阅读理解。     I"m going to show you how to be a public speaker that everyone wants to hear. Surprisingly most people
are extremely scared of public speaking. I think it really boils down to the fact that most people don"t get it
taught in school or by their parents. I"m going to show you how you can look like a great speaker if you apply
these techniques.
     If you really want to be liked by people as a speaker, telling stories is probably the best asset(资源) you can
have. It is a very effective tool of communication that dates back to the cavemen paintings on walls. Human
beings relate to stories they hear. You can use these stories to get a specific feeling out of your audience. You
can tell a story where you emphasize how"heroic" you are and people will feel that way. You can also use a
story to really get people involved in the speech because it is interesting. Throwing facts at people, no matter
how accurate, isn"t going to make people like you as a speaker.
     You should definitely have a call to action and a purpose to your speech. You don"t want to end up being a
speaker who just talks about stuff for the sake of talking. There needs to be an underlining purpose for
everything said and a call to action on this purpose. If you"re talking about hurricane relief, you have to have a
purpose of what you"re trying to get across and let people out there know how they can start helping. This is
how to be a public speaker that everyone likes.
      Having some visual effects can really make you succeed as a great public speaker. If you"re talking about
poverty in a third world country, a picture is going to have a much bigger impact than any word. 1. The author"s purpose in writing the passage is to tell us ______. A. that people are scared of public speaking
B. that people are usually too embarrassed to speak
C. how to be a public speaker that everyone likes
D. how to get rid of our shyness in schools 2. Why are most people extremely scared of public speaking according to the author?A. Because they are very nervous when speaking.
B. Because the audience are usually hard to satisfy.
C. Because the audience are always laughing at people.
D. Because they don"t get it taught how to be a good speaker. 3. You can tell a story in a speech to _______. A. highlight your purpose
B. make your facts accurate
C. get people involved in the story
D. get a specific feeling out of your audience4. A good speech usually contains all of the following EXCEPT _______. A. a clear purpose

阅读下面的短文,请根据短文后的要求答题。 (注意字数要求)       A punctual person is in the habit of doing a thing at the proper time and is never late in keeping an
appointment.
     The unpunctual man, on one hand, never does what he has to do at the proper time. He is always in a hurry
and in the end loses both time and his good name. A lost thing may be found again, but lost time can never be
regained. Time is more valuable than material things. In fact, time is life itself. The unpunctual man is for ever
wasting and mismanaging his most valuable asset as well as other"s. The unpunctual person is always
complaining that he finds no time to answer letters, or return calls or keep appointments promptly. But the
man who really has a great deal to do is very careful of his time and seldom complains of want of it. He knows
that he can not get through his huge amount of work unless he faithfully keeps every piece of work when it has
to be attended to.
     Failure to be punctual in keeping one"s appointments is the sign of disrespect towards others. If a person is
invited to dinner and arrives later than the appointed time, he keeps all the other guests waiting for him; Usually
this will be regarded as a great disrespect to the host and all other guests present.
     Unpunctuality, moreover, is very harmful when it comes to do one"s duty, whether public or" private,
Imagine how it would be if those who are put in charge of important tasks failed to be at their proper place at
the appointed time. A man who is known to be habitually unpunctual is never trusted by his friends or fellow
men. 1. What does the author think is the main difference between a punctual person and an unpunctual
    person? (No more than 20 words)

请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。
注意:每空格1个单词。      Most people feel lonely sometimes, but it usually only lasts between a few minutes and a few hours. This
kind of loneliness is not serious. In fact, it is quite normal. For some people, though, loneliness can last for
years, Now researchers say there are three different types of loneliness.
     The first kind of loneliness is temporary. This is the most common type. It usually disappears quickly and
does not require any special attention, The second kind, situation-for example, family problem, the death of a
loved one, or moving to a new place. Although this kind of loneliness can cause physical problems. such as
headaches and sleeplessness, it usually does not last for more than a year.
     The third kind of loneliness is the most severe. Unlike the second type, chronic (the opposite of
"temporary") usually lasts more than two years and has no specific cause. People who experience habitual
loneliness have problems socializing and becoming close to others. Unfortunately, many chronically lonely
people think there is little or nothing they can do to improve their condition.
      Psychologists agree that one important factor in loneliness is a person"s social contacts, for example,
friends, family members. co-workers, etc. we depend on various people for different reasons; For instance, our
families give us emotional support, our parents and teachers give us guidance, and our friends share similar
interests and activities. However, psychologists have found that, though lonely people may have many social
contacts, they sometimes feel they should have more, They question their popularity.
     Psychologists are trying to find ways to help habitually lonely people for two reasons: they are unhappy and
unable to socialize and there is a connection between chronic loneliness and serious illness as heart disease,
while temporary and situational loneliness can be a sad, and sometimes dangerous condition.

阅读下面的短文,并根据短文后的要求答题。(请注意问题后的字数要求)      Students often say to me,"I don"t know any history. I think it would be a good thing to learn some."What
they seem to mean is that they have never had a"course" about history or read. any history books. But they are
greatly mistaken if they think " they don" t know any history". Every man, woman, and child knows some
history, enough at least to live in the world.
     Suppose you had awakened this morning totally unable to remember anything-all your other senses working
properly, but ____. You would be in a bad way indeed! You wouldn"t know who you were, or where you were, what you had done yesterday, or what you intended of other people expected you to do today. What could you
do in that case? Wander about helplessly, seeing and hearing things, taking them in as altogether new, not at all
knowing what they might mean in relation either to the past or to the future. You would have to discover your
little world all over again, much as you discovered it in childhood. You would have to" adapt (适应)" yourself
and make a new start. In short, you would be a lost soul because you had stopped to have any knowledge of
history, the history of your personal doings and associations(联系 ) in the past. The fact is that history is no
more than things said and done in the past.
1. What" s the best title of this passage?
________________________________________________________________________________________
2. Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one? You would have to make yourself
    suitable to your little world and have a new start.
________________________________________________________________________________________
3. Please fill in the blank in the second paragraph with proper words or phrases to complete the
   sentence. ( within 5 words)

     Americans from childhood think a great deal about time and they learn to value time very much. As
children, they are taught.that time is everything.
     Time is money. A working American has to work hard for 8 hours a day or 40 hours a week. This is the
working time. In his spare time, he also works hard for more money. Even Saturday and Sunday are filled with
activities. In the street you can hardly see a man who walks slowly. They walk very fast. In fact, they are
running.
     Time is knowledge. No matter whether they go to work or go back home, they will take advantage of every minute to read on the buses, trains and ships.
     Time is friendship. When an American is invited to dinner, he won"t be late or get there too early. Otherwise, his arrival will make the others unhappy.
     Seeing from above, we should learn from Americans to value every minute very much.
