21、Who are better leaders?

Have you ever considered what the most popular personality type is: being an extrovert(外向的人）or being an introvert(内向的人）?   It is hard to say. Each of these identities has its own strengths and weaknesses. 【1】 Some research has shown that introverts can outshine extroverts as leaders, despite the fact that the confident behavior of an extrovert fits many people's image of a typical CEO.

【2】 Outgoing workers or reserved ones? The answer, it turns out, is those who can be both. Combining the best of both personality types can make you an important role in the workplace. Although acting like both an extrovert and introvert might feel tricky at times, it's a skill we can all master with a little practice. Besides, it's not just CEOs who benefit from being both. The earlier in someone's career they build these skills, the better, since the benefits will improve over time. 【3】 On the contrary, it may mean introverts contributing more in meetings.

" To be more extroverted might require initiating conversation or making small talk," says Alisa Cohn, a coach from New York City." I like the idea of practicing such behavior three, four, five times a day in microdoses(微量）.   【4】Check how often you do these things each day, and if you have met your goal." She also recommends spotting a role model you admire in your office who has the introvert or extrovert qualities you're looking for.【5】

A．Well, who are more successful at work?

B．Is it possible to change your personality?

C．Little by little, you' ll find it easier to achieve that.

D．For extroverts, this may mean being quieter in meetings.

E．This doesn't mean that introverts aren't happy and relaxed.

F．Then you can watch their behavior and model yourself after them.

G．However, it seems that there's constant debate about which is better.

22、Parents and math teachers regularly asked by their school-aged charges whether math matters in real life now have an answer.

In a study published by the National Bureau of Economic Research this week, Harvard Kennedy School Policy Professor Joshua Goodman took a look at what happened to students whose high school were required in the 1980s to increase the minimum level of coursework required to graduate. What he found is that the students were more likely to increase the number of math courses they took as a result of the change in standards and that translated into higher earnings down the line.

Put simply: About 15 years after they graduated, the high school graduates who went to school when these changes took effect saw their average earnings increase about 10% for every extra year of math coursework. The findings may add fuel to the steady drum of education experts, policy makers and others calling for an increased focus on science and math education.

The increase in required math courses didn’t necessarily produce rocket scientists, Goodman notes, because the extra coursework wasn’t at a particularly high level. But becoming familiar with and practicing relatively basic math skills allowed high school graduates to pursue and excel at jobs that required some level of computational knowledge, he said.

Goodman acknowledged that the earnings boost for the students connected with the uptick (上升) in math education may be dependent on the state of the economy. When Goodman checked in in the late 1990s and early 2000s on the earnings of the students who graduated in the late 1980s, he found that their earnings increased significantly if they took more math.

【1】What is the purpose of paragraph 1?

A．To propose a definition.

B．To reach a conclusion.

C．To present an argument.

D．To make a comparison.

【2】How does the author demonstrate his finding in paragraph 3?

A．By listing some examples.

B．By referring to some data.

C．By quoting an expert's words.

D．By analyzing the educational policy.

【3】What can be inferred from paragraph 4?

A．Better late than never.

B．Fortune favors the brave.

C．Skill helps to promote excellence.

D．There is no royal road to learning.

【4】What could be the best title for the text?

A．Math makes money

B．Efforts matter most

C．Earnings of different graduates

D．The development of high school students

23、How many calories are there in every meal you eat? That seems like a difficult question to answer. But students at Aitkin High School in the United States can easily answer it now. They put what they eat into an online calorie counter（计算器）. It quickly measures the amount of calories in their meals.

In fact, this is part of the school’s health class. It includes heart health, nutrition and fitness. Students can learn basic knowledge about fats, proteins, calories and sugar.

Students learn how to balance calories in and out. They will know what happens when the balance isn’t there. “The online calorie counter has turned out to be a cool tool to help you make healthy choices. Making one healthy eating decision can really make a difference.” Adam Carlson, the teacher in charge, told local newspaper Aitkin Independent Age.

They also discus good ways to burn calories in the gym. According to Carlson, the gym is a great place to burn calories and get stronger. But it doesn’t work for everyone. So they try to find different workout tips. “I’m trying hard to teach the students that working out can be fun, challenging, and doesn’t need to take hours out of the day,” she said.

The class has indeed changed students. “I am now watching what I am eating and pay attention to the food labels,” said seventh-grader Karena Burgstaler. Another student James Erickson began to control his sugar input because it almost went over his daily calorie intake goal.

【1】After taking the health class, the students ______.

A．pay more attention to food prices

B．eat more food with labels

C．try to keep a balanced diet

D．stop eating sugary food

【2】What do we know about the students from the first two paragraphs?

A．They try to cook healthy food with fewer calories.

B．They learn about health and nutrition from a class.

C．They create a popular online calorie counter.

D．They teach people about food nutrition in class.

【3】Which of the following will Adam Carlson agree with?

A．Calories matter more than protein.

B．Fewer calories means better health.

C．The calorie counter doesn’t help.

D．Healthy eating habits are important.

【4】What is the best title for the text?

A．Eating with an online calorie counter

B．Counting calories to stay healthy

C．Opinions on how to balance your diet

D．A health class at Aitkin Independent Age

24、   When I was in college, a man named Henry worked as a custodian (看门人) in our student union building. White-haired, with a Pennsylvania Dutch accent, Henry could usually be seen in a baseball cap, a T-shirt and a pair of jeans.

He was the custodian, and he was the most respected and most well-known person in the building. Everyone loved Henry, and it was because of all the implicit ways he expressed his love for everyone around him. Henry didn’t have to say, “I love you.” He lived his love.

Henry was always excited when he met someone new, and he wanted to know everything about them. He felt it was important to do things for people he valued. And Henry seemed to value everyone he met. He brought in articles or cartoons for certain people, went out of his way to introduce people to each other, kept dozens of names and birthdays in his wallet so he could send cards, and helped students keep in touch with graduates who had written to him. He even assisted students who didn’t have enough money to buy their books.

Henry taught me --- and many others he supported --- how to live life to the fullest. Not by skydiving or exploring some foreign countries, but by appreciating where you are in life and valuing those around you.

The funny thing is that despite all he did and taught us, Henry truly believed that he was the lucky one --- that he was the one who was gaining so much by getting to know us. But all of us who remember Henry know that we were the ones who were truly blessed.

We will never forget the man who taught us that best way to say “I love you” often has little to do with the words.

【1】What does the word “implicit” in Paragraph 2 most probably mean?

A.silent. B.proper.

C.attractive. D.unbelievable.

A.made international travels to live a full life

B.was a role model of how to be a caring person

【3】Henry was always excited to meet new people because .

A.it would make people think highly of him

B.he was the most popular person in the college

C.it was part of his responsibility as a custodian

D.he treasured everything around him in his life

【4】Which of the following word cannot be used to describe Henry?

A.Kind. B.Adventurous.

C.Supportive. D.Sympathetic

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Before boarding the plane, we had had all schedualed. However, on discovering our family of five couldn’t sit together on our flight home, my husband and I went back and forth, trying out different combinations. Who would sit where in the two-up-front, three-in-the-back seating we’d been given?

We considered how we would board, carrying a 3-year-old son and five pieces of hand luggage with us, and taking care of our older son and daughter. Finally, we decided: my husband, up front with our older son; our daughter, younger son and me in the back — three seats in row 29.

We were the last to board. Our younger son was mentally disabled because of Down’s syndrome (唐氏综合征). Thankfully, he wouldn’t have to sit for longer than necessary in the plane. We settled our older son at the front and then slowly moved to the back of the plane. My husband searched through the already overstuffed overhead lockers (塞满的头顶储物柜), trying to find room for our bags. That’s when he noticed the problem with those seats. There weren’t three seats in row 29 at all. There was one in row 28 and two in row 29. “No matter,” I thought to myself.

However, it did matter. It turned out that our three seats were all singles. It was fine for my daughter, but what about my younger son? He was to sit behind me across the aisle (过道) — out of sight and out of reach. My heart sank. My breath was taken away. My mind and stomach churned (剧烈搅动). I called to the flight workers.

“I’m sorry,” I said, voice cracking. “I can’t fly like this.”

“Seats across the aisle are set next to each other,” said one, as if that would help me.

“But they’re not next to each other. One is behind the other, across the aisle. My son is only three. He is disabled. I can’t leave him by himself. He needs to be with me.”

注意：

1.续写词数应为150左右；

2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

The flight workers looked at each other, showed their understanding, but offered no solution.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Before I put him in the separate seat, a good-hearted couple stood up.
