阅读理解阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。 A The principles about applying for jobs have altered greatly lately. In the past, people preferred a hand-written application letter．However, nowadays it is becoming more and more common to apply for a job through the Internet．You can find information on the Internet about how to apply for jobs．Information can be found about how to fulfill your application letter, the clothes that you should wear and how to carry out the interview itself． The importance of body language is often mentioned，but doesn’t always get the attention it deserves．After all，before a word has even been spoken，your body language will have already given people their first impression of you．Additionally, your body language will also give out a lot more information．Based on your body language it can be seen if you are self-confident．It can also show if you are a busy or a quiet type and it helps give an impression of whether you are speaking truthfully or not．Body language can show how ent husiastic you are and if you are a nice person．someone who will take his work seriously, but also someone who has a sense of humor and can enjoy a joke from time to time．The members of the application committee will ask you questions，but your answers won’t only be oral．The committee will not only pay attention to what you say, but also to how you say it! Body language will determine first if it ‘clicks’，and sometimes all it takes is just a few seconds．Everybody uses body language，but it takes place mostly at a subconscious（下意识的） level．Using body language appropriately, you can definitely increase your chances of getting a job． 1.What kind of people is the text mainly meant for? A. Interviewers B. Job-hunting people C. Employers D. Lay-off workers 2.We can learn from the first paragraph that ． A. hand-written letters are not used in finding a job B. the more expensive clothes interviewees wear, the better C. body language is more important than spoken words D. Internet is of significance in applying for a job 3.Using body language well in a job interview will probably . A. get rid of the interviewers’prejudice B. determine what position one will get C. increase the possibility to get the wanted job D. help one remove nervousness 4.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A. Those using body language are usually confident. B. Body language is often used on purpose in job hunting. C. Body language is a mirror to reflect one’s personality. D. People enjoying jokes are preferred in a job interview. B One of our biggest fears nowadays is that our kids might some day get lost in a “sea of technology” rather than experiencing the natural world. Fear-producing TV and computer games are leading to serious disconnect between kids and the great outdoors, which will change the wild places of the world, its creatures and human health for the worse, unless adults get working on child’s play. Each of us has a place in nature we go sometimes, even if it was torn down. We cannot be the last generation to have that place. At this rate, kids who miss the sense of wonder outdoors will not grow up to be protectors of natural landscapes. “If the decline in park use continues across North America, who will defend parks against encroachment（蚕食）?” asks Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the woods. Without having a nature experience, kids can turn out just fine, but they are missing out a huge enrichment to their lives. Experts predict modern kids will have poorer health than their parents—and they say a lack of outside play is surely part o f it; research suggests that kids do better academically in schools with a nature component and that play in nature fosters（培养）leadership by the smartest, not by the toughest, Even a tiny outdoor experience can create wonder in a child. The three-year-old turning over his first rock realizes he is not alone in the world. A clump of trees on the roadside can be the whole universe in his eyes. We really need to value that more. Kids are not to blame. They are over-protected and frightened. It is dangerous out there from time to time but repetitive stress from computers is replacing breaking an arm as a childhood rite（仪式）of passage. Everyone, from developers, to schools and outdoorsy citizens, should help regain for our kids some of the freedom and joy of exploring, taking friendship in fields and woods that strengthen love, respect and need for the landscapes. As parents, we should devote some of our energy to taking our kids into nature. This could yet be our greatest cause. 5. According to the passage, children without experiencing nature will . A. keep a high sense of wonder B. be over-protected by their parents C. be less healthy both physically and mentally D. change wild places and creatures for the better 6. According to the author, children’s breaking an arm is_______. A. the fault on the part of their parents B. the natural experience in their growing up C. the result of their own carelessness in play D. the effect of their repetitive stress from computers 7.In writing this passage, the author mainly intends to . A. blame children for getting lost in computer games B. encourage children to protect parks from encroachment C. show his concern about children’s lack of experience in nature D. inspire children to keep the sense of wonder about things around C I am trying to muster (鼓起) the courage to toss_away my mobile phone to enjoy a more peaceful and ring-free life. Can you imagine not having your mobile phone? In our high-tech, in-a-hurry age, a cell-free life is a hard concept to swallow. Our mobile phones can now access the Internet, and many people feel the need to express their every thought on their blog pages. If I gave up my cell-phone, people would think I was mad. I wish I had the strength to toss away my technology. I have an office phone, a home phone, an e-mail and if people want to contact me, they can. If I'm out, people can leave a message. Do they really need to find me 24/7?However, I'm a bit like Frodo in the movie Lord of the Rings. The power of the ring is too strong and I can't let it go. Mobile phones have become necessary tools in our busy life. For most people, they hold all contacts and many of us don't write up address books any more. The latest phones carry our music, pictures, movies and everything else. We feel lost without this device and when we do misplace it, we feel cut off from our fellow. "Where have you been?" said a friend, who saw me a week after I lost my cell-phone, "I tried calling you, but you disappeared. You disappeared off the face of the Earth." See, when you don't have a mobile phone, you don't exist. I'm not really going to toss my mobile phone away, in fact. We humans are such social animals and mobile phones serve us well. So in 2009, I've decided not to serve my mobile phone. Like all machines, I can always turn it off. 8. What does the underlined phrase "toss away" mean? A. give away B. get away C. break away D. throw away 9. The writer mentions Frodo to_______. A. show it is difficult to get rid of the mobile phone B. show how much he likes Frodo C. suggest a cell-free life is what he wants D. introduce a film ch aracter to us 10. What do we know about mobile phones in the 4th paragraph? A. Mobile phones can do anything for us. B. Mobile phones have become very important in our life. C. We could not live without mobile phones. D. We would be cut off by our fellow without mobile phones. 11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. The writer is not really going to toss his mobile phone away. B. When you don't have a mobile phone,you don't exist. C. The writer decides not to serve his mobile phone. D. We humans can control ourselves and machines. D The world is changing so fast that English, perhaps the most worldly of languages, is struggling to keep up. Learners in the future are likely to be much younger. Young children are often said to be better at language learning than older learners but they also have special chal lenges. Young children don’t usually have the kind of instrumental motivation and determination for learning English that older learners often have. English lessons must therefore be fun and rewarding. The reasons why people learn English are also changing. Globalization is bringing together more people than ever who speak different languages and who are turning to English as the means of communication. The English learners of the future may be less worried about sounding exactly like a native speaker and more concerned about how to use English effectively in cross-cultural communication. We may be hearing more non-native speakers in dialogues and a wider range of the “New Englishes” now used around the world. Technology will allow English to come to you, rather than you having to go to a special place to learn English. Learning English has always involved both pain an d pleasure, private effort and social activity. Traditional learning provided take-it or leave-it mixes of these as well as of content but in future learners will be able to choose a plan which suits their cultural and psychological dispositions(性情), or their particular needs at that moment. They, rather than their teachers, will decide how, what and when they will learn. Above all, learning English is about communication and an important benefit of learning English is being able to exchange views and make friends with people all over the world. Despite the growing independence of learners, trusted institutions and brand names will remain important. 12. Compared to older learners, young English learners . A. are more active in learningB. are more hard-working in learningC. have more difficulties in learningD. have less lasting determination in learning13. What can we learn about the future English language? A . British English will be more popular. B. American English will be more popular. C. Most people w ill speak standard English. D. Many different kinds of Englishes will appear. 14. What can we learn from the passage? A. Future English lessons will be more interesting. B. Old people won’t have to learn English in the future. C. People will pay more attention to English pronunciation. D. Teachers will play a more important role in one’s English learning. 15. What can be inferred from the passage? A. Learning English means no pain in the future. B. English training schools will not be popular with young people in the future. C. English learners will become less independent in the future. D. More attention will be paid to personal needs in English learning in the future.

Kids of any age love to read fairy tales because the storyline never limits the possibility that anything could happen. But are the most magical moments from some of our favorite stories actually possible? Basic physical principles and recent scientific research suggest that what readers might mistake for fantasies and exaggeration could be rooted in reality.So suspend your imagination for a moment, and look, as a hard-core scientist might, at the following fairy tale—The Arabian Nights. One of the most exciting objects found in fairy tales is the flying carpet. In tales from a wide variety of cultures, including The Arabian Nights, these tapestries (挂毯) take flight to carry people vast distances. Flying carpets are clearly impossible, right?Three scientists recently published a paper in the journal Physical Review Letters showing that there are conditions under which a carpet could fly. They used the basic laws of physics to show that a small, thin carpet could fly if the air were vibrating at the right frequency, much like how a piece of tissue paper floats softly to the ground when it is dropped. Their calculations showed that small waves of air in repeated fast pulses could steer a carpet at a speed of around one foot per second.Don't expect to see Aladdin flying by anytime soon, but the scientists write that all of their conditions are within the realm of possibilities in nature and in technology. Making a heavy carpet fly would, of course, require a much more powerful engine, and our calculations suggest it will remain in the magical, mystical, and virtual realm as it has existed for millennia (千年).68. What does the example of flying carpets show?A) Many magical moments could be realized in realityB) A small, thin carpet could fly like a piece of paper.C) There are possibilities that a carpet can fly in reality.D) Some magical things still remain mystical and unreal as before.

The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator. Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding.

The Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, is perhaps the most popular set of novels of the modern era. With seven books and many successful films to its name, the series has gathered about 15 billion dollars in sales. How did the series become so popular? The reason can be broken down into several areas.The first book in the series was rejected 12 times before it was picked up by Bloomsbury—a small publisher in England. So receiving this contract was Rowling's first step to success. However, getting a book contract does not ensure the success of a book. The story was soon loved by children and adults alike. In light of this, Bloomsbury Publishing published a second version of the books with “adult” (less colorful and more boring) book covers. This made it easier for a full range of ages to enjoy the series.Another factor that worked like a charm was that the publisher and Rowling herself, through the books, conducted midnight releases, promotions, and pre-ordering more readers. Customers who feared that their local bookstore would run out of copies responded by pre-ordering over 700,000 copies before the July 8, 2000 release.What does the underlined word “releases” (Para. 3) mean?A. The activity that frees or expresses energy or emotion.B. The announcement about the book’s publishing information.C. The sales of books that is available only at midnight.

Americans experience more food recalls (召回) today than they did five years ago, especially when it comes to meat and poultry (家禽). Meat and poultry recalls increased by two-thirds from 2013 to 2018, while food recalls overall went up 10%, according to the report recently published by the U.S. Public Interest Research Group.Meanwhile, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates (估计) 48 million people get sick, 128,000 are hospitalized and 3,000 die from food-borne disease each year in the U.S. "We are looking for the farm-to-fork preventative solutions," said Adam Garber, the research group's consumer watchdog. "By doing that, we can protect people's health."Over the five-year period, poultry posted the most recalls (168), followed by beef (137) and pork (128). The report shows the most serious meat recalls are on the rise. Among meat and poultry, the number of Class I recalls has increased by 83%, nearly doubling.
