26、Alabama: Priester’s Pecans

Dessert in the South basically starts and ends with an ooey-gooey pecan(核桃) pie. Especially in Alabama, where the pecan is the official state nut. While there are plenty of farms that pick and package pecans, perhaps the most famous is Priester’s, a family-run business that’s been supplying Alabama with its favorite nuts for over seven decades.

Alaska: Salmon jerky

Forget beef jerky(肉干)—in Alaska, it’s all about the salmon jerky. Home to five different species of the flavorful fish (king, red, pink, silver, and chum), the northernmost state produces nearly one-third of the wild salmon consumed around the world. Bonus: Salmon is one of the seven healthiest fish you can eat.

Arizona: Saguaro cactus

The largest cactus(仙人掌) in the United States, the saguaro cactus is found only in Arizona’s Sonoran Desert. Living to be up to 200 years old, the cacti, whose flower is also the state’s flower, are generally around 30 feet tall and can grow unlimited arms. Want to see for yourself? Visit one of these 10 outstanding desert escapes in America.

California: Wine Guide

It isn’t called “Wine Country” for no reason. Northern California, specifically Napa Valley and Sonoma Valley, produce over 60,000 registered wine labels, making vino(酒类产品) the state’s most valuable agricultural product.

27、   Quite often, no matter how good you are, your success is dependent on how other people such as your boss, peers, clients and customers notice your communication and responses. So when you come to people who make the key difference between helping you or holding you back, how can you influence and persuade them to give what you want.

Psychological research repeatedly show that people generally make up their minds on whether to help you or not based on whether they like you or not. It is human nature. What can you do about it? You need to make a good impression on others to ensure they like you and give you what you want. Research again shows that people give opportunities to the people they like best. In fact, most people actually make up their minds about other people in the first five minutes or less of meeting someone. These are called first impressions or "moments of truth. "

Once they make up their minds, they tend to be very unwilling to change their opinions. You hardly have room for error when making that first impression on a new acquaintance. Therefore, whether you are applying for a job, going for an interview, attending a meeting with your boss or peers, or serving a customer, you need to prepare yourself mentally and rehearse(排练) how you will manage the first few minutes of your interaction. This includes doing your homework to gather information and researching all possible issues so you will know how to deal with them if the other party (另一方)raise them unexpectedly.

It is amazing how poorly some people can come across at the beginning. The worst thing is that they do not even seem to realize it. Having good qualifications and an excellent work performance does not mean that candidates can succeed in making a good first impression.

【1】What is the passage mainly about?

A．Persuading people to like you.

B．Making a good first impression.

C．People making the key difference.

D．Useful tips for a job interview.

【2】What would people do when they like you according to Paragraph 2?

A．They would pay much attention to your good qualifications.

B．They would prefer to ignore your weaknesses.

C．They would change their opinions frequently.

D．They would be willing to offer chances.

【3】Which of the following tips might help in an interview according to the author?

A．Know as much as possible about the situation.

B．Ask the interviewers for homework to do.

C．Show your friendliness and confidence.

D．Do something unexpected to impress interviewers.

【4】What will probably be talked about in the next part of the passage?

A．Questions that might be asked by the interviewers.

B．How to win over people who don't like you at first.

C．Some practical advice to help making a good first impression.

D．Examples of how good first impressions help people succeed.

28、Girls should take part in competitive sport to build confidence, and the leaders of a group of girls’ schools will argue this week. Helen Fraser, director of the Girls’ Day School Trust(GDST), will tell the group that sport can help girls deal with failure.

“All girls, not just the sporty ones, should take physical exercise,” Ms. Fraser says. Research that girls are far less active than boys is worrying, she argues. Ms. Fraser will tell the group that she supports “sport for all”. “That’s why I love it when our schools have A, B, C and D teams and beyond,” she says.

The GDST draws on research from the Women’s Sport and Fitness Foundation which suggests only a quarter of girls in England meet basic levels of activity each week. One in five girls do no activity at all, twice the proportion of boys, the research suggests.

Ms. Fraser says other research suggests that more than 80% of women business leaders played sports while growing up. She uses the examples of former US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, who once was a skater and tennis player, and the head of the International Monetary Fund, Christine Lagarde, who was in the French national swimming team. Ms. Fraser says Olympic medallists like Jessica Ennis and Katherine Grainger are excellent role models for young women but says women’s sport needs more money and more news reports.

Valerie Dunsford, head of Sheffield High School for Girls, part of GDST, said it was important to offer a large number of sports to attract different types of girls. “Not everyone wants to be out playing the hockey.” said Ms. Dunsford.

【1】Which of the following ideas would Ms. Fraser agree with?

A．Boys are born to be sport lovers.

B．Girls are less confident than boys.

C．More should be done to make girls do sports.

D．Those taking part in the sport are always successes.

【2】What’s the proportion of boys who never take exercise?

A．1/10.

B．1/5.

C．1/4.

D．2/5.

【3】Ms. Fraser mentions those famous women to show__________.

A．hard work will pay off

B．it’s not easy to be great

C．sport can help girls to succeed

D．it’s necessary to balance work and sport

【4】What’s the purpose of the text?

A．To explain the key to success.

B．To show the importance of sport.

C．To introduce more sports to girls.

D．To encourage more girls to do sports.
