He fired people who didn’t do well without giving them a second chance.‎ ‎“Watson,” said Mr Smith, “this past year your department hasn’t earned money. We’re going to drop that department. It’s finished. I’m sorry---but you’ll have to go.” “But, sir---if I just had a little more time. For the moment I need the job to keep my son at Riverside School.”‎ ‎“What’s that!” said the Boss. “Riverside! I didn’t know you had a boy there. That’s an expensive school for a man with your salary.”‎ ‎“I know, sir. But he likes it there so much! He’s a star trackman（田径运动员）and the best boxer in the school. The boys call him Champ（冠军）there.”‎ The Boss sat perfectly still for a long time---a faraway look in his eyes. Then, suddenly, he said, “We’ve got to close your department, Watson. But you’ll take over a new job in another department. It means long hours---maybe more pay. Now get out. You’re here for life.”‎ Watson got out, with surprise in his face. Then the Boss took a letter from the top drawer of his desk. It was Herbie’s last letter from Riverside School---written a few days before he died. He had read it over and over again with sick pain. The letter read:‎ I can’t say the boys here are any nicer to me than the others were. I guess it’s the same everywhere when you’re a cripple（跛脚的人）. But don’t worry about me, Dad. They’ve got a good chemistry department here. And there’s one boy here who is really great. He’s a track star and boxing champ and just tops in chemistry. The boys call him Champ. He made them stop throwing my ‎ books around. And he knocked a boy down who hit me. He is the best friend I ever had. Dad, when I grow up, I want to do something for Champ. Something big---that he won’t even know about. ‎ Your son,‎ Herbie ‎24 Watson was given a second chance because_________.‎ ‎ A. a man was needed in another department B.

The underlined word “drop” in Paragraph 2 could best be replaced by _______.‎ ‎ A. punish B. fall C. close D. sell ‎26. It can be inferred from the text that Champ is _________.‎ ‎ A. a classmate of Watson’s son B. Watson’s son ‎ C. the son of Mr Smith’s friend D. Mr Smith’s son ‎27. Watson and Mr Smith both____________.‎ ‎ A. loved their sons deeply B. were hard men ‎ C. knew Champ D. were interested in chemistry C ‎ Why do you have to turn off mobile phones when on a plane?‎ ‎ Before answering his question, I have a guilty secret to admit. My plane was preparing for take-off when a flight attendant asked the passengers to turn off their electronic devices. Far from complying, I pushed my phone deeper into my pocket.‎ ‎ It seems I am not alone. A survey found that four out of 10 US air passengers admitted that they don’t always turn off their devices on flights.‎ ‎ According to the rules, the use of electronic devices is not allowed below 3,000m, even in “flight mode”. Above this height, laptops and music players can be used, but phone must be turned off. These rules are set to avoid interference(干扰) between signals from these devices and aircraft’s system. But do these rules have any scientific basis?‎ ‎ The fear of interference comes from the fact that electronic devices connect to the Internet using radio waves. If their frequencies(频率) are close to those of the plane’s communication system, they ‎ could put the plane in danger.‎ ‎ There are no known recorded crashes that have been caused by such interference. But there is evidence that the risks should be taken seriously. A report summarising 50 cases of safety issues has been published recently. One case was summarised as follows: “An officer reports that the compass system fails to work just after take-off. When passengers are asked to ensure that all electronic devices are turned off, the system returns to normal.” In another case, a serious error was immediately corrected when a passenger turned off a DVD player. This problem re-occurred when the device was switched back on.‎ ‎ Some people argue that if there were a real risk of interference, people would not be allowed to take their electronic devices on aircraft at all. However, I’ll make sure my phone is switched off. After all, I don’t want it to be responsible for a forced landing.‎ ‎28. What does the underlined word, “complying”, in the second paragraph mean?‎ ‎ A. Applying B. Obeying C. Complaining D. Competing ‎29.What can we learn from the third and fourth paragraph?‎ A. Most US passengers don’t turn off their electronic devices when on a flight.‎ B. Passengers can turn on a laptop below the height of 3,000m.‎ C. Passengers are permitted to use a music player above the altitude of 3,000m.‎ D. Passengers are allowed to use their phones if they are in flight mode.‎ ‎30..According to the text, a plane’s communication systems ___________.‎ ‎ A. cannot operate normally if connected to the Internet ‎ B. always have the same frequencies as electronic devices ‎ C. can sometimes be affected by radio waves used by electronic devices ‎ D. communicate with the ground through electronic devices ‎31.What is the purpose of the text?‎ ‎ A. To tell readers about some airline crashes in history.‎ ‎ B. To share an unforgettable experience with readers.‎ ‎ C. To explain some mobile phone risks that people don’t know about.‎ ‎ D. To explain why we have to turn off our electronic devices on planes. ‎ D The average person learns most of the 30 000～40 000 words whose meanings he or s he recognizes by hearing them or getting familiar with them in the context or simply absorbing them without conscious effort. The best way to build a good vocabulary, therefore, is to read a great deal and to participate in a lot of good talks. There are relatively few words that we learn permanently by purposefully referring to dictionaries or keeping word lists. However, even those extra few are of value, and no one will make a mistake by working on developing a larger vocabulary. Here are some suggestions of how to do it. ‎ Read plenty of good books. When you come across a new word, or a new meaning of an old word, stop and see if you can understand it from its context. If you can't, and if you can manage without interrupting the thought of the book too much, look it up in a dictionary or ask somebody and then repeat its meaning to yourself a couple of times. If you are really conscientious(认真的), write the word and its meaning in a personal vocabulary list — preferably using it in a sentence, or you can keep a special vocabulary notebook. Go over the list from time to time. Further, try to use a new word in writing or conversation a few times over the next several days. ‎ Listen to good talks and be alert to new words you hear or to new meanings of words you already know. Then treat them just as you treat the new words you read. ‎ Learn and be alert to the parts of words: prefixes, suffixes and roots. Knowing them enables you to make intelligent guesses about the meaning of words. ‎ If you are studying a foreign language, be alert to words in that language which relate to words in English. English has inherited(继承) or borrowed much of its vocabulary of 500 000～600 000 words from Latin, Greek, French, Spanish and German. ‎ ‎32. When you meet a new word in reading, what should you do? ‎ A. Guess its meaning. B. Ask somebody. ‎ C. Look it up in a dictionary. D. All of the above. ‎ ‎33. According to this passage, the best way to build a good vocabulary is _______. ‎ ‎ A. to remember a lot B. to read a great deal ‎ C. to take part in a lot of good talks D. both B and C ‎ ‎34. The phrase “be alert to” in the third paragraph may best be replaced by “_______”. ‎ A. look at B. pay attention to C. write down D. learn by heart ‎ ‎35. In the fourth paragraph, the word “them” refers to _______. ‎ A. the parts of words B. prefixes C. suffixes D. roots ‎ 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，共10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个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。‎ ‎ ‎ How to Have a Successful Teenage Life Everyone wants to succeed in their life, don’t they? Even as a teenager, you can achieve success in your life; it really isn’t that hard. 36 ‎ ‎•Do well in school.

Doing so will help you get into a better university, which will enable you to have a bright future. 37 ‎ ‎•Do good in your community（社区）.Volunteering can not only improve your community’s status, but could make you happier.
