【详解】考查状语从句的省略。句意：虽然被取笑肥胖，但她仍然对自己的日常生活表现有信心。be
teased
about
sth.表示“被拿某事取笑”。although引导的让步状语从句，从句的主语和主句的主语一致，且有be动词，所以可以省略从句的主语和be。本句可以还原为Although
she
is
about
fatness，she
still
has
confidence
in
her
performance
of
daily
life.
故选A。

likely
to
do
sth.可能做某事；be
about
to
do
sth.马上就要做某事，与when连用；be
due
to
do
sth.预定好了做某事。根据句意，可知火车离开是事先预定好的事情，故D项正确。

【解析】
【分析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：为了测试哪些食物更适合长途太空旅行，神舟六号的宇航员有多达50种菜肴可供选择。动词不定式作定语如果与它所修饰的词是动宾关系，当不定式动作是由主语发出时,不定式要用主动形式；不定式动作不是由主语发出时，要用被动语态。再者，50种菜肴是宇航员进行选择的范围而不是选择的目标，所以
choose后要加介词from。故选C。
8.

A
A
person,
like
a
commodity,
needs
packaging.
But
going
too
far
is
absolutely
undesirable.
A
little
exaggeration(夸张)
will
do
no
harm
when
it
shows
the
person’s
unique
qualities
to
their
advantages.
To
show
personal
attractiveness
in
a
casual
and
natural
way,
it
is
important
for
one
to
have
a
clear
knowledge
of
oneself.
A
skilled
packager
knows
how
to
add
art
to
nature
without
any
signs
of
embellishment
so
that
the
person
so
packaged
is
not
a
commodity,
but
a
human
being,
lively
and
lovely.
A
young
person,
especially
a
female,
shining
with
beauty
and
full
of
life,
has
all
the
favor
granted.
Youth
however,
comes
and
goes
in
a
flash.
Packaging
for
the
middle-aged
is
primarily
to
hide
the
marks
made
by
years.
If
you
still
enjoy
life
enough
to
keep
self-confidence
and
work
at
pioneering
work,
you
are
unique
in
your
natural
qualities,
and
your
attractiveness
and
grace
will
remain.
Elderly
people
are
beautiful
if
their
river
of
life
has
been,
through
plains,
mountains
and
jungles,
running
its
course
as
it
should.
You
have
really
lived
your
life,
which
now
arrives
at
a
self
-
satisfied
stage
of
quietness
and
calmness
with
no
interest
in
fame
or
wealth.
There
is
no
need
to
make
use
of
hair
dyeing.
The
snow-capped
mountain
itself
is
a
beautiful
scene
of
fairyland.
Let
your
looks
change
from
young
to
old
in
step
with
the
natural
ageing
process
so
as
to
keep
in
harmony
with
nature,
for
harmony
itself
is
beauty,
while
the
other
way
round
will
only
end
in
unpleasantness.
To
be
in
the
company
of
the
elderly
is
like
reading
a
thick
book
of
good
edition,
which
attracts
one
so
much
that
one
is
unwilling
to
part
with
it.
As
long
as
one
finds
where
one
stands,
one
knows
how
to
package
oneself,
just
as
a
commodity
sets
up
its
brand
by
the
right
packaging.
41.
The
underlined
word
in
the
first
paragraph
is
closest
to
the
word
________
in
meaning.
A.
decoration
B.
clarification
C.
movement
D.
identification
42.
For
the
middle-aged,
attractiveness
________
.
A.
hardly
exists
B.
is
the
strongest
C.
comes
from
the
inside
D.
comes
from
the
appearance
43.
According
to
the
author,
if
you
want
to
keep
in
harmony
with
nature,
you
should
________.
A.
dye
your
hair
B.
make
up
at
a
young
age
C.
follow
the
ageing
process
D.
give
up
fame
and
wealth
44.
The
underlined

means
that
elderly
people
________.

are
usually
packaged
like
a
finely-made

B.
experience
a

and
have
rich
knowledge

do
a

of
traveling

B
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。人和商品一样也需要包装，适当的包装会让人更加有魅力，但是过度的包装会适得其反，实际上每个年龄阶段都有自己独特的美，所以作者认为我们要遵循变老的过程,和自然和谐。
【41题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章第一段划线词前句“A
skilled
packager
knows
how
to
add
art
to
nature(一个有技巧的包装者知道如何将艺术融入自然)”和后句“so
packaged
is
not
a
commodity,
but
a
human
being,
lively
and
lovely.(这时被包装的人不再是商品，而是活生生的人。)”可知，一个有技巧的包装者知道怎么增加自然的美而不留下任何装饰的痕迹。所以
embellishment为“装饰”之意，与decoration同义。故选A。
【42题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Packaging
for
the
middle-aged
is
primarily
to
hide
the
marks
made
by
years.
If
you
still
enjoy
life
enough
to
keep
self-confidence
and
work
at
pioneering
work,
you
are
unique
in
your
natural
qualities,
and
your
attractiveness
and
grace
will
remain.(中年人的包装主要是为了掩盖岁月留下的痕迹。如果你的生命中依然充满自信，并为自己的事业而努力，那么你的气质是独一无二的，你的魅力和优雅会一直存在。)”可知，对于中年人来说吸引力是来自于内在的。故选C。
【43题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Let
your
looks

from
young
to
old
in
step
with
the
natural
ageing

so

to
keep
in

with
nature,
for
harmony
itself
is
beauty,
while
the
other
way
round
will
only
end

(人该年轻时就年轻，该年老时就年老，这就是与自然的和谐。和谐就是美，反之就是丑。)”可知，如果你要和自然保持和谐应该遵循变老的过程。故选C。
【44题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章第二段“To
be
in
the
company
of
the
elderly
is
like
reading
a
thick
book
of
good
edition,
which
attracts
one
so
much
that
one
is
unwilling
to
part
with
it.(
和老年人在一起就像读一本好书，很吸引人，令人爱不释手。)”可知，这句话将老人比喻成一本厚厚的书，所以这句话是说老年人经历了很多，有丰富的人生知识。故选B。
B
Research
has
shown
that
85
percent
of
communication
is
nonverbal,
so
choosing
what
to
wear
to
an
interview
is
clearly
an
important
part
of
your
overall
presentation.
It
won’t
make
up
for
weak
answers,
but
it
can
communicate
some
positive
things
about
your
personality
and
what
you
might
be
like
to
work
with.
·
Blue：You
can’t
go
wrong
with
darker
shades
of
blue,
especially
navy.
Choosing
from
this
powerful
color
will
project
an
image
of
someone
who
is
in
control.
From
the
interviewer’s
point
of
view,
the
color
blue
suggests
calm,
stability,
trust,
truth,
confidence
and
security.
These
are
all
great?messages
to
send
without
saying
a
word.
·
Gray:?After
blue,
gray
is
the
second
most
popular
color
to
wear
for
an
interview.
Like
darker
blue,
it’s
not
a
distracting
color
to
the
interviewer,
which
means
they’ll
be
focused
more
on
what
you’re
saying
and
how
you’re
saying
it.
Gray
means
sophistication
（老成）,
so
use
it
to
your
advantage.
·
Black:?This
is
a
commanding
color
and
represents
authority.
Black
also
suggests
excitement,
so
use
it
carefully
when
putting
together
your
interview
outfit.
You
may
want
to
use
it
as
an
accent
（着重色）
—like
in
a
scarf
or
tie,
for
instance—rather
than
as
the
primary
color.
·
Red：This
is
an
extremely
powerful
color.
It’s
so
strong
that
you
should
only
use
it
as
an
accent
color.
Reds
are
associated
with
energy,
passion,
desire,
power
and
aggression.
People
think
of
intensity
（紧张）
and
passion
when
they
see
the
color
red,
so
use
it
carefully
or
it
could
send
the
wrong
message
to
the
interviewer.
·
White：White
shirts
and
blouses
are
always
appropriate.
It
sends
the
message
of
simplicity,
cleanliness,
precision
and
goodness.

【45题详解】
主旨大意题。文章开篇指出面试时穿着的颜色搭配会传达重要信息，接着介绍了蓝、灰、黑、红、白五种颜色所传达的信息。所以“What
the
Colors
of
Your
Clothes
Say
about

【46题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“It
won’t
make
up

weak
answers,
but
it
can
communicate
some
positive
things
about
your
personality
and
what
you
might
be
like
to
work
with.(
这并不能弥补你回答的不足，但可以传达出你性格中一些积极的方面，以及你可能会成为什么样的人。)”可知，着装的色彩能够传达关于面试者个性的重要信息，因此需要谨慎选择着装。故选B。
【47题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“From
the
interviewer’s
point
of
view,
the
color
blue
suggests
calm,
stability,
trust,

confidence
and
security.(从面试官的角度来看，蓝色意味着冷静、稳定、信任、真实、自信和安全。)”可知，蓝色代表着冷静、稳定、信任、真实、自信和安全。①④⑤符合题意。故选C。
【48题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“It
sends
the
message
of
simplicity,
cleanliness,

【49题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第五段“People
think
of
intensity
（紧张）
and
passion
when
they
see
the
color
red,
so
use
it
carefully
or
it
could
send
the
wrong
message
to
the

When
your
parents
advise
you
to
“get
an
education”
in
order
to
raise
your
income,
they
tell
you
only
half
the
truth.
What
they
really
mean
is
to
get
just
enough
education
to
provide
manpower（人力资源）for
your
society,
but
not
so
much
that
you
prove
an
embarrassment
to
your
society.
Get
a
high
school
diploma,
at
least.
Without
that,
you
will
be
occupationally
dead
unless
your
name
happens
to
be
George
Bernard
Shaw
or
Thomas
Alva
Edison,
and
you
can
successfully
dropout
in
grade
school.
Get
a
college
degree,
if
possible.
With
a
B.
A.,
you
are
on
the
launching
pad.
But
now
you
have
to
start
to
put
on
the
brakes.
If
you
go
for
a
master’s
degree,
make
sure
it
is
an
M.B.A.,
and
the
famous
law
of
diminishing(逐渐减少的)
returns
begins
to
take
effect.
Do
you
know,
for
instance,
that
long-haul
truck
drivers
earn
more
per
year
than
full
professors?
Yes,
the
average
salary
for
those
truckers
was
$24000
while
the
full
professors
managed
to
earn
just
$23030.
A
doctorate
is
the
highest
degree
you
can
get.
Except
for
a
few
specialized
fields
such
as
physics
or
chemistry
where
the
degree
can
quickly
be
turned
to
industrial
or
commercial
purposes,
if
you
pursue
such
a
degree
in
any
other
field,
you
will
face
a
future
which
is
not
bright.
There
are
more
doctors
unemployed
or
underemployed
in
this
country
than
any
other
part
of
the
world.
If
you
become
a
doctor
in
English
or
history
or
anthropology
or
political
science
or
languages
or—worst
of
all—in
philosophy,
you
run
the
risk
of
becoming
overeducated
for
our
national
demands.
Not
for
our
needs,
mind
you,
but
for
our
demands.
Thousands
of
doctors
are
selling
shoes,
driving
cars,
waiting
on
table,
and
endlessly
filling
out
applications
month
after
month.
They
may
also
take
a
job
in
some
high
school
or
backwater(闭塞)
college
that
pays
much
less
than
the
doorkeeper
earns.
You
can
equate
the
level
of
income
with
the
level
of
education
only
so

A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了教育是提供工作安全和财政安全的手段，是满足国家对技术工人需求的手段，有时也会存在学历和收入不成正比的情况。
【50题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“What
they
really
mean
is
to
get
just
enough
education
to
provide
manpower（人力资源）for
your
society,
but
not
so
much
that
you
prove
an
embarrassment
to
your
society.
”（他们真正的意思是获得足够的教育来为你的社会提供人力，但并不是让你的社会感到尴尬。）可知，社会对教育的期望是培养出那些可以满足国家需求的人力资源，故D
正确。
【51题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段
“If
you
become
a
doctor
in
English
or
history
or
anthropology
or
political
science
or
languages
or—worst
of
all—in
philosophy,
you
run
the
risk
of
becoming
overeducated
for
our
national
demands.
Not
for
our
needs,
mind
you,
but
for
our
demands.”（如果你成为一名英语、历史、人类学、政治科学、语言或最糟糕的哲学博士，你就有可能因为我们国家的需求而接受过多的教育。请注意，不是为了我们的需要，而是为了我们的要求。）可知，许多医生失业是因为对社会不能带来商业利益，故B正确。
【52题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段
“Far
enough,
that
is,
to
make
you
useful
to
the
gross
national
product,
but
not
so
far
that
nobody
can
turn
much
of
a
profit
on
you.”（也就是说，足够让你对国民生产总值有所贡献，但又不能让任何人从你身上获得太多利润。）可知，社会只对能给其带来经济利益的人感兴趣，故C正确。
【53题详解】
细节理解题。由第四段“Do
you
know,
for
instance,
that
long-haul
truck
drivers
earn
more
per
year
than
full
professors?
Yes,
the
average
salary
for
those
truckers
was
$24000
while
the
full
professors
managed
to
earn
just
$23030.”（例如，你知道长途卡车司机的年薪比正式教授高吗？是的，这些卡车司机的平均工资是24000美元，而正教授的平均工资只有23030美元。）可知，学历越高不一定挣钱就越多，C不正确。故选C。
【54题详解】
推断判断题。根据第二段“Get
a
high
school
diploma,
at
least.
Without
that,
you
will
be
occupationally
dead
”（至少要拿到高中文凭。否则，你就死定了）及第五段“A
doctorate
is
the
highest
degree
you
can
get.
Except
for
a
few
specialized
fields
such
as
physics
or
chemistry
where
the
degree
can
quickly
be
turned
to
industrial
or
commercial
purposes,
”（博士学位是你能获得的最高学位。除了一些专业领域，如物理或化学，这些专业的学位可以很快转为工业或商业用途，）可知，作者只是把教育当作一种提供工作安全和财政安全的手段，是满足国家对技术工人需求的手段。故A
正确。
D
Several
weeks
ago,
a
mysterious
Christmas
card
dropped
through
our
mailbox.
The
envelope
was
addressed
to
a
man
named
Raoul,
who,
I
was
relatively
certain,
did
not
live
with
us.
The
envelope
wasn’t
sealed,
so
I
opened
it.
The
inside
of
the
card
was
blank.
Ed,
my
husband,
explained
that
the
card
was
both
from
and
to
the
newspaper
deliveryman.
His
name
was
apparently
Raoul,
and
Raoul
wanted
a
holiday
tip.
We
were
meant
to
put
a
check
inside
the
card
and
then
drop
the
envelope
in
the
mail.
When
your
services
are
finished
at
4
a.m.,
you
can’t
simply
hang
around,
like
a
hotel
bellboy
expecting
a
tip.
You
have
to
be
direct.
So
I
wrote
a
nice
holiday
greeting
to
this
man
who,
in
my
imagination,
fires
The
New
York
Times
from
his
bike
aimed
at
our
front
door,
causing
more
noise
with
mere
newsprint
than
most
people
manage
with
sophisticated(复杂的)
black
market
fireworks.
With
a
start,
I
realized
that
perhaps
the
reason
for
the
4
a.m.
wake-up
noise
was
not
ordinary
rudeness
but
carefully
executed
spite(怨恨):
I
had
not
tipped
Raoul
in
Christmas
past.
I
honestly
hadn’t
realized
I
was
supposed
to.
This
was
the
first
time
he’d
used
the
card
tactic(策略).
So
I
got
out
my
checkbook.
Somewhere
along
the
line,
holiday
tipping
went
from
an
optional
thank-you
for
a
year
of
services
to
a
Mafia-style
protection
racket
(收保护费组织).
Several
days
later,
I
was
bringing
our
garbage
bins
back
when
I
noticed
an
envelope
taped
to
one
of
the
lids.
The
outside
of
the
envelope
said
MICKEY.
It
had
to
be
another
tip
request,
this
time
from
our
garbage
collector.
Unlike
Raoul,
Mickey
hadn’t
enclosed
his
own
Christmas
card
from
me.
In
a
way,
I
appreciated
the
directness.
“I
know
you
don’t
care
how
merry
my
Christmas
is,
and
that’s
fine,”
the
gesture
said.
“I
want
$30,
or
I’ll
‘forget’
to
empty
your
garbage
bin
some
hot
summer
day.”
I
put
a
check
in
the
envelope
and
taped
it
back
to
the
bin.
The
next
morning,
Ed
noticed
that
the
envelope
was
gone,
though
the
trash
hadn’t
yet
been
picked
up:
“Someone
stole
Mickey’s
tip!”
Ed
was
quite
certain.
He
made
me
call
the
bank
and
cancel
the
check.
But
Ed
had
been
wrong.
Two
weeks
later,
Mickey
left
a
letter
from
the
bank
on
our
steps.
The
letter
informed
Mickey
that
the
check,
which
he
had
tried
to
cash,
had
been
cancelled.
The
following
Tuesday
morning,
when
Ed
saw
a
truck
outside,
he
ran
out
with
his
wallet.
“Are
you
Mickey?”
The
man
looked
at
him
with
scorn(轻蔑).
“Mickey
is
the
garbageman.
I
am
the
recycling.”
Not
only
had
Ed
insulted(侮辱)
this
man
by
suggesting
that
he
was
a
garbageman,
but
he
had
obviously
neglected
to
tip
him.
Ed
ran
back
inside
for
more
funds.
Then
he
noticed
that
the
driver
of
the
truck
had
been
watching
the
whole
incident.
He
peeled
off
another
twenty
and
looked
around,
waving
bills
in
the
air.
“Anyone
else?”
Had
we
consulted
the
website
of
the
Emily
Post
Institute,
this
embarrassing
break
of
etiquette
(礼节)
could
have
been
avoided.
Under
“trash/recycling
collectors”
in
the
institute’s
Holiday
Tipping
Guidelines,
it
says:
“$10
to
$30
each.”
You
may
or
may
not
wish
to
know
that
your
hairdresser,
mailman
and
UPS
guy
all
expect
a
holiday
tip.
55.

【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了我收到了一张空白的圣诞卡片，里面需要放入小费，然后把这张卡片放回邮箱。最开始我没有给与小费，便遭到了报复，于是我很不情愿地放了小费。几天后，清洁工Mickey也来索要圣诞节小费。最后在咨询网站后，我才意识到大家都希望收到假日小费。

【57题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“I
honestly
hadn’t
realized
I
was
supposed
to.

letter
informed
Mickey
that
the
check,
which
he
had
tried
to
cash,
had
been

I’ll
‘forget’
to

of译为“对……厌烦”。故将with改为of。
2.
考查时态。句意见上一题。根据全文时态可知，本文讲述过去发生的事情需要用一般过去时。故将decide改为decided。
3.
考查非谓语动词。句意：放学后，我和一个叫Jack的朋友去了一家位于市中心的商店。句子谓语动词为went
to，所以非谓语动词locate要以非谓语形式出现。固定短语“be
located
in”表示“坐落于”。故将locating改为located。
4.
考查冠词。句意：我们一进商店，一辆黑色的自行车就吸引了我的目光。根据句意可知，此处表示“一脸黑色的自行车”，表示泛指，所以在可数名词bicycle前用不定冠词。black又是以辅音音素开头的，所以用不定冠词a。故将The改为A。
5.
考查副词。句意：它看起来如此的酷以至于我迫不及待地想去骑它。cool是形容词，所以需要用副词so来构成固定短语“so......that”译为“如此……以至于……”。故将such改为so。
6.考查形容词。句意：店主告诉我们这是最新款的自行车。根据句意可知，此处表示“最新款的自行车”，所以用形容词latest(最新的)来做定语修饰名词bicycle。故将lately改为latest。
7.
考查定语从句。句意见上一题。分析句子结构可知，此处为定语从句，先行词为800dollars是物，在定语从句中作主语，所以用关系代词which引导非限制性定语从句。故将was前的that改为which。
8.
考查动词。句意：我只是买不起这么贵的。动词afford表示“承担得起、买得起”时为及物动词后面直接加宾语，所以介词for是多余的。故删去afford后的for。
9.
考查人称代词。句意：我选择了另一辆自行车，这辆车只要我200元。根据“I
chose
another
one”可知，这辆车只需要我付200元。故将him改为me。
10.
考查连词。句意：它并不完美，但比旧的要好得多。根据句意可知，虽然车子不完美，但是比以前的更好，所以此处存在转折关系。故将and改为but。

A
A
person,
like
a
commodity,
needs
packaging.
But
going
too
far
is
absolutely
undesirable.
A
little
exaggeration(夸张)
will
do
no
harm
when
it
shows
the
person’s
unique
qualities
to
their
advantages.
To
show
personal
attractiveness
in
a
casual
and
natural
way,
it
is
important
for
one
to
have
a
clear
knowledge
of
oneself.
A
skilled
packager
knows
how
to
add
art
to
nature
without
any
signs
of
embellishment
so
that
the
person
so
packaged
is
not
a
commodity,
but
a
human
being,
lively
and
lovely.
A
young
person,
especially
a
female,
shining
with
beauty
and
full
of
life,
has
all
the
favor
granted.
Youth
however,
comes
and
goes
in
a
flash.
Packaging
for
the
middle-aged
is
primarily
to
hide
the
marks
made
by
years.
If
you
still
enjoy
life
enough
to
keep
self-confidence
and
work
at
pioneering
work,
you
are
unique
in
your
natural
qualities,
and
your
attractiveness
and
grace
will
remain.
Elderly
people
are
beautiful
if
their
river
of
life
has
been,
through
plains,
mountains
and
jungles,
running
its
course
as
it
should.
You
have
really
lived
your
life,
which
now
arrives
at
a
self
-
satisfied
stage
of
quietness
and
calmness
with
no
interest
in
fame
or
wealth.
There
is
no
need
to
make
use
of
hair
dyeing.
The
snow-capped
mountain
itself
is
a
beautiful
scene
of
fairyland.
Let
your
looks
change
from
young
to
old
in
step
with
the
natural
ageing
process
so
as
to
keep
in
harmony
with
nature,
for
harmony
itself
is
beauty,
while
the
other
way
round
will
only
end
in
unpleasantness.
To
be
in
the
company
of
the
elderly
is
like
reading
a
thick
book
of
good

which
attracts
one
so
much
that
one
is
unwilling
to
part
with
it.
As
long
as
one
finds
where
one
stands,
one
knows
how
to
package
oneself,
just
as
a
commodity
sets
up
its
brand
by
the
right
packaging.

Research
has
shown
that
85
percent
of
communication
is
nonverbal,
so
choosing
what
to
wear
to
an
interview
is
clearly
an
important
part
of
your
overall
presentation.
It
won’t
make
up
for
weak
answers,
but
it
can
communicate
some
positive
things
about
your
personality
and
what
you
might
be
like
to
work
with.
·
Blue：You
can’t
go
wrong
with
darker
shades
of
blue,
especially
navy.
Choosing
from
this
powerful
color
will
project
an
image
of
someone
who
is
in
control.
From
the
interviewer’s
point
of
view,
the
color
blue
suggests
calm,
stability,
trust,
truth,
confidence
and
security.
These
are
all
great?messages
to
send
without
saying
a
word.
·
Gray:?After
blue,
gray
is
the
second
most
popular
color
to
wear
for
an
interview.
Like
darker
blue,
it’s
not
a
distracting
color
to
the
interviewer,
which
means
they’ll
be
focused
more
on
what
you’re
saying
and
how
you’re
saying
it.
Gray
means
sophistication
（老成）,
so
use
it
to
your
advantage.
·
Black:?This
is
a
commanding
color
and
represents
authority.
Black
also
suggests
excitement,
so
use
it
carefully
when
putting
together
your
interview
outfit.
You
may
want
to
use
it
as
an
accent
（着重色）
—like
in
a
scarf
or
tie,
for
instance—rather
than
as
the
primary
color.
·
Red：This
is
an
extremely
powerful
color.
It’s
so
strong
that
you
should
only
use
it
as
an
accent
color.
Reds
are
associated
with
energy,
passion,
desire,
power
and
aggression.
People
think
of
intensity
（紧张）
and
passion
when
they
see
the
color
red,
so
use
it
carefully
or
it
could
send
the
wrong
message
to
the
interviewer.
·
White：White
shirts
and
blouses
are
always
appropriate.
It
sends
the
message
of
simplicity,
cleanliness,
precision
and
goodness.

When
your
parents
advise
you
to
“get
an
education”
in
order
to
raise
your
income,
they
tell
you
only
half
the
truth.
What
they
really
mean
is
to
get
just
enough
education
to
provide
manpower（人力资源）for
your
society,
but
not
so
much
that
you
prove
an
embarrassment
to
your
society.
Get
a
high
school
diploma,
at
least.
Without
that,
you
will
be
occupationally
dead
unless
your
name
happens
to
be
George
Bernard
Shaw
or
Thomas
Alva
Edison,
and
you
can
successfully
dropout
in
grade
school.
Get
a
college
degree,
if
possible.
With
a
B.
A.,
you
are
on
the
launching
pad.
But
now
you
have
to
start
to
put
on
the
brakes.
If
you
go
for
a
master’s
degree,
make
sure
it
is
an
M.B.A.,
and
the
famous
law
of
diminishing(逐渐减少的)
returns
begins
to
take
effect.
Do
you
know,
for
instance,
that
long-haul
truck
drivers
earn
more
per
year
than
full
professors?
Yes,
the
average
salary
for
those
truckers
was
$24000
while
the
full
professors
managed
to
earn
just
$23030.
A
doctorate
is
the
highest
degree
you
can
get.
Except
for
a
few
specialized
fields
such
as
physics
or
chemistry
where
the
degree
can
quickly
be
turned
to
industrial
or
commercial
purposes,
if
you
pursue
such
a
degree
in
any
other
field,
you
will
face
a
future
which
is
not
bright.
There
are
more
doctors
unemployed
or
underemployed
in
this
country
than
any
other
part
of
the
world.
If
you
become
a
doctor
in
English
or
history
or
anthropology
or
political
science
or
languages
or—worst
of
all—in
philosophy,
you
run
the
risk
of
becoming
overeducated
for
our
national
demands.
Not
for
our
needs,
mind
you,
but
for
our
demands.
Thousands
of
doctors
are
selling
shoes,
driving
cars,
waiting
on
table,
and
endlessly
filling
out
applications
month
after
month.
They
may
also
take
a
job
in
some
high
school
or
backwater(闭塞)
college
that
pays
much
less
than
the
doorkeeper
earns.
You
can
equate
the
level
of
income
with
the
level
of
education
only
so
far.
Far
enough,
that
is,
to
make
you
useful
to
the
gross
national
product,
but
not
so
far
that
nobody
can
turn
much
of
a
profit
on
you.

security
and
a

C.
more

D.

D
Several
weeks
ago,
a
mysterious
Christmas
card
dropped
through
our
mailbox.
The
envelope
was
addressed
to
a
man
named
Raoul,
who,
I
was
relatively
certain,
did
not
live
with
us.
The
envelope
wasn’t
sealed,
so
I
opened
it.
The
inside
of
the
card
was
blank.
Ed,
my
husband,
explained
that
the
card
was
both
from
and
to
the
newspaper
deliveryman.
His
name
was
apparently
Raoul,
and
Raoul
wanted
a
holiday
tip.
We
were
meant
to
put
a
check
inside
the
card
and
then
drop
the
envelope
in
the
mail.
When
your
services
are
finished
at
4
a.m.,
you
can’t
simply
hang
around,
like
a
hotel
bellboy
expecting
a
tip.
You
have
to
be
direct.
So
I
wrote
a
nice
holiday
greeting
to
this
man
who,
in
my
imagination,
fires
The
New
York
Times
from
his
bike
aimed
at
our
front
door,
causing
more
noise
with
mere
newsprint
than
most
people
manage
with
sophisticated(复杂的)
black
market
fireworks.
With
a
start,
I
realized
that
perhaps
the
reason
for
the
4
a.m.
wake-up
noise
was
not
ordinary
rudeness
but
carefully
executed
spite(怨恨):
I
had
not
tipped
Raoul
in
Christmas
past.
I
honestly
hadn’t
realized
I
was
supposed
to.
This
was
the
first
time
he’d
used
the
card
tactic(策略).
So
I
got
out
my
checkbook.
Somewhere
along
the
line,
holiday
tipping
went
from
an
optional
thank-you
for
a
year
of
services
to
a
Mafia-style
protection
racket
(收保护费组织).
Several
days
later,
I
was
bringing
our
garbage
bins
back
when
I
noticed
an
envelope
taped
to
one
of
the
lids.
The
outside
of
the
envelope
said
MICKEY.
It
had
to
be
another
tip
request,
this
time
from
our
garbage
collector.
Unlike
Raoul,
Mickey
hadn’t
enclosed
his
own
Christmas
card
from
me.
In
a
way,
I
appreciated
the
directness.
“I
know
you
don’t
care
how
merry
my
Christmas
is,
and
that’s
fine,”
the
gesture
said.
“I
want
$30,
or
I’ll
‘forget’
to
empty
your
garbage
bin
some
hot
summer
day.”
I
put
a
check
in
the
envelope
and
taped
it
back
to
the
bin.
The
next
morning,
Ed
noticed
that
the
envelope
was
gone,
though
the
trash
hadn’t
yet
been
picked
up:
“Someone
stole
Mickey’s
tip!”
Ed
was
quite
certain.
He
made
me
call
the
bank
and
cancel
the
check.
But
Ed
had
been
wrong.
Two
weeks
later,
Mickey
left
a
letter
from
the
bank
on
our
steps.
The
letter
informed
Mickey
that
the
check,
which
he
had
tried
to
cash,
had
been
cancelled.
The
following
Tuesday
morning,
when
Ed
saw
a
truck
outside,
he
ran
out
with
his
wallet.
“Are
you
Mickey?”
The
man
looked
at
him
with
scorn(轻蔑).
“Mickey
is
the
garbageman.
I
am
the
recycling.”
Not
only
had
Ed
insulted(侮辱)
this
man
by
suggesting
that
he
was
a
garbageman,
but
he
had
obviously
neglected
to
tip
him.
Ed
ran
back
inside
for
more
funds.
Then
he
noticed
that
the
driver
of
the
truck
had
been
watching
the
whole
incident.
He
peeled
off
another
twenty
and
looked
around,
waving
bills
in
the
air.
“Anyone
else?”
Had
we
consulted
the
website
of
the
Emily
Post
Institute,
this
embarrassing
break
of
etiquette
(礼节)
could
have
been
avoided.
Under
“trash/recycling
collectors”
in
the
institute’s
Holiday
Tipping
Guidelines,
it
says:
“$10
to
$30
each.”
You
may
or
may
not
wish
to
know
that
your
hairdresser,
mailman
and
UPS
guy
all
expect
a
holiday
tip.

My
bicycle
went
wrong
again.
Tired
with
repairing
it
again
and
again,
I
decide
to
buy
a
new
one.
After
school,
I
went
to
a
shop
locating
in
the
center
of
the
city
with
a
friend
called
Jack.
The
black
bicycle
attracted
my
eyes
as
soon
as
we
went
into
the
store.
It
looked
such
cool
that
I
could
hardly
wait
to
ride
it.
The
shopkeeper
told
us
that
it
was
the
lately
bicycle.
He
wanted
to
charge
me
800
yuan,
that
was
too
expensive
for
me.
I
just
couldn’t
afford
for
such
an
expensive
one.
Then
I
chose
another
one,
which
cost
him
only
200
yuan.
It
was
not
perfect,
and
it
was
much
better
than
the
old
one.
