His family were very poor farmers, and there was never enough to eat. Frank decided he did not want to be farmer. He took a short business cours
25、e, and went to work as a salesman in a large city.Woolworth realized he had a natural skill for showing goods to attract peoples interest, but he soon learned something more important. One day his boss told him to sell some odds and ends (小商品 ) for as much as he could get. Frank put all these things
26、 on one table with a sign which said FIVE CENTS EACH. People fought and pushed to buy the things and the table was soon cleared.Soon afterwards, Woolworth opened his own store, selling goods at five and ten cents. But he had another lesson to learn before he became successful. That is, if you want t
27、o make money by selling low-price goods, you have to buy them in large quantities directly form the factories. Once, for example, Woolworth went to Germany and placed an order for knives. The order was so large that the factory had to keep running 24 hours a day for a whole year. In this way, the pr
28、ice of the knives was cut down by half.By 1919, Woolworth had over 1000 stores in the US and Canada, and opened his first store in London. He made many millions and his name became famous throughout the world. He always run his business according to strict rules, of which the most important was: “ T

33、s orders if they want to make more money.D. stores should do their best to meet the customers needs if they want to be successful. B Ten years ago I used to be very fit (健康的). I rode a bike to work and I got a lot of exercise at weekends. I used to play tennis a lot and go for long walks. In those d
34、ays I didnt earn very much. I had a job in an office. It wasnt a very good job but I had a lot of time to do the things I enjoyed doing. Then, about eight years ago, I got a much better job. The pay was better, but the hours were a lot longer. I bought a car and drove to work every day. I began to t
35、ake people out to lunch. And I began to put on weight, too. I stopped playing tennis and going for long walks at weekends because I just didnt have any time for things like that any more. Theres a lot of stress in my job. Perhaps thats why I started drinking more than I used to. For example, I used
36、to have only half a glass of whisky when I got home, but then I started filling my glass to the top, and instead of having one glass, I would have several. I started smoking a lot, too. I never used to smoke at all.Two months ago I had a heart attack. At first I just couldnt believe it. Luckily it w
37、asnt very serious. The doctor advised me to stop smoking and to eat less. He also advised me to work less and get more exercise. But I just havent any time! My job takes everything out of me! Sometimes I wonder if I should get another job. Perhaps I could do something like I used to do. But if I do
38、that, I wont earn as much. I have a family to support. I have to think of them, too. I just dont know what I should do. What do you think? 61.The author used to go to work _ A. on foot B. by bike C. by car D. by train 62. Compared with ten years ago, what is worse for the author now? dA. His job. B.
39、 His pay. C. His means of transport. D. His health.63. According to the passage, when the author got the better job, which of the following is NOT true? A. He got higher pay. B.

40、ad a heart attack, the doctor advised him _.A. not to work any longer B. to take a long vacation abroadC. to work less and take exercise D. not to eat out any more65. What can we learn about the author? A. The author is not sure what he should do now. B. The author has taken the doctors advice.C. Th
41、e author has got another new job. D. The author feels much better now.CWhile income worry is a rather common problem of the aged, loneliness is another problem that aged parents may face. Of all the reasons that explain their loneliness, a large geographical distance between parents and their childr
42、en is the major one. This phenomenon(现象) is commonly known as Empty Nest Syndrome”（空巢综合症）In order to find better chances outside their countries, many young people have gone abroad, leaving their parents behind with no clear idea of when they will return home. Their parents spend countless lonely da
43、ys and nights, taking care of themselves, in the hope that someday their children will come back to stay with them. The fact that most of these young people have gone to Europeanized or Americanized societies makes it unlikely that they will hold as tightly to the value of duty as they would have if
44、 they had not left their countries. Whatever the case, it has been noted that the values they hold do not necessarily match what they actually do. This geographical and cultural distance also prevents the grown-up children from providing response in time for their aged parents living by themselves.T
45、he situation in which grown-up children live far away from their aged parents has been described as distant parent phenomenon, which is common both in developed countries and in developing countries. Our society has not yet been well prepared for Empty Nest Syndrome.66. According to the passage, the
46、 loneliness of aged parents is mainly caused by _.A. their earlier experience of living aloneB. the poor living conditions in their native countriesC. the common worry that they have not saved much moneyD. the distance between where parents live and where their children live67. Many young people hav
47、e gone abroad, leaving their aged parents behind, to _.A. realize their dreams in foreign countriesB. seek a better place for their aged parentsC. live in the countries with more moneyD. continue their studies abroad68. If young people go abroad, _.A. they do not hold to the value of duty at allB. t
48、hey can give some help to their parents back homeC. they cannot do what they should for their parentsD. they believe what they actually do is right69. From the last paragraph, we can infer that _.A. the situations in the developed and developing countries are differentB. Empty Nest Syndrome has arri
49、ved unexpectedly in our societyC. children will become independent as soon as they go abroadD. the aged parents are not fully prepared for Empty Nest Syndrome70. The society discussed in the passage is most probably _.A. France B. America C. China D. BritainDEducation is not an end , but a means to
50、an end. In other words, we do not educate children only for the purpose of educating them. Our purpose is to fit them for life. In many modern countries it has for some time been fashionable（流行的）to think that by free education for all whether rich or poor, clever or stupid - one can solve all the pr
51、oblems of society and build a perfect nation. But we can already see that free education for all is not enough: we find in such countries a far larger number of people with university degrees（学位）they refuse to do what they think low work; and in fact, work with hands is thought to be dirty and shame
52、ful in such countries. But we have only to think a moment to understand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is far more important than that of a professor: we can live without education, but we die if we have no food. If no one cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our house
53、s, we should get terrible diseases in our townsIn fact, when we say that all of us must be educated to fit us for life, it means that we must be educated in such a way that, firstly, each of us can do whatever work suited to his brains and ability, and secondly, that we can realize that all jobs are
54、 necessary to society, and that it is very bad to be unwilling to do ones work. Only such a type of education can be considered valuable to society.71. In the writers opinion,_A. free education for all probably leads to a perfect world B. all the social problems cant be solved by education C. educat
55、ion can solve most of the worlds problems D. free education will help to solve all the problems of society72. The writer wants to prove that _ A. a farmer is more important than a professor B. our society needs free education for all C. our society needs all kinds of jobs D. work with hands is the m
56、ost important73. The purpose of education is to _ A. build a perfect world B. let everyone receive education C. choose officials for the country D. prepare children mainly for their future work74. What is mainly discussed in the text? A. The type of education B. The value of education C. The means o
57、f education D. The system of education75. What can we learn from the text?A. Work with hands is thought to be shameful in some modern countries.B. In all modern countries, free education has been fashionable.C. A perfect nation can solve all the problems of society.D. A professor is far more importa
