My work keeps me in Hong Kong most of the year，but I do try to get 1 for a month in 2 —usually July．Now as you probably know that's the main 3 season in Europe，the favourite places for holiday and the famous cities are usually very 4 ．But I'm not seeking the sun—I get plenty of 5 in Hong Kong—and I'm certainly not seeking the 6 ！So when I go on holiday I buy a Train Pass（a sort of train ticket）that 7 me first class travel on most of the 8 of Western Europe．First class compartments（车厢）are 9 crowded and they are very comfortable．If you're going on an overnight 10 you can take a sleeping train for some extra money ．There are usually dining cars in the train．
I find that 11 travel is restful and 12 ．There's always something to see．I particularly enjoy 13 through Switzerland and Italy．You can get a very good 14 of what a country is like from a train；you don't go too fast and you stop quite often． 15 rail travel is very safe and I am never sick on a train 16 I am on a ship！Then there are always people to 17 if you feel like a chat．
The 18 that I seldom travel by plane is quite simple：as train stations are usually built in the city centre，I don't have to 19 transport；transport can be a problem when arriving by 20 ．

3．A。由逗号后面的the favourite placesfor holiday可知，本题应选holiday。4．D。因为是旅游旺季，所以人多为患。
5．C。由上文But I'm not seeking（寻求）the sun可知，香港有充足的阳光，度假时自然就不再寻求阳光了。

10．B。根据词义，本题应选journey，指“旅行”。

16．C。as引导方式状语从句，意为“像，如同”。
17．A。talk to sb．是固定词组，意为“与某人交谈”，“to talk to”是动词不定式作定语，与所修饰的名词people有逻辑上的动宾关系，所以talk后面的to不能省略。
18．C。冒号后面讲述的都是作者很少乘飞机旅行的理由，故本题选C。
19．A。根据上文，由于火车站通常建在市中心，所以作者不必为交通问题担忧。
20．D上文提到坐火车旅行比乘飞机旅行具有诸多好处，根据语义，此处指“乘飞机”。

DU Lala is the hottest career coach in the country. The fictional character in the acclaimed novel Du La La’s Promotion shows others how to take the high road to success in a multinational company. But does her story describe a real or distorted picture of work life? The answer is as complicated as office life itself.
Over one million copies of the book have been sold since its release in 2007. Go Lala Go!, a movie adaptation of the novel set to hit cinemas next weekend, has stirred up even more interest in the story. The film stars Xu Jinglei and Stanley Huang, but fans seem to be more excited about seeing the story unfold on the big screen.
According to a recent sina.com survey, 45 percent of the 6,810 netizens polled said they have drawn career pointers from the novel. Other office novels, such as In and Out of the Loop, Win and Lose and Drowning and Floating, seem to have been received with similar interest.
“These books show me the life of white collars, and they teach me career rules and jargon that are not offered in class,” said Zhang Shanshan, a 22-year-old senior at Beijing Forestry University. Zhang says the competition, humor and office gossip in the book intrigued her. “I can’t wait to embark on my own career,” she said.
The popularity of office novels does not surprise Chen Ning, a senior career consultant at Zhaopin.com. “Novels about office fights and struggles satisfy the psychological demands of an ordinary office worker,” Chen said. “The leading characters face great pressure, fierce competition and an uncertain future. This is what really happens in many readers’ daily life.”
Li Ke, the author of Du Lala’s Promotion, has been stressing the significance of her fiction. “I want to provide real and useful common sense, knowledge and experience to office workers,” Li told the Qianjiang Evening News last year.
Recent graduates say they have found the basic work principles highlighted in the novel to be instructive. “If these books had been published five years earlier, I might have avoided some problems,” said Xu Jun, an HR manager at Guangqi Honda Automobile Company. “They often discuss basic office principles, which are relevant for staff working under the middle management level. They also help readers to see the importance of basic problem solving and organizational skills.”
But some veteran employees warn that the novels are not always realistic. They say this is especially true of the characters. “The protagonists appear to be unbeatable,” said Hou Zhendong, an HR manager at General Electric. “Du Lala’s team leader quit in an irresponsible way; her boss is inept; and the staff around her is either stupid or overly-sophisticated. Du stands out in emergencies and makes all the right decisions. The truth is, real-life colleagues are not that polarized（截然对立）,” Hou said. “You seldom get to negotiate your salary with a big boss. And, most of the time, you make wrong decisions far more than you make correct ones.”
The career principles in the books are also of limited use. “Most of the stories happen in Fortune 500 companies with a long history. Their cultures are well-established, and their rules are scientific,” Hou said. “But if you work for a small foreign company, or a local enterprise, some principles are useless.”
Liu Rui, a project manager at IBM, suggests fans of these books focus on the little bits of wisdom they provide. “The novels give rookies（新手） some inspiration,” he said. “They emphasize the importance of observation, practice and self-examination. These tips are precious and universally true.”
【小题1】Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
| A．Recent graduates can learn a lot of useful career principles from the novel. |
| B．The best novel shows readers how to be promoted in various companies. |
| C．The book Go Lala Go! Sells very well. |
| D．The movie adaptation of the novel will be a massive hit at the box-office in China. |
| A．Du Lala’s story reflects the true office life. |
| B．Go Lala Go! Enjoys more popularity than other office novels, such as In and Out of the Loop, Win and Lose and Drowning and Floating. |
| C．Some people argue that the story is a bit polarized. |
| D．Both rookies and veteran employees are fond of Go Lala Go!. |
| A．The Life of White Collars |
| B．The Hottest Career Coach |
