10、，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。AA store that sells husbands has just opened in Ottawa where a woman may go to choose a husband from many men.The store is comprised of 6 floors and the men increase in positive attributes（品质，特点）as the shopper goes up the flights. There is, however, a catch（陷阱）. As you open the door to

11、any floor you may choose a man from that floor, but if you go up a floor, you cannot go back down except to exit the building.So a woman goes to the shopping center to find a husband. On the first floor the sign on the door reads: Floor 1These men have jobs. The woman reads the sign and says to hers

12、elf, “Well, thats better than my last boyfriend, but I wonder whats further up?”So up she goes. The second floor sign reads: Floor 2These men have jobs and love kids. The woman remarks to herself, “Thats great, but I wonder whats further up?” And up she goes again. The third floor sign reads: Floor

13、3These men have jobs, love kids and are extremely good-looking. “Hmm, better.” The fourth floor sign reads: Floor 4These men have jobs, love kids, are extremely good-looking and help with the housework. “Wow!” exclaims the woman, “Very tempting. But, there must be more, further up!”And again she hea

14、ds up another flight. The fifth floor sign reads: Floor 5These men have jobs, love kids, are extremely good-looking, help with the housework and have a strong romantic character. “Oh, mercy me! But just thinkwhat must be awaiting me further on?”So up to the sixth floor she goes. The sixth floor sign

15、 reads: Floor 6 You are visitor 3, 456, 789,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. Thank you for shopping Husband Mart and have a nice day.21. Women tend to go up the floor until they reach the top floor because _.A. they think even better husbands may be upstairs B. they know the catch

Ill just stare at my shoes a little while longer to pass the time. Wi

18、sh Id brought a book. Hang on, though, what if Ive got the wrong day? The wrong place? Have the clocks gone back? No, damn it, Im off home. Whoever Im waiting for clearly lives in a different time zone from me. I am always 10 minutes early, so if youre 10 minutes late, Ive been foot-tapping for 20 m

19、inutes. I know its not fair to hold the first 10 against you, but I just cant help myself. I never wait more than 20 minutes beyond the meeting time we decided upon, not for anyone, ever. OK, thats not strictly true. I have, on occasion, hung around anxiously and heartbrokenly for up to an hour, but

20、 the bitter anger that follows is never a pretty sight. If youve made me wait that long, you will wish you hadnt bothered turning up at all. How come some people are always late and some are always on time? If I can manage to be punctual(准时的), why cant you? Because I left a hot cup of coffee at home

21、 while you sat down to roll another cigarette. Because I spilled jam on my pants and quickly wiped it off whereas you took time to change your whole outfit. Because I switched off midway through a TV series, but you had to ride out the end, didnt you? And dont even think about blaming the traffic. H

22、ow do you think I got here? By flying carpet? Only carelessness or arrogance (傲慢)can explain a habit of lateness. Some people are always late because they cant make realistic calculations about how long it takes to do things. There are 60 seconds in a minute and 60 minutes in an hour. Just deal with

23、 it. Painful as it may be, you have to accept that, as youve agreed to meet at eight and its now a quarter to, you dont have time to phone your girlfriend. Much worse, though, are those with big egos(自我). Being late is just rude. Being late on purpose really means that you hate the person you are me

24、eting. Of course, there are some perfectly lovely latecomers out there. I just never wait long enough to find out. 24. Which of the following words best describes how the author feels in the first paragraph? A. Thankful. B. Curious. C. Anxious. D. Joyful. 25. What does the author think contributes t

25、o people always being late?a. Their big egos. b. Traffic jams. c. Their carelessness. d. Being picky when choosing clothes. e. Their realistic calculations of how long it takes to do things. A. a, c B. b, d, e C. c, d, e D. a, b26. We can infer from the article that the author _. A. has missed lots

26、of meetings B. has a strong preference for good timekeepingC. has trouble getting along with others D. is tolerant of people being late27. According to the author, people should _. A. be patient when waiting for a latecomerB. keep in mind that being late is rude and selfishC. always arrive 10 minute

27、s early for an appointmentD. ask people around them to remind them on an appointmentCA scientist turns out to be able to see the future by offering each of four-year-olds a piece of candy and watching how he or she deals with it. Some children reach eagerly for the treat they see. Some last a few mi

28、nutes before they give in. But others are determined to wait until the last moment. By the time the children reach high school, something remarkable has happened. A survey found that those who as four-year-olds had enough self-control to hold out generally grew up to be more popular, adventurous, co

29、nfident and dependable. The children who gave in to temptation(诱惑) early were more likely to be lonely, easily frustrated and inflexible（固守己见的）.Actually, the ability to delay reward is a sign of emotional intelligence which doesnt show up on an IQ test. The hardware of the brain and the software of

30、the mind have long been scientists concerns. But brain theory cant explain what we wonder about most, like the question why some people remain upbeat in the face of troubles that would sink a less resistant soul. Here comes the theory of Daniel Goleman, writer of Emotional Intelligence: when it come

31、s to predicting peoples success, brain ability as measured by IQ may actually matter less than the qualities of mind once thought of as “character”. EQ is not the opposite of IQ. What researchers have been trying to understand is how they work together; how ones ability to handle stress, for instanc

32、e, affects the ability to concentrate and put intelligence to use. Among the ingredients for success, researchers now generally agree that IQ accounts for about 20%; the rest depends on everything from social class to luck. While many researchers in this relatively new field are glad to see emotiona

33、l issues finally taken seriously, some few fear EQ invites misuse. 28. The experiment with the four-year-olds makes it clear that . A. the age of 4 is a proper time for scientific experiment B. the ability of self-control plays a role in personal success C. emotional intelligence wont show up until

34、adolescenceD. candy can be used to measure a persons emotional intelligence 29. Which of the following is TRUE of EQ and IQ according to the text? A. Scientists are trying to discover the way in which EQ and IQ work together. B. There is no link between EQ and IQ. C. The higher a persons IQ is, the

35、higher his or her EQ is.D. Some people can be blessed with lots of both, but some with little of either. 30. The underlined word “upbeat” in Paragraph 4 probably means . A. kind B. floating C. optimistic D. excited 31. What is most likely to be written in the paragraph that follows? A. Information a

36、bout famous people with high EQ. B. Some reasons why EQ is a relatively new field. C. Strong demand for basic emotional education. D. Examples showing the opposite voice about EQ. DMany environmentalists and entrepreneurs are looking for ideas on how to “capture gold” that is, how to collect and con

37、vert plastic waste into new plastic or fuel.OK, describing plastic waste as potential “gold” may be overdoing it. But the campaigners say that publicizing the concept that plastic is worth something may help reduce the amount of waste that ends up in oceans and the bellies(肚子) of sea creatures. To t

38、hat end, they have set up a competition inviting members of the public to submit ideas online. Organizers will take the best ones to the Rio+20 Earth Summit (峰会) in Rio de Janeiro next month, where they are planning a daylong side event called Plasticity focusing on issues related to plastic polluti

39、on. The plastic waste problem is gaining broader attention as environmentalists, scientists, manufacturers and the public become more aware of the sheer volume of(大量的) the stuff that finds its way into the sea. More than 260 million metric tons of plastic are now produced per year, according to the

40、trade association PlasticsEurope. The majority of that is not recycled. Most of it ends up in landfill, and a significant amount ends up as litter on land, in rivers and in the oceans. Technological advances have made clear that it is possible to reuse much of this plastic by turning it into fuel or

41、 new products. Yet the companies that have come up with such solutions have not achieved the economies of scale that would allow them to function profitably. Insufficient waste-collection and recycling systems in most countries also stand in the way of “ trash to cash” concept, said Doug Woodring, a

42、n environmental entrepreneur in Hong Kong who is among the organizer of the Plasticity forum(论坛) in Rio. Rather than breast-beating, the form aims to highlight some of the technologies and ideas out there for collection and reuse. My personal favorite for now is a vacuum cleaner with plastic parts m

43、ade from plastic waste.32. What do the campaigners like to do exactly? A. To hold a competition on how to deal with environmental pollution.B. To describe plastic waste as potential “gold”. C. To invite members of the public to their forum. D. To collect ideas on how to recycle plastic waste. 33. Th

44、e underlined part “trash to cash” most probably means “ “.

47、 of mankind might be regarded as making up several levels. _37_.The first and most basic level of wants involves food. Once this want is satisfied, a second level of wants appears: clothing and some sort of shelter. By the end of World War II these wants were satisfied for a great majority of Americ

48、ans. _38_It included such items as automobiles and new houses. By 1957 or 1958 this third level of wants was fairly well satisfied. Then, in the late 1950s a fourth level of wants appeared: the “life-enriching” level. While the other levels involve physical satisfactionthe feeding, comfort, safety,

49、and transportation of the human bodythis level stresses mental needs for recognition, achievement and happiness. It includes a variety of goods and services, many of which could be called “luxury” items. Among them are vacation trips, the best medical care, and entertainment. _39_ On this level, a g

50、reater percentage of consumer spending goes to services, while on the first three levels more is spent on goods. Will consumers raise their sights to a fifth level of wants as their income increases, or will they continue to demand luxuries and personal services on the fourth level? A fifth level pr

51、obably would involve wants that can be achieved best by community action. Consumers may be spending more on taxes to pay for government action against disease, ignorance, crime and prejudice. _40_In this way, we can enjoy more fully the good things on the first four levels.A. Human wants seem endles
