第二节 完型填空(共20小题:每小题1. 5分,满分30分)
A
My husband and I have been together for six years, and with him I had watched as his young children became young teenagers. They
say “I love you”, or even call me Mom. And I didn’t ask them to do this way, because I
37
that I couldn’t take the place of their real mother. When the children went to college, we quickly
38
an e-mail and chat-line service to keep in touch with them.
Late one evening, as my husband snoozed (打盹) and I was
my e-mail, an “instant message” from Margo, my stepdaughter, appeared on the screen. As we had done in the past, we sent several
40
back and forth, exchanging the latest news. That night she didn’t ask if it was me or her dad on the other end of the keyboard, and I didn’t
41
myself either. After a while, I commented that it was
42
and I should get to sleep. The return message read, “Okay, talk to you later! Love you!”
A wave of
43
ran through me, and I realized that she might have thought she was writing to her father. I
44
responded, “Love you, too! Have a good sleep!”
Then, Margo’s final message appeared, “Tell Dad ‘good night’ for me too.”
Suddenly, I realized that they’ve
45
me for so many years. It’s me who dare not to accept. I
46
the chatting record preciously. It often
47
me that the one to be loved should have courage, too.
36. A. never
B. usually
C. often
D. finally

B. knew
C. insisted

D. seems
B
Facebook is a social website that attracted millions of members. But it seems that some people have something
48
to say about it. To them I have only this to say: stop, please!
A recent article blamed Facebook’s ability to ruin
49
, saying that it limits communication to typing and encourages people to spend far too much time with friends they have
50
met.
Having used Facebook since its first year, I find these arguments false. The simple truth is that these
51
are only a symptom of using Facebook too much. Like many things, it is only as
52
to your life and relationships as you allow it to be.
Facebook can be helpful. You can use Facebook to find friends who may have long ago
53
their e-mail addresses and phone numbers. You can find out what your old college friends are up to. You can
54
your friends on their latest birthday. You can also share articles and pictures you find interesting with your friends.
Sure, I had days when I
55
a little more time on Facebook than I should, but I’m not going to blame Facebook for my own fault. If Facebook were’t there, I would have found something else to waste time.
48. A. pleasant
B. new
C. interesting
D. bad
49. A. friendships
B. hopes
C. schools
D. feelings
50. A. usually
B. sometimes
C. never
D. often
51. A. games
B. purposes
C. answers
D. problems
52. A. necessary
B. harmful
C. kind
D. strange
53. A. reported
B. checked
C. changed
D. made
54. A. congratulate
B. inform
C. celebrate
D. meet
55. A. saved
B. spent
C. wanted
D. devoted

I am writing to you today, in order to express my gratitude to your kind staff who took good care of me when I was in your hospital for the treatment of my disease.
I would like to thank Miss Diana, my nurse, who looked after me as a daughter, and my doctor Director Yang, translator Dr. Emma, nurses Joy &Rose and all the other staff. What’s more, I have to mention Dr. Sanny who patiently answered questions about the Chinese traditional herbal treatment of the disease. Of course, what also moved me was that he guided me to your hospital in person. His polite and cooperating personality in marketing is really your hospital’s treasure and pride.
I, along with my husband and my daughter, was on my last-hope-trip way to China with the effective dream of the treatment . On the first day, we were welcomed by a lot of people in your hospital, who assisted and guided us to the sickroom and helped us arrange everything besides, making us more aware of the disease and condition day by day was the other positive factor. For around the clock, different doctors and nurses were looking after me until the day I left the hospital.
I can’t appreciate enough because of the good things all above. However, I have a suggestion as well, which I believe can help you to increase foreign patients satisfaction.

D
All around the world, shoppers flock to Wal-Mart to buy everything.In Texas, they come for another reason: to see the wind turbine(涡轮机), which supplies 5% of the store's electricity.It along with other facilities, such as exterior walls coated with heat-reflective paint, makes this
Wal-Mart a green giant.
The laws of economics suggest that Wal-Mart, with 5, 200 stores worldwide, influences everything including the price of all kinds of goods.It throws its weight behind environmental responsibility, and the effects could be amazing."One little change in product packaging could
save 1, 500 trees," says Wal-Mart CEO Lee Scott."If everybody saves 1, 500 trees or 50 barrels of oil, at the end of the day you have made a huge difference”
Scott wants Wal-Mart to do its part too.He has promised to cut the existing greenhouse-gas emissions(排放)over the next few years and promised to construct new stores that are more efficient.He wants Wal-Mart's fleet(车队)of more than 7, 000 trucks to get twice as many miles per gallon by 2015.Factories that show Wal-Mart they're cutting air pollution will get preferential treatment in the supply chain.Wal-Mart says it's working with consumer-product manufacturers to
reduce their packaging and will reward them if they do so.
Some people may doubt it is a bid to attract attention from Wal-Mart's controversial labor and health-insurance practices.But it's not just window dressing, because Wal-Mart sees profits in going green.Scott says, "This is a business philosophy, not a social philosophy. We don't go where we don't think there's a great interest in change.”
Like Bill Gates, who started his charitable foundation, Scott happens to be promoting Wal-Mart's image at a time when his company's reputation is declining.He acknowledges that he launched the plan partly to shield(保护,庇护)Wal-Mart from bad press about its contribution to global warming." By doing what we're doing today, we avoid the headline risks that are going to come for people who did not do anything," he says."At some point businesses will be held responsible for the actions they take." Meanwhile, should Wal-Mart succeed at shrinking its environmental footprint and lowering prices for green products, both the planet and the company will profit.
68. We can infer from the passage that ______.
A. Lee Scott is Wal-Mart's CEO
B. there are 5,200 stores in the world
C. Wal-Mart has a great influence on the world market
D. Wal-Mart has more than 7, 000 trucks all over the world
. What does the underlined sentence "This is a business philosophy, not a social philosophy." mean in the fourth paragraph?
A. Wal-Mart predicts huge profits in its green activity.
B. Wal-Mart's green activity is just window dressing.
C. Wal-Mart aims to solve its health-insurance practices.
D. Wal-Mart doesn't have any social responsibility at all.
7. What will Wal-Mart probably do in the future?
A. Reduce air pollution in its present stores.
B. Give favorable treatment to its consumers.
C. Ask the factories to reduce their packaging.
D. Demand the fleet of trucks to use more fuel than before.
7. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?
A. Provide the background of the green plan.
B. Analyze the similarity between Bill Gates and Scott.
C. Present the risk that Wal-Mart is facing nowadays.
D. Stress the purpose of Wal-Mart's green plan.
E
The word proactivity is fairly common in management literature, but you won't find it in the dictionary. It means that as a human being you take responsibility for your own life.
Look at the word responsibility: ability to choose your response, response-ability. Effective people are proactive because they take responsibility. Their behavior is a product of their own decisions, based on values, rather than being a product of their own conditions, based on feelings. For instance, you are planning a picnic with your family. You're excited. You have all the preparations. You've decided where to go, and then it becomes stormy, killing your plan. Proactive people carry weather within them. They realize what their purpose really was, and they creatively have a picnic elsewhere even if it's in their own basement with some special games, and make the best of that situation. The opposite of being proactive is to be reactive. Reactive people would say, "What's the use?" "We can't do anything." "Oh this is so upsetting after all of our preparations and arrangements. " They try to persuade the people around them and usually the picnic will be cancelled.
Being proactive is really just being true to your human nature. Your basic nature is to act, and not to be acted upon. That's true, despite widely accepted theories of determinism used to explain human nature. Determinism says that you don't really choose anything and that what you call choices are nothing more than automatic responses to outside conditions.
The language of reactive people is like: " I can't." " Don't have time." " I have to." " I must."
The whole spirit of that language is the transfer(转移)of responsibility. They think things are determined by their environment, or by their conditions, or by their conditioning or their genetic(基因的)makeup. Psychologically, people who believe they are determined will produce the evidence to support the belief, and they increasingly feel victimized and out of control. They're not in charge of their life at all.
On the contrary, a proactive person exercises free will, the freedom to choose the response that best applies to his values. In that way, he gains control over the circumstances, rather than being controlled by them.
72.According to the passage, a proactive person's behavior can result from ______.
A.the environment
B.an inner belief
C.the genetic makeup
D.a temporary feeling
7.When a picnic plan is threatened by a sudden storm, reactive people will probably _______.
A.have the picnic as planned
B.make the best of the picnic
C.complain and give up the picnic
D.find somewhere else for the picnic
7.What does "carry weather within them" in the second paragraph probably mean?
A.Manage to improve the weather.
B.Give in to the weather passively.
C.Stress the influence of the weather.
D.Find a solution to the weather problems.
.It can be concluded from the passage that determinists ______.
A.accept things passively
B.are in charge of themselves
C.are similar to proactive people
D.respond to outside conditions actively
