He moved there a few years ago, and I was eager to see his new place and meet his friends.‎ ‎ My earliest memories of my father are a tall, handsome, successful man devoted to his work and his family, but uncomfortable with his children. As a child I loved him. He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A’s and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as “successful” as he was. Whenever I went out with him on weekends, I used to struggle to think up things to say, feeling on guard.‎ ‎ On the first day of my visit, we went out with one of my father’s friends for lunch at an outdoor café. We talked along that afternoon, did some shopping, ate on the street table, and laughed over my son’s funny facial expressions. Gone was my father’s critical (挑剔的) air and strict rules. Who was this person I knew as my father, who seemed so friendly and interesting to be around? What had held him back before?‎ ‎ The next day dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood. Although our times together became easier over the years, I never felt closer to him at that moment. After so many years, I’m at last seeing another side of my father. And in so doing, I’m delighted with my new friend. My dad, in his new home in Arizona, is back to me from where he was. ‎ ‎25.

You are one of the people who keep the social temperature at such a comfortable setting. I don’t know anyone in the office who is better liked than you.‎ ‎ You can perhaps help with this. The collection of contributions towards gifts for employees’ personal-life events is becoming a little troubling. Certainly, the group sending of a gift is reasonable now and then. In the past month, however, there have been collections for two baby shower gifts, one wedding shower gift, two wedding gifts, one funeral（葬礼）remembrance, four birthday gifts, and three graduation gifts.‎ ‎ It’s not only the collected-from who are growing uncomfortable (and poor), but the collected-for feel uneasy receiving gifts from people who don’t know them outside the office, who wouldn’t even recognize their graduating children, their marrying daughters and sons, or their dead relatives.‎ ‎ This is basically a kind gesture (and one that people think well of you for), but the practice seems to have become too wide-ranging and feels improper in today’s office setting.‎ ‎ Thank you for understanding.‎ ‎29. The underlined word “contributions” probably means ________.‎ A. money B. suggestions C. reports D. understanding ‎30. Hamilton is expected to _______.‎ A. show more kindness.‎ B. discontinue the present practice - 11 -‎ C. quit being the organizer for gift giving D. know more about co-workers’ families ‎31. This is basically a letter of ________.‎ A. apology B. sympathy C. appreciation D. dissatisfaction ‎ ‎ D ‎ At one time, computers were expected largely to remove the need for paper copies of documents (文件) because they could be stored electronically. But for all the texts that are written, stored and sent electronically, a lot of them are still ending up on paper.‎ It is difficult to measure the quantity of paper used as a result of use of Internet-connected computers, although just about anyone who works in an office can tell you that when e-mail is introduced, the printers start working overtime. "I feel in my bones this revolution is causing more trees to be cut down," says Ted Smith of the earth Village Organization. ‎ Perhaps the best sign of how computer and Internet use pushes up demand for paper comes from the high-tech industry itself, which sees printing as one of its most promising new markets. Several Internet companies have been set up to help small businesses print quality documents from a computer. Early this week Hewlett-Packard Co. announced a plan to develop new technologies that will enable people to print even more so they can get a hard copy of a business document, a medical record or just a one line e-mail, even if they are nowhere near a computer. As the computer sees it, the more use of the Internet the greater demand for printers.‎ Does all this mean environmental concerns(环境问题)have been forgotten? Some activists suggest people have been led to believe that a lot of dangers to the environment have gone away. "I guess people believe that the problem is taken care of, because of recycling(回收利用) ," said Kelly Quirk, director of the Rainforest Action Network in San Francisco. Yet Quirk is hopeful that high-tech may also prove helpful. He says printers that print on both sides are growing in popularity. The action group has also found acceptable paper made from material other than wood, such as agricultural waste.‎ ‎32. The growing demand for paper in recent years is largely due to ________.‎ A. the rapid development of small business B. the opening of new markets C. the printing of high quality copies D. the increased use of the Internet ‎33. Environmentalists believe one possible way of dealing with the paper situation is ________.‎ - 11 -‎ A. to encourage printing more quality document B. to develop new printers using recycled paper C. to find new materials for making paper D. to plant more fast-growing trees ‎34. Hewlett-Packard Co. has decided to develop new technologies because ________.‎ ‎ A. people are concerned about the environment B. printers in many offices are working overtime C. small computers need more hard copies D. they see a growing market for printers ‎35. What would be the best title for the text?‎ A. Computers and Printers B. E-mail and the Business World C. Internet Revolution and Environment D. Modern Technology and New Markets 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ The jobs of the future have not been invented, 36 By helping them develop classic skills that will serve them well no matter what the future holds.  1. Curiosity  Your children need to be deeply curious. 37 Ask kids, “What ingredients (配料) can we add to make these pancakes even better next time” and then try them out.
