　　(Reuters)—Apple co­founder Steve Jobs, who changed the

　　daily habits of millions by reinventing computing, music and mobile

　　phones, died of pancreatic cancer(胰腺癌)at the age of 56. Jobs

　　was surrounded by his wife and immediate family when he died in

　　Palo Alto, California. Jobs, a Buddhist, was born in San Francisco. He started Apple Computer with friend Steve Wozniak in his parents' garage in 1976.

　　visionary leader who inspired personal computing and world­known products such as the iPod, iPhone and iPad, which made Jobs one of the greatest industry leaders of his generation. Jobs stepped down as CEO in August 2011 and handed the power to operation's chief Tim Cook.

　　“The world has lost a genius. And there may be no greater tribute to Steve's success than the fact that much of the world learned of his passing on a device he invented，” U．S. President Barack Obama said in a statement. “For those of us lucky enough to get to work with him, it's been a great honor，” said Microsoft's Bill Gates, who once defeated Jobs but has seen the leading status replaced by the Apple co­founder in recent years. Fans paid homage to Jobs outside Apple stores around the world from Los Angeles to Sydney.

　　A college drop­out and the son of adoptive parents, Jobs changed the technology world in the late 1970s, when the Apple II became the first personal computer to gain customers. Apple Wednesday paid homage to its visionary leader by changing its website to a big black­and­white photograph of him with the words“Steve Jobs：1955—2011.”

　　Outside Jobs' house in Palo Alto, neighbors and friends left flowers and drew messages with markers on the sidewalk. “Thanks for changing the world，”read one. “He was special for the area, like part of the family，” said Robert Blum, who brought flowers with his eight­year­old son, Daniel.

　　TransLink is urging customers to avoid non­essential travel today and to stay home where possible in the difficult weather conditions.

　　TransLink chief executive officer Peter Strachan said bus and train services were continuing to run where possible, however all CityCat and CityFerry services had been cancelled until further notice.

　　“These are extremely difficult conditions for South East Queensland—we are running essential services where possible but safety remains to be the most important，” Mr Strachan said.

　　Severe weather and associated flooding has impacted on all modes of public transport, with bus, ferry and train services all impacted to varying degrees.“If you are planning to use public transport at anytime over the next few days, then I would recommend you check that your intended service is still running.”

　　Service disruptions (中断) for today include：

　　City network trains running hourly on all lines.

　　Bus diversions, delays and cancellations in some regions, particularly across Brisbane, Ipswich and the Sunshine Coast.

　　CityCat and CityFerry services cancelled.

　　Queensland Rail Chief Executive Officer Paul Scurrah said rising waterways had closed some train lines, and road closures and damage to property throughout the South­East had contributed to a shortage of available rail employees.

　　“We intend to run trains hourly on all lines, similar to the timetable we operate on Christmas Day. We will also be looking to run other additional services to meet demand as required. At this stage we will run services stopping at all stations which will depart at the same time on the hour; however, this is all subject to the weather conditions and the availability of traincrew.”

　　Mr Scurrah encouraged all customers to visit the Translink website for specific departure times for their station, and asked for patience in the event of delays.

　　“Queensland Rail appreciates that reduced services may cause disruptions but it is simply unavoidable. We have a dedicated and experienced team monitoring the situation around the clock and will be working to reopen the network as soon as practically possible，” Mr Scurrah said.

　　The latest service disruption information is available on the TransLink website.

　　Bright red post boxes, the Queen and queuing—what do they all have in common? They are all important parts of British life. At least I thought so.

　　However, the ability to queue for long periods of time, once believed to be a traditional characteristic of the British, is no longer tolerated by people in the UK, according to a survey done for British bank Barclays.

　　Once upon a time, queuing was seen as normal. During World War II, everyone had to queue up to receive their daily supply of foods. In fact, if you didn't stand up and wait in line with all the others, it was seen as uncivilized(不文明的)．

　　The famous English double­decker buses, with only one entrance, might also help explain why queuing was seen as a part of British line. Almost always, there is a queue to get on.

　　But perhaps the British are tired of being pushed past by the Spanish, the Italians or the French as they queue up to get a table at a restaurant. The people of these other European countries have more than one entrance to their houses, which explains their more relaxed attitude to the queue.

　　Two minutes is now the longest time most British people are prepared to stand and wait. But could it be that the Internet, which allows us to carry out tasks quickly, is the main reason why British people are no longer prepared to queue?

　　“Used to buying without delay, customers are even giving up purchases rather than wait their turn，” says Stuart Neal of Barclaycard. “Shoppers are also less likely to queue for long if the item they are buying is of low value.”

　　Perhaps I will have to replace “queuing” with “impatience” in my list of things I relate to the British.

　　文章大意：排队曾经是英国文化的象征。但是一项研究表明这一现象已经发生了很大的变化。

　　67．What can we learn about the tradition of queuing in Britain?

　　A. It was a product of the slow pace of life.

　　B. It was a long time tradition as old as the Queen.

　　C. It was considered a symbol of a civilized behavior.

　　D. It has made the British different from other Europeans.

　　68．According to the passage, the British gradually stopped queuing because________.

　　A. they prefer shopping online

　　B. they follow the example of foreigners

　　C. British buses have more than one entrance

　　D. the Internet has changed their way of life

　　69．It can be learned from the text that________.

　　A. the British get impatient with queuing for long

　　B. the British have to queue to receive food

　　C. the British like to eat in foreign restaurants

　　D. the British prefer to take double­decker buses

　　70．The author's main purpose of writing the passage is______.

　　A．to tell us the influence of the Internet on the British ways of life

　　B．to compare the cultural difference between Britain and other countries

　　C．to talk about the changes in the attitude to queuing in Britain

　　D．to report his research on the British ways of life

　　(2017·湘潭二模)

　　Having good etiquette(礼节)at the workplace is very important to be a favorite in an office. However, it's observed that many people aren't aware of the workplace etiquette and this creates a very bad impression in the office. So it's important to know some workplace etiquette tips.

　　Among all the workplace etiquette guidelines(指南)，the most important is to be punctual to your office. Though going late due to an emergency is okay, habitual late comers are never appreciated in any organization. By arriving at your office on time, you show that you're aware of your responsibilities and have respect for the organization. In case you feel that you would be late, call the concerned authority and report the matter to him or her.

　　Also, a proper knowledge of the workplace email etiquette is a must. In the official emails, you need to mention the subject concisely(简洁地)，while at the same time include all the important details which are to be shared. You should use good and grammatically correct language while writing emails.

　　A knowledge of telephone etiquette in the workplace is very important as well. While talking on the telephone, be polite and listen to what they're saying carefully. Only then should you say what you feel. Speak in a voice which would be heard clearly at the other end.

　　The workplace guidelines are important even while you're dining or celebrating with your co­workers. If you get a call in between, receive it after you're permitted by the others by saying “excuse me”. Don't talk loudly while eating. Greet people well and try to make them feel comfortable while being in your company.

　　These guidelines will help you become the best employee of a company. All the best!

　　详解答案

　　21答案：A　考查冠词。句意：如果你要找机会提高自己的英语水平，我觉得英语角就是一个明智的选择。由句意可知，这两个空都是泛指。

　　答案：B　考查强调句型。此处强调的是时间状语shortly after that serious accident happened。

　　答案：A　考查主谓一致和时态。aswellas连接两个名词作主语时，谓语动词的单复数由其前面的名词决定，所以此处应该是根据equipment确定用单数；再由状语从句中since可知，应该用现在完成时。

　　答案：D　考查定语从句。句意：甲壳虫乐队来自利物浦，你们许多人能记得。as引导非限制性定语从句，指代前面的整个句子。

　　答案：B　考查虚拟语气。句意：要是我把更多的精力投入到学习中而不是痴迷网络游戏，那么我现在就会坐在舒适的办公室里了。由句意可知，从句表示和过去的事实相反，所以应该用过去完成时，此处省略了if，把had提前了。

　　答案：C　考查时态和语态。首句句意：—时间就要到了。我们快要错过公交车了。由句意可知，选进行时态表将来。run out无被动语态，所以选C项。

　　答案：B　考查交际英语。由前句可知，应该选Congratulations，意思是“恭喜，恭喜”。

　　答案：B　考查非谓语动词。句意：看到前面的车突然翻了，一开始他很吃惊，但是他很快平静下来，把车停在旁边，立即开始施救。由句意可知，他很惊讶，所以用shocked。该句though后省略了句子的主语he，和动词be的形式was，也可以补充在though后，得出填shocked。

　　答案：A　考查名词。句意：为了保护环境，人们被鼓励乘公交出行。public transport“公交”。

　　答案：A　考查时态。句意—“安娜，手里拿着这么多东西，你要去哪儿？”—“去办公室。它已经移到了三楼上。”由句意可知，选现在进行时表将来。

　　答案：B　考查主动表被动。comfortable是形容词，后面的不定式应该用主动表被动，所以排除C、D两项；再由句意可知，介词on不能没有。

　　答案：A　考查动词短语。句意：虽然简在很大程度上同意我的话，但是事实上在某些方面她绝不会让步。give in“让步，屈服”；give out“分发，耗尽”；give away“捐赠，泄漏”；give off“发出(气味、声音、光等)”。

　　答案：D　考查定语从句。由短语attach...to...“把……和……联系起来”可知。

　　答案：B　考查介词短话。句意：前不久在中央一台播放的电视剧《辛亥革命》是为了纪念辛亥革命100周年的。in favor of“支持，赞成”；in honor of“为了纪念……”；in place of“代替”；in

　　答案：B　考查倒装。“Only＋状语”置于句首，要用倒装结构形式；再由从句when I woke up可知，应该用一般过去时。

　　答案：A　扛了两个小时的沙袋，我当然身上“很脏”。

　　答案：D　所有人都誓死保卫自己的“家园”。

　　答案：B　你打开电视的任何一个“频道”都会看到“洪灾”的报道。channel“频道”。

　　答案：A　flood“洪涝灾害”。

　　答案：A　“尽管”那条河离这儿很远，但是我仍然为那些眼睁睁“看着”自己的家园被淹的人们“感到”难过。even though“尽管，即使”，however“然而”；as long as“只要”；if only“要是……该多好啊”。

　　答案：C　feel“觉得，感到”；sense“觉察”；notice“注意”；find“找到”；feel sorry for...“同情……；为……感到难过”。

　　答案：D　watch“看，观察”。

　　答案：D　我睡觉时，心里有难过的“感觉”。

　　答案：C　第二天，母亲把我们姐妹唤醒，要我们把东西“打包”。pack“打包，整理”。

　　答案：B　洪水离我们“仍然”有点远，但是母亲不想“冒险”。still“仍然”；ever“曾经”；only“只要”；just“刚刚”。

　　答案：A　take chances“冒险”。

　　答案：B　父亲呆在医院里继续工作，“因为”“护士”人手很短缺。

　　答案：B　见上题解释，医院里当然是缺少“护士”。

　　答案：A　飞机库很拥挤，很“吵闹”。由后文我烦得要睡觉也可推出。

　　答案：B　空前后是因果关系，所以选as a result“因此”；after all“毕竟，别忘了”；above all“最重要的是”；as a whole“总之”。

　　答案：B　前面讲到“we all piled in the car”，所以是“驱车”前往祖父母的农场。

　　答案：B　我们在五月二十九日“离开”那个小镇。

　　答案：C　回到家，我“发现”洪水从未进到我家。find out“查明，弄清楚”。

　　答案：A　我们都为我们的好运感到“感激；庆幸”。

　　答案：D　清理工作还在进行，生活也要“继续”。

　　答案：A　词义推测题。短文第三段首句是美国总统奥巴马在苹果总裁乔布斯逝世后发表的言论，推测依据在前一句The world has lost a genius，“世界失去了一位天才”。奥巴马：“世界失去了一位梦想家。世界上很多人都是通过他所发明的设备获知他辞世的消息，这也许是对乔布斯的成功最好的赞颂。”passing系death的委婉表达方式。

　　答案：D　细节理解题。根据短文第四段第一句可以得知答案为D，该句讲到Jobs从大学退学，被养父母抚养成人等信息。

　　答案：C　主旨大意题。短文改编自路透社在苹果公司总裁去世后发布的资讯，短文讲述了他的死讯和伟大贡献以及去世后世界名人和苹果迷们对他的追思，C项概括了短文大意；B项过于宽泛和笼统，不宜作为此条资讯的标题。

　　答案：B　细节理解题。由最后一家旅馆第一句话“Located in noising Sanlitun, the Opposite House is a relaxing place where classic meets fashion.”可知。

　　答案：A　细节理解题。比较几家旅馆的价格和内部设施就可选出正确答案。

　　答案：C　细节理解题。第三家旅馆中有“hutong”一词，所以应该住这家旅馆。这家旅馆的网址是dugecourtyard.com。

　　答案：D　推理判断题。由文章大意可知，本文介绍的是北京的几家奢华而独特的旅馆的情况以方便游客选择，所以应该是出现在报纸的旅游专栏。

　　答案：A　推理判断题。由前两段可知，TransLink是一家交通公司。

　　答案：C　细节理解题。由第二段“all CityCat and CityFerry services had been cancelled until further notice.”可知，轮渡和CityCat不可用。

　　答案：C　细节理解题。由第三段“...safety remains to be the most important”可知。

　　Dear Mary，

　　I'm now on holiday at the Bayview Hotel. This is a nice family­run hotel on sea front. In the yard there's a swimming pool. From the hotel windows you can see the sea and mountains. There's also a restaurant which offers good food and there are nice bars, too. The people here are friendly and helpful.

　　The holiday offers various activities. I went sailing in the sea on Monday. And on Monday evening I saw a new Spielberg film. On Tuesday I had a coach trip to an old town, which is a popular place of interest and in the evening I went to a disco party.

　　It's the most enjoyable holiday I've ever had. I like it here so much that I've already decided that I must come again next year. I do hope you'll come with me. I'm already looking forward to that!

　　Yours,

　　Tom
