常州市教育学会学业水平监测高二期末英语试卷 Classical music deals with adult emotions and ideas.__1__, you can still love aspects of it as a kid. If you continue to be attracted to what you have heard, your understanding will only___2___ as the years pass by. You don’t need to be ___3___ trained, or incredibly smart, to “get it.” As a boy growing up in New York City in the 1950s, I first heard the overture(序曲) to Wagner’s The Flying Dutchman as the ___4___ music for a science-fiction television show called Captain Video. It was absolutely exciting. When I first _ 5 ___the opera many years later, that childhood memory of the music was still somewhere in the ___6___ reaches of my mind. Music can be written to bring a(n) ___7___ sound, mood or scene into mind, yet can be heard differently in different contexts. Wagner’s overture gets our attention with a heroic-sounding ___8___ from the horns and then a description of a stormy sea. As a kid, I ___9___ knew the hero was Captain Video. When I grew up, I came to understand that the very first notes were ___10___ to represent the scream of a ghost seeking redemption(救赎). The notes were the same, but I certainly was not, and yet there was ___11___ in revisiting something from my childhood with the ___12__ of an adult’s knowledge. But does it still happen today That question was ___13___ last summer when my two great nephews, ten-year-old twins, finished playing with Legos. One of them ___14___singing the Magic Flute from Mozart. The other joined in, singing in innocent ___15___ They kept going, but the words were__ 16__ “What’s that ” I asked. The answer was about a famous cartoon: “Captain Underpants(内裤超人)!” A time will come when they hear a performance of the Magic Flute and the weak memories of their youth will still be ___17___ to the classical music they heard from the cartoon, even though the original ___18___ of the music had nothing to do with it.

Experience the highs and the lows,the postitives and the negatives,and all the moods present between the various extremes. Don't focus on simply being happy. Focus on living a well rounded,seasoned life. Focus on achieving completeness. Yes,happiness is part of this completeness,but so is sadness,difficulty,frustration,and failure. And overcoming these latter points supports your personal growth far more than constant happiness. You must have heard these words like how happy it is to be a child. But would you honestly change places with a child？Think of the years at school. The years spent living in continual fear of examinations and school reports. Every movement you make，every thought you think is observed by some adults. Think of the times you had to go to bed early，you had to eat hateful things that was supposed to be good for you. Remember how “gentle” pressure was given to you with words like “If you don't do as I say,I will...”I'm sure you will never forget！ Even so，these are only part of children's trouble. No matter how kind and loving parents may be，children often suffer from some terrible and illogical fears since they can't understand the world around them. They often have such fear in the dark or in the dreams. Adults can share their fears with other adults while children have to face their fears alone. But the most painful part of childhood is a period when you begin to go out of it，the period when you go into adolescence. Teenagers start to be against their parents and this causes them great unhappiness. There is a complete lack of self confidence during this time. Adolescents pay much attention to their appearance and the impression they make on others. They feel shy，awkward and clumsy. Feelings are strong and hearts are easily broken. Teenagers experience moments of great happiness or black despair. And through this period，adults seem to be more unkind than ever. 【探索发现】 1.Read the passage carefully and think of a suitable title for it.

[分析] 本句是一个主从复合句。when you are struggling to control your feelings为when引导的时间状语从句，主句you wish后是省略了that的宾语从句，动词forget后的that从句为另外一个宾语从句。 [译文] 另一方面，当你努力想控制自己的情感时，你希望他们能更加体贴，更有耐心——有时候他们忘记了成长是一个艰难的过程。 2．(教材P17)Just remember that it is completely normal to struggle with the stress that parent child tensions create，and that you and your parents can work together to improve your relationship. [分析] 本句为祈使句，动词remember后接两个that引导的宾语从句，第一个宾语从句中that parent child tensions create为定语从句，修饰先行词the stress。 [译文] 只要记住，无法轻松应对亲子关系紧张带来的压力是完全正常的，并且你和父母可以共同努力，改善关系。 教材高考1.When you disagree with your parents，take a minute to clam down and try to understand the situation from their point of view.(2019·全国卷Ⅰ)This view is especially evident on Kilimanjaro as climbers go through five ecosystems(生态系统) in the space of a few kilometers.2.After you have thought it through，explain your actions and feelings calmly，listen carefully，and address their concerns.(2019·江苏卷)He felt concerned about his illness.3.Just remember that it is completely normal to struggle with the stress that parent child tensions create.(2019·全国卷Ⅱ)The stress from working overtime.

Suddenly I felt as if I were 12 years old, happy and relaxed, sitting in her kitchen. I can remember what her house looked like, though it was sold 20 years ago – her three-level plant stand, the plates lining the walls, the window over her sink – but these visual memories don’t have the power that smell does. The funny thing is, I can’t even begin to describe the odor(气味) that was so distinctively hers. The best I can do is this: “It smelled like my grandmother’s house.” It’s a common experience, and a common linguistic( 语言学的) problem. In cultures worldwide, people have powerful olfactory memories. This odor-memory link is also called “the Proust phenomenon,” after Marcel Proust’s famous description of the feelings aroused by a cake dipped in tea in “Remembrance of Things Past.” Olfactory memories seem to be more closely bound up with emotions than are visual or auditory ones. Not all these memories are pleasant, of course, and smells can also trigger feelings of pain. It is surprisingly hard for English-speakers to describe the odors that occasion such strong emotions, however. English possesses almost no abstract smell words that pick out links or themes among unrelated aromas(芳香). We have plenty of these in the visual field. “Yellow,” for example, identifies a characteristic that bananas, lemons, some cars, some flowers, old book pages, and the sun all share. But for odors, we don’t have many more than the vague “musty” (smells old and stale) and “musky” (smells perfumey). We usually have no choice but to say that one thing smells like another – like a banana, like garlic, like diesel fuel. A few languages, though, do have a rich odor vocabulary. Linguist Asifa Majid has found that the Jahai, the Semaq Beri, and the Maniq, hunter-gatherer groups in Malaysia and Thailand, employ a wide range of abstract smell words and can identify aromas as easily as we can colors. The Jahai have a word, for example, that describes “the seemingly dissimilar smell of petrol, smoke, bat poop, root of wild ginger and wood of wild mango.” Last year my cat got sprayed by a skunk(臭鼬), and the vet told me to wash its face with coffee to cover the bad smell. Until then, I had never realized that coffee, which I find delicious, smells remarkably like skunk spray, which I do not. Science has identified the chemicals that both share. They are called mercaptans (硫醇). But in oral English, we have no word for the underlying note that connects these two odors. If the Jahai drank coffee and encountered skunks, I bet they would. 43. The opening paragraph is mainly intended to . A. express the writer’s affection for his grandmother B. direct the readers’ attention to a linguistic problem C. tell us the odor of the grandmother’s house stayed the same D. prove smell has a greater power than visual memories 44. Which of the following is related to olfactory memories A. Forming an image in mind after seeing the word “injury”. B. Feeling sympathetic when seeing a sick cat. C.

B The Jewish(犹太人）family-had-just finished supper and the woman had placed the dishes in the sink. The kitchen was quite damp and even gloomier than in the main room. It was their third apartment since the start of the war, they had abandoned the other two in a hurry. The woman came back into the room and sat down again at the table. The 3-year-old boy sat with his back straight, his eyes fixed on his father, but it was obvious that he was so sleepy that he could barely sit up. The man was smoking a cigarette. His eyes were blood-shot and he kept blinking in a funny way. This blinking had begun soon after they fled the second apartment. It was late, past ten o'clock and they could have gone to sleep, but first they had to play the game that they had been playing every day for two weeks. Even though the man tried his best and he moved very quickly, the fault was his and not the child's. The boy was. marvelous. Seeing his father put out his cigarette, he opened his blue eyes even wider. The woman, who didn't actually take part in the game, stroked the boy's hair. “We'll play the key game just one more time only today. Isn't that right " she asked her husband. He didn't answer because he was not sure. They were still two or three minutes off. He arose and walked towards the bathroom door. Then the woman called out softly, “Ding-dong. "At the sound of the bell ringing so musically from his mother's lips, the boy jumped up from his chair and ran to the front door, which was separated from the main room by a narrow corridor. “Who's there " he asked. The woman, remaining in her chair, shut her eyes tight as if feeling a sudden, sharp pain. “I'l1 open up in a minute, I'm just looking for the keys, "the child called out. Then he ran back to the main room, making a lot of noise with his feet. He ran in circles around the table, pulled out one of the sideboard drawers, and slammed it shut. “Just a minute, I can't find them, I don't know where Mama put them, "he yelled, then dragged the chair across the room, climbed onto it, and reached up to the top of the shelf. “I found them!”he shouted triumphantly. Then he got down from the chair, pushed it back to the table, and calmly walked to the door and opened it. “Shut the door, darling, "the woman said softly. "You were perfect.” The child didn't hear what she said. He stood in the middle of the room, staring at the closed bathroom door. “Shut the door, the woman repeated in a tired flat voice. Every evening she repeated the same words, and every evening he stared at the closed bathroom door. At last it opened. The man was pale and his clothes were streaked with lime and dust. He stood there, eyes blinking in that funny way. “Well How did it go " asked the woman. “I still need more time. He has to look for them longer. I slip in sideways all right, but then. . . It's so tight in there that when I turn. . . And he's got to make more noise-he should stamp his feet louder. " The child didn't take his eyes off him. “Say something to him, "the woman whispered. ＂You did a good job, little one, "he said mechanically. “That's right, ”the woman said, “you're really doing a wonderful job, darling. You act just like a grown-up. And you do know that if someone should really ring the doorbell when Mama is at work, everything will depend on you And what will you say when they ask you about your parents ” “Mama's at work. ” “And Papa "He was silent. “And Papa "the man screamed in terror. The child turned pale. “And Papa ”the man repeated more calmly. “He's dead, ”＂the child answered and threw himself at his father, who was standing right beside him, but already long dead to the people who would really ring the bell. 47.

She was disappointed because the boy's movement betrayed again where her husband was. D. She was impatient because she was asked to repeat these words again and again every evening. 50. What is the best title of the passage A. A Scary Night B. The Key Game C. My Father Is Dead D. An Innocent Boy C Light and bright, cheap and cheerful: IKEA’s 400-plus outlets (专营店) in 49 countries all run on the same central principle. Customers do as much of the work as possible, in the belief they are having fun and saving money. You drive to a distant warehouse built on cheap out-of-town land. Inside, you enter a maze (迷宫) — no shortcuts allowed — where every twist reveals new pared with the prices of other outlets, IKEA’s are much lower. You load up your trolley (手推车) with impulse buys-a clock, storage boxes, tools and more chairs than you will ever use. You drag cardboard boxes, cupboards and tables into your car and reward yourself for your economy and good taste. Then you drive home and put your prizes together. You are satisfied with the bargains. IKEA is satisfied with your money. The company’s name was a do-it-yourself job, too. IKEA stands for Ingvar Kamprad, from Elmtaryd ― his family’s farm — in Agunnaryd. That village is in the Smaland region of southern Sweden. Mr Kamprad founded IKEA aged 17. Well before that, he spotted a principle which would make him one of the richest men in the world that customers like buying goods at wholesale prices (批发价). First he bought matches in large quantities and sold them by the box. Aged ten, he sold pens in the similar way. Setbacks inspired him. Facing a price war against his low-cost mail-order furniture business, he defeated competitors by opening a showroom. Dealers tried to crush Mr Kamprad and banned him from their trade fairs. He slipped in, hiding in a friend’s car. When they tried to threaten his suppliers, he relied on his own workers, and secretly sold his production to communist Poland. Decades later, east Europeans freed from the planned economy drove hundreds of miles to newly opened outlets in Moscow and Warsaw. His self-discipline was world-famous. As a child, he removed the “off” button from his alarm clock to stop himself oversleeping. He rarely took a first-class seat. The wine didn’t get you there any earlier, he sniffed; having lots of money was no reason to waste it. He bought his clothes in second-hand markets, and for years drove an elderly Volvo until he had to sell it on safety grounds. He had his hair cut in poor countries to save money. Visitors admired the views, but were surprised that his house was so shabby. He worked well into his eighties. His diligence and simple way of life set a good example to his 194,000 “co-workers”. But he was not mean. The point of cutting costs was to make goods affordable, not to compromise quality. He urged his staff to reflect constantly on ways of saving money, time and space. An improved design that allows easier piling means shipping less air and more profit. Culture was more important than strategy. He disliked “exaggerated (夸张的) planning”, along with financial markets and banks. Better to make mistakes and learn from them. And use time wisely: “You can do so much in ten minutes. But ten minutes once gone are gone for good.” This did not apply to customers. The longer they stayed, the better. Mr Kamprad’s impact on modern life can be compared with that of Henry Ford and the mass-produced motor car. Furniture used to be expensive, dark and heavy. For many people, decorating a home could cost many months’ salary. IKEA made furniture not just affordable and functional, but fun. The mission was civilizational, he felt, changing how people lived and thought. His approach drew some fire. The company values struck some as unpleasant. At IKEA’s Corporate Culture Centre, lots of pictures of Mr Kamprad with his mottos can be seen everywhere. What’s worse, some parts of the supply chain seemed to have serious problems to overcome. 51. What can we learn about IKEA in Paragraph 1 A. IKEA prefers rural areas for its location. B. IKEA has 400 outlets throughout the world. C. IKEA likes to store new furniture in a maze. D. IKEA provides a lot of work for its customers. 52. The underlined two sentences in Paragraph 2 imply that ________. A. IKEA tricks you into spending more money B. you may buy bargains with impulse in IKEA C. both you and IKEA are pleased with the deal D. both you and IKEA are happy with the bargain 53. By mentioning Mr. Kamprad’s experiences before he founded IKEA, the author intends to tell us that Mr Kamprad ________. A. was likely to become a successful businessman B. preferred selling matches and pens by low prices C. had been a well-off merchant due to his principle D. enjoyed doing something promising with discipline 54. What can be inferred from paragraph 5 and 6 about Mr. Kamprad A. He never overslept due to his alarm clock being set. B. He was against drinking but for sniffing at the wine. C. He sold the old Volvo with the purpose of saving money. - D. He didn’t give up the quality of furniture for more profit. 55. Which of the following has nothing to do with Mr. Kamprad’s success in business A. The pictures and mottos of Mr. Kamprad. B. The setbacks Mr. Kamprad experienced. C. Mr. Kamprad’s principles of management. D. Mr. Kamprad’s self-discipline and diligence. 第四部分：七选五（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） The factors that cause youth unemployment often differ among regions and labor systems. 56 Since firing full-time workers is so complicated and expensive, employers are unwilling to take on new staff, while people who are already employed, mainly older workers, often keep their jobs for life. In developing countries with high birthrates and very young populations, like the Philippines, growth isn’t strong enough to absorb the wave of youngsters entering the workforce each year. 57． Young people entering the workforce are often the most vulnerable（易受伤害的）in economic downturns — new employees are often the first to get sacked, while college graduates find few employers willing to hire. 58． In Spain, Italy and Japan, for instance, companies looking to gain flexibility in regulated labor markets often offer new, young staffers only short-term contracts. These contracts, which sometimes last for only a few days, usually come with low salaries and few benefits. Since such staff is temporary, employers have little intention to invest in training. Facing such obstacles, young people everywhere are finding that traditional route to success — education — isn’t paying off as much as in the past. 59． They will often be offered low-skilled jobs from waiters to supermarket clerks. A March report form the UK’s Office for National Statistics showed that the share of recent college graduates in Britain working in lower-skilled jobs rose to nearly 35% in 2011 form less than 27% a decade earlier. 60． Typical is Cairo’s Ahmed Said. He graduated from college with a business degree, and after performing the obligatory（义务的）year of military service, he applied for jobs in accounting and data entry. But Said, 24, had no luck, and today he works as a waiter at a cafe near Tahrir Square. “This was my last choice,” he says, “and this is the job that I got.” A. Young graduates often find themselves competing with more-experienced workers. B. More and more college graduates are forced to take jobs below their skill level. C. They started applying for any positions they could find in other countries. D. In some parts of the world, such jobs are all that is available to college graduates. E. Yet youth unemployment also has common roots throughout the world. F. Those young workers who do find employment are often trapped in awful contracts. G. In much of Western Europe overemphasized labor protection makes it more difficult for youths to land good jobs.

Experience the highs and the lows,the postitives and the negatives,and all the moods present between the various extremes. Don't focus on simply being happy. Focus on living a well rounded,seasoned life. Focus on achieving completeness. Yes,happiness is part of this completeness,but so is sadness,difficulty,frustration,and failure. And overcoming these latter points supports your personal growth far more than constant happiness. You must have heard these words like how happy it is to be a child. But would you honestly change places with a child？Think of the years at school. The years spent living in continual fear of examinations and school reports. Every movement you make，every thought you think is observed by some adults. Think of the times you had to go to bed early，you had to eat hateful things that was supposed to be good for you. Remember how “gentle” pressure was given to you with words like “If you don't do as I say,I will...”I'm sure you will never forget！ Even so，these are only part of children's trouble. No matter how kind and loving parents may be，children often suffer from some terrible and illogical fears since they can't understand the world around them. They often have such fear in the dark or in the dreams. Adults can share their fears with other adults while children have to face their fears alone. But the most painful part of childhood is a period when you begin to go out of it，the period when you go into adolescence. Teenagers start to be against their parents and this causes them great unhappiness. There is a complete lack of self confidence during this time. Adolescents pay much attention to their appearance and the impression they make on others. They feel shy，awkward and clumsy. Feelings are strong and hearts are easily broken. Teenagers experience moments of great happiness or black despair. And through this period，adults seem to be more unkind than ever. 【探索发现】 1.Read the passage carefully and think of a suitable title for it.

Suddenly I felt as if I were 12 years old, happy and relaxed, sitting in her kitchen. I can remember what her house looked like, though it was sold 20 years ago – her three-level plant stand, the plates lining the walls, the window over her sink – but these visual memories don’t have the power that smell does. The funny thing is, I can’t even begin to describe the odor(气味) that was so distinctively hers. The best I can do is this: “It smelled like my grandmother’s house.” It’s a common experience, and a common linguistic( 语言学的) problem. In cultures worldwide, people have powerful olfactory memories. This odor-memory link is also called “the Proust phenomenon,” after Marcel Proust’s famous description of the feelings aroused by a cake dipped in tea in “Remembrance of Things Past.” Olfactory memories seem to be more closely bound up with emotions than are visual or auditory ones. Not all these memories are pleasant, of course, and smells can also trigger feelings of pain. It is surprisingly hard for English-speakers to describe the odors that occasion such strong emotions, however. English possesses almost no abstract smell words that pick out links or themes among unrelated aromas(芳香). We have plenty of these in the visual field. “Yellow,” for example, identifies a characteristic that bananas, lemons, some cars, some flowers, old book pages, and the sun all share. But for odors, we don’t have many more than the vague “musty” (smells old and stale) and “musky” (smells perfumey). We usually have no choice but to say that one thing smells like another – like a banana, like garlic, like diesel fuel. A few languages, though, do have a rich odor vocabulary. Linguist Asifa Majid has found that the Jahai, the Semaq Beri, and the Maniq, hunter-gatherer groups in Malaysia and Thailand, employ a wide range of abstract smell words and can identify aromas as easily as we can colors. The Jahai have a word, for example, that describes “the seemingly dissimilar smell of petrol, smoke, bat poop, root of wild ginger and wood of wild mango.” Last year my cat got sprayed by a skunk(臭鼬), and the vet told me to wash its face with coffee to cover the bad smell. Until then, I had never realized that coffee, which I find delicious, smells remarkably like skunk spray, which I do not. Science has identified the chemicals that both share. They are called mercaptans (硫醇). But in oral English, we have no word for the underlying note that connects these two odors. If the Jahai drank coffee and encountered skunks, I bet they would. 43. The opening paragraph is mainly intended to . A. express the writer’s affection for his grandmother B. direct the readers’ attention to a linguistic problem C. tell us the odor of the grandmother’s house stayed the same D. prove smell has a greater power than visual memories 44. Which of the following is related to olfactory memories A. Forming an image in mind after seeing the word “injury”. B. Feeling sympathetic when seeing a sick cat. C. Dancing to the music upon hearing it played. D. Missing fried eggs with garlic cooked by mum. 45. The example of the Jahai suggests that . A. the Jahai don’t have many words in the visual field B. English possesses many vague words like “musty” and “musky” C. the Jahai has more abstract smell words than English D. skunk and coffee have the same smell, but different functions 46. What can we learn from the passage A. The author feels pity about the limitation of his language. B. English has a wide range of visual and odor vocabulary. C. Olfactory memories can bring nothing but pleasant feelings. D. Cultures worldwide always collide with each other. B The Jewish(犹太人）family-had-just finished supper and the woman had placed the dishes in the sink. The kitchen was quite damp and even gloomier than in the main room. It was their third apartment since the start of the war, they had abandoned the other two in a hurry. The woman came back into the room and sat down again at the table. The 3-year-old boy sat with his back straight, his eyes fixed on his father, but it was obvious that he was so sleepy that he could barely sit up. The man was smoking a cigarette. His eyes were blood-shot and he kept blinking in a funny way. This blinking had begun soon after they fled the second apartment. It was late, past ten o'clock and they could have gone to sleep, but first they had to play the game that they had been playing every day for two weeks. Even though the man tried his best and he moved very quickly, the fault was his and not the child's. The boy was. marvelous. Seeing his father put out his cigarette, he opened his blue eyes even wider. The woman, who didn't actually take part in the game, stroked the boy's hair. “We'll play the key game just one more time only today. Isn't that right " she asked her husband. He didn't answer because he was not sure. They were still two or three minutes off. He arose and walked towards the bathroom door. Then the woman called out softly, “Ding-dong. "At the sound of the bell ringing so musically from his mother's lips, the boy jumped up from his chair and ran to the front door, which was separated from the main room by a narrow corridor. “Who's there " he asked. The woman, remaining in her chair, shut her eyes tight as if feeling a sudden, sharp pain. “I'l1 open up in a minute, I'm just looking for the keys, "the child called out. Then he ran back to the main room, making a lot of noise with his feet. He ran in circles around the table, pulled out one of the sideboard drawers, and slammed it shut. “Just a minute, I can't find them, I don't know where Mama put them, "he yelled, then dragged the chair across the room, climbed onto it, and reached up to the top of the shelf. “I found them!”he shouted triumphantly. Then he got down from the chair, pushed it back to the table, and calmly walked to the door and opened it. “Shut the door, darling, "the woman said softly. "You were perfect.” The child didn't hear what she said. He stood in the middle of the room, staring at the closed bathroom door. “Shut the door, the woman repeated in a tired flat voice. Every evening she repeated the same words, and every evening he stared at the closed bathroom door. At last it opened. The man was pale and his clothes were streaked with lime and dust. He stood there, eyes blinking in that funny way. “Well How did it go " asked the woman. “I still need more time. He has to look for them longer. I slip in sideways all right, but then. . . It's so tight in there that when I turn. . . And he's got to make more noise-he should stamp his feet louder. " The child didn't take his eyes off him. “Say something to him, "the woman whispered. ＂You did a good job, little one, "he said mechanically. “That's right, ”the woman said, “you're really doing a wonderful job, darling. You act just like a grown-up. And you do know that if someone should really ring the doorbell when Mama is at work, everything will depend on you And what will you say when they ask you about your parents ” “Mama's at work. ” “And Papa "He was silent. “And Papa "the man screamed in terror. The child turned pale. “And Papa ”the man repeated more calmly. “He's dead, ”＂the child answered and threw himself at his father, who was standing right beside him, but already long dead to the people who would really ring the bell. 47.

What is the best title of the passage A. A Scary Night B. The Key Game C. My Father Is Dead D. An Innocent Boy C Light and bright, cheap and cheerful: IKEA’s 400-plus outlets (专营店) in 49 countries all run on the same central principle. Customers do as much of the work as possible, in the belief they are having fun and saving money. You drive to a distant warehouse built on cheap out-of-town land. Inside, you enter a maze (迷宫) — no shortcuts allowed — where every twist reveals new pared with the prices of other outlets, IKEA’s are much lower. You load up your trolley (手推车) with impulse buys-a clock, storage boxes, tools and more chairs than you will ever use. You drag cardboard boxes, cupboards and tables into your car and reward yourself for your economy and good taste. Then you drive home and put your prizes together. You are satisfied with the bargains. IKEA is satisfied with your money. The company’s name was a do-it-yourself job, too. IKEA stands for Ingvar Kamprad, from Elmtaryd ― his family’s farm — in Agunnaryd. That village is in the Smaland region of southern Sweden. Mr Kamprad founded IKEA aged 17. Well before that, he spotted a principle which would make him one of the richest men in the world that customers like buying goods at wholesale prices (批发价). First he bought matches in large quantities and sold them by the box. Aged ten, he sold pens in the similar way. Setbacks inspired him. Facing a price war against his low-cost mail-order furniture business, he defeated competitors by opening a showroom. Dealers tried to crush Mr Kamprad and banned him from their trade fairs. He slipped in, hiding in a friend’s car. When they tried to threaten his suppliers, he relied on his own workers, and secretly sold his production to communist Poland. Decades later, east Europeans freed from the planned economy drove hundreds of miles to newly opened outlets in Moscow and Warsaw. His self-discipline was world-famous. As a child, he removed the “off” button from his alarm clock to stop himself oversleeping. He rarely took a first-class seat. The wine didn’t get you there any earlier, he sniffed; having lots of money was no reason to waste it. He bought his clothes in second-hand markets, and for years drove an elderly Volvo until he had to sell it on safety grounds. He had his hair cut in poor countries to save money. Visitors admired the views, but were surprised that his house was so shabby. He worked well into his eighties. His diligence and simple way of life set a good example to his 194,000 “co-workers”. But he was not mean. The point of cutting costs was to make goods affordable, not to compromise quality. He urged his staff to reflect constantly on ways of saving money, time and space. An improved design that allows easier piling means shipping less air and more profit. Culture was more important than strategy. He disliked “exaggerated (夸张的) planning”, along with financial markets and banks. Better to make mistakes and learn from them. And use time wisely: “You can do so much in ten minutes. But ten minutes once gone are gone for good.” This did not apply to customers. The longer they stayed, the better. Mr Kamprad’s impact on modern life can be compared with that of Henry Ford and the mass-produced motor car. Furniture used to be expensive, dark and heavy. For many people, decorating a home could cost many months’ salary. IKEA made furniture not just affordable and functional, but fun. The mission was civilizational, he felt, changing how people lived and thought. His approach drew some fire. The company values struck some as unpleasant. At IKEA’s Corporate Culture Centre, lots of pictures of Mr Kamprad with his mottos can be seen everywhere. What’s worse, some parts of the supply chain seemed to have serious problems to overcome. 51. What can we learn about IKEA in Paragraph 1 A. IKEA prefers rural areas for its location. B. IKEA has 400 outlets throughout the world. C. IKEA likes to store new furniture in a maze. D. IKEA provides a lot of work for its customers. 52. The underlined two sentences in Paragraph 2 imply that ________. A. IKEA tricks you into spending more money B. you may buy bargains with impulse in IKEA C. both you and IKEA are pleased with the deal D. both you and IKEA are happy with the bargain 53. By mentioning Mr. Kamprad’s experiences before he founded IKEA, the author intends to tell us that Mr Kamprad ________. A. was likely to become a successful businessman B. preferred selling matches and pens by low prices C. had been a well-off merchant due to his principle D. enjoyed doing something promising with discipline 54. What can be inferred from paragraph 5 and 6 about Mr. Kamprad A. He never overslept due to his alarm clock being set. B. He was against drinking but for sniffing at the wine. C. He sold the old Volvo with the purpose of saving money. - D. He didn’t give up the quality of furniture for more profit. 55. Which of the following has nothing to do with Mr. Kamprad’s success in business A. The pictures and mottos of Mr. Kamprad. B. The setbacks Mr. Kamprad experienced. C. Mr. Kamprad’s principles of management. D. Mr. Kamprad’s self-discipline and diligence. 第四部分：七选五（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） The factors that cause youth unemployment often differ among regions and labor systems. 56 Since firing full-time workers is so complicated and expensive, employers are unwilling to take on new staff, while people who are already employed, mainly older workers, often keep their jobs for life. In developing countries with high birthrates and very young populations, like the Philippines, growth isn’t strong enough to absorb the wave of youngsters entering the workforce each year. 57． Young people entering the workforce are often the most vulnerable（易受伤害的）in economic downturns — new employees are often the first to get sacked, while college graduates find few employers willing to hire. 58． In Spain, Italy and Japan, for instance, companies looking to gain flexibility in regulated labor markets often offer new, young staffers only short-term contracts. These contracts, which sometimes last for only a few days, usually come with low salaries and few benefits. Since such staff is temporary, employers have little intention to invest in training. Facing such obstacles, young people everywhere are finding that traditional route to success — education — isn’t paying off as much as in the past. 59． They will often be offered low-skilled jobs from waiters to supermarket clerks. A March report form the UK’s Office for National Statistics showed that the share of recent college graduates in Britain working in lower-skilled jobs rose to nearly 35% in 2011 form less than 27% a decade earlier. 60． Typical is Cairo’s Ahmed Said. He graduated from college with a business degree, and after performing the obligatory（义务的）year of military service, he applied for jobs in accounting and data entry. But Said, 24, had no luck, and today he works as a waiter at a cafe near Tahrir Square. “This was my last choice,” he says, “and this is the job that I got.” A. Young graduates often find themselves competing with more-experienced workers. B. More and more college graduates are forced to take jobs below their skill level. C. They started applying for any positions they could find in other countries. D. In some parts of the world, such jobs are all that is available to college graduates. E. Yet youth unemployment also has common roots throughout the world. F. Those young workers who do find employment are often trapped in awful contracts. G. In much of Western Europe overemphasized labor protection makes it more difficult for youths to land good jobs. 43．B 44．D 45．C 46．A 47．D 48．A 49．C 50．B 51．A 52．C 53．A 54．D 55．A 56．G 57．E 58．F 59．B 60．D
