For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation. To keep up their work, they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspa­pers and magazines: a never­ending flood of words. In __1__ a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend __2__ can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are __3__ readers. Most of us develop poor reading __4__ at an early age, and never get over them. The main deficiency __5__ in the actual stuff of language itself—words. Taken individually, words have __6__ meaning until they are strung together into phrases, sentences and paragraphs. __7__， however, the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously reads one word at a time, often regressing to __8__ words or passages. The tendency to look back over what you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading. Another habit which __9__ down the speed of reading is vocalization—sounding each word either orally or mentally as one reads.
To overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics use a device called an __10__， which moves a bar (or curtain) down the page at a predetermined speed. The bar is set at a slightly faster rate __11__ the reader finds comfortable, in order to “stretch” him.The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, __12__ word­by­word reading, regression and subvocalization, practically impossible. At first comprehension is sacrificed for speed. But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster, __13__ your comprehension will improve. Many people have found their reading skill drastically improved after some training. __14__ Charlce Au, a business manager, for instance, his reading rate was a reasonably good 172 words a minute before the training, now it is an excellent 1，378 words a minute. He is delighted that how he can __15__ a lot more reading material in a short period of time.

【要点综述】 阅读原来是一个愉悦身心的活动，但是劳碌的工作使人们远离了阅读所带来的乐趣。本文就如何开展有效的快速阅读进行了简洁的说明。
1．D　本句意思是“假如想谋得一份差事”。apply需加for，意思是“申请”；do做； offer供应。此三项均不符合题意，只有get(获得)适合。
2．A　本句意为“快速阅读与理解的力气，是关系到成败的关键所在”。只有quickly与原意吻合。easily简洁地；roughly 粗略地； decidedly坚决地。
3．C　由下文“Most of us develop poor reading…”可知此处选poor。其他选项不妥。
4．B　此处的意思是“大多数人早期养成不良的读书习惯”。因此选habit“习惯”。training 训练，培训；situation形势；custom风俗习惯。
5．A　此处说的是“主要的困难在于语言的自身要素，即单词”。combine联合；touch接触；involve包括。这三项的词义与原文不符。而lie与in构成搭配，意为“在于”。
6．C　这里的意思是“假如单个地看这些词，它们并没有什么意义”。some一些，少量的；a lot of很多；dull单调的。此三项不合题意。只有little(很少)是否定词，合乎规律。
7．D　此句指“作者对未受过阅读训练的人的不良习惯感到圆满”。fortunately幸运地；actually事实上；logically合乎规律地。unfortunately(不幸地)合乎句意。
8．B　此处意思为“在阅读时经常重读(反复读)”。因此，选reread“重读”。reuse再使用；rewrite改写；recite背诵。
9．C　scale down按比例削减；cut down削减。此两项不合题意。 measures不能与down搭配。只有slow down“放慢”能否与后面的speed搭配。
10．A　依据上文可知，训练快速阅读所使用的工具必定与提高阅读速度有关，因此选accelerator (快读器)。actor演员；amplifier放大器；observer观看者。
11．D　前面的faster打算了此处应当选than，构成比较级。
12．C　此句意为“快速阅读器迫使你加快阅读速度，使你再也不能逐字阅读，回顾前文内容或者默读。”enable相当于make possible；lead引导；indicate指出，表明。都不合题意。只有make (使得)最合适。
13．A　与前半句中的not only相呼应，构成句式not only…but…“不仅……而且……”，只能选but，而nor、or或for均不能与前面的not only搭配。
14．B　take与后面的for instance构成短语，意为“以……为例”，其他三项不能与for instance构成搭配。
15．D　此处意为“在较短时间内，读完众多的材料”。refer to参考；go over复习；set about着手做。此三项均不合题意；只有get through “完成”最恰当。

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。
A is for always getting to work on time.
B is for being extremely busy.
C is for the conscientious（勤勤恳恳的） way you do your job.
You may be all these things at the office, and more. But when it comes to getting ahead, experts say, the ABCs of business should include a P, for politics, as in office politics.
Dale Carnegie suggested as much more than 50 years ago: Hard work alone doesn’t ensure career advancement. You have to be able to sell yourself and your ideas, both publicly and behind the scenes. Yet, despite the obvious rewards of engaging in office politics—a better job, a raise, praise—many people are still unable or unwilling—to “play the game”.
“People assume that office politics involves some manipulative（工于心计的） behavior,” says Deborah Comer, an assistant professor of management at Hofstra University.“But politics derives from the word ‘polite’. It can mean lobbying（游说）and forming associations. It can mean being kind and helpful, or even trying, to please your superior, and then expecting something in return.”
In fact, today, experts define office politics as proper behaviors used to pursue one’s own self-interest in the workplace. In many cases, this involves some forms of socializing within the office environment—not just in large companies, but in small workplaces as well.
“The first thing people are usually judged on is their ability to perform well on a consistent basis,” says Neil P.Lewis,a management psychologist.“But if two or three candidates are up for a promotion, each of whom has reasonably similar ability, a manager is going to promote the person he or she likes best. It’ s simple human nature.”
Yet, psychologists say, many employees and employers have trouble with the concept of politics in the office. Some people, they say, have an idealistic vision of work and what it takes to succeed. Still others associate politics with flattery, fearful that, if they speak up for themselves, they may appear to be flattering their boss for favors.
Experts suggest altering this negative picture by recognizing the need for some self-promotion.
49. “Office politics” （Line 2,Para.4） is used in the passage to refer to____.
A. the political views and beliefs of office workers
B. the interpersonal relationships within a company
C. the various qualities required for a successful career
D. the code of behavior for company staff
50. To get promoted, one must not only be competent but
A. avoid being too outstanding B. get along well with his colleagues
C. honest and loyal to his company D. give his boss a good impression
51. The author considers office politics to be ____.
A. unwelcome at the workplace
B. bad for interpersonal relationships
C. an important factor for personal advancement
D. indispensable to the development of company culture
52. It is the author’ s view that____.
A. self-promotion does not necessarily mean flattery
B. hard work contributes very little to one’ s promotion
C. many employees fail to recognize the need of flattery
D. speaking up for oneself is part of human nature

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。
The producers of instant coffee found their product strongly resisted in the market places despite their product’s obvious advantages. Furthermore，the advertising expense for instant coffee was far greater than that for regular coffee. Efforts were made to find the cause of the users’ seemingly unreasonable resistance to the product. The reason given by most people was dislike for the taste. The producers doubt that there might be deeper reasons，however. This was supported by one of motivation research’s classic studies，one often cited in the trade. Mason Haire of the University of California constructed two shopping lists that were the same except for one item. There were six items common to both lists: hamburger，carrots，bread，baking powder，canned peaches，and potatoes，with the brands or amounts specified. The seventh item，in fifth place on both lists，read“lib. Maxwell House coffee”on one list and“Nescafe instant coffee”on the other. One list was given to each one in a group of fifty women，and the other list to those in another group of the same size. The women were asked to study their lists and then to describe，as far as they could，the kind of woman（personality and character）who would draw up that shopping list. Nearly half of those who had received the list including instant coffee described a housewife who was lazy and a poor planner. On the other hand，only one woman in the other group described the housewife，who had included regular coffee on，her list was lazy; only six of that group suggested that she was a poor planner. Eight women felt that the instant-coffee user was probably not a good wife！No one in the other group drew such a conclusion about the housewife who intended to buy regular coffee.
53. The result of the investigation showed that ________.
A. women who used regular coffee were good planners
B. most of the women investigated were good at reasons
C. many women believed that wives who used instant coffee were lazy
D. housewives who used instant coffee were lazy
54. In the study，the women were supposed to give the opinions about________.
A. which was better，instant coffee or regular coffee
B. women’s attitude towards shopping
C. the necessity of making such a shopping list
D. the personality of a woman who would prepare such a list
55. Judging by the result of the study many women were not interested in instant coffee because________.
A. they didn’t trust advertisements
B. instant coffee was not suited to their taste
C. they wanted to show that they were intelligent
D. they had a sense of shame about using instant coffee
56. The“instant coffee”probably means________.
A. expensive coffee B. coffee made up quickly for use
C. cheap coffee D.coffee made up slowly for use
