It all began a year ago，after the birth of his first child. Not wanting to appear rude，I asked him about the baby. The next week，not wanting him to think I had asked out of mere politeness the week before. I asked all about the baby again. Now I cant break the habit. I freeze whenever I see him coming. The words Hows the baby？come out on their own. It holds me up. It holds him up. So why cant I stop it？The answer is that I want him to like me. Come to think of it，I want everyone to like me. My sister had the same problem with the caretaker of her block of flats: All he ever does is complain；he talks at me rather than to me，never listen to a word I say，and yet for some reason Im always really nice to him. Im worried in case I have a difficulty one day，and he wont lift a finger to help. What about at work？Richard Lawton，a management trainer，warns: Those managers who are actually liked by most of their staff are always those to whom being liked is not the primary goal. The qualities that make managers popular are being honest with staff，treating them as human beings and observing common politeness like saying hello in the morning. To explain the point，Richard mentions the story of the company chairman who desperately wanted to be liked and who，after making one of his managers fired，said with moist（湿润的）eyes that he was so，so sorry the man was leaving. The employee replied If you were that sorry，I wouldnt be leaving. The lesson being，therefore，that if you try too hard to be liked，people wont like you. The experts say it all starts in childhood. If children feel they can only get love from their parents by being good，says Zelda West-Meads，a marriage guidance consultant，they develop low self-confidence and become compulsive（难以抑制的）givers. But is there anything wrong in being a giver，the world not being exactly short of takers？Anne Cousins believes there is. There is a point at which giving becomes unhealthy，she says. It comes when you do things for others but feel bad about it. I am now trying hard to say to people I feel uncomfortable about saying this，but. . ，and tell myself Refusal of a request does not mean rejection of a person and I find I can say almost anything to almost anyone.1、Why does the author ask the postman about his baby?AHe is interested in the baby.BHe wants to create a good impression.CHe wants to be always polite to him.DIts a way to start a chat with great politeness.2、What could we find out about the authors sister and the caretaker?AShe doesnt want to risk displeasing him.BShe doesnt pay attention to him.CHe often refuses to help her.DHe is impatient of her overreaction.3、Managers are more likely to be popular if they_.Ahelp the staff with their problemsBmake sure the staff do not lose their jobsCencourage the staff to be polite to each otherDdo not make too much effort to be liked4、what can we learn from this text?AIf you tell the truth, it will not make people like you less.BIf you take time to talk to people, they will like you better.CYou should avoid unpleasant situations where possible.DYou shouldnt refuse other peoples requests for help.5、What is the authors intention of writing this passage?ATo show how to let others like you more.BTo prove how to create a harmonious atmosphere.CTo encourage people to have more self-confidence.DTo suggest ways of dealing with difficult people.22（8分） Big tobacco is what the bosses of several large technology firms have started calling Facebook Being compared to the tobacco giants is far from praise， but it is not the only widespread analogy（比拟） A lower blow is the suggestion that Facebook may become like Yahoo， the once highflying internet rm that fellEven a year ago the idea would have been unthinkable But since January Facebook has become trapped in a series of misjudgments and missteps It became clear that it had done too little to stop Russian interference（干涉） in Americas election in 2016 It had to admit that it had shared the personal data of 90m users with outside firms without permissionThe comparison to Yahoo is imperfect Even at its peak Yahoos business was never as large and protable as Facebooks One of the main reasons Yahoo declined is because it lost out to a powerful competitor， Google， in online search； Marissa Mayer， its boss from 2012 until its sale to Verizon last year， was unable to restore advertisers or employees confidence as users leftBut people who watched Yahoos falling see similarities Executive（主管） turnover was a leading indicator of its decline； before Ms Mayer was hired Yahoo went through four chief executives in three years Mr Zuckerberg， who controls the majority of Facebooks voting shares， is not leaving， but many top executives are This year several have announced their departures， including Facebooks chief security officerWhen advertisers faith in Facebook has been shaken， politicians in Washington are running out of patience with the company Lawmakers inspection of the rm is causing it to be more cautious about how it uses data for targeting advertisements and about what information it makes available to outsidersMr Zuckerberg and Ms Sandberg are under pressure to prove to employees and advertisers that Facebook is not only trustworthy but worthy of their time and money If they cannot do so， and the companys share price continues its slide， it is possible that Ms Sandberg will be replaced in the next year Mr Zuckerberg will doubtless have thoughts about Yahoos sorry tale1、For Facebook， being compared to big tobacco is ApositiveBambitiousCcreativeDnegative2、According to the author， what does Facebook currently have in common with the failed Yahoo？ALetting out users dataBBeing deep in financial crisisCLeaders are leaving the companyDLaying off a large number of employees3、The author tries to support his judgment about Facebook by Aquestioning its managementBusing evidence related to itCanalyzing its financial dataDlisting its advantages and disadvantages4、What is the main idea of the passage？AFacebook gets trapped in troubleBTwo companies are deep in crisisCHow to save FacebookDFaith is more valuable than gold23（8分）With the development of our society, cell phones have become a common part in our lives. Have you ever run into a careless cell phone user on the street? Maybe they were busy talking, texting or checking updates on WeChat without looking at what was going on around them. As the number of this new “species” of human has kept rising, they have been given a new namephubbers (低头族).Recently a cartoon created by students from China Central Academy of Fine Arts put this group of people under the spotlight. In the short film, phubbers with various social identities bury themselves in their phones. A doctor plays with his cell phone while letting his patient die, a pretty woman takes a selfie (自拍) in front of a car accident site, and a father loses his child without knowing about it while using his mobile phone. A chain of similar events finally leads to the destruction(毁灭) of the world.Although the ending of the film sounds unrealistic, the damage phubbing can bring is real. Your health is the first to bear the effect and result of it. “Always bending your head to check your cell phone could damage your neck,” Guangming Daily quoted doctors words. “The neck is like a rope that breaks after long-term stretching.” Also, staring at cell phones for a long time will damage your eyesight gradually, according to the report.But thats not all. Being a phubber could also damage your social skills and drive you away from your friends and family. When getting together with family or friends, many people prefer to play their cell phones while others are chatting happily with each other and this creates a strange atmosphere, Qilu Evening News reported.It can also cost your life. There have been lots of reports on phubbers who fell to their death, suffered accidents, and were robbed of their cell phones in broad daylight.1、Why does the author give the example of a cartoon in Paragraph 2?ATo suggest phubbers will destroy the world.BTo call for people to go walking without phones.CTo tell people of the bad effects of phubbing.DTo advise students to create more cartoons like this.2、According to the passage, what risks may a phubber have?Destructing the worldAffecting his social skillsDamaging his neck and eyesightGetting separated from his friends and familyA B C D3、Whats the authors attitude towards phubbing?ASupportive BConfident CDisapproving DUnconcerned4、What will be talked about in the following paragraph?AWays to avoid the risks of phubbing. BBad effects of phubbing.CDaily life of phubbers. DMethods of phubbing.24（8分）I was born on the 17th of November 1828, in the village of Nam Ping, which is about four miles southwest of the Portuguese Colony (殖民地) of Macao, and is located on Pedro Island lying west of Macao, from which it is separated by a channel of half a mile wide.As early as 1834, an English lady, Mrs. Gutzlaff, wife of a missionary to China, came to Macao. Supported by the Ladies Association in London for the promotion of female education in India and the East, she immediately took up the work of starting a girls school for Chinese girls, which was soon followed by the opening of a boys school.Mrs. Gutzlaffs comprador(买办) happened to come from my village and was actually my fathers friend and neighbor. It was through him that my parents heard about Mrs. Gutzlaffs school and it was doubtlessly through his influence and means that my father got me admitted into the school. It has always been a mystery to me why my parents should put me into a foreign school, instead of a traditional Confucian school, where my big brother was placed. Most certainly such a step would have been more suitable for Chinese public opinion, taste, and the wants of the country, than to allow me to attend an English school. Moreover, a Chinese belief is the only avenue in China that leads to political promotion, influence, power and wealth. I can only guess that as foreign communication with China was just beginning to grow, my parents hoped that it might be worthwhile to put one of their sons to learning English. In this way he might become an interpreter and have a more advantageous position to enter the business and diplomatic world. I am wondering if that influenced my parents to put me into Mrs. Gutzlaffs School. As to what other sequences it has eventually brought about in my later life, they were entirely left in the hands of God.1、How was the author admitted to Mrs. Gutzlaffs school?AThrough his fathers friends help.BThrough his own efforts to exams.CThrough his fathers request.DThrough Mrs. Gutzlaffs influence.2、Why did the authors parents put him into an English school？AAn English school was more influential.BForeign trade with China was developing fast.CIt met with Chinese public opinion.DHe could become a successful interpreter.3、What did the author think of his parents decision to put him into an English school?AIt was skeptical. BIt was mysterious.CIt was thoughtful. DIt was wonderful.25（10分）I was delighted to receive a copy of Marie Curie and her Daughters by Shelley Emling through my letter-box a few weeks ago.Actually science has never really been my “thing”. At school I really struggled with physics and chemistry and was much happier in Eng
