Now there are deaf company directors ，doctors and PhD students. Trans1ators shou1d be invisib1e ，but sign 1anguage interpreters must be seen to be heard.

An Overnight SuccessCTwo hundred years ago the English poet William Wordsworth wrote The Daffodils (水 仙花)， a poem that expresses a basic spirit of early English Romanticism.What makes this poem an example of Romantic thinking? It isnt just that Wordsworth chooses to write about a natural scene; it is the way he describes the scene. For him ，nature is more than a mixture of scenery ，colors and plants. 1t is a living force that feels joy and sadness ，shares human pain and even tries to educate us human beings by showing us thebeauty of life.Wordsworths home ，Dove Cottage ，is now one of the most popular destinations in the Lake District. You can go on a tour of the garden which William planted with flowers. He always said that if he hadn t been a poet ，he would have been a wonderful gardener ，says Allan King of the Wordsworth Trust.1t is near the lake that Wordsworth once discovered the daffodils. You walk along from tree to tree ，hardly daring to breathe ，because you are walking in the footprints of William from two centuries ago. The first group of daffodils appears ，but they aren t tall yellow ones proudly swinging in the gentle wind. They re tiny wild daffodils ，most of them still green and unopened ，in groups of six or seven. They re grouped aroundindividual trees rather than collecting together.And then you realize this is what delighted Wordsworth: group after group of the things ，spread out left and right ，but coming together in your sight so that they form a beautiful ，pale-yellow carpet. What you re seeing at last is nature transformed byhuman sight and imagination.28. What is W ordsworth s point of view about nature?A. Nature can ta1k to peop1e.B. Nature is full of wonders.C. Nature has human-1ike emotions.D. Nature is a mixture of natura1 beings.29. What can we know about the daHodi1s near the 1ake?A. They are of the same size and co1or.B. They spread out in groups around.C. They are fully open in the gent1e wind.D. They are grown in a 1arge area.30. We can 1earn from the text that Dove CottageA. is designed by William WordsworthB. has a wide range of rare flowers in itC. receives a 10t of visitors every yearD. is famous for its wonderfu1 view31. Why does The Daffodils stand out as an examp1e of Romantic thinking?A. The description of the daHodi1s is true to 1ife.B. The daHodi1s are described with imagination.C. The daHodi1s are a respresentive of nature.D. Wordsworth writes the poem naturally.D1 READ most1y fiction before 1 was introduced to CaMalco1m G1adwells work.In his TED ta1k called Choice ，Happiness ，and Spaghetti Sauce (意大利面酱)， he used the examp1es of Pepsi and spaghetti sauce to argue that giving peop1e choices makes them happy. If 1 had on1y heard his conclusion statement and missed the evidencethat he emp1oyed ，1 wou1d have been wondering how he cou1d argue such an interesting point. But he structured his argument 1ike a detective story ，with each puzz1e piececontributing to the conclusion.Fascinated ，1 borrowed his book Outliers: The Story of Success from the 1ibrary. Each chapter had its own story and argument ，and all of the arguments were aboutfactors that contributed to an individua1 s success in the world.The depth of his research was amazing. In the first chapter ，he ana1yzed the reasons behind the crash of Korean Air F1ight 801 in 1997 ，which killed more than 220peop1e. The disaster took p1ace partly because the co-pi1ot didnt point out the mistakesthat the pilot was making. In South Korea ，it s disrespectful to disagree with higher ups even if they are doing something wrong.Perhaps most interesting of all ，Gladwell explained why Asians are so good at math. He said Asians get a head start when they learn how to count because theirlanguage has fewer syllables (音节) and makes numbers easier to remembe r.But Gladwell is mostly interested in answering my favorite question ，Why? And that s exactly why 1 love his works. After reading Outliers: The Story of Success andother books like it ，1 found myself questioning my commonly-accepted beliefs muchmore often. After all ，why should we take anything for granted?32. Why does the author write this article?A. To promote some of Gladwell 气 books.B. To introduce Gladwell and his books.c. To show how Gladwell did research for his books.D. To explain why he enjoys Gladwell s books.33. How did the author feel about Gladwell s TED talk?A. Surprising but persuasive.C. Interesting but doubtfu l.34. What can we know from the passage?B. Refreshing but puzzling.D. Funny but conclusive.A. Eating spaghetti sauce can make you happy.B. Carelessness caused the Korean aircrash in 1997.C. Fewer syllables give Asians an advantage in learning math.D. The Story of Success is about Gladwell s personal success.35. What really makes the author fall in love with Gladwell s works?A. His strong arguments.C. His amazing research.第三节(共 5 小题;每小题 2 分，满分 10 分)B. His detective-like stories.D. His questioning spirit.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。选项中有两项为 多余选项。With spring almost upon ，families are already starting to plan vacations.
