25、etter. Ill try to answer some of the questions that are commonly asked.Where did I get the idea for Stuart Little and Charlottes Web? Well, many years ago I went to bed one night in a railway sleeping car, and during the night I dreamed about a tiny boy who acted rather like a mouse. Thats how the s
26、tory of Stuart Little got started.As for Charlottes Web, one day I felt sorry for the pig in the barn （谷仓） because, like most pigs, he was doomed （注定的） to die. So I started thinking of ways to save a pigs life. I had been watching a big grey spider at her work and was impressed by how clever she was
27、 at weaving （织）. Gradually, I worked the spider into the story, you know, a story of friendship and salvation （拯救） on a farm.Sometimes Im asked how old I was when I started to write, and what made me want to write. I started early - as soon as I could spell. In fact, I cant remember any time in my l
28、ife when I wasnt busy writing. I dont know what caused me to do it, or why I enjoyed it, but I think children often find pleasure and satisfaction in trying to set their thoughts down on paper, either in words or in pictures. I was not good at drawing, so I used words instead. As I grew older, I fou
29、nd that writing can be a way of earning a living.Are my stories true, you ask? No, they are imaginary stories, containing fantastic characters and events.

34、t, and this year the walk will be supported by Bidwells and Barclays.To achieve the target （目标） of 50,000, the charity needs 25 teams, each between 4-6 people.

39、an you imagine what 680,000 tons of food look like? Thats the amount of food wasted in Britain each year, and at the top of the list of wasted food is bread. In the British diet, bread appears in every meal. It is eaten for breakfast, used for sandwiches for lunch and put in soups at dinner. Almost
40、everyone in Britain buys bread - from people of affluent families to common people who dont have much money.Bread is so important to the British that they use the slang （俚语） word “bread” to mean “money” and the word “loaf” （一条面包） to mean “head”. So lets use our “loaves” to understand why so much “br
41、ead” is wasted.Even though bread is still sold in such a popular way and in such a large amount, that doesnt mean it is made full use of. We often say that half a loaf is still better than none, but it seems people are simply buying much more than they need, so they throw away the bread that they do
42、nt need.Baker Chris Young explains that the British arent valuing their bread because bread is no longer respected. “None of the bread that is thrown away isrealbread - homemade or carefully made bread, but is bought from the bread shop.”Another baker Mark Boyle agrees. “If you make something by you
43、rself, you dont want to waste it because you know how much energy you have put into it. Although home baking is a nice idea, they dont have much time to make bread by themselves at home because they have to work such long hours every day. So they simply buy bread and just bring it home to eat.”Perha
44、ps the British should try to bake bread by themselves, which can probably make their diet healthier and make their dustbins lighter.63The first paragraph shows us that _.Abread plays an important part in British dietBbread is the favorite food of the BritishCdifferent British people like different k
45、inds of breadDbread will become less popular in Britain64The underlined word “affluent” in Paragraph 1 means “_”.ApoorBusualCrich Dhappy 65What does it mean if a British boss says to his workers “Use your loaf!”?AHe wants his workers to have bread in the company.BHe advises his workers to eat more b
46、read.CHe asks his workers to work more cleverly and carefully.DHe promises to give his workers more money.66Mark Boyle believes that the British throw much bread mainly because _.Athey are too rich to value breadBthey are tired of eating breadCthey dont like the taste of breadDthey dont put much ene
47、rgy into baking breadDMost people only tap （发掘） a small part of their potential （潜能）. You do what you CAN do, but are you doing what you COULD do? Most people do what they CAN do, but not what they COULD do. But there is a whole other world of possibilities out there that most of us dont even let ou
48、rselves think about them.The larger question we need to ask ourselves is: Can we reach a greater potential than we have ever imagined? In fact, if you stop and think about it, what could you do? I mean if you werent afraid of failing, or if you decided to stop coming up with reasons for not doing so
49、mething, what COULD you actually accomplish （完成）?As a psychotherapist （心理咨询师）, I was always interested in the stories that people told about themselves.Joey Boring, a stockbroker （股票经纪人） worked in Edward Jones, was an average performer until he got a vision （想法） of what he COULD do. Within two years
50、 Joey became one of the top performers. In fact, during the global financial crisis （金融危机）, his performance was up by 43. Why? Joey decided not to limit himself. He said, “I realized that I could do more than I had ever thought I could do”, and he did! During a time that could have easily been the w
51、orst financial period in his career, he chose to view it as an opportunity and began to focus his efforts on ways to better serve his existing （现有的） customers.A young friend of mine, Ashtyn Van, sprained （扭） her knee pretty badly. As a 14-year-old girl, she decided that she could tell herself that s
52、he was strong enough and good enough to do it. That day, she received the highest score at the state level competition. She could do more than she was doing.I wonder what limits you today. Perhaps we are only held back by our own limited thinking.67According to the text, what you COULD do are things
53、 that _.Ayou are not sure but may be successful inByou have the ability to doCyou are able to deal withDyou have managed to do68What does the author mean by giving the two examples?ATo sing the praises of the two. BTo say the two are really lucky dogs. CTo advise people to follow the two examples. D
54、To prove ones potential is far bigger than he or she can imagine.69If Joey didnt have the idea of what he COULD do during the crisis, he _.Amight have been more successfulBmight have made Edward Jones closedCmight have suffered lossesDmight have lost his job70Which would be the best title for the te

56、ead on for fresh ways to make your office a kinder, gentler place. Give a happy “Hello!” in the morning.Do you walk into the office, eyes down, and immediately start work?

57、n change unfriendly workplace relations. Learn the art of small talk.Ask your co-workers about their interets - their favorite music, movies, and books, as well as their hobbies. 72 Once you know what catches their imagination, pick up stories from newspapers or magazines to help start conversations
58、. Ask what they think.People love to be asked for their opinion, so go out of your way to ask, “What do you think of this report?” or “How do you think I should deal with this situation?” 73 Avoid gossip （流言蜚语）. 74 So return the favor. When a co-worker walks towards you bearing a piece of gossip, re
59、spond （回应） with, “Really?” and then change the subject or get back to work. If you dont respond, the gossiper will move on. 75 To win friends at work, start with good office etiquette （礼节）. Theres nothing more frustrating（令人沮丧的） to busy co-workers than to have their emails and phone messages ignored
60、. Your silence doesnt just make their jobs harder; it also conveys （传达） an unpleasant message: You are unimportant to me.AStop complainingBReturn calls and emails immediately.CThen give the advice giver a silent thank-you.DAlways work as hard as anyone working for you.EYou dont want anyone talking a
