“What does it say, honey?” my dad asked, his voice full of 38 for me. “I didn’t get in, but I’m on the waiting list.” “Well, at least it isn’t 39 ,” he said brightly.

“Yeah, but 40 , I don’t want to be on the waiting list; I want to be 41 . No one gets in off the waiting list. It’s a way of saying ‘Thanks for 42 ’.”

“Then let’s go out there and tell them so.”

“That doesn’t sound 43 , dad.” I said sadly, “It doesn’t work.” Upset and annoyed, I 44 myself in my room. However,my father’s advice kept 45 in my head. I thought about it for a few days, finally coming to the 46 that he was right. And the next day I seated myself across from Mr. Luis Soto, my admissions officer.

“What can I do for you, Nacie?” he asked pleasantly.

“Well, sir, I am here to tell you that I love this school and would love a 47 to be here. I just wanted to tell you how much going here would 48 to me—it is my only dream college— and that I would use my time here to the best 49. I wanted to let you know that if you gave me a chance and reconsidered my application, you wouldn’t 50 it.” The words had poured out 51 I could stop them or check their desperate tone.

Mr. Soto looked me over for a minute before he smiled broadly. “OK, that is the kind of thing we love to hear. Well done, you’re in.”

It was so 52 and I asked, “I’m sorry?” “We want people in the class who want to be here, who will 53 the best of this education. I’m glad you came to talk 54 to me. I’m happy to offer you a position in the Class of 2012.”

第三部分 阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)

第一节:阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。 A

He’s an old cobbler(修鞋匠) with a shop in the Marais, a historic area in Paris.When I took him my shoes, he at first told me: “I haven’t time.Take them to the other fellow on the main street; he'll fix them for you right away.”

But I’d had my eye on his shop for a long time. Just looking at his bench loaded with tools and pieces of leather, I knew he was a skilled craftsman. “No,” I replied, “The other fellow can’t do it well.”

“The other fellow” was one of those shopkeepers who fix shoes and make keys “while-U-wait”(立等可取)-- without knowing much about mending shoes or making keys. They work carelessly, and when they have finished sewing back a sandal strap (鞋带) ,you might as well just throw away the pair.

My man saw I wouldn’t give in, and he smiled. He wiped his hands on his blue apron (围裙), looked at my shoes, had me write my name on one shoe with a piece of chalk and said, “Come back in a week.”

I was about to leave when he took a pair of soft leather boot off a shelf.

“See what I can do” he said with pride. “Only three of us in Paris can do this kind of work.”

When I got back out into the street, the world seemed brand-new to me. He was something out of an ancient legend, an old craftsman with his way of speaking familiarly, his pride in his craft. These are times when nothing is important but the bottom line, when you can do things any old way as long as it “pays”, when, in short, people look on work as a path to ever-increasing consumption (消费) rather than a way to realize their own abilities. In such a period, it is a rare comfort to find a cobbler who gets his greatest satisfaction from pride in a job well done. 56.Which of the following is true about the old cobbler?________ A.He was equipped with the best repairing tools.

B.He was the only cobbler in the Marais. C.He was proud of his skills. D.He was a native Parisian.

57. The sentence “He was something out of an ancient legend.” (paragraph7) implies that . A.nowadays you can hardly find anyone like him B.it was difficult to communicate with this man C.the man was very strange D.the man was too old

58. According to the author, many people work just to . A.realize their abilities B.gain happiness C.make money D.gain respect 59. This story wants to tell us that . A.craftsmen make a lot of money B.whatever you do, do it well C.craftsmen need self-respect D.people are born equal

C

You’re out to dinner. The food is delicious and the service is fine. You decide to leave a big fat tip. Why? The answer may not be as simple as you think.

Tipping, psychologists have found, is not just about service. Instead, studies have shown that tipping can be affected by psychological reactions to a series of different factors from the waiter’s choice of words, to how they carry themselves while taking orders, to the bill’s total. Even how much waiters remind customers of themselves can determine how much change they pocket by the end of the night.

“Studies before have shown that mimicry (模仿) brings into positive feelings for the mimicker,”

wrote Rick van Baaren, a social psychology professor. “These studies show that people who are being mimicked become more generous toward the person who mimics them.”

So Rick van Baaren divided 59 waiters into two groups. He requested that half serve with a phrase such as, “Coming up!” Those in the other half were instructed to repeat the orders and preferences back to the customers. Rick van Baaren then compared their take-home. The results were clear — it pays to mimic your customer. The copycat(模仿者) waiters earned almost double the amount of tips to the other group.

Leonard Green and Joel Myerson, psychologists at Washington University in St. Louis, found the generosity of a tipper may be limited by his bill. After research on the 1,000 tips left for waiters, cabdrivers, hair stylists, they found tip percentages in these three areas dropped as customers’ bills went up. In fact, tip percentages appear to plateau (达到稳定水平) when bills topped $100 and a bill for $200 made the worker gain no bigger percentage tip than a bill for $100.

“That’s also a point of tipping,” Green says. “You have to give a little extra to the cab driver for being there to pick you up and something to the waiter for being there to serve you. If they weren’t there, you’d never get any service. So part of the idea of a tip is for just being there.”

63. Apart from service, how many other factors affecting the customers’ tipping are mentioned in the passage? A. 1.

B. 2.

C. 3.

D. 4.

64. These studies show that _________.

A. tipping can be affected by physical reactions to many different waiter’s factors B. people who are being mimicked usually tip less to the person who mimics them C. the mimic waiters can get almost twice as much money as the other group D. mimicry makes the mimicker feel bad

65. According to the passage, which of the following will be likely to show the right change of the tip

percentages? 30 20 10 Tip ($) 30 20 10 Tip ($) 30 20 10 50 100 150 Bill ($) B

Tip ($) 30 20 10 50 100 150 Bill 50 100 150 Bill ($) C ($) D

Tip ($) 150 Bill 50 100 ($) A

66. We know from the passage that the writer seems to __________.

A. object to Mr. Green’s idea about tipping

B. think part of Mr. Green’s explanation is reasonable C. give his generous tip to waiters very often

D. support the opinions of Mr. Green and Rick van Baaren about tipping

D

“In only six days I lost seven pounds of weight.” “Two full inches in the first three days!”

These are the kinds of statements used in magazine,newspaper, radio and television ads, promising new shapes and new looks to those who buy the medicine or the device. The promoters of products say they can shape the legs, slim the face, smooth wrinkles, or in some other way to add to beauty or desirability.

Often such products are nothing more than money-making things for their promoters. The results they produce are questionable, and some are dangerous to health.

To understand how these products can be legally promoted to the public, it is necessary to understand something of the laws covering their regulation. If the product is a drug, FDA(Food and Drug Administration)can require proof under the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act that is safe and effective before it is put on the market. But if the product is a device, FDA has no authority to require premarketing proof of safety or effectiveness. If a product already on the market is a danger to health, FDA can request the producer or distributor to remove it from the market voluntarily, or it can take legal action, including seizure(查封)of the product.

One notable case a few years ago involved an electrical device called the Relaxacisor, which had been sold for reducing the waistline. The Relaxacisor produced electrical shocks to the body through contact pads. FDA took legal action against the distributor to stop the sale of the device on the grounds that it was dangerous to health and life.

Obviously, most of the devices on the market have never been the subject of court proceedings(法律诉讼),and new devices appear continually. Before buying, it is up to the consumer to judge the safety or effectiveness of such items. 67. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?

A. The court is in charge of removing dangerous products. B. New products are more likely to be questionable. C. The production of a device must be approved by FDA. D. The promoters usually just care about profits.

68. FDA can ask for the proof of safety and effectiveness of a product . A. if it is a drug B. if it is a device

C. if its consumers make complaints

D. if its distributors challenge FDA’s authority 69. The Relaxacisor is mentioned as .

A. a product which was designed to produce electricity B. a product whose distributor was involved in a legal case C. a successful advertisement of a beauty product D. an example of a quality beauty product

70. The author intends to . A. make consumers aware of the promoters’ false promises B. show the weakness of the law on product safety C. give advice on how to keep young and beautiful D. introduce the organization of FDA

A major source of teen stress is school exams, and test anxiety is not uncommon. When you recognize your teen is under stress, how can parents help your teen stay calm before an exam? Be involved. Parents need to be involved in their teen’s work. 71 What they look for is your presence to talk, to cry, or simply to sit with them quietly. Communicate openly with your teen. Encourage your teen to express their worries and fears, but don’t let them focus on those fears. Help them get organized. 72 Together, you and your teen can work out a time-table in which he can study for what he knows will be on the test.

Provide a calm setting. Help your teen set up a quiet place to study and protect his privacy. Give them a nutritious diet. It’s important for your teen to eat a healthy, balanced diet during exam times to focus and do his best. 73 If this happens, encourage your teen to eat light meals or sandwiches. A healthy diet, rather than junk food, is best for reducing stress.

74 Persuade your teenager to get some sleep or do something active when he needs a real break from studying. Making time for relaxation, and exercise is important in reducing stress. Help your teen balance his time so that he will feel comfortable taking time out from studying to spend time with friends or rest.

Show a positive attitude. 75 Your panic, anxiety and blame contribute to your teen’s pressure. Make your teen feel accepted and valued for his efforts.

M: Did you have a lot of friends when you were young?

M: Well, we'll certainly stay here again next time we're passing through. W: Good. Do let us know in advance and we'll try to get you the same room. M: That would be lovely. It may be quite soon in fact. W: Oh? How is that?

W: Well. I don't want to sit here and say I was too poor to go to college. But the fact is that we didn't have the money, though my mum probably could have made enough somehow. I probably could have worked harder at school and gotten better grades, so, it is really, I didn't get to go to college. I had a wish to go to school every other week. It wasn't just my path. M: At the time did you feel that you were missing something?

W: My best friend went off to university and I just remember every time I talk to her. It all sounded so fun and so great. Here I was selling ten shoes and getting on the bus every day to work in town. We both thought the other's life was so much more exciting. I was trying hard to make enough to pay for my own flat every two months and that seemed so exciting to her. And she would talk about studying

for finals, and going to parties, and I thought, God, she is so perfect.
