and was the only one in his family who settled down in the United States.The rest of his family remained in Europe.When World War I broke out,he seemed to have become another man,downhearted.Such obvious change was not born out of concern for his welfare,but out of fear:if his only son,my uncle,had to go to war,it would be cousin fighting against cousin.One day in 1918,my Uncle Milton received his draft notice.My grandparents were very upset.But my mother,at the age of 10,felt on top of the world about her soldier brother going off to war.Realizing how he was regarded by his little sister and all of her friends,my uncle bought them all service pins,which meant that they had a loved one in the service.All the little girls were delighted.The moment came when my uncle and the other soldiers,without any training but all in uniforms,boarded the train.The band played and the crowd cheered.Although no one noticed,Im sure my grandmother had a tear in her eye for the only son.The train slowly pulled out,but not about a thousand yards when it suddenly paused.Everyone stared in wonder as the train slowly returned to the station.There was a dead silence before the doors opened and the men started to step out.Someone shouted,“The war is over!For a moment,nobody moved,but 日期:2022 年二月八日。日期:2022 年二月八日。then the people heard someone bark orders at the soldiers.The men lined up in two lines,walked down the steps,and with the band playing,marched down the street,as returning heroes,to be welcomed home.My mother said it was a great day,but she was just a little disappointed that it didnt last a tiny bit longer.21.What the grandfather was most worried about was .A.the spread of the world war B.the safety of his two cousins C.a drop in his living standards D.his relatives killing each other 22.The underlined phrase“draft notice means“A.order for army service B.train ticket for Europe C.letter of rejection D.note of warning 23.What did the“service pins(in Para.2)stand

story?A.Disappointing.B.Unexpected.C.Uncertain.D.Inspiring.B When I was nine years old,I loved to go fishing with my dad.But the only thing that wasnt very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldnt catch anything.日期:2022 年二月八日。日期:2022 年二月八日。I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why.He always answered,“Son,if you want to catch a fish,you have to think like a fish,I remember being even more upset then because,“Im not a fish!I didnt know how to think like a fish.Besides,I reasoned,how could what I think influence what a fish does?As I got a little older I began to understand what my dad really meant.So,I read some books on fish.And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings.I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature.That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer.Besides,water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade.Yet,fish dont have any eyelids(眼皮)and the sun hurts their eyes The more I understood fish,the more I became effective at finding and catching them.When I grew up and entered the business world,I remember hearing my first boss say,“We all need to think like salespeople.But it didnt completely make sense.My dad never once said,“If you want to catch a fish you need to think like a fisherman.What he said was,“You need to think like a fish.Years later,with great efforts to promote long-term services to people much older and richer than me,I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers.It is not an easy job.I will show you how in the following chapters.25What did the authors father really mean?A.To read about fish.B.To learn fishing by oneself.C.To understand what

D For those who are tired doing the laundry,Samsung has found an answer:a washing machine that can tell you when your laundry is done via a smartphone app(application).Strange though it may seem “my wife already does that was a common response among 日期:2022 年二月八日。日期:2022 年二月八日。attendees viewing the device when it was introduced at the Consumer Electronics Show(CES)this week Samsung is just one of many appliance makers racing to install(安装)a large number of internet-connected features in machines in an effort to make them“smart.Last year,it was a refrigerator that tweeted.This year,its Wi-Fi-enabled laundry machines and fridges that can tell you when your groceries are going bad.The washers and dryers,available starting in the spring,connect to any smartphone through a downloadable application.The phone can then be used as a remote control,so the machines can be turned on and off while their owners are at work or on the bus.Samsung says its not just something new the app connection actually has some practical uses.“If you started to dry clothes in the morning and forgot to take them out,you can go to your phone and restart your dryer for the time when come home,so your clothes are refreshed and ready to go,said spokesperson Amy Schmidt.The company also says that with electricity rate(电价)varying depending on the time of day,more control over when the machines are used can help save money.Perhaps,but what they will probably really accomplish is what all good technologies do enable laziness.Rather than getting up to check on whether the laundry is done,users will instead monitor it on their phones while watching TV.33.What can we learn about the new laundry machines?A.They can tell you when your clothes need washing.B.They can be controlled with a
