Theyre ordinary folks like you and me.But am I good enough?I was once where you might be now. My thoughts of

11、 writing had been pushed down by self-doubt, and I didnt know where to turn for help.Then, I accepted a free offer from the Institute to test my writing ability, and it turned out to be the inspiration I needed.The promise that paid offThe Institute made the same promise to me that they will make to

I sold three stories. And I soon discovered that was not un

17、news. However, if the exhausted runner had the misfortune to bring the pharaoh unhappy news, his head was cut off.Shades of that spirit spread over todays conversations. Once a friend and I packed up some peanut butter and sandwiches for an outing. As we walked light-heartedly out of the door, picni

18、c basket in hand, a smiling neighbor looked up at the sky and said, “Oh boy, bad day for a picnic. The weatherman says its going to rain.” I wanted to strike him on the face with the peanut butter and sandwiches. Not for his stupid weather report, but for his smile.Several months ago I was racing to

19、 catch a bus. As I breathlessly put my handful of cash across the Greyhound counter, the sales agent said with a broad smile, “Oh, that bus left five minutes ago.” Dreams of head cutting!Its not the news that makes someone angry. Its the unsympathetic attitude with which its delivered. Everyone must

20、 give bad news from time to time, and winning professionals do it with the proper attitude. A doctor advising a patient that she needs an operation does it in a caring way. A boss informing an employee he didnt get the job takes on a sympathetic tone. Big winners know，when delivering any bad news, t

21、hey should share the feeling of the receiver.Unfortunately, many people are not aware of this. When youre tired from a long flight, has a hotel clerk cheerfully said that your room isnt ready yet？When you had your heart set on the toast beef, has your waiter merrily told you that he just served the

22、last piece? It makes you as a traveler or diner want to land your fist right on their unsympathetic faces.Had my neighbor told me of the upcoming rainstorm with sympathy, I would have appreciated his warning. Had the Greyhound salesclerk sympathetically informed me that my bus had already left, I pr

23、obably would have said, “Oh, thats all right. Ill catch the next one.” Big winners, when they bear bad news, deliver bombs with the emotion the bombarded(被轰炸的)person is sure to have.24.

24、 a topic D. offer an argument25. In the writers opinion, his neighbor was_.A. not helpful B. warm-heartedC. friendly D. not considerate26.

26、ng ancient traditions can be useful.C“What kind of rubbish are you?” This question might normally cause anger, but in Shanghai it has brought about complaints over the past week. On July 1st, the city introduced strict trash-sorting regulations that are expected to be used as a model for our country

27、. Residents must divide their waste into four separate kinds and put it into specific public bins. They must do so at scheduled times, when monitors are present to ensure compliance（服从）and to study the nature of ones rubbish.Violatorsface the possibility of fines and worse. They could be hit with fi

28、nes of up to 200yuan($29). For repeated violators, the city can add black marks to their credit records, making it harder for them to obtain bank loans or even buy train tickets.Shanghai authorities are responding to an obvious environmental problem. It produces 9 million tonnes of garbage a year, m

29、ore than Londons annual output and rising quickly. But like other cities in China, it lacks a recycling system. Instead, it has relied on trash pickers to sort out the waste, picking out whatever can be reused. This has limits. As people get wealthier, fewer of them want to do such dirty work. The w

30、aste, meanwhile, just keeps piling up. China produces 80 billion pairs of disposable(一次性的)chopsticks a year.Many residents appear to support the idea of recycling in general but are frustrated by the details. Rubbish must be divided according to whether it is food, recyclable, dry or hazardous（有害的）,

31、 the differences among which can be confusing, though there are apps to help work it out. Some have complained about the rules surrounding food waste. They must put it straight in the required public bin, forcing them to tear open plastic bags and toss it by hand. Most upset are the short windows fo

32、r throwing trash, typically a couple of hours, morning and evening. Along with the monitors at the bins, this means that people go at around the same time and can keep an eye on what is being thrown out; no one wants to look bad.28. What does the underlined word “Violators” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A

33、. People who dont sort the waste.B. People who argue with the monitors.C. People who dont throw the trash on time.D. People who are against the regulations.29. What is the main direct environmental problem in Shanghai?A. The massive traffic.B. The increasing garbage.C. Lack of a recycling system.D.

35、can be the best title for the text?A. A Restart of Trash-sortingB. A Great Change in Tackling LitterC. New Times of Garbage ClassificationD. A Craze for Learning Waste SortingDGrown-ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever sin

36、ce. A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can tea

37、ch her daughter the poem that begins “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, additional learning trials increase the length of tim

38、e we will remember it.In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” and childhood tales such as Cinderella and

39、Goldilocks. We not only learn but overlearn.The multiplication tables(乘法口诀表) are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.The law of overlearning explains why cramming(突击学习) for

40、 an examination, though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning, on the other hand

41、, is really necessary for ones future development.32. Whats the main idea of Paragraph 1?A. People remember well what they learned in childhood.B. Children have a better memory than grown-ups.C.

44、选项中有两项为多余选项。Online Friends and LoveIn so many ways, cyberspace mirrors the real world. 36 Others buy and sell products. Still others look for friendship, or even love. Unlike the real world, however, your knowledge about a person is limited to words on a computer screen. Identity (身份) and appearance

45、 mean very little in cyberspace. 37 So even the shyest person can become a chat-room star. Usually, this “faceless” communication doesnt create problems. Identity doesnt really matter when youre in a chat room discussing politics or hobbies and it makes the Internet a great place for exciting conver

46、sation. Where else can so many people come together to chat about their interests? 38 Theyre looking for serious love relationships. Is cyberspace a good place to find love? That answer depends on whom you ask. Some of these relationships actually succeed. Others fail miserably.Supporter of online r

47、elationships claim that the Internet allows couples to get to know each other. Personal appearance doesnt get in the way. But critics of online relationships argue that no one can truly know another person in cyberspace. Why? 39 Internet users can carefully make their words fit whatever image they w

48、ant to give. In a sense, theyre not really themselves. All of this may be fine if the relationship stays in cyberspace. 40 With so many unknowns, its easy to let ones imagination “fill in the blanks”. This leads to disappointment when couples meet in person. So, before looking for love in cyberspace

49、, remember the advice of Internet pioneer Clifford Stoll: “Life in the real world is far richer than anything youll find on a computer screen.”A. When we talk with others on the line, we can express ourselves freely.B. But some Internet users want more than just someone to chat with.C. People ask fo

50、r information, play games and share hobby tips.D. Generally speaking, online friends and love are worth seeking for.E. Because the Internet gives users a lot of control over how others view them.F. Rather, a persons thoughts or at least the thoughts they type are what really count.G. But not knowing
