17、满分40分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。A We have two daughters: Kristen is seven years old and Kelly is four. Last Sunday evening, we invited some people home for dinner. I dressed them nicely for the party, and told them that their job was to join Mommy in answering the door when the

18、 bell rang. Mommy would introduce them to the guests, and then they would take the guests coats upstairs and put them on the bed in the second bedroom. The guests arrived. I introduced my two daughters to each of them. The adults were nice and kind and said how lucky we were to have such good kids.

19、Each of the guests made a particular fuss over Kelly, the younger one, admiring her dress, herhair and her smile. They said she was a remarkable girl to be carrying coats upstairs at her age. I thought to myself that we adults usually make a big to do over the younger one because shes the one who se

20、ems more easily hurt. We do it with the best of intentions. But we seldom think of how it might affect the other child. I was a little worried that Kristen would feel she was being outshined. I was about to serve dinner when I realized that she had been missing for twenty minutes. I ran upstairs and

21、 found her in the bedroom, crying. I said, What are you doing, my dear? She turned to me with a sad expression and said, Mommy, why dont people like me the waythey like my sister? Is it because I m not pretty? Is that why they dont say nice things about me asmuch? I tried to explain to her, kissing

22、and hugging her to make her feel better. Now, whenever I visit a friends home, I make it a point to speak to the elder child first.56. The underlined expression make a big to do over (paragraph 4) means _. A. show much concern about B. have a special effect on C. list jobs to be done for D. do good

A. parents should pay more attention to the elder children B. the younger children are usually more easily hurt C. people usually like the younger children more D. adults should treat childre

25、n equallyB Being considered a leader in our society is indeed of high praise. Leadership means power, commands respect and, most important, encourages achievement. Unlike vitamin C, leadership skills cant be easily swallowed down. They must be carefully cultivated. Different from popular belief, mos

26、t good leaders are made, not born. They learn their skills in their everyday lives. But which do they develop? How do they (and how can you) get others to follow? Always give credit. Many leaders note that the most efficient way to get a good performance from others is to treat them like heroes. Giv

27、ing public credit to someone who has earned it is the best leadership technique in the world. It is also an act of generosity (慷慨) thats never forgotten. Giving credit is more effective than even the most constructive criticism (批评), which oftenhurts rather than helps. Kenneth Blanchard, the author

28、of The One-Minute Manager, agrees.Catch people doing something right! he says. Then tell everyone about it. Take informed risks. The best leaders know that taking a risk is not a thoughtless exercise,says management adviser Marilyn Machlowitz. Sky divers dont go up in an airplane without checking th

29、e parachutes (降落伞) beforehand. Because the idea of risk also carries with it the possibility of failure, many of us usually wait for others to take charge. But if you want to be a leader, you must learn to fail - and not die athousand deaths. Pick yourself up and start all over again. Encourage enth

30、usiasm. (热情) When people understand the importance of work, they lend their mental strengths, says Lee Ducat. But when they get excited about the work, all their energy gets poured into the job. Thats a great force ! Is this the best way to create excitement? Be enthusiastic yourself - You will be f

31、ollowed by everyone.60. The underlined word cultivated ( paragraph 1 ) roughly means _. A. encouraged B. compared C. examined D. developed61.

A. not be afraid of any risks B. think twice before taking risks C. try to avoid any possible failures D. know what a thoughtless exercise is 63. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A. Leadership Is of Skills an

33、d Techniques B. Leadership Is Very Important C. Not Many Can Be Leaders D. How to Be a LeaderC Have you ever been out on a boat and felt it lifted up by a wave? Or have you jumped in the water and felt the rush of energy as waves came over you.? asked Jamie Taylor of the Wave Energy Group at the Uni

34、versity of Edinburgh. There is certainly a lot of energy in waves, he said. Scientists are working to use that energy to make electricity. Most waves are created when winds blow across the ocean. The wind starts out by making little ripples (涟漪), but if they keep on blowing, those ripples get bigger

35、 and bigger and turn into waves, Taylor said. Waves are one of natures ways of picking up energy and then sending it off on a journey. When waves come toward the shore, people can set up darns to block the water and send it through a large wheel called a turbine (涡轮机). The turbine can then power an

36、electrical generator to produce electricity. The resource is huge, said Janet Swain of the Worldwatch Institute. We will never run out of wave power. Besides, wave energy does not create the same pollution as other energy sources, such as oil or coal. Oceans cover three-quarters of the Earths surfac

37、e - that would make wave power seem ideal for creating energy throughout the world, though there are some weak points yet to overcome. Swain said that wave power still costs too much money. She also said that its effects on sea animals are still unknown. What is more, wave power could affect fishing

38、 and boat traffic. Traditional sources of energy like oil and gas may someday run out. Demand for energy to power our TVs and computers, drive our cars, and heat and cool our homes is rising rapidly throughout the world, Swain said. In the future when you turn on a light, an ocean wave could be prov

39、iding the electricity!64. The writer uses the two questions at the beginning of the passage to _. A. test the readers knowledge about waves B. draw the readers attention to the topic C. show Jamie Taylors importance D. invite the readers to answer them65.

40、2) is closest in meaning to _. A. starting again B. speeding up C. gathering D. improving66. We can make better use of wave energy if we _. A. shorten its journey to thousands of homes B. build more small power stations on the oceans C. reduce the cost of turning it into electric power D. quicken th

41、e steps of producing electricity67. It can be inferred that some day we might not worry about _. A. air pollution B. our boat traffic C. our power supply D. our supply of sea fishD In 1837, the historian Carlyle made the first recorded use of the word queue (排队). He spoke of the French and their hab

42、it of standing in a queue. Forty years later Paris was the best place to wait in line. However, queuing became popular in Britain too. The Second World War was the golden age of queuing, and people joined any line in the hope that it was a queue for something to buy. This was the source of many Seco

43、nd World War jokes:Shopkeeper to customer: Excuse me, miss, are you pregnant (怀孕) ?Customer: Well, I wasnt when I joined the queue. Today, according to research in America, we (in Britain) can spend up to 5 years of our livesqueuing- as compared to twelve months looking for things we have lost. But

44、things may be changing. Many people no longer have the patience to stand in a queue. The law of the jungle (丛林) has begun to operate at bus stops, with people using their arms to push others out of the way. One way to make life easier is to introduce queue management. Customers at supermarketcheese

45、counters can now take a ticket with a number which appears on a screen when it is theirturn. And while they wait for their number, they can do a bit of shopping. In some booking offices there is also a system telling customers how long they may have to wait before they are served. One of the latest

46、technical progress is the use of an electronic scanner (电子辨认器) which can read all the contents of your shopping basket or trolley in just a few seconds. If these becomepopular, queuing in supermarkets may become a thing of the past. But some people just like queuing. One man queued all night for Har

47、rods famous January sale, and then returned home for breakfast at nine o clock the next morning without going into the shop.68. The joke in Paragraph 2 implies that the young woman _.
