19、have two daughters: Kristen is seven years old and Kelly is four. Last Sundayevening, we invited some people home for dinner. I dressed them nicely for theparty, and told them that their job was to join Mommy in answering the door whenthe bell rang. Mommywould introduce them to the guests, and then

20、they would takethe guests' coats upstairs and put them on the bed in the second bedroom.The guests arrived. I introducedmy two daughters to each of them. The adults werenice and kind and said how lucky we were to have such good kids.Each of the guests made a particular fuss over Kelly, the young

21、er one, admiring her dress, herhair and her smile. They said she was a remarkable girl to be carrying coats upstairs at her age.I thought to myself that we adults usually make a big "to do" over the younger one becauseshe's the one who seems more easily hurt. We do it with the best of

22、intentions.But we seldom think of how it might affect the other child. I was a little worried that Kristenwould feel she was being outshined. I was about to serve dinner when I realized that she had beenmissing for twenty minutes. I ran upstairs and found her in the bedroom, crying.I said, "Wha

23、t are you doing, my dear?"She turned to me with a sad expression and said, "Mommy, why don't people like me the waythey like my sister? Is it because I'm not pretty? Is that why they don't say nice things about me as much?"I tried to explain to her, kissing and hugging her

24、 to make her feel better.Now, whenever I visit a friend's home, I make it a point to speak to the elder child first.56. The underlined expression 'make a big "to do" over' (paragraph 4) means A. show much concern aboutB. have a special effect onC. list jobs to be done forD. do

25、good things for59. We can conclude from the passage that .A. parents should pay more attention to the elder childrenB. the younger children are usually more easily hurtC. people usually like the younger children moreD. adults should treat children equallyBBeing considered a leader in our society is

26、indeed of high praise. Leadership means power, commands respect and, most important, encourages achievement. Unlike vitamin C, leadershipskills can't be easily swallowed down. They must be carefully cultivated.Different from popular belief, most good leaders are made, not born. They learntheir s

27、kills in their everyday lives. But which do they develop? How do they （and how can you） get others to follow?Always give credit. Many leaders note that the most efficient way to get a good performancefrom others is to treat them like heroes. Giving public credit to someone who has earned it is the b

28、est leadership technique in the world. It is also an act of generosity （ 慷慨 ） that's never forgotten.Giving credit is more effective than even the most constructive criticism （批評 ） , which oftenhurts rather than helps. Kenneth Blanchard, the author of The One-Minute Manager, agrees."Catch p

29、eople doing something right!" he says. Then tell everyone about it.Take informed risks. " The best leaders know that taking a risk is not a thoughtless exercise,"says management adviser Marilyn Machlowitz. "Sky divers don't go up in an airplane without checking the parachutes

30、 （ 降落傘 ） beforehand. " Because the idea of risk also carries with it the possibility of failure, many of us usually waitfor others to take charge. But if you want to be a leader, you must learn to fail - and not die athousand deaths. Pick yourself up and start all over again.Encourage enthusias

31、m （熱情）. "When people understand the importance of work, theylendtheir mental strengths," says Lee Ducat. But when they get excited about the work, all their energy gets poured into the job. That's a great force! Is this the best way to create excitement? Be enthusiastic your-self - You

32、 will be followed by everyone.60. The underlined word "cultivated" （paragraph 1） roughly means .A. encouragedB. comparedC. examinedD. developed61. The part Always give credit tells us that a leader should .A. give helpful criticismB. regard others as real heroesC. praise people for their g

33、ood performancesD. praise everyone62.

Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. Leadership Is of Skills

34、 and TechniquesB. Leadership Is Very ImportantC. Not Many Can Be LeadersD. How to Be a LeaderC"Have you ever been out on a boat and felt it lifted up by a wave? Or have youjumped in thewater and felt the rush of energy as waves came over you?" asked Jamie Taylor ofthe Wave Energy Group at

35、the University of Edinburgh. "There is certainly a lotof energy in waves," he said. Scientists are working to use that energy to makeelectricity. Most waves are created whenwinds blow across the ocean. "The wind starts out by making little ripples (漣漪 ) , but if theykeep on blowing, t

36、hose ripples get bigger and bigger and turn into waves," Taylor said. " Wavesare one of nature 's ways of picking up energy and then sending it off on a journey.When waves come toward the shore, people can set up dams to block the water andsend itthrough a large wheel called a turbine

37、(渦輪機(jī) ) . The turbine can then power anelectrical generator to produce electricity ."The resource is huge," said Janet Swain of the Worldwatch Institute. "We willnever run out of wave power. " Besides, wave energy does not create the samepollution as other energy sources, such as

38、oil or coal. Oceans cover three-quartersof the Earth's surface - that would makewave power seem ideal for creating energy throughout the world, though there are some weak points yet to overcome.Swain said that wave power still costs too much money. She also said that itseffects on sea animals ar

39、e still unknown. What is more, wave power could affectfishing and boat traffic.Traditional sources of energy like oil and gas may someday run out. " Demand forenergy topower our TVs and computers, drive our cars, and heat and cool our homes is rising rapidly throughout the world," Swain sa

40、id. In the future when you turn on a light, an ocean wave could be providing the electricity!64. The writer uses the two questions at the beginning of the passage to .A. test the readers' knowledge about wavesB. draw the readers' attention to the topicC. show Jamie Taylor's importanceD.

41、invite the readers to answer them65. The underlined phrase "picking up" (paragraph 2) is closest in meaning toA. starting againB. speeding upC. gatheringD. improving66. We can make better use of wave energy if we .A. shorten its journey to thousands of homesB. build more small power statio

42、ns on the oceansC. reduce the cost of turning it into electric powerD. quicken the steps of producing electricity67. It can be inferred that some day we might not worry about .A. air pollutionB. our boat trafficC. our power supplyD. our supply of sea fishDIn 1837, the historian Carlyle made the firs

43、t recorded use of the word " queue"（ 排隊(duì) ）. Hespoke of the French and their "habit of standing in a queue". Forty years laterParis was the bestplace to wait in line.However, queuing became popular in Britain too. The Second World War was the golden ageof queuing, and people joined

44、 any line in the hope that it was a queue for something to buy. Thiswas the source of many Second World War jokes:Shopkeeper to customer: Excuse me, miss, are you pregnant （懷孕 ）?Customer:Well, I wasn't when I joined the queue. Today, according to research in America, we （in Britain） can spend up

45、 to 5 yearsof our livesqueuing - as compared to twelve months looking for things we have lost. But things may be changing.Many people no longer have the patience to stand in a queue. The law of the jungle（ 叢林 ） has begun to operate at bus stops, with people using their arms to pushothers out of the

46、way.One way to make life easier is to introduce "queue management". Customers at supermarketcheese counters can now take a ticket with a number which appears on a screen when it is theirturn. And while they wait for their number, they can do a bit of shopping.In some booking offices there

47、is also a system telling customers how long theymay have to wait before they are served.One of the latest technical progress is the use of an electronic scanner （電子識別器 ） whichcan read all the contents of your shopping basket or trolley in just a few seconds.If these becomepopular, queuing in superma

48、rkets may become a thing of the past.But some people just like queuing. One man queued all night for Harrods famousJanuary sale, and then returned home for breakfast at nine o' clock the next morning without going into the shop.68.
