Task 2 Read the passage. Choose the best answer for each question. We all know that employers check out the social media accounts of potential candidates, but did you know that they also look at staff accounts?Three months ago, I had just started a job in a restaurant. The first Saturday I worked there we had a staff shortage as quite a few people were off ill. At lunch time, I was left to serve about 20 customers by myself! As you can imagine, service was slow, and a few customers were quite rude to me.By the end of the day, I had a terrible headache, sore feet and was in a very bad mood. I just wanted to let off some steam, so I went home and wrote a blog post about the terrible day I'd had. It was supposed to be funny, but I did bad-mouth some of the customers, especially a large woman wearing a purple coat who had shouted at me because her coffee was cold. Then I shared the blog post to my social media accounts.That was a big mistake. I had forgotten that I was friends with my boss on social media. Unfortunately for me, the woman in the purple coat who I had described in my blog post turned out to be his wife!I was called into my boss’ office and fired the next day. What did I learn from this? Never write anything negative about your work on social media: it will always come back to bite you.A. How to find a part-time job in a restaurant.B. How to use social media to help you find a job.C. Job hunting? Pay attention to your online footprint.D. Bad day at work? Beware of letting off steam!
阅读理解。 Working to a clear plan during an emergency will help to ensure that you are effectively prioritizing (优先选择) many demands upon your attention. Do not allow yourself to become distracted by non-vital activities. Always bear in mind the main steps of emergency action-Assess, Make Safe, Give Emergency Aid and Get Help. Your approach should be brisk (轻快的), but calm and controlled, so that you can quickly take in as much information as possible. Your priorities are to identify any risks to yourself, to the casualty (伤亡人员), and to any other people around, then to access the resources available to you and the kind of help you may need. State that you have first-aid skills when offering your help. If there are no doctors, nurses, or more experienced people present, calmly take charge. First ask yourself these questions: Is there any continuing danger? ls anyone's life in immediate danger? Are there any other people who can help? Do I need specialist help? The conditions that caused the accident may still present further danger. Remember that you must put your own safety first. You can't help others if you become a casualty yourself. Often, very simple measures, such as turning off an electric switch, are enough to make the area safe. Sometimes more complicated procedures are required. Never put yourself and the casualty at further risk by attempting to do too much; be aware of your limitations. 1. In order to act effectively during an emergency, you are advised to _____ . A. follow a clear plan B. seek an expert's advice C. ask for help from a hospital D. turn to police for help2. To obtain the greatest amount of information in an emergency,you should ______ .

Passage 2In recent years, "city walk" has quietly emerged among young people in China, becoming a new tourism trend. Unlike traditional tourism, city walk does not aim to visit as many attractions as possible in a short time. Instead, it involves wandering freely or following themed routes through the streets and alleys of a city. Participants can taste local snacks, admire distinctive architecture, and learn about the local way of life. They also use cameras or smartphones to capture the city's scenery and people. This form of tourism allows city walkers to gain a deeper understanding of the history and culture of the city.32. What has become a new trend among young people in China recently?33. How do participants of a city walk record what they see?34. Why can city walk help people understand a city better?35. When has city walk started to become popular among young people in China?36.

Dragonflies （蜻蜓） eat a lot， and they constantly hunt for food． What's more， they usually catch it in the air． Zig! The dragonfly catches a small fly． Zag! It seizes a mosquito． Very few insects can outfly the dragonfly． No matter how fast they go， no matter which way they turn， the dragonfly is usually able to follow． Two engineers at the University of Tennessee Space Institute have been studying the way that dragonflies fly． Dr． James Wu and Dr． Ahmad Vakili are studying ways to design a fighter plane that can change direction as quickly and easily as dragonflies can． Why is that important？ If you are in a fighter plane， and another plane is after you， you want to be able to fly more quickly than the other plane， Dr． Vakili says． A dragonfly's wings are the key to its flying ability， Dr． Wu and Dr． Vakili say． If you look closely， you will see that a dragonfly has two wings on each side of its body-a long front wing and a slightly shorter back wing． During flight， small but powerful winds of air move along each of the dragonfly's front wings． Thus， the pressure of air keeps the dragonfly up in the air． A dragonfly's back wings help keep the winds from breaking up． Dr． Wu and Dr． vakili are studying ways to make fighter plane wings use air flow as efficiently as dragonfly wings． Does this mean that someday we'll have fighter planes that look like dragonflies？ Dr． Wu and Dr． vakili say no， because that would not be practical． They don't want wings that look like a dragonfly's． Rather， they want wings that work like a dragonfly's-designed to help fighter planes change course quickly and outfly their enemies．（1）The opening paragraph is mainly intended to show ____ ．A． the flying abilities of dragonfliesB． how dragonflies search for foodC． the food dragonflies preferD． why dragonflies fly so fast（2）What helps dragonflies fly quickly and change direction easily？ ____ A． The shape of their wings．B． The number of their wings．C． The strength of their wings．D． The structure of their wings．（3）Dr． Wu and Dr． vakili want to make fighter planes that can take advantage of ____ ．A． the power of the windB． the direction of the windC． air flowD． air pressure（4）We can infer that the fighter planes designed by Dr． Wu and Dr． vakili may ____ ．A． fly at a greater heightB． look like dragonfliesC． have more functionsD． make a turn quickly

The Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, is perhaps the most popular set of novels of the modern era. With seven books and many successful films to its name, the series has gathered about 15 billion dollars in sales. How did the series become so popular? The reason can be broken down into several areas.The first book in the series was rejected 12 times before it was picked up by Bloomsbury—a small publisher in England. So receiving this contract was Rowling's first step to success. However, getting a book contract does not ensure the success of a book. The story was soon loved by children and adults alike. In light of this, Bloomsbury Publishing published a second version of the books with “adult” (less colorful and more boring) book covers. This made it easier for a full range of ages to enjoy the series.Another factor that worked like a charm was that the publisher and Rowling herself, through the books, conducted midnight releases, promotions, and pre-ordering more readers. Customers who feared that their local bookstore would run out of copies responded by pre-ordering over 700,000 copies before the July 8, 2000 release.What does the underlined word “releases” (Para. 3) mean?A. The activity that frees or expresses energy or emotion.B. The announcement about the book’s publishing information.C. The sales of books that is available only at midnight.
The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator. Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding. [共5题](1)What kind of manager is needed in present international business and foreign investment? [本题2分]A. The man who represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation. B. The man with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. C. The man who is wealthy and impersonal. D. The man who can negotiate with his foreign counterparts.

question or statement.Hot pot is a traditional dish in China. It is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of the Jin Dynasty. Hot pot's origins can be found in the dining practices of Mongolian horsemen who rode across the steppe and into northern China. Legend has it that the Mongols used their helmets as pots to simmer (炖) broth (汤底) over open fires, and cooked chunks of meat in the broth.Hot pot cooking seems to have spread to northern China during the Tang Dynasty. In the regional variations developed with different ingredients such as seafood. In the centuries that witnessed the growth of the Song Dynasty, hot pot moved — and changed — further south, with each successive region adapting it to their local ingredients and tastes.The ingredients in a hot pot vary a lot from region to region. Perhaps the most famous hot pot is the Chongqing or Sichuan hot pot. It features a dark red broth chock-full (塞满了的) of spices, chili peppers, and the uniquely mouth-numbing Sichuan peppers. In Beijing and elsewhere in the north, hot pot broth tends to be mild and, compared to its racy southern "cousins", a little light. In the northeast of China, a kind of local sauerkraut (酸菜) is used to add some tang (强烈的味道), making the broth a bit sour. People can choose a version of hot pot according to their taste.1 Hot pot is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of _______.A. the Jin Dynasty B. the Tang DynastyC. the Song Dynasty D. the Yuan Dynasty
