7.When I arrived at 6a.m.in the large hospital kitchen,Rose was already checking name tags(标签) on the trays.
"Hi,I'm Janet."I tried to sound cheerful,although I already knew Rose's reputation for being impossible to work with."I'm scheduled to work with you this week."
Rose,a middle-aged woman,stopped what she was doing and looked closely over her reading glasses.I could tell from her expression she wasn't pleased to see a student worker.
"What do you want me to do?Start the coffee?"I asked.
Rose nodded and went back to checking name tags.
I filled the 40-cup pot with cold water and began making coffee when Rose yelled,"That's not the way to make coffee!"She stepped in and took over.Nothing I did pleased her.
Back at home,I stayed aloe in my room,fighting back tears.I thought,"Maybe she didn't feel well.Maybe she had some trouble."I decided to forgive her and try to get long with her.
The next morning,I ignored the hurtful remarks thrown in my direction and did things and did things Rose's way as much as possible.
Over the next few days an amazing thing began to happen.My focus shifted from what she was doing to me,and I started seeing Rose as the person she was hurting.The icy tension began to melt away.
Throughout the rest of the summer,we had numerous opportunities to work together.Each time she seemed happy to see me.As I worked with this lonely woman,I listened to her---something no one else had done.I learned that she was burdened by elderly parents who needed her care and her own health problems.
That summer I learned a lesson I've never forgotten.The world is full of people like Rose---annoying,demanding,unlovable---yet hurting inside.I've found that love is the best way to turn an enemy into a friend.

10.I left university with a good degree in English Literature,but no sense of what I wanted to do.Over the next six years,I was treading water, just trying to earn an income.I tried journalism,but I didn't think I was any good,then finance,which I hated.Finally,I got a job as a rights assistant at a famous publisher.I loved working with books,although the job that I did was dull.
I had enough savings to take a year off work,and I decided to try to satisfy a deep-down wish to write a novel.Attending a Novel Writing MA course gave me the structure I needed to write my first 55,000words.
It takes confidence to make a new start-there's a dark period in-between where you're neither one thing nor the other.You're out for dinner and people ask what you do,and you're too ashamed to say,"Well,I'm writing a novel,but I'm not quite sure if I'm going to get there."My confidence dived.Believing my novel could not be published,I put it aside.
Then I met an agent(代理商)who said I should send my novel out to agents.So,I did and,to my surprise,got some wonderful feedback.I felt a little hope that I might actually become a published writer and,after signing with an agent,I finished the second half of the novel.
The next problem was finding a publisher.After two-and-a-half years of no income,just waiting and wondering,a publisher offered me a book deal-that publisher turned out to be the one I once worked for.
It feels like an unbelievable stroke of luck-of fate,really.When you set out to do something different,there's no end in sight,so to find myself in a position where I now have my own name on a contract(合同)of the publisher-to be a published writer-is unbelievably rewarding(有回报的).
29.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1mean?C
A.I was waiting for good fortune.
B.I was trying to find an admirable job.
C.I was being aimless about a suitable job.
D.I was doing several jobs for more pay at a time.
30.The author decided to write a novelB.
A.to finish the writing course             
B.to realize her own dream
C.to satisfy readers'wish                
D.to earn more money
31.How did the writer feel halfway with the novel?D
A.Disturbed.
B.Ashamed.
C.Confident.
D.Uncertain.

B.Hard work can lead to success.
C.She feels like being unexpectedly lucky.
D.There is no end in sight when starting to do something.
7.One day a young man was standing in the middle of the town proclaiming(宣告) that he had(61)the most beautiful(beautiful) heart in the whole valley.A large crowd (62)gathered(gather),and they all admired his heart for it was perfect.
Suddenly,an old man appeared and said,"Why,your heart is not nearly as beautiful as (63)mine."The crowd and the young man looked at the old man's heart,which was full of scars.It had places where pieces had been removed and other pieces put in,but they didn't fit quite right,and there were several jagged(锯齿状的) edges.In fact,in some places there were deep gouges(沟槽) where whole pieces were  (64)missing(miss).
The young man laughed."Comparing your heart with mine,mine is perfect and yours is a mess of scars."
"Yes,"said the old man,"Yours looks perfect (65)butI would never trade with you.You see,every scar represents a person to (66)whomI have given my love.I tear out a piece of my heart and give it to them,and often they give me a piece of their heart that fits into the empty place in my heart.But because the pieces aren't exact,I have some rough edges,which I cherish,because they remind me of (67)thelove we shared.Sometimes I have given pieces of my heart away,and the other person hasn't returned a piece of his or her heart (68)tome.These are the empty gouges.Although these gouges are painful,they stay open,(69)reminding(remind) me of the love I have for those people.So now do you see(70)what true beauty is?"

Our spiritual intelligence quotient(精神智商), or SQ, helps us understand ourselves, and live fuller, happier lives.

Though we’re all born with SQ, most of us don’t even realize that we have it. Fortunately, you don't have to sign up for classes to learn how to improve your SQ. Here are some simple steps that can lead you to this new level of understanding.

Sit Quietly. The process of developing spiritual intelligence begins with solitude(独处) and silence. To tune in to your spirit, you have to turn down the volume(强度) in your busy, noisy, complicated life and force yourself to do nothing at all. Start small by creating islands for silence in your day. In the car, instead of listening to the music, use the time to think. At work, shut the door to your office between meetings, take a few breaths and let them out very, very slowly. Enjoy the stillness in your home after the kids are finally in bed.

Step Outside. For many people, nature sets their spirit free. Go outside to watch a beautiful sunset. If you are walking with the dog, take the time to admire flowers in bloom; follow the flight of a bird and watch clouds float overhead.

Ask Questions of Yourself. Ask open-ended questions, such as ‘What am I Feeling? What are my choices? Where am I heading?’

But don’t expect an answer to arrive through some supernatural forms of e-mail. ‘Rarely do I get an immediate answer to my question,’ says Reverend Joan Carter, a Presbyterian minister in Sausalito, California. ‘But later that day I suddenly find myself thinking about a problem in a perspective(角度) I never considered before.’

Trust Your Spirit. While most of us rely on gut(本能的) feeling to realize danger, spiritual intelligence pushes us, not away from, but towards some action that will lead to a greater good.
