But, day after day, her plants were tomato-less while all of her neighbors who had also put out tomato plants were already enjoying the fruit of their labor.Frustrated, Mertie gave in and went to the market to search fresh tomatoes. While paying, Mertie told the farmer her troubles. The farmer paused to think for a moment and then asked, “Well, what kind of tomatoes did you plant?”“I think they were called Big Boy,” Mertie remembered.“Well theres your problem,” the farmer explained. “Big Boy and Better Boy tomatoes have a 95-day growing period whereas regular tomato plants produce fruit in as few as 70 daysyou just have to wait a little longer for the Big Boys.”With that new knowledge, Mertie went home with excitement, knowing they would be worth the wait.Thinking about my sisters gardening experience, I had to smile. She just didnt know that Big Boy tomatoes took longer-neither did I-but once she discovered that information, she was no longer discouraged and upset about the lack of tomatoes on her plants. Instead, she was encouraged and excited to see them a few weeks later.It makes me wonder how many of us have “Big Boy” dreams in our hearts, yet we just dont realize that they are of the “Big Boy” variety so we are discouraged and worn out with the waiting process. Instead of waiting with excitement, we give up on our dreams and figure we must have done something wrong to stop them from coming to pass. Frustrated, we see other peoples dreams coming true, and we wonder why ours havent yet been achieved.4. What is not mentioned in the passage when growing tomato plants?A. Using suitable fertilizer. B. Keeping them well apart.C. Watering them regularly. D. Controlling pests on them.5. Why did Merties tomato plants fail to produce at the expected time?A. Because they were destroyed by her neighbors.B. Because she grew the wrong kind of tomatoes.C. Because she didnt manage the garden well.D. Because they required more time to produce.6. What does the author compare tomatoes to in the text?A. Goals. B. Experiences.C. Time. D. Imagination.7. What does the text intend to show us?A. Its better late than never.B. A bad beginning makes a bad ending.C. Success sometimes needs a little patience.D. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.【答案】4. C 5. D 6. A 7. C【解析】本文是一篇故事。通过妹妹种西红柿的故事告诉我们要实现梦想，有时需要耐心等待。【4题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段Mertie researched exactly how far apart to space her tomato plants; what kind of fertilizer to use; how to keep away the bugs, etc.可知Mertie给她种的西红柿分苗、施肥和控制害虫。没有提到浇水，故选C.【5题详解】细节理解题。根据农民对Mertie 说的Big Boy and Better Boy tomatoes have a 95-day growing period whereas regular tomato plants produce fruit in as few as 70 daysyou just have to wait a little longer for the Big Boys.可知Mertie 种植的西红柿品种Big Boy比一般西红柿生长需要的时间长，所以还需要一段时间才能成熟。故选D.【6题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段中It makes me wonder how many of us have “Big Boy” dreams in our hearts, Instead of waiting with excitement, we give up on our dreams andwe see other peoples dreams coming true, 可知我们内心有许多梦想，但没有意识到梦想的变化，在等待过程中我们可能遇到挫折后放弃梦想。作者在文中把西红柿比作了梦想和目标，故选A.【7题详解】推理判断题。妹妹精心种西红柿，但别人的西红柿成熟时自己的不行，当想放弃时才知道西红柿品种不一样，成熟时间不一样。作者通过这件事告诉我们要实现梦想，有时需要耐心等待。故选C.COne of the biggest problems when we are talking is the awkward silence. Encountering this situation is so uncomfortable that you would avoid meeting new people in the first place. In the past, I struggled with this and I even thought it had to do with my DNA or something But later I learned that once you know how to keep those words flowing, you can meet and talk to anyone you like, which helps create great possibilities for friendship, fun and shared activities that you would otherwise have missed out on.After studying this in depth, I had different opinions and found that one of these common behaviors is the habit of filtering (过滤)-holding back from saying something until youve “checked” to make sure that what youre about to say is cool, impressive and interesting. Another problem is not learning to get in the mood for conversation. If you dont know how to change from subjects, then it can take a lot of time to warm up.It is the reflex (习惯性思维) that allows you to say whatever goes on in your mind. Its fun to realize that youre allowed to say whatever is on your mind. As long as you dont say anything that could land you in jail (监狱).All of the “Oh! Thats interesting” “Hmm, Ive never heard of that” “Hmm, cool!” expressions are reactionary (保守的) bits of conversation that prove to the other person that youre really listening. This works 99% of the time. So, if you show some interest, theyll hang around and want to talk to you even more.Everyone knows that stories juice-up conversations, but most people only talk about stories of their own lives. When someone mentions something related to any of them, just tell the story, even if its not from your life. The more interesting, stranger or more frightening they are, the harder they are to forget.8. If people can deal with the awkward silence, they can .A. train their working skill B. improve their life qualityC. enrich their social life D. establish their working relationship9. When talking with others, we should .A. feel nervous B. think twiceC. be free to express D. avoid breaking in10. According to the passage, what do the speakers care much about?A. The attractive topics of conversation.B. The atmosphere of the conversation.C. The listeners experiences and tastes.D. The listeners curiosity and concern.11. What does the underlined part “juice-up conversations” mean?A. making conversations more boring B. making conversations livelierC. making conversations smoother D. making conversations more relaxing【答案】8. C 9. C 10. D 11. B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，为了避免谈话时陷入沉默，我们要表达内心所想，谈论听者感兴趣的话题和生动有趣的故事。【8题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段But later I learned that once you know how to keep those words flowing, you can meet and talk to anyone you like, which helps create great possibilities for friendship, fun and shared activities可知如果在谈话时能打破尴尬的沉默，知道说什么，怎么说，就能为友谊，乐趣和共享活动创造巨大的可能性，就能丰富社交生活。故选C.【9题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段It is the reflex (习惯性思维) that allows you to say whatever goes on in your mind. Its fun to realize that youre allowed to say whatever is on your mind.可知习惯性思维让我们表达我们内心所想，意识到你可以说出你心里想说的话，是很有趣的。所以在和别人交流时我们应该自由表达。故选C.【10题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段All of the “Oh! Thats interesting” “Hmm, Ive never heard of that” “Hmm, cool!” expressions are reactionary (保守的) bits of conversation that prove to the other person that youre really listening.和if you show some interest, theyll hang around and want to talk to you even more.听者的赞美之词和他们有兴趣想了解更多的好奇心和关注，是说者最关心的。故选D.【11题详解】猜测词义题。根据本段最后The more interesting, stranger or more frightening they are, the harder they are to forget.可知故事越有趣或越惊险，就越吸引人，听者就越难忘记，这说明了故事在谈话中的重要性。划线词语所在的句子指每个人都知道故事会让对话变得生动有趣，“juice-up conversations”指让对话变得生动有趣，与B项同义。故选B.【点睛】本文的推理判断题主要是推测文章的观点或结论。小题1要求推断如果人们在谈话时能打破尴尬沉默的结果。根据第一段But later I learned that once you know how to keep those words flowing, you can meet and talk to anyone you like, which helps create great possibilities for friendship, fun and shared activities可知如果在谈话时能打破尴尬的沉默，知道说什么，怎么说，就能为友谊，乐趣和共享活动创造巨大的可能性，就能丰富社交生活。小题2要求推断与人交流时应该怎样做。根据第三段It is the reflex (习惯性思维) that allows you to say whatever goes on in your mind. Its fun to realize that youre allowed to say whatever is on your mind.可知习惯性思维让我们表达我们内心所想，所以在和别人交流时我们应该自由表达。小题3要求推断谈话时说者最关心的是什么。根据第四段All of the “Oh! Thats interesting” “Hmm, Ive never heard of that” “Hmm, cool!” expressions are reactionary (保守的) bits of conversation that prove to the other person that youre really listening.和if you show some interest, theyll hang around and want to talk to you even more.听者的赞美之词和他们有兴趣想了解更多的好奇心和关注，是说者最关心的。DForcing waiters and waitresses to survive on tips from customers rather than normal wages is a pointless, crude, and unique American custom that, in the past several years, a handful of progressive restaurant owners have attempted to do away with. Danny Meyer, CEO of Union Square Hospitality Group, is about to join their ranks and has announced that he plans to gradually stop tipping at the companys 13 restaurants.What, exactly, is wrong with tipping? As Brian Palmer has explained, more or less its everything. To start, leaving a waiters pay in the hands of customers has a feeling of classism (阶级歧视)And in theory, handing restaurant customers the power to tip is at least supposed to motivate better service. This fails in practice because humans turn out to be pretty arbitrary (随意的) about their tipping behavior. Research has shown that the amount diners tip has very little to do with their level of satisfaction. All of this doesnt encourage waiters and waitresses to do anything but turn over as many tables as possible.Tipping is also very unfair to kitchen staff. The law allows restaurants to divide tips between front-of-the-house workers like waiters, hosts, hostesses, and bartenders (调酒师), but not cooks. This creates a system in which the people serving the food in a restaurant can earn more than the people preparing itOne of the most fascinating parts of Meyers move is that, unlike some restaurant owners who have taken an anti-tipping stand, he wont simply add a standard extra charge to diners bills. Rather, Union Square Hospitality Group means to raise menu prices enough to fully cover the cost of a meal. If Meyer manages to move away from tipping at all without hurting his profits, it would almost certainly set the stage for others to follow suit.12. Whats Danny Meyers attitude towards stopping tipping?A. Negative. B. Supportive.C. Objective. D. Doubtful.13. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?A. Tipping may disturb the restaurants management.B. Tipping will guarantee diners high quality service.C. Tipping can arouse the staffs enthusiasm for workD. Tipping will bring customers a sense of satisfaction.14. What can we know about Union Square Hospitality group?A. Brian Palmer is in charge of it now.B. Its cooks earn much more than its servers.C. Restaurant tipping has been totally banned there.D. Diners will be charged more for the dishes there.15. What is the topic of the passage?A. Restaurants getting rid of tipping.B. Difficulties that restaurants are faced with.C. The popularity of no-tipping restaurants.D. Tips on running restaurants successfully.【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. A【解析】文章报道了Unio
