Why should man take the ___21___ of
conquering(

Reading Comprehension
(30
分
)
A
Last summer I
went through a training program and became a
literacy volunteer
(
扫盲志愿
者
). The
training I received, though excellent, didn't not
tell me how it was to work with a real
student, however. When I began to
discover what other people
’
s
lives were like because they could
not
read, I realized the true importance of reading.
My first student Marie was
a 44-year-old single mother of three. In the first
lesson, I found
out she walked two
miles to the nearest supermarket twice a week
because she didn't know which
bus to
take. When I told her I would get her a bus
schedule, she told me it would not help because
she couldn't read it. She said she also
had difficulty once she got to the supermarket
because she
couldn't always remember
what she needed. Also, she could only recognize
items by sight, so if
the product had a
different label, she would not recognize it as the
product she wanted.
As
we
worked
together,
learning
how
to
read
built
Marie
’
s
self-confidence.
She
began
to
make
rapid progress and was even able to take the bus
to the supermarket. After this successful
trip, she reported how self-confident
she felt. At the end of the program, she began
helping her
youngest son, Tony, a shy
first grader, with his reading. I found that
helping Marie to build her
self-
confidence was more rewarding than anything I had
ever done before.
As
a
literacy
volunteer,
I
learned
a
great
deal
about
teaching
and
helping
others.
In
fact,
I
may have learned more from the
experience than Marie did.
36. What did
the writer do last summer?
A. She worked
in the supermarket.
B. She helped
someone to learn to read.
C. She helped
some single mothers.
D. She was trained
by a literacy volunteer.
37. Why didn't
Marie go to the supermarket by bus at first?
A. Because she liked to walk to the
supermarket.
B. Because she didn't have
a bus schedule.
C. Because she couldn't
afford the bus ticket.
D. Because she
couldn't find the right bus.
38. How
did Marie use to find the goods she wanted in the
supermarket?
A. She knew where the goods
were in the supermarket.
B. She asked
others to take her to the right place.
C. She managed to find the goods by
their looks.
D. She remembered the
names of the goods.
39. Which of the
statements is TRUE about Marie?
A.
She could do many things she had not been able to
before.
B. She was able to read stories
with the help of her son.
C. She
decided to continue her studies in school.
D. She helped to build up my self-
confidence.

) in
your paper and take a quick walk.
Have
fish for dinner; go to school or work by bike or

Select unfamiliar words from
the dictionary and work them into conversations.
It
seems
too
simple:
watching
a
quiz
show,
doing
a
crosswords,
remembering
telephone
numbers and taking
a shower with your eyes closed. Yet these
“
brain
exercises
”
can make us all
up to 40 percent cleverer within seven
days, according to a BBC program shown last week.
“
IQ
has
traditionally
been
thought
of
as
a
fixed
measure
of
someone
’
s
intelligence,
”
said
Philip Morrow,
executive producer of the program, Get Smarter
in a Week.
“
But an increasing
body
of
scientific
opinion
holds
that
you
can
take
steps
in
your
life
to
actually
improve
your
brainpower. You can do it by, for
example, enhancing your memory, working on your
spatial(
空间
的
)
awareness, doing things differently and eating
healthily. Scientists say you will see noticeable
improvements within a
week.
”
The program put
scientists
’
growing belief
that lifestyle changes
influence
intelligence to test.
The
BBC production team earlier did trial runs among
15 volunteers, who each followed a
“
get
smarter
”
schedule for a
week. What they found was that some performed up
to 40 percent
better than in the
initial assessment, 10 percent.
“
This
program
shows
everyone
can
get
smarter,
and
feel
better,
if
they
do
these
simple
things,
”
said
Morrow.
40. This BBC program is trying
to prove the idea that ________.
A.
brainpower is what one is born with and can not be
enhanced.
B. one can improve his
brainpower by living in a different lifestyle.
C. once a
person
’
s IQ is measured, it
is fixed and will never change.
D.
everyone
’
s brainpower is
determined by his own lifestyle.

Nearly a quarter of British workers
plug in their MP3 players to listen to music while
on the
job--- sparking lively debate
over whether they should be banned, a study said.
Over 30 percent of
companies have
outlawed
using devices like the ipod in the workplace,
according to Woods Bagot, an
international design practice.
“
By
wearing
the
highly-visible,
white
headphones,
they
’
re
…
< br>sending
a
signal
to
colleagues
that they don't want to be
bothered,
”
said Simon Pole,
head of a company.
According
to
the
study,
22
percent
of
workers
spend
an
average
of
three
hours
per
day
listening
to
MP3
players.
But
some
argue
that
the
trend
is
only
natural:
previously(
先前的
)
workers were physically separated by
walls, whereas offices are increasingly open-plan
nowadays,
pushing them to
erect(
建立
) new barriers.
“
The MP3 player
is the simplest way to create your own
office,
”
said the company.
