9、rns to Yellowstone.第二部分 阅读理解（共三节，满分70分）第一节 （共15小题；每小题2 分，满分30分）AOdland remembers like it was yesterday working in an expensive French restaurant in Denver. The ice cream he was serving fell onto the white dress of a rich and important woman. Thirty years have passed, but Odland can not get the memor
10、y out of his mind, nor the womans kind reaction. She was shocked, regained calmness and, in a kind voice, told the young Odland. “It is OK. It wasnt your fault.” When she left the restaurant, she also left the future Fortune 500 CEO with a life lesson: You can tell a lot about a person by the way he
11、 or she treats the waiter.Odland isnt the only CEO to have made this discovery. Instead, it seems to be one of those few laws of the land that every CEO learns on the way up. Its hard to get a dozen CEOs to agree about anything, but most agree with the Waiter Rule. They say how others treat the CEO
12、says nothing. But how others treat the waiter is like a window into the soul.Watch out for anyone who pulls out the power card to say something like, “I could buy this place and fire you,” or “I know the owner and I could have you fired.” Those who say such things have shown more about their charact
13、er than about their wealth and power.The CEO who came up with it, or at least first wrote it down, is Raytheon CEO Bill Swanson. He wrote a best-selling book called Swansons Unwritten Rules of Management. “A person who is nice to you but rude to the waiter, or to others, is not a nice person,”Swanso
14、n says. “I will never offer a job to the person who is sweet to the boss but turns rude to someone cleaning the tables.” 21.

16、ok D. the Waiter Rule BA cafe owner has defended her decision to pen a Facebook post (an Internet message to be discussed) stating “No, we are not child-friendly,” saying it breaks her heart when children damage her possessions. On Monday, the Little French Cafe in Newcastle, Australia, posted an an
17、nouncement on their Facebook page: “Are we child-friendly? If you are looking for a cafe with a children s menu, a play area, lounges for your children to jump on, vast space for your baby carriages, an area for your children to run around, and annoy other customers, while you are unaware of themthe
18、n the short answer is No, we are not child-friendly. However, if you would like to bring your children here and they are happy to sit at a table with you and behave properly, please come in. Otherwise, there are plenty of places that are specifically designed to entertain your children.” The post ha
19、s since been deleted. Some Facebook users called the post “arrogant (傲慢的)” and an “attack on parents,” The Newcastle Herald reports. The cafe owner responded with this statement: “I built the cafe myself. It has my blood, sweat and plenty of tears in it.” The post came about after the cafe owner was
20、 asked by a customer, who had left a one-star review on the cafes business page, about whether the cafe was child-friendly. Ms Kotz told .au she wrote the bad review because she felt staff reacted negatively towards children at the cafe.The cafe owner said it broke a piece of her heart every time wh
21、en she was watching children emptying salt and pepper shakers into her fireplaces, parents changing nappies (尿布) on her lounges, or kids throwing their own food onto her carpet.Although the cafes policy has attracted a lot of criticism, most people who commented on the Little French Cafes Facebook p
22、age stood by the owner. One woman named Lesley wrote, “I dont think there was anything wrong with what you said by any means.

25、book users27. What did Lesley think of the cafe owners action?A. It was slightly unfair.B. It was very misleading.C. It was highly controversial.D. It was quite understandable. CThe saying “a penny for your thoughts” is an English idiom simply asking people to volunteer their opinions on an issue be
26、ing discussed. In modern usage, it is often stated as an indirect way of asking what someone is thinking about.This phrase is basically a proposal (提议), and the speaker is offering to pay to hear the listeners thoughts. It is an idiom, of course, and not meant literally (字面上的) so no real payment gen
27、erally takes place.When the saying originated, a penny was worth a lot more than it is in the 21st century. Therefore, “a penny for your thoughts” likely indicated the thoughts were more valuable to those asking the listener for them than they are by todays standards. This loss of value can be used
28、ironically(讽刺地), however, through tone(语气) of voice; it can be used to indicate that someones idea is bad or worth a penny in modern value.The phrase is generally credited to a man by the name of John Heywood, who was born sometime just before the 16th century. During his life, he was a writer who p
29、enned many plays and a book in 1546, later known as The Proverbs of John Heywood. It is likely Heywood did not actually come up with the phrase “a penny for your thoughts”. Rather, he was simply the first person to have set the phrase down in written form. The actual origins of the term are unknown,
30、 and since his book was simply a collection of common idioms and expressions, it was probably familiar to people in the mid 1500s.Another phrase similar to “a penny for your thoughts” is offering “your two cents” after making a statement. Someone might give his or her opinion and then say, “thats my
31、 two cents,” to indicate the value of his or her idea. While, much like a penny, “two cents” is relatively low in value now, it would have been more valuable at one time and the expression is used in much the same way.28. When someone says “a penny for your thoughts”, he or she _.A. wants to ask you
32、 for adviceB. considers your thoughts uniqueC. is curious about whats on your mindD. will pay for what youre thinking about29. The modern meaning of “a penny for your thoughts” _.A. is more closely connected to the value of the pennyB. can differ greatly according to a speakers mannerC. can confuse
33、the listener easilyD. is more popularly accepted30. In what way is Heywood related to the phrase “a penny for your thoughts”?A. He came up with it while he was writing.B. He helps to explain the origins of it.C. He contributed to the wide use of it.D. He was the first person to use it.31. What do we
34、 know about the phrase “your two cents”?A. It is usually used at the end of a statement.B. It comes from “a penny for your thoughts”.C. It has witnessed some changes since the 16th century.D. It is more familiar to people than “a penny for your thoughts”. D As We Speak by Peter Meyers, Shann NixThe

68、ife. Lets begin with personal relationships. Lack of honesty here leads to all kinds of problems. For example, if you lie to your friends, you would have to work hard to win back their trust. And if you cant depend on them to tell you the truth, then your friendship is unlikely to last.Honesty at work is just as important. A person who doesnt value honesty is a bad colleague. Most people work in teams and if you cannot trust a colleague, the team will break down. In sum, it is my belief that honesty in our lives is very important. Without it, our lives would become extremely unpleasant.
