At first I was paid in candyI worked every day after school, and during the summer and on weekends and holidays from 8 a.m.to 7 p.m.My father helped me set up a bank account. By the time I was 12, my grandmother thought I had done such a good job that she promoted meto selling cosmetics(化妆品)Ideveloped the ability to look customers directly in the eye.Eventhough I was just a kid, women would ask me such things as “What color do you think I should wear?” I took a real interest in their questions and was able to translate what they wanted into makeup(化妆)ideas.
The job taught me a valuable lesson: tobe a successful salesperson, you didn’t need to be a rocket scientist—you needed to be a great listenerExpect they are no longer women purchasing cosmetics from me; instead, they are kidswho tell me which toys they would like to see designed and developed.
A.Watching my money grow was morerewarding than anything I could have bought.
B.Soon I found myself looking morebeautiful than ever before.
C.Today I still carry that lesson with me:I listen to customers.
D.My grandma’s trust taught me how tohandle responsibility
E.I ended my selling a record amount ofcosmetics..
F.Before long, she let me sit there bymyself.
G.Later I received 50 cents an hour.
【答案】F;G;A;E;C
【解析】本文讲述了作者小时候的一段经历给她带来的收获。十岁时,作者开始在店里帮助祖母,因她出色的表现,祖母后来让她帮助销售化妆品。在这段经历中,作者领悟到一个道理:要想成为一个成功的销售人员,你不一定要很聪明,但是你必须要学会倾听,做一个好的听众。(1)考查上下文的理解判断能力。从上下文语境可以判断此空应该是关于作者在店里帮助祖母的内容,而F选项中的Beforelong, she let me sit there by myself.恰好起到承接上下文的作用,故B选项正确。 (2)考查上下文的理解判断能力。前句 At first I was paid in candy.是讲作者起初得到的报酬,而G选项内容是关于后来报酬的形式,由此可以推测A选项正确。句意:开始我只是得到一些糖果,后来她给我每小时50美分。 (3)考查上下文的理解判断能力。A从前句Myfather helped me set up a bank account.可知父亲给我开了银行账户,纵观选项A项中Watching my money grow恰好能与之呼应,所以A为正确选项。 (4)考查上下文的理解判断能力。本段讲述祖母因作者的出色表现而让她帮助销售化妆品,而E选项内容恰好是讲述她的销售成果,与语境相吻合,所以选E。 (5)考查上下文的理解判断能力。从上文Thejob taught me a valuable lesson。。。you needed to be a great listener.可以推断C选项符合语境,讲作者从自身的经历中所获得感悟。故C选项正确。

According to EMTP and Stat Gear CEO Avi Goldstein, every driver should be taught how to get out of a car when it becomes submerged in water.
“Accidents and natural disasters often occur so quickly that it’s essential for drivers to be prepared,” says Goldstein. “In this case, preparation is simply knowing what should be done before it happens.”
Goldstein offers the following lifesaving tips:
1.Try to stay calm. The worst thing you can do is become overly agitated and panicked.
2. Don’t try to open the door. This will cause the car fill with water very quickly.
3. Unfasten your seat belt or cut it if it’s jammed.
4. Help free anyone else in the car.
5. Use a window punch — preferably spring-loaded. It’s nearly impossible to break a car window with your hands or feet.
6. Exit through the broken window and swim up to safety.
“Every car should be equipped with a window punch and seat belt cutter, but they are usually completely forgotten by car owners,” says Goldstein. For example, the T3 Tactical Auto Rescue Tool from Stat Gear features a 440c stainless steel serrated knife, seat belt cutter, spring-loaded window punch and LED light.
Goldstein asserts that the T3 or another similar tool should always be within arms length of a driver. “If for any reason a driver becomes pinned into his or her seat, emergency tools need to be within reach--otherwise they are useless. They will do you no good in your trunk or backseat.” The following is a quick demonstration on how to escape a sinking car with a baby on board.
(1)What is the meaning of the underlined word in paragraph 1?
A.washed
B.cleaned
C.stuck
D.discovered
(2)According to the passage, where should you put a window punch and a seat belt cutter in your car?
A.Near the driver’s seat.
B.In the trunk.
C.In the back seat.
D.Under the engine.
(3)What will be following the passage?
A.How to save a baby in a car.
B.How to help a baby escape from a car.
C.How to escape from a sinking car with a baby.
D.How to avoid sinking a car with a baby.

Dear Mandy,
I'm not doing well in my lessons at school, especial in maths. My dad says I must try hard because he wants me go to university. He thinks I'm lazy, but it's not true. I work really hard, often study late into the night! I've tried to talk to my mother, but she always said I have to work as hard like my brother does. My brother doesn't study very hard, and he always gets excellent grades. It's not fair! The only thing I like it is art. My teacher says I'm the best student she's had for year. When I told my dad,all he said was, “You mustn't waste your time in art. You must focus your mind on your lessons!” I'm feeling quite puzzling as to what to do now. Would you please help me out?
Thanks a lot!
Yours,
Lisa
