2、aky is leading the new industry of upcycling (升级改造)Instead of recycling，TerraCycle takes packaging headed for landfills (废物填埋地) and reuses itmore or less whole.TerraCycles 85 employees make nearly 200 products，sold at shops such as Petco，Kmart，Whole Foods Market，and Target.Szakys $7.4 million compan
3、y，now also moving ahead in Mexico，Canada，the United Kingdom and Brazil，is quite different from the business he founded with his classmate Jon Beyer in 2002 as a freshman at Princeton University.The two entered a business competition with a plan to sell organic plant fertilizers made from worm waste.
4、They lost the competition，but started the business anyway.With their goalto make products entirely out of rubbishsuddenly clear，Szaky knew the time was right to drop out of Princeton.TerraCycles first product used dininghall waste to feed the worms and thrownaway bottles to package the fertilizer.Th
5、e result：a cheap，green breakthrough.Word spread，and in 2004，Home Depot began carrying the fertilizer in its Canadian stores.To Szaky，waste does not exist in nature.TerraCycle is a “second chance” employer of，say，a piece of furniture，an icecream container.As Szaky points out，“The biggest problem with
6、 most green，fairtrade，and organic products is that they tend to cost more.At TerraCycle，everything is made from rubbish，and rubbish is free.People should be able to protect the planet without having to pay a cost for that right.”【语篇解读】本文介绍了Szaky创立TerraCycle公司对垃圾进行升级改造，从而制造出新产品的经过及理念。1What is Tom Sza
7、ky now?AThe CEO of TerraCycle.BAn employee of Home Depot.CA student at Princeton University.DThe manager of a food company.答案Aks5u细节理解题。根据第一段中的“the 28yearold CEO of Trenton，New Jerseybased TerraCycle”可知，Tom Szaky是TerraCycle公司的首席执行官。因此，该题选A。2How did Szaky get the idea of upcycling?AFrom his visits to
8、 foreign companies.BFrom his studies at Princeton University.CThrough shopping at big stores in America.DThrough the experience of a business competition.答案Dks5u推理判断题。根据第三段中的“The two entered a business competition with a plan to sell organic plant fertilizers made from worm waste.They lost the compe
9、tition，but started the business anyway”可知，Szaky从事升级改造产业的想法源于一次商业竞争的经历。因此，该题选D。3What is the goal of TerraCycle?ATo make cheap and green products.BTo recycle waste materials in another way.CTo make products completely out of rubbish.DTo change worm waste into organic plant fertilizers.答案Cks5u细节理解题。根据第
10、四段中的“With their goalto make products entirely out of rubbish.”可知，TerraCycle公司的目标是“完全用垃圾制造产品”。因此，该题选C。A、D两项都是该公司做的具体事情，而非其目标。B项与第二段中的“Instead of recycling，TerraCycle takes packaging headed for landfills (废物填埋池) and reuses it.”的表述不一致。4What is the advantage of upcycling according to Szaky?AThe cost is
11、kept rather low.BMore materials are available.CIt has a large promising market.DIts products are environmentally friendly.答案Aks5u细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“At TerraCycle，everything is made from rubbish，and rubbish is free.People should be able to protect the planet without having to pay a cost for that right”可知
12、，升级改造产业的优势在于原材料是免费的，制造成本相当低廉。因此，该题选A。BIt appears that the police now have a device that can read license plates and check if a car is unregistered，uninsured or stolen.We already know that National Security Agency can dip into your Facebook page and Google searches.And it seems that almost every stor

24、.What this means，unfortunately，is that we are all Winston Smith.And Big Brother is the modern surveillance state.【语篇解读】我们如今生活在乔治奥威尔的小说1984中所预测的世界里。作者从荧光屏、无尽的战争、新语言以及记忆洞这几个最明显的方面把现在与1984中的未来世界进行比较，表达了对政府机构监视我们的自由和隐私的担忧。5What caused 1984 to sell well on A?AThe fact that authorities have access to our

233、.Young people always suffer in recessions.Employers stop hiring them; and they often get rid of new employees because they are easier to sack.But in previous periods，such as the recessions of the 1970s，1980s and 1990s，older workers were also dismissed.This time is different.During the financial cris

235、 looking for work，but also inactivity，where people are not seeking jobs.Whereas the average nonemployment rate in the OECD has risen by four percentage points among young people and by oneandahalf points among 25 to 54yearolds，it has fallen by two points among the 5564 age group.Why have older emplo

239、byboomers who benefited from better education than their predecessors.Older workers now have a stronger motivation to stay in employment because of the impact of the crisis on wealth.Many will argue that older workers have done better at the expense of the young.That view is wrongheaded.First，it is

245、了反常的变化。自从2008年金融危机以来，年长雇员相比其他年龄段的员工，受到的冲击则较为有限。本文主要讲述了年龄较大的工人表现优良的一些原因。8edge/advantageks5u根据文章第二段的This time is different. During the financial crisis in 2008，and since，they have done better than other age groups可知，然而这次情形有所不同。自从2008年金融危机以来，年长雇员相比其他年龄段的员工，受到的冲击则较为有限。这表明在就业方面年长的员工比年轻的员工更具有优势。故edge/adva
246、ntage符合题意。have an edge/advantage over sb/sth为固定短语，意为“比有优势，占上风”。9Reasonsks5u根据文章第四段的Why have older employees done so well可知，该部分讲述的是年龄较大的工人表现优良的原因。故Reasons正确。10provide ks5u根据文章第四段的In some southern European countries they benefit from job protection not afforded to younger workers可知，在南欧的一些国家，年纪大的工人享有工作
247、保障的福利，而年龄偏低工人则不包含在内。由not afforded to younger workers可知provide符合题意。afford sth to sb/provide sth for sb均为固定短语，意为“向某人提供某物”。11compensated ks5u根据文章第四段的What has changed，says Stefano Scarpetta，head of the OECDs employment directorate，is that firms now bear the full costs of getting rid of older staff可知，如今的
248、用人单位如果要辞退年龄大的员工，需要承担全部的费用。根据bear the full costs of getting rid of older staff可知compensated符合题意。compensate for为固定短语，意为“弥补，补偿”。12activeks5u根据文章第五段的Job losses among older workers have also been balanced by falls in inactivity，reflecting employment pressure that were already apparent before the crisis可知
249、，虽然年长工人丢掉工作的情况时有发生，但由于求职积极性上升，有工作的年长工人人数与前持平，这反映出危机之前工人们已经明显地感觉到了压力。根据falls in inactivity可知active符合题意。inactivity意为“不活跃，无生气，懒散”；be active in doing sth为固定短语，意为“积极做某事”。13health/condition/shape ks5u根据文章第五段的Older workers are healthier than they used to be and work is less physically demanding可知，现代年龄大的工人身
250、体状况较之于以往健康很多，而且工作对于人力需求也逐步下降。由healthier 可知health/condition/shape符合题意。in good health/condition/shape为固定短语，意为“健康的”。14educationks5u根据文章第六段的Todays 55to 64yearolds are the advance group of the postwar babyboomers who benefited from better education than their predecessors可知，今天，55岁至64岁的工人算得上是二战后“婴儿潮”的先头部队
251、，他们比前辈接受了更好的教育。根据better education than their predecessors可知education符合题意。15motivated ks5u根据文章第六段的Older workers now have a stronger motivation to stay in employment because of the impact of the crisis on wealth可知，由于金融危机对财富的冲击，年长工人继续工作的动力更强。由have a stronger motivation to stay in employment可知motivated符
252、合题意。motivate sb to do sth为固定短语，意为“激励某人做某事”。16robbed ks5u根据文章最后一段的Many will argue that older workers have done better at the expense of the young.That view is wrongheaded.First，it is a mistaken belief that a job gained for one person is a job lost for another；there is no fixed“lump of labour”可知，很多人认为
253、年龄大的工人做得比较好是以牺牲年轻人为代价换来的。这种观点是不正确的。第一，认为一个人上岗就意味着另一个人下岗，纯属谬误；“劳动总数”并不是固定的。由此可见，认为年龄大的工人夺走了年轻人的就业机会的观点是荒谬的。根据at the expense of the young 和a job gained for one person is a job lost for another可知robbed符合题意。rob sb of sth为固定短语，意为“剥夺，夺走，使丧失”。17wayks5u根据文章最后一段的There are plenty of things that should be done

336、summer of 1936，at the virtually unprecedented price of three dollars，reached about one million by the end of December.Because it was released in the era of the Great Depression and Mitchell worried the high $3.00 price would ruin its chance for success.Actually the book was a bestseller by the time
337、reviews began to appear in national magazines.Herschel Brickell，a critic for the New York Evening Post，praised Mitchell for the way she tosses out the window all the thousands of technical tricks our novelists have been playing with for the past twenty years.One criticism by literary scholar Patrici
338、a Yaeger，leveled at Gone with the Wind，is for its portrayal of African Americans in the 19th century South.Former_field_hands during the early days of Reconstruction are described behaving “as creatures of small intelligence might naturally be expected to do.”Like monkeys or small children turned lo
339、ose among treasured objects whose value is beyond their comprehension，they ran wildeither from wrong pleasure in destruction or simply because of their ignorance.In Gone with the Wind Mitchell is blind to racial oppression and“the inseparability of race and gender”that defines the southern belle cha
340、racter of Scarlett，according to Patricia Yaeger.Yet there are complexities in the way that Mitchell dealt with racial issues.Scarlett was asked by a Yankee woman for advice on who to appoint as a nurse for her children; Scarlett suggested a“darky”，much to the disgust of the Yankee woman who was seek
341、ing an Irish maid，a“Bridget”African Americans and Irish Americans are treated “in precisely the same way” in Gone with the Wind，writes David OConnell in his 1996 book，The Irish Roots of Margaret Mitchells Gone with the Wind.Ethnic slurs (种族蔑称) on the Irish and Irish stereotypes spread in every part
342、of the novel，OConnell claims，and Scarlett is not an exception to the insults.And apparently in the novel，the Irish American OHaras were slaveholders whereas African Americans were held as slaves.Speaking on the subject of whether Gone with the Wind should be taught in schools，James Loewen，author of
343、Lies My Teacher Told Me：Everything Your American History Textbook Got Wrong，says the novel should be taught in schools.Students should be told that Gone with the Wind presents the wrong view of slavery，Loewen states.Besides，the main complaint was that the racial slur“nigger”appears repeatedly in the
344、 novel.In the same complaint were several other books：The Nigger of the Narcissus，Uncle Toms Cabin，and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.Another criticism of the novel is that it promotes plantation values.Mitchell biographer Marianne Walker，author of Margaret Mitchell & John Marsh：The Love Story B
345、ehind Gone with the Wind，is of the opinion that those who believe Gone with the Wind promotes plantation values have not read the book.Walker states it is the popular 1939 film that“promotes a false notion of the Old South”She goes on to add that Mitchell had no involvement in the production of the
346、film.Perhaps the most enduring legacy(遗产) of Gone with the Wind is that people worldwide would incorrectly think it was the true story of the Old South and how it was changed by the American Civil War and Reconstruction.The film version of the novel “amplified this effect”Scholars of the period have
347、 written in recent years about the negative effects the novel has had on race relations.【语篇解读】本文介绍了玛格丽特米切尔创作的小说飘的相关信息以及赫歇尔布里克尔、帕特丽夏雅格、大卫奥康奈尔和玛丽安沃克对该书的评价。25When Gone with the Wind was published，_Ait became the top bestseller all of the timeBreading was more popular than anything else thenCthe price o
348、f the book was too high for people thenDAmerican people were suffering financial problems答案Dks5u细节理解题。根据文章可知，飘在大萧条时期出版的，当时美国人民正在遭受金融问题之苦。故选项D正确。26In Paragraph 3，the underlined part“Former_field_hands”refers to_Apeasants in the early timeBAfricanAmerican peopleCcreatures of small intelligenceDpeople
349、in Reconstruction答案Bks5u推理判断题。画线部分指的是上文的African Americans in the 19th century South，即十九世纪南方的非洲裔美国人。故选项B正确。在文中Former field hands意为“原先的农奴，即在美国南方种植园里劳动的黑奴”。27David OConnells view is different from Patricia Yaegers in _AMitchells Ethnic slurs in the novelBMitchells description of slave laborersCMitchell
350、s attitude towards the Irish peopleDMitchells ways of dealing with racial problems答案Dks5u细节理解题。帕特丽夏雅格认为，在飘中，米切尔对种族压迫视而不见。但是大卫奥康奈尔却认为米切尔在处理种族问题的方式上存在着复杂性，非洲裔美国人和爱尔兰裔美国人在飘中的待遇是一模一样的。由此可知，在米切尔处理种族问题的方式上大卫奥康奈尔与帕特丽夏雅格的观点是不同的。故选项D符合题意。28According to Paragraph 5，which of the following statements is True?AJ
351、ames Loewen sings high praise for American history textbooks.BUncle Toms Cabin also shows some racial discrimination.CThe repeated appearance of the racial slur“nigger”is only a trick.DGone with the Wind should be taught because it shows slavery is wrong.答案Bks5u细节理解题。汤姆叔叔的小屋中使用了“黑鬼”这个带有种族侮辱的词语，这说明其中
352、带有种族歧视。故选项B正确。29What can we infer as to the film Gone with the Wind?AIt has nothing to do with the novel.BIt promotes a false concept of plantation.CIt reflects the true story of the Old South.DIt is not so faithful to the novel.答案Dks5u推理判断题。人们批评飘宣传了种植园价值观，但是米切尔的传记作者玛丽安沃克认为1939年的电影宣传了旧南方的种植园价值观的错误观念
353、。这说明电影乱世佳人没有忠实于原著小说飘。故选项D符合题意。30Among the four persons，who doesnt give positive comments on Gone with the Wind?AHerschel Brickell. BDavid OConnell.CPatricia Yaeger. DMarianne Walker.答案Cks5u细节理解题。帕特丽夏雅格对飘持批评的态度，没有对飘做出积极的评价。故选项C符合题意。第9练阅读理解书面表达.阅读理解A Fund Tianhong Zenglibao has become the first fund i

739、can take steps to relax or to control our emotions，and avoid further stress.For example，getting angry ten times in one single day at our team members，peers，or other people we interact with is most likely not a sign that they have suddenly become more annoying or incapable.It is more likely to be a s

741、high.An example of selfmanagement is keeping our sadness or anger from reaching an intensity when we cannot function and work normally，and when it can even be painful.Such high emotional wave further escalates stress in two ways.First，stress is expanded by the feeling that we are “losing control”And
