3.I recently heard a story from Stephen Glenn about a famous research scientist.He had made several very important medical(36)B.Once,he was being interviewed by a newspaper journalist who asked why he was able to be so much more creative than the(37)D person.What set him so far apart from others?
He responded that,in his opinion,it all came from a(n)(38)A with his mother that occurred when he was about two years old.He had been trying to(39)C a bottle of milk from the refrigerator when he lost his grip on the slippery bottle and it fell,(40)A its contents all over the kitchen floor-a veritable sea of milk!
When his mother came into the kitchen,instead of(41)B at him,giving him a lecture or punishing him,she said,"Robert,what a great and wonderful(42)B you have made!I have rarely seen such a huge puddle of milk.Well,the(43)D has already been done.Would you like to get down and play in the milk for a few minutes(44)D we clean it up?"

The launch of Apple's iPhone 4s tempted thousands of buyers to its two outlets in Beijing on the cold winter night of Jan 12th.But the size of the crowds brought a sudden (41)G of sales of the iPhone 4s on the morning of Jan 13th and one store in Beijing didn't open at all,because the growing crowd of eager Apple followers created safety (42)F.
This is not the first time Apple's marketing strategy(策略) has caused such trouble among the buying public,for similar trouble (43)A  in January last year when the first release launch of the iPhone 4was made.
Apple's clever marketing has made the company's products (44)Jlifestyle accessories(附件) for many,but this strategy will (45)H result in mass rushes and disturbances and if it continues with this marketing strategy,it is only a matter of time before one of its product launches ends in (46)C.
Intentionally fuelling demand by limiting a product release to create a state of panic among consumers,who fear they may not get their hands on their objects of desire,is not only immoral but also (47)I.
Apple should take the lessons from the experience of Unilever(联合利华).The giant consumer goods company was (48)D  2million yuan in May 2011by the Chinese government for repeatedly spreading rumors(谣言) of price rises.
Apple has the ability to make it easier for consumers to order new products online or by telephone.Apple cannot afford to (49)Ethe Chinese market,so it has no excuse for not changing its strategy so as to avoid such incidents in the future.
20.A few years ago my husband,my son and I were traveling to visit my cousins.It was about two or three in the morning,when it became clear that we were lost.The country road seemed to be going on forever,and the (11)B we traveled,the worse it seemed to get.
Finally we(12)Da truck stop.So we pulled in and I got out of the car for (13)A.
"Does anybody here know how to find Merridale Road?"I asked.
A very tired waitress looked up and said,"Lady,I haven't got a clue."
Since she was not (14)C,I looked around at the customers.There,sitting nearby,were four of the toughest men I had ever seen in my life.Chains.Black leather.Skulls and crossbones (骷髅).
I immediately thought of my (15)C in the car and what these characters might do to us.
"We know (16)B you're going,"one of them said cheerfully."Not only that,but we'll take you there."
(17)D I could say no,they got up,paid their bill,and were outside on their motorcycles,gesturing (打手势),"(18)C us!"
We started to follow them down the dark and quiet country roads.
After a few minutes,my son decided it was all (19)A for us."They're taking us to a(20)D place,and that will be the end,"he said uneasily."I'm (21)B going to see my school or my friends again.How can you do this to me?"
I (22)A to my husband,"I don't want to scare Jack,but he's right.I am a bit (23)C.It's dark.The road is getting very lonely.And these people are tough.Maybe I did the(24)Dthing."
"No kidding,"he replied."We're just going to have to (25)B that it's going to be all right."
About an hour later,after (26)Athrough endless back roads deep in the woods,they gestured to us to go left.
We looked up,and there was the (27)D for Merridale Road.They had put us on the right road after all.And then they (28)Cgood-bye and disappeared from view.

7.In the days before bootleg(非法销售)DVDs,anyone who lived in China during the early 1990s will remember how terribly exciting it was when a foreign film was screened ln the cinema.Only 20foreign films a year were allowed to be shown in Chinese cinemas until February 2012.
The US film industry has shown a lot of interest in developing its business in China.The reasons for this are clear. China has a population of over 1.3billion and,with the standard of living rising all the time,the US film industry wants a slice (一片)of the profits.There are thousands of new cinemas being added throughout China.Technology is also improving all the time,meaning that more and more cinemas are able to show films in 3D or IMAX format(形式).
There is now a greater possibility of the US film industry earning more from the Chinese market.Now an agreement has been signed that will allow the number of foreign films a year to be increased to 34.This agreement with China will offer thousands of Americans jobs in and around the film industry.In addition,studios will be able to get 25%of the box office proceeds(收益),This was previously limited to about 13.5%. The real winners of the agreement will be The China Film Group and the Chinese cinema owners who make the largest profits.
The new deal is a huge step in the right direction.Even better.it will hopefully cut down on the Chinese bootleg DVD industry,which has long taken advantage of the fact that most Western films won't be shown in Chinese cinemas.

Title:Why China is important to the US film industry
(76)IntroductionDuring the early 1990s,people felt very(77)excitedwhen a foreign film was introduced to China.
Only 20films from abroad could be shown in Chinese cinemas until February 2012.
(78)ReasonsThe US film industry wants to make a(79)profit from the Chinese market because of its huge population and rapid development.
More and more new cinemas will be built in the future
3D or IMAX films will be shown in cinemas  because of the (80)improvementin technology.
(81)Advantagesof the agreement made by the US and ChinaIt can solve the employment problem,(82)offering thousands of Americans jobs in and around the film industry.

It can (85)protect the DVD industry against bootlegs.
4.Years ago,when I started looking for my first job,wise advised,"Barbara,be enthusiastic!Enthusiasm will take you further than any amount of experience."How right they were!
"Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm."wrote Ralph Waldo Emerson.It is the paste that helps you hang on there when the going tough.It is the inner voice that whispers,"I can do it!"when others shout,"No,you can't!"It took years and years for the early work of Barara McClintock,a geneticist who won the 1983 Nobel  Prize in medicine,to be generally accepted.Yet she didn't stop working on her experiments.Work was such a deep pleasure for her that she never thought of stopping.
We are all born with wide-eyed,enthusiastic wonder and it is this childlike wonder that gives enthusiastic people such youthful air,whatever their age was.At 90,cellist Palblo Cassls would start his day by playing Bach.A s the music flowed through his fingers his stooped shoulders would strengthen and joy would reappear in his eyes.As author and poet Samuei Ulman once wrote,"Years wrinkle the skin,but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul."
Enthusiastic people also love what they do,regardless of money or power.Patricia  Mellrath,retired director of the Missouri Repertory Theatre in Kansas City,was once asked where she got her enthusiasm.She replied,"My father,a lawyer long ago told me,I never made a dime until I stopped working for money."
If we cannot do what we love as a full-time career,we can as a hobby.Elizabeth Layton was 68 before she began to draw.This activity ended periods of depression that had troubled her for at least 30 years,and the quality of her led one critic to say,"I'm tempted to call Layton a genius."
We can't afford to waste tears on"might-have-beens".We need to turn the tears into sweat as we go after"what-can-be".We need to live each moment whole-heartedly,which all our senses-including pleasure in the sweet smell of a back-yard garden,the simple picture of a six-year-old,the beauty of  a  rainbow.
68.What is the Chinese for"Enthusiasm"?A
A.热情    
B.色彩     
C.惰性      
D.金钱
69.Which of the following can best explain the underlined sentence in the second paragraph?B
A.Enthusiasm can give you courage and strength in difficult times.
B.If you don't have enthusiasm,you can achieve nothing.
C.Enthusiastic people never consider money and fame.
D.Enthusiastic people can gain great fame and honor.
70.T he author mentions cellist Pablo Casals in the third paragraph to show thatC
A.music can arouse people's enthusiasm
B.enthusiasm can give people inspiration needed to succeed
C.enthusiasm can keep people feel young
D.enthusiasm can keep people healthy.
