knew it was possible to get others to do what I wanted if I read their real feelings and responded (回应)
suitably to their needs. At the age of eleven, I sold sponge rubber(泡沫橡胶) door-to-door after school and quickly worked out how to tell if someone was likely to buy from me. When I knocked on a door, if someone told me to go away but their hands were open and they showed their palms (the inside surfaces
of their hands) , I knew it was safe to continue with my presentation (展示) because they weren't angry or
threatening although they may have a dismissive( 不屑的) attitude. If someone told me to go away in a soft voice but used a pointed finger or closed hand, I knew it was time to leave.
As a teenager, I became a pots and pans ( 炊具) salesperson, and my ability to read
people earned me enough money to buy my first house. Selling gave me the chance to meet people and study them close and to know whether they would buy or not, simply by watching their body language.
I joined the life insurance business at the age of twenty. And I went on to break several sales records for my company, becoming the youngest person to sell over a million dollars' worth of business in my first year. This achievement allowed me to become a member of the well-known Million Dollar Round Table ( MDRT, which recognizes the world's top achievers in life insurance) . I was lucky that the skills I'd learned as a boy in watching body language while selling pots and pans could be used in this new area, and were directly related to the success I could have in any business closely connected with people.
4 . Which of the following meant the author must go away?
A. A customer's soft voice. B. A customer's pointed finger.
C. A customer's open palms. D . A customer's dismissive expression .
5. What is the “new area” mentioned in the last paragraph?
A. The study of selling products. B. The life insurance business. C. The pots and pans industry. D. The work for the MDRT.
6. What was the key to the author's success?
A. Listening to customers' words. B: Understanding customers' habits.
C. Trying to satisfy customers' needs. D. Reading customers' body language.
7. How does the text mainly develop?
A. By following the order of time. B. By giving clear explanations.
C. By giving well-known examples. D. By following the order of importance.
C
A while back I caught a news report on something called "couch surfing" and the network of trusting souls who make this phenomenon possible. They offer to put up travelers free of charge and help them on their ways.
At first, it sounded unbelievable. I mean , inviting strangers into one 's home for one or two nights? Give me a break.
1819275143510However, I was intrigued. I decided to investigate. The only way to truly learn about this phenomenon was to dive in . So I planned a trip to Finland, a country I've always wanted to explore. I would couch surf at every stop there. If ever any anxiety existed when stepping into the unknown , it disappeared when my first host met me at the train station. Ari looked like my idea of a typical Finn: tall
and blue-eyed. Finns were also supposed to be famously reserved (寡言少语的 ) . Ari was anything but.
He was a live wire, giving me an enthusiastic welcome and hiking with me to his apartment, where he showed me the sleeper sofa, served me tea, and engaged me in warm conversations. He also handed me a key to come and go as I pleased.
If this was what couch surfing was all about trust and friendship, then I had gotten off to a good start. As I boarded my next train to continue my journey, I began to think about this couch-surfing idea. What urged these people to open their homes to strangers? I concluded that there was a desire to lend a hand to like-minded folks who might enrich their own lives.
Seven cities in 14 days. Seven hosts. Seven new friends. If couch surfing taught me anything, it's this : Most people are good and generous.
Where will couch surfing take me next? Who knows? But I can't wait to find out.
8. Which of the following best explains the underlined word “intrigued ” in the second paragraph?
A. Relaxed. B. Disgusted.
C. Interested. D. Embarrassed.
9. What can we know about Ari?
A. He was reserved like most Finns. B. He talked less but he was friendly.
C. He treated the author as a friend. D. He saw off the author at the train station.
10. Why did people offer couch surfing to strangers?
A. To take an adventure with strangers. B. To exchange houses for a short time.
C. To learn more about others' family lives. D. To enrich their own lives by helping others.
11. What can be the suitable title for the text?
A. Travel on Trust and Couches B. A Free Travel in Finland
C. Experiences in Strangers' Houses D. A Plan for Couch Surfing
D
Dogs have complex emotions such as jealousy ( 嫉妒) and pride, according to a scientific research that throws new light on their relations with humans.
Animal psychologists previously believed most animals lacked the "sense of self" , which is needed to experience secondary emotions such as jealousy, embarrassment or guilt. These emotions are more complex than instant reactions such as anger or joy.
Professor Friederike Range, from the University of Vienna, has shown that dogs are jealous when they feel unfairly treated compared with other dogs. "Dogs show a strong reaction to inequity (不公平) , " she said. "If one dog gets something, you'd better believe another will demand something as well."
But, her study points out that it doesn't matter if one gets a better treat and only that the distribution is fair.
The dog study is the latest into several species, including cows , horses , cats and sheep , which have shown that animals are far more self-aware than they were thought. Paul Morris, a psychologist at the University of Portsmouth who studies animal emotions, told The Sunday Times, "We are learning that dogs and horses are far more emotionally complex than we ever realized. They can suffer simple forms of
many feelings we once thought only primates (灵长类) could experience.'
In research among dog owners, Morris found almost all of them reported jealous behavior by their pets. The dog often tried to get their owner away from a new lover in the early days of a relationship.
Behavior experts suggest owners keep their dogs away as much as possible from a new partner or child. This helps to prevent jealous activity of the dog such as interruptions with barking or whining ( 哀 号) .
12. What's the best title for this passage?
A. Animals Have Complex Feelings
B. A New Research
C. How to Prevent Jealous Activity from a Dog
D. Dogs Can Be Jealous
13. What can we learn from the second paragraph?
A. Only advanced animals have complex feelings. B. Most animals lack the sense of self.
C. Experts used to believe that most animals lack complex emotions. D. The best way to prevent jealousy is to treat all the animals fairly.
14. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?
A. The owner of the dog can do what he likes without considering the feeling of dogs. B. We have already realized that animals are self-aware.
C. Dogs will get jealous if they find they are treated unfairly.
D. The best way to prevent dogs' jealous activity is to give whatever they like to eat.
15. What does the underlined word "complex" in the second paragraph mean?
A. Complicated. B. Difficult. C. Easy. D. Positive.
第二节 七选五（共 5 小题；每小题 3 分，满分 15 分）
Learning to understand spoken English can be difficult. Learners must not only master new sounds, but also learn conversational idioms. There's a lot to learn! But they may soon realize there is something else going on. 16 These different styles of speaking are called "registers". In their work, language experts identify three major factors that affect the register of spoken English: the place of the conversation, the relationship of the speakers, and the purpose of the conversation.
17 Even two best friends who work and live together may speak more formally to each other in the office. At home, one might say, "Come on, I wanna leave. " The same person at work might say , “ Are you ready to go now?”
The relationship of the speakers also affects the language they use with each other. People speak less formally to friends and more formally to strangers. 18 People who know each other well might use more idioms and more slang in their speech. An angry woman might tell her daughter to "hush your mouth
“and her sister to “quiet down”.
2312670364490Finally , the purpose of the conversation affects people's speech. A person who wants to ease hurt feelings uses a soft, quiet tone. 19
Few speakers realize that they change registers according to these factors. 20 We are not aware that we make these changes. We accept the changeability of the weather, but we often refuse to accept the changeability of speech.
A. In fact, most people strongly deny it.
B. People generally speak less at work than they do at home.
C. The very same person speaks differently in different situations .
D. Therefore, we should be careful not to hurt each other with our speech.
E. On the other hand, a person who wants to pick a fight speaks rapidly and loudly.
F. The place where the conversation takes place directly affects the language of the conversation.
G. Because they already share information and experience with friends, they do not need to explain as much.

The giant panda is a rare animal in China, and also one of the rare animals in the world. It is loved by both the Chinese and the people of the world.

To protect pandas, China has set up some nature reserves, but more money is needed to carry out this important rescue project.
We ho pe that people will lend a helping hand to save the giant pandas, so that this kind of lovely rare animals will live with mankind forever.
