When I was young, my father used to grow carnations — a kind of flower that was red, pink or white. He took care of them with much love and devotion. Every day he came home from work, he would enjoy watching them. And he used to tell us, “No one should touch my flowers.”
One day, my younger sister Clemence, who loved dad very much, wanted to help him. So she cut the carnation from their stems（枝干）one by one and arranged them on the ground. She believed that dad would be very pleased to see them that way.
When mom and I realized what my sister had done, we became completely speechless. However, my sister had no idea why no one showed her any appreciation. When dad arrived, he went as usual straight to watch the flowers. Seeing his flowers lying on the ground like dead animals, he was shocked at first. He look towards the street to see if it was any of the neighbors’ children who could have done it. Then he looked at mom in silence. Finally mom, who always taught us to tell the truth no matter what, said, “No bad neighbors did this great job, only your lovely daughter Clemence.”

An alpha city is a city which plays a major role in the international society. Several qualities are employed to describe an alpha city.
The first name familiarity around the world. When given the name of an alpha city, most people know which country that city is in, and they may also know several major world-famous buildings in the city. Alpha cities tend to have huge political influence, not only in their own nations, but in the world in general. And in economy, alpha cities are as important. International companies often have offices in many alpha cities so that they can be in touch with current events around the world. Alpha cities are also rich arts and culture, with museums, theaters and so on. Meanwhile, to be an alpha city, it must have a well-serviced international airport, along with stations for trains, shipping, trucking, and so on.

Tourists from all over the world can also be found, at any given time, sharing the streets of an alpha city with business travelers, citizens, and those who stay in the city for work, artistic performances, and other activities for a short time.
45. By “name familiarity” (Paragraph 2), we know the name of an alpha city is ______ all over the world.
A. well-known B. friendly C. common D. basic
46. Many international companies have office in alpha cities in order to ______.

C
Have you ever met the situation there you kept thinking that there are opportunities, or chances, which are better than your current one? This is the syndrome（综合症）when you are looking at the other side of the grass and think that the grass is greener on the other side and is also what I call the “greener grass” syndrome.
Why are you like this? Uncertainty and curiosity play a big part in creating the “greener grass” syndrome. If you have this syndrome, you are likely to miss a lot if things you have now. When you are always focusing on other opportunities, sometimes you may waste the opportunity right in front of you.
So what can you do to treat the “greener grass” syndrome? The first thing to do is recognize that your current job is your best choice right now. Try to focus on “what is” instead of “what if”. Secondly, always stick to your job, no matter which side you are at. Last but not least, always do your best in your current job. In conclusion, it is important for you to chose a side, and make the best out of it.
49. From the first two paragraphs, we learn that ______ may be the main cause of the “green grass” syndrome.
A. uncertainty B. opportunities
C. one’s current job D. the current situation
50. How many suggestions does the writer give to deal with the “green grass” syndrome?
A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.
英语试卷 第5页（共7页）
51. What is the purpose of this passage?
A. To introduce a common medical syndrome.
B. To discuss ways to focus on different opportunities.
C. To persuade people to make the best of what they have.
D. To show people different ways to make the grass greener.
52. How is the passage organized?
A. Opinion — Description — Discussion
B. Comparison — Argument — Explanation
C. Introduction — Explanation — Discussion
D. Explanation — Supporting examples — Main idea
第二节：阅读下面的材料，从所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出符合53 ~ 56小题要求的最佳选项。
Philip, Carla, Eliza and David are each doing a study. They are asking four business persons questions. Read the questions and find the proper answers.
53. Philip: Does profit always go first in shopping business?
54. Carla: Will people do all their shopping over the Internet?
55. Eliza: Will supermarkets take the place of small local shops?
56. David: Has Internet been the key to the online business growth?
A
Not really. A lot of things you want to see and touch before you buy them, like fresh food or clothes. More things like electrical goods, CDs and books are more likely to be ordered by clicking on the mouse and sent to customers’ doors, because they’ll be cheaper — but some people are worried about safety about giving a bank card number on the Net — I mean, I think that might stop some people.
B
Probably not. I think it’ll certainly be more and more difficult for small shops to survive because of the prices, really. And you can get everything in one place in a supermarket, of course. But people always need local shops, I mean, if you just want some milk or something for the house, you don’t want to drive a long way, park your car and fight the crowd. So they may not disappear completely.
C
Well, profit is really important, but I think service is the first. Many of my customers are from the university. I offer them the kink of personal service they can’t get in a larger shop. I work long hours to keep the shop going, and both of my two children help me after school. I see the personal contact with my customers as the most important part of my job. We’re never too busy to stop and chat about friends, exams, or whatever they want to talk about.
D
I don’t think so. I never go shopping myself — well, not very often. All those crowds of people and you can never find exactly what you want. That’s what gave me the idea for the Internet shop to sell clothes, or small gifts. I was so surprised when the business grew so quickly. But I don’t really think Internet is the key to my business — I suppose there are lots of people out there who hate shopping too!

Have you ever met the situation there you kept thinking that there are opportunities, or chances, which are better than your current one? This is the syndrome（综合症）when you are looking at the other side of the grass and think that the grass is greener on the other side and is also what I call the “greener grass” syndrome.
Why are you like this? Uncertainty and curiosity play a big part in creating the “greener grass” syndrome. If you have this syndrome, you are likely to miss a lot if things you have now.

So what can you do to treat the “greener grass” syndrome? The first thing to do is recognize that your current job is your best choice right now. Try to focus on “what is” instead of “what if”. Secondly, always stick to your job, no matter which side you are at. Last but not least, always do your best in your current job. In conclusion, it is important for you to chose a side, and make the best out of it.
49. From the first two paragraphs, we learn that ______ may be the main cause of the “green grass” syndrome.
A. uncertainty B. opportunities

53. Philip: Does profit always go first in shopping business?
54. Carla: Will people do all their shopping over the Internet?
55. Eliza: Will supermarkets take the place of small local shops?
56. David: Has Internet been the key to the online business growth?
A
Not really. A lot of things you want to see and touch before you buy them, like fresh food or clothes. More things like electrical goods, CDs and books are more likely to be ordered by clicking on the mouse and sent to customers’ doors, because they’ll be cheaper — but some people are worried about safety about giving a bank card number on the Net — I mean, I think that might stop some people.
B
Probably not. I think it’ll certainly be more and more difficult for small shops to survive because of the prices, really. And you can get everything in one place in a supermarket, of course. But people always need local shops, I mean, if you just want some milk or something for the house, you don’t want to drive a long way, park your car and fight the crowd. So they may not disappear completely.
C
Well, profit is really important, but I think service is the first. Many of my customers are from the university. I offer them the kink of personal service they can’t get in a larger shop. I work long hours to keep the shop going, and both of my two children help me after school. I see the personal contact with my customers as the most important part of my job. We’re never too busy to stop and chat about friends, exams, or whatever they want to talk about.
D
I don’t think so. I never go shopping myself — well, not very often. All those crowds of people and you can never find exactly what you want. That’s what gave me the idea for the Internet shop to sell clothes, or small gifts. I was so surprised when the business grew so quickly. But I don’t really think Internet is the key to my business — I suppose there are lots of people out there who hate shopping too!
