四、One possible version
It is universally accepted that filial piety is an important virtue in China. It means respecting and caring for parents and the elderly.
Take my parents for example. After my grandma died last year, my parents spent much
time chatting with my grandpa, accompanying him on walks and cooking him delicious food. At first, my grandpa seemed to be happy about it, but as time went by, he became uneasy, because he was not used to leading so comfortable a life. Therefore, my parents encouraged him to attend some activities in our community. They also encouraged him to go to a drawing class in a school for the old, which gave my grandpa a great sense of achievement. He became happy again.
My parents set a good example to me. In my opinion, the real filial piety is giving the old what they really need.

Ⅶ.阅读理解
The oldfashioned general store is fast disappearing.This is,perhaps,a pity,because shopping today seems to lack those personal elements which existed when the shopkeeper knew all his regular customers personally.He could,for instance,remember which brand of tea Mrs.Smith usually bought or what sort of washing powder Mrs.Jones preferred.Not only was the shop a center of buying and selling,but a social meeting place.
A prosperous(繁荣的) general store might have employed four or five assistants,and so there were very few problems in management as far as the staff(全体职员) was concerned.But now that the supermarket has replaced the general store,the job of the manager has changed completely.The modern supermarket manager has to cope with a staff of as many as a hundred,apart from all the other everyday problems of running a large business.
Every morning the manager must,like the commander of an army division,carry out an inspection of his supermarket to make sure that everything is ready for the business of the day.He must see that everything is running smoothly.He will have to give advice and make decisions as problems arise,and he must know how to get his huge staff to work efficiently with their respective responsibilities.No matter what he has to do throughout the day,the supermarket manager must be ready for any emergency that may arise.They say in the trade that you are not really an experienced supermarket manager until you have dealt with a flood,a fire,a birth and a death in your store.
1.The main purpose of the passage is to show________.
A.how the supermarket has replaced the old general store
B.how the oldfashioned general store is fast disappearing
C.how supermarket managers deal with problems every morning
D.how the role of the shop manager has undergone an overall change
2.It is a pity that there are fewer old general stores now,because________.
A.there is less trading business
B.there used to be more social activities in the old days
C.supermarket managers have more problems
D.there is less personal contact between managers and customers
3.Who are Mrs.Smith and Mrs.Jones mentioned in the first paragraph?
A.People representing any of the customers of the old general store.
B.Shop assistants.
C.Friends of the shop manager’s.
D.Two regular customers of the store.
4.How has the job of the store manager changed?
A.He doesn’t sell tea or washing powder any more.
B.He has a much larger staff and a much larger business to take care of.
C.He must try hard to remember the names of the regular customers.
D.He has to give advice and make decisions when problems arise.
5.The author compared the supermarket manager to________.
A.a military leader
B.a school inspector
C.a traffic supervisor
D.an orchestra conductor
Ⅷ.任务型阅读/任务型读写
Almost every career requires such skills as listening,speaking,reading,writing,decision making,researching,reasoning,creativity,persuasion,leadership,interpersonal communication and organization.In addition,a number of characteristics that may be important for specific jobs:achievement,aggressiveness,ambition,dependability,discipline,honesty,initiative,motivation,people orientation,persistence,responsibility,selfconfidence,selfstarting,sensitivity,sincerity,tenacity and toughmindedness.The way you acquire these skills and behaviors is,to a great extent,up to you.Without them,no matter how bright and knowledgeable you may be,landing a top job is of extreme difficulty,if not impossible.The most likely way to obtain these skills and behaviors is through courses,reading,internships,parttime or full time employment,extracurricular activities,and participation in community functions.
Knowing what an employer is looking for in a potential employee can help an applicant to prepare for an interview.An interview for a major corporation was asked these questions:What specific skills are you looking for in applicants?And how do you identify these skills?He responded:
Most important for us in the way of skill is the ability to communicate—can people speak clearly?Can they articulate the kind of person they believe themselves to be?In what kind of work situations do they perform well?What are their strengths and weaknesses?We want to know about the personal qualities of the individual,so I try to ask questions to draw them out and attempt to find out if they have a sense of themselves.What I’m looking for is an ability to verbalize an idea in clear,simple,understandable language.I’m also looking for the ability to listen attentively and then to be able to respond to an idea or thought that has been presented to them.If they do have good communication skills,they will be able to do this logically and succinctly.
I am looking for creativity—can they be spontaneous?I will ask some “offthewall” questions just to see if this throws them.How do they respond in these tough situations—can they be creative with their answers?This is very important when they are out in business situations with customers.They will have to respond to very sudden changes and problemsolving situations that they are not necessarily familiar with,and I want to know if they can handle them.
What we look for the most are personal qualities—assertiveness,selfmotivation,drive,ambition,and a competitive instinct.They should be high achievers and want to work hard.I can usually tell about these qualities from the way the person presents himself or herself and some of the activities they have engaged in.I pick up things from the applications and resume—how they have written them and the kinds of things they say.How they present their experiences is often very informative.For example,an assertive person will say,“I can do these things” and “I decided on this course of action”, whereas a more passive person might say,“These are the experiences I have had.”All of these things describe the person in some way.

语篇定位
本文是一篇说明文。传统风格的商店正在消失,为此,作者感到十分遗憾,因为今天的超市缺乏人文特点。文章着重分析了现代超市的经理的工作特点。
长难句分析
Every morning the manager must,like the commander of an army division,carry out an inspection of his supermarket to make sure that everything is ready for the business of the day.
本句是一个复合句。其中主语是the manager,谓语是carry out,an inspection是句子的宾语;其中like介词短语用作主语的定语;不定式短语“to make sure...”是目的状语,其中that引导一个宾语从句。句意为:每天早晨,经理,就像一位师级司令官一样,必须检查整个超市,以确保为当天的生意做好各种准备。
1.D [主旨大意题。联系全文的内容可知,文章重点介绍了现代超市的经理所要做的一系列工作,突出了现在经理的工作与过去相比发生了很大的变化。]
2.D [推理判断题。根据第一段中的“This is,perhaps,a pity,...”可知,如今的购物似乎缺少人文性,由此可以推知D项为最佳答案。]
3.D [细节理解题。根据第一段可知,这里的Mrs.Smith和Mrs.Jones指代传统商店里的两个一般顾客,所以D项的意思与文意相符。]
4.B [细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The modern supermarket...”可知B项为最佳答案。]
5.A [细节理解题。由文章最后一段中的“Every morning the manager must,...”可知,作者把经理比喻成师级的司令官。]
