I read mostly fiction before I was introduced to CaMalcolm Gladwell’s work.

In his TED talk called “Choice, Happiness, and Spaghetti Sauce”, the economist and journalist used the 36 of Pepsi and spaghetti sauce to argue that giving people choices makes them happy. If I had only heard his conclusion statement and 37 the artfully-manipulated statistical evidence that he 38 , I would have been itching （渴望的） to know how he could argue such an interesting point. But he 39 his argument like a detective story, with each puzzle piece 40 to the conclusion.

41 , I borrowed his book Outliers：The Story of Success from the library. Each chapter had its own story and argument, and all of the arguments were, 42 Gladwell, about 43 that led to an individual’s success in the world.

The 44 of his research was amazing. In the first chapter, he 45 the reasons behind the crash of Korean Air Flight 801 in 1997, which 46 more than 220 lives. The disaster took place partly because the co-pilot didn’t 47 mistakes that the pilot was making. In South Korea, it’s 48 to contradict higher-ups even if they are doing something wrong.

Gladwell explained why a（n） 49 number of Canadian hockey players are bom in the first part of the year. The 50 date for youth hockey leagues is December 31, and since hockey players bom in the beginning of the year seem older, larger and more 51 than younger players, they are more to be given more attention in training and become 52 , hockey players as adults, he wrote. Perhaps most interesting of all, Gladwell explained why Asians are so good at 53 . He said Asians get a head start when we learn how to count because our language has fewer syllables and makes numbers easier to remember.

Gladwell is mostly interested in answering my favorite question, “Why？”. And that’s exactly why I love his work. After reading Outliers：The Story of Success and other books like it, I found myself 54 my commonly-accepted beliefs much more often. After all, why should we take anything 55 ？

Thank God I came across Gladwell!

The Ghost Bridegroom

At the time of this story, there was a great family gathering at the castle to meet the promised bridegroom of the Baron’s daughter. An arrangement had been made between the Baron and an old nobleman of Bavaria, Berton, for a marriage between their children. It would increase the importance of both families. The initial plans had been made in the usual way：the young people were engaged without having met each other and the date set for the wedding.

The young Count（伯爵） Von Altenburg had been recalled from the army and was on his way to the castle to meet his promised bride. Messages had been received from Wurtzburg where he was accidentally delayed. The messages indicated the day and time when he might be expected to arrive. The castle was in a fever of preparation to provide him with a suitable welcome.

Anne had dressed with particular care. Bertha and Wilda had selected her clothing and quarreled all morning about what she should wear. The young lady had taken advantage of their arguments to wear exactly what she wanted and had chosen very well. She looked as beautiful as any young bridegroom could wish for, and the excitement made her look even lovelier. The two aunts constantly directed her, as single aunts usually take a great interest in the love affairs of others. They were giving her the final instructions on how to behave, what to say, and how to greet her intended husband.

Hour by hour passed. The sun, which had been so warm over the rich forests of the Odenwald, was now setting along the tops of the mountains. The Baron went to the tallest tower in the castle to see if he could see any sign of the Count and his escorts.

Once, he thought he saw them. The sound of horns came floating up from the valley. A party of men was seen far below, riding slowly along the road. It was a false alarm, for when they reached the foot of the mountain, they suddenly rode off in a different direction. The sun, by now, had set, and the bats began to fly about in the evening light. It was getting dark, and the only movement on the road was the occasional worker returning home.

58. Which is the right relationship of the characters in the novel？

A. Von Altenburg was the Baron’s son.

B. Anne and Bertha were the Baron’s sisters.

C. Anne was Berton’s only daughter.

D. Von Altenburg was Anne’s intended husband.

59. What can best describe the bridegroom？

A. He accepted his intended marriage arranged without his knowledge.

B. He was eager to meet his intended wife so he retired from the army.

C. He wouldn’t have been welcome by the bride had he arrived on time.

D. He didn’t like the marriage so purposely delayed going to the castle.

60. Which of the following descriptions best reflects the disappointed feeling of the Baron family？

A. The sun was so warm over the rich forests of the Odenwald.

B. The Baron went to the tallest tower to see if he could see any sign of the Count.

C. The sound of horns came floating up from the valley.

D. The sun had set, and the bats began to fly about in the evening light.

61. What will the author most probably write about in the next paragraph（s）？

A. What happened to the bride. B. What happened to the bridegroom.

C. What happened to the Baron. D. What happened to the aunts.

C

Many more babies will be bom before the Year of the Horse ends, because many couples in China try to avoid having babies in the Year of the Sheep, which starts on Feb 19, The reason：traditionally it is believed that “sheep babies” lead a difficult and suppressive life.

The. truth is, there is no evidence to prove that people bom with the zodiac sign of sheep are destined for a difficult life. Apple co-founder, the late Steve Jobs, and movie stars Chow Yunfat and Zhang Ziyi were all bom in the Year of the Sheep.

Superstition, as its dictionary description says, is an unreasonable belief that an object, action or circumstance not logically related to a course of events influences its outcome. Many people regard black cats as unlucky when they are unlucky only for mice. The number 13 is considered unlucky in the West, but it was quite an lucky number in ancient China. The “rich” number “ 8 ” is viewed as lucky in China, yet it doesn’t look different from any other number in the West.

But such is the influence of superstition on some people that they undergo cesarean section（剖腹产）, even without going into labor, to give birth before the onset of a year they consider unlucky. Doctors warn that premature cesarean section is a violation of the laws of nature which could affect the baby’s brains and health, but some people ignore their advice. On the social side, the sudden increase in the number of births in one year will make it even more difficult for children to get admission to schools and drastically raise the demand for jobs when they grow up.

Ironically, children bom in a baby boom year can become a liability because they will be locked in a tougher competition for educational, natural and material resources. In more sense than one, their competition begins even before they are bom, because their mothers have to wait longer for their regular medical check-ups and to secure a bed in a hospital for childbirth.

In China where more often than not parents guide （or even force） their children to choose the subjects to study and the vocations to compete for, zodiac signs are of least or no importance. The real important thing is to encourage children to let their imagination fly and develop their unique skills.

62. Which of the following sentences serves as a supporting fact to the writer’s main point of

view？

A. Many more babies will be bom before the Year of the Horse ends.

B. Traditionally it is believed “ Sheep babies ” lead a difficult and suppressive life.

C. Doctors warn that premature cesarean section is a violation of the laws of nature.

D. The real important thing is to encourage children to let their imagination fly.

63. According to the passage, which one does NOT belong to the concept of “superstition” ？

A. You will have seven years of bad luck if you break a mirror.

B. Never open an umbrella under a roof or a shelter.

C. When you marry will determine what your marriage will be like.

D. A word once spoken can never be recalled.

64. The writer uses facts from the following fields EXCEPT____ to support his point of view.

A. culture B. science C. politics D. economy

D

Even before there were people, there were cases of air pollution. There were dust storms. Volcanoes erupted, sending ash and poisonous gases into the atmosphere. When people appeared on the scene and began their conquest of nature, they also began to pollute the air. They cleared land, which made possible even larger dust storms. They built cities, and the soot（煤烟） from their hearths filled the air. The Roman author Seneca wrote in A.D. 61 of the “stink, soot and heavy air”of the imperial city. In 1257, the Queen of England was forced to move away from the city of Nottingham because the heavy smoke was unbearable. The industrial revolution brought even worse air pollution. Coal was burned to power factories and to heat homes. Soot, smoke, and sulfur dioxide（二氧化硫） fill the air.

The good old days？ Not in the factory towns. But there were large rural areas unaffected by air pollution.

With increasing population, the entire world is becoming more urban. It is the huge cities that are most affected by air pollution. But rural areas are not unaffected. In the neighborhoods around smoky factories, there is evidence of increased rates of spontaneous abortion（自然流产） and of poor wool quality in sheep, decreased egg production and a high death rate in chickens.

Traffic police in Tokyo have to wear gas masks and take “oxygen breaks” —breathing occasionally from tanks of oxygen. Smog in Athena at times has forced factory closings and traffic restrictions. Acid rain in Canada is caused by air pollution in the United States, contributing to strained relationships between the two countries. Sydney, Rome, Tehran, Ankara, Mexico City, and most other major cities in the world have had frightening experiences of air pollution.

One of the two major types of smog—consisting of smoke, fog, sulfur dioxide, sulfuring acid （H2SO4）, ash and soot—is called London smog. Indeed, the word smog is thought to have originated in England in 1905 as a contraction of the words “smoke” and “fog.”

Probably the worst case of smog in history started in London on Thursday, 4 December, 1952. A large cold air mass moved into the valley of the Thames River. A temperature inversion placed a blanket of warm air over the cold air. With nightfall, a dense fog and below-freezing temperatures caused the people of London to put coal into their small stoves. Millions of these fires burned throughout the night, pouring sulfur dioxide and smoke into the air. The next day, Friday, the people continued to bum coal when the temperature remained below freezing. The factories added their smoke and chemical fumes to the atmosphere.

Saturday was a day of darkness. For twenty miles around London, no light came through the smog. The air was cold and still. And the coal fires continued to bum throughout the weekend. On Monday, 8 December, more than one hundred people died of heart attacks while trying desperately to breathe. By the time a breeze cleared the air on Tuesday, 9 December, more than 4,000 deaths had been caused by the smog.

Soot and ash can be removed by electrostatic precipitators（静电吸尘器）. Unfortunately, they use large amounts of electricity, and the electrical energy, which is hardly affordable for most of us, has to come from somewhere. Fly ash removed from the air has to be put on the land or water, although it could be used in some way.

The elimination（去除） of sulfur dioxide is more difficult. Low-sulfur coal is rare and expensive. Although sulfur can be washed from finely pulverized（粉末化） coal, the process is expensive. There are also processes for changing dirty coal into clean liquid and gaseous fuels. These processes may hold promise for the future, but they are too expensive to compete economically with other fuels at present. They also waste a part of the coal’s energy.

65. What is the passage mainly talking about？

A. The type and form of pollution.

B. The cause and effect of pollution.

C. The situation and elimination of pollution.

D. The concept and examples of pollution.

66. What can we infer from the first paragraph？

A. Human beings should not have begun their conquest of nature.

B. Human activities contribute more to pollution than natural disasters do.

C. Seneca and the Queen of England were both over-sensitive to air pollution.

D. The industrial revolution was a disadvantage in terms of air pollution.

67. With the example of “decreased egg production”in paragraph 3, the author intends to

A. explain why the world is becoming more urban

B. indicate that heavy pollution also exists in rural areas

C. show that large cities are most affected by air pollution

D. prove smoky factories are more affected by air pollution

68. What is the right order about the 1952 London Smog？

a. A breeze cleared the air of London.

b. Thousands of people died.

c. There was a day of darkness in London.

d. A large cold air mass caused a blanket of warm air over London.

e. London people made continuous fires from coal to keep warm.

A. d-e-c-b-a B. c-e-d-a-b C. d-c-e-b-a D. c-d-e-a-b

69. What does the author mainly want to say in the last two paragraphs？

A. The technology to remove air pollution is only currently in development.

B. Society must be prepared to spend whatever it takes to eliminate air pollution.

C. Air pollution control is too costly to be achieved at the current time.

D. Pollution can be controlled using man-made scientific techniques.

70. It can be inferred that when writing this article, the author was in a（n）_______ mood about the topic.

A. sympathetic B. optimistic C. desperate D. concerned

“New normal” is a popular term referring to China’s current economy. It means the Chinese economy has entered a new phase that is different from the high-speed growth pattern exhibited in the past. It is a new trend that features more sustainable, mid-to-high-speed growth with higher efficiency and lower costs.

During the new normal state, the growth slowdown from a high rate of around 10 percent to now about 7 to 8 percent is unavoidable.

The economy will also undergo comprehensive and fundamental changes. The service industry will gradually become a backbone（中坚） of the national economy and consumption will be the main source of demand. Along with that process of restructuring, some industries will suffer from the problem of over-productivity. Meanwhile, some new growth points will spring up.

Meanwhile the Chinese economy will transform from the production investment-driven model into an innovation-driven model. The prolonged difficulties facing manufacturing（制造业） industries show China can no longer rely on low cost production factors, as the prices of labor, resources and land are rising. Technological innovation must become the main driving force.

Under the new normal state, the service sectors will provide more new jobs than the manufacturing industries. In 2012, the latter industry created about 980 jobs while creating 100 million yuan of gross domestic product. The service industry can make 1,200 new jobs. The rise of service sectors’ proportion will increase GDP and create more jobs.

Authorities need to increase people’s income, especially the low-income group, who shows stronger buying power. The government will also have to cover all citizens with a basic social welfare net. Without a boost （提升） in income it would be difficult to boost consumption.

Before the “new normal” state, the Chinese economy overwhelmingly relied on investment and export. The changes of foreign demand and investment caused fluctuations（波动） in the economy. The periodic fluctuations will become milder under the new normal state in which the economy relies more on consumption. The stabilization of economic growth will also stabilize the price of goods. The consumer price index（CPI） only increased 2.6 percent in the past two years, and 2.3 percent in the first half of this year.

Innovation will become the most irreplaceable driving force for the restructuring of the

Chinese economy. Growth quality and efficiency will be higher on the agenda of enterprises and the society as a whole.

In general, the new normal state can boost China to transform its growth model, overcome the “middle-income trap”, and maintain mid-and-high-speed growth for a considerably long time.

With the widespread use of technologies like GPS and Intemet-connected cameras, parents can now keep an eye on their children wherever they are.

The combination of high-tech tools and highly-protective parents has set off the creation of a GPS-equipped wristwatch that allows parents to listen in real time to what their children are doing. The device has caused complaints from teachers since some parents began equipping their children with the watch so they can listen in on what happens at school.

A teacher surnamed You at a well-known primary school in Pudong New Area discovered

someone was eavesdropping（偷听） on her lessons after a parent of one of her students posted

something she said online while class was still on. You soon found out the parent had given her child a watch that could send out the sounds in the classroom to her mobile phone. Soon, other parents decided to equip their own children with the devices.

You was annoyed to find out her students' parents were spying on her. It made her feel as if they distrusted her. After You told her fellow teachers what had happened, they discovered that some of their students were also wearing the watches.

To keep an eve on their children, nowadays many parents are using a high-tech wristwatch when they are at school. Despite its convenience to the parents, teachers hold an negative attitude as they feel their lessons are spied on.

Generally, I stand on the teacher’s side. To begin with, those parents are caring too much for their children. Children are sent to school just to learn to be independent. With parents’ 24 hour care, how can they？ Secondly, wearing the wristwatch which often sends out sounds, it’s unavoidable students will be distracted in class, resulting in their underachievement in study. Last but most importantly, just as the teachers have argued, this equipment is a symbol of distrust in schools and an invasion of privacy to teachers and other students. No one can base their own convenience on others’ inconvenience.

Due to the above-mentioned reasons, I don’t support those parents’ practice.

W：What are you looking at, Jim？

M：I’m reading an article about the world’s homeless population.

W：Homeless population？

M：Yes - sociologists define homeless people as those who have no fixed shelter on any given night. These figures show five countries with large homeless population.

W：Wow, that’s amazing. I never realized that there were so many homeless people in Germany and France.

M：You know what？ Our own country the USA ranks number one among these countries!

W：Surely not! India tops the list with three million homeless people.

W：Hello.

M：This is Jim Evens from the Market Research Company. May I ask you a few questions？

M：About how many hours a week do you read newspapers then？

W：Oh, about two or three.

M：Ok. Now, do you read books regularly and , if so, what type？

W：Well, novels are my favorite but, to tell you the truth, I haven’t read one in quite a while. I’m taking a class at night, so the only books I’ve been reading lately are textbooks.

W：Not enough. I guess even or eight hours.

M：Thanks for your help.

W：You’re welcome.

W：Really？

M：Yes. You see, you can find a lot of information by entering the key words and searching form them.

W：That’s fantastic!

M：And the net can also help you do shopping. It’s called E-shopping.

W：How can I do shopping without going to the shops？

M：It’s easy. First you log on to an online shopping deliver service, which will give you the pictures of different goods. Then you simply point and clickaround the screen for the goods you want. The goods will be sent to you.

W：I can’t believe it. Let me have a try.

M：It can save you a lot of time.
