阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从36---55各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A friend of mine met with an accident driving in darkness. His legs were so hurt that he couldn’t move. What was the 36was that he found himself unable to ask for help — his mobile phone went out of 37 as a result of exhausted battery. Nothing could be done but 38 in cold wilderness(荒野). It was 8 hours later that day broke, and then the 39 of the rescue.
It is almost 40 that he could stand the horror（恐惧） in the darkness for so long. Even more surprising was his 41 : “First of all I checked up my 42 conditions and found myself not in fatal danger. As there was no 43 to call for help, I leaned back in my seat trying my best to keep the wound from 44 . In this way I dozed off.”
His story put an end to my regret for the 45 of an exploration adventure that happened last year. A group of young men 46 to explore a mountain cave and got lost. 47 to find a way out in the dark cave they were frightened and ran anxiously without a sense of 48 . Finally they fell dead in fear and exhaustion. According to the 49 people that found them, the place where they got lost was only about 10 meters away from the 50 of the cave. If they stayed on the spot when they lost their way and tried to 51 themselves, they would probably sense a faint light shining not far away.

Don’t you think that you can compare it with 52 itself? When you meet with obstacles (障碍) in life and work, you are lost in darkness. 53 you it’s unclear yet and you needn’t put up struggle 54 . It seems to be a negative attitude, 55 a person who can afford to do so must have foresight as well as a great courage in the first place.

第三部分：阅读理解（共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下面短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和 D）中选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A
Scientists are trying to make the deserts into good land again. They want to bring water to the deserts, so people can live and grow food. They are learning a lot about the deserts. But more and more of the earth is becoming desert all the time. Scientists may not be able to change the desert in time.
Why is more and more land becoming desert? Scientists think that people make deserts. People are doing bad things to the earth.
Some places on the earth don’t get much rain. But they still don’t become deserts. This is because some green plants are growing there. Small green plants and grass are very important to dry places. Plants don’t let the sun make the earth even drier. Plants don’t let the wind blow the dirt away. When a bit of rain falls, the plants hold the water. Without plants, the land can become desert more easily.
56. Deserts ________.
A. never have any plants or animals in them
B. can all be turned into good land before long
C. are becoming smaller and smaller D. get very little rain
57. Small green plants are very important to dry places because ________.
A. they don’t let the sun make the earth drier
B. they don’t let the wind blow the earth away
C. they hold water D. all of the above
58. Land is becoming desert little by little because _______.
A. plants can’t grow there B. there is not enough rain
C. people haven’t done what scientists wish them to do
D. scientists know little about the deserts
59. Which is the main idea of the first paragraph?
A. Scientists know how to change desert into good land.
B. Land is becoming desert faster than scientists can change it back into good land.
C. If scientists can bring water to desert, people can live and grow food there.
D. Scientists want to bring water to the deserts.

B
Smile , when making an introduction.
Every day we meet people in a number of business and social situations. And the way we meet and greet them creates an impression. It's important to do so in a proper way, no matter whether you are introducing yourself to someone ,or introducing two people to each other. To keep you aware of this, we have gathered tips on how to make a proper introduction.
☆Always stand when making an introduction.
When you are seated and someone comes up to greet you ,make the effort to stand up. By doing this, you show respect for yourself and for the other person.
☆Always maintain eye contact while making an introduction.
Many people are not aware of the value of this simple action. When you make eye contact you are giving a confident image.
☆Always introduce a person of lesser authority to one of greater authority. The most important thing to remember is to say the most important person's name first. For example ,when introducing your supervisor(监督人) to a job candidate, you would give your supervisor's name first." Bob Jones, may I introduce Susan Lee, who has just graduated from ABC University?"
☆In a situation where rank is unimportant ,an introduction is based on sex and age .A man is presented to a woman and younger woman to an older woman.
What if you find yourself in a situation where you have forgotten the other person's name? Start with a handshake and reintroduce yourself .By doing this ,you will usually cause the other person to do the same.
However, if the other person does not take your suggestion, it is OK simply to apologize and let the person know that you cannot remember her or his name. This is not the ideal situation, of course ,but it does happen to all of us. The other person should be forgiving.
60.The article gives you advice on____.
A. how to make a self-introduction
B. how to make a proper introduction
C. how to leave a good impression on people
