He has a goo
19、d heart, but always feared applying for a new job. One day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview. His appointment was at 10 am and it was already 8:30. While waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed to be interviewed, he saw an elderly man wildly kicking
20、 the tyre of his car. Obviously there was something wrong with the car. Jimmy immediately went up to lend him a hand. When Jimmy finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. Jimmy said there was no need to pay him; he just helped someone in need, and he
21、had to rush for an interview. Then the old man said, “Well, I could take you to the office for your interview. Its the least I could do. Please, I insist.” Jimmy agreed. Upon arrival, Jimmy found a long line of applicants waiting to be interviewed. Jimmy still had some grease on him after the car re
22、pair, but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. One by one, the applicants left the interviewers office with disappointed look on their faces. Finally his name was called. The interviewer was sitting on a large chair facing the office window. Rocking the chair back and
23、forth, he asked, “Do you really need to be interviewed?” Jimmys heart sank. “With the way I look now, how could I possibly pass this interview?” he thought to himself. Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Jimmys surprise, it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning. It turned out he
24、was the General Manager of the company. “Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I made the right decision to have you as part of our workforce before you even stepped into the office. I just know youd be a trustworthy worker. Congratulations!” Jimmy sat down and they shared a cup of
25、well-deserved coffee as he landed himself a new job. 41、Why did Jimmy apply for a new job?A. He wanted a higher position B. He was bored with his jobC. He was out of workD. He hoped to find a better boss42、What did Jimmy see on the way to the interview?A. A friends car had a flat tyreB. a wild man w
26、as pushing a carC. a terrible accident happened D. an old mans car broke down43、Why did the old man offer Jimmy a ride?A. He was also to be interviewed B. He was thankful to JimmyC. He always helped people in needD. He needed a traveling companion44、How did Jimmy feel on hearing the interviewers que
27、stion?A. He was sorry for the other applicantsB. There was no hope for him to get the jobC. He regretted helping the old manD. The interviewer was very rude45、What can we learn from Jimmys experience？A. Where there is a will, theres a wayB. A friend in need is a friend indeedC. Two heads are better
28、than oneD. Good is rewarded with good.BWhen asked about happiness, we usually think of something extraordinary, an absolute delight, which seems to get rarer the older we get.For kids, happiness has a magical quality. Their delight at winning a race or getting a new bike is unreserved (毫无掩饰的). In th
29、e teenage years the concept of happiness changes. Suddenly its conditional on such things as excitement, love and popularity. I can still recall the excitement of being invited to dance with the most attractive boy at the school party.In adulthood the things that bring deep joylove, marriage, birtha
30、lso bring responsibility and the risk of loss. For adults, happiness is complicated (复杂的).My definition of happiness is “the capacity for enjoyment”. The more we can enjoy what we have, the happier we are. Its easy to overlook the pleasure we get from the company of friends, the freedom to live wher
31、e we please, and even good health.I experienced my little moments of pleasure yesterday. First I was overjoyed when I shut the last lunch-box and had the house to myself. Then I spent an uninterrupted morning writing, which I love. When the kids and my husband come home, I enjoyed their noise after
32、the quiet of the day.Psychologists tell us that to be happy we need a mix of enjoyable leisure time and satisfying work. I dont think that my grandmother, who raised 14 children, had much of either. She did have a network of close friends and family, and maybe this is what satisfied her.We, however,
33、 with so many choices and such pressure to succeed in every area, have turned happiness into one more thing weve got to have. Were so self-conscious about our “right” to it that its making us miserable. So we chase it and equal it with wealth and success, without noticing that the people who have th
34、ose things arent necessarily happier.Happiness isnt about what happens to usits about how we see what happens to us. Its the skillful way of finding a positive for every negative. Its not wishing for what we dont have , but enjoying what we do possess.46、As people grow older, they _.A. feel it harde
35、r to experience happinessB. associate their happiness less with othersC. will take fewer risks in pursuing happinessD. tend to believe responsibility means happiness47、What can we learn about the author from Paragraphs 5 and 6?A. She is easily pleased by things in daily life.B. She enjoys the freedo
36、m of traveling.C. She cares little about her own health. D. She prefers getting pleasure from housework.48、What can be inferred from Paragraph 7?A. Psychologists think satisfying work is key to happiness.B. Psychologists opinion is well proved by Grandmas case.C. Grandma often found time for social
37、gatherings.D. Grandmas happiness came from modest expectations of life.49、People who equal happiness with wealth and success _.A. consider pressure something blocking their wayB. are at a loss to make correct choicesC. stress their right to happiness too muchD. are more likely to be happy50、What can
38、 be concluded from the passage?A. Happiness lies between the positive and the negativeB. Happy is he who is content. C. Success leads to happiness.D. Each man is the master of his own fate.CMany people think that listening is a passive business. It is just the opposite. Listening well is an active e
39、xercise of our attention and hard work. It is because they do not realize this, or because they are not willing to do the work, that most people do not listen well. Listening well also requires total concentration upon someone else. An essential part of listening well is the rule known as bracketing
40、. Bracketing includes the temporary giving up or setting aside of your own prejudices and desires, to experience as far as possible someone elses world from the inside, stepping into his or her shoes. Moreover, since listening well involves bracketing, it also involves a temporary acceptance of the
41、other person. Sensing this acceptance, the speaker will seem quite willing to open up the inner part of his or her mind to the listener. True communication is under way. The energy required for listening well is so great that it can be accomplished only by the will to extend oneself for mutual growt
42、h.Most of the time we lack this energy. Even though we may feel in our business dealings or social relationships that we are listening well, what we are usually doing is listening selectively. Often we have a prepared list in mind and wonder, as we listen, how we can achieve certain desired results
43、to get the conversation over as quickly as possible or redirected in ways more satisfactory to us. Many of us are far more interested in talking than in listening, or we simply refuse to listen to what we dont want to hear.It wasnt until toward the end of my doctor career that I have found the knowl
44、edge that one is being truly listened to is frequently therapeutic(有疗效的). In about a quarter of the patients I saw, surprising improvement was shown during the first few months of psychotherapy(心理疗法), before any of the roots of problems had been uncovered or explained. There are several reasons for
45、this phenomenon, but chief among them, I believe, was the patients sense that he or she was being truly listened to, often for the first time in years, and for some, perhaps for the first time ever.51、The phrase “stepping into his or her shoes” in paragraph 2 probably means _.A. preparing a topic li
46、st first B. experiencing the speakers inside worldC. directing the talk to the desired results D. focusing on ones own mind52、What is mainly discussed in Paragraph 2?A. How to listen well.B. What to listen to.C. Benefits of listening.D. Problems in listening53、According to the author, in communicati
47、on people tend to _.A. listen activelyB. open up their inner mindC. set aside their prejudicesD. listen purposefully 54、According to the author, the patients improved mainly because _.A. they were taken good care of.B. they knew they were truly listened to.C. they had partners to talk to.D. they kne
48、w the roots of problems.55、What type of writing is the article likely to be?A. science fiction B. popular scienceC. a medical report. D. a news reportDYou are given many opportunities in life to choose to be a victim or creator. When you choose to be a victim, the world is a cold and difficult place
49、. “They” did things to you which caused all of your pain and suffering. “They” are wrong and bad, and life is terrible as long as “they” are around. Or you may blame yourself for all your problems, thus internalizing(内化)your victimization. The truth is, your life is likely to stay that way as long a
50、s you feel a need to blame yourself or others.Those who choose to be creators look at life quite differently. They know there are individuals who might like to control their lives, but they dont let this get in the way. They know they have their weaknesses, yet they dont blame themselves when they f
51、ail. Whatever happens, they have choice in the matter. They believe their dance with each sacred(神圣的)moment of life is a gift and that storms are a natural part of life which can bring the rain needed for emotional and spiritual growth.Victims and creators live in the same physical world and deal wi
52、th many of the same physical realities, yet their experience of life is worlds apart. Victims relish (沉溺)in anger, guilt, and other emotions that cause others-and even themselves-to feel like victims, too. Creators consciously choose love, inspiration, and other qualities which inspire not only them
53、selves, but all around them. Both victims and creators always have choice to determine the direction of their lives.In reality, all of us play the victim or the creator at various points in our lives. One person, on losing a job or a special relationship, may feel as if it is the end of the world an
54、d sink into terrible suffering for months, years, or even a lifetime. Another with the same experience may choose to first experience the grief, then accept the loss and soon move on to be a powerful creative force in his life.In every moment and every circumstance, you can choose to have fuller, ri
55、cher life by setting a clear intention to transform the victim within, and by inviting into your life the powerful creator that you are.56、What does the word “they” in Paragraph 1 probably refer to?A. victims and their sufferings. B. opportunities and problems.C. creators and their choices. D. peopl
56、e and things around you.57、According to Paragraph 2, creators _.A. handle ups and downs of life wiselyB. possess the ability to predict future lifeC. seem willing to experience failures in lifeD. have potential to create something new58、What can we learn from Paragraph 3?A.

57、 quite different things in life.B. Creators and victims are masters of their lives.C. Victims can influence more people than creators.D. Compared with victims, creators are more emotional.59、The examples mentioned in Paragraph 4 show that _.A. it takes creators quite a long time to get rid of their
58、pains.B. people need family support to deal with challengers in life.C. strong attachment to sufferings in life pulls people into victims. D. ones experiences determine his attitude toward life.60、What is the authors purpose in writing this passage?A. To define victims and creators. B. To evaluate v
59、ictims against creators.C. To explain the relationship between victims and creators.D.
