The job taught me a valuable lesson: to be a successful salesperson, you didn't need to be a rocket scientist—you needed to be a great listener._ 【5】___Except they are no longer women purchasing cosmetics from me; instead, they are kids who tell me which toys they would like to see designed and developed.

【題目】Some of Beijing Zoo's animals are suffering menu changes because of the bird flu spread in Asia.

Gone are the lions' and tigers' delightful “live” chicken dinners. In their menus, instead, are raw beef and mutton. While the lions and tigers go chicken less, the zoo's birds are also receiving some special and uncomfortable treatment these days. The peacocks in Befalling Safari Animal World, who used to be featured in the park and could walk around showing off their beautiful feathers, now are forced to stay in cages.

And turkeys at the Beijing Zoo—believed to be most likely to suffer from the bird flu virus have been moved out of their old home to places separate from visitors. In most cases，display areas with birds have been closed for health reasons.

Yet a good thing about the present situation is that the living conditions of the zoo's birds are being improved, with keepers keeping the display areas cleaner and not as crowded as before. Almost all zoos have done more frequent cleaning and disinfection for bird cages——measures to prevent infection.

In this special period, pigeons(鴿子)are_frowned_upon._In Beijing, many homing pigeon lovers use balconies(陽臺)to build cages for birds. Most neighbours are fed up with these cages since they can produce waste and feathers. Now the city's homing pigeon organization is asking all its members to stop letting pigeons out of their cages and keep cages clean. Still, pigeons and some other birds seem less lovely to people than before.

As a Chinese newspaper put it “Doves, are you still angels？”

【1】which of the following shows the menu changes in the Beijing Zoo?

A．The lions and tigers have “live” chicken dinners.

B．The lions and tigers eat raw beef and mutton.

C．The lions and tigers have chickens only for supper.

D．The lions and tigers have beef and mutton for part of meals.

【2】We can conclude from the text that________.

A．turkeys have been moved out of the zoo because of the bird flu virus

B．peacock shows used to be free of charge

C．people can hardly see peacock shows in the Beijing Zoo now

D．homing pigeons are safe from the bird flu virus

【3】The underlined sentence in the text means“________”．

A．pigeons receive the best care

B．people are worried about pigeons

C．people feel displeased with pigeons

D．people show no interest in pigeons

【題目】I was thirteen when my father got hurt. Looking back over the years, I sometimes wonder what I could have done differently that day. Spit twice over my shoulder when I saw the single magpie (喜鵲), maybe. But that's the thing about superstitions (迷信). You don't know how much power they have until you break them.

We lived in a dark shabby house in Bucks. Wood blocks laid over dirt on the floor. That part of England was full of cherry trees. Chalky soil．

The rice had caught in the bottom of the pot that morning at breakfast and all I could smell was burned rice. Even now when I think of that day I have the taste of burned rice in my mouth.

"I'm going to cut down the old cherry tree," my father announced.

"You've been saying that for years," said my mother lightly touching the end of her nose. Her nose ran all year long. Her arms rested on the table, a cup of tea placed between her hands, steam rising into the air. "You'll never get round to it. "

My stomach, balled into a tight little knot (結(jié)) relaxed itself．

"Millie's going to cry if you cut it down," said my younger brother, Simon, his eyes bright as a fox. "Silly Millie, silly Millie."

"Hold your noise," said my father patting Simon on the head. "And put back that butter. That's a week's ration (限額) you've got on your plate. "

"The war's over," said Simon in a low voice." We haven't had rationing for ages." Simon was right. Even sugar had come off points. However, we still occasionally received food parcels from distant cousins in Canada.

My father glared at him and then went on.

"Pigs. Burt says he'll come and help me take the tree down if he can have some of the wood."

"No," I said springing to my feet." You can't do it. That's my tree. Always has been. Always will be. I won't let you."

Tom, took a piece of toast, watching my reaction. My older brother, he knew what the tree meant to me．

"Now then, Millie," said my father softening his face. "That tree's wild. It's in the way."

【1】The magpie is mentioned to show that _____.

A. Millie got much power on seeing the bird

B. things seemed to go wrong from the beginning

C. the bird caused Father's getting hurt that day

D. but for the bird Millie would have done differently

【2】According to the passage, how many kids does the family have at least?

A. 6. B. 5. C. 4. D. 3.

A. had a terrible stomachache that morning

B. felt like crying on hearing her brother's words

C. was afraid of her cherry tree being cut down

D. hated to hear her mother saying that way

【4】From the passage, we can infer that _____.

A. there were already plenty of food supplies

B. Mother showed little interest in the cherry tree

C. the tree was a great danger to people walking by

D. the tree was finally cut down by father that day

【5】When the author calls up the day, she feels _____.

【題目】 (2010·全國卷Ⅱ)When you're lying on the white sands of the Mexican Riviera, the stresses(壓力)of the world seem a million miles away. Hey, stop! This is no vacation—you have to finish something!

Here lies the problem for travel writer and food critic(評論家)Edie Jarolim. “I always loved traveling and always liked to eat, but it never occurred to me that I could make money doing both of those things，” Jarolim said.

Now as a travel writer, she spends onethird of her year on the road. The rest of the time is spent completing her tasks and writing reviews of restaurants at home in Tucson, Arizona.

【題目】Slang is a popular, less official and often very current form of language. It is an important part of a living language and is constantly changing as language changes. Slang is often playful, direct and sometimes less respectful than the more official and traditional version of language. So now I'm going to lay it on you! To “l(fā)ay it on” is American slang for “to tell” or “to explain.”

Slang can take many forms. For example, slang can be local to one city or area. In Washington, D.C. there is a whole set of slang to describe politics and business in the city. For example, the term POTUS stands for President of the United States. POTUS can often be found with his wife, FLOTUS, the first lady of the United States. “Inside the Beltway” is a popular expression that describes the area of Washington, D.C. The beltway is the large highway that circles the city.

The Internet has helped create a whole new kind of computer-related slang. An “angry fruit salad” is an expression that describes a website with too many bright colors. “Netiquette” is slang for correct behavior when using the Internet.

Young people often develop the latest slang. For example, to say Special English “rocks” or is “phat” means Special English is really great. A “kegger” is a party where beer is served. If something is “wack”, it is wild and crazy.

Different professions often have their own slang as well. For example, medical workers might refer to a complaining patient as a “gomer”. A "touh stick" is someone whose veins are difficult to find when he or she needs to have blood taken.

No matter how well you speak English, there are always new and interesting slang words to discover. There are entire dictionaries for describing slang. Many experts do not even agree on what is and what is not slang. Often slang words later become a part of officially accepted language. Official or not, slang is an energetic and exciting part of the American language that continues to change.

【1】Which of the following is NOT true for slang compared with the official language?

A. Playful B. Direct

C. Less respectful D. More official

【2】It can be inferred from the passage that______.

A. if you speak English very well, there is no problem for you to understand English speakers

B. slang words are created by people in their daily life

C. English speakers are clear whether it is a slang

D. slang words will never be accepted as official language

【3】Which of the following is not mentioned to have helped create slang?

A. The internet. B. Young people.

C. President of the United States. D. Professions

【4】Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?

A. What is slang? B. Slang is popular.

C. Who creates slang? D. Slang is a language.
