29、rt Cloze(总题数：1，分数：10.00)The night passed rapidly: I was too tired even to dream; I only once awoke to hear the wind rave in furious gusts, and the rain fall in torrents, and to be (46) (sense) that Miss Miller had taken her place by my side. When I again unclosed my eyes, a loud bell was ringing; th

30、e girls were up and dressing; day had not yet begun (47) dawn, and a rushlight or two burnt in the room. I too rose reluctantly; it was bitter cold, and 1 dressed as well as I could for shivering, and washed when there was a basin at liberty, which did not occur soon, as there was but one basin to s

31、ix girls, on the stands down the middle of the room. Again the bell rang: all formed (48) file, two and two, and in that order descended the stairs and entered the cold and dimly-lit schoolroom: here prayers were r (49) by Miss Miller; afterwards she called out“ Form classes!“A great tumult succeede

32、d for some minutes, during which Miss Miller (50) (repeat) exclaimed, “Silence!“ and “Order“. When it subsided, I saw them all drawn up in four semicircles, before four chairs, placed at the four tables: all held books in their hands, and a great book, like a Bible, I (51) on each table, before the

33、vacant seat. A pause of some seconds succeeded, (52) (fill) up by the low, vague hum of numbers; Miss Miller walked from class to class, hushing this indefinite sound.A distant bell tinkled: immediately three ladies entered the room, each walked to a table and took her seat; Miss Miller assumed the

34、fourth va (53) chair, which was nearest the door, and around which the smallest of the children were assembled: to this inferior class I was called, and placed at the bottom of it.Business now began : the days Collect was repeated, then certain texts of Scripture were said, and to these succeeded a

35、protracted reading of chapters in the Bible, which lasted an hour. By the time that exercise was terminated, day had fully dawned. The (54) (fatigable) bell now sounded for the fourth time: the classes were marshaled and marched into another room to breakfast. How glad I was to behold a prospect of

36、getting something to eat! I was now nearly sick from hunger, having taken so li (55) the day before.（分数：10.00）填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_十、Part Reading Compr(总题数：0，分数：0.00)十一、Section A(总题数：1，分数：10.00)Every year since 1998, Fortune Magazine has published a l

37、ist of the “ 100 Best Companies to Work For“ How does the magazine choose the companies? Firstly, it uses a survey. 350 employees answer fifty-seven questions about their company. Secondly, Fortune Magazine looks at important features of companies ; for example, pay, benefits, and communication betw

38、een workers and management. Finally, the magazine compares the results to find its Top 100.To a certain extent, the results are guesswork, but the companies on the list, by and large, have many things in common: they pay their employees well, they allow workers to make decisions, and they offer a co

39、mfortable workplace. Broadly speaking, however, the winners tend to offer something above and beyond the norm. J. M. Smucker, a jam and jelly company, gives its workers free muffins and bagels for breakfast; at Griffin Hospital, employees get free massages; a bank called First Horizon National gives

40、 its employees time off to visit their childrens classrooms. Wegmans Food Markets sent one worker on a ten-day trip to London, Paris and Italy to learn about cheese. This is not unusual for the New York-based company, which is well-known for the scholarships it gives its employees to further their e

41、ducation. At W. L. Gore, workers decide on their colleagues salaries. Surprisingly enough, the most important thing for employees is not money. It is freedom to develop ideas. Timberland offers a six-month paid sabbatical for employees who have “a personal dream that benefits the community“.Lets not

42、 forget that all these companies are businesses whose priority is making money. They have to make a profit. And do they? Seemingly, the answer is a big “yes“ The number one company on Fortunes 2005 list, Wegmans, makes a fortune. The company, which has a motto, “Employees first, customers second“, i

43、s one of the fifty largest private companies in the US, with annual sales of $ 3.6 billion, according to Forbes magazine. Apparently, being good to your employees is no obstacle to making money.How much of Wegmans success is due to the companys policies? “Up to a point, the success is because of the

44、 freedom they give us,“ says one employee. “On the other hand, no company gets rich just by being nice. Wegmans has great marketing strategies and its well-positioned within the community. Ive been here for fifteen years. Looking back, Id say that the companys innovations for customers, such as the

45、Shoppers Club electronic discount programme in the 90s, have been just as important as the benefits to staff. “But the employee benefits are striking. Fundamentally, Wegmans believes in professional development. As well as scholarships, the company gives its employees business opportunities. For yea

46、rs, one employee made delicious cookies for her colleagues. Eventually, she started selling the cookies in Wegmans. “I just asked the manager,“ she says. “With hindsight, I should have asked earlier. I could have made more money!“The staffs freedom to make decisions is another thing you wont find ev

47、erywhere. Essentially, Wegmans wants its workers to do almost anything to keep the customers happy. Believe it or not, an employee once cooked a Thanksgiving turkey in the store for a customer because the womans turkey, bought in Wegmans, was too big for her oven. One manager says, “Were a $ 3 billi

48、on company run by sixteen-year-old cashiers. “（分数：10.00）(1).According to Fortune Magazine, the “100 Best Companies to Work For“ are chosen by a comparison of_, such as salary, benefits and so on.（分数：2.00）填空项 1:_(2).The survey conducted by Fortune Magazine infers that employees consider_as the most important instead of high salary to decide which company to work for.（分数：2.00）填空项 1:_(3).The
