AAs I stood in the return line and watched people,I became extremely impatient.My daughter had got four Barbie dolls and two identical Cabbage Patch Kids on Christmas,so I was eager to return toys that she didn’t need.Suddenly a strong idea came to me.I eyed the lady in front of me with three small girls on her leg.The family looked poor.The children were without coats,and they had dirty faces and hair.“You are ready to get out of here,aren’t you? Give her the things you want to return,” the still voice spoke.“Give them to her? These are mine.I’m not giving her my stuff,” I argued.I swallowed the urge that threatened to escape my lips when the voice spoke again.“Give her the toys.” I was familiar with the voice .I know I couldn’t argue with that voice.I sighed and tapped the lady on the shoulder.“Ma’am,” I cleared my throat.She looked at me with kind,tired eyes surrounded by wrinkles.“Yes?” she asked.“Would your little girls like to have these toys?” I pointed to my basket full of returns.“Would your children like to have them?” She was speechless,and I swore that tears were about to well up in her eyes.“You’d be doing me a favor.I can’t stand in this line in a moment longer.” “You have no idea,” she shook her head.“Youhave no idea what that means to me.”I started loading her basket as the excited girls watched.“Merry Christmas,” I said,“God bless you.” She replied as I nodded and exited the line.I didn’t want to go the Walmart that day,but I went.I didn’t want to give the lady my kid’s toys,but I did.Sometimes doing what we don’t want to do is exactly what we’re supposed to do.21.The author decided to return some of the gifts because_______.A.she wanted to get some moneyB.her daughter needed money thenC.her daughter didn’t like them at allD.all of them weren’t in need22.When the author saw the woman and her three girls,she_______.A.gladly helped themB.didn’t want to help themC.pretended not to know themD.hesitated about whether to help them23.They lady was speechless after hearing the author’s words because__________.A.she was too surprised to say anythingB.she was too moved to say anythingC.she didn’t believe the author at firstD.she was considering the author’s words24.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A.A Poor LadyB.Holiday SpiritC.Giving HappinessD.Holiday ShoppingBEvery day born a decade from now will have its genetic code(基因编码)mapped at birth, the head of the world’s leading genome sequencing(基因图谱)company has predicted.A complete DNA read – out for every newborn will be technically possible and affordable in less than five years, promising a revolution in healthcare, says Jay Flatley, the chief executive of Illumina. Only social and legal problems are likely to delay the age of “genome sequences,” or genetic profiles. By 2019 it will have become routine to map infants’ genes whe n they are born, Dr Flatly told The Times.This will open a new approach to medicine, by which conditions such as high blood pressure and heart disease can be predicted and prevented and drugs used more safely and effectively.A baby’s genome can be discovered at birth by a blood test. By examining a person’s genome, it is possible to identify raised risks of developing diseases such as cancers. Those at highrisk can then be screened more regularly, or given drugs or dietary advice to lower their chances of becoming ill.Personal genomes could also be used to ensure that patients get the medicine that is most likely to work for them and least likely to have side – effects.The development, however, will raise legal concerns about privacy and access to indiv iduals’ genetic records.“Bad things can be done with the genome. It could predict something about someone – and you could possibly hand the information to their employer or their insurance company.” said Dr Flatley.“People have to recognize that this horse is out of the barn, and that your genome probably can’t be protected, because everywhere you go you leave your genome behind. Complete genetic privacy, however, is unlikely to be possible”, he added.As the benefits become clearer, however, he believes that most people will want their genomes read and interpreted. The risk is nothing compared with the gain.24. In the first two paragraphs, the author mainly wants to tell us about__________.A. the significant progress in medicineB. the promise of a leading companyC. the information of babies’ genesD. the research of medical scientists25. Which of the following is a problem caused by this approach?A. The delaying in discovering DNA.B. The risk of developing diseases at birth.C. The side effects of medicine on patients.D. The letting out of personal genetic information.26. What does the underlined sentence “… this horse is out of the barn” mean?A. Genetic mapping technique has been widely used.B. people can’t stop genetic mapping technique advancing.C. People are eager to improve genetic mapping technique.D. Genetic mapping technique is too horrible to control.27. What’s Dr Flatley’s attitude towards t he technology?A. Tolerant.B. Conservative.C. Positive.D. Doubtful.CCleaning your plate may not help feed hungry children today,but the timeworn advice of mothers everywhere may help reduce food waste from the farm to the fork,help the environment and make it easier to feed the world’s growing population.Hard data still being collected,but experts in Chicago said about 30% to 50% of the food produced in the world goes uneaten.The average American throws away 33 pounds of food each month-about $40 worth,which means each person throws away almost 400 pounds of food.The US Department of Agriculture says that 23% of eggs and an even higher percentage of produce ends up in the trash.“We forget we have all these fresh fruits and vegetables,and at the end of the week we have to throw them away”,said Esther Gove,a mother of three young children in South Berwick,Maine.“Now,I don’t buy as much fresh produce as I used to.”But the effect of food waste arrives far beyond the kitchen.Agriculture is the world’s largest user of water,a big consumer of energy and major emitter of greenhouse gases during production.Experts say reducing waste is a simple way to cut stress on the environment and can ease pressure on farmers,who will be called on to feed an expected 9 billion people around the world in 2050,compared with nearly 7 billion today.No matter how sustainable (可持续的) farming is,if the food’s not getting eaten,it’s not sustainable and it’s not a good use of our resources. In richer nations,fruit and vegetables end up in the trash because they aren’t pretty enough to meet companies’ standards,have gone bad in a home refrigerator or aren’t eaten at a restaurant.In developing countries,much food spoils before it gets to market due to poor roads and lack of refrigeration.High food prices are another reason,since some people can’t afford the food that’s produced.28.From the first paragraph,we know that cleaning your plate__________.A.is you mother’s best advice for youB.can solve certain problems for the worldC.can help feed hungry children all over the worldD.helps meet the growing population’s needs29.The underlined word “emitter” in Paragraph 4 means________.erB.finderC.protectorD.producer30.What is a sustainable and convenient way for a customer in a restaurant?A.Ordering enough and packing the leftovers.B.Ordering more than he or she can eat.C.Ordering less and feeling hungry after leaving.D.Ordering more and leaving the untouched alone.31.Which of the following topics will follow the text?A.More examples of food waste.B.Ways to reduce food waste.C.Experts’ idea on the environment.D.Advice for food with high prices.DImagine that you’re looking at your company-issued smartphone and you notice an e-mail from Linkedln: “These companies are looking for candidates like you!” You aren’t necessarily searching for a job, but you’re always open to opportunities, so out of curiosity, you click on the link. A few minutes later your boss appears at your desk. “We’ve noticed that you’re spending more time on Linkedln lately, so I wanted to talk with you about your career and whether you’re happy here,” she says. Uh-oh.It’s an awkward scene. Attrit ion (损耗）has always been expensive for companies, but in many industries the cost of losing good workers is rising, owing to tight labor markets. Thus companies are intensifying(增强）their efforts to predict which workers are at high risk of leaving so that managers can try to stop them. Tactics (策略）range from electronic monitor to sophisticated(复杂的）analyses of employees’ social media lives.Some of this work may be a reason to let employees to quit. In general, people leave their jobs because they don’t like their boss, don’t see opportunities for promotion or growth, or are offered a higher pay; these reasons have held steady for years.New research conducted by CEB, a Washington-based technology company, looks not just at why workers quit but also at when. “We’ve learned that what really affects people is their sense of how they’re doing compared with other people in their peer group, or with where they thought they would be at a certain point in life, says Brian Kropp, who heads CEB’s HR practice. “We’ve lea rned to focus on moments that allow people to make these comparisons.”Technology also provides clues about which star employees might be eyeing the exit. Companies can tell whether employees using work computers or phones are spending time on (or even just opening e-mails from) career websites, and research shows that more firms are paying attention to these things. Large companies have also begun tracking badge swipes(浏览痕迹)---- employees’ use of an ID to enter and exit the building or the parking garage---to identify patterns that suggest a worker may be interviewing for a job.32. From the first paragraph, we can infer Linkedln is___________.A. an e-mailB. a job from the InternetC. a professional social networkD. a world-famous company33. What’s the main idea of the second paragraph?A. The cost of losing good workers is rising.B. Companies are stricter with workers than before.C. Measures have been taken to find the potential workers who want to quit.D. Finding new jobs has been a trend for most workers.34. According to the research by CEB, which of the following might be the most probable reason for workers to quit their jobs?A. They don’t like their bosses.B. Workers are always doing comparisons.C. Not seeing opportunities for promotion.D. To find a higher-paid job.35. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A. To make a review on a phenomenon.B. To tell us the leader’s concerns.C. To show a new trend in the job market.D. To stress the role of new technologies.第二节：共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分。
