阅读理解。     In this fast-shifting world, there can be no guarantees attached to any particular job. But there is much
that you can do to protect yourself from the change of society, by equipping yourself with the skills to
manage your career more effectively. You need to be a career activist.
     If you lost your main source of income tomorrow, could you find a different source to replace it? The
most im-portant thing in protecting yourself now and in the future is ensuring that you have choices. Don"t
let yourself be held back by a lack of skill development, or fear of change. Some people have been good
performers in their own or-ganization but discovered that they are stuck. Because they are so closely related
to a particular company or indus-try, their skills are not readily transferred to other jobs.
     Don"t put all your eggs in one basket. If you limit yourself to one particular area or sector, you limit your
opportuni-ty, too. In a global market place, many jobs come and go quickly as changes in the stock market.
Today"s hottest job may not exist tomorrow. If you love computers, then this work represents a great
choice. But don"t enter a field just because you think that"s where the hot jobs are; even if the job is available,
it may not match well with your own skills and abili-ties. Start with entry of your own strengths and interests,
then see where you may match up best in the job market. 1. How can we ensure that we have choices if we lose the main source of income? A. Be a good performer in our own organization.
B. Try to develop our skills and be a career activist.
C. Enter a field where the hot jobs are.
D. Transfer to other jobs that use computers. 2. Some people are afraid of change because _______. A. they have got a hot job
B. they have no other better choices
C. they have got used to a certain job
D. they have no other skills and interests 3. "Put your eggs in one basket" in Paragraph 3 means ______.A. sticking to only one particular job
B. trying your best to do something well
C. many jobs come and go quickly
D. entering a field where the hot jobs are 4. What is the best job for you to choose according to the writer? A. Something that is both hot and interesting.
B. Something that brings you good source of income.
C. Something that will always exist in the future.
D. Something involving your strengths and interests.

阅读理解。     Two students started quarreling at school. One student shouted dirty words at the other, and
a fight (打架) began.
     What can be done to stop fights like this at school? In some schools, the disputants (争执者)
sit down with peer mediators.
     Peer mediators are students with special training (训练) in this kind of problems. Peer mediators
help the disputants to talk in a friendly way. Here are some of the ways they use:
1. Put what you think clearly but don"t say any-thing to hurt the other. Begin with"I feel…" instead
of"You always…"
2. Listen carefully to what the other person is saying. Don"t stop the other person"s words.
3. Keep looking at the other person"s eyes when he or she talks.
4. Try to see the other person"s side of the prob-lem.

     Today it seems perfectly natural for us to shake hands when we greet someone or say goodbye. But like
so many things that we do without thinking such actions at one time probably represented something.
     For example, in primitive (原始的) life the hand was used to fight enemies, kill animals, and make spears
and tools. So when the hand was extended to someone, it showed that the person was not armed or ready for
fight.
     We know that the hand was an important symbol in early religion, probably as a mark of power. The
Greeks prayed to their gods with raised hands. Presenting the hands palm to palm was at one time the way
an inferior (身份低的) person paid respect to a superior(身份高的) one.
     Among the Arabs, it was customary at one time to kiss the hand of a superior. Later on, polite Arabs
began to resist the efforts of people to kiss their hands, and sometimes they would end up shaking hands as
each tried to prevent the other from showing this mark of"inferiority (下级)."
     The early Greeks held out the right hand when they wished to show friendship to a stranger. So we can
see that the hand, and what was done with it, was full of meaning to people down through the ages. And
while we shake hands without thinking, we are really carrying on a custom that has been handed down to us
from ancient times.

1. The second paragraph tells us ________.
A. the handshake didn"t mean greeting
B. what hands were used to do in primitive life
C. the handshake showed men"s kindness
D. the handshake showed nothing
2. Human beings first made their living by ________.
A. hunting
B. fishing
C. hand
D. farming
3. Among the Arabs, at one time, ________.
A. people kissed each other whenever they met
B. men kissed the women whenever they met
C. less important person kissed more important person"s hand
D. more important person kissed less important person"s hand
4. Generally speaking, in different countries ________.
A. people shake hands in the same way
B. handshake has different meanings
C. strangers never have handshake
D. people only use handshake to show friendship
5. The phrase " hand down" in the last sentence means ________.
A. put down
B. leave down
C. give down
D. pass down

     "If you want to see a thing well, reach out and touch it!"
     That may seem a strange thing to say. But touching things can help you to see them better.
     Your eyes can tell you that a glass ball is round. But by holding it in your hands, you can feel how
smooth and cool the ball is. You can feel how heavy the glass is. When you feel all these about the ball,
you really see it. With your skin, you can feel better. For example, your fingers can tell the difference
between two coins in your pocket. You can feel a little drop of water on the back of your hand, too.
You can even feel sounds against your skin. Have you ever wanted to know why some people like very
loud music? They must like to feel the sounds of music.
     All children soon learn what "Don"t touch!" means. They hear it often. Yet most of us keep on
touching things as we grow up. In shops, we touch things we might buy: food, clothes. To see something
well, we have to touch it. The bottoms of our feet can feel things, too. You know this when you walk on
warm sand, cool grass or a hard floor. All feel different under your feet.
     There are ways of learning to see well by feeling. One way is to close your eyes and try to feel
everything that is touching your skin. Feel the shoes on your feet, the clothes on your body, the air on your
skin. At first, it is not easy to feel these things. You are too used to them!
      Most museums are just for looking. But today some museums have some things to touch. Their signs

say, "Do touch!" There you can feel everything on show. If you want to see better, reach out and touch.
Then you will really see!

1. By touching things _____.
A. you will have a strange feeling
B. you will learn how to reach out your hand
C. you can learn more about them
D. you can tell what colors they really are
2. Which of the following can be the best title of the story?
A. Touching by Feeling
B. To See or to Feel
C. To See Better-Feel
D. Ways of Feeling
3. Which of the following parts can tell you the difference between two coins in your pocket?.
A. Your fingers.
B. Your eyes.
C. Your skin.
D. Your back.
4. What can"t your skin feel?.
A. Sounds.
B. Darkness.
C. Water.
D. Coins
5. Which of the following is NOT true?
A. Touching is helping us to see better.
B. Our skins may help us enjoy music.
C. People don"t have to learn to feel.
D. Visitors can"t feel the things on show in any museums

     A Mumbai based but British made movie, Slumdog Millionaire took the most Oscars in Hollywood
last week. Starring a cast (演员阵容) of unknown actors, the movie won eight awards including best
picture and best director. The movie follows the life of an 18-year-old boy who"s grown up in the slums
(贫民窟) of Mumbai, India.
     The boy ends up winning money and love when he makes it onto a popular TV game show.
     In spite of the film"s Success at the Academy Awards, Indians have mixed feelings about Slumdog.
The argument about how the movie portrays (描述) India began when it hit cinemas.
     The film is set in the poor and cruel society of one of Mumbai"s slums. In one scene, the hero jumps
into a smelly open-air toilet to run after a pop star. That world, though real to hundreds of millions of
Indians, is very different to how modem India sees itself. Many Indian audiences feel uncomfortable with
the film"s portraying of India as a slum land.
     Several well-respected local Indian filmmakers have said the story has been tailored for western
audiences. Veteran Bollywood star, Amitabh Bachchan, said the film portrayed India as a" Third World,
dirty developing nation."
     Even some of those who like the movie are unhappy with its title. People who live in slums have taken
to the streets with signs that read: "Don"t call us dogs" and "I am not a slum dog."
     "It"s understandable why people are unhappy with the title." Indian author Chitra Divakaruni told the
New York Times. "In Indian culture being called a dog is extremely rude.It is often used in films to
describe evil people."
     However, others have been more positive. The Wall Street Journal in New York described Slumdog
as "the world"s first globalized masterpiece (杰作)
1. Many Indians are unhappy with the movie because _____.
A. it is not made by Indians
B. it portrays a wrong picture of India
C. it too far from their life
D. it describes a dirty and poor India
2. From Paragraph 5,we can learn some Indian filmmakers may think the move ._____
A. has been cut by westerners
B. has described western life
C. has been made to win the western awards
D. has been made to meet the taste of westerners
3. The main message of the passage is that _____.
A. Indians have mixed feelings at the movie
B. The movie won eight Oscars awards
C. India is a Third World developing country
D. Westerners like movies portraying slums
4. _____ thinks highly of the movie.
A. Some well-respected local Indian filmmakers
B. The Wall Street Journal in New York
C. The people who live in slums in Mumbai
D. Indian author Chitra Divakaruni
