Ⅱ.阅读理解
A
At nine most mornings the same scene is repeated in office buildings around the world. An employee walks into the lift with his boss and apart from a mumbled(咕噜的)“good morning”, the junior is lost for words. That's an opportunity missed, say experts, who believe that such an obviously dull 30second conversation can be invaluable for those who want to climb the career (职业) ladder. “Small talk can help set up a relationship upon which you can build,”says Dusseldorf communications advisor Torsten Knobble.
As a matter of fact, the importance of small talk goes far beyond the relationship to one's boss. People who fail the art of speaking a lot without actually saying anything find it harder to cultivate relationships in the workplace, believes Ulrich Goldschmidt, director of the senior management association VDF in Essen.

“Small talk is a necessary part of networking,”he says. Actually every conversation begins and ends with small talk, according to Wolf Lasko, who has written a book on the topic and its bearing on career futures.
Not everyone is good at small talk. It takes skill to pick the right moment and the right topic with which to start a conversation. There are plenty of topics although some are not suitable for informal chat. Safe topics include holidays, the movies, music or sports. Besides, body language is part of small talk; it's not a good idea to stand around with arms folded.
Small talk is a question of closeness and distance. For a few employees, it's never a bad idea to hold back at the beginning and familiarize themselves with the company culture first.

Social media is one of the fastestgrowing industries in today's world. A study conducted by the US Pew Research Center showed that 92 percent of teenagers go online daily. The wide spread of social media has changed nearly all parts of teenagers' lives.
•Changing relationships
High school student Elly Cooper from Illinois said social media often reduces facetoface communication.“It makes inperson relationships harder because of people's attention given to their phones instead of their friends,”Cooper said.
Yet,some people believe social media has made it easier to start relationships with anyone from anywhere. Beth Kaplan from Illinois met her longdistance friend through social media. He currently lives in Scotland,but they're still able to frequently communicate with each other.“I can feel close to someone that I'm talking to via FaceTime,”Kaplan said.
•Wanting to be “liked”
The rise of social media has changed the way teenagers see themselves. The 19yearold Essena O'Neill announced on the social networking service Instagram that she was quitting social media because it made her unable to stop thinking about appearing perfect online. Negative comments also can do great damage to a teenager's selfesteem.Teenagers who get negative comments can't help but feel hurt.
•Opening new doors
However,Armin Korsos,a student from Illinois,takes advantage of the comments he receives over social media to improve his videos on the social networking site YouTube.“Social media can help people show themselves and their talents to the world in a way that has never been possible before,”Korsos said.

【解题导语】 本文主要介绍了如何让家更安全。
1.解析:考查非谓语动词。固定搭配 wait to do sth.意为“等着做某事”,符合语境。
答案:to happen
2.解析:考查介词。固定搭配 look after意为“照看”,与“while their parents go away”呼应。
答案:after
3.解析:考查冠词。break意为“休息”,是可数名词,此处表泛指,故用不定冠词修饰。
答案:a
4.解析:考查副词。修饰形容词应用副词,故用副词totally修饰形容词OK,在句中作状语。
答案:totally
5.解析:考查名词的数。surprise此处意为“意想不到的事”,是可数名词,且被a few修饰,故用复数形式。
答案:surprises
6.解析:考查定语从句。此处为非限制性定语从句,先行词为“the spare bedroom”, in which=where。
答案:which
7.解析:考查时态。in case引导的状语从句中,从句用虚拟语气,常用should+do的形式;也可以不用虚拟语气,主从句时态一致。
答案:tries/should try
8.解析:考查代词。空处作谓语动词find的宾语,因此应用宾格形式。
答案:them
9.解析:考查词性转换。修饰名词应用形容词,故用形容词dangerous在句中作定语修饰room,与the most呼应。
答案:dangerous
10.解析:考查动词语态。句子主语Knives与keep构成动宾关系,故用被动语态be kept。
答案:be kept

One possible version:
Dear John,
I am sorry to learn from Sandy that you are addicted to playing computer games.
In some way, playing computer games can help us relax. But it's not good to be addicted to it. First, it will cause you to be nearsighted. Second, it may cost you a lot of money. What's more, it will have a bad effect on your study, for you spend most time on playing computer games.
So you'd better get rid of your bad habit and there are ways to help you. When you feel like playing computer games, try doing something else. Moreover, taking up a new hobby is a nice idea. Hope you will give it up soon.
Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Hua
