20、 was fifteen past nine as Marie hurried into the office building where she was going to work Her bus had inched along through heavy morning traffic, making her a few minutes late for her very first job. She decided to start out half an hour earlier the next day. Once inside the lobby, she had to sta
21、nd at the elevators and wait several minutes before she could get on one going to the sixth floor. When she finally reached the office marked “Smith Enterprises“, she knocked at the door nervously and waited. There was no reply. She tapped on the door again, but still there was no answer. From insid
22、e the next office, she could hear the sound of voices, so she opened the door and went in. Although she was sure it was the same office she had been in two weeks before when she had the interview with Mr. Smith, it looked quite different now. In fact, it hardly looked like an office at ail. The empl
23、oyees were just standing around chatting and smoking. In the front of the room, somebody must have just told a good joke, she thought ,because there was a loud burst of laughter as she came in. For a moment she had thought they were laughing at her. Then one of the men looked at his watch, clapped h
24、is hands and said something to the others. Quickly they all went to their desks and, in a matter of seconds, everyone was hard at work. No one paid any attention to Marie. Finally she went up to the man who was sitting at the desk nearest to the door and explained that this was her first day in the
25、office. Hardly looking up from his work, he told her to have a seat and wait for Mr. Smith, who would arrive at any moment. Then Marie realized that the day s work in the office began just before Mr. Smith arrived. Later she found out that he lived in Connecticut and came into Manhattan on the same
26、train every morning, arriving in the office at 9:35,so that his staff knew exactly when to start working. （分数：1.00）(1).Made felt nervous when she knocked at the door because_.（分数：0.20）A.it was her first day in a new jobB.she was a little bit late for workC.she was afraid that she had gone to the wro

Were taught that we should get seven or eight hours a night, but a lot of us get
30、by just fine on less, and some of us actually sleep too much. A study out of the University of Buffalo reported that people who routinely sleep more than eight hours a day and are still tired are nearly three times as likely to die of stroke probably as a result of an underlying disorder that keeps
31、them from sleeping soundly. Doctors have their own special sleep problems. Residents are famously short of sleep. It is not unusual for them to work 40 hours in a row without rest. They are not in the least worried about it, confident they can still deliver the highest quality of medical care. But a
32、n article in the Journal of the American Medical Association points out that in the morning after 24 hours of sleeplessness, a persons motor performance is comparable to that of someone who is drunk. Curiously, surgeons who believe that operating under the influence of alcohol is grounds for sacking
33、 often dont think twice about operating without enough sleep. “ I could tell you horror stories,“ says Jaya Agrawal, president of the American Medical Student Association, which runs a website for residents. Some are terrifying. “ I was operating after being up for over 36 hours,“ one writes. “I lit
34、erally fell asleep standing up and nearly planted my face into the wound. “ “Practically every surgical resident I know has fallen asleep at the wheel driving home from work,“ writes another. “I know of three who have hit parked cars. Another hit a Jersey gate on the New Jersey Expressway, going 105
35、km/h. “ “Your own patients have become the enemy,“ writes a third, because they are “the one thing that stands between you and a few hours of sleep. “ The U. S. controls the hours of pilots and truck drivers. But until such a system is in place for doctors, patients are on their own. If youre worrie
36、d about the people treating you or a loved one, you should feel free to ask how many hours of sleep they have had and if more rested staffers are available. （分数：1.00）(1).Sleep is a funny thing because_.（分数：0.20）A.the longer one sleeps, the less sound sleep he getsB.the more sleep one gets, the more
37、likely a stroke occursC.many people stick to about eight hours of sleep to stay fineD.many people who sleep six hours a night still feel energetic in the day(2).A surgeon who has worked 40 hours in a row without sleep_.（分数：0.20）A.can still provide quality medical careB.will remain alert because he i
38、s used to itC.may ignore the potential risk of insufficient sleepD.should be fired if he continues the medical operation(3).According to one resident, they are short of sleep because_.（分数：0.20）A.they are too tired to fall asleepB.they are forbidden to sleep at workC.they are kept by treating their p
39、atientsD.they are too worried about oversleeping(4).The resident who hit a “Jersey gate“ on the New Jersey Expressway must have_.（分数：0.20）A.fallen asleepB.drunk too muchC.been driving too longD.avoided hitting parked cars(5).Patients are now advised to _（分数：0.20）A.monitor the hours of doctors by the
40、mselvesB.make sure that the doctors who treat them have had enough sleepC.ask for legal control of the hours of doctorsD.allow their doctors to sleep several hours before the operationMy family and I recently returned from a trip to Alaska, a place that combines supernatural beauty with a breathtaki
41、ng amount of bear risks. Ill start with some facts at a glance: WHERE ALASKA IS: Way the hell far from you. Beyond Mars. HOW YOU GET THERE: You sit in a variety of airplanes for most of your adult life. WHAT THEY HAVE THERE THAT WILL TRY TO KILL YOU: Bears. I am quite serious about this. Although Al
42、aska is now an official United States with modem conveniences such as rental cars and frozen yogurt, it also contains a large number of admitted bears, striding freely about the landscape, and nobody seems to be the least bit alarmed about this. In fact, the Alaskans seem to be proud of it. You walk
43、 into a hotel or department store, and the first thing you see is a glass case containing a stuffed bear the size of a real one. Our hotel had two of these. It was what we travel writers call “a two-bear hotel“. Both bears were standing on their hind legs and striking a pose that said: “Welcome to A
44、laska! Im going to tear your arms off!“ This struck me as an odd concept, greeting visitors with a showcase containing a major local hazard. Its as if an anti-drug organization went around setting up glass display cases containing stuffed drug smugglers, with little plaques stating how much they wei
45、ghed and where they were taken. Anyway, we decided the best way to deal with our fear of bears was to become well informed about them, so we bought a book, Alaska Bear Tales. Here are some of the chapter titles, which I am not making up. “Theyll Attack Without Warning“ “Theyll Really Attack You“ “Th
46、ey Will Kill“ “Come Quick ! Im Being Eaten by a Bear !“ “They Can Be Funny“ Ha ha ! I bet they can. I bet Mr. and Mrs. Bear and a bundle of hilarity as they fight playfully over the remaining portion of a former tourist plumped up by airline food. But just the same, I m glad that the only actual, no

48、n stuffed drag smugglers?（分数：0.20）A.Because they can attack without warning just like bears.B.Because they are used to give warnings to visitors about bears.C.Because they are as funny as stuffed bears.D.Because they are used to show the oddness of the stuffed bears.(4).What s the author s impressio
49、n of Alaska?（分数：0.20）A.Positive.B.Negative.C.Neutral.D.Funny.(5).What can we learn from the passage about Alaskans?（分数：0.20）A.They are fond of bears.B.They dont know how to treat tourists.C.They want to frighten tourists away.D.They live a very natural life.五、Part B(总题数：1，分数：1.00)Mr. Mike Smith: It wasnt an easy decision, but we re been asking for a decent wage for years.
