【题目】 Going to work every day can be a very stressful and frustrating situation when you're dealing with a difficult co-worker.1 Learn how to effectively handle a problem-causing co-worker in order to maintain your sanity and your work productivity.

2 People often act out in order to receive attention from others. A co-worker with a bad attitude may feel like no one ever listens to her. Listen intently to what your co-worker says, and make a point to show her that you are concentrating on what she is saying with occasional nods and questions.

Change your scenery for a few minutes. Work days can be tiring and long. Sometimes, all you might need is a slight, temporary change in scenery.3 Either go for a five-minute outdoor walk or sit in the company lounge by yourself with a hot cup of coffee. Refresh yourself so you may be able to come back to your Co-worker with a better state of mind.

Communicate with your co-worker. Understand that if you do not voice your concerns to your co-worker, it is unlikely that she will ever change. After all, she may not even know that a problem exists. If you are unable to confront your co-worker, just politely ask her to have a chat, openly talking to her about what is bothering you. Ask her if you do anything to bother her, as well.4

Treat your co-worker as nicely as possible. When someone is treating you kindly, it can become significantly more difficult to treat her badly in return.5 She may even feel guilty about her mistreatment of you and change her behavior.

A.Follow her ideas if possible.

B.Lend an ear to your co-worker.

C.Speak to your co-worker in a kind way.

D.Find out the good things in your co-worker.

E.Take quick "time outs" every couple of hours.

F.Without proper action, things might tum into a mess.

G.Ty to come up with a solution that both of you can handle.

【题目】阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。

During the winter of 1986 I was working in construction near OaklandCalifornia. It is not unusual for construction workers’hands to become very painful during winter after working with concretewet woodmudetc. My hands were no exception that year. They were actually cracking(龟裂)open at the joints in the fingers and thumbs. So I was always conplaining about my hurting hands. I often wondered when my cracked hands would not be painful.

Stopping work because of hurting hands is simply not possible in the construction industry. You grit your teeth(咬紧牙关)keep working and finish the job—but do further damage to your hands in the process. The only break occurs on weekends. My co-workers and I used to comfort each other almost every day. The pain is similar to that of“paper cuts”occurring many times an hour.

One morning I left for work at 500 a. m. to pour concrete and pulled into a gas station to fuel up. As I got out of my truckI noticed a newspaper delivery van(有篷货车)and the driver struggling with bales(大捆)of daily newspapers. I took a second look and noticed that the man was born with arms that ended halfway down each forearm. I was amazed to see him doing a job that would otherwise require a very physically gifted person. Stillhe was somewhat struggling with the large bales because his arms simply weren’t long enough to carry these bales. Instead he had to“pinch”the bales and lift them with his short and thick arms. Then I found he had difficulty tying his shoes although he had tried many times. I wondered how I could give him some help.

Paragraph 1

On my way to the convenience store at the stationI stopped

Paragraph 2

I came to a full stop and looked back at him as he was getting into his van.

The first time I heard the expression "Know yourself" by Socrates, I didn't realize its meaning until I go to university. I started my university life unwillingly, because I didn't want to leave my parents and university of engineering was not my dream school, too. However, I changed my mind complete after a semester. My schoolmates are from different place, some of which are really outstanding. This makes me realized there is always someone much more better capable. Since then, to know myself has become an importance part of my life. Only by knowing who I am or where I am can I really follow the right path.

【题目】 Professor Ashok Goel of Georgia Tech developed an artificially intelligent teaching assistant to help handle the enormous number of student questions in the online class, Knowledge-Based Artificial Intelligence. Professor Goel already had eight teaching assistants, but that wasn’t enough to deal with the overwhelming number of daily questions from students.

Many students drop out of online courses because of the lack of teaching support. When students feel ignored or confused and reach out with questions that go unanswered, their motivation to continue begins to taper off. Professor Goel decided to do something to improve this situation and his solution was to create a virtual assistant named Jill Watson.

Goel and his team developed several versions of Jill Watson before releasing her to the online forums. At first, the virtual assistant wasn’t too great. But Goel and his team sourced the online discussion forum to find all the 40,000 questions that had ever been asked since the class was launched. Then they began to feed Jill with the questions and answers. After some adjustments and sufficient time, Jill was able to answer the students’ questions correctly 97% of the time. The virtual assistant became so advanced and realistic that the students didn’t know she was a computer. The students, who were studying artificial intelligence, were interacting with the virtual assistant and couldn’t tell it apart from a real human being. Goel didn’t inform them about Jill’s true identity until April 26. The students were actually very positive about the experience.

The goal of Professor Goel’s virtual assistant next year is to take over answering 40% of all the questions posed by students on the online forum. Professor Goel has a much rosier outlook on the future of artificial intelligence.

1What problem did Professor Goel meet with?

A.Students’ questions were too many to deal with.

B.Teaching assistants were not professional at all.

C.Many students were lack of interest in his class.

D.He felt confused about how to teach online.

2Which of the following best explains the underlined phrase in Paragraph 2?

A.grow dramaticallyB.increase sharply

C.decrease graduallyD.decline unreasonably

3What do we learn about Jill Watson?

A.She could answer all questions without mistakes.

B.She turned out to be a great success.

C.Her performance was remarkable all the way.

D.Her true identity was still a secret to students.

4What’s the main idea of the text?

A.A robot gives an online course.

B.Virtual assistant is getting popular in school.

C.Robots will replace humans in online classes.

D.One Georgia Tech’s teaching assistant isn’t human.
