Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phr
31、ase that best fits the context.Surprising new research suggests it can actually be good to feel bad at work, and that feeling good in the workplace can lead to negative outcomes. The study of emotions in the workplace, edited by University of Liverpool researchers Drs. Dirk Lindebaum and Peter Jorda
32、n, is the 51 of a Special Issue of the journal Human Relations.They found that the 52 held assumption that positivity in the workplace produces positive outcomes, while negative emotions lead to negative outcomes, may be in need for 53 . This is partly due to this assumption 54 to take into account
33、the differences in work contexts which effect outcomes.For instance, anger does not always lead to negative outcomes and can be used as a force for good through acting upon injustices. In some 55 , anger can be considered a force for good if motivated by perceived violations(违背) of moral standards.
34、An employee, for example, could express anger constructively after a manager has treated a fellow worker 56 . In such cases, anger can be useful to 57 these acts of injustice from repeating themselves in the future.Likewise, being too positive in the workplace, 58 resulting in greater well-being and
35、 greater productivity, can lead to self-satisfaction and superficiality(肤浅). One article within the issue also finds that, within team situations, negativity can have a good effect, leading to less 59 and therefore greater discussion among workers which 60 team effectiveness.An interesting contradic
36、tion(矛盾) is identified in another study of the special issue. Here, people gain 61 from doing “good” in the context of helplines by providing support to people in times of emotional distress. 62 , they are negatively affected by their line of work due to people trying to avoid them in social situati

41、ch passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read(A)The term “resume” means a document describing ones educational qual
42、itifications and professional experience. However guidelines for preparing a global resume are constantly changing. The best advice is to find out what is appropriate regarding the company culture, the country culture, and the culture of the person making the hiring decision. The following list is a
43、 good place to start.* In many countries, it is standard procedure to attach a photo or have your photo printed on your resume. Do not attach a photograph to your resume if you are sending it to the United States, though.* Educational requirements differ from country to country. In most case of “cro
44、ss-border” job hunting, just stating the title of your degree will not be enough. Provide the reader with details about your studies and any related experience.* Pay attention to the resume format(格式) you use-chronological(时间的) or revers-chronological order. If you find no specific guidelines, the g
45、eneral preference is for the revers-chronological format,which means listing your current or most recent experience first.* The level of computer technology and accessibility to the Internet varies from country to country. Even if a company or individual lists an e-mail address, there is no guarante
46、e that they will actually receive your email. Send a paper copy of your resume , as well as the emailed copy, just to make sure that it is received.* If you are writing your resume in English, find out if the receiver uses British English or American English because there are variations between the
47、two versions.* Although English is widely accepted today as being the universal language of business, most multinational companies will expect you to speak the language of one of the countries in which they do business, in addition to English. Have your resume prepared in both languages, and be read
48、y for your interview to be conducted in both languages. Most companies will want to see and hear proof of your language skills.* Be aware that paper sizes are different countries. The United States standard is 81/2 by 11 inches, while the European A4 standard is 21 by 29.7 centimeters.When you send
49、your resume by email, reformat it to the receivers standard. Otherwise, when it is printed out,half of your material may be missing. 66. The passage is most probably intended for _ . A. Job hunters that seek careers abroad B. Companies that do international business C. People that are employed by co
50、mpanies overseas D. Graduates that can speak over one foreign language67. Which of the following is always advisable when a global resume is prepared according to the passage ? A. Write it in American English. B. Prepare it in at least three languages C. Attach or print your photo on it. D. Send bot

54、According to the timetable, all passengers should _. A. Buy return tickets B. Buy their tickets on the bus C. Buy the tickets online D. Buy their tickets in advance (C)Researchers are reporting the first treatment to speed recovery from severe brain injuries caused by falls and car crashes: a cheap
55、flu medicine-amantadine, whose side benefits were discovered by accident decades ago.Severely injured patients in the United States, Denmark and Germany who were given amantadine got better faster than those who received another medicine. After four weeks, more people in the flu drug group could giv
56、e reliable yes-and-no answers, follow commands or use a spoon or hairbrush-things that none of them could do at the start. Far fewer patients who got amantadine remained in a vegetative state, 17 percent versus 32 percent.“This drug moved the needle in terms of speeding patient recovery, and thats n
57、ot been shown before,” said neuropsychologist(神经心理学家) Joseph Giacino of Bostons Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital, co-leader of study. He added:“It really does provide hope for a population that is viewed in many places as hopeless.”Many doctors began using amantadine for brain injures years ago, bu
58、t until now theres never been a big study to show that it works. The results of the federally(联邦地) funded study appear in Thursdays New England Journal of Medicine.A neuropsychologist(神经心理学家) who wasnt involved in the research called it an important step. But many questions remain, including whether
59、 people less severely injured would benefit, and whether amantadine actually improves patients long-term outcome or just speeds up their recovery.Each year, an estimated 1.7 million American suffer a brain injury. With no proven treatment to rely on, doctors have used a variety of medicines approved
60、 for other disease in the hopes that they would help brain injury patients. Those decisions are based on “guesses and logic rather than data” said Dr. John Whyte, of the Moss Rehabilitation Research Institute in suburban Philadelphia. He led the study along with Giacino.Amantadine, an inexpensive me
61、dicine, was approved for the flu in the mid-1960s. The first hint that it might have other uses came a few years later when it appeared to improve Parkinsons symptoms in nursing home patients. It was found to have an effect on the brains doparmine system(多巴胺系统), whose function include movement and a
62、lertness, and it was later approved for Parkinsons.Its now commonly used for brain injuries, and the researchers felt it was important to find out “whether were treating patients with a useful drug, a harmful drug or a useless drug,” Whyte said.74. According to Paragraph 1, the patients in a vegetat
63、ive state may be those who _. A. Can follow simple orders B. Recover faster than expected C. Cant breathe on their own D. Show no sign of brain activities 75. According to the passage, Amantadine is a medicine that _. A. Is useful for flu only B. Is aimed to improve memory C. Speeds up brain injury
64、recovery D. Benefits patients brain injuries in the long run 76. The aim of the study led by Giacino and Whyte is to _. A. Get enough fund from the federal government B. Prove the effect of Amantadine on brain injuries C. Publish its results in New England Journal of Medicine D. Provide hope for pat
65、ients considered hopeless in the past77. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage ? A. Old Drug,Proven Side Benefit B. Medical Study, New Discovery C. Severe Brain Injury, Quick Recovery D. Different Treatment, Obvious EffectSection CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then
66、answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words. Defenders of the French language are angered by plans to introduce courses taught in English at public universities, arguing that France must protect itself against the risk of losing its cultural identity. The French Parl
67、iament recently started to debate the issue as part of a bill on a broader reform of higher education, but all attention has focused on an article that would lift a 19-year ban on English as a teaching language at public universities. The French government backs the change, which it says would help
68、to attract foreign students and help French graduates compete in a global economy as the country struggles to regain competitiveness. More French students fearing poor job prospects at home, where youth unemployment is nearly 25 percent, are studying and working abroad. One of their destinations is
69、London, which now has become the sixth largest French population in the world. However, opponents of the law, including professors, lawmakers and the French language supervision body Academic France, say the community of other French-speaking peoples must be defended and that the change would be a b
70、etrayal of other French-speaking nations.If France gives other French-speaking countries the wrong signal by leading an assault against the language, that would be a very, very regrettable thing indeed, said Claude Hagege, a language scientist. France has long defended its culture at home and abroad
71、. In 1994, the so-called Toubon Law made the use of French mandatory in all TV broadcasts, meaning all foreign-language programs are dubbed, while radio stations must play at least 40 percent of French music for most of the day. Business leaders criticize Frances low ranking for English proficiency(
72、熟练度） - it placed 23rd in a 2012 global ranking published by education company Education First - even though the use of English has grown, notably in academic circles. Higher Education Minister Genevieve Fioraso said offering English would increase the appeal of French universities at a time when the
73、y are falling further behind in international rankings. In a 2011-2012 survey by Britains Times newspaper, the highest-ranked French university is in 59th position. Private business schools where English is taught rank higher.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN
