题目列表(包括答案和解析)
I once had my Chinese MBA students brainstorming on “two-hour business plans”. I separated them into six groups and gave them an example: a restaurant chain. The more original their idea, the better, I said. Finally, five of the six groups presented plans for restaurant chains. The sixth proposed a catering（饮食）service. Though I admitted the time limit had been difficult, I expressed my disappointment.
My students were middle managers, financial analysts and financiers from state owned enterprises and global companies. They were not without talent or opinions, but they had been shaped by an educational system that rarely stressed or rewarded critical thinking or inventiveness. The scene I just described came in different forms during my two years’ teaching at the school. Papers were often copied from the Web and the Harvard Business Review. Case study debates were written up and just memorized. Students frequently said that copying is a superior business strategy, better than inventing and creating.
In China, every product you can imagine has been made and sold. But so few well developed marketing and management minds have been raised that it will be a long time before most people in the world can name a Chinese brand.
With this problem in mind, partnerships with institutions like Yale and MIT have been established. And then there’s the “thousand talent scheme”: this new government program is intended to improve technological modernization by attracting top foreign trained scientists to the mainland with big money. But there are worries about China’s research environment. It’s hardly known for producing independent thinking and openness, and even big salary offers may not be attractive enough to overcome this.
At last, for China, becoming a major world creator is not just about setting up partnerships with top Western universities. Nor is it about gathering a group of well-educated people and telling them to think creatively. It’s about establishing a rich learning environment for young minds. It’s not that simple.
1.Why does the author feel disappointed at his students?
A．Because there is one group presenting a catering service.
B．Because the six groups made projects for restaurant chains.
C．Because all the students copied a case for the difficult topic.
D．Because the students’ ideas were lacking in creativeness.
2.We can infer from the passage that ________.
A．China can make and sell any product all over the world
B．high pay may not solve the problem of China’s research environment
C．cooperation with institutions has been set up to make a Chinese brand
D．the new government program is aimed at encouraging imagination
3.Which is the best title of the passage?

第一节 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Diane Arbus is known for creating intense black and white photographs of very unusual people. She used a special camera that produced square shaped images. One art expert said Diane Arbus turned photography inside out. Instead of looking at her subjects, she made them look at her.
Diane Arbus was born in 1923 to a wealthy family in New York City. After finishing high school at the age of 18, Diane married Allan Arbus. Mr. Arbus worked in the advertising department of her father’s store.
It was Mr. Arbus who gave Diane her first camera. Diane soon decided to take a class with the famous photographer Berenice Abbott. The Arbuses eventually started taking photographs of clothing. These images were used as advertisements for Diane’s father’s store. After the birth of their daughter, Doon, the Arbuses started a business together. Their purpose was to photograph clothing fashions. Diane Arbus was the stylist. She would prepare the hair and faces of the fashion models who wore the clothing being photographed. Allan Arbus took the pictures.
The couple soon had jobs from important fashion magazines such as “Vogue” and “Harper’s Bazaar”. Their work was very successful during the 1950s. They became part of a group of artists that were helping to redefine visual culture. They were breaking with past traditions to create a new look for a new decade, the sixties.
But Diane was not satisfied with her secondary role. She wanted a more active part in making photographs. She wanted to explore her own artistic expression and freedom. To do this, she stopped working with her husband. Then she started taking photography classes at the New School in New York City.
Arbus’ teacher, Lisette Model, influenced her in many ways. She showed Diane how to use a camera like an expert. She also taught Diane to use her art to face her doubts and fears. Miss Model once said that Diane soon started “not listening to me but suddenly listening to herself.”
41. Diane Arbus got her first camera ______.
A. from her father B. from her husband
C. in a shop D. in the advertising department
42. Why did the Arbuses start a business together?
A. To film clothing fashions. B. To make their daughter happy.

43. The Arbuses ______ in the 1950s according to the passage.
A. were in charge of “Vogue” B. earned more than other artists
C. were recognized as great artists D. were proud of their achievements
44. We can learn from the last two paragraphs that ______.
A. Diane was hard to dealt with

Several weeks ago, my friend advised us to sell some of our things which we will not use any more. I thought it was a good chance to 46 my 7-year-old son’s room and 47 some toys that were no longer suitable for him to play with. We 48 that all the money we got from selling the toys would be his money.
The night before the 49 , we loaded up the truck with toys and a little bike that was too 50 for him. In the yard he 51 the bike for the last time and then happily put it onto the truck. This little bike had at least two previous owners as far as we 52 . It wasn’t in the best 53 and was certainly not new, but the tires were 54 good.
We put a price of $10 on it, but it didn’t sell. So, after the sale was 55 , my friend put it on the sidewalk with a sign that 56 “FREE BIKE”. Within five minutes her doorbell rang. A little boy was 57 there. In poor English he asked whether the bike was 58 free. She said yes and that he could have it for 59 . He smiled, got on the bike and rode away.
Later that evening when I told my son how much money he had made at the sale, he was very 60 , shouting happily. He asked about a few of his things, wondering 61 they had been sold. When he asked about the bike, I told him about the little boy and that made him 62 . He was much happier than when I told him how much he had 63 . He was so happy to 64 that someone else would make good 65 of that little bike!
