He scanned even the smallest ad, hoping to find one company needing the services of a high school graduate.‎ His patience paid off for early one morning he read an ad which said: “An executive wants boy to assist him in his office. He should at least be a high school graduate.”‎ Jerry cut the ad and quickly took a bath. He put on a clean suit brushed his short hair neatly, and after asking permission from mother, he proceeded to the office which advertised the ad. When he reached the place, he saw that it was filled with young people. His heart beat faster for he felt he had a very slim chance to be selected.‎ Very soon the office became empty and Jerry found himself being briefed by the executive. He was asked to report at eight o’clock the following morning. After Jerry left the office, the manager asked the executive, “What made you select that boy who did not have a single recommendation?” “That is where you are mistaken,” explained the executive. “Before entering this office, he wiped his feet and closed the door quietly. It shows he is careful. I noticed that he stood instantly and offered his ‎ seat to an old man who entered the office. His act shows that he is kind and considerate boy. He took off his cap when he entered the room and answered my questions promptly indicating that he is polite and gentlemanly.”‎ ‎“Do you know that I purposely laid a book on the floor to find out what these applicants will do?” the executive continued. “This boy picked it up and placed it on the table while the rest stepped on it. Does this not show that this boy is orderly? While the others pushed and jostled each other in their desire to be interviewed first, this boy waited quietly instead of pushing and crowding as the rest did. I noticed, when I talked to him, that his clothes were clean. Of course, he had no letter of recommendation, but the things that he did counted more than a dozen letters of recommendation. Furthermore, I really do not believe in written recommendations. I judge a person’s character by the way he behaves spontaneously, because I believe that the training of a person will always show in whatever he does and in whatever place he is.”‎ ‎“Now, I hope you are convinced why I selected that boy among the other applicants even if he does not have a single written recommendation.”‎ ‎31. What did Jerry feel when he arrived at the office?‎ A. He was completely disappointed.‎ B. He was quite astonished by what he saw.‎ C. He was afraid he wouldn’t be admitted.‎ D. He felt empty because he didn’t have a recommendation.‎ ‎32. How can the character of a person be shown according to the executive?‎ A. By one’s recommendation. B. By his actions.‎ C. By others’ comments on him D. By his determination.‎ ‎33. What words can best describe Jerry?‎ A. Responsible and well-mannered B. Polite and strong-willed C. Ambitious and gentlemanly D. Thoughtful and spontaneous ‎34. What is the best title of the passage?‎ A. Never Judge a Book by Its Cover B. Observation Is the Best Teacher C. Seeing Is Believing D. The Best Recommendation ‎【答案】31. C 32. B 33. A 34. D ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 本文为记叙文。讲述了Jerry在众多求职者中胜出的经历,原来是主管通过观察他的自发行为来判断他的性格,从而Jerry成为没有书面推荐信而成功入职的人。‎ ‎【31题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第三段When he reached the place, he saw that it was filled with young people. His heart beat faster for he felt he had a very slim chance to be selected.可知,当他到达那里,他觉得自己被选中的机会非常渺茫。故选C。‎ ‎【32题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据executive的描述,I judge a person’s character by the way he behaves spontaneously, because I believe that the training of a person will always show in whatever he does and in whatever place he is.可知,一个人的性格可以通过根据他的自发行为来判断,故选B。‎ ‎【33题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据executive对男孩行为的描述,当他故意把一本书放在地板上,看看这些申请人会做什么的时候,这个男孩This boy 把它捡起来放在桌子上,说明他做事负责(Responsible);他一进屋主动让座给老人,脱帽回答问题,很有绅士风度,表现出他很有礼貌(well-mannered)的一面。综上,故选A。‎ ‎【34题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。本文讲述了讲述了在众多求职者中,Jerry没有书面推荐信而成功入职,可见最好的推荐就是本人的自发行为,故最佳题目应该是The Best Recommendation。故选D。‎ ‎【点睛】小题4考查主题判断,概括主题的方法是:先看首尾或各段开头再看全文找主题句,若无明显主题句,就通过关键词句来概括(如议论文中寻找表达作者观点态度的词句,记叙文寻找概括情节和中心的动词或反映人物特点的形容词)。本文讲述了讲述了在众多求职者中,Jerry没有书面推荐信而成功入职,根据文中“Of course, he had no letter of recommendation, but the things that he did counted more than a dozen letters of recommendation. Furthermore, I really do not believe in written recommendations.”即可找到关键词written recommendations。比较选项,可见最好的推荐信就是本人的自发行为,故最佳题目应该是The Best Recommendation。‎ B Welcome To International Summer School An enjoyable English language learning experience——together with organized sports, activities and excursion (外出游学) program.‎ International Summer School runs 3 different summer school centers for boys and girls aged from 8-21 years in the South of England.

We are facing today a strange new world and we are all wondering what we are going to do with it.‎ Some 2,500 years ago Greece discovered freedom. Before that there was no freedom. There were great civilizations, splendid empires, but no freedom anywhere. Egypt and Babylon were both tyrannies, one very powerful man ruling over helpless masses.‎ In Greece, in Athens, a little city in a little country, there were no helpless masses. And Athenians willingly obeyed the written laws which they themselves passed, and the unwritten, which must be obeyed if free men live together. They must show each other kindness and pity and the many qualities without which life would be very painful unless one chose to live alone in the desert. The Athenians never thought that a man was free if he could do what he wanted. A man was free if he was self-controlled. To make yourself obey what you approved was freedom. They were saved from looking at their lives as their own private affair. Each one felt responsible for the welfare of Athens, not because it was forced on him from the outside, but because the city was his pride and his safety. The essential belief of the first free government in the world was liberty for all men who could control themselves and would take responsibility for the state.‎ But discovering freedom is not like discovering computers. It cannot be discovered once for all. If people do not prize it, and work for it, it will go. Constant watch is its price. Athens changed. It was a change that took place without being noticed though it was of the extreme importance, a spiritual change which affected the whole state. It had been the Athenian’s pride and joy to give to their city. That they could get material benefits from her never entered their minds. There had to be a complete change of attitude before they could look at the city as an employer who paid her citizens for doing her work. Now instead of men giving to the state, the state was to give to them. What the people wanted ‎ was a government which would provide a comfortable life for them; and with this as the primary object, ideas of freedom and self-reliance and responsibility were neglected to the point of disappearing. Athens was more and more looked on as a cooperative business possessed of great wealth in which all citizens had a right to share.‎ Athens reached the point when the freedom she really wanted was freedom from responsibility. There could be only one result. If men insisted on being free from the burden of self-dependence and responsibility for the common good, they would cease to be free. Responsibility is the price every man must pay for freedom. It is to be had on no other terms. Athens, the Athens of Ancient Greece, refused responsibility; she reached the end of freedom and was never to have it again.‎ But, “the excellent becomes the permanent,” Aristotle said. Athens lost freedom forever, but freedom was not lost forever for the world. A great American, James Madison, referred to: “The capacity (能力) of mankind for self-government.” No doubt he had not an idea that he was speaking Greek. Athens was not in the farthest background of his mind, but once man has a great and good idea, it is never completely lost. The Digital Age cannot destroy it. Somehow in this or that man’s thought such an idea lives though unconsidered by the world of action. One can never be sure that it is not on the point of breaking out into action only sure that it will do so sometime.‎ ‎38. People believing in freedom are those who ________.‎ A. regard their life as their own business B. seek gains as their primary object C. behave within the laws and value systems D. treat others with kindness and pity ‎39. What change in attitude took place in Athens?‎ A. The Athenians refused to take their responsibility.‎ B. The Athenians no longer took pride in the city.‎ C. The Athenians benefited spiritually from the government.‎ D. The Athenians looked on the government as a business.‎ ‎40. What does the sentence “There could be only one result.” in Paragraph 5 mean?‎ A. Athens would continue to be free.‎ B. Athens would cease to have freedom.‎ C.

In fact, we perceive direct eye contact from other people not only when they look us in the eye, but also when they look at any other part of our face.‎ Shane Rogers, Oliver Guidetti, and their collaborators at Edith Cowan University in Perth, set out to determine whether people experience an ‘eye contact illusion’ during natural conversation, and if so, how strong the misperception might be. They conducted two eye-tracking studies:‎ In the first experiment, Guidetti engaged in one on one ‘getting acquainted’ conversations with 46 students, with both Guidetti and the student wearing eye-tracking glasses. In one half of the 4-minute conversations, Guidetti looked at the student’s eyes most of the time, and in the other half of the conversations, he looked at the student’s mouth most of the time. The data showed that, whereas mutual face gazing was comparable in the two participant groups, mutual eye contact was much lower. Once the conversation was over, students rated how much eye contact they believed Guidetti had made, and how much they had enjoyed the conversation. Both subject groups produced equivalently high ratings in each measure, indicating that our perception of eye contact during conversation has more to do with mutual face gazing than with actual eye contact.‎ In the second experiment, 36 pairs of students (all wearing eye-tracking goggles) participated in an ‘eye gaze guessing game,’ where participants alternated the roles of gazer and guesser for 30 experimental trials. In each trial, the gazer looked for about 2 seconds at one of five locations on the guesser’s face: eyes, mouth, nose, forehead, or either ear. Then, the guesser tried to guess the location the gazer had just looked at. The guessers’ accuracy was above chance level, suggesting that people do possess some ability to figure out the location of another person’s gaze when actively watching out for it. However, participants were slanted to guessing ‘eyes’ when unsure.‎ Based on the combined findings from both experiments, the researchers concluded that, unless ‎ people are specifically attending to gaze location, they are not very sensitive to the exact focus of their partner’s gaze upon their face during the course of natural conversation.‎ The bad news is, your perception of soul-to-soul eye contact with your romantic partner may be all in your head (your soulmate could be looking at your mouth, or even your ear, as they declare their everlasting love). But the good news is, if the act of looking at other people’s eyes makes you anxious, or if you dread speaking in front of an audience, you don’t need to sweat the small stuff. Just look in the general direction of people’s faces and it’ll feel to them like meaningful eye contact. (Feb 22th, 2019, Scientific American)‎ ‎42.

That's where unopened fan mail sent to singer Taylor Swift was found in Nashville.___46___Swift’s management said it was an accident, but dealing with piles of letters is a burden for most public figures. According to the BBC reporter Jon Kelly, at the height of his fame, Johnny Depp was said to receive up to 10,000 letters a week.___47___The dawn of the digital age in which public figures with a Twitter account can be messaged directly has made the ‎ process easier. The White House says it deals with 20,000 messages addressed to President Barack Obama each day.Some celebrities don’t want letters. In 2008, Beatles drummer Ringo Starr said that he would throw them out because he was too busy.___48___Robert Pattinson, star of theTwilightfilms, claims that he reads tonnes and tonnes of letters from fans, which takes up almost all his free time.Many artists, however, outsource(外包) the task of opening, reading and replying. Sylvia “Spanky” Taylor, 58, has run a service in California that does just that since 1987.___49___Most letters are simply declarations of affection and admiration, she says. A few ask for money. A small number contain threats which require her to contact the celebrity’s security team and law enforcement.The biggest problem for Taylor is working out how to deal with the correspondence(通信). Presents such as soft toys are sent to local hospitals, and most of the letters just get shredded and recycled.___50___For some, this is enough, according to Lynn Zubernis, an expert at West Chester University. She says that the relationship between fan and celebrity may exist only in the mind of the former but it comes from a deeply-rooted human need for community.‎ A. This incident has caused a wide public concern about how the public figures deal with the letters or mails from the fans.‎ B. She and her staff deal with up to 20,000 items of mail a month on behalf of 26 celebrities C. Accordingly, the correspondence problem has been difficult for the computer to automate.‎ D. Typically, correspondence is acknowledged by a photo with a printed “signature”.‎ E. How could he have enough time to skim through these letters one by one?‎ F. In fact, there is no alternative to deal with the problem.‎ G. Others do attempt to get through it themselves.‎ ‎【答案】46. A 47. E 48. G 49. B 50.
