　　A 难度：★★

　　A new law makes it legal to have dogs in the outdoor areas of restaurants in New York. Past health and safety laws made it illegal to bring dogs to any restaurants in New York. This was to prevent the spread of diseases. State lawmakers voted in May to let people bring dogs to restaurants that have tables outdoors. These areas are often called patios (露台). Not one lawmaker voted no. Late Monday night, Governor Andrew Cuomo signed the law. New York joins California, Florida and Maryland in the list of states with similar laws.

　　In many European countries, bringing dogs to restaurants is common. Paris has allowed dogs to accompany their owners in restaurants for a long time.

　　Several special rules are included in this law. The dogs must be on a leash (皮带). Dogs must not share water bowls. Also, restaurants can choose to let people bring dogs or not.

　　But, not all New Yorkers are happy about this new law. Christopher Miller is the spokesman for the New York City Department of Health. He told the New York Daily News that letting dogs in restaurants could cause problems. “The Health Department loves all dogs, but just not at restaurants where they can create a risk to the health and safety of diners, restaurant workers and other dogs,” Miller said.

　　New York City is often the source of new trends and attitudes in the US. A law forcing some restaurants in the city to show the amount of calories in the food they served passed in 2009. Former Mayor Michael Bloomberg tried unsuccessfully to stop the sale of large amounts of soft drinks in 2017. Cigarette smoking was made illegal in restaurants in 1993. Governor Cuomo believes that this new law will help businesses grow by attracting dog owners. He also said this law “strikes the right balance” between health laws and flexibility for businesses.

　　1. Why was bringing dogs to restaurants forbidden in the past in New York?

　　A. To avoid conflict between dogs.

　　B. To keep the restaurants quiet.

　　C. To create a healthy environment.

　　D. To make room for more customers.

　　2. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

　　A. Restaurants in New York can still forbid dogs to enter.

　　B. All European countries allow bringing dogs to restaurants.

　　C. Dogs can’t share the dish with their owners in restaurants.

　　D. Dogs in New York are allowed to walk around in restaurants.

　　3. We can know from the passage that ____.

　　A. dogs are not welcomed by the Health Department

　　B. New York is always the first State that makes new laws

　　C. smoking is allowed in New York’s restaurants now

　　D. the law is beneficial to both restaurants and dog owners

　　B 难度：★★★

　　Madam C.J. Walker was a millionaire (百万富翁) at a time when African-American women usually cleaned houses for low pay. Madam C.J. Walker was a woman who embodied (体现) the great American dream. But more importantly, she used her fortune and influence to try to make a difference in her community.

　　Walker made her fortune by developing and creating hair-care products for African-American women. At that time, no one else was filling that demand. Walker took a very small idea, and turned it into a big company.

　　Walker was the first child in her family born in 1867 in Louisiana. Her parents had been slaves, but gained their freedom in 1865. Sadly, Walker was orphaned at 7 years old. She got married at 14, but her husband died when she was 20. In 1888, she moved to St. Paul, Minnesota, where she worked as a poor washer woman and developed her drive to succeed.

　　Surviving as a washer woman, she had to be good at marketing her skills, but then she took that to the next level, marketing her products. She traveled throughout the country after she married her third husband. She advertised for her products in the newspapers African-Americans read and had cards printed with her information on them. At a time without airplanes and telephones, she traveled across the country spreading the word of her company. She and her husband went to the Black churches in each town speaking with all the women. She used “before” and “after” pictures in ads, to show how well her products worked — something still done by her company and copied by others today.

　　Walker gave women power at a time when women could not even vote in the U.S. Her factory manager and national sales manager were all women. So she had a much bigger vision than just selling hair products. It was empowering (赋予……权利) women. It was helping them to understand their role in the community as leaders.

　　Walker died on May 25, 1919, leaving thousands of skilled women and lots of dollars to charitable organizations, educational institutions and political causes.

　　4. Walker’s successful business experience indicates that ____.

　　A. one must serve society after success

　　B. dissatisfaction leads to great success

　　C. it’s crucial to seize business opportunities

　　D. working hard is the most important

　　5. What was about Walker’s early life story?

　　A. She was born into freedom.

　　B. Her first husband died in 1885.

　　C. She was abandoned by her parents at 7.

　　D. She became a washer woman when she was 20.

　　6. What creative or pioneering work did Walker do?

　　A. She trained women to sell her products.

　　B. She used “before” and “after” pictures in ads.

　　C. She advertised her products in newspapers.

　　D. She went to churches to promote her products.

　　7. What can we infer about Walker from the passage?

　　A. Walker was the greatest woman at her time.

　　B. All of the employees in Walker’s company were women.

　　C. Walker was more of a politician than a businesswoman.

　　D. Walker made a great contribution to improving women’s right.

　　C 难度：★★★★

　　Fathers don’t mother, just as mothers don’t father. It is obvious from the start; they are less likely to use baby talk, choosing real words instead. They like their babies activated when they are interacting（互动）with them, while moms are more likely to comfort and hug babies. Play and surprise are more common in dad-baby interaction than with moms, who often prefer soothing and regulating routine(安慰和秩序调整).

　　Even the way a dad holds his baby — more commonly facing out than when a mom does, indicates that his job might be disparate from hers; more of a “let’s see what the world has for us today” than “I’ve got you safe and secure right here over my heart”. Safety and security are huge concerns for today’s parents. So, which approach is more likely to raise a secure child? Both — especially when combined together.

　　Attachment theory has been around for half a century, and been found to be essentially useless in explaining what is going on between fathers and their children. Secure attachments between mothers and children seem most uniquely effective in providing comfort when children are upset and anxious, and children are often upset and anxious in their early months and years. While fathers are committed to comforting their upset and anxious children, there is a unique component (成分) to their interactions with their children.

　　Fathers provide security using shared, controlled excitement through sensitive and sometimes challenging (‘You can do it!’) support as the child’s exploratory system gets excited by curiosity.

　　That roughhousing(嬉闹) that is so common between men and their children serves a purpose; while it is fun to both players, it also helps the father teach the child where the edge between play and trouble lies (‘No fingernails!’). When the father lets the child wander off a little further than the mom might at the park, he’s allowing the child exploration and curiosity, retrieving（找回） the child when something appears to threaten the security of such adventure.

　　That distinction is worth celebrating this Father’s Day. It’s why a dad is not just a substitute for a mom who so often bears the weight of being the “real parent”. Helping kids feel comforted when they’re upset and anxious is incredibly important to their sense of security, and so is the support they feel from being fathered when they start looking for the world beyond moms’ arms.

　　8. Which of the following might be the title of the passage?

　　A. Father: Just Another Mother

　　B. Father: Not Just Another Mother

　　C. Mother: Not Just Another Father.

　　D. Mother: Just Another Father

　　9. What does the underlined phrase “disparate from” mean?

　　A. Bad for.

　　B. Connected with.

　　C. Different from.

　　D. Similar to.

　　10. When children feel upset and anxious ____.

　　A. they often ask mothers for comfort

　　B. they like to turn to fathers for solutions

　　C. mothers are often the first to comfort them

　　D. fathers usually comfort them through communicating

　　11. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

　　A. Fathers’ often playing with children can improve their sense of security.

　　B. When children stay with fathers, they are more willing to explore.

　　C. Fathers play a more important role in raising a secure child.

　　D. Attachment theory can’t exactly explain father-child relationship.

　　D 难度：★★★

　　There are plenty of ways to define a good boss. In the past, a good boss was an order-giver and generally the only source of new ideas. Now, many workers define a good boss as a partner, with the ability to develop ideas in others. Here are three steps on your way to becoming a good boss.

　　Knowing when to go home: It used to be that managers were expected to have their light on last, to set an example for employees that long hours meant greater devotion to work. In fact, people are more fecund when they work closer to an eight-hour day, which helps them finish tasks efficiently (高效地). The message you need to send is that we don’t have to live at work and you can work for me and also have a life. A job shouldn’t be measured by how much time you or your employees are present but whether the job is being done well. The result isn’t just more time with family and friends for you — it’s setting a standard for your employees that shows you value their lives too.

　　Ending anti-mum offices: Most managers still have a widespread bias (偏见) against women, especially against young mothers, for they have to care for their kids. Good bosses will make allowances for (体谅) employees who are caring for children. Workers in offices where everyone matters, regardless of sex or race, will work harder. Really thoughtful organizations figure out how to be successful, while also making allowances for people who need to spend more time with their families.

　　Budget cuts done right: Cuts to your staff should be the last priority (优先考虑的事). Figuring out ways to save your employees will be rewarded later with their loyalty (忠诚). Avoid also cutting those seemingly small employee reward programs, like free coffee or cakes on birthdays, things that keep employees happy. “Loyalty goes away if your people are not seen as part of a team and the company isn’t willing to invest in them. Anytime you do any kind of finance, there are ways you can get creative.

　　12. The following statements are true EXCEPT ____.

　　A. the definition of a good boss has changed now

　　B. a good boss can develop employees’ ideas

　　C. women usually are not seen as the ideal worker

　　D. giving employees greater freedom increases their loyalty

　　13. According to the passage, a good boss should ____.

　　A. care more for his family than his work

　　B. set an example of working hard for employees

　　C. recognize that employees have a life outside of work

　　D. be able to keep the company budget in control

　　14. The underlined word “fecund” can be replaced by ____.

　　A. productive

　　B. patient

　　C. relaxed

　　D. optimistic

　　15. Why are young mothers more likely to be looked down upon by managers?

　　A. Because they have lower ability than men.

　　B. Because they can bear less pressure than men.

　　C. Because they will spend some time on children.

　　D. Because they can’t serve a company for a long time.
