17、ries take me straight back to the days when I worked for John W. Rogers.While in college, I worked as an intern (实习生) at Ariel Investments. As the youngest girl of six kids from a single mom, I had very little knowledge of the business world. When I graduated, I decided to return to the company to i
18、mprove myself.At the age of 22, my perspective was greatly influenced by lunching with the companys founder and then-president, John W. Rogers. He told me that I would often find myself in the company of rich and successful people with big titles, lots of degrees and lots of experience. And yet, my
19、ideas could still be as good or even better, he said. This early advice became the guiding force that has helped me throughout my entire career. When I was starting out, I thought my inexperience was holding me back, but John said that it was a good thing. He told me that being inexperienced means t
20、hat you have a fresh point of view.As my tutor, John encouraged me to be brave. As my boss, he took some giant leaps of faith to support me. Because of our first lunch and the years of support that followed, I never thought twice about speaking up, raising my hand or taking a seat at the table. Stay
21、ing in the background was never a choice. But Johns advice came with one important warning. I needed to control my attitude. Its one thing to be firm but quite another to be rude. Similarly, there is a fine line between confidence and overconfidence. With that in mind, I have had to learn to balance
22、 the way I act around others. As someone once told me, “the goal is to be non-threatened and non-threatening at the same time.”24. What can we learn about the author from the text? A. She went to Ariel Investments after graduation for practice. B. She made her voice heard with encouragement from her
23、 boss. C. Her tough childhood had a negative effect on her work. D. Her performance during internship was highly praised in public.25. Due to John W. Rogers advice, the author_.

25、oal.27. Who would probably benefit most from this article? A. Company bosses.B. Experienced teammates. C. Business consultants(顾问).D. Those new to a job.CWhy should mankind explore space? Why should money, time and effort be spent exploring and researching something with so few clear benefits? Why s
26、hould resources be spent on space rather than on conditions and people on Earth? These are questions that, understandably, are very often asked.Perhaps the best answer lies in our genetic makeup as human beings. What drove our ancestors(祖先) to move from the trees into the plains, and on into all pos
27、sible areas and environments? The wider the spread of a species, the better its chance of survival. Perhaps the best reason for exploring space is this genetic tendency to expand wherever possible.Nearly every successful civilization(文明) has explored, because by doing so, any dangers in surrounding
28、areas can be identified and prepared for. Without knowledge, we may be completely destroyed by the danger. With knowledge, we can reduce its effects.Exploration also allows minerals and other potential resources to be found. Even if we have no immediate need of them, they will perhaps be useful late
29、r. Resources may be more than physical possessions. Knowledge or techniques have been acquired through exploration. The techniques may have medical applications which can improve the length or quality of our lives. We have already benefited from other spin-offs of space exploration. The technical im
30、provements in earthquake prediction, in satellites for weather forecasting and in communications systems have long been in effect.While many resources are spent on what seems a small return, the exploration of space allows creative, brave and intelligent members of our species to focus on what may s
31、erve to save us. While space may hold many wonders and explanations of how the universe was formed or how it works, it also holds dangers. The danger exists, but knowledge can help human beings to survive. Without the ability to reach out across space, the chance to save ourselves might not exist.28
32、. What might be the key to those questions mentioned in Paragraph 1? A. Humans nature.B. Knowledge. C. Civilization.D. Potential dangers.29. Which of the following can best replace “spin-offs” underlined in paragraph 4? A. Applications.B. Shortcomings. C. Advantages.D. Effects.30. In which situation
33、 may this text be applied properly? A. A private conversation.B. A class presentation. C. A cartoon picture.D. A fashion review.31. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. How Knowledge Benefits UsB. What Humans Spread for C. Why to Explore SpaceD. How Humans Save OurselvesDDear Mummy,This las
34、t trip to India with you has brought home to me a few hard factsfacts that I wanted to avoid seeing for some time. As you well know, you and I have had a few arguments and several days of tension during the trip. I must admit sometimes I really do not know how to communicate to you what I really fee
35、l. Words seem to fail on both sides. Thats why I am writing this letter. Perhaps it will be a bit easier. _As I approach my seventeenth year, I suddenly ask myself where I belong. I know this is the usual teenage identity crisis. You came to this country when you were slightly older than I am and ma
36、rried my father. You admired the American lifestyle and tried to be an American as much as you could. I am the daughter of you, a mother who is Indian, and a father who is American. Of course, I am American. Except for a few trips to India I have little to do with India outwardly. But I feel how muc
37、h you would like me to become Indian sometimes. I cannot explain it with examples. But I feel it in my bones. The India that you never quite shake off comes back to you now and you want to see your daughter live it, at least partly._Yes, Mummy, I know I am wrapped up in many superficial (肤浅的) things
38、, things my friends indulge in (沉迷于) and I can understand your need to protect me. But I am part of them and in order for me to be accepted by my friends, sometimes I need to do things which do not always please me either. I need their approval and I want to be like them sometimes. But your good int
39、entions to teach me those good Indian things then come into disagreement. Although I dislike the superficiality of my friends, I cannot move back to your culture just because it is better for you or more ancient or deep. _My dearest mother, I cannot be protected by you. Forgive me if I remind you of
40、 something you related to me many times. You could not be protected by my grandparents (your parents) when you decided to embrace this culture along with my father. Nor can you protect me despite the fact that we are not separated by physical distance. Perhaps we are separated by something else and
41、I suspect that is India.I have never written a letter like this before in my short life. I feel good about writing this and would like to hear what you have to say. Ma, perhaps you and I can still be friends in a way that you and your mother could not be. Lets try. I love you.Yous, Rita32. What can

Independent and communicative.35. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Rita expects more protection from her mother.B. R
44、ita expects more Indian cultural influence from her mother.C. Rita expects more communication and respect from her mother.D. Rita expects more attention and care from her mother.第三部分：七选五 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Everybody knows the importance of drinking enough

Then, as the years get higher, you get drier._37_ It helps you lose weight, according to a study from the Univer
46、sity of Birmingham.The researchers found that drinking 500 ml of water thirty minutes before a meal helped participants lose 10 more pounds than those who did not._38_ All participants were advised to improve their diet and physical activity levels. 84 overweight adults were involved.

70、to express my concern about the sports activities and facilities on campus.As we all know, taking part in sport can build up our bodies and make us healthier However, some sports activities in our PE class have become less popular. Some of the students become unwilling to attend PE classes. Besides,
71、 some sports facilities have been overused, which have brought inconvenience to the students and may lead to injures by accident. Whats worse, PE teachers may carry out the same sports repeatedly, regardless of the students physical differences. Therefore, I suggest less popular activities should be
72、 replaced by new ones, which are not only good for our health but also full of fun. Meanwhile, old or unsafe facilities should be replaced by new ones of good quality. In addition, PE teachers should make efforts to organize various kinds of sports activities.Thank you for your time and consideration!Yours sincerelyWang Ning
