Seeing a volcano erupt is a wonderful experience, and you can really feel the beat by climbing to the summit(山顶) of Pacaya for a close-up view. There are guided tours every day up this highly active volcano from Antigua, giving travelers a chance to see Mother Nature at her most powerful.
Pacaya is an easy drive from Antigua, a beautiful city with many colorful houses along its old streets that are turned into art-works during its Holy Week festival. No matter when you come to Antigua, you won’t miss the Pacaya-tour companies.
But climbing Pacaya is no easy job: it is 2560 metres high, and reaching the summit takes two to three hours of seemingly one-step-forward and two-step-back movements. As you climb, you hear the dull sounds of eruptions high above steaming. Hot remains from recent eruptions begin to line the path as you are near the active summit; the McKenney Cone(火山锥).
Many tours are timed so when you arrive at the cone of the volcano there is plenty of time for sunset and the full contrast between the erupting red lava and the darkening sky. On a good day the view from the summit is extremely exciting. The active mouth boils, sending red lava over its sides, and once in a while shoots hot streams up to 100 metres into the air. There is a strong bad smell in the air even if you take care to be upwind of the cone. As evening turns deeper into the night, the burning lava quietly falls down the side of the volcano. For you, too, it is time to get down .
小题1:What is the main purpose of this passage?
A.To attract tourists to Pacaya.
B.To describe the beauty of Pacaya.
C.To introduce guided tours to Pacaya.
D.To explain the power of nature at Pacaya.
小题2:Antigua is a city      .
A.where people can have a close-up view of the volcano
B.where the daring Pacaya tour starts
C.that lies on the summit of Pacaya
D.that is famous for its tour companies
小题3:Climbing to the McKenney Cone, people will    .
A.walk down to the active summit
B.hear the continuous loud screams from above
C.make greater efforts than to other summits
D.see a path lined with remains of earlier eruptions
小题4:Many tours are timed for people to      .
A.get down the mountain in time when night falls
B.avoid the smell from the upwind direction of the cone
C.enjoy the fantastic eruption against the darkening sky
D.appreciate the scenery of the 2560-metre-high mountain
小题5:The short passage probably comes from___________.
A.a travel journalB.a popular science magazine

Dear Ana,
In your last letter, you told me that your boss Stephanie was probably looking for a new job and you didn’t know how to tell her that you wanted to take her position if she left. Well, I’d like to tell you that there is no polite way to talk about this situation with your boss. After all, you are not one-hundred-percent sure that she is actually job-hunting. Even if you know for sure that she is, you can’t, because it’s not your business. Still, there are a couple of things that you can do to put yourself in a good position in case your boss does ride out of Dodge in the near future.
First, you can have a general conversation with her about your career plans. Say something like, “You’ve always been supportive of me, Stephanie, and I’d love you to give me some advice on my professional development.” This will let your boss know that you’re ready for a new challenge. Ask her to give you feedback about how she thinks you can improve as a future leader.
Second, ask for your manager’s approval (同意) to talk with the training department about any program the company offers. There may or may not be any training, but making the request will still communicate your desire to get into a people-management role.
Third, you could say to your boss, “If there is anything you need my help with, I’d love it if you let me know. I am very interested in supporting you with anything you want to hand off.”
Taking those three steps will make it clear to Stephanie that you’re ready to be her No. 2.
Best regards,
Liz
小题1:The underlined part “ride out of Dodge” in the first paragraph probably means “______”.
A.get fired by the boss B.go to take a vacation
C.change to a new jobD.get a higher position
小题2:We can infer that Ana’s purpose for writing to Liz was to              .
A.tell Liz that her boss is looking for a new job
B.ask Liz if she has the ability to take her boss’s position
C.ask Liz for advice on how to find a much better job
D.seek advice on how to make her boss know she wants her position
小题3:Which of the following didn’t Liz ask Ana to do?
A.To let her manager know her desire for training.
B.To ask her boss if she needs any help from her.
C.To ask her boss for advice on her career plans.
D.To find out who is also trying to get that position.
小题4:We can learn from Liz’s reply that          .
A.Ana has never talked about her career plans before
B.Ana is very sad to see her boss go as she has helped her a lot
C.Ana’s boss Stephanie may not be looking for a new job
D.there are some training courses in Ana’s company now
小题5:According to Liz, if your boss is leaving for another job, you can              .
A.ask your manager to give the position to you
B.write to let him know you want his position
C.let him know you want his position indirectly
D.write a letter to your best friend for advice

People do not analyze every problem they meet.Sometimes they try to remember a solution from the last time they had a   36  problem.They often accept the opinions or ideas of other people.Other times they begin to act without thinking; they try to find a solution by trial and error.  37  , when all of these methods fail, the person with a problem has to start analyzing.There are six   38  in analyzing a problem.
First the person must recognize that there is a problem.For example, Sam's bicycle is broken, and he cannot ride it to class as he usually does.Sam must   39  that there is a problem with his bicycle.

Now the person must look for   42  that will make the problem clearer and lead to 43  solutions.For example, suppose Sam decides that his bike does not work because there is something wrong with the brakes.  44  , he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about brakes,   45  his friends at the bike shop, or look at his brakes carefully.
After   46   the problem, the person should have   47  suggestions for a possible solution.Take Sam as an example   48  , his suggestions might be: tighten or loosen the brakes; buy new brakes and change the old ones.
In the end, one   49   seems to be the solution to the problem.Sometimes the   50 idea comes quite   51  because the thinker suddenly sees something new or sees something in a   52  way.Sam, for example, suddenly sees there is a piece of chewing gum(口香糖)stuck to a brake.He   53  hits on the solution to his problem: he must   54  the brake.
Finally the solution is   55  .Sam does it and finds his bicycle works perfectly.In short, he has solved the problem.

Life affects friendships. As we grow, marry, fight in wars, move across the country or change jobs, old friendships fall away and new ones form. As long as we live, the things around us change, and as long as things change, friendships are affected.

“Time is a problem for children,” states a news report for a new Swiss watch. Children in some countries “learn time slowly” because “they don’t wear watches” and “parents don’t really know how to teach them time.” The children grow up with this handicap and become adults-and then can’t get to work on time. Is there an answer to this problem? Of course-it’s the Flick Flak, made by a famous Swiss watch company.
The Flick Flak is being marketed as something teaching watch for children aged 4 to 10. The watch itself does not teach children how to tell time, of course; it merely “takes their imagination” by presenting the “hour” hand as a beautiful red girl named Flak and the “minute” hand as a tall blue boy named Flick. Flick points to related “blue” minutes on the dial, while Flak points to “red” hour numbers. The characters and colors combined with parental help, are supposed to teach young children how to tell time.
The watch comes equipped with a standard battery and a nylon band (尼龙表带). Peter Lipkin, the United States sales manager for the Flick Flak, calls it “childproof: if it gets dirty you can throw the whole watch in the washing machine.” The product is being sold in select department stores in Europe, Asia and the United States for a suggested price of $25. Parents who buy the watch may discover that it is one thing to tell time; it’s quite another for them to be on time.
小题1:From the news report we know that ______.
A.parents are patient when teaching children time
B.parents have little idea of how to teach children time
C.children are likely to learn time quickly
D.children enjoy wearing the Flick Flak watch
小题2:The author doesn’t seem to believe ______.
A.children will be on time if they have not learnt how to tell time
B.a Flick Flak can help parents teach their children how to tell time
C.the Flick Flak can take children’s imagination
D.children usually have trouble telling time if they don’t wear watches
小题3:The underlined word handicap (Para. 1) means ______.
A.displeasureB.discouragementC.disappointmentD.disadvantage
小题4:The United State sales manager calls the new watch “childproof” because ______.
A.it is designed to teach children to be on time
B.it proves to be effective in teaching children time
C.it is made so as not to be easily damaged by children
D.it is the children’s favorite watch
