President Eisenhower was known by his assistants to be the person who could look at them with a smile, so they liked him. That's a good quality. Unfortunately, it is easy to forget that.Sometimes we tend to take ourselves too seriously, especially when we are under pressure and when our focus is on taking care of our own business; we lose sight of others and their needs. Many leaders feel they need to be rough in order to get others to take them seriously, which, of course, is not true. People get to know you and understand that you can be trusted, and then they follow through what you say. In fact, you gain the respect of people with a smile better than an angry look. Smiling is the most basic tool taught to employees in customer service. This is important whether you interact with the customer facetoface or via telephone.Did you know you can hear a smile? I interview candidates for jobs over the phone and I make it a point to smile while I'm talking with them. That is one of the primary things I am looking for in them as well. Imagine calling your doctor's office because you are sick and the person who answers the telephone rudely says, “Can you hold please？ without even saying hello! I have had that experience and you most likely have as well. Sometimes they don't even wait for you to answer before putting you on hold! How does that make you feel?A smile makes you more approachable and others more relaxed. And it makes you feel better too! Remember to wear your smile so that you have a good relationship with others.语篇解读本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者告诉我们微笑的好处很多，生活中我们要微笑待人。4What can be forgotten easily according to the author?ATreating strangers kindly.BWearing a pleasant expression.CKeeping optimistic in difficulty.DBeing patient with those around you.解析：细节理解题。根据第一段的内容可知，作者认为微笑是一个好品质，但是人们却容易忘记这一点。答案：B5What will likely happen when we are depressed or upset?AIgnoring others' feelings.BForgetting our own business.CAbandoning our goals or dreams.DFinding it hard to control emotion.解析：细节理解题。根据第二段的“Sometimes we tend to take ourselves too seriously, especially when we are under pressure and when our focus is on taking care of our own business; we lose sight of others and their needs可知，作者说当我们在压力之下，或者集中精力于自己的事情上时，我们就容易无视他人以及他人的需求。答案：A6What is the author looking for in the candidates on the phone?ATheir tool of smiling.BThe ability to hear a smile.CPolite attitude to customers.DGood skills of communicating.解析：细节理解题。根据第三段的“That is one of the primary things I am looking for in them as well.可知，作者在与应聘者打 时尽量自己做到微笑，这也是他想要在应聘者身上寻找的品质。答案：A7What does the author want to tell us in the last paragraph?AKind people love to smile.BGood relationships are important.CSmiling at others is a winwin choice.DApproachable people have good fortune.解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段的内容可知，作者在本段主要告诉我们微笑是双赢的选择，别人会因你的微笑而放松，你因此也会开心。答案：CC“Time is a problem for kids， states a news report for a new Swiss watch.

Of courseit's the Flik Flak, made by a famous Swiss watch company.The Flik Flak is being marketed as a teaching watch for children aged 4 to 10. The watch itself does not teach kids how to tell time, and of course it merely “controls their imagination by presenting the “hour hand as a beautiful red girl named Flak and the “minute hand as a tall blue boy named Flik. Flik points to corresponding blue minute numbers on the dial, while Flak points to red hour numbers, which is supposed to teach young children how to tell time.The watch comes equipped with a standard battery and a nylon band. Peter Lipkin, the United States sales manager for the Flik Flak, calls it “Kidproof：if it gets dirty you can throw the whole watch in the washing machine.

Air pollution lowers the average life spans (寿命) by a year worldwide and in more polluted parts of Asia and Africa, dirty air shortens lives up to twice that much. Scientists shared their new findings in Environmental Science & Technology Letters. The study used data gathered in 2022 as part of a project known as the Global Burden of Disease and was the first major countrybycountry look at the connection between the length of life and what's known as fine PM.Air pollution has been linked to many health problems. Most earlier studies had looked at how tiny air pollutants affected rates of illness or death. Joshua Apte is an environmental scientist at the University of Texas at Austin. By looking at life expectancy (预期寿命), his team had hoped to make the threat easier to understand. PM2.5 is what scientists call tiny particles (颗粒) of pollution in the air. Higher levels of PM2.5 can cause health problems and cut months, if not years, from the average length of life. This analysis shows how pollution affects life expectancy in different parts of the world.The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends limiting PM2.5 to 10 micrograms per cubic meter of air. Apte's group calculated how holding pollution to this low level would help people. In countries with very dirty air, meeting this standard would lengthen people's lives. However, in countries whose air already meets this standard, the study shows no gain in life expectancy. In other words, meeting the WHO standard won't reduce health costs resulting from dirty air because even below 10 micrograms per cubic meter, pollution still causes serious risks.Meanwhile, the scientists compared how other threats including smoking and cancer shorten the length of life across the globe.语篇解读本文是一篇说明文。空气污染正在缩短全球人均寿命。12What is special about the study?AIt won recognition from a professional journal.BIt discussed health problems caused by air pollution.CIt gathered lots of data for the Global Burden of Disease.DIt analyzed the link between life spans and PM by country.解析：细节理解题。由第一段中的“the first major countrybycountry look at the connection between the length of life and what's known as fine PM可知，这是第一个以国家为单位研究空气对人寿命的影响的研究。答案：D13What is Joshua Apte's team trying to do?AHelp people better understand air pollution.BStudy life expectancy in different countries.CKnow how small air pollutants affect health.DDeal with different kinds of health problems.解析：细节理解题。由第二段中的“his team had hoped to make the threat easier to understand可知选A。答案：A14What will happen if a country limits PM2.5 to 10 micrograms per cubic meter of air?APeople's life spans will surely increase.BIt will get strong support from the WHO.CPeople's health may not be much improved.DIt will guarantee people clean air.解析：细节理解题。由第四段中的“in countries whose air already meets this standard, the study shows no gain in life expectancy和“because even below 10 micrograms per cubic meter, pollution still causes serious risks可知，即使PM2.5在10微克/立方米以下，它也还会损害人类健康。答案：C15What might be discussed in the following paragraphs?AHow cleaning up the air can lengthen lives.BHow air pollution shortens lives by country.CHow other threats shorten life expectancy.DHow all the countries deal with severe pollution.解析：推理判断题。由最后一段中的“the scientists compared how other threats including smoking and cancer shorten the length of life across the globe可推知，下文很有可能会讨论不同的危险因素如何缩短人类的预期寿命。答案：C.阅读七选五(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正确选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。The thought often occurs to us that if only we had a little more time in the day we could do all the things we want to do. 16， but by improving time management skills we can be more productive and have more time for ourselves and our hobbies.17.
