20、tored for a few months in a cool area.Although the money spent for a garden may be little, one cannot escape the fact that gardening requires hard work and time.

21、ay result in failure and a negative feeling toward gardening.One should not plant a garden that is too large for him to care for.

22、ring the middle of the day. Too much shading results in poor plants and few vegetables.

27、e for retired people42 In old days, when a glimpse of stocking was looked upon as something so shocking as to distract the serious work of an office, secretaries were men.Then came the First World War and the male secretaries were replaced by women. A mans secretary became his personal servant, in c

28、harge of remembering his wifes birthday and buying her presents; taking his suits to the dry-cleaners; telling lies on the telephone to keep away people he did not wish to speak to; and, of course, typing and filing and taking short hand.Now all this may be changing again. The microchip (芯片) and hig

29、h technology is sweeping the British office, taking with it much of the routine clerical (文书的) work that secretaries did.“Once office technology takes over generally, the status of the job will rise again because it will involve the high-tech work-and then men will want to do it again.“That was said

30、 by one of the executives (male) of one of the biggest secretarial agencies in this country. What he has predicted is already under way in the U. S.Once high technology has made the job of secretary less routine (乏味的), will there be a male takeover? Men should be careful of thinking that they can wa

31、lk right into the better jobs.

For mo

35、st of its history, life on Earth was restricted to the sea. Living things began to populate the land slightly over 400 million years ago, and humans have existed for no more than 3 million years.One way to represent the evolution of tire is to compress the 4.6-billion-year history of Earth into a 1-

36、year-long film. In such a film, Earth forms as the film begins on January 1, and through all of January and February it cools and is cratered (变成坑状) and the first oceans form. But those oceans remain lifeless until sometime in March or early April, when the first living things develop. The 4-billion

37、-year history of Precambrian (前寒武纪)evolution lasts until the film reaches mid-November, when primitive ocean life begins to evolve into complex organisms such as trilobites (三叶虫 ).If we examine the land instead of the oceans, we find a lifeless waste. But once our film shows plant and animal life on

38、 the land, about November 28, evolution proceeds rapidly. Dinosaurs, for example, appear about December 12 and vanish by Christmas Eve, as mammals (哺乳动物) and birds flourish.Throughout the 1-year-run of our film there are no humans, and even during the last days of the year as the mammals rise and do

39、minate the landscape, there are no people. In the early evening of December 31, vaguely human forms move through the grasslands, and by late evening they begin making stone tools. The Stone Age lasts until about 11:45 pm, and the first signs of civilization, towns and cities, do not appear until 11:

40、 54 pm. The Christian era begins only 14 seconds before the New Year, and the Declaration of Independence is signed with I second to spare.47 In comparing all of Earths geological evolution to one calendar year, the author shows _.（A）just how recently humanity has arrived on the scene（B） just how si

41、mple it is to understand the history of Earth（C） just how early humanity appears on planet Earth（D）just how difficult it is to understand the history of Earth48 According to the passage, primitive ocean life begins to evolve into complex organisms _.（A）in the middle of December（B） when Earth is crat

42、ered（C） at the beginning of November（D）when the land is still a lifeless waste49 It is indicated in the passage that _.（A）Earth is cool at first（B） Earth is hot at the beginning（C） there are oceans at the beginning（D）there is life in the ocean in late February50 In the one-year-long film dinosaurs _

43、.（A）die out on December 25（B） appear after December 25（C） die out on December 24（D）appear on December 2451 In the compressed history of Earth the Declaration of Independence is signed _.（A）a long time before the New Year（B） immediately after the New Years Day（C） just one second before the New Year（D

44、）right on the New Years Day52 Internet-addicted job seekers may be partly the cause of the fact that it is taking the unemployed 23 % longer to find a new position than it took during the last recession (经济萧条), when the “benefits“ of online job searching were unavailable. “A growing number of unempl

45、oyed Americans waste time browsing (济览) the estimated 4,000 to 5,000 online job sites, filling them with resumes, and then waiting for replies. It is common for long-time jobless ness,“ argues Professor John A. Challenger. Although the Internet has the potential to be very useful for job seekers and

46、 it has become the primary tool for many, Challenger believes that it should be considered secondary to the traditional technique of meeting would-be employers in person.In addition to slowing job search efforts, the Internet is making the hiring process longer for the employer. In a survey of 5,000

47、 hiring managers by an online resume site, 72 % said that a majority of the resumes they received in response to an online job posting did not match the positions description.“The more unrelated resumes managers have to go through in order to select the few to bring in for interviews, the longer it

48、takes to fill the position,“ points out Challenger. “One result of this has been the increased use of screening software by employers. This will make it even more difficult for job seekers to get their resumes in front of the hiring executive for an interview.“All of this is not to say that the Inte

49、rnet has not revolutionized job hunting. It has certainly made it easier for someone in San Francisco, for example, to search for job openings in Miami. In addition, the ability to conduct keyword searches has reduced the amount of time it takes to find the type of position a person is seeking.“Job seekers must l
