14、题卡上将该项涂黑。AMost people say “yes” much more readily than “no”.A friend is moving house this weekend and would like some help, and you agree. But, what you really wanted was relaxing at home for a couple of quiet days. Or a roommate spends the whole weekend playing video games and wants to borrow your
15、homework for “reference”. But, youve just finished it after working hard for a whole day.Many people say “yes” to this kind of requests. They tend not to consider their own interests and feelings, and are often angry with themselves afterwards. Saying “no” requires courage and considerable practice.
16、 “Everyone wants to be liked.” Says Gabriele Steinki, a German psychologist. “Saying no risks losing the affection of the person asking for the favor, Or even a job.” The result is that many people say “yes” just for keeping the peace. But experts say this is regrettable. Anyone should have the righ
17、t to say “no”. In fact, rejecting a request can even help to stabilize a relationship because it expresses real affection. But, for people accustomed to agreeing every request, its very distressing to say “no”.Most people believe that if they say “no”, theyll lose the affection of the person. But th
18、e affection is important to them. This way of thinking can be replaced by this : “It he only likes me because I always do what suits him, then the price of this affection is too high in the long term.”When people saying “no”, Steinki advises giving the reasons calmly until person gets the message.36
19、What does the second paragraph tell us?AIn fact people are usually selfish.BSometimes people say “yes” when they really want to say “no”.CIts not suitable to ask others to help at weekends.DIts disgusting to borrow homework for reference.37Many people dont say “no” though they really want to because

But sometimes, when the wind becomes
22、 a storm. it can be very destructive. A series of such storms struck the CS last month and caused very serious damage and human pain.Every year, major storms cause many problems around the world. There is nothing people can do to stop these powerful forces of nature. But new techniques are helping s
23、cientists to predict how, when and where big storms will happen. The more exact scientists warnings are, the better people can prepare for the storm.Predictions are improving. “Weve gotten better over the years, especially the last few years,” says Phil Klotzbach, a scientist at an American universi
24、ty. How is a storm formed? Even if scientists know where a storm will happen, winds can suddenly change, carrying the storm to a new direction. “For a hurricane to happen, conditions have to be just right, “Klotzbach says.”First, the ocean water needs to be warm enough so that it evaporates and rise
25、s into the air. As it rises, the vapor（水蒸气）cool and turns back into liquid. This process gives off heat. This produces energy like an engine that causes winds to increase. It drives the formation of a hurricane.If wind speeds reach 40 miles per hour, the system is called a “tropical storm”, and it g
26、ets a name. At 72miles per hour, it becomes a hurricane.Hurricanes that hit the US start when a thunderstorm forms off the coast of Africa Storms also develop over tropical waters in other parts of the world.On average, 60 or 70 storms form off Africa every year, About 10 of them get names. There ar
27、e usually about six hurricanes. Two tend to be very big, with winds of 115 miles per hour or higher.The hurricane season lasts from June to November. Ninety percent of all hurricanes hit in August, September, and October.40According to the text, hurricanes usually .Aform off the coast of Africa and

31、est lizard（蜥蜴）species（种类）. The island is the home of the huge lizard called the Komodo dragon.A later species of the Jurassic（侏罗纪）period dinosaurs 130 million years ago, the Komodo dragon is in danger and has been placed under protection by the Indonesian government.The local people who show great r
32、espect for the species call the huge lizard “Buaya Darat”. Tales handed down over generations of islanders speak of the dragon warning people of getting close to this kind of animal.The animal can reach a length of three meters when fully grown, gain a weight of about 135 kilograms and may live to a
33、n age of about 100 years. It digs a hole in the ground as deep as 9 meters and lay eggs up to 30 at a time that hatch in April or May. The newly hatched lizards, about 45 centimeters long, live in trees for several months.Komodo dragon has been known to eat smaller members of the species and sometim
34、es even other grown ups. The Komodo dragon was first discovered in 1912 by a group of fishermen who protected themselves from a storm in the Banda Sea on the island. Various species of the Komodo dragon are also found in Asia, Australia and Africa, but it is only on Komodo and western tip of the nei

The young oranges
38、are growing well in Floridas weather. Warm sunshine and gentle rains, along with Ed Rawlings expert care , will produce a good crop of oranges this year.But Ed has to fight against Floridas changeable winter weather. In January and February. temperatures can destroy Eds entire orange crops. Having f
39、armed in Florida for the past 35 years, Ed Rawlings is prepared for the frosts（霜）. When temperatures drop below freezing. Ed tries to save his crop by watering his orange trees. The water freezes and forms a thin layer（层）of ice on the trees. Strange as it may sound, this thin layer of ice actually k
40、eeps the fruit warm.What happens is simple. When the trees are watered, the water loses heat and becomes ice. The warmth of the heat it loses is sucked in by the fruit and keeps its temperature at a safe level. Ed Rawlings has effectively used this method（方法）to save many orange crops.But Ed still fa
41、ces some difficulties. The trees should be watered at the exact moment the temperature drops to the freezing point. Also just the right quantity of water must he used. Too much water can form a thick layer of ice that will break the trees branches. Another difficulty is that wind blows away the heat
42、. So Ed has to worry about not only when but also how often his trees should be watered, and how much water should be used.Computer technology may help Ed Rawlings with some of these worries. With equipment, air and soil temperatures and wind speed can be measured. The information is fed into a comp
43、uter which can tell when temperatures drop to freezing. The computer can correctly decide the quantity of water to be used and how frequently the trees should be watered. Ed Rawlings will find looking after his orange trees a lot easier with the help of a computer, and well all have the benefits（or
44、advantages） of computer age oranges.48The passage is mainly about .Aa farmers expert care for his orange trees Bthe different uses of computersCgrowing oranges in Floridas changeable weather Ddifferent ways of frost protection49In the writers eyes, computers .Aare too expensive for small farmersBcan

Bob Crossly, a human resource expert, notices this in the job applications that come a
48、cross his desk every day. “Its amazing how many candidates cross themselves out,” he says.“Resumes（简历）arrive with faults. Some candidates dont bother to spell the companys name correctly. Once I see a mistake, I cross out the candidate,” Crossly concludes. “If they cant take care of these details, w
49、hy should we trust them with a job?”Can we pay too much attention to details? Absolutely! Perfectionists struggle over little things at the cost of something larger they work toward. “To keep from losing the forest for the trees,” says Charles Garfield, the professor at the University of California,
50、 San Francisco, “we must constantly ask ourselves how the details we are working on fit into the larger picture. If they dont, we should drop them and move to something else”.Garfield compares this process to his work as a computer scientist at NASA. “The Apollo II moon launch was slightly off cours
51、e 90 percent of the time,” says Garfield. “But a successful landing was still likely because we knew the exact coordinate（坐标）of our goal. This allowed us to make adjustment as necessary.” Knowing where to go helps us judge the importance of every task we undertake.Too often we believe what accounts
52、for others success is some special secret or a lucky break. But rarely is success so mysterious. Again and again we see that by doing little things within our grasp well, large rewards follow.52According to the passage, some job applicants were rejected because .Athey failed to present resumes that
53、are free of mistakesBthey failed to give a detailed description of their backgroundCthey cross out their names from the applicants list themselvesDtheir handwriting on the resume was hard to recognize53The third paragraph is intended to state that .Atrees are as important as forestBwe should pay muc
