2、swer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center. 1 There are two basic ways to see growth: one as a product, the other as a process. People have generally viewed personal growth as an external result or product that can easily be identified and measured. The worker who gets a promotio

3、n, the student whose grades improve, the foreigner who learns a new language these are examples of people who have measurable results to show for their efforts. By contrast, the process of personal growth is much more difficult to determine, since by definition it is a journey and not the specific s

4、ignposts or landmarks along the way. The process is not the road itself, but rather the attitudes and feelings people have, their caution or courage, as they encounter new experiences and unexpected obstacles. In this process, the journey never really ends; there are always new ways to experience th

5、e world, new ideas to try, new challenges to accept. In order to grow, to travel new roads, people need to have a willingness to take risks, to confront the unknown, and to accept the possibility they may “fail“ at first. How we see ourselves as we try a new way of being is essential to our ability

6、to grow. Do we perceive ourselves as quick and curious? If so, then we tend to take more chances and to be more open to unfamiliar experiences. Do we think were shy and indecisive? Then our sense of timidity can cause us to hesitate, to move slowly, and not to take a step until we know the ground is

7、 safe. Do we think were slow to adapt to change or that were not smart enough to cope with a new challenge? Then we are likely to take a more passive role or not try at all. These feelings of insecurity and self-doubt are both unavoidable and necessary if we are to change and grow. If we do not conf

8、ront and overcome these internal fears and doubts, if we protect ourselves too much, then we cease to grow. We become trapped inside a shell of our own making. Question: When the author says “a new way of being“, he is referring to_. （ A） a new approach to experiencing the world （ B） a new way of ta

9、king risks （ C） a new method of perceiving ourselves （ D） a new system of adapting to change 2 One silly question I simply cannot tolerate is “How do you feel?“ Usually the question is asked of a man in action a man walking along the street, or busily working at his desk. So what do you expect him t

10、o say? Hell probably say, “Fine, Im all right. “ But you have put a bug in his ear maybe now he is not sure. If you are his good friend, you may have seen something on his face, or in his walk, that he overlooked that morning. It makes him worrying a little. He looks in a mirror to see if everything

11、 is all right, while you go merrily on your way asking someone else, “How do you feel?“ Every question has its time and place. Its perfectly acceptable, for instance, to ask “How do you feel?“ if you are visiting a close friend in the hospital. But if the fellow is walking on both legs, hurrying to

12、take a train or sitting at his desk working, its no time to ask him that silly question. When George Bernard Shaw, the famous British writer of plays was in his eighties, someone asked him, “How do you feel?“ Shaw put him in his place. “When you reach my age,“ he said, “either you feel all right or

13、you are dead. “ Question: “You have put a bug in his ear“ means that you have_. （ A） made him laugh （ B） shown concern for him （ C） made fun of him （ D） given him some kind of warning 3 Tight-lipped elders used to say, “Its not what you want in this world, but what you get. “ Psychology teaches that

14、 you do get what you want if you know what you want and want the right things. You can make a mental blueprint of a desire as you would make a blueprint of a house, and each of us is continually making these blueprints in the general routine of everyday living. If we intend to have friends to dinner

15、, we plan the menu, make a shopping list, decide which food to cook first, and such planning is an essential for any type of meal to be served. Likewise, if you want to find a job, take a sheet of paper, and write a brief account of yourself. In making a blueprint for a job, begin with yourself, for

16、 when you know exactly what you have to offer, you can intelligently plan where to sell your services. This account of yourself is actually a sketch of your working life and should include education, experience and references. Such an account is valuable. It can be referred to in filling out standar

17、d application blanks and is extremely helpful in personal interviews. While talking to you, your could-be employer is deciding whether your education, your experience, and other qualifications will pay him to employ you and your “wares“ and abilities must be displayed in an orderly and reasonably co

18、nnected manner. When you have carefully prepared a blueprint of your abilities and desires, you have something tangible to sell. Then you are ready to hunt for a job. Get all the possible information about your could-be job. Make inquires as to the details regarding the job and the firm. Keep your e

19、yes and ears open, and use your own judgement. Spend a certain amount of time each day seeking the employment you wish for, and keep in mind: Securing a job is your job now. Question: What do the elders mean when they say, “Its not what you want in this world, but what you get. “? （ A） Youll certain

20、ly get what you want. （ B） Its no use dreaming. （ C） You should be dissatisfied with what you have. （ D） Its essential to set a goal for yourself. 4 Many people believe the glare(耀眼的强光 )from snow causes snowblindness. Yet, dark glasses or not they find themselves suffering from headaches and waterin

21、g eyes, and even snowblindness, when exposed to several hours of “snow light“. The United States Army has now determined that the glare from snow does not cause snowblindness in troops in a snow-covered country. Rather, a mans eyes frequently find nothing to focus on in a broad expanse of a snow-cov

22、ered area. So his gaze continually shifts and jumps back and forth over the entire landscape in search of something to look at. Finding nothing, hour after hour, the eyes never stop searching and the eyeballs become sore and the eye muscle aches. Nature balances this annoyance by producing more and

23、more liquid which covers the eyeballs. The liquid covers the eyeballs in increasing quantity until vision blurs(模糊 ). And the result is total, even though temporary, snowblindness. Experiments led the Army to a simple method of overcoming this problem. Scouts(侦察兵 )ahead of a main body of troops are

24、trained to shake snow from evergreen bushes, creating a dotted line as they cross completely snow-covered landscape. Even the scouts themselves throw lightweight, dark-colored objects ahead on which they too can focus. The men following can then see something. Their gaze is arrested. Their eyes focu

25、s on a bush and having found something to see, stop searching through the snow-blanketed landscape. By focusing their attention on one object at a time, the man can cross the snow without becoming hopelessly snowblind or lost. In this way the problem of crossing a solid white area is overcome. Quest

26、ion: The first paragraph is mainly concerned with_. （ A） snow glare and snowblindness （ B） the whiteness from snow （ C） headaches, watering eyes and snowblindness （ D） the need for dark glasses 5 The American economic system is organized around a basically private-enterprise, market-oriented economy

27、 in which consumers largely determine what shall be produced by spending their money in the marketplace for those goods and services that they want most. Private businessmen, striving to make profits, produce these goods and services in competition with other businessmen; and the profit motive, oper

28、ating under competitive pressures, largely determines how these goods and services are produced. Thus, in the American economic system it is the demand of individual consumers, coupled with the desire of businessmen to maximize profits and the desire of individuals to maximize their incomes, that to

29、gether determine what shall be produced and how resources are used to produce it. An important factor in a market-oriented economy is the mechanism by which consumer demands can be expressed and responded to by producers. In the American economy, this mechanism is provided by a price system, a proce

30、ss in which prices rise and fall in response to relative demands of consumers and supplies offered by seller-producers. If the product is in short supply relative to the demand, the price will be bid up and some consumers will be eliminated from the market. If, on the other hand, producing more of a

31、 commodity results in reducing its cost, this will tend to increase the supply offered by seller-producers, which in turn will lower the price and permit more consumers to buy the product. Thus, price is the regulating mechanism in the American economic system. The important factor in a private-ente

32、rprise economy is that individuals are allowed to own productive resources(private property), and they are permitted to hire labor, gain control over natural resources, and produce goods and services for sale at a profit. In the American economy, the concept of private property embraces not only the

33、 ownership of productive resources but also certain rights, including the right to determine the price of a product or to make a free contract with another private individual. Question: The first two sentences in the second paragraph tell us that_. （ A） producers can satisfy the consumers by mechani

34、zed production （ B） consumers can express their demands through producers （ C） producers decide the prices of products （ D） supply and demand regulate prices 在职攻硕英语联考（阅读）模拟试卷 86答案与解析 一、 Part III Reading Comprehension (40 minutes, 40 points) Directions: There are 4 passages in this part.
