27、答题卡上。A A great loss-Shirley Temple dies at 85February 12, 2014BY DERRIK J. LANG, Associated PressShirley Temple Black, who died on February 10th at age 85, wasnt just a child star. She was THE child starthe sweet little girl whose shining smile helped illumine some of the darkest days the US has kno

28、wn during the Great Depression.Its hard today to imagine the super star Shirley was once “Americas Little Darling”. She sang and danced her way to the top of the box office in such films as Bright Eyes, Curly Top and Heidi. By 1940, she had appeared in 43 films. Temple teamed with Bill Robison in fo

29、ur movies, and their dance on the stairs in The Little Colon is still a legendary film moment.In the 1930s, her name on a movie introduction assured a packed house. She inspired dolls, dresses, disheseven a drink (alcohol-free, of course).US President Franklin D. Roosevelt once famously said that “a

30、s long as our country has Shirley Temple, we will be all right.”Unlike so many of todays child stars, Temple didnt end up with her name appearing across the headlines for bad behaviors. Instead of getting her photos on front pages or struggling with drugs and alcohol, Temple went on to a second care

31、er (生涯) in diplomacy (外交), including presidential appointments as ambassador to Ghana.She surprised a lot of people who doubted her with her grace, knowledge and eagerness to serve. In fact, her career in public service (20 years) was longer than her career in movies (19years). The role she valued m

32、ost, however, was as wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother.The world has lost a treasured Hollywood legend. But her movies will allow that little dynamic figure to continue charming audiences for a very long time.51.The word “illumine” in Paragraph l means.A. shortenB. widenC. brightenD.sw

33、eeten 52. What part did she regard as the most important in her life?A. A top movie star.B. Her family role.C.Her diplomacy career.D.A businesswoman.53. Where does this passage possibly come from?A. A film.B. A newspaper.C. Amagazine.D. A poster.BI once had my Chinese MBA students brainstorming on “

34、two-hour business plans”. I separated them into six groups and gave them an example: a restaurant chain (连锁店). The more original their idea, the better, I said. Finally, five of the six groups presented plans for restaurant chains. The sixth proposed a catering(餐饮) service. Though I admitted the tim

35、e limit had been difficult, I expressed my disappointment.My students were middle managers, financial analysts and financiers from state-owned enterprises and global companies. They were not without talent or opinions, but they had been shaped by an educational system (体制) that rarely stressed or re

36、warded critical thinking or inventiveness. The scene I just described came in different forms during my two years teaching at the school. Papers were often copied from the Web and the Harvard Business Review. Case study debates were written up and just memorized. Students often said that copying was

37、 a superior business strategy (策略), better than inventing and creating.In China, every product you can imagine has been made and sold. But so few well-developed marketing and management minds have been raised that it will be a long time before most people in the world can name a Chinese brand (品牌).W

38、ith this problem in mind, partnerships with institutions like Yale and MIT have been established. And then theres the “thousand-talent scheme”: this new government program is designed to improve technological modernization by attracting top foreign-trained scientists to the mainland with big money.

39、But there are worries about Chinas research environment. Itshardly known for producing independent thinking and openness, and even big salary offers may not be attractive enough to overcome (克服) this.At last, for China, becoming a major world creator is not just about setting up partnerships with to

40、p Western universities. Nor is it about gathering a group of well-educated people and telling them to think creatively. Its about establishing a rich learning environment for young minds. Its not that simple.54. Why does the author feel disappointed at his students?A. Because there was one group pre

41、senting a catering service.B. Because the six groups made plans for restaurant chains.C. Because all the students copied a case for the difficult topic.D. Because the students ideas were short of creativeness.55. Theunderlined word “scheme” in the fourth paragraph means .A.periodB. topicC. projectD.

42、timetable56. We can infer from the passage that .A. high pay may not solve the problem of Chinas research environmentB. the new government program aims at encouraging imaginationC. cooperation with institutions has been set up to make a Chinese brandD. China can make and sell any product all over th

43、e world57. Which is the best title of the passage?A. Reward Creative ThinkingB. How to Become a CreatorC. Establish a technicalEnvironmentD. Look for a New Way of LearningCDo you drink water thats been left sitting out overnight or even for another day? Have you noticed it tastes different?Tap water

44、 that has been left to sit out slowly begins to acquire (获得) off taste. Many people think that this is because of microorganisms. But thats not what makes old water taste not fresh. For that we can thank carbon dioxide. After about 12 hours, tap water starts to go flat as carbon dioxide in the air s

45、tarts to mix with the water in the glass, lowering itspH and giving it an off taste. But its most likely safe to drink.However, back to those microorganisms. If you use a dirty glass day after day, there is more of a chance of bacteria making themselves known; a risk that increases if you share the

46、glass with another mouth as well. But assuming (假设) you use a fresh glass every few days, you probably wont have a problem unless the glass has been touched by dirty fingers, and especially if those dirty fingers went unwashed after using the bathroom.As for plastic water bottles that have been left

47、 out in the sun or in the car, step away from the bottle, warns Dr. Kellogg Schwab, director of the Johns Hopkins University Water Institute. “A chemical called bisphenol-A, or BPA, along with other things used to make plastic can leach (过滤) into your water if the bottle heats up or sits in the sun,

48、” he explains. BPA, as you probably know, has been linked to everything from heart disease to cancer. Schwab also adds that plastic used for commercial bottled water isnt meant to be washed or refilled, so use only one time and recycle. Or dont buy them at all; use refillable water bottles instead.5

49、8. Tap water begins to acquire off taste because of.A. BPAB.carbon dioxide C.the glassD.the microorganism59.According to Paragraph 2, tap water thats been left sitting out for 12 hours.A. is still safe to drinkB. tastes better C. contains few microorganismsD. is most likely undrinkable60. What shoul

50、d we do with plastic water bottles that have been left out in the sun or in the car? A. Throw them away.B. Clean them and use them again.C. Use them after they cool down. D.Refill them with fresh water. 61. Which of the following is true about BPA? A. It is safe for people to use. B. It is a kind of

51、 new material.C. It can cause great harm to people. D. It is the main material to make plastic.DIn October 2013, Davion Only made an appeal (请求) on the Internet. He had learned that his biological mother had died not long before. “My name is Davion and Ive been in foster care (寄养照管) since I was born

52、,” he said, “but Im not giving up hope.”The heartbreaking appeal spread quickly, and Onlys foster agency received calls from more than 10,000 people. Only ended up travelling to Ohio to live with a family. But after Only got into a physical fight with one of his elder would-be brothers, the family c

53、hanged their minds.Back in Florida, Only passed through four different temporary homes over the following year, until he called Connie Going, his adoption case worker, to make a special request. Only had known Going for nearly ten years, and had asked every year if she would adopt him, but she alway

54、s hesitated. “I always believed there was a better family than us out there,” Going said in an interview. But last July, when Only called and asked again if she might adopt him, Going said something felt different. “When he asked me, my heart felt this ache and I just knew he was my son,” she said.S

55、o Going, 52, invited Only to start spending time with the rest of her family her two daughters, Sydney, 21, and Carly, 17, and a son, Taylor, 14, who she also adopted out of foster care. Eventually, after seeing how well the arrangement was working, Going, who had rented a bigger home, started adopt

56、ing Only. Only moved in with her family last December. He officially joined Goings family on April 22, 2015 when the adoption papers went through. “Today, I feel blessed and honored to have been chosen to be the parent of all my children,” Going said.62. By making the appeal, Davion Only hoped that. A. service in his foster agency would improveB. his biological mother would come to himC. he would be adopted by a familyD. a foster agency woul
