plan for your trip, here are some tips on how to protect yourself. 36Fight against the mosquitoes in the hot spots.There are many mosquito-borne illnesses in tropical regions, which are traditionally vacation hot spots. Therefore, mosquito repellent〔驱蚊剂〕that contains DEET should be an essential item in your travel bag.37 .In lesser-developed countries there is less equipment for clean water and public health. If you can't avoid unhealthful water, make sure you bring along a tea or coffee—making pot that will boil water for you. You’d better buy a case or two of water and check that all bottle caps are sealed to assure the bottled water isn't just a refilled bottle of dirty tap water.Always protect your feet.It's best to wear slippers in the shower, but if you must be barefoot, put a towel down on the floor. 38 You should never walk barefoot in any area of a foreign country, including your hotel room.Be sure to eat safe fruits.39 They may have been washed in the same water, or wiped with the same rag used to clean work surfaces in kitchens. The best advice is to bring your own peeler〔削皮器〕so that you know that something clean has been applied to the fruit.Enjoy the smell of roadside stands, not the food.Unless the food is piping hot when served, it’s best to stay away from roadside stands, no matter how good the smell of the food might be. If you are concerned about whether a restaurant is clean, order the food to go. 40 .A. Don't trust the local waterB. Any fruit served fresh may be pollutedC. Look out for any water not served in a bottleD. The boxes may be cleaner than the plate or fork on the tableE. You should know how to keep yourself away from dirty fruitsF. They are necessary to avoid coming back with a major illness from your tripG. Parasites〔寄生虫〕can enter the skin of your feet and travel to different parts of the body
