18、watched him cleaning the floor as a test.“You are employed,” he said. “Give me your e-mail address and Ill send you the application to fill in, as well as the date when you may start.”The man replied, “But I dont have a computer, neither an e-mail”.“Im sorry”, said the HR manager. “If you dont have

19、an e-mail, that means you do not exist. And anyone who doesnt exist, cannot have the job.”The man left with no hope at all. He didnt know what to do, with only $10 in his pocket. He then decided to go to the supermarket and buy 10 kilos of tomatoes. He then sold the tomatoes in a door-to-door round.

20、 In less than two hours, he succeeded in doubling his capital (资产). He repeated the operation three times, and returned home with $60.The man realized that he can survive by this way, and started to go every day earlier, and return late.

There is a thought b

26、y many non-Brits that everyone in Britain speaks with what is known as a received pronunciation (RP, 标准发音) accent, also called “the Queens English”.While many people do indeed talk this way, most Britons speak in their own regional accents. Scouse, Glaswegian and Black Country - from Liverpool, Glas

27、gow and the West Mid-lands - are just three of the countless non-RP accents British people speak with. There are even differences in accents between towns or cities just 30 kilometers apart.But besides disappointing foreign visitors, not speaking in an RP accent may mean a British person is judged,

28、or even treated differently, in their everyday life. In a 2015 study by The University of South Wales, UK, videos of people reading a passage in three different UK accents were shown to a second group of people. The group then rated how intelligent they thought the readers sounded. The lowest-rated

29、accent was Brummie, native to people from Birmingham, a city whose accent is considered working class. “Specific regional accents are often received as inferior and belonging to groups lacking in prestige (声望),” Lance Workman, leader of the study, told The Telegraph. “It is clear that many of those

30、with regional accents are still hitting a glass ceiling.” But English-learners who want to sound more British should not go straight for RP, as many do. In fact, doing the opposite may even give you an advantage.Kong Seongjae, 25, better known as “Korean Billy”, is an internet celebrity (名人) from Se

31、oul. After studying in the UK, he picked up several regional accents. Hes now famous for his online videos, where he shows off the various accents hes learned. “British people usually get really excited when I use some of their local dialect words, and they become much more friendly. I think it make

32、s a bit of bond (情感纽带）between local people and foreigners to speak in their local accent,” he saidSo if youre working on perfecting your British accent, try to speak like someone from Liverpool, Glasgow or Birmingham. You may not sound like Harry Potter, but you are likely to make more friends.28. W

33、hat is the article mainly about?A. how much British people value the RP accent B. a comparison between different British accents C. the impact of regional accents on peoples lives D. a study about the most intelligent accent in Britain 29. What do many British people think of the Brummie accent?A. I

34、t is smart and easy to understandB. It has the closest link to the RP accent C. It is favored by foreign visitors to the UK D. It is spoken by people with a lower level of education30. The underlined word “inferior” in Paragraph 8 probably means_. A. having a very short history B. feeling comfortabl

35、e and relaxed C. showing unusual or unexpected qualities D. being less important or not as good as something else 31. The author used Kong Seongjaes story to_. A. explain how accents can help build ties with local people B. give an example of how to become famous online quicklyC. prove that peoples

36、interest in the RP accent is dropping offD. show that its important to pick up different accents when learning EnglishDBorn in China, which came out in the Chinese mainland in August last year, was one of the only documentaries (纪录片) to focus on Chinese wildlife. And now, the hit production has made

37、 it to the US. Released on April 21, the movie, directed by top Chinese filmmaker Lu Chuan, tells the story of three animal families native to China: pandas, snow leopards, and golden monkeys. The documentary is 79 minutes long but it took three years to shoot. According to Variety, the documentary

38、celebrates the belief that “loss and death are all part of the circle of life”, and leave the audiences with the feeling of “Animals theyre just like us.” For example, the panda story follows how Ya Ya raises her cub (幼崽), Mei Mei, in a bamboo forest. But its not just the daily lives of the lovely c

39、reatures that are shown. “Finally, the two must separate, not because something harsh (严酷的) happens but simply because life happens. A 2-year-old golden monkey, after feeling like his life has been changed for the worse when his new baby sister arrives, quickly joins a group of free-spirited monkeys

40、. Eventually, he returns to his family after understanding the meaning of responsibility. A mother snow leopard faces the challenge of raising her two cubs in a harsh environment on the Tibetan Plateau (高原). Since the cubs are still unable to hunt for themselves, feeding them through the freezing wi

41、nter is her top concern. However, competition from other snow leopards makes their survival very difficult.Not only does the documentary promote the beauty of Chinas wildlife, but also presents a different side of the country to the rest of the world. When thinking of China, many people only “think

42、of Beijing and Shanghai and prosperity,” British scientist Jane Goodall told the Associated Press, “but China is huge and some of these landscapes that are captured in this film are truly spectacular (壮丽的).” In this sense, Born in China is, as Variety put it, a “cross-cultural diplomacy (外交)” which
