After many revisions, a board game was developed. It was a(n) 6 time. Our dream seemed to come true with sales starting to accumulate, and our company was also 78, another new board game 9 the market and made great progress in sales. Eventually, our company wasdissolved.Perhaps for a game developer, the 10 emotions that it never was meant to be will discourage his future dreams of a different life.

(40 points)Text 1Andrew started his job four years ago at a job search company G, when he worked in a computer programming language called Stata. Then other programming languages appear, and he has had to continually learn new skills. He says the ever-changing universe of work requires employees to be critical thinkers and fast to adapt to the new environment.People need to learn new technologies and apply their skills quickly and regularly. When companies hire new workers, they are not always looking for knowledge of a certain software, but soft skills like problem solving, effective communication and leadership. They also may want candidates who show a willingness to keep learning new skills.Students may believe that studying science, technology, engineering and mathematics, known as the STEM fields, will easily lead to a good first job. But employers are telling colleges: you are producing engineers, but they do not have the skills we need. That means finding new ways to solve a problem is more important than using established steps to do so.To get students ready, some colleges and even high schools, are working on building critical thinking skills. One example of this is at the private Westminster Schools in Atlanta, Georgia. For three weeks in January, students either get jobs or go on trips. The experience gives them a better sense of what they might do in the future.Career offices at universities also place a lot of importance on interview skills, teaching young people more than writing an effective resume and dressing well. They have to learn how to perform best on video and phone interviews, and how to deal with new ways of being chosen for a job.1、What does the job at G require Andrew to do?A. To apply what he learned in college to his work.B. To keep learning new knowledge to keep up.C. To have a good command of several languages.D. To keep changing jobs for different skills.2、What quality do companies require of new workers?A. Skills at solving problems and effective communication.B. Willingness to stop work and go for further education.C. Tricks at managing a whole department or research team.D. Readiness to stay behind after work and work overtime.3、What message do employers convey to colleges?A. Interview skills and effective resume are necessary for students.B. Good basic knowledge in related field is essential for students.C. Many new ways of looking for graduate employees are popular.D. College students should have the skills for solving problems.4、Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. New Skills Are Required of EmployersB , Traditional Education Limits Job ChancesC. Tomorrow's Jobs Require Soft SkillsD. What You Learn Today Decides Your FutureText 2Playing a musical instrument throughout: your life protects your hearing in old age, a Canadian study suggests. The study, published in Psychology and Aging, carried out hearing tests on 74 adult musicians and 89 non-musicians. It found a 70-year-old musician's hearing was as good as that of a 50-year-old who did not play.Hearing normally declines as people age. By 60, 10-30% of people have moderate hearing loss. By 80, that goes up to as many as 60%. Problems are particularly seen in the central auditory (听觉的)processing system, which is associated with understanding speech, especially when there is background noise.Previous studies have shown musicians have better hearing than non-players. But this research, by a team at the Rotman Research Institute in Toronto, looked at adults of all ages - from 3 to 91 - to see how people were affected as they aged. They carried out hearing tests on 74 amateur and professional musicians (who had played since the age of 1, were still practising and had been given formal music lessons) and 89 non-musicians (who had never played an instrument). Musicians were significantly better at picking out speech against noise.The researchers suggest that lifelong musicianship reduces age-related changes in the brain, probably due to musicians using their auditory systems at a high level on a regular basis.The head of biomedical research at Action on Hearing Loss, Dr Ralph Holme, said: "While this study suggests that musicians might be more able to cope with the consequences of hearing loss, it is far better to reduce damage in the first place by using appropriate ear protection. We have always campaingned for everyone who plays a musical instrument or listens to loud music to wear hearing protection, like earplugs, which reduce the risk of damaging your hearing permanently. 1、What can we learn from Paragraph 2?A. A person aged 80 will lose 30% hearing.B , A person aged above 60 must have bad hearing.C. People have fewer problems with background noise.D. People's hearing usually becomes worse when they get older.2、What can we get from the Canadian study?A. It tested the hearing of 12 people.B. The finding of the study wasn't published publicly.C. Playing a musical instrument may do good to hearing.D. Musicians were as good at picking out speech against noise as non-musicians.3、Why don't musicians change much in their brain as they age?A. They like to take more exercise.B , They use their hearing more and regularly.C. They don't expose themselves to background noise.D. They pay more attention to protecting their hearing.4、How can we deal with hearing loss according to Dr Ralph Holme?A. Get help from musicians. B Listen to loud music less. C , Protect hearing properly. D. Play a musical instrument more.5、The author wrote the passage to. A. entertain the readersB , advertise a musical instrumentC. complain about people's hearing loss D. inform readers of a research on hearingText 3Dear Students,I am delighted to be your guest.I would like to tell you about myself. I have been a news reporter for the past fifteen years. I chose this job so I could travel the world, but the job has taught me many unforgettable lessons. The work is sometimes difficult. I have seenfamines, wars, earthquakes, poverty and death. But I have also seen courage, hope and happiness.In India, I visited a city where there were many homeless children. Some were as young as four years old. They lived in the streets and survived by begging or stealing. But then a wonderful lady called Rosa opened a home for them. Within one year, she was looking after two hundred children. She clothed them, fed them, and taught them. She gave them hope.Another time, I was in Turkey after a terrible earthquake, in one place. I found an old lady whose house was in ruins, her son was missing and rescue workers said there was no chance that he was still alive. But the old lady did not give up hope. For four days, she moved heavy stones one at a time by herself. She did not stop until she found her son. He was alive.Here in China, I met a young boy with a serious condition. He had undergone twenty operations and spent nearly his whole life in hospital. I thought he would be sad, but when I met him, his smile was so warm and welcoming.In life, we need role models that we can admire and learn from. When my life is difficult, I try to remember the courage and goodness of these three people.1、The speaker is giving a speech to students in.A. IndiaB. CanadaC. TurkeyD.

She's a kind-hearted woman and she provides houses for the homeless children.D. She's a good teacher and she teaches the homeless children.4、For what does the speaker admire the Turkish woman and the Chinese boy?A. Their bravery. B. Their luck. C. Their age.D. Their strong mindText 4Although Paris is often considered the city of romance, close to a million adults who call it home are single. Many single people say that France's capital is one of the most difficult places to meet people. The complaints of this lonely group have inspired a new phenomenon known as "supermarket dating”. At Galerie Lafayette Gourmet, singles can shop fbr more than just the items on their grocery list. They can look for someone who has blue eyes, brown hair, and is 1.8 meters tall, or whatever may be on their romantic shopping list.At this Paris location, single people of all ages can schedule their shopping for Thursday nights between 6:30 and 9:00 p.m. When they walk through the door, they pick up a purple basket to advise that they are looking for love. They try to arrive early because the baskets disappear quickly, and then they have to wait in line for their turn to wander the store aisles. With purple baskets in hand, shoppers can consider their romantic options while they pick out their groceries. When they are ready to pay, they can go to the checkout line for singles who want to chat.Most of the people who look for love in the supermarket are skeptical of Internet dating. They know that it is easy to embellish （美化）one's appearance or to lie about one's age over the Internet. The supermarket, on the other hand, is considered a safe and casual environment in which to meet a potential match. In addition, what one finds in another's grocery basket can say a thing or two about that person's character or intentions. Buying pet food can be a man's way of showing a potential match that he has a sensitive side. Women who fill their baskets with low-fat food show their healthy style of living. These days it's possible to find much more than food at a grocery store.1、What do many single people in Pairs complain about?A. The difficulty in finding a match.B. The idea of supermarket dating.C , The items on their grocery list.D. The inconvenience in shopping.2、Which of the following can be inferred but is not clearly stated in the second paragraph?A.

They go through a special checkout.C - They pick out their groceries with great care.D. They dial the phone numbers on their shopping items.4、Why do the people prefer the supermarket dating to Internet dating?A. The supermarket dating is more convenient.B. The supermarket dating is more fun.C , The supermarket dating is more trustworthy.D. The supermarket dating is more economical.Part BDirections:Read the following text and answer the questions by choosing the most suitable subheading from the list A -G for each numbered paragraph (41 - 45).
