A 26-year-old Montreal man appears to have succeeded in his quest to barter a single, red paper clip(夹子) all the way up to a house. It took almost a year and 14 trades, but Kyle MacDonald has been offered a two-storey farmhouse in Kipling, Sask., for a paid role in a movie.
MacDonald began his quest last summer when he decided he wanted to live in a house. He didn’t have a job, so instead of posting a resumé, he looked at a red paper clip on his desk and decided to trade it on an Internet website. The response was immediate —a fish pen was offered for exchange. MacDonald then bartered the fish pen for a handmade doorknob from a potter in Seattle.
In Massachusetts, MacDonald traded the doorknob for a camp stove. He traded the stove to a U.S. soldier in California for a generator. Then he exchanged the generator for an “instant party kit” — an empty keg(小桶) and an illuminated Budweiser beer sign. MacDonald then traded the keg and sign for a snowmobile. He bartered all the way up to an afternoon with rock star Alice Cooper, a KISS snow globe and finally a paid role in a Corbin Bernsen movie.
“Now, I’m sure the first question on your mind is, ‘Why would Corbin Bernsen trade a role in a film for a snow globe? A KISS snow globe,’ MacDonald said on his website.”Well, Corbin happens to be arguably one of the biggest snow globe collectors on the planet.
Now, the town of Kipling, Sask., Canada, with a population of 1,100, has offered MacDonald a farmhouse in exchange for the role in the movie. The town is going to hold a competition for the movie role.
MacDonald said: “There’re people all over the world that are saying that they have paper clips clipped to the top of their computer, or on their desk or on their shirt, and it proves that anything is possible and I think to a certain degree it’s true.”
MacDonald, who has attracted international media attention in his quest, said the journey has turned out to be more exciting than the goal. “This is not the end. This may be the end of this part of the story, but this story will go on.”
1.The best title for this passage is “ ”.
A.A lucky paper clip B. From poor to rich
C.A lucky young man D. From paper clip to house
2.The underlined word in line 1 means .
A. to get something for free B. to sell something at a price
C. to sell goods on the Internet D. to exchange goods for other goods
3.Which shows the correct order of the trades?
A. Paper clip?snow globe?snowmobile?house
B. Paper clip?keg of beer?doorknob?snowmobile
C. Paper clip?camp stove?snowmobile?movie role
D. Paper clip?keg of beer?camp stove?snowmobile
4.Which statement about MacDonald’s trades is TRUE?
A. All of his trades were done in his country.
B.A film role was offered due to Bernsen’s hobby.
C. They took over a year and some of them were really unbelievable.
D. The house in Kipling has been offered to MacDonald to attract media.
5.What can we learn about MacDonald?
A. He wanted to gain fame through his quest.
B .His success largely depended on the Internet.
C. He never expected his aim could be achieved.
D. He intends to begin another quest on the Web.

首先请阅读下列6出电影的简要介绍,并按照要求匹配信息。
A.It is about the legend of vampire, the story of the wolf man, the
campus life, moved love story, horror, adventure and other elements. The story
begins with the main character, Isabella (Bella) Swan, moving from Phoenix, to
the small town of Forks, a dreary and rain-filled place, to live with her
father. She develops a relationship with fellow student, Edward Cullen, who
initially annoys her, but despite a rough beginning, they fall in love. After
witnessing some strange behavior from Edward, Bella eventually discovers that
he is a vampire, but despite the very real risk to her life, she cannot bear to
be apart from him. Eventually Bella is introduced to Edward’s vampire family,
not all of who welcome her with open arms, however, it is Edward’s family that
go to great lengths to save Bella when her life is threatened.
B. With an absent father and a withdrawn and
depressed mother, 17 year-old Ree Dolly keeps her family together in a dirt
poor rural area. She's taken backwards however when the local Sheriff(县治安官) tells her that her father put up
their house for his bail(保释)and unless he shows up for
his trial in a week's time, they will lose it all. She knows her father is
involved in the local drug trade and manufactures crystal meth but anywhere she
goes the message is the same: stay out of it and stop poking your nose in other
people's business. She refuses to listen, even after her father's brother,
Teardrop, tells her he's probably been killed. She pushes on, putting her own
life in danger, for the sake of her family until the truth, or enough of it, is
revealed.
C. Dom Cobb is a skilled thief, the absolute
best in the dangerous art of extraction, stealing valuable secrets from deep
within the subconscious during the dream state, when the mind is at its most
vulnerable. Cobb's rare ability has made him a coveted(妄想的) player in this deceitful new
world of corporate espionage, but it has also made him an international
fugitive. Now Cobb is being offered a chance at redemption(赎). One last job could give him his life back but only if he can
accomplish the impossible-inception. Instead of the perfect heist, Cobb and his
team of specialists have to pull off the reverse: their task is not to steal an
idea but to plant one. But no amount of careful planning or expertise can
prepare the team for the dangerous enemy that seems to predict their every
move...
D. Reflecting on her earlier life, she
observes that for most of it she was either with a man or in the process of
leaving one, and so in the first stages of her journey she experiments with
singleness. Not with solitude, exactly, since Liz is naturally sociable and
acquires friends easily. Back home in New York she has Delia, and in Rome a
Swedish woman named Sofi introduces her to an amicable(心平气和)group of Italians, including a
fellow whose last name is Spaghetti. While he is seen mainly in group shots,
his namesake food is filmed in loving close-ups. In keeping with the theme of
self-examination, Liz’s trip is confined to countries that begin with the letter
“I”. From the ruins of Italy, to an ashram in India, and then to
Indonesia......
E. John Crowley is a worried businessman and
father of two children stricken with Pompe disease, suffering of muscle
deterioration(恶化)with an
age expectancy of nine years. With critical birthdays looming on the horizon,
Crowley decides to take a chance and pursue research scientist Robert
Stonehill, a rebellious thinker in the field of Pompe with radical ideas on
enzyme therapy. Promising money he doesn't necessarily have, Crowley talks
Stonehill into a business venture, pushing the irascible(暴躁的) scientist into research while he worries about the cash flow. With
the clock ticking, Stonehill presents challenging theories, irritating the
interest of pharmaceutical giants, who demand results practically overnight.
With Stonehill feeling the heat during this demoralizing process, Crowley
fights to maintain the face of Pompe, to keep the cure from becoming just
another compromised drug on the market.
F. Bob Ho, a Chinese spy who was loaned to
the CIA and is now retiring so he can settle down and marry his girlfriend,
Gillian, who lives next door and doesn't know he's a spy. She thinks he's a pen
importer. Around her, Bob acts like a boring country man, wears eyeglasses, and
hides his super-spy abilities. Gillian loves that he's normal and reliable, not
like her ex-husband, who ran off and left her with three kids. So Gillian has
to go out of town because her father's in the hospital, and Bob volunteers to
babysit so he can bond with the children. Meanwhile, a Russian terrorist named
Poldark has escaped CIA custody and is looking for a top-secret code that young
Ian accidentally downloaded from Bob's computer, which means Poldark and his
goons are going to show up any minute now and kill them all. Bob must save the
children -- and the world!

I've had both these 3 . As a Senior 3 student, I have to 4 many exams. Each time, I enter one, thinking “I 5 fail this time.”
But don't be surprised --- it's not 6 we don't try, or don’t do enough preparation, 7don’t take it seriously. On the contrary, it is because we put ourselves under too much 8 . It is thinking: “I must…” that makes us taste the terrible flavor of 9.

Next time a customer comes to your office, offer him a cup of coffee. And when you’re doing your holiday shopping online, make sure you’re holding a large glass of iced tea. The physical sensation(感觉) of warmth encourages emotional warmth, while a cold drink in hand prevents you from making unwise decisions—those are the practical lesson being drawn from recent research by psychologist John A. Bargh.
Psychologists have known that one person’s perception(感知) of another’s “warmth” is a powerful determiner in social relationships. Judging someone to be either “warm” or “cold” is a primary consideration, even trumping evidence that a “cold” person may be more capable. Much of this is rooted in very early childhood experiences, Bargh argues, when babies’ conceptual sense of the world around them is shaped by physical sensations, particularly warmth and coldness. Classic studies by Harry Harlow, published in 1958, showed monkeys preferred to stay close to a cloth “mother” rather than one made of wire, even when the wire “mother” carried a food bottle. Harlow’s work and later studies have led psychologists to stress the need for warm physical contact from caregivers to help young children grow into healthy adults with normal social skills.
Feelings of “warmth” and “coldness” in social judgments appear to be universal. Although no worldwide study has been done, Bargh says that describing people as “warm” or “cold” is common to many cultures, and studies have found those perceptions influence judgment in dozens of countries.
To test the relationship between physical and psychological warmth, Bargh conducted an experiment which involved 41 college students. A research assistant who was unaware of the study’s hypotheses(假设), handed the students either a hot cup of coffee, or a cold drink, to hold while the researcher filled out a short information form: The drink was then handed back. After that, the students were asked to rate the personality of “Person A” based on a particular description. Those who had briefly held the warm drink regarded Person A as warmer than those who had held the iced drink.
“We are grounded in our physical experiences even when we think abstractly,” says Bargh.
51. According to Paragraph 1, a person’s emotion may be affected by ______.
A. the visitors to his office
B. the psychology lessons he has
C. his physical feeling of coldness
D. the things he has bought online
52. The author mentions Harlow’s experiment to show that ______.
A. adults should develop social skills
B. babies need warm physical contact
C. caregivers should be healthy adults
D. monkeys have social relationships
53. In Bargh’s experiment, the students were asked to ______.
A. evaluate someone’s personality
B. write down their hypotheses
C. fill out a personal information form
D. hold coffee and cold drink alternatively
54. We can infer from the passage that ______.
A. abstract thinking does not come from physical experiences
B. feelings of warmth and coldness are studied worldwide
C. physical temperature affects how we see others
D. capable persons are often cold to others
55. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Drinking for Better Social Relationships.
B. Experiments of Personality Evaluation.
C. Developing Better Drinking Habits.
D. Physical Sensations and Emotions.
