9.What would you like to be when you grow up?A teacher?A doctor?An astronaut?What do you need to do to achieve your dream job?Perhaps you think that studying well and then going on to work hard will get you successful career you want.We are constantly taught that our hard work will eventually pay off.
But a government survey has shown that hard work is not the only thing that will help you to move up the ladder.Two thirds of people believe that who you know matters more than what you know when it comes to social activity.So are the connections that you have more important than your education?
76% of the people in the survey believed that family background is important in influencing your chances of success.They believe that if you are privileged from birth,you are more likely to have a successful career,especially if your family is wealthy.
Even if you don't have a privileged background,the people you know can still make a difference to your career.Networking is a skill which is encouraged by many career advisers.Some companies run networking workshops to try and encourage staff to meet other people,to communicate and build relationships.It's a valuable skill.
But the survey also showed something quite interesting.Although most people believed that networks are more important than education,many people put their own career success down to talent,rather than background.41% of the people said that their parents'income had influenced their life,but at the same time,another 41% believed that they had achieved their own success.
So which is more important,what you know or who you know?It seems that by working hard and making lots of connections,the answer may be that both are very important.

21.According to the government survey,the most important factor to help people move up the ladder isB.
A.hard work   B.social relationship  C.education  D.social activity
22.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A
A.76% of the people think social relationship is most important.
B.41% of the people believe parents'income is most important.
C.76% of the people think family background ranks first.
D.41% of the people believe they gained their own success.
23.From the passage we can infer that the writer writes the article toC.
A.stress the importance of education
B.make lots of social connections
C.challenge the traditional belief
D.encourage people to work hard.
24.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?D
A.A Survey on People's Dreams        B.Keep Your Dream in Mind
C.A Wealthy and Smooth Career        D.The Way to Success.

Last Friday,we were organized to pay a visit to China Science and Technology Museum.Upon arrival,we were given an introduction about the various exhibition areas of the museum at the main hall.We listened very carefullyand were attracted to the exhibition of science and life.
Entering the exhibition hall,we were amazed by the splendid space models including the China Railway High-speed (CRH),the spacecraft and the rockets,which appealed many of us to take photos and have a hot discussion.Lots of us agreed that our country is on the high way to getting stronger.Knowing that there's a chance to experiencethe making of the space models in person in the DIY area,we rushed to there without any hesitation.There,under joint efforts,we made a model plane with what we learned in the exhibition hall,which pleased all of us.
Time flied,we didn't want but we had to bid farewell to the museum and the fabulous exhibition.On the way home,the school bus was boiled with excitement.We laughed and promised ourselvesthat we would try our best to make our motherland much stronger.In my mind,there was a sweet dream rising in which Idiscovered an unknown land with a new spacecraft from our Shenzhouseries.Icouldn't help smiling from the bottomof my heart..

14.Although many Chinese students say that their knowledge of English grammar is good,most would admit that their spoken English is poor.Whenever I speak to a Chinese student,they always say,"My spoken English is poor."(36)E.I would like to suggest that there may be some reasons for their problems with spoken English.
First,they fail to find suitable words to express themselves due to a limited vocabulary.(37)C.However,you can speak with a limited vocabulary,if you choose a positive attitude.Others will follow you as long as you use the words that you know.
(38)F.Sometimes they make mistakes when they are speaking because they are shy and nervous.Yet students should remember that their goal should be FLUENCY NOT ACCURACY.Your aim in writing is to be accurate following the rules for grammar and using the right words and spelling them correctly.However,in speaking your aim is fluency.You want to get your message across,to talk to someone in English,as quickly and as well as you can,even though sometimes you may use a wrong word or tense,but it doesn't matter. (39)A.
The third reason is that not enough attention is paid to listening.You have one mouth but two ears!All that hearing is necessary for you to start speaking.
Fourth,most Chinese students are reactive rather than proactive language learners.Instead of actively seeking out opportunities to improve their spoken English they passively wait for speaking opportunities to come to them and wonder why their English always remains poor. (40)D.

A.The person you are speaking to will understand you and make allowances for any mistakes he hears.
B.They may try to avoid making similar mistakes next time.
C.Obviously the better answer is to expand their vocabulary.
D.If you have this proactive outlook,then you will see English opportunities wherever you go.
E.However,their spoken English does not have to remain"poor"!F.Second,they are afraid of making mistakes.
G.The second reason lies in the reluctance of using what has just been learned.
3. Empathy
        Last year,researchers from the University of Michigan reported that empathy,the ability to understand other people,among college students had dropped sharply over the past 10 years.That could be because so many people have replaced face time with screen time,the researchers said.(36)BJennifer Freed,a codirector of a teen program,has another explanation.Turn on the TV,and you're showered with news and reality shows full of people fighting,competing,and generally treating one another with no respect.(37)DThere are good reasons not to follow those bad examples.Humans are socially related by nature.Having relationships with other people is an important part of being human-and having empathy is decisive to those relationships.Researchers have also found that empathetic teenagers are more likely to have high selfrespect.(38)GEmpathy is also an indication of a good leader.In fact,Freed says,many top companies report that empathy is one of the most important things they look for in new managers.(39)F"Academics are important.But if you don't have emotional (情感的) intelligence,you won't be as successful in work or in your love life,"she says.
        What's the best way to up your EQ (情商)?For starters,let down your guard and really listen to others.(40)C   To really develop empathy,you'd better volunteer at a nursing home or a hospital,join a club or a team that has a diverse membership,have a"sharing circle"with your family,or spend time caring for pets at an animal shelter.

A.Today,people spend more time alone and are less likely to join groups and clubs.
B."One doesn't develop empathy by having a lot of opinions and doing a lot of talking,"Freed   says.
C.Humans learn by example and most of the examples on it are anything but empathetic.
D.Empathy is a matter of learning how to understand someone else-both what they think and how they feel.
E.Good social skills,including empathy,are a kind of"emotional intelligence"that will help you  succeed in many areas of life.
F.Besides,empathy can be a cure for loneliness,sadness,anxiety,and fear.
G.Everyone is different,and levels of empathy differ from person to person.
