Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of th

10、em there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. 15 When we meet a person, our first impression is based on their body language and their speech. When someone goes up on a

11、 stage, or gives a presentation at a business meeting, many pairs of eyes will be following and judging this person. If you are up there and talking, you want to give your best impression. While many workshops and online videos focus on teaching us how to adjust our body language to appear confident

12、 and convince others of our message, less attention is given to how we phrase things. Speech should flow, but there is this one little bad habit most of us have one that builds a dam in our flowing sentences. This habit makes our message sound as if we are building our foundations on quicksand. Do y

13、ou know which bad habit I mean? It is the habit of using that not-even-a-word in too many sentences, i.e., the habit of saying “uhm“ something we generally are not even aware of. When we let this habit slip into our speech, it weakens our message, and our audience and clients will be less convinced

14、of our claims. The nasty thing about “uhm“ is that it s often too tiny to even notice. It has become part of our expressions and virtually everybody does it. Therefore, it takes practice and effort to unlearn stuffing our sentences with it. To get a hold of your bad habit of using “uhm“ , you can tr

15、y the following exercises: 1)Record your speech when you prepare: 2)Write out your entire speech beforehand: 3)Take a moment to center yourself: and 4)Speak a little more slowly. Make a pledge today: drop the “uhm“! 16 The main topic of the passage is_. （ A） how to give a good impression （ B） how to

16、 use body language （ C） how to build confidence （ D） how to make your speech flow 17 By the “bad habit“ , the author refers to_. （ A） speaking very slowly （ B） speaking too fast （ C） speaking in a broken way （ D） speaking in a critical way 18 The “bad habit“ is harmful because it makes the speaker l

17、ook_. （ A） stupid （ B） unprepared （ C） unconfident （ D） unfriendly 19 The word “unlearn“ (Para. 5)can be replaced with “_.“ （ A） undo （ B） stop （ C） break （ D） move 20 The last paragraph is concerned with_. （ A） the strategies to get rid of the bad habit （ B） the importance of forming good habits （

18、C） the difficulties in speech preparation （ D） the necessity of being confident 20 In the old days, when schools wanted to communicate with parents, they sent a letter home. Now, in addition to email, schools and parents can connect through social media like Twitter, Facebook and Skype. The Houston

19、Independent School District in Texas has more than two hundred thousand students. Most of them come from lower-income families. Education Week recently reported on a digital literacy training program that the district has just started for parents. The school district with help from Microsoft has est

20、ablished computer training centers for parents at five of its campuses. Other schools around the country are also increasing their digital services and not just in English. Many schools provide information in Spanish and other languages. Free online translation sites can also help parents stay infor

21、med about their children s education. Some school systems also give parents online access to their children s grades and school work. Six hundred students attend Knapp Elementary School near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Principal Joe Mazza says almost one in five students come from Bangladesh and twe

22、lve percent from South Korea. The school diversity is clear as soon as visitors enter the building. “ So if you are walking in our school lobby, you are going to see English, Bengali, Korean, Spanish and all of the Finnish in the school. Now we feel that a welcoming, bright, informative, child-cente

23、red lobby really helps parents feel welcomed, honored and respected.“ 21 Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a means for schools to communicate with parents? （ A） Social media. （ B） Parent meetings. （ C） Letters. （ D） Email. 22 The digital literacy training program is intended to_. （ A） help

But eight months ago our car was hit,

27、and the damage was so bad it had to be given up. And that s when I had an idea. Why not just give up having a car at all? The more I thought about it, the more sensible it seemed. We have a railway station behind our house, a tube station 10 minutes walk away, and a bus stop at the end of the street

28、. If any family in Britain could live without a car, I reasoned, then surely we were that family? But my new car-free plan wasn t shared by my family. My teenage daughters were shocked. How would they get to and from university? (A bus, I suggested.)What would their friends think about our family be

29、ing “too poor to afford a car“ ? (I wasn t that bothered what they thought, and I suggested they take the same approach.) My friends, too, were astonished at our plan. Wasn t a car essential, when you had children? What would happen if someone got seriously ill overnight and needed to go to hospital

30、 (erm.an ambulance?). People smiled, as though this was another of my mad ideas, before saying they were sure I d soon realise that a car wasn t a luxury, it was a necessity. Eight months on, I wonder whether we 11 ever own a car again. The idea that you “have“ to own a car, especially if you live i

31、n a city, is all in the mind. I live and many other people do too in a community that has never been better served by public transport, and yet car ownership has never been higher. Do I really need a car? The answer, for me, turned out to be no, and Im a lot richer because I dared to ask the questio

34、r s friends try to tell him? （ A） It is possible to live a car-free life. （ B） There is no need for expensive cars. （ C） A car is a necessary part of life. （ D） They 11 follow him if he s successful. 30 What conclusion does the author draw after the eight-month car-free life? （ A） He needs to buy a

35、new car. （ B） He is better off without a car. （ C） Life without a car is a little bit hard. （ D） A car-free life does not suit everyone. 30 As any working mum can tell you, running a business and a family at the same time is an almost impossible act. There are never enough hours in the day and most

36、days spill well into the late evening hours. My story starts with a simple red bump (小包 )on my back. Turns out, the bump was actually skin cancer! The diagnosis hit me like a ton of bricks. I was in my mid-20s and living a very healthy life. Cancer at that point was unimaginable. And, yet, it was al

37、l too true. After crying and crying for days, I finally decided to do something positive about my skin cancer diagnosis. After researching, I knew scientists had found that UV(紫外线 )exposure as a child leads to skin cancer later in life especially for fair skinned people and I did not want my childre

38、n to suffer the same fate. So, I decided to quit my job and start my own business. Thus was born SwimZip swimwear stylish swimsuits with protection that block 99% of those nasty cancer causing UV rays. These cute, sun protective clothes can actually save lives! The choice to follow my passion and he

39、lp prevent children from getting skin cancer was an easy one, but turning that passion into a successful business, while being a full-time mum, was a whole different story. Being a mum and business owner has been very difficult. I often feel like I cannot ever give as much energy to parenting or wor

40、king as I would like. After several busy work days, I know I have to take a break, leave the phone at home, and just go out and give 100% to my child. Of course, by the time I get back to being CEO, the “to-do“ list has grown enormous again.Late (late, late, late!)nights are the norm. Starting a bus
