They play basketball together, share meals and dance to hip-hop like no ones watching. The trainer was asked to work with the 13-year-old boy, who has Down syndrome (唐氏症), because his coworker who dealt with the boy was out of town last spring. Callari had never worked with someone with a disability before. He was anxious the first day he met Parker. But Parkers big smile and cheery introduction immediately put him at ease. He reminded Callari of himself when he was a teenager. Like Parker, Callari has also faced his fair share of challenges over the years.As a high schooler, Callari described himself as being the weak kid. When it came to sports, he was always overlooked. His dream of playing baseball in college quickly faded away. When he went to college, Callari turned to a new sport. His younger brother trained him to become a boxer. Callari participated in five matches. Out of four of those fights he was the underdog, and he won three times. I know how it feels, Callari said. Society tells you that you cant do this, you cant do that. When it comes to Parker, Callari refuses to accept the word “cant”The friends meet twice a week to train. They bike, box, run and work on their core with push-ups. Parker has a short attention span, so its callaris job to keep him focused. If Parker can do it, if hes having fun, even with his frustration, then people will ask, Why cant I do that?” Callari said. “Thats the whole task right now.” Callari recalls parkers mom once thanking him for taking a chance on her son. Callari told her he never viewed it that way. Parker may be the student, but Callari says hes also the one whos learning24. Why was Callari asked to train Parker?A.

A high schooler suffering lots of failure.C. The friendship between a disabled boy and his personal trainerD. Ways of developing friendship with the boy with Down syndromeCBeing mistreated at work can make people take out their negative emotions on loved ones at home. But a new study suggests that getting more exercise and sleep may help people better cope with them by leaving them at work, where they belong.Previous research shows that employees who are looked down on or insulted by colleagues are likely to express their frustrations and behave angrily toward people outside of work, says study co-author Shannon Taylor, a management professor at the University of Central Floridas College of Business.The new study backs up this idea, but offers a bit of good news as well: Employees who averaged more than 10, 500 steps a day or burned at least 2, 100 calories were less likely to mistreat their cohabitants than those who averaged fewer steps or burned fewer calories.The findings also revealed that when employees felt they had a bad nights sleep because of work issues, they were more likely to be grouchy at home. When youre tired, you are either less able or less motivated to regulate yourself. says co-author Larissa Barber, a professor of psychology at Northern Illinois University.Physical activity seems to counterbalance poor sleep, Barber says, because it promotes healthy brain functions needed to properly regulate emotions and behaviors. This study suggests that high amounts of exercise can be at least one way to improve the situations brought by sleep troubles that lead to negative behaviors at home, she says.Barber acknowledges that finding time to work out and get a full nights sleep can be difficult when work pressure is mounting, and that often, job stress can be directly related to sleep quality. But, she says, making the effort to burn some extra calories and blow off some steam can be worth it. Its not only good for you, says Taylor, but it can benefit the people live with.28. What does the underlined word they in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. Loved people at homeB Negative emotions.C. Different work pressures.D More exercise and sleep29.

Work pressure makes no difference in sleep quality.B. How to burn more calories has become a major issue for workers.C Enough exercise can replace good sleep in dealing with negative behaviors.D. The amount of calories employees burn affects the frequency of losing temper.DGoogle, one of the worlds outstanding tech companies, was attacked. It wasnt its search engine that was attacked or its advertising platform or even its social network, Google+. Instead, it was a building.Two web security experts hacked (侵入) into its Wharf 7 office in Sydney, Australia through Googles building management system (BMS). One of them, Billy Rios, says, My colleague and I have a lot of experience in web security, but it is not something that people couldnt learn. Once you understand how the system works，it is very simple.”They found the system on Shodan, a search engine that lists devices connected to the Internet, and then ran it through their own software to identify who owned the building. In the case of the Google hacking, the researchers had no immoral purpose and just informed Google about what they found.According to Mr. Rios, who runs security company Whitescope, there are 50,000 buildings currently connected to the Internet, including research institutes, churches and hospitals, and 2, 000 of those are online with no password protection. Martyn Thomas, a professor of IT at Gresham College in the UK, says, It is beyond doubt that attempts to attack building management systems are happening all the time.”Making a building smart generally means connecting the systems that control heating, lighting and security to the Internet and the wider corporate network. There was a strong reason for doing this, said Andrew Kelly, principal security consultant at defence company Qinetiq.Energy savings are the biggest factor in connecting building management systems to the corporate network, he says. It gives those who run the building better control and offers between 20% to 50% in energy savings, he adds.But it also makes them less secure. And if any of these feels like a Hollywood film, think again.32. How did Billy Rios and his colleague hack Googles building?A. They invented a search engine and connected it to Googles building.B. They worked for Google and mastered how the building worked.C. They used Googles BMS to find out the owner of the building.D. They connected their own software to the building to run Google.33. In the case of the Google hacking, the researchers had the intention ofA analyzing some immoral problemsB. explaining the reasons for energy savingsC. entering Googles building to save more energyD. telling Google about the Wharf 7 offices hidden danger34. Whats the main idea of Paragraph 4?A. There are many researchers contributing a lot to web securityB. The building management systems of some buildings are in danger.C. The attack on building management systems happens all over the world.D. There are too many buildings connected to the Internet to be managed well35. What is the authors attitude towards the way of the energy savings of some buildings?A. Negative.B AmbiguousC. IndifferentD Favorable.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。When people have a choice of whom to work with, likability can sometimes matter a little bit more than ability, said Tiziana Casciaro, an associate professor at the University of Torontos Rotman School of Management, who researches likability in the workplace. 36 These strategies can help: 37 You can induce a sense of similarity with almost anybody by finding things you have in common. They may not be apparent right away, so be observant. Great salespeople do this all the time by studying potential customers for bits and pieces of their lives they can relate to.Like someone and theyll like you right back 38 Flattery (奉承) can convey fondness, but she doesnt recommend using the fake kind, even though it may work. Casciaro said, Flattery that is completely made up is exhausting and morally blameworthy. Instead, let a praise come from a real place. 39 For instance, I really appreciate what you did yesterday.When you give people praises, it goes a very long way towards their liking you back.Be a familiar presenceHumans like things that are familiar, so just seeing you around in person makes you more likable to others. This concept gives a whole new meaning to the idea of face time, Casciaro said. 40 If not, just try to talk to people as much as possible in person during work hours, she advised. You want to maximize rich interactions and cut down on the drier ones, like texts and phone calls. Be sure to be seen.A. Ask a lot of questions.B. See the positive in a person and express it to him.C. People like to guess what others think about them.D. What can you do to increase your chances of being liked?E. Find the common points that link you with another person.F. Its almost irresistible that we like people who seem to like us.G. Go to after-work drinks if you have time and you would find the outing enjoyable.第三部分语言知识运用(共两节,满分45分)第一节(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面的短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。I am not a class president or a homecoming queen.
