【题目】阅读短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

Most Americans take pride in inviting guests with open arms. What should you do if an American friend has invited you to visit his family? You've never been to an American home before, and you're not sure what to do. Should you take a gift? What time should you arrive or leave? How long should you stay? Take it easy. I’ll tell you all about it.

The question of whether or not to bring a gift often worries guests. Giving your host a gift is not just a social custom in some cultures—it's expected. But in American culture, a guest does not have to bring a gift. Of course, some people do bring a small gift for their host. Proper gifts might usually be flowers, candy or—if the family has small children—toys. If you choose not to bring a gift, don't worry. No one will even notice.

Plan to arrive on time, or call to tell your host that you will be late. When you've finished the meal, the host may invite everyone to move to the living room for dessert with tea or coffee. After an hour or so, it's about time to head for the door.

Americans usually like to invite guests ahead of time. Only very close friends visit the host unexpectedly without being invited. This is especially true if the guests want to stay for a few days. Here's one golden rule for house guests: short stays are best. Even relatives don’t usually stay for several weeks at a time. Your host family will appreciate our consideration (体贴), and they may even invite you back!

【题目】Alibaba, Bank of China and Huawei—these are the dream employers for Chinese students, according to a new survey.

“The survey of more than 55,000 students, conducted by the research firm Universum, has found that roughly a quarter want to work for an international company, while only 9% want to work for a start-up. Five percent want to start their own business.”

The students said that work-1ife balance was the most important career goal, followed by job stability. When it comes to desirable companies, Bank of China has been named the top choice by business students for seven consecutive years, and the gigantic state-owned firm shows no signs of giving up its lead.

William Wu, the China country manager for Universum, said that banking remains an attractive industry for young Chinese. “China’s government is now emphasizing the revolution of the finance industry, which leaves the younger generation with the impression that although banking is a traditional industry, there are still a lot of development opportunities.” Wu said.

E-commerce giant Alibaba (BABA, Tech30) improved six places from 2014, ranking second among business students. Alibaba’s rise shouldn’t come as much of a surprise—the company held a record-breaking $25 billion IPO in September.

Among engineering students, Alibaba was once again a bridesmaid. Instead, Huawei—a telecoms infrastructure firm that now makes consumer products-took the top spot.

“Both of these companies are pioneers in terms of local companies going international.” said Wu. “It shows that… an international development strategy has a positive influence among Chinese young talents.” Tech companies ruled the rankings for humanities students, with Alibaba—which was ninth in 2014 landing at the top. Last year, Apple was the Number l choice of Chinese students.

1What’s the percentage of the surveyed students who want to join a company set up recently?

A. Five percent.

B. Twenty-five percent.

C. Nine percent.

D. Twenty percent.

2What is the second most important career goal for the students?

A. Work-life balance.

B. Job stability.

C. Alibaba.

D. Their own business.

3In William Wu’s viewpoint, a native company that _______ will attract graduates.

A. is rooted only in China

B. makes consumer products

C. goes international

D. just aims at the foreign market

4What does the passage want to tell us mainly?

A. What companies students want to work for.

B. Why students have to go to university.

C. How a company can develop well.

D. Where students’ success lies in.

Everyone has to make choices in his life. I made one who I will never regret. When I entered senior high school, I wanted to join in the school basketball team. So my parents didn’t agree, say it would get in the way of my studies. So I tried to persuade him and promise I’d make a balance between them. Finally they agreed. Late, I did that I had promised. I became captain of team and also one of the top student of my class. I learn from this experience that once you have made a choice, stick to it and work hard at it, and then you’ll never regret it.
