Questions1~5arebasedonthefollowingpassage:（10分）Howdidapeddlerofcheapshirtsandfishingrodsb

Questions 1~5 are based on the following passage: （10 分） How did a peddler of cheap shirts and fishing rods become the mightiest corporation in America？ The short version of Wal -Mart’s rise to glory goes something like this：in 1979 it racked up billion dollars in sales；by 1993 it did that much business in a week ；by 2001 it could do it in a day . It’s a shocking tale — one that propelled Wal -Mart from rural Arkansas，where it was founded in 1962，to the top of the Fortune 500．Sam Walton ，Wal-Mart’s founder，pushed sales growth continuously while squeezing cost s with sophisticated information technology ．He exhorted employees to sell better with the “ten -foot rule” （greet customers if they are that close ）．He was ，in other words，an early evangelist for the first commandment of today’s economy ：service rules ．Wal-Mart ，in fact ，is the first service company to rise to the top of the Fortune 500．When Fortune first published its list of the largest companies in America in 1995，Wal-Mart didn’t even exist ．That year General Motors was America’s biggest company，and in every year that followed，either GM or another mighty industrial ，Exxon，was No．1. Wal-Mart’s achievement caps a bigger economic shift — from producing goods to providing services．Manufacturing’s share of U．S．employment peaked in 1953，at 35% ．It has been declining steadily since ．In the decade that will end in 2010，the Bureau of Labor Statistics figures that goods-producing industries will create 1.3 million new jobs，compared to 20 million for service industries ．To look at it another way，today there are about four times a s many people working in service jobs as in other kinds of jobs ．And even within manufacturing，services are an increasingly large share of operations . As America got richer，consumption got more complicated ．With more income to throw around ，people started spending more on services — movies and travel，mortgages to buy houses ，insurance to protect those houses ，the occasional weekend s at a luxury hotel ．Fortune calls this a shift in the demand pattern ．Over the next few years，only three of the ten fastest-growing oc cupations （software engineers ，nurses ，and computer support ）pay middle-class salaries．The rest could be called Wal-Mart kinds of jobs — cashiers，retail assistants，food service ，and so on ．In short ，the service economy is delivering more good jobs than ever before.In 1993, W al-Mart could have a sales volume of two billion dollars in ______.A．one week B．two weeks C．one dayD．two days

Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:

Follow the following tips to reduce your stress to manageable levels! Avoid “ Must” think. Let go of the notion that you must do something in a certain way—for example, “I must get a great score on a test, or else.” This thought pattern only adds to the stress you’ll feel. Evaluate your situation coldly and analytically, and not as a “life or death” situation. Watch the Mess. Don’t study in a messy or cramped area. Clear yourself a nice, open space that’s free of distractions. Set Manageable Goals. Break large projects into smaller and doable parts and you’ll feel a positive sense of accomplishment as you finish each part. Ocean Dumping. Visualize yourself walking on a beautiful beach, carrying a sand pail. Stop at a good spot and put your worries into the pail. Drop the pail and　watch as it drifts away into the ocean. Think Good Thoughts. Create a set of positive but brief affirmations and mentally repeat them to yourself just before you fall asleep at night, and you will feel a lot more positive in the morning. Imagine　Yourself Succeeding. Close your eyes and remember a real life situation in which you did well. Imagine facing your stressful situation with the same feelings　of confidence. Use Your Bed for Sleeping, not Studying. Your mind may start to associate your bed with work, which will make it harder for you to fall asleep.Soothing Sounds. If you want to play music, keep it low in the background. Classical music especially can aid the learning process. Take a Hike, Pal. Need a study break？ Take a short, brisk walk. Clear your mind.

26.If you meet a great difficulty, how can you reduce your stress？

A.To retreat from it.

B.To imagine that you are successful.

Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage. The phrase almost completes itself; midlife crisis. It's the stage in the middle of the journey when people feel youth vanishing, their prospects narrowing and death approaching. There's only one problem with the cliche (套话). It isn't true. "In fact, there is almost no hard evidence for midlife crisis other than a few small pilot studies conducted decades ago," Barbara Hagerty writes in her new book, Life Reimagined. The bulk of the research shows that there may be a pause, or a shifting of gears in the 40 s or 50 s, but this shift "can be exciting, rather than terrifying". Barbara Hagerty looks at some of the features of people who turn midlife into a rebirth. They break routines, because "autopilot is death". They choose purpose over happiness—having a clear sense of purpose even reduces the risk of Alzheimer's disease. They give priority to relationships, as careers often recede (逐渐淡化). Life Reimagined paints a picture of middle age that is far from gloomy. Midlife seems like the second big phase of decision-making. Your identity has been formed; you've built up your resources; and now you have the chance to take the big risks precisely because your foundation is already secure. Karl Barth described midlife precisely this way. At middle age, he wrote, "the sowing is behind; now is the time to reap. The run has been taken; now is the time to leap. Preparation has been made; now is the time for the venture of the work itself." The middle-aged person, Barth continued, can see death in the distance, but moves with a "measured haste" to get big new things done while there is still time. What Barth wrote decades ago is even truer today. People are healthy and energetic longer. We have presidential candidates running for their first term in office at age 68, 69 and 74. A longer lifespan is changing the narrative structure of life itself. What could have been considered the beginning of a descent is now a potential turning point—the turning point you are most equipped to take full advantage of. 1. What does the author think of the phrase "midlife crisis"?

A、A. It has led to a lot of debate.

B、B. It is widely acknowledged.

C、C. It is no longer fashionable.

D、D. It misrepresents real life.

Passage One Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage. In late April, 33-year-old Li Yang climbed into her new car, Suzuki Alto and headed west. She “just kept going to see how far I could get.” Six days and 1,600 miles later, she arrived in Lhasa, the Tibetan capital. Exhausted and excited, she wrote an article and put it on the Internet, documenting her adventure with digital photos. For centuries such freedom of movement has been unimaginable in China. In feudal times, poverty, bad roads, and imperial edict confined people to the villages where they were born. Now all that is changing. With China’s economic development for decades, car ownership is suddenly within reach of millions of ordinary Chinese. As incomes rise, new car prices fall down quickly, and the government adds new roadways, many Chinese people think that it is enjoyable to have their own cars instead of bicycles. The increasing number of cars has launched a new cultural revolution, transforming Chinese life and society in many ways, just like what happened in America 50 years ago. The most obvious change is the traffic. Beijing’s broad streets are now filled with cars at rush hour. In Shanghai the bridges and tunnels crossing the Huangpu River witness so many cars that a cab ride from one side to the other can take more than an hour. To prevent traffic jams, the Shanghai city government auctions a limited number of new car license plates each month. Even with these restrictions, the number of cars on Chinese roads is increasing so fast it poses a grave threat to the environment and could reshape the global economics of oil. Private cars have brought about a new class of commuters, who drive to downtown office towers from spacious, modern homes in the suburbs. “I enjoy the drive,” says the manager of a Dutch food company, who takes the 30-minute-trip to his office in the center of Shanghai. He lives with his wife and infant son in a gated community with a familiar name: Long Island. “It would be probably cheaper to take a taxi every day,” he said. “But this way, I feel more comfortable and have more freedom.” 3. More and more cars have brought about a lot of changes, except ______.

A、traffic jams

B、environmental pollution

C、high price of real estate

D、a limit on new car license plates

Part I Reading Comprehension Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage. Some futurologists have assumed that the vast upsurge (剧增) of women in the workforce may portend a rejection of marriage. Many women, according to this hypothesis, would rather work than marry. The converse (反面) of this concern is that the prospects of becoming a multi-paycheck household could encourage marriages. In the past, only the earnings and financial prospects of the man counted in the marriage decision. Now, however, the earning ability of a woman can make her more attractive as a marriage partner. Data show that economic downturns tend to postpone marriage because the parties cannot afford to establish a family or are concerned about rainy days ahead. As the economy rebounds, the number of marriages also rises. Coincident with the increase in women working outside the home is the increase in divorce rates. Yet, it may be wrong to jump to any simple cause-and-effect conclusions. The impact of a wife’s work on divorce is no less cloudy than its impact on marriage decisions. The realization that she can be a good provider may increase the chances that a working wife will choose divorce over an unsatisfactory marriage. But the reverse is equally plausible. Tensions grounded in financial problems often play a key role in ending a marriage. Given high unemployment, inflationary problems, and slow growth in real earnings, a working wife can increase household income and relieve some of these pressing financial burdens. By raising a family’s standard of living, a working wife may strengthen her family’s financial and emotional stability. Psychological factors also should be considered. For example, a wife blocked from a career outside the home may feel caged in the house. She may view her only choice as seeking a divorce. On the other hand, if she can find fulfillment through work outside the home, work and marriage can go together to create a stronger and more stable union. Also, a major part of women’s inequality in marriage has been due to the fact that, in most cases, men have remained the main breadwinners. With higher earning capacity and status occupations outside of the home comes the capacity to exercise power within the family. A working wife may rob a husband of being the master of the house. Depending upon how the couple reacts to these new conditions, it could create a stronger equal partnership or it could create new insecurities. 1. The word “portend” is closest in meaning to “________”.

A、defy

B、signal

C、suffer from

D、result from

Questions 11 to I5 are based on the following passage:

Over the years, college students have stood together for what they believe in, from civil rights to anti-war policies to the more recent protests against the unequal distribution of wealth. But nowhere in history have students banned （禁 止）bottled water. Until now.

The bottled water ban, which Parted on just a few campuses, has now spread nationwide to more than 20 universities. The colleges have cither completely banned the use of plastic bottles altogether, or some have taken a more limited approach with partial bans.

Many people believe that producing and bottled water wastes money and harms the environment. They say that bottled water is unnecessary because public water supplies in the U.S. arc among the best in the world. Water fountains and reusable bottles with easy access （获取）to filling stations are a better choice.

An organization called Ban the Bottle raises awareness about the economic and environmental costs of using plastic bottles. The group claims that eight glasses of water a day costs each person 49 cents annually, while drinking from plastic containers costs $I,400 per year. Plastic bottles contain antimony—a chemical that in low doses causes depression, but in large doses can even lead to death.

The controversy over bottled or tap is not limited to the students and college administrations. The makers of bottled water see the movement as a threat. (80) They argue that plastic bottles make UP a small portion of the nation ’s total waste. It&39;s unfair to single out （单独挑出）their product when so many other items are packaged in plastic containers. Plus, water is a healthy choice compared to some sodas and juices that arc also sold at school.

Which of the following is the main idea of the passage？

A.Many universities ban or restrict the sale of bottled water.

B.Many states ban or restrict the sale of bottled water.

C.The bottled water industry is concerned about its decreasing sales.

D.Many people are opposed to the bottled water ban.

The word controversy in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to _____.A.choice

B.control

C.argument

According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE？A.All the universities have banned the sale of bottled water.

B.Plastic bottles may do harm to peopled health.

C.The purchase of soft drinks will increase.

D.Bottled is cheap and environment-friendly.

According to Ban the Bottle, drinking bottled water costs _____ dollars per year.A.8

B.20

C.49

D.1400

What does the bottled water industry use in its own defense？A.Bottled water is much leaner than tap water.

B.Students should have freedom of choice.

C.The bottles are made in a more environment-friendly way.

D.Water is healthier than some sodas and juices.
