I found a chained sliding door that was wide enough for me to pass through.‎ Inside, there was a heavy smell of dead mice in the dark. After my eyes adjusted, I noticed a shaft (升降机井) that rose all the way to the top of the barn. On one side was a one-man elevator with a long rope and roller.‎ I stepped onto the platform and gave the rope a drag and the elevator began sliding up the shaft, but stopped halfway. After a brief panic attack, I noticed holes in the wall at regular intervals, forming a ladder. For reasons known only to an 11-year-old, I decided it would be better to go up than down. So, with shaking hands, I began climbing the wall.‎ After what seemed like forever, I reached the top of the shaft. I stood up, dusted myself off and found absolutely nothing of interest. It was just an empty room with a ladder leading up to the roof. I climbed all the way up here for this? Then I noticed a fire extinguisher（灭火器）,which I’d always wanted to shoot off. So this was the chance of a lifetime. I tried it, and, much to my surprise, the thing worked! It shot out a thick cloud of powder that instantly filled the room. I couldn’t breathe. I was going to choke to death, and they’d probably never even find my body.‎ Luckily, I remembered the ladder to the roof. I climbed up, popped the straw roof and saw a bright blue sky. ‎ I suddenly realized the dust and powder pouring out of the top could draw attention. So when the dust had settled, I climbed down and slipped out of the chained door. I’m not sure if I was more excited about being alive or about not being caught, but I ran all the way back home. ‎ ‎21. When the author got inside the barn, he _______.‎ A. noticed a man on the elevator B. opened the chained sliding door C. saw many dead mice in the dark D. found a shaft leading to the top ‎22. After getting out of the chained door, the author might feel _______.‎ A. inspired B. relieved C. surprised D. disappointed ‎23. From the passage, we can learn that the author was probably a boy full of _______.‎ A. passions B. dreams C. curiosity D. imagination ‎ B.‎ A glass a day keeps obesity at bay. Alcohol has always been thought to cause weight gain because of its high sugar content, but new research suggests a glass a day could form part of a diet. Looking at past studies they found that, while heavy drinkers do put on weight, those who drink in moderation can actually lose weight. A spokesman for the research team at Navarro University in Spain says, “Light to moderate alcohol intake, especially of wine, may be more likely to protect against, rather than promote, weight gain”. The International Scientific Forum on Alcohol Research reviewed the findings and agreed with most of the conclusions, particularly that current data do not clearly indicate if moderate drinking increases weight. Boston University’s Dr. Harvey Finkel found that the biologic mechanisms (生物学机制) relating alcohol to changes in body weight are not properly understood. His team pointed out the strong protective effects of moderate drinking on the risk of getting conditions like diabetes(糖尿病)，which relate to increasing obesity. Some studies suggest that even very obese people may be at lower risk of diabetes if they are moderate drinkers. The group says alcohol provides calories that are quickly absorbed into the body and are not stored in fat, and that this process could explain the differences in its effects from those of other foods. They agree that future research should be directed towards assessing the roles of different types of alcoholic drinks, taking into consideration drinking patterns and including the past tendency of participants to gain weight. For now there is little evidence that consuming small to moderate amounts of alcohol on a regular basis increases one’s risk of becoming obese. What’s more, a study three years ago suggested that resveratrol, a compound present in grapes and red wine, destroys fat cells. 24. The passage is mainly for those ______. A. who produce wine B. who are eager to lose weight C. who go on a diet D. who have a drinking habit 25. The underlined phrase “in moderation” in the first paragraph means ______. A. properly B. carefully C. excitedly D. frequently 26. Why has alcohol been thought to cause weight gain A. Because its calories are stored in fat. B. Because it is rich in sugar. C. Because it changes drinking patterns. D. Because it increases the risk of diabetes. 27. What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows A. How to do some easy experiments. ‎ B. How to prove the finding mentioned above. C. How to make wine in a healthy way. ‎ D. How to reduce the calories contained in wine.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ C.‎ There are many reasons why fast food has become so popular all over the world. Some think that fast food is such a hugely profitable business—and obviously people enjoy eating it, but the popularity of fast food has increased as our lifestyles have changed over the years.‎ The social landscape has changed immeasurably since fast food appeared in the second half of the 20th century. Back then, mums mostly stayed at home with the kids. Dads went to work, and they all got a healthy home-cooked meal at the end of the day. The lifestyle was slower. In this age, some mums still stay at home, but many are out at work, and some are single parents. If both parents are at work, they are often content just to throw something into the oven or the microwave, because after a hard and busy day, people don’t have the time to create a meal—or at least they think they don’t.‎ Fast food isn’t just limited to eating out and ordering in—it’s now so easy to get a ready meal from the supermarket. You can pick up any kind of food you can think of at most supermarkets— Chinese, Italian, Japanese or Thai. There are healthy lifestyle options, but most people, unless they are on a specific diet, tend to be seduced(引诱)by the images they see on the packaging, and the description of the meal inside.‎ The proportion of single households has increased greatly since fast food was invented. While families might make an effort to eat together and eat fresh, home-cooked food, the single lifestyle doesn’t often allow for this. Many people who live alone simply can’t be bothered to make a big effort to cook for themselves. Some don’t know how to.‎ It will take a major shift in lifestyle and cooking ability to lessen the hold that junk food has over the population and replace it with good home cooking.‎ ‎28. According to the author, what’s the most probable reason why fast food has become so popular?‎ A. People’s lifestyles have changed.‎ B. Fast food makes people’s life easy and convenient. ‎ C. Businessmen can make big profit from selling fast food.‎ D. People don，t have the time to create a meal after a hard and busy day at work. ‎ ‎29. What was the life like in the first half of the 20th century? ‎ A. Fast food was somewhere to be found.‎ B. People knew a little about fast food.‎ C. Things were cheap but life was hard. ‎ D. Most family ate a mum-cooked meal at home.‎ ‎30. What might be the author’s attitude towards the future of “home-cooked food”？‎ A. Negative. B. Optimistic. C. Uncertain. D. Not mentioned. ‎ ‎31. In which part of a magazine can we probably read this passage?‎ A. Entertainment. B. Education. C. Culture. D. Health.‎ D.‎ ‎ .‎ Nowadays, it seems that everybody wants to be a leader. Countless books about how to manage a company or influence others fill bookstores. But one needn’t be a CEO or Politician to be a leader. Former U. S. President John Adams said, “If your action inspires others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader. ‎ The key to becoming such a leader lies in. character. People follow only those whom they respect, trust and admire. What attractive traits does such a leader have? Below are five of the most important.‎ Leaders have courage The New York firefighters who ran into the burning World Trade Tower to rescue others are modem -day models of courage. Yet even more than physical courage, the everyday demands of modem life require moral courage. Insisting on doing the right thing despite pressure to act otherwise takes such courage.‎ Leaders must face fear and doubt in many of the decisions they make. Having these feelings doesn’t mean one isn’t courageous. After all ，courage is not the absence of fear. Rather ，it ’ s doing the right thing despite one ’ s fears.‎ Leaders are humble Being humble simply means having an accurate view of one ‘s own limitations. Everybody has limitations. Leaders deal with theirs by seeking help from others.‎ When leaders seek help, they recognize the skills that order other people bring to the table. And when they are successful ，leaders generously praise all who contributed to the success. Humble leaders don’t promote themselves ; they promote others,‎ Learning is a lifelong goal ，no matter one ’s position. Humble leaders are never too proud to learn from all sources of knowledge — even those under them.‎ Leaders serve others Just Christ said, “If anyone wants to be first, he must be the very last, and the servant of all.” Leaders serve others and put the needs of others before themselves. They make the good of everyone on the team a personal priority.‎ Leaders who serve others help the whole team accomplish more. Leaders do things to make sure everybody has the resources needed. "They go the extra mile to help out during a busy rush. When leaders serve, followers are also encouraged to serve each other.‎ Leaders have passion Money or success can motivate someone to show up for an activity ，But what motivates one to really put his heart into something? The answer is passion — the feeling that the activity is significant.‎ Outstanding leaders inspire others because they are motivated by passion for what they do. Leaders show the significance of routine work to others by emphasizing the big picture. They demonstrate how an activity not only benefits the individual ，but also one ’ s family ，community and entire society. Their passion ignites the passion of others.[来源:学#科#网]‎ Leaders have integrity One’s integrity can be measured by what one does when nobody is looking. Leaders practice what they preach all the time ，not just in the presence of others. Leaders also set the example for integrity. If a leader values being punctual, he arrives early-‎ Leadership is more about who you are than what you know or can do. By following these principles, you can become a better person. And that in turn will make you a better leader.‎ ‎32. Which should be the very beginning of the text?‎ A. Strong and effective leadership might have made the team more successful.‎ B. Leadership is the position of being the leader.‎ C. Leadership is not just about what you know or do — it1 s also about who you are!‎ D. Leadership refers to the set of characteristics.‎ ‎33. What does the underlined word “trait” probably mean?‎ A. A strong point that one who serves in. a special field should be skilled in.‎ B. A particular characteristic that can produce a particular type of behavior.‎ C. A physical or mental power that is needed to do something.‎ D. A clear purpose that a good leader should work with.‎ ‎34．This action “If a leader wants everyone to work hard, he works harder.” belongs to “____”‎ A. Leaders are humble B. Leaders serve others C. Leaders have passion D. Leaders have integrity ‎35. What could be the best title for the text?‎ A. A Leader’s Character B. A Leader for an Organization C. The Abilities of a Leader D.
