    Sometimes people come into your life and you know at once that they were sure to be there. They serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson or help find out who you are or who you want to become. You never know who these people may be: your classmate, neighbor, teacher, long-lost friend or even a real stranger. But you know that every moment they will affect your life in some serious way.
    Sometimes things happen to you. At the time they may seem terrible, painful and unfair. But later you realize that without getting over those difficulties you would have never realized your further ability and strength. Everything happens for a reason and nothing happens by chance or with good or bad luck.
    The people you meet affect your life, and the successes and failure you experience, create who you are. Even the bad experiences can be learned from. In fact, they are probably the most poignant and important ones.
    Enjoy every day even every moment and take from it everything that you possibly can, for you may never be able to experience it again. Talk to people you have never talked to before, and really listen. You should set your sights high, hold your head up, tell yourself you are a great one and believe in yourself.
    You can make your life anything you wish. Create your own life and then go out and live it.

    Every child has written their names on the beach at some point.
    But whereas most people’s “handwriting” is washed away, one super-rich Arab sheikh(酋长) has ensure that his graffiti(胡写乱画) will last a little longer.
    Hamad Bin Hamdan Al Nahyan, 63, has scrawled his name in sand on an island he owns with letters so big that they be seen from space.
    The word “HAMAD” measures 1,000 meters high and is a staggering two miles long from the “H” to the “D” on the Al Futaisi Island.
    And rather than allow the writing to be washed away by the ocean, the letters actually form waterways that absorb the encroaching(渗入) tide. The ruler’s name is even visible on Google’s map service.
    Hamad dreamed up the idea and had his workmen work hard for weeks to craft the enormous piece of sand graffiti. It is not known how much it cost to make.
    However, the sheikh boasts a personal fortune second to the Saudi king’s.
    Hamad, also known as the “Rainbow Sheikh”, is a member of the Abu Dhabi Ruling Family.
    He is understood to have some 200 cars including seven Mercedes 500 SELs painted in different colors of the rainbow which he stores in a giant pyramid.
    The Arab sheikh had a taste for doing things on a large scale. He built the world’s largest truck—eight times the size of the Dodge Power Wagon, with four bedrooms inside the cabin.
    Hamad constructed a motor home in the shape of a giant globe which is exactly 1 millionth the size of the actual earth.

    C．Hamad is a man who is always so mean in his family
    D．Hamad is a man who boasts his fortune is second to the Saudi king’s
    小题2:In what way could Hamad make his handwriting last longer?
    A. The word “HAMAD” measures 1,000 meters wide and high.
    B The word “HAMAD” is a staggering two miles long from the “H” to the “D”.
    C. The word “HAMAD” actually forms huge waterways that absorb the encroaching tide.
    D. The word “HAMAD” cost his workmen a lot of hard work for several weeks.
    小题3:Why does Hamad have his seven Mercedes-Benz500 SELs painted in different colors?
    A．Perhaps he hoped his cars were stored in a giant pyramid safely.
    B．In some ways he could make a very strange rainbow.
    C．Maybe he just wanted to show off his wealth.
    D．He is always interested in making his cars like these.
    小题4:Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?
    A．The Rainbow Sheikh’s name can be seen from space

    As soon as you meet, or even see, a person, you form an impression of him based on his posture, gesture and facial expressions. This is why it is important to make a good first impression on the person who will be interviewing you. Within the first 60 seconds of meeting you, the interviewer will have formed an impression about what type of person you are and what kind of employee you would become, and 55% of this will be based only on your body language. Here are some tips to make you that impression a good one.
    First of all, relax. Think positive thoughts and you are more likely to come across as a positive, confident person during the interview. Dress smartly, as your appearance is one of the first things an interviewer will notice you. Stand up straight, and walk in with your shoulders back and your head up. Try to avoid slowing down as you walk into the room because this suggests fear and uncertainty. Shake hands with the interviewer firmly. You should have a positive handshake and a warm smile. Open your coat or jacket as you sit down shows that you, too, are open.
    Posture is important. You should be sitting well back in your seat. Sit up straight and lean forward slightly, but not too much. Sitting at too much of an angel expresses discomfort and distrust. Two of the most common defensive(防卫的) signals are crossing your arms and legs, so try to avoid them.
    Another important issue is eye contact. Looking someone in the eye shows confidence in yourself and trust in the other person. However, don’t overdo it, as too much eye contact or starring will make the other person uncomfortable. Use more eye contact when listening than when talking, and when you look away, look down. Looking up at the ceiling will make you seem bored and rude.
    小题1:The purpose of the first impression is to tell readers __________.
    A．what a good first impression is
    B．how to make a good first impression
    C．how long it takes to make a first impression
    D．the importance of making a good first impression
    小题2:Which of the following does the author advise you to do when you are being interviewed?
    A．Cross your arms or legs
    B．Open your coat or jacket when sitting down
    C．Go into the room more slowly than usual
    D．Avoid looking at the eyes of the interviewer directly
    小题3:If you lean forward too much, it means __________.
    A．you are very bored
    B．you are too nervous
    C．you don’t have confidence
    D．you don’t trust others
    小题4: What is the best title for the passage?
    A．How to use body language to win an interview
    B．How to answer questions in an interview
    C．How to understand body language
    D．How to deal with an interviewer

    For many years, Hawaii has been a magic name to people who like to travel. People on both sides of the Pacific Ocean, in Japan and in America, dream of seeing these beautiful islands in the middle of the ocean. Their dreams always include at least one scene of a sunset over the ocean. In the tropical(热带的) lands, the sun drops, like a ball of golden fire, into the sea, and it droops so quickly that you can almost see it move. The sun leaves behind a glow that lights the skies and shines in the quiet water.
    People often have a quiet, peaceful time ---perfect for a leisurely(悠闲的) walk along the water. This scene is not too different from the dramatic(令人神往的) beauty that greeted the first strangers to these islands centuries ago. They were Polynesian people who came from Tahiti in canoes not much bigger than small boats.
    They found the beautiful white sand beaches and the waving palm trees, but there were no giant hotels like the ones we see nowadays. The first people came to Hawaii nearly two thousand years ago, but skyscraper hotels were only built in the last 25 years. Now jet planes make it possible to fly to for a weekend from Tokyo. Wherever the people come from, they really want to see the original beauty of Hawaii. They want to see the lovely beaches and the mountain called Diamond Head which is almost hidden by the tall hotels.
    小题1:Hawaii is a name _____.
    A．given by people who like to travel
    B．attracting a lot of travelers
    C．with a magic story behind it
    D．liked by both the Japanese and Americans
    小题2:On these beautiful islands, one thing that every traveler won't miss is_____.
    A．to swim in the quiet water
    B．to see the tropical plants
    C．to see the sunset
    D．a leisurely walk along the beach
    小题3:Which of the following does not belong to "the original beauty of Hawaii"?
    A．White sand beaches.
    B．Waving palm trees.
    C．Tall hotels.
    D．The Diamond Head Mountain.
    小题4:The last paragraph suggests_______
    A．the scenery nowadays is not too different from the original beauty.
    B．it's not quite easy to see the original beauty, because some of the scenery is almost hidden by tall hotels.
    C．it is easy to see the original beauty, but only by taking jet airplanes.
    D．it is not easy to see the original beauty because things have completely changed in the last 25 years.
    小题5:The best title of the passage is _______
    A．Islands Scenery.
    B．Hawaii A Magic Name.
    C．Traveling In Hawaii.
    D．The Dramatic Beauty.

    The 2012 London Olympics had enough problems to worry about. But one more has just been added -- a communications blackout caused by solar storms.
    　　After a period of calm within the Sun, scientists have detected the signs of a flesh cycle of sunspots that could peak in 2012, just in time for the arrival of the Olympic torch in London.
    　　Now scientists believe that this peak could result in vast solar explosions that could throw billions of tons of charged matter towards the Earth, causing strong solar storms that could jam the telecommunications satellites and interact links sending five Olympic broadcast from London.
    　　"The Sun's activity has a strong influence on the Earth. The Olympics could be in the middle of the next solar maximum which could affect the functions of communications satellites," said Professor Richard Harrison, head of space physics at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Oxfordshire.
    　　At the peak of the cycle, violent outbursts called coronal mass ejections (日冕物质抛射) occur in the Sun's atmosphere, throwing out great quantities of electrically-charged matter. "A coronal mass ejection can carry a billion tons of solar material into space at over a million kilometres per hour. Such events can expose astronauts to a deadly amount, can disable satellites, cause power failures on Earth and disturb communications," Professor Harrison added. The risk is the greatest during a solar maximum when there is the greatest number of sunspots.
    　　Next week in America, NASA is scheduled to launch a satellite for monitoring solar activity called the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), which will take images of the Sun that are 10 times clearer than the most advanced televisions available.
    　　The Rutherford Appleton Laboratory helped to make the high-tech cameras that will capture images of the solar flares (太阳耀斑) and explosions as they occur.
    　　Professor Richard Harrison, the lab's director, said that the SDO should be able to provide early warning of a solar flare or explosion big enough to affect satellite communications on Earth "If we have advanced warning, we'll be able to reduce the damage. What you don't want is things switching off for a week with no idea of what's caused the problem," he said.
    小题1:The phrase "communications blackout" in paragraph 1 most probably refers to____________ during the 2012 Olympics.
    A．the extinguishing of the Olympic torch
    B．the collapse of broadcasting systems
    C．the transportation breakdown in London
    D．the destruction of weather satellites
    小题2:According to the passage, scientists are convinced that __________.
    A．the sun’s activities have little to do with the earth
    B．the London Olympic broadcasting will be possibly influenced by the 2012 peak of sunspots
    C．the 2012 Olympic Games are during the solar maximum of throwing out greatest number of sunspots
    D．solar explosion will cause strong storms on the earth
    小题3:What can be inferred about the solar activity described in the passage?
    A．The most fatal matter from the corona falls onto Earth.
    B．The solar storm peak occurs in the middle of each cycle.
    C．It takes several seconds for the charged matter to reach Earth.
    D．The number of sunspots declines after coronal mass ejections.
    小题4:According to the passage, NASA will launch a satellite to _________.
    A．take images of the solar system
    B．provide early warning of thunderstorms
    C．keep track of solar activities
    D．improve the communications on Earth
    小题5:Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?
    A．Solar Storms: An Invisible Killer
    B．Solar Storms: Earth Environment in Danger
    C．Solar Storms: Threatening the Human Race
    D．Solar Storms: Human Activities to Be Troubled

    Have you ever picked a job based on the fact that you were good at it but later found it made you feel very uncomfortable over time? When you select your career, there’s whole lot more to it than assessing your skills and matching them with a particular position. If you ignore your personality, it will hurt you long-term regardless of your skills or the job's pay. There are several areas of your personality that you need to consider to help you find a good job. Here are a few of those main areas:
    1) Do you prefer working alone or with other people?
    There are isolating (使孤立) jobs that will drive an outgoing person crazy and also interactive jobs that will make a shy person uneasy. Most people are not extremes in either direction but do have a tendency that they prefer. There are also positions that are sometimes a combination of the two, which may be best for someone in the middle who adapts easily to either situation.
    2) How do you handle change?
    Most jobs these days have some elements of change to them, but some are more than others. If you need stability in your life, you may need a job where the changes don't happen so often. Other people would be bored of the same daily routine.
    3) Do you enjoy working with computers?
    I do see this as a kind of personality characteristic. There are people who are happy to spend more than 40 hours a week on a computer, while there are others who need a lot of human interaction throughout the day. Again, these are extremes and you'll likely find a lot of positions somewhere in the middle as well.
    4) What type of work environment do you enjoy? 
    This can range from being in a large building with a lot of people you won't know immediately to a smaller setting where you'll get to know almost all the people there fairly quickly.
    5) How do you like to get paid?  
    Some people are motivated by the pay they get, while others feel too stressed to be like that. The variety of payment designs in the sales industry is a typical example for this.
    Anyway, these are a great starting point for you. I've seen it over and over again with people that they make more money over time when they do something they love. It may take you a little longer, but making a move to do what you have a passion for can change the course of your life for the better.
    小题1:This passage mainly talks about the importance of __________.

    B．Interactive jobs make people shy easily.
    C．Extreme people tend to work with others.

    How should one invest a sum of money in inflation (通货膨胀)? Left in a bank it will hardly keep its value, however high the interest rate. Only a brave man, or a very rich one, dares to buy and sell on the Stock Market. Today it seems that one of the best ways to protect your savings, and even increase your wealth is to buy beautiful objects from the past. Here I am going to offer some advice on collecting antique clocks, which I personally consider are among the most interesting of antiques.
    I sometimes wonder what a being from another planet might report back about our way of life. "The planet Earth is ruled by a mysterious creature that sits or stands in a room and makes a strange ticking sound. It has a face with twelve black marks and two hands. Men can do nothing without its permission, and it fastens its young round people's wrists so that everywhere men go they are still under its control. This creature is the real master of Earth and men are its slaves."
    Whether or not we are slaves of time today depends on our culture and personality, but it is believed that many years ago kings kept special slaves to tell the time. Certain men were very clever at measuring the time according to the beating of their own hearts. They were made to stand in a fixed place and every hour or so would shout time. So it seems that the first clocks were human beings.
    However, men quickly found more convenient and reliable ways of telling the time. They learned to use the shadows cast by the sun. They marked the hours on candles, used sand in hour- glasses, and invented water-clocks. Indeed, any serious student of antique should spend as much time as possible visiting palaces, stately homes and museums to see some of the finest examples of clocks from the past.
    Antique clocks could be very expensive, but one of the joys of collecting clocks is that it is still possible to find quite cheap ones for your own home. After all, if you are going to be ruled by time, why not invest in an antique clock and perhaps make a future profit?
    小题1:According to the passage, collecting antique clocks ________.
    A．can hardly keep the value of your savings
    B．will cost much of your savings
    C．may increase your wealth
    D．needs your bravery
    小题2:By quoting (引用) the remark of a being from another planet, the author intends to ________.
    A．suggest human beings are controlled by a clock
    B．describe why clocks can rule the planet Earth
    C．tell readers what clocks look like
    D．compare clocks to human beings
    小题3:Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a way to measure the time?
    A．Counting the beating of one's own heart.
    B．Making use of candles, sand and water.
    C．Observing shadows cast by the sun.
    D．Keeping slaves busy day and night.
    小题4:The purpose of the passage is ________.
    A．to introduce the culture of antique clocks
    B．to offer some advice on collecting antique clocks
    C．to compare different ways to make a future profit
    D．to explain convenient and reliable ways of telling time
