片段1
In the morning，as scheduled，the twins got up early，tiptoed to the kitchen and scooped some flour out of the bag.Once they set about making bread，they felt confused.At that time，their father slid into the kitchen，patting the twins' shoulders and comforting them in a soft voice，“Don't quit.You can overcome the challenge.” The twins made the bread smoothly.
第二天早上，按照计划，这对双胞胎起得很早，踮着脚尖来到厨房，从袋子里舀了一些面粉。当她们开始做面包，她们就感到困惑了。这时，她们的父亲溜进厨房，拍着双胞胎的肩膀，轻声安慰她们：“不要放弃。你们可以克服挑战。”双胞胎就顺利地做好了面包。
片段2
We sat down next to each other，but David wouldn't look at me.Tapping him gently on the shoulder，I asked David what had caused him to decide to give up the opportunity.Having hesitated for a moment，he replied in a low voice，“You know，I run very slowly and my running posture is ugly，which will result in others laughing at me.”
我们挨着坐下，但大卫不看我。我轻轻地拍了拍他的肩膀，问大卫是什么原因让他决定放弃这个机会。犹豫了一下，他低声回答：“你知道，我跑得很慢，而且我的跑步姿势很难看，这会让别人嘲笑我。”

I have been proud of my wit (机智幽默).However，recently I've learned a lesson: keeping my thoughts to myself and we'd better follow the policy of “Silence is golden”．
In a college literature course，one of my classmates had a habit of arriving a few minutes late each class.She was a lovely and well-dressed girl from a big city.Some of my classmates even discussed her elegant clothes after class.One day，when the professor was about to start the class，he said in a slightly angry tone，“Where is Miss X？”It seemed that no one could reply，and the silence was coming awkward.To break the embarrassing atmosphere，I offered in an amusing way，“She likes to make a grand entry.”
My words，however，were greeted with more awkward silence，and even the professor stared at me for a second.No one felt what I said was humorous，which made me confused.We all had witnessed this student's constantly late arrivals.Months later，to my astonishment and chagrin (懊恼)，I knew the reason for others' strange response: my classmate was from a famous noble family.I suddenly realized my remarks could have been interpreted as a mean dig (嘲讽) at her private status.I regretted what I had said，but the course was over，and it was impossible for me to make amends (补救).
As I recall this experience and other examples of ill-considered words I have said，I realize that it is better for us to think twice rather than coming up with a witty，fact-based reply because what you say can't be taken back.In this way，we can avoid some unnecessary awkwardness or hurt.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者想要表现幽默却遭遇尴尬的经历。
4．What does the author think he is good at
A．Making clever jokes.
B．Breaking the silence.
C．Having a creative mind.
D．Putting forward good policies.

Teaching Poetry
No poem should ever be discussed or “analysed”， until it has been read aloud by someone，a teacher or a student.Better still，perhaps，read it twice，once at the beginning of the discussion and once at the end，so the sound of the poem is the last thing one hears.
All discussions of poetry are，in fact，preparations for reading it aloud，and the reading of the poem is，finally，the most telling “interpretation”of it—suggesting tone，rhythm，and meaning all at once.Hearing a poet read in his or her own voice，on records or on films，is obviously a special reward.But even those aids to teaching cannot replace the student and teacher reading it or，best of all，reciting it.
I have come to think，in fact，that time spent reading a poem aloud is much more important than “analysing”it，if there isn't time for both.I think one of our goals as teachers of English is to have students love poetry.Poetry is “a criticism of life”， and “a heightening of life”．It is “an approach to the truth of feeling”， and it can “save your life”．It also deserves a place in the teaching of language and literature more central than it presently occupies.
I am not saying that every English teacher must teach poetry.Those who don't like it should not be forced to communicate this to anyone else.But those who do teach poetry must keep in mind a few things about its essential nature，about its sound as well as its sense，and they must make room in the classroom for hearing poetry as well as thinking about it.

D
Businesses are now in cost-cutting mode.Title inflation (通胀) has crept into the workplace.Lay-offs，hiring freezes and concerns about a recession (经济衰退) are plaguing employers.
To balance this unique economic environment，employers have figured out a way to comfort employees and job applicants without spending more money.They are offering impressive titles to soften the blow of not providing a raise to internal employees or big compensation to job candidates.
An employee's title is their identity.It gives them credibility in the office and makes them feel more powerful.In this sense，the policy is a sensible way to help keep staff and attract top candidates.
But if you don't really deserve the new title，it could come back and trouble you.Recruiters will be pleased to find a candidate who is a perfect fit for a significant，well-paying position in terms of skills，background，and previous experience.However，a stumbling block arises when they notice the candidate has a higher title than the client offers.Since a recruiter wants to make a placement and earn a fee，they won't waste time and will seek out other candidates who are a better fit.
Even if the recruiters decide to contact the candidate，there's a good chance the candidate won't accept.Because most people aren't aware that their title was inflated and believe it was a reward for their outstanding performance.Understandably，they would be offended if they received a lower-level post.Now that you are at a certain level，you don't want to go backward.
What's more，if your current title is too high，it raises red flags.For example，when searching for a new job，if your title is “director”， but the new role is under that level，the interviewer will curiously inquire，“why do you want to go down in title？”There will be an assumption from the hiring manager that something isn't right.They may feel that the job seeker is leaving before being fired and willing to downgrade.Rather than trying to figure out the motivations of the candidate，they'll move on to others who have a cleaner story without any baggage.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了职称膨胀对求职招聘过程的不良影响。
12．What can we learn about employees with impressive titles
A．They tend to look down upon others.
B．Their salaries don't match their titles.
C．Their fear of being fired will disappear.
D．They get a good platform for development.
√
B [细节理解题。根据第二段中的“To balance this unique economic environment，employers have figured out a way to comfort employees and job applicants without spending more money.They are offering impressive titles to soften the blow of not providing a raise to internal employees or big compensation to job candidates.”可知，我们会发现拥有令人印象深刻的头衔的员工的薪水并不与之匹配。故选B。]

A．Consult with the client.
B．Contact the job applicant.
C．Rule out the candidate.
D．Gather more related information.
C [细节理解题。根据第四段最后两句“However，a stumbling block arises when they notice the candidate has a higher title than the client offers.Since a recruiter wants to make a placement and earn a fee，they won't waste time and will seek out other candidates who are a better fit.”可知，如果候选人的头衔高于客户提供的职位，招聘人员可能会排除这位候选人。故选C。]
√
14．What is hiring managers' attitude towards those who choose to downgrade
A．Enthusiastic. B．Dismissive.
C．Appreciative. D．Skeptical.
D [推理判断题。根据最后一段第三句到最后一句“There will be an assumption from the hiring manager that something isn't right.They may feel that the job seeker is leaving before being fired and willing to downgrade.Rather than trying to figure out the motivations of the candidate，they'll move on to others who have a cleaner story without any baggage.”可知，招聘经理对那些选择降级的人的态度是怀疑的。故选D。]
√
15．What is the main idea of the passage
A．The impact of title inflation on the recruiting process.
B．Strategies employed by employers to navigate economic challenges.
C．The influence of title inflation on job candidates' self-esteem.
D．Consequences of lay-offs and hiring freezes on workplace dynamics.
√
A [主旨大意题。根据第四段第一句“But if you don't really deserve the new title，it could come back and trouble you.”，第五段第一句“Even if the recruiters decide to contact the candidate，there's a good chance the candidate won't accept.”和最后一段第一句“What's more，if your current title is too high，it raises red flags.”可知，文章主要是讲职称膨胀对求职招聘过程的影响。故选A。]

第二节
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When my daughters reached the third and fourth grades，I occasionally allowed them to walk to and from school alone if the weather permitted.One warm spring day，a little dog followed them home after school.It had short legs and long lovely ears，with a fawn-colored coat.It was the cutest dog I had ever seen and the girls begged me to keep it.The dog was barely twelve weeks old.It had no collar or identifying marks of any sort，so I didn't know what to do.I thought about running an advertisement in the local paper's lost-and-found but I really didn't want to.It would break the kids' hearts if someone should show.To convince myself，I thought its owners should come looking for it if they really loved it.
By the end of the week，the dog was part of our family.It was very intelligent and good with the girls.Despite the excuses I had come up with，I found myself checking the lost-and-found in the local paper.One day the following week，a particular advertisement jumped out at me and my heart pounded (怦怦跳) with fear for what I read.Someone was begging for the return of a lost dog in the neighborhood of our grade school.They sounded desperate.My hand shook.I couldn't bring myself to pick up the phone.
Instead，I pretended I hadn't seen the advertisement.I quickly put the paper away in the drawer and continued with my dusting.I never said a word about it to the kids or my husband.
By now we had named the dog.It looked like a Molly，so that was what we called it.It followed the girls everywhere they went.When they went outside，it was one step behind them.When they did housework，it was there to lend a hand.
There was only one problem with this otherwise perfect picture: my conscience (良心) was bothering me.I knew in my heart I had to call that number and see if our Molly was the dog they were desperately seeking.It was the most difficult thing I'd ever done.
注意：1．续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式作答。

[参考范文]
With mixed feelings，I finally picked up the phone. Secretly I was praying no one would answer，but a woman did. As I described the dog to her in detail，her voice shook with excitement and she wanted to come right over.Within minutes I heard a vehicle pull up at the driveway and some footsteps stop at the door.Head cradled in my hands and heart hammering，a thousand thoughts crossed my mind: I could pretend I wasn't home or tell her，“I'm sorry，you have the wrong address.”But it was too late: the bell rang and Molly was barking.Opening the door，I saw a woman with a little girl sitting in a small wheelchair.
I asked the woman to come in and she quickly bent over and hugged Molly tightly. One look at Molly，and the little girl's face lit up.“Here，Lucy，”she yelled.“Come here！”Molly instantly obeyed，wagging her tail wildly.My heart sank.Seemingly sensing my feelings，the woman explained that Lucy was more than just a puppy to her daughter，who was left crippled for life in an accident.“Lucy gave her a reason to live，”she choked.Suddenly I felt relieved.God has blessed me with so much，I thought. As they pulled out of the driveway，I smiled，knowing I had done the right thing—that puppy was exactly where she belonged.
THANKS
