of Shanghai, bears 39 resemblance to the former capital of China that suffered the worst cruelty and violence of World War II.

40 Nanjing has shown a remarkable capacity for reinvention during its 2,500-year history. And in recent years, the city has moved 41 its tragic past to become a vital engine of

economic growth, thanks 42 to its position in the middle of China’s

eastern seaboard. Growth has also 43 thanks to improved ground transportation: A new bullet train linking Nanjing and Shanghai started service last year, 44 travel time between the cities from several hours to just 75 minutes, and a Beijing-Shanghai high-speed line is 45 to open later this year, with a stop in Nanjing. Within the city, two metro lines were built in the last

few years; 15 more are planned to begin service by 2030.

A

I think it was my mother who taught me the meaning of honesty. Not because she actually

was honest, but because she lied all the time. She felt that the easiest way out of any given

situation was generally the best way out. And, for her, that generally meant telling a “lit lie.” As a young child I thought it was kind of cool. And, naturally, when I would come to her with a

concern or question wondering what I should do, she generally advised me to lie.

“Mom, I told Theresa that I would go over to her house, but now I would rather go to Sue

house to play.”

“Tell Theresa you’re sick,” she would advise. And generally I did. But I didn’t seem with her lack of conscience. On many painful occasions Theresa would find out that I really went to

Sue’s house without her. These occasions taught me that it is more painful to be caught in a lie than

it is to tell the truth in the first place. I wondered how it was possible that my mother had never

learned that lesson.

I started thinking of all the lies that I’d heard her tell. I remembered the time she told

someone that her favorite restaurant had closed, because she didn’t want to see them there

anymore. Or the time she told Dad that she loved the lawn-mower he gave her for her birthday. Or

when she claimed that our phone lines had been down when she was trying to explain why she

hadn’t been in touch with a friend of hers for weeks. And what bothered me even more were all the

times she had involved me into her lies. Like the time she told my guidance counselor that I had to

miss school for exploratory surgery, when she really needed me to babysit. And it even started to

bother me when someone would call for her and she woul d ask me to tell them that she wasn’t

there.

So, I started my own personal fight against her dishonesty. When I answered the phone and it

was someone my mother didn’t want to talk to, I said, “Louise, mom is here, but she doesn

first time I did it, she punished me, but I refused to apologize. I told her that I

had decided that it was wrong to lie. And the next time it happened I did the same thing. Finally,

do, but we need to find a

she approached me and said, “I agree that lying is not the best thing to

way to be honest without being rude.” She admitted that her methods weren’t right, and I admitte that mine were a bit too extreme.

Over the past few years, the two of us have worked together to be honest—and yet kind.

Honesty should mean more than not lying. It should mean speaking the truth in kindness. Though I

started by trying to teach my mom the importance of honesty, I ended up gaining a deeper

understanding of the meaning of the term.

__________.

56. The author’s mother

A. thought white lies were not lies

B. helped the author get out of trouble with white lies

C. told the author to lie when in trouble

57. The author __________.

A. was thankful to her mother’s advice

B. felt more awkward when being caught lying

58. It can be inferred that the author’s mother

A. met her friends in the same restaurant regularly

B. didn’t get along with the author’s teachers

C. was not popular among her friends

D. wanted to have something else for her birthday

59. Finally the author and her mother agreed that __________.

A. kind-heartedness is more important than honesty

B. appropriate methods are the key to telling a good lie

C. honesty is defined as kindness as well as truthfulness

D. absolute honesty is basic to good interpersonal relationships

ws, forests and bushes, Air pollution is damaging 60% of Europe’s prime wildlife sites in meado

according to a new report.

A team of EU scientists said nitrogen emissions(氮排放) from cars, factories and farming

were threatening biodiversity. It’s the second report this week warning of the on-going risks and

threats linked to nitrogen pollution.

Nitrogen in the atmosphere is harmless in its inert(惰性的) state, but the report says reactive

forms of nitrogen, largely produced by human activity, can be a menace to the natural world.

Emissions mostly come from vehicle exhausts(排气), factories, artificial fertilizers(肥料) and

animal waste from intensive farming. The reactive nitrogen they emit to the air disrupts the

environment in two ways: It can make acidic soils too acidic to support their previous mix of species.

But primarily, because nitrogen is a fertilizer, it favors wild plants that can maximize the use of

nitrogen to help them grow.

In effect, some of the nitrogen spread to fertilize crops is carried in the atmosphere to fertilize weeds, possibly a great distance from where the chemicals were first applied.

The effects of fertilization and acidification favor common aggressive species like grasses, brambles and nettles. They harm more delicate species like mosses(苔藓), and insect-eating sundew plants.

The report said 60% of wildlife sites were now receiving a critical load of reactive nitrogen.

Stockholm Environment lead author, Dr Kevin Hicks from the University of York’s

The report’s

finitely low range of species as a Institute (SEI), told BBC News that England’s Peak District had a de

result of the reactive nitrogen that fell on the area.

“Nitrogen c reates a rather big problem that seems to me to have been given too little

responsible for protecting areas like this, but they are clearly attention,” he said. “Governments are

failing.”　

He said more research was needed to understand the knock-on effects for creatures from the changes in vegetation accidentally caused by emissions from cars, industry and farms.

At the conference, the representative s agreed “The Edinburgh Declaration on Reactive Nitrogen”. The document highlights the importance of reducing reactive nitrogen emissions to the environment, adding that the benefits of reducing nitrogen outweigh the costs of taking action.

60. The underlined word “menace” is used to express that the reactive nitrogen, largely produced

by human activity can be ___________.

A. frightening

B. threatening

C. unique

D. unusual

61. We can infer from the passage that _________.

A.it’s harmless to have reactive nitrogen existing in the atmosphere

B.reactive nitrogen emissions help aggressive species less than crops

C.the harm to those delicate species has a negative impact on biodiversity

D.reactive nitrogen can fertilize soils and keep their biodiversity

62. The team of EU scientists released the second report of nitrogen emissions this week when

__________.

A.no action was taken to stop nitrogen emission

https://www.360docs.net/doc/1a13737063.html,ernments were willing to protect areas harmed by nitrogen

C.“The Edinburgh Declaration on Reactive Nitrogen” was agreed

D.nitrogen emissions were threatening wildlife sites’ biodiversity

63. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A. Keeping Away From Nitrogen Emissions

B. Stopping Nitrogen Emissions

C. Air Pollution Damaging Europe’s Wildlife

D. Saving Europe’s Wildlife

Lots of people have hobbies. Some people collect old coins or foreign stamps; some do

needlework; others spend most of their spare time on a particular sport.

A lot of people enjoy reading. But reading tastes differ widely. Some people only read

newspapers or comics, some like reading novels, while others prefer books on astronomy, wildlife,

or technological discoveries.

If I happen to be interested in horses or precious stones, I cannot expect everyone else to

share my enthusiasm. If I watch all the sports programs on TV with great pleasure, I must put up

with the fact that other people find sports boring.

Is there nothing that interests us all? Is there nothing that concerns everyone—no matter

who they are or where they live in the world? Yes, dear Sophie, there are questions that certainly

should interest everyone. They are precisely the questions this course is about.

What is the most important thing in life? If we ask someone living on the edge of starvation,

the answer is food. If we ask someone dying of cold, the answer is warmth. If we put the same

question to someone who feels lonely and isolated, the answer will probably be the company of

other people.

But when these basic needs have been satisfied—will there still be something that everybody

needs? Philosophers think so. They believe that man cannot live by bread alone. Of course

everyone needs food. And everyone needs love and care. But there is something else—apart from

that—which everyone needs, and that is to figure out who we are and why we are here.

Being interested in why we are here is not a “casual” interest like collecting stamps. People who ask such questions are taking part in a debate that has gone on as long as man has lived on this

planet. How the universe, the earth, and life came into being is a bigger and more important

question than who won the most gold medals in the last Olympics.

68. This text is most probably taken from __________.

A. a research paper

B. a course schedule

C. a personal letter

D. a book review

69. Which of the following best states the main idea of the passage?

A. Philosophical questions are as interesting as collecting stamps.

B. Thinking about philosophical questions is a serious interest.

C. Figuring out who we are and why we are here is man’s basic needs.

D. Philosophy has universal appeal and concerns everybody in nature.

70. The author believes that __________.

A. no existing subject can interest everyone in the world

B. different people may have different interests and concerns

C. everyone has to figure out who we are and why we are here

D. people in modern society pay more attention to philosophical questions

Interviewing someone for a job is not as easy as it looks. First, as the interviewer, you

with finding the person who will not only do the job well but also fit in well with the other

employees.

You have to make an evaluation of abstract qualities that can’t be found on a résumé. Because you have to repeat the process for every potential employee, you end up asking question after

question, applicant after applicant.

Still, interviewers need to be told something: “What is your biggest weakness?” is not a question. It just isn’t.

Now, job seekers have to understand that interviewers want to find some way to know what

makes an applicant different from others. Asking questions that are seemingly impossible to answer

is one way to see who can think creatively. Then what may be a proper way to respond to such a

question?

Honesty, with a twist(新手法)

“‘What are your three strengths and three weaknesses?’ is

a classic, but not too many people

says Kenneth C. Wisnefski, founder and CEO of WebiMax, an online

know how to answer this,”　

marketing company.

“As an interviewer, we want to hear strengths that describe initiative(主动性), motivation and

dedication. The best way to respond is to include these qualities into specific ‘personal statements.’”

“Similarly, weaknesses should be positioned as a strength that can benefit the employer.

“I like to hear applicants state an exaggerated strength, and put an interestin g twist on it. An

example of this is, ‘My initiative is so strong, that sometimes I take on too many projects at a time.

This answer leads with a strength that employers want —initiative —and still acknowledges

that you’re not perfect.

Although you might consider this acknowledgement too honest, it works because it proves

you’re being honest.

Honesty, with progress

When you consider what your weaknesses are, think about how you have attempted to

overcome them. No one is perfect, so pretending that you are a perfectionist will come across as

insincere.

believes citing(引用) examples are the best Debra Davenport, author of “Career Shuffle,”

approach.

“My preferred response for this question is to tell the truth without damaging the applicant

image.” Davenport explains.

“A better response might be, ‘I’ve had some challenges with work

-life balance in the past and I

realize that a life out of balance isn’t good for me, my family or my employer. I’ve taken learn better time and project management, and I’m also committed to my overall wellness.’The answer adds some dimension to the questio n, and proves you’ve thought beyond the

answer. You’ve actually changed your behavior to address the situation, even if you haven’t

completely overcome the weakness.

Put yourself in the interviewer’s shoes

However you decide to answer, Debra Yergen, author of “Creating Job Security Resource

Guide,” recommends job seekers imagine themselves sitting on the other side of the desk.

“If you were doing the hiring, what would you be looking for? What would be your motivation

for asking certain questions? Who would you be trying to weed out? If you can empathize (共鸣)

with the interviewer, you can better understand what they want and need, and then frame your

qualifications to meet their needs for the position you seek.”

Once you consider what the goal of the question is and figure out what your honest answer is,

you’ll be able to give the best possible answer to a tricky question.

A possible version

As is shown in the first drawing, it is windy and rainy outside, and yet the flower in the

greenhouse is at its best. In the second drawing, however, things are quite different. When exposed

to the outside, the flower appears weak and fails to stand against the bad weather.

Based on the above drawings, we can see that one can hardly challenge possible difficulties if

he stays in a comfortable surrounding too long a time. Similarly, with living standards improving,

people tend to provide their children with material comfort and as a result, children are often

spoiled. They may possibly succeed with the protection of the comfort. But what if they leave the

so-called comfort? They’ll probably be destroyed by the tough reality as what happens to the

flower.

It is obvious that the education of the young is vital to the nation. Don’t let them grow the gr eenhouse all the time. If exposed to the outside surroundings, they’ll be stronger and bette prepared for their future.

W: Does it have a balcony?

M: Yes, and the view is great.

(Text 2)

W: So I turn left at the first stop light?

M: Yeah, the supermarket is on your right.

(Text 3)

W: So, what’s your new teacher like? Jeffrey, isn’t it?

M: Yeah, that’s his name. He’s alright. The only problem is he never stops talking. We never get a chance to say anything in class.

(Text 4)

M: Did you manage to get through to the States?

W: They’re on the phone right now. Line two in your office.

(Text 5)

W: Are you overweight or slim?

M: I used to be fat, but since I went on that wonder diet, I can proudly say I’m ...

M: Oh, I love it. It’s definitely my favorite place in New York.

W: Yeah? I’ve always thought it was just somewhere to catch a train.

M: No way! Have you ever been inside?

W: No, I’ve just seen it from the outside.

M: You really should. It has got that famous clock that everyone wants to meet under in the movies.

But the best thing is the ceiling.

W: The ceiling? Why?

M: Oh, it’s painted so it looks just like the sky at night. It’s beautiful.

W: Really? It’s probably the only time you can see the stars in New York City.

(Text 7)

W: Let me just read that back to you.

M: OK.

W: Um, one ham and pineapple pizza—large. And one medium tomato with extra cheese. And two orange juices.

M: Right. Oh, and better add in some garlic bread.

W: Garlic bread. OK. Delivery will be in about fifteen minutes.

M: I came across one of our old school friends the other day.

W: Oh, yeah? Who was that?

M: Miles Everson.

W: The computer boy?

M: Yeah, you remember, he was always really quiet, just spent his time with his computers? Well, turns out he now owns his own computer company. It’s been a real success and he’s now a millionaire.

W: Miles Everson a millionaire? Who would have believed it!

(Text 9)

M: So, what sort of person are we looking for?

W: Oh, well, they’d have to be reliable, of course. I don’t want to find that we are about to go out and they haven’t shown up, or they are running late or something.

M: Oh, yeah of course. That last kid—what was her name? She...

W: Oh, please, she was always late, but you have to admit she was a hard worker—always cleaned the house while we were out.

M: Well, that’s not so important as far as I’m concerned. I mean, they are being paid to look after the kids. If they clean the place up it’s a bonus, but...

W: But, no...we need to be able to trust them, of course—I mean, leaving them here in the house with the kids, you know...

M: Oh, yeah. Honesty’s definitely important.

W: Oh, but also they have to be friendly. It’s no good if the kids don’t like them.

M: True. So, who should we interview, then?

The Internet is often described as the World Wide Web but how truly global is it when millions of users have no choice but to use a Latin-based alphabet to name websites and email addresses? All of that is set to change following the decision taken by the Internet regulator organization to allow domain names to be in non-Latin scripts.

The new naming system means that websites will no longer have to include suffixes such as .com, https://www.360docs.net/doc/1a13737063.html, or .cn written in English. Instead complete web addresses will be possible in languages such as Chinese, Arabic or Korean for the first time.

These new Internationalized Domain Names will come online next year, and may prove very popular since more than half of the 1.6 billion people who use the Internet speak languages that do

not use the alphabet.

Many think the move is necessary and the morally correct thing to do. Not only is it an issue

of convenience, but it's an issue of what's right, the right to express their names in their own cultural language.

The change to the naming system is not without opposition however. Some have said that the new approach could lead to the separation of some online communities operating only within

their languages from the rest of the web. Others have claimed that it will make protection of intellectual property rights even harder than it already is.
