Ⅳ.阅读理解
When I started my career in management，I was really green，but I always tried to stay positive on the job.I was working for a new company that was having a difficult time with its customers.Actually，at one point my General Manager told me he liked me and suggested I should start looking for a new job as we were about to lose our only order.Every day we faced people leaving the company，customers complaining，and upper management preparing to close the place.
One night，I went home thinking about the problems.My wife told me to forget about work and see a movie.We went and saw Slumdog Millionaire.Jamal，an eighteen－year－old
Indian young man，is from a poor family and becomes rich later.He tries his best to change his position.I realized what we needed to do was to correct the situation.
The next day I called my customers to have a talk.I promised to do my best to solve the problems if they would give us some time.As a result，we were given one month to turn the situation around.This was our only chance to correct the situation.To achieve this，I worked day and night with my team.I can remember working from 6 a．m.and not going home until 2 a．m.the next day.
To make a long story short，we succeeded in solving all of the problems and at the same time increased our productivity (生产率)．The customers and management were very happy，and I knew at that moment we had saved our jobs.Actually things went so well that we ended up having our pay doubled.
Through this experience I understand that you can achieve what you desire as long as you work at it and stay positive.

Ⅰ.单项填空
1．D 表示地点或方位的介词短语位于句首，用全部倒装。
2．A 否定词语置于句首，其后句子用倒装，故排除B、C；smoking与permit之间为动宾关系，应用被动语态。
3．B 考查动词辨析。swallow 吞咽；absorb 吸收；choke 噎住；allow 允许。
4．D 此处用award表示“授予诺贝尔奖”，其他动词均不能和prize连用表示“授予”。
5．A 句意为：众所周知，这种鹿主要以绿草为生。feed on相当于live on，意为“以……为主食”，此处deer应为复数，若为单数，则在其前加a。
6．B 句意为：通过志愿者工作，他们积累了一定的工作经验。accumulate 积累。attempt 尝试；abandon 抛弃，放弃；accomplish 完成。
7．D 句意为“你把实情告诉我了，这对我很有好处。” service意为“服务；帮助；益处”。effort 努力；effect 作用，影响；task 任务。
8．A by表示手段方式；for his age 就他的年龄而言。
9．D concerning作介词，意为“有关；关于”。
10．C 句意为：我以前一定在哪儿见过他，可我一时想不起他的名字了。此处escape意为“被遗忘，被忽略”。flee逃走，逃避；forbid禁止，不许；forget忘记。
11．B 据题意火车相撞后，应该是“一片惊慌的场面(a scene of panic)”。scene可数名词，场面，场景。scenery不可数名词，风景，风光；sighting看见，目睹；sign迹象，征兆。
12．B 句意为：这个孤儿因饥饿而感到绝望，别无它法只好去乞讨。desperate(因绝望而)不顾一切的，在句中形容词短语作原因状语。be associated with和……联系在一起，不符合语境。
13．C 该题考查的是带有with的复合结构，因此排除A项。根据句意，“员工们都正在忙着准备今晚的宴会”推断，应该是“有大量的食物将要准备”，所以用with sth.to do的结构。
14．B accomplish通常接task，mission，journey，voyage等名词，表示“完成(任务等)，取得(成功)”。attain获得；accumulate积累；perform执行，履行，指采取某行动或步骤。
15．A whisper意为“低声地说；耳语”，根据“我听不到窗户旁的两个女孩说的话”，可知在想“她们正在嘀咕什么？”shout喊叫；explain解释；scream尖叫。
