21、   I work at a company where there are lots of employees. I can’t say that I know them all by name, but I know my fair share of them. I think that almost all of them know me. It is all based on one simple principle: I believe that every single person deserves to be acknowledged, even though it is only a smile or a nod of the head.

When I was about ten years old, I was walking down the street with my mother. She stopped to speak to Mr. Lee. I was busy throwing stones at the stop sign. I knew I could see Mr. Lee any old time around the neighborhood, so I didn’t pay any attention to him. After we passed Mr. Lee, my mother stopped me and said something that has stuck with me from that day until now. She said, “You let that be the last time you ever walk by somebody and not open up your mouth to speak, because even a dog can wave its tail when it passes you on the street.” That phrase sounds simple, but it’s been a guidepost for me and the foundation of who I am.

At work, I always used to say hello to the founder of the company and ask him how our business was doing. But I also spoke to the people who cleaned the buildings and asked how their children were doing. I’ve become vice president, but that hasn’t changed the way I approach people. I still follow my mother’s advice. I speak to everyone I see, no matter where I am. You will realize how powerful it is just to open your mouth and say, “Hello.” I’ve learned that speaking to people creates a pathway into their world, and it lets them come into mine, too.

【1】Which of the following can replace the underlined word “acknowledged” in Paragraph 1?

A.Accepted. B.Thanked.

C.Greeted. D.Respected.

【2】Why did the author ignore Mr. Lee?

A.The author often met him. B.The author was too busy.

C.The author didn’t like him. D.The author didn’t know him.

【3】What did the author learn from his mother?

A.Everyone should be treated fairly. B.Speak to everyone you see.

C.Polite behavior is important in your life. D.Friends may disappear from your life any time.

【4】What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?

A.To show respect for his mother. B.To share how to succeed in work.

C.To show how to approach others. D.To share an important principle.

23、   Scientists at MIT have managed to change ordinary spinach plants into natural sensors which can find chemicals used in bombs. The secret to giving spinach these special powers is nanotech, which is scientific area that deals with making or changing things that are extremely tiny.

“Ordinary spinach plants can be found everywhere and easy to store; like other plants, they normally take in carbon dioxide gas,” the scientists say. “But actually they can sense small changes of soil and water potential and respond to them. If we tap into this point, there is a wealth of information to access. That's what the scientists use to power their tiny experiments.”

For this experiment, the scientists placed two different kinds of tiny nano-materials into spinach plants. To get them into the plants, the scientists put a liquid containing them on the bottom of the plant's leaves. As part of its natural process, the spinach plant pulls water through its roots and into its leaves. If the water contains certain chemicals used in bombs, the tiny sensors in the leaves make the nano-tubes, which, along with the sensors, were placed into the spinach plant before by the scientists, produce a slightly special kind of light. By watching the plant constantly using a camera attached to a cheap computer ,the scientists set up a system that can send a warning email if chemicals from explosives are found in the water.

The computer the scientists used is about the size of a playing card. They say that in the future, their system could even use a cell phone with its camera changed slightly. Discovering chemicals used in bombs is just one of the many uses the researchers are exploring. They have used such plants to discover several other dangerous chemicals as well. From their point of view, there's no doubt that in the future, such systems could give farmers specific information about the health of the land and water on their farms.

【1】Why do the scientists use plants to do the experiment?

A．They are common in the daily life.

B．They are environmentally responsive.

C．They absorb much carbondioxide gas.

D．They are small in size and easy to store.

【2】What's the function of the carbon nano-tubes placed into spinach plants?

A．To control the camera.

B．To contain the liquid.

C．To fix the tiny sensors.

D．To give off plant light.

【3】What can we say about the application of the experiment?

A．It's diverse.

B．It's unexpected.

C．It's limited.

D．It's cheap.

【4】What's the suitable title for the text?

A．Spinach Is Sensitive to Chemicals in Bombs

B．Spinach Is taught to Send Warning Emails

C．Nanotech Helps Spinach Grow Healthily

D．Nanotech Protects Spinach from Danger

24、Companies across the world depend on the Internet to conduct their business. 【1】 Here are some reasons why your business must have a website.

Customers expect to be able to find you online. Having a proper business address used to give customers confidence in small companies. 【2】 Not having a website can send out negative messages: that you are no longer open or simply don't want new customers.

There are many ways to market a business, but wherever your efforts are focused, you should not do anything else until you have a website. Everything you do, all that you offer, every message will find a central home on your website.   【3】 Your campaigns(活动)should then be designed to lead customers to your website, where they can find out more.

【4】 It tells people all about you—who you are, what you do and why you are different. It reaches out to your customer base, attracting new customers. It also makes your existing ones hungry to use you again.

A website doesn't just generate(产生)sales. It can generate opportunities too. By setting up an opt-in(选择加入)for visitors on your site they'll be willing to give you their email address. You can then build a database of emails. 【5】 And the data you can collect will help you make truly informed(有依据的)decisions about your marketing and sales.

A．Your website is your shop window.

B．A great website will answer their questions.

C．Creating a website is easier than it ever has been.
