  Chair Miller and his crew picked up a new B-24 at California’s March Field on Christmas Eve, 1943, and prepared to fly to England.But they decided to have“one more hamburger”before going out for the distant land of fish and chips.

  As the airmen sat in a local restaurant, a beautiful young waitress approached.“I understand you’re going to England,”she said to Miller.Then she told him that her fiancé, an aviation gunner like Miller, was stationed there.

  The woman said she was waiting for him to provide an address so she could send him a picture of herself.“You might run into him,”she told Miller hopefully.“Would you take it?”

  Miller knew it was unlikely he’d ever see her fiancé.But he didn’t want to disappoint the woman.He took the picture and placed it in his wallet.Later he realized he hadn’t even asked the man’s name.Then he was on to Europe and the war.

  On August 9,1944, Miller’s plane was shot down, and he was forced to parachute to an island off the coast of Holland.Captured by the Nazis, he spent the next nine months as a prisoner of war.

  It was on Christmas Eve that someone told him a 19-year-old American prisoner down the hall was badly depressed and possibly suicidal(有自杀倾向).Miller decided to pay the man a visit.

  To break the ice, he mentioned the POW band he’s started, with the help of the Red Gross.The young man, he learned, played the saxophone.The two began to exchange details about their families.Was he married, the kid asked.“Yeah, since 1938,”responded Miller.

  “Have you got her picture?”the soldier asked.So Miller reached for his wallet, and pulled out a photograph of his wife.

  “She’s beautiful!”the young man responded.Then he noticed that a second picture had fallen out, and an expression of wonder crossed his face.“Where did you get that?”Miller told the story of the waitress at the California hamburger stand.

  “That’s my fiancée,”the surprised man said.Miller kept his promise to the beautiful girl back home and turned the picture over to its rightful owner.

阅读下面的短文,然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

When I was growing up, I had an old neighbor named Dr. Gibbs.He didn’t look like any doctor I’d ever known. When Dr. Gibbs wasn’t saving lives, he was planting trees.

The good doctor had some interesting theories concerning planting trees.He believed in “No pains, no gains”.He never watered his new trees, which was beyond many people.Once I asked why.He answered that watering plants spoiled them, and that if you water them, each following tree generation will grow weaker and weaker.So you have to make things tough for them.He talked about how watering trees made for shallow roots, and how trees that weren’t watered had to grow deep roots in search of water.I took him to mean that deep roots were to be treasured.

So he never watered his trees. He’d plant an oak(橡树) and, instead of watering it every morning, he’d beat it with a rolled-up newspaper. Smack! Slap! Pow! I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the tree’s attention.

Dr. Gibbs passed away a couple of years after I left home. Every now and again, I walked by his house and looked at the trees that I’d watched him plant some twenty-five years ago. They’re extremely tall, big and strong now. Those trees wake up in the morning and beat their chests and drink their coffee black.

科目:高中英语 来源:2011年浙江普通高等学校招生全国统一考试英语试题 题型:信息匹配

请从以下选项(A、B、C、 D、E 和 F)中选出符合各段意思的小标题,并在答题纸上将相应选项的标号涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。

A. Leadership

B. Conflict Solving

C. Open Communication

D. Respect to All Team Members

E. Measuring Progress against Goals

F. Common Goals with Challenging Target

Team Building Means More than Throwing a Few People Together

     “Teamworking” is found everywhere within just about every organization .you can’t get away   from “teams” that are supposed to be able to create something that is greater than the sum of its  parts. Or so the theory goes.

      There are five measures that need to be taken before you can get the most  out of a team:

 1­­­_________

      There must be a clear reason for the team to exist. And all the members should realized the value and significance of what they are going to do. What they are hoping to achieve should be something achievable but at the same time tough and inspiring enough to attract the members and keep their motivation alive. What is more ,they should also be well prepared for the possible difficulties they may come across in the process.

2._________

      Team members must be able to express their opinions freely without fear of being criticized  and  they must have the feeling that their suggestions will be taken seriously . This is an important point because the team may need to resolve some complex or thorny issues. For example ,it may discuss a sensitive topic .Should they keep their conclusion within the team or share it with other employees. This is an issue in itself that all the members should agree on frank discussion is required.

3._____________ D. Respect to All Team Members

It is easy to think that a junior team member may have less to contribute than more experienced ones. This is not only demoralizing or discouraging, it also makes no sense ---people that have nothing to contribute should not have been selected for the team in the first place. Since they have become members of your team, you need to make sure that each of them has an opportunity to add his or her thoughts to discussions.

4.____________

Disagreements are natural and, in fact debate and discussion should be encouraged. A team made up only of "yes men" can make disastrous decisions that few people honestly agreed with in the first place. Consequently, there should be rules on how lengthy disagreements should be handled. For example, team meetings may not be the most appropriate place for a discussion that involves only two people, so "under-the-table" method may be effective.

5.___________ A. Leadership

   Most high-performing teams are well organized. A good organizer should be able to play to individuals' strengths and help them overcome their weaknesses. It should be someone who can act  as a promoter and a constant reminder of what the team needs to achieve. He must ,above all, be skilled in sharing responsibility and setting tasks to others coaching them to achieve tasks, and providing constructive feedback on how the tasks went.

   Team building isn't as simple as just throwing a few people together. It requires, much more, but motivating people is most essential. Successful team working is not marked by how much progress the team makes toward its goals, but by how confidently each of its members completes his or her assigned tasks with a sense of achievement and pride.

1.  What did the writer think after the kite-flying?

A. The boys must have had more fun than the girls.

B. They should have finished their work before playing

C. Her parents should spend more time with them

D. All the others must have forgotten that day

2.  Why did the writer finally agree to take her little girl for an outing?

A. She suddenly remembered her duty as a mother.

B. She was reminded of the day they flew kites.

C .She had finished her work in the kitchen

D. She thought it was a great day to play outside

3.The youngest Patrick Boy is mentioned to show that _____

    A. the writer was not alone in treasuring her fond memories.

    B. his experience in POW camp threw a shadow over his life

    C. childhood friendship means so much to the writer

    D .people like him really changed a lot after the war
