I remembered when that had been my answer. The lunchtime was ours. That brief conversation with the girl left me wondering
21、: What happened to lunch? I knew that by law I was entitled to have a lunch break. So I decided to simply start to take it and 44 the surrounding areas of my office. A few blocks away was a local art museum with free 45 . At the end of another street, I was surprised to discover a public library. Ne
22、ar the library was a small man-made pond that attracted ducks and small children with their parents, all of whom provided much 46 as they demanded to be fed.

A few suggestions are listed as follows.
27、SLEEP FOR MORE THAN EIGHT HOURS! Make sure to get at least eight hours of sleep and plenty of rest. Dont believe that you can always “catch some sleep or rest later. ” Your body cannot make up for lost sleep or rest time because it is not physiologically possible. SET STRICT FAMILY TIME! Resolve(决意)
28、 to make Saturdays and Sundays strictly for family time. And stick to this! Mondays until Fridays you make an excuse not to relax and spend time with your family because its work time, why not make a similar excuse for Saturdays and Sundays? “I cant work today because Im spending time with my family
29、. ”GET SOME FOOD IN! Make sure you get food in your stomach. Workaholics are known to be food-skippers. If you cant afford to get off your desk or from doing paperwork, have food delivered to you. Its always a good idea if you have crackers (薄脆饼) on your drawer to ease the hunger pain. CONFINE WORK!
30、 Resolve to confine work in your office. Dont bring work to your home! Keep those files in your office desk where they belong. Practice working only within your working hours. If you have an eight-to-five working schedule, stick to it. WORK UP THOSE MUSCLES! Exercise, exercise, exercise! Set aside a
31、t least an hour each day or every other day for exercise. Your body needs to be conditioned, and working non-stop isnt going to give it the proper physical conditioning it needs. Since most workaholics tend to have their behinds stuck on their chairs, its even more important that you get some exerci
32、se. MAKE A PLAN! Plan your day. Work on only one or two things at a time. Its much easier to work on something and finish it first and then move on to the next rather than do a number of things all at the same time and never finish or accomplish anything at the end of the day Make out a list of prio
33、rities (优先权). Write down things that need to be worked on immediately or are urgent, keeping the least ones at the bottom of your list. After youve done this, be guided by this list. Turning this activity into a habit will also help you manage your time better, be more organized, and accomplish more
34、. 51.

According to the passage, which of the following is not mentioned as a practical tip
35、 for a workaholic?A. Dont be food-skippers. B. Dont have your behinds stuck on your chairs. C. Make sure of time available for your family. D. Make up for lost sleep whenever possible. 53. If there were one more tip, it could be .A. LIVE TO WORK B. WORK TO LIVEC. MAKE WORK YOUR LIFE D. STOP TO ENJOY

46、.D. We all regard Mr Smith as an important figure in our company.CScientists from the University of East Anglia have identified four new man-made gases that are contributing to the damage to the ozone(臭氧) layer. Two of the gases are accumulating at a rate that is causing concern among researchers. W
47、orries over the growing ozone hole have seen the production of chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) gases restricted since the mid 1980s. But the precise origin of these new, similar substances remains a mystery.Lying in the atmosphere, the ozone layer plays a critical role in blocking harmful UV rays, which ca
48、use cancers in humans and reproductive problems in animals. Scientists from the British Antarctic Survey were the first to discover a huge “hole” in the ozone over Antarctica in 1985. The evidence quickly pointed to CFC gases, which were invented in the 1920s, and were widely used in refrigeration.
49、Extraordinarily, global action was rapidly agreed to deal with CFCs and the Montreal Protocol to limit these substances came into being in 1987. A total global ban on production came into force in 2010.Now, the newly discovered four new gases can destroy ozone and are getting into the atmosphere fro
50、m as yet unidentified sources. Three of the gases are CFCs and one is a hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC), which can also damage ozone. The research has shown that four gases were not around in the atmosphere at all until the 1960s, which suggests they are man-made. The scientists discovered the gases
51、by analyzing polar snow pack. Air from this snow is a natural archive of what was in the atmosphere up to 100 years ago. There searchers also looked at modern air samples, collected at remote Cape Grim in Tasmania. They estimate that about 74,000 tonnes of these gases have been released into the atm
52、osphere. Two of the gases are accumulating at significant rates. However, they dont know where the new gases are being released from and this should be investigated. Possible sources include chemicals for insecticide (杀虫剂)production and solvents (溶液) for cleaning electronic components. The three CFC
53、s are being destroyed very slowly in :the atmosphereso even if emissions (散发)were to stop immediately, they will still be around for many decades to come. Of the four species identified, CFC-113a seems the most worrying as there is a very small but growing emission source somewhere, maybe from agric
54、ultural insecticides. We should find it and take it out of production. 58. What do we know about the newly discovered gases?A. Some are surely produced by the development of agriculture. B. The CFCs will have a long impact once they are released.C. They gather together in the atmosphere at a medium
55、speed. D. Their amounts are not large enough to cause damage to us. 59. The underlined word “archive” in Paragraph 6 is closest to the meaning of “ ”.A. state B. resource C. phenomenon D. storeroom60. What will the scientists probably attempt to do about the gases next?A. Find out what can replace t
56、hings like insecticides and put them into use.B. Find out how they destroy ozone and get rid of those in the atmosphere. C. Find out where they are exactly from and stop them from being released. D. Find out if HCFC is more harmful than CFCs and take proper measures.DLast summer, after 16 years in t
57、he United States, I traveled to the city in Russia where I grew up. I was the first in my family to return after all those years. My mom gave me a hand-drawn map showing the location of my grandfathers tomb at the local cemetery(公墓), and she asked me to visit it.It was really important to her that I
58、 go there. My grandfather died when I was little, and she wanted me to remember him. He was still very much alive in her mind, and she wanted him to continue to live in my mind as well.So I promised that the first thing Id do when I arrived would be to visit the cemetery. However, I got caught up in
59、 work, and I had a lot of catching up to do with my childhood friends. It wasnt until a day before I was leaving that I found time to go to the cemetery.It was late in the afternoon, and right by the entrance was a lady who was selling flowers. By then she had only seven carnations left in her bucke
60、t. I bought them all, but when I reached for my wallet, I realized I didnt have the map with me. I had no idea what had happened to that map. And I had no idea where my grandfathers tomb was located.I could call my mom and ask her. But the problem was that I had already told her Id gone to the cemet
61、ery. What was I going to say?I found the main office. Fortunately it was open, and inside was a small office. Behind the counter was an old woman, and she said shed help me locate my grandfathers records.A couple of minutes later, she came back with a printout. It turned out there were 17 Abraham Pi
62、karskis on the list. I chose the two whose age I believed closely matched my grandfathers.I set off to look for them. I hoped that at least one would have a portrait(肖像) on the tombstone. This way Id know which tomb was mine.I found the first tomb and it said Abraham Pikarski on it, but there was no
63、 portrait. Only an inscription (碑铭) :From the Loving Wife and Children.I had no idea whether this was the right one, so I went off to look for the other one. I found it, too, and it was virtually indistinguishable from the first one. It said Abraham Pikarski, no portrait. The inscription was slightl
64、y different. It said:From the Grieving(伤心的) Family.I had no idea what to do. Was my family the loving one or the grieving one? I was standing there waiting, thinking maybe some sort of special feeling would come to me. Maybe Id feel some sort of close relationship with the person who was lying there
65、.I put three carnations on that tomb, and I went back to the first one. I stood there, too, for a while, and again I was hoping that Id feel something special. But it was getting late, and I had to pack for the trip back to New York, so I put three carnations on this tomb.I stood there with the last
66、 flower in my hand. Which Abraham Pikarski should it go to? Should I just throw it away? I had to come up with some sort of a solution.Then, suddenly, I knew what to do. I put that flower on that same tomb where I was standing. I thought if this is really my grandfather who is lying there, then all
67、is good, and he got the most. But if not, then let this be kind of comfort to the stranger, because somebody elses grandson came all the way from America to pay his respects.I went back to the hotel and flew home to New York the next day. I never found that map again.Mom and Dad picked me up at the
68、airport. On the way home from the airport, my mom started crying, “Im so happy that you took the time to visit your grandfathers tomb. It really means so much to me. You know when you called and told me you went there, I thought you were just saying it to make me feel good.”When I was still in the a
69、ir this morning, her cousin who lives in Russia had called and told my mother that she had just come from the cemetery and had seen my flowers there. So my mom knew that I had really done this.Should I ask her how many flowers her cousin saw? Three or four?But then I decided that maybe I should not
70、say anything at all.61. Why did the author visited his grandfathers tomb just before he returned to America?A. Because hewasoccupied with many other things. B. Because he lost the map his mother drew for him.C. Because he wasnt well familiar with the cemetery. D. Because he didnt have affection for
71、his grandfather.62. Why didnt the author turn to his mother when he couldnt find the map?A. He was able to locate grandfathers tomb. B. He couldnt make up a reasonable excuse.C.

In order for that to happen, you need to d
75、o two very simple things, put yourself in such situations that you can experience happiness there, and then find a way to savour the experience and let it sink into you. To put yourself in the position of experiencing happiness every day, Lahan Catalino, Ph.D, at the University of California, San Fr
76、ancisco, recommends an approach called “prioritizing positivity”organizing your day-to-day life on purpose so that it contains situations which naturally give rise to positive emotions. It involves both carving out time in your daily routine to do things that you really love and heavily weighing the
77、 positive emotional consequences of major life decisions, like taking a new job, and you will regularly find yourself. Then how can we find away to savour the happy experience and let it sink into you? Here is what psychologist Rick Hanson, the author of Buddhas Brain explains. Let a good fact becom
78、e a good experience. Often we go through life and some good thing happensa little thing like we checked off an item on our To Dc list, we survived another day at work, the flowers are blooming, and so forth. Hey, this is an opportunity to feel good. Dont leave the money lying on the table: recognize
79、 that this is an opportunity to let yourself truly feel good. Really enjoy this positive experience. Practice what any school teacher knows: if you want to help people learn something, make it as intense as possiblein this case, as felt in the body as possiblefor as long as possible. When sinking in
80、to this experience, sense your intention that this experience is sinking into you. Sometimes people do this through visualization, like by sensing a golden light coming into themselves or a soothing balm inside themselves. You might imagine a jewel going into the treasure chest in your heartor just
81、know that this experience is sinking into you, becoming a resource you can take with you no matter where you go. It might seem a little cliche to say“stop and smell the roses”, but its moments like those that can be stored in your happiness bank and withdrawn later. Living a happy life can be as sim
82、ple as accepting the happiness thats already around you. If you want more, its OK to go out and achieve it, but dont forget where happiness really comes from. Let 66 Come Naturally With the “Little Things”67 to let happiness come your way*Put yourself in situations 68 you experience happiness. *Find

Such a big market has led to a large demand for delivery workers, with some
90、companies offering high salaries to attract new workers. It is not uncommon to see delivery workers riding electric bikes, motorcycles and trucks through big cities in China. Most of them seem to be in a hurry, as they run red lights to deliver their goods in time. Such behavior often causes serious
91、 problems. In the first half of this year, food delivery drivers alone had 76 accidents in Shanghai, according to the Shanghai Public Security Bureau. This means that on average, there is a food delivery worker that gets hurt on the road in Shanghai every 2.5 days. On Nov. 2lst, a truck loaded with goods caught fire and was burnt to ashes, destroying over one thousand commodities(货品). 写作内容:1. 用约30个词概述上述短文的主要内容;2. 结合上述信息, 用约120 个词发表你的观点, 内容包括:(1) 快递小哥“一路狂奔”的原因和危害;(2) 就如何解决这一问题提出你的建议(至少两点).。写作要求:1. 写作过程中不能直接引用原文语句;2. 作文中不得提及有关考生个人身份的任何信息,如校名、人名等。评分标准:内容完整,语言规范, 语篇连贯, 词数适当。
