5.One day,Jack threw some papers on my desk."What's wrong?"I asked."Next time you want to change anything,ask me first,"he said,and left.I had made just one small change.But it's not that I hadn't been warned.My colleagues had said he was responsible for the resignations(辞职) of the two previous secretaries.As the weeks went by,I came to look down on Jack.After another of his episodes(片段) had left me in tears I stormed into his office."What?"he said suddenly."Jack,the way you've been treating me is wrong.I've never had anyone speak to me that way.As a professional,it's wrong for me to allow it to continue,"I said.Jack smiled nervously,"Susan,I make you a promise that I will be a friend.I will treat you as you deserve to be treated,with respect and kindness."
Jack avoided me the rest of the week,and never questioned my work again.I brought cookies to the office one day and left some on his desk.Another day I left a note:"Hope your day is going great."Over the next few weeks,there were no more Jack episodes.One year later
I discovered I had breast cancer,and was scared.The statistics were not great for my long-term survival.
One day,however,Jack visited me in the hospital and silently handed me a bundle with several bulbs inside."Tulips(郁金香),"he said.I smiled,not understanding."If you plant them when you get home,they'll come up next spring.I think you will be there to see them when they come up.Next spring you will see the colors I picked out for you."Tears clouded my eyes and he left.I have seen those red and white striped(有条纹的) tulips push through the soil every spring for over ten years now.This past September the doctor declared me cured.At a moment when I was praying for just the right word,a man with very few words said all the right things.After all,that's what friends do.

分析 本文讲述了我和上司杰克的故事.一开始他因为我改了他的东西而对我发火,但是后来我们成为了朋友并且互相鼓励.
解答 41.D.细节理解题.根据第一段中的"Jack threw some papers on my desk."及"Next time you want to change anything,ask me first"可知,杰克生气的原因是苏珊未经他允许修改了一些东西.因此选择D项.
42.D.细节理解题.根据第二段中的"the way you've been treating me is wrong.I've never had anyone speak to me that way"及"I will treat you as you deserve to be treated,with respect and kindness."可知,苏珊是想告诉杰克应尊重别人,对人友善.故选D.
43.C.推理判断题.根据第二段中苏珊的做法和杰克对她的保证,以及第三段中苏珊留饼干给杰克并写祝福字条的举动可以推知,苏珊自信而友善.故选C.
44.A.理解判断题.由倒数第二段Jack visited me in the hospital and silently handed me a bundle with several bulbs inside,可知,在苏珊生病时,杰克去看望她,可知杰克是关心雇员的,故选A.
45.B.推理判断题.由最后一段Tears clouded my eyes and he left.I have seen those red and white striped(有条纹的) tulips push through the soil every spring for over ten years now,可知,虽然杰克的话不多,却体现出他对苏珊的深切关心,这胜过千言万语.因此选择B项.
