试题分析:考查部分倒装句和固定句式。本题中的否定词by no means绝不,放在了句首,后面的句子使用部分倒装。同时句子有固定句式:It /That/This is the...time that sb have done sth;It /That/This was the...time that sb had done sth。“这是某人第几次做某事的时候了”;结合日常生活实际,能够计算到这是第几次做某事,表明该动作已经发生,因此,要用完成时态——主句用现在时,从句用现在完成时;主句用过去时,从句用过去完成时。本句前面有is,说明使用现在完成时。句意:这绝不是你第一次向父母说谎。故D正确。

It already counts Motorola, Nokia, and Samsung as customers for its advanced batteries.

“Be nice to people.” This sounds like a platitude(老生常谈),but I’ll never forget my father’s words. I was 10, and I had been mean to someone. He said, “There is no point in being mean to anyone at any time. You never know who you’re going to meet later in life. And by the way, you don’t change anything by being mean. Usually you don’t get anywhere.”
“Remember you can do anything you want to do. Don’t let anyone say, ‘You’re not smart enough, it’s too hard, it’s a foolish idea, no one has done that before, girls don’t do that.’ ”My mom gave me that advice in 1973. And it allowed me to never worry what others were saying about my career direction.
“Always do the best job you can do at whatever you’re assigned(分派),even if you think it’s boring.” Jerry Parkinson, my boss at P&G, told me this in 1979. Here I was fresh out of Harvard Business School(HBS), and I was assigned to determine how big the hole in the Ivory shampoo bottle should be: 3/8 of an inch or 1/8 of an inch. I did research, focus groups and I would come home at night wondering how I had gone from HBS to this. But later I realized any job you’re given is an opportunity to prove yourself.
“Don’t be a credit hog. If you’re constantly in the neighborhood of good things, good things will happen to you.” Tom Tierney, who was my boss at Bain in 1981 and is now on the eBay board, told me this. It’s true that you get ahead by praising other people.
Finally, in 1998, I was in New York watching the ticker as eBay went public. My husband is a surgeon(外科医生).I called him and told him the great news. And he said, “That’s nice. But Meg, remember that it’s not brain surgery.”
