His success resulted in part from his ability to sell the product and in part from his policy of expanding during periods of economic decline, when most of his competitors were reducing their investments. Carnegie believed that individuals should progress through hard work, but he also felt strongly that the wealthy should use their fortunes for the benefit of society. He opposed charity, preferring instead to provide educational opportunities that would allow others to help themselves. “He who dies rich, dies disgraced”, he often said. Among his more noteworthy contributions to society are those that bear his name, including the Carnegie Institute of Pittsburgh, which has a library, a museum of fine arts, and a museum of national history. He also founded a school of technology that is now part of Carnegie-Mellon University. Other philanthropic(慈善的) gifts are the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace to promote understanding between nations, the Carnegie Institute of Washington to fund scientific research, and Carnegie Hall to provide a center for the arts. Few Americans have been left untouched by Andrew Carnegies generosity. His contributions of more than five million dollars established 2,500 libraries in small communities throughout the country and formed the nucleus(核心) of the public library system that we all enjoy today.21. The author quoted “He who dies rich, dies disgraced” in the passage to show _.A. He felt strongly that the wealthy should use their fortunes for the benefit of societyB. He opposed charityC. The wealthy die from their fortunesD. The wealthy die from not contributing to society22. Carnegies success includes the following aspects EXCEPT _. A. his policy of expanding B. his hard work C. his ability to sell the product D. his ability to produce the product.23. Which of the following may NOT be philanthropic gifts to society according to the passage? A. the Carnegie Institute of Washington. B. the Carnegie Institute of Pittsburgh. C. the steel industry. D. the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. (B) It is common to have difficulties sleeping during the day. Humans are naturally wired to sleep best at night and be awake during the day. However, modern work schedules require some people to try to accommodate the unnatural schedule of shift(轮班)work being awake at night and sleeping during the day.In order to make this adjustment, you need to pay special attention to your sleep environment and your preparation for sleep. If shift work is a necessary part of your work life, here are some suggestions that may help.Arrange to sleep uninterrupted in a quiet, dark room. This means you may have to turn off or unplug your phone, hang darkening curtains on the windows or wear a sleep eye mask, and train your family and friends to leave you alone while you sleep.Fit in a nap(小睡). When your daytime sleep period is too short, taking a short nap of less than 30 minutes just before work or on a break has been shown to improve alertness and enhance performance.Develop and follow a sleep routine. Its best if you go to sleep and wake up at the same time every day. Try not to vary this too much at weekends. Your body likes routine.Take extra care to make healthy choices. You may be tempted to reach for unhealthy foods or nicotine to stay awake or alcohol to try to sleep. But ultimately these choices are more harmful than helpful.If you have tried all these things and are still having problems getting enough quality sleep during the day, talk to your doctor or a sleep specialist. Sometimes medications(药物治疗)may be helpful and safe. In other cases, there may be an underlying sleep disorder that needs to be addressed.24. The purpose of the text is to _ . A. persuade workers to have a good sleep. B. advise night workers to keep healthy C. encourage workers to do day work D. help night workers to sleep well25. What does the author recommend? A. A suitable amount of alcohol to help sleep. B. A regular life on weekdays and weekends. C. A dark room without phones to sleep in. D. A break for sleeping anytime during the day.26. On which condition should a person turn to a sleep specialist for help? A. If he suffers from a sleep disorder for the first time. B. If a good sleep environment is greatly needed for him. C. If he fails to get quality sleep through his own efforts. D. If he has the problem of falling asleep in the daytime. (C) Street art can be found on buildings, sidewalks, street signs and even trash cans from Tokyo to Paris to New York City. This special kind of art can take the form of paintings, sculptures , cloth or even stickers. Street art has become part of a global visual culture. Now, even art museums and galleries are collecting the work of street artists.It is not easy to provide an exact history of the street art movement. This kind of art has developed in many kinds of ways in places all over the world. Also, because it is illegal to paint public and private property without permission, street artists usually work secretly. This secretive nature of street art and its countless forms make it hard to define exactly. And people have different opinions about the movement. Some think street art is a crime and destroys property. But others see this art as a rich form of non-traditional cultural expression.Many experts say the movement began in New York City in the nineteen sixties. Young adults would use paint in special cans to spray their “tag” on walls and train cars around the city. This tag was a name they created to identify themselves and their art work . This colorful style of writing is also called graffiti. It is visually exciting and energetic.Graffiti also became a separate movement expressing the street culture of young people living in big cities. Graffiti art represented social and political rebellion. These artists could travel around areas of the city making creative paintings for everyone to see. Sometimes this street art created a dispute between artists and city officials. Graffiti artists created their images and city officials quickly painted over them.During the 1980s, two famous New York paintersKeith Haring and Jean Michel began showing their work in art galleries and museums. This is when street art started to become part of the more general popular culture.27What can we infer from the first paragraph?AStreet art has become popular and is accepted as a kind of culture.BStreet art is very special compared with other forms of popular art.CMany people are beginning to learn street art.DStreet art is better developed in big cities than in rural areas.28Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A“TAG” was a word created by people to distinguish street artists and the other artists.BThere are three reasons to explain why it is hard to define the history of street art.CThe movement of street art began in the 1980s in New York City.DAll the people dont think that the street art is a rich form of cultural expression.29The city officials used to do away with graffiti probably because . Athey caused arguments between people Bthey were ugly in someones eyes Cthey were not painted under proper guidance Dthey didnt express good traditional culture .30They best title of the passage is . AThe way to become a street artist.BWhat does Graffiti art stand for ? CThe history of an art movement.Dthe work of street artists .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，并在答题卡将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。You may want to impress every classmate. _31_ Because approaching her directly may result in an awkward situation, an alternative solution is to try and impress her. Instead of thinking about the idea that you need to impress someone, take the time and effort to develop attractive qualities. Doing this will increase the possibility that the person you are trying to impress will approach you. _32_ Whether you feel like you are too fat, too skinny or too tall, accept yourself the way you are. _33_ By liking yourself and accepting who you are, you will feel more confident and have healthier self-esteem. Have a positive, optimistic attitude and feel good about yourself, despite your flaws. Classmates, especially those who are not so confident, will see how confident a person you are through your actions, not by how you look; and this quality will naturally be attractive and impressive. Show off your intelligence. You are in school already, and the classroom environment is a good place to show other people your diligence. Do not try to show off your intelligence for the sake of trying to look smart. _34_ Prepare for class every day and be patient in class. Act with kindness In a world full of people who have bad attitudes, acting with kindness will make you stand out. _35_ Offer them help with questions they are having difficulty with.

You are what you eat and wear in the eyes of your classmates.E. Dont try to be someone you are not because this will not impress others.F.
