AHow to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie (1936)Carnegie's classic self-help book counts people as diverse as great investor Warren Buffet and murder-mastermind Charles Manson. The book, which consists of a way to get ahead in one’s business or personal life, has sold more than 15 million copies since it was first published. Here's a key point of Carnegie's book: "You can't win an argument. You can't because if you lose it, you lose it; and if you win it, you lose it."I'm OK -- You're OK by Thomas Anthony Harris (1969)In the 1950s, psychiatrist Eric Berne expanded on Freud's theories of psychoanalysis to develop his own system of diagnosis (诊断)and treatment called Transactional Analysis. Harris, one of Berne's close disciples(信徒), took Berne's ideas and ran with them, promoting the methodology in his pop-psych model I'm OK -- You're OK. Harris' book became even more influential than Berne's own.The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen R. Covey (1989)Managerial magician Stephen Covey became popular after publishing his seven-motto wisdom. Offering sharp mottos like Be Proactive (Habit No. 1), Think Win-Win (No. 4), and, well, Sharpen the Saw (No. 7), the book delivers simple, memorable advice.Chicken Soup for the Soul by Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen (1993)Considered as a collection of 101 inspiring stories more than two decades ago, the book invites a mega-franchise(特许经营). Motivational speakers Canfield and Hansen took on the original project after their audience members demanded of them to collect anecdotes from their talks. Snowballing into more than 250 titles and selling more than 110 million copies in the U.S. and Canada, the series has becomea fixture of bookshelves across the world.21.

A group of young men were playing basketball in the street.Instead of lecturing the boys or sending them home, White joined in the game and started shooting baskets with the kids. A few minutes later, some more boys joined the game. Later, the police officer and the kids were having a “slam-dunk(灌篮)” . The camera on White’s police car recorded the event. The police department posted the video on Facebook. It was seen over 15 million times. Department officials praised White for the way he reacted to the complaint.Before he left the boys, White said he would come back again “with back-up.” That generally is what police officers say when they are requesting help from other officers.As the video spread, a former famous basketball star---Shaquille O’Neal became interested in what happened in Gainesville. The other day, O’Neal visited the Gainesville police and spoke with White. And then they went out to “the scene.” That is what police officers call the area where a crime happened. But of course, there was no crime. This time, White told the boys “told you I was going to bring some back-up, right? You guys ready?” And O’Neal appeared from a nearby sports vehicle. One of the kids said “Oh, my God, you’re huge!” as O’Neal, weighing over 140 kilograms and standing over 2 meters tall, walked up. O’Neal played basketball with the boys and other officers as a crowd gathered. O’Neal eventually gathered the boys together and offer ed this wisdom: “Be a leader, not a follower;” “Respect your peers and your elders;” and “You can be whatever you want to be.”24.

Basketballing the problem outCGone are the days when being a celebrity(名人) meant reaching the top of the social ladder. With the Internet as their springboard (跳板), people no longer need to be actors, sports stars or politicians to be celebrities.You may still remember the time when Furong Jiejie, or “Sister Lotus”, and Fengjie, or “Sister Phoenix”, appeared online. All of a sudden they were the talk of the town because of their crazy clothes and unusual values. Then there was Yu Xiuhua, a cerebral palsy(脑瘫) sufferer who became famous as a talented poet online. And let’s not forget the 14-year-old South Korean boy who got famous by simply broadcasting himself having dinner every day.But when the word wanghong, or “Internet celebrity”, was named one of Yaowen Jiaozi magazine’s “popular cyber words” in 2015, its meaning had changed. Those who now dominate the world of wanghong are largely famous for their heavily photoshopped selfies and the special lifestyles they advertise on socialmedia.But what wanghong offer their fans is much more than a bunch of pretty pictures. “There is a longing for the effortless and fashionable way of life,” commen ted China Youth Daily.Though their lifestyle may seem “effortless”, some wanghong take great pains to run their Taobao stores, communicate with their fans and think of ways to keep their viewership, for example.Zhang Dayi, a famous wanghong with over 4 million followers on Sina Weibo, revealed to Southernas you let down your guard, people will start to approach,” she said.28. The article mainly tells us_________.A. what wanghong do to keep their fansB. what influence the Internet has on peopleC. how wanghong become increasingly famousD. why wanghong’s meaning has changed29.The four people in Paragraph Two _________.A. are all very popular for their crazy clothesB. all have a strong will to make successC. catch on with the Internet as their toolD. become famous by simply sharing what they do every day30. Apart from pretty pictures, what do wanghong offer to their fans?A. Effortless and comfortable way of life.B. Desires to get what they want without pains.C. Ways to keep good relationship with viewers.D. Suggestions on running Taobao stores without efforts.31.What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?A. Great minds think alike.B. God helps those who help themselves.C. It never rains but it pours.D. One good turn deserves another.DMy mother finds more achievable with children as a school dinner lady rather than operating computers but some decades ago my mother was replaced by a computer. Her job was pressing buttons on an electromechanical adding machine to work out electricity bills.In my generation I am faced with just how far this growth of technology will go in replacing not just jobs but more fundamental aspects of being human.A Deloitte report published today suggests that 60% of jobs here in the North East are at high risk of being replaced by robots and artificial intelligence. Yet the implications(含义) are complex. Brynjolfsson and McAfee in The Second Machine Age argue that while some jobs will disappear, others will be created and some existing jobs will become more valuable. This situation is extremely important for education, training and financial field.But are there wider implications for spirituality? Will these intelligent machines become conscious and what might this mean for our self-understanding of what it means to be human?Here we need to be careful in dealing with the complex relationship of science and science fiction.Humans and Alex Garland's Ex Machina present an almost inevitable appearance of intelligent machines with consciousness. However, the science is still uncertain about this possibility of intelligent machines, even if the fiction raises useful questions. Equally, those who directly rule it out by claiming that human beings will always be unique need to take scientific advances seriously.As for me, I welcome intelligent machines taking away dull work, but also want to engage in the discussion of how we structure our world so that all can experience what it means to be fully human. And if the intelligent machines eventually appear as self-aware and with a capacity to love, then why should they not be loved by God?32. Faced with the intelligent machines, the author’s mother feels_________.A. more comfortable as a dinner cookB. aimless for the future lifeC. satisfied with the current situationD. hopeless with intelligent machines33. According to Brynjolfsson and McAfee, what kind of job will still exist?A. Farmer.B. News presenter.C. Security guard.D. Accountant.34. What does the underlined word “it” refer to in the fifth paragraph?A. The science of intelligent machines.B. Intelligent machines with consciousness.C. The science fiction involved useful questions.D. Appearance of human like intelligent machines.35. What is the structure of the passage?AB C D第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
