4.Nowadays,it seems that everybody wants to be a leader.Countless books about how to manage a company or influence others fill bookstores.But one needn't be a CEO or Politician lo be a leader.Former U.S.President John Adams said,"If your action inspires others to dream more,learn more,do more and become more,you are a leader.
The key to becoming such a leader lies in.character.People follow only those whom they respect,trust and admire.What attractive traits does such a leader have?Below are five of the most important.
Leaders have courage
The New York firefighters who ran into the burning World Trade Tower to rescue others are modem-day models of courage.Yet even more than physical courage,the everyday demands of modem life require moral courage.Insisting on doing the right thing despite pressure to act otherwise takes such courage.
Leaders must face fear and doubt in many of the decisions they make.Having these feelings doesn't mean one isn't courageous.After all,courage is not the absence of fear.Rather,it's doing the right thing despite one's fears.
Leaders are humble
Being humble simply means having an accurate view of one's own limitations.Everybody has limitations.Leaders deal with theirs by seeking help from others.
When leaders seek help,they recognize the skills that order other people bring to the table.And when they are successful,leaders generously praise all who contributed to the success.Humble leaders don't promote themselves; they promote others,
learning is a lifelong goal,no matter one's position.Humble leaders are never too proud to learn from all sources of knowledge-even those under them.
Leaders serve others
Just Christ said,"If anyone wants to be first,he must be the very last,and the servant of all."Leaders serve others and put the needs of others before themselves.They make the good of everyone on the team a personal priority.
Leaders who serve others help the whole team accomplish more.Leaders do things to make sure everybody has the resources needed."They go the extra mile to help out during a busy rush.When leaders serve,followers are also encouraged to serve each other.
Leaders have passion
Money or success can motivate someone to show up for an activity,But what motivates one to really put his heart into something?The answer is passion-the feeling that the activity is significant.
Outstanding leaders inspire others because they are motivated by passion for what they do.Leaders show the significance of routine work to others by emphasizing the big picture.They demonstrate how an activity not only benefits the individual,but also one's family,community and entire society.Their passion ignites the passion of others.
Leaders have integrity
One's integrity can be measured by what one does when nobody is looking.Leaders practice what they preach all the time,not just in the presence of others.Leaders also set the example for integrity.If a leader values being punctual,he arrives early-
Leadership is more about who you are than what you know or can do.By following these principles,you can become a better person.And that in turn will make you a better leader.

60.Which should be the very beginning of the text?C
A.Strong and effective leadership might have made the team more successful.
B.Leadership is the position of being the leader.
C.Leadership is not just about what you know or do-it1s also about who you are!
D.Leadership refers to the set of characteristics.
61.What does the underlined word"trait"probably mean?B
A.A strong point that one who serves in.a special field should be skilled in.
B.A particular characteristic that can produce a particular type of behavior.
C.A physical or mental power that is needed to do something.
D.A clear purpose that a good leader should work with.
62.This action"If a leader wants everyone to work hard,he works harder."belongs to"D
A.Leaders are humbleB.Leaders serve others
C.Leaders have passionD.Leaders have integrity
63.What could be the best title for the text?A
A.A Leader's CharacterB.A Leader for an Organization
C.The Abilities of a LeaderD.The Responsibilities of a Leader.

61   B 词义猜测题.根据该句中的"such a leader have"以及下文所介绍的领导者的五个重要的品格特征可知,traits意为"人的个性特点",故B项正确.
62   D 推理判断题.根据倒数第二段第三句"Leaders also set the example for integrity."可知,领导者往往起到榜样的作用,由此可推出,"领导者想要他人努力工作,他也努力工作"能体现出Leaders have integrity这个品质.故D项正确.
63   A 标题概括题.根据第二段最后两句"What attractive traits does such a leader have?Below are five of the most important."以及最后一段第一句"Leadership is more about who you are than what you know or can do."可知,本文主要讲述了领导者的品质.故A项正确.

16.If you live in an earthquake-prone area,it's wise to prepare your family well in advance for the next"Big One".It's always important to make sure to prepare for earthquakes.Earthquakes are more common than some people realize,and though they rarely end up causing damage,it's important to have your family prepared for an earthquake hit.
Put together an emergency kit that includes food and water to last a week,a fire extinguisher,portable radio,batteries,flashlight,and first-aid supplies.
Note all safe spots in each room,such as doorways or under sturdy tables and desks.Know the dangerous spots,such as fireplaces,windows,mirrors and hanging objects.Point out safety exits and keep those areas clear.
Make sure your family knows where emergency supplies are located.Check to be sure that everyone knows where and how to turn off electrical,gas,and water main valve and switches.Make sure that all family members know how to turn off the gas,water,and electricity in case there is damage after the earthquake that needs to be taken care of.It may prove useful to take your digital camera and make a"How to Guide",customized to your home,for these things which can be stored in the kit.
Establish how and where your family will reunite if separated during the quake.Arrange a place for the family to meet,if you cannot return to your home after the earthquake.If you have a relative outside of your area,arrange ahead of time to use his/her phone number as a contact point.Remember that phone lines will be needed for emergencies,so delay getting on the phone immediately after the earthquake.
Conduct earthquake drills with your family every six months.
Warnings and tips:
Warm clothing and extra sleeping bags come in handy.Games,toys,and books help keep young ones comforted and entertained.Keep what you can pack with your emergency kit.
Turning on light switches or lighting candles can start leaking gas-choose flashlights instead.

12.Is it possible to persuade mankind to live without war?War is an ancient institution,-which has existed for at least six thousand years.It was always bad and usually foolish,but in the past human race managed to live with it.Modern inventiveness has changed this.Either man will end war,or war will end man.For the present,it is nuclear weapons that cause the most serious danger,but bacteriological(使用细菌的)or chemical weapons may,before Iong,offer an even greater threat.If we succeed in ending nuclear weapons,our work will not be done.It will never be done until we have succeeded in ending war.To do this,we need to persuade mankind to look upon international questions in a new way,not as contests of force,in which the victory goes to the side which is most skillful in kiting people,but by agreement with principles of law.It is not easy to,change very old mental habits,but this is what must be attempted.
There are those who say that the adoption of this or that ideology(观念,思想意识)would prevent war.I believe this to be a big error.All ideologies are based upon dogmatic statements that are,at best,doubtful,and at worst,totally false.Their adherents (追随者,支持者)  believe in them so fanatically that they are willing to go to war in support of them.
The movement of world opinion during the past few years has been very largely such as we can welcome.It has become a commonplace that nuclear war must be avoided.Of course very difficult problems remain in the world,but the spirit in which they are being approached is a better one than it was some years ago.It has begun to be thought,even by the powerful men who decide whether we shall live or die,that negotiations should reach agreements even if both sides do not find these agreements wholly satisfactory.It has begun to be understood that the important conflict nowadays is not between different countries,but between man and the atom bomb.

64.In the sentence"To do this,we need to persuade mankind"(Para l),"this"refers toA.
A.abolish war B.improve weapons
C.solve international problemsD.live a peaceful life
65.From Paragraph 2we loam that the author of the passageD.
A.is an adherent of some modern ideologies
B.does not doubt the truth of any ideologies
C.believe that the adoption of some ideology could prevent war
D.does not think that adoption of any ideology could prevent war
66.The last paragraph suggests thatB.
A.nuclear war will definitely not take place
B.man begins to realize the danger ofnuclear war
C.nuclear war has already been understood by people
D.imitational agreements can be reached more easily now.

16.MELBOURNE,Australia-A kangaroo frightened by a man walking his dog attacked the pair,throwing the pet underwater and hitting the owner in the stomach with its back legs.The Australian,Chris Rickard,was in stable condition Monday after the attack,which ended when the 49-year-old struck the kangaroo in the throat.
Rickard said he was walking his blue dog,Rocky,on Sunday morning when they surprised a sleeping kangaroo in Arthur's Creek northeast of Melbourne.The dog chased the animal into a pond,when the kangaroo turned and knocked the pet underwater.
When Rickard tried to pull his dog free,the kangaroo turned on him,attacking with its back legs and tearing a deep cut into his stomach and across his face.
"I thought I might take action to drag the dog out from under his grasp,but I didn't expect him to actually attack me,"Rickard,49,told The Herald Sun newspaper."It was a shock at the start because it was a kangaroo,about 5 feet high,they don't go around killing people."
"I was stuck having to hold on to the dog with both hands because it was half drowned and I couldn't really see anything because the kangaroo just attacked me."
He added,"All I could do was just keep pushing for the bank and he was trying to push me under the water,so at that point I struck him in the throat and that made him back off a little bit.
"I don't think I'll ever be able to watch kangaroo programs quite the same as I used to-it might bring back a couple of bad memories."
Kangaroos rarely attack people but will fight if they feel threatened.
Dogs often chase kangaroos,which have been known to lead the pets into water and defend themselves there.
Rickard said he ended the attack by hitting the kangaroo in the throat adding Rocky was"half-drowned"when he pulled him from the water.

13.News reports warn us that the smog is expected to stay with us for a couple of months.Air quality is 10times worse than the World Health Organizaion's recommended levels.
You may think that there is nothing you can do about the air you breathe.(36)E
Wear an N95mask
Surgical masks won't do,my friends.You need a proper N95mask.(37)GThe purpose is to filter out the little particles(颗粒)in the air that can be very unhealthy if breathed in.It's not attractive,but our health is more important than looking attractive.
Drink lots of water and stay hydrated
Hot temperature and high humidity are often connected with high smog levels.This makes it important to stay in the shade and drink lots of water to stay hydrated,especially before,during,and after exercise.(38)F
Stay indoors
If possible,stay indoors.While you might want to visit your favourite open-air hawker stall(小贩摊档),now it's not the time to do so.(39)CBetter still,for those at work,pack your own lunch.What's more important,avoid exercise outdoors,especially from mid-morinnig to early evening,when smog levels are higher.
(40)A
Often neighbors or family members smoke in the hallways or just outside of apartment buildings,which makes the air much worse.And this air still comes into the apartments.So keep the windows closed and use air purifiers to protect your home.
When your city's smog gets bad,mow you have the tips to keep on trucking.Best of luck.
A.Protect your home.
B.Keep the windows closed.
C.If you want to go out,go to malls,and eat in enclosed spaces.
D.Consider exercising indoors in a smoke-free,air conditioned environment.
E.However,there are easy ways to protect yourself against smog and air pollution.
F.Besides,water will not only solve your thirst,but help clear your breathing passages.
G.Its straps should be securely fastened behind your head,to hold the mask against your face.
14.Being lonely in the crowd might seem ridiculous.But according to a recent survey,the situation is all too common.Loneliness and other anxiety problems-worrying about life's pressures-can even lead to self-murder.
An article in China Daily gave no reason for this other than the usual blaming of the post-80s generation.According to a high level official,young people suffering from discouragement are mostly"spoiled and have not been taught to be independent,responsible and express‘thank-you'."Well,how do you like that?First,I don't think China's youth are exactly spoiled.They certainly have more things than their parents did,but a lot of the money spent on them is for their education including various extra classes.
Discouragement and anxiety are now the fastest growing challenges in modern societies.We sense a lack of close friends who can talk to honestly and openly.In 1985,a US study found that one in ten people did not have such a friend.In 2006,it was one in four.It's easy to see the connection between loneliness and discouragement.But what actually causes this increasing loneliness?
Surely,with Internet social networking sites such as Kaixin,we have more friends than ever.A new study has shown that the more time teenagers spend in front of computers,the less close they are to friends and family.Kaixin or QQ may be fun but it lacks meaning,compared to personal connections in the real world.
And then there are those endless online games popular with young Chinese but increasingly there are more interesting choices.For example,new sports such as skateboarding are starting to catch on(流行) in bigger cities,as is playing music in a band.These creative hobbies are done in a group and thus friendship can be stronger.Hopefully young people will also be drawn out of the Internet cafes and interactive computer games that in fact fail to recreate a real and interactive experience.
28.According to the high level official,it is easy for teenagers lacking independence and responsibility toC.
A.become spoiled                     
B.play endless online games
C.suffer from loneliness and anxiety        
D.refuse to express gratitude
29.What does the writer think of the Internet social networking site Kaixin?D
A.Open but ridiculous.
B.Honest and responsible.
C.Real and fun.
D.Interesting but meaningless.
30.It can be inferred in Paragraph 3thatA.
A.it's now more difficult for people to find close friends to have an honest chat with
B.parents focus mostly on children's education rather than the personality building
C.young people have no idea of expressing appreciation because of being spoiled
D.teenagers will recreate a real and interactive experience to strengthen friendship
31.According to the text,which of the following can help us avoid being lonely in the crowd?D
A.To stay long in Internet cafes.
B.To focus on extra courses.
C.To give up our own hobbies.
D.To play music in a band.
