22、（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）A A few years ago, Pioneer Hi-Bred International, where I was employed. purchased Norand Corporation. Pioneers sales representatives in the field used Norand hand-held terminals to upload daily sales information and download new price and sales incentive information. Pioneer bough
23、t so many of these hand-held-terminals, the economies made the purchase of Norand look interesting. Owning Norand also allowed Pioneer to explore high-technology markets outside agriculture. But after a few years, the emerging laptop PC technology made the hand-held units obsolete (已废弃的). Pioneer so
24、ld Norand at a loss. Pioneer always took a given percent of the annual profits to divide equally among all employees, so our profit-sharing checks were lower than if Pioneer had not purchased Norand. Additionally, my Pioneer stock was lower than it had been before the purchase of Norand. I was not p
25、leased. The CEO of Pioneer, Tom Urban, made annual formal visits to each of the Pioneer divisions to talk about the state of the business and to listen to employees concerns. When he walked into the meeting room for his first visit after the sale of Norand, he acknowledged the group, remove his jack
26、et, and neatly folded it across the back of the chair. He loosened his tie, undid his collar and rolled up his sleeves.The next thing he said was the last thing I ever expected to hear a CEO say. He said, I made a mistake buying Norand and I am sorry. I am sorry your profit-sharing was lower because
27、 of the purchase, and I am sorry your stock was hurt by the purchase. I will continue to take risks, but I am a bit smarter now, and I will work harder for you. A great man and leader stood before us that day. As I sat listening to him, I knew I could trust him, and that he deserved every bit of loy
28、alty I could give to him and to Pioneer. I also knew I could take risks in my own job. In the brief moment of silence before the questions started, I recall thinking that follow him into any battle.41. All of the following are the results brought by Pioneers purchase of Norand except . A. Pioneer ca
29、n explore high-technology markets outside agriculture B. Pioneers sales representatives can upload information using Norand hand-held terminals C. some of Norands employees joined the Pioneer D. it later led to the lower of profit-sharing checks of Pioneers original employees42. The underlined sente
30、nce in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to . A. the next thing he said was what I expected least to hear a CEO say B. the next thing he said was the last thing I heard from a CEO C. the next thing he said was what I expected most to hear a CEO say D. the next thing he said was what I heard
31、from the last CEO43. Why did Tom Urban remove his jacket, loosen his tie, undo his collar and roll up his sleeves before he spoke? A. He felt hot in the room. B. He wanted to look cool by doing this. C. He was too excited. D. He wanted to be close and frank with his employees.44. What did the employ
32、ees feel after Tom Urban apologized to them? A. They felt he was a stupid CEO. B. They felt he did not deserve their loyalty C. They felt he was more trustworthy. D. They didnt want to take risks with him.B It is always hard for a small fish to live in a big pond. Plutos recent departure from the cl
33、assical planet family clearly proves that size really matters. Astronomers voted on August 24 to create the first scientific definition of the word planet, and Pluto obviously didnt make the cut. It turned out to be only a dwarf planet (矮行星). After weeks of heated debate, over 2,500 astronomers from
34、 73 countries voted on the definition of a planet at a conference of the international Astronomical Union (IAU). According to the definition, a planet must have a clear neighborhood around its orbit. Pluto has widely been considered a planet since its discovery in 1930. Unfortunately, it has a speci
35、al orbit which overlaps with Neptunes. It is all because, compared with Neptune, Pluto is very small. It is attracted by Neptunes gravity when the two planets get closer. According to IAU, a dwarf planet should have an orbit around the Sun. It will not have a clear neighborhood around its orbit, and
36、 must not be a satellite. The new classification means that the science textbooks will have to be updated. The solar system is now made up of the eight classical planets, together with a number of dwarf planets. The classical planets are: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Nept
37、une. The debate over Plutos status started in 1992. After an advanced telescope was sent into space, astronomers started find a belt of objects, which lies beyond Neptune. The belt contains nearly 1,000 objects, including Pluto. As they continued the exploration, scientists recently discovered at le
38、ast 41 dwarf planets at the edges of the solar system. There are at least two objects of a similar size to Pluto. It seems that even if the IAU had kept Plutos status as a planet, the classical theory of nine planets in the solar system would have had to be changed, but the other way around. More dw
39、arf, planets of a similar size to Pluto would join the family of planets. Scientists will probably find many more dwarf planets.45. According to the passage, Pluto is . A. a planet which has a clear neighborhood around its orbit B. a satellite of Neptune which was discovered in 1930 C. the smallest
40、planet in the solar system D. a planet which has an orbit around the sun46. The sentence It is always hard for a small fish to live in a big pond quoted in the beginning of the passage is used to . A. tell us a small fish can hardly survive in the big pond B. tell us the size of an object really mat
41、ters C. mean that a small planet can hardly exist in the solar system D. explain the disappearanee of Pluto in the solar system47. From the last paragraph we can infer that if IAU kept Plutos status as a planet, the number of planets in the solar system would be . A. eight B. nine C. less than nine
42、D. more than nine48. Which of the following statements is NOT true aceording to the passage? A. According to definition of a planet, if Pluto were bigger it would not have left the classic planet family. B. Its quite possible for dwarfs to lose if they compete with big men C. Pluto has a special orb
43、it which overlap with Neptunes, because it is so small as to be attraeted by Neptunes gravity when the two planets get closer D. A dwarf planet, which can not be a satellite without a clear neighborhood around its orbit, should have an orbit around the Sun.C The Winter Olympics proved no match for t
44、elevisions gold-medal winner, American Idol. Foxs unbelievable successful contest crashed the Olympics in head-to-head competition on Tuesday night, 27 million viewers to 16.1 million, according to Nielsen Media Research. The Olympics recovered a bit after Idol went off the air, but its overall audi
45、ence of 18.6 million was the least-watched winter Olympics telecast since Naganos closing ceremonies in 1998, Nielsen said. Since its opening on Friday, the Turin games have been running well below the 2002 Salt Lake City games in viewership interest. Much of that was expected, but Tuesdays rating w
46、as the first alarming sign for NBC that increased TV competition has taken a toll. The competition from Idol is heavier than the Olympics has ever seen, said NBC Sports spokeswoman Alana Russo. It doesnt figure to get any easier, with Idol and ABCs Lost on the air Wednesday. CBS Survivor and CSI: Cr
47、ime Scene Investigation offer more competition on Thursday. Even figure skating, the most popular winter Olympics sport for viewers, didnt help much on Tuesday. NBC filled about two-thirds of the hour during which it competed with American Idol with tape of the mens figure-skating competition. Throu
48、gh five nights of Olympics coverage, NBCs average prime time rating is 12.7 ( a rating point represents 1,102, 000 households, or 1 percent of the nations estimated 110.2 million TV homes). NBC said before the games started that it had promised its advertisers a rating of between 12 and 14. If it sl
49、ips below that, NBC will have to make it up to advertisers with free commercial time. American Idol is clearly a phenomenon, said Randy Falco, president of the NBC Universal Television Group. But we expected it and are tracking fight where we planned to be at this point. Between NBC and its networks
50、, about 65 percent of the nations television homes have tuned in at least some of the games.49. How many viewers watched the Winter Olympics on Tuesday night?

51、to go off the air. B. To play the tapes of mens figure skating. C. To add Survivor to its program. D. To do more advertising.51. If the rating slips below 12, NBC will . A. do more advertising for nothing B. stop running normally C. never cover the Olympics D. pay extra money for advertisers52. What
52、 does the underlined word taken a toll mean? A. paid off. B. caused loss. C. broken out. D. picked up.D URBANA, ILL. (AP)-Mike dropped out of college to support his pregnant(怀孕的) girlfriend and now works as a manager of a trucking company, Lynn graduated with honors from Harvard University and was h
53、ired as a lawyer with a top law firm in a major city. What do these two people have in common? Ten years ago they were both high school valedictorians (致告别辞者). A University of Illinois study follows the lives of 81 valedictorians and salutatorians (致词的学生代表) who graduated a decade ago from public and
54、 private high schools in the state. Tales of Success and Failure The study found tales of success and failure. The research on 46 women and 35 men found that some were doctors and scientists, one was a drug addict, another was a waitress with emotional problems. There is a popular idea about people
55、who do well in school doing well in life, said Terry Denny, professor of education. Denny conducted the study with Karen Arnold, a former graduate student of Denny s who is now a professor at Boston College. Denny and Arnold contacted the 81 students before graduation, and then followed up with inte
56、rviews nearly every other year. They also sent them questionnaires in the mail. Varied Careers One-third of the students are lawyers, or have a doctorate. Nineteen are in business and 15 are engineers or computer scientists. Others include a farmer, a stock broker, and an aerobics instructor. Arnold
57、 says many of the students have only average positions in the work world and that most are not headed for greatness in their careers. Denny, however, says that it is too early to make such predictions. Who expects someone to be on the Supreme Court at the age of 28 or to be the discoverer of an impo
58、rtant scientific invention right after college? he said. These students are just getting started in life. They are just beginning to find out what life is all about.53.

61、probably wrote this article? A. College graduates B. Reporters C. Professors and researchers D. TeachersE I have nothing to say about whether or not A Day Without Immigrants had a positive or negative effect on the question of how the federal government should deal with the huge population of undocu
62、mented illegal immigrants in this country. Ill leave that question to others. Regardless of how you feel about the event, one conclusion is obvious. Using the theme of A Day Without as a way to focus national attention on a particular subject is a great idea, and could serve as a method for increasi
63、ng public awareness about other issues that affect daily life in America. Here are my top three examples: A Day Without Speeding. How hard could this be? If all drivers would strictly obey every posted speed limit on highways, downtown, on neighborhood streets, and in parking lots for one 24-hour cy
64、cle, the benefits would be huge. A Day Without Losing Your Temper. A higher degree of difficulty here, and I know that from personal experience. When something goes wrong at home or on the job, there may be brief satisfaction in yelling or kicking the furniture, but erupting with anger usually doesn
65、t do anything to solve the problem, and in many cases it makes the situation more unpleasant. A Day Without Having All The Answers. I would like to get a break from hearing anyone speak the phrase, Heres what youre doing wrong. Right now the US is jampacked with citizens who believe they can point o
66、ut the cause of every single problem in existence and then solve it on the spot. I believe they need to be quiet sometimes and use their ears instead of their voices. I wonder how would average Americans react to such a collective pause? Would it be a day of angry protests, or joyful celebrations?57
