三、阅读理解（共4题）
1、 Sophia is smart, talented and incredibly nice. As a team leader, she wishes Nathan, a member of her history project, did his part as required. But rather than criticize him, Sophia offered polite encouragement trying to push him instead, only to find that Nathan kept falling behind. It ended up that other team members, who had to take on more work, complained about both Sophia and Nathan, while Nathan himself complained that he was not treated fairly.
How did poor Sophia get into this mess? The primary reason was that Sophia failed in a key aspect of leadership- the duty to provide clear feedback( 反馈 )for team members. This isn't simply a duty but a correctness.
Failing to question or criticize Nathan's work, Sophia was in fact unkind. Many people are not a failure, like Nathan in this case; they're just in the wrong place, and still left in the dark. What they really need is feedback from their leaders. However, Sophia, in this case, withheld a gift from Nathan.
"You'd better use open, honest, continuous and clear feedback," says Harry Kraemer, a professor of management and strategy at Northwestern University, "to help figure out someone's best fit- in their particular job or in the organization."
This approach also prevents surprises. It's not uncommon to see someone suddenly removed from a team. They may have deserved it, but with a kind leader, they wouldn't have been caught off-guard because they would have been receiving open, honest, continuous and clear judgment of their performance.
Then why is it so hard for leaders to give good feedback? "We like to be liked," Kraemer says. So we avoid anything that may cause unpleasantness, but that kind of feedback usually helps members find the right place for them. "If you like to be liked, the chance of being respected is extremely low. However, if you start off focusing on being respected, you have a chance of being liked." Kraemer adds. The most difficult part for the leader, of course, involves criticizing someone. That is what a nice leader finds hard.
Back to Sophia's case. Not telling Nathan how he was on the team only made a hard situation worse. But with a different mindset, she could have set herself and Nathan up for success.
1 ． The expression "caught off-guard" in Paragraph 5 probably means"________"
A ． kicked out carelessly B ． treated unexpectedly
C ． sent out unfairly D ． guided effortlessly
2 ． The writer probably agrees that________.
A ． being nice to team members is likely to win leaders great respect
B ． criticizing team members results in serious complaints to the leader
C ． open and honest communication is a must for leaders and team members
D ． praise and encouragement from leaders bring out better team performance
3 ． According to the writer, what Sophia should do is________.
A ． patiently encouraging Nathan to try his best
B ． gradually having Nathan dropped out of the project
C ． politely showing Nathan the improvement he made
D ． clearly telling Nathan her judgment of his performance
4 ． Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A ． To be nice or to be kind? B ． To be liked or to be criticized?
C ． Is it necessary for leaders to be pleasing? D ． Is it helpful for leaders to be demanding?
2、  Time flies. My summer vacation ended in the blink of an eye, but one thing is still on my mind. From July 25 to 27, I worked as a volunteer at the Wolong China Giant Panda Garden in Sichuan. I experienced the life of being a panda keeper.
My work included cleaning the pandas’ home, feeding the pandas and making food for them. The panda I took care of was named Jingke. When I went to feed him, he would stretch(伸出) one of his forefeet out on a shelf that hung on the fence and wait for his food. He would quickly grab the food as soon as I brought it to him. Can you guess what would happened next? Jingke would lie down and begin to eat. I could hear him crunching(嘎吱作响地咀嚼) on his food and see him twisting his body around like a dancer. It was really cute. This was one of the most interesting things I saw when I worked there.
When I fed Jingke, I touched his fur(毛). Most people think that panda's fur would be soft. But actually, panda's fur is very hard. I felt like I was touching needles.I looked at his teeth, too— they were sharp and big. No wonder the panda keepers told us that pandas are not only cute, but also dangerous.
I am happy to be so close to the pandas. This experience lets me know that it is no easy to be a panda keeper.
16．What is the meaning of the underlined phrase in paragraph 1?
A．瞬息万变   B．眨眼之间   C．成年累月   D．一夜之间
17．As a panda keeper, what did the writer usually do except ________ ?

C．training the pandas      D．making food for the pandas
18．What was Jingke like when he was eating?
A．A fighter.         B．A baby.
C．A dancer.          D．A snake.
19．According to this passage, we can know that panda's fur is ___________.
A．hard         B．soft
C．comfortable        D．smooth
20．What is the best title of this passage?
A．A panda lover         B．Keeping pandas
C．The pandas in Wolong     D．My experience as a panda keeper
3、 America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon. They don’t feel hurt. If the same two people meet again, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand .Friendships between us develop more slowly but may become lifelong feelings, extending（延伸）deeply into both families.
There is another difficult point for us to understand. Although Americans treat friends warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don’t show their politeness to them if it requires a great deal of time. But in China, we are usually generous with our time. We, as hosts, will appear at an airport even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take a day off from our work to act as guides to our friends. It is opposite in America. Americans cannot manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily plans. They will probably expect the visitors to get themselves from the airport to the hotels. And they expect the visitors will phone them from there. Once the visitors arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real.
For Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to restaurants, except for business matters. Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. So accept their hospitality（好客）at home and enjoy your visit in America!
33．The underlined phrase "pick up" in Paragraph 1 may mean "_________________".
A．put down      B．give up       C．pay no attention to   D．continue
34．From the passage, we can know_________________.
A．Americans are always generous with their time.
B．Americans don’t feel hurt if their friendships disappear soon.
C．Chinese friendships develop more slowly but will never disappear.
D．Chinese friendships develop faster than American friendships.
35．This passage is most probably written for __________________.
A．American students          B．Chinese students
C．Chinese visitors to America       D．American visitors to China
