23、ous news presenter of the NBC News “Today“ show. When she was 15 she happened to walk into a bookstore in her hometown and began looking at the books on the shelves. The man behind the counter, Mac McCarley, asked if shed like a job. She needed to start saving for college, so she said yes.Ann worked

24、 after school and during summer vacations, and the job helped pay for her first year of college. During college she would do many other jobs: She served coffee in the student union (学生会), was a hotel maid and even made maps for the US Forest Service. But selling books was one of the most satisfying

25、jobs.One day a woman came into the bookstore and asked Ann for books on cancer. The woman seemed anxious. Ann showed her practically everything they had and found other books they could order. The woman left the store less worried, and Ann has always remembered the pride she felt in having helped he

26、r customer.Years later, as a television reporter in Los Angeles, Ann heard about a child who was born with problems with his fingers and his hand. His family could not afford a surgical (外科的) operation, and the boy lived in shame, hiding his hand in his pocket all the time.Ann persuaded her boss to

27、let her do the story. After the story was broadcast, a doctor and a nurse called, offering to perform the surgical operation for free.Ann visited the boy in the recovery room after the operation. The first thing the boy did was to hold up his repaired hand and say “Thank you.“ What a sweet sense of

28、satisfaction Ann Curry felt!At McCarleys bookstore, Ann always sensed she was working for the customers, not the store. Today its the same. NBC News pays her, but she feels as if she works for the people who watch the programs, helping them make sense of the world.（分数：4.00）(1).Ann Curry got her firs

29、t job _.（分数：1.00）A.from her friend in a bookstoreB.a couple of years before collegeC.at the NBC News “Today“ showD.when she was studying at university(2).At which part-time job did Ann Curry feel the happiest?（分数：1.00）A.The hotel.B.The bookstore.C.The student union.D.The US Forest Service.(3).What p

31、.Ann paid for the operation herself.C.Anns boss agreed to raise money.D.Anns news report moved some doctors.BIt was probably around 3,000 years ago that people first began making things to help them measure the passage of time. Having noticed that shadows move around trees as the sun moves across th

32、e sky, someone drew a circle and put a stick in the center. As the sun passed overhead, people could tell which part of the day it was by noticing which mark on the circle the shadow fell across. These circles were called “sundials“. latter, they were made of stone and metal to last longer.Of course

33、, a sundial did not work at night or on cloudy days, so men kept inventing other ways to keep track of time. After glass blowing was invented, the hourglass came into use. An hourglass is a glass container for measuring time in which sand moves slowly from the top half to the bottom in exactly one h

34、our. The hourglass is turned over every hour so the sand could flow again.One of the first clocks with a face and an hour hand was built for a king of France and placed in the tower of his palace. The clock did not show minutes or seconds. Since there were no planes or trains to catch, people were n

35、ot worried about knowing the exact time. Gradually, clocks began to be popular and unusual. One clock was in the shape of a cart with a horse and driver. One of the wheels was the face of the clock.Today, scientists have invented clocks that tell the correct time to a split second. Many electric clo

36、cks are often made with built-in radios, which can sometimes be set to turn on automatically. Thus, instead of an alarm ringing in your ear, you can hear soft music playing when it is time to get up. Some clocks will even start the coffee maker!（分数：4.00）(1).In the first paragraph, the word “sundial“

37、 refers to _.（分数：1.00）A.the shadow of the sunB.the circle on the groundC.a tool to carry stonesD.a timekeeper(2).In what way was the hourglass better than the sundial?（分数：1.00）A.It could be used under any weather conditions.B.It could be turned over and over again.C.It was made of glass.D.It could l

38、ast longer.(3).Besides telling the time, a modern electric clock can _.（分数：1.00）A.answer phone callsB.say your nameC.start a small machineD.cook different food(4).What is the best title for the passage?（分数：1.00）A.Clocks of Our LivesB.What Can a Clock Tell UsC.Clock through TimeD.Clocks Change People

39、s LivesCHave you ever thought about what determines the way we are as we grow up? Remember the TV program “Seven Up“? It started following the lives of a group of children in 1963. We first meet them as wide-eyed seven-year-olds and then catch up with them at seven-year intervals: nervous 14-year-ol

40、ds, serious 21 -year-olds, then grown-ups.Some of the stories are inspiring, others sad, but what is interesting in almost all the cases is the way in which the childrens early hopes and dreams are shown in their future lives. For example, at seven, Tony is a lively child who says he wants to become

41、 a sportsman or a taxi driver. When he grows up, he goes on to do both. How about Nicki? She says,“ Id like to find out about the moon.“ And she goes on to become a space scientist. As a child, soft-spoken Bruce says he wants to help “poor children“ and ends up teaching in India.But if the lives of

42、all the children had followed this pattern the program would be far less interesting than it actually was. It was the children whose childhood did not prepare them for what was to come that made the program so inspiring. Where did their ideas come from about what they wanted to do when they grew up?

43、 Are children influenced by what their parents do, by what they see on television, or by what their teachers say? How great is the effect of a single important event? Many film directors, including Stephen Spielberg, say that an early visit to the cinema was the turning point in their byes. Dr. Marg

44、aret McAllister, who has done a tot of research in this area, thinks that the major influences are parents, friends, and the wider society.（分数：5.00）(1).What does the text mainly discuss?（分数：1.00）A.New ways to make a TV program interesting.B.The importance of television programs to children.C.Differe

46、f people at different periods of their livesD.the same group of people at the same period of their lives(3).What are the examples in paragraph 2 meant to show?（分数：1.00）A.Many peoples childhood hopes are related to their future jobs.B.There are many poor children in India who need help.C.Children hav

47、e different dreams about their future.D.A lot of people are very sad in their childhood.(4).Spielbergs story is merest to show that _.（分数：1.00）A.going to a movie at an early age helps a child learn about societyB.a single childhood event may decide what one does as a grown-upC.parents and friends ca

48、n help a child grow up properlyD.films have more influence on a child than teachers do(5).What does the writer think of the TV program?（分数：1.00）A.Dull.B.Crazy.C.Interesting.D.Serious.DWill chips one day be planted in our bodies for identification?A US doctor has planted under his skin a computer chip that can send personal information to a scanner(扫描仪), a technology that may someday be widely used as a way to identify people. The chip gives off information which will be scanned by a hand-held reader.The chip is similar to those planted in more than one million dogs, eats
