17、，选出最佳选项。AA few years ago, my younger sister and I were the first to board our flight for Norfolk, Virginia. Just as we were about to board the plane, a mechanic came out of the aircraft and blocked the door with his arms. He turned to the flight attendant and hurriedly stated, “We got problems!”I th

18、ought to myself, “Why did I have to be the one to hear that? Why couldnt I have been at the back of the line? I didnt need to know that!” Very soon we were back in the terminal, waiting, and then finally back on the plane. I waited for the pilot to give an explanation. Pilots take courses to ease pa

19、ssengers mind, right? They know what to say to calm nerves.Unfortunately, I didnt think this pilot took that course. Soon his voice thundered throughout the plane, “Sorry for the delay, ladies and gentlemen. We had no power on the plane. We have a generator on the ground right now, and were going to

20、 jump-start the engines. Once we get them going, well get up in the air and head to Norfolk, and see what happens.” See what happens? We were going to get up in the air, and see what happens? Couldnt we have another plan, one thats been worked out just a little better?At this point, all I could do w

21、as to laugh nervously. One woman started yelling, “Oh no! Were going to crash!” There were sighs of desperation and anxiety spreading throughout the cabin. Finally, we got up in the air thirty minutes later, and what happened? Nothing -other than thrust (推力) and lift. We arrived in Norfolk, and no s

22、ooner had the wheels touched the ground than a round of applause burst out, as everyone throughout the airplane simultaneously (同时) breathed a sigh of relief.Although, I did sincerely like to have a plan better than “see what happens” worked out when flying - it really isnt such a bad life strategy.

23、 Success will never be guaranteed. The best thing you can do is just get up in the air, and see what happens. Sometimes adjustments would be made in the air, or shall we say, in the middle of the process.56. The purpose of the text is to _.A. introduce a frightening flight experience B. prove that t

24、aking a plane is dangerousC. show a strategy of making plans D. tell readers a life strategy57. What event was beyond the authors expectation? A.

To set up a business, dont wait until you have everything you need.D. To achieve success, try to prepare for the worseB It is unlawful for an employer to pu

27、blish a discriminatory advertisement.How to identify a discriminatory(歧视的) advertisement: It must be read as a whole, and account must be taken not only of the words, but also of the pictures that it uses. Job titles that have sexual connotations（内涵） mean an intention to discriminate on the grounds

28、of sex.Example 1 A notice in a restaurant window states: “Waiters required”. The word “waiters” has a male, not a female, connotation. The advertisement does not contain an equal opportunities statement and does not specify that the jobs are open to men and women.Example2 A medical clinic places an

29、advertisement for a nurse with a photograph of a female nurse. Nursing is an occupation that is traditionally associated with women. The advertisement does not contain an equal opportunities statement. Good practice checklist:Advertise widely so that as many suitably qualified people as possible hav

30、e an opportunity to apply. Do not publish job advertisements in locations or publications where they are likely to be read wholly or mainly by people who share a particular community background, sex, race, disability, or age.Use language which is clear and simple and do not use abstract words. For e

31、xample, when describing the working environment or the characteristics of desirable employees, do not use words like young, mature or energetic.Where possible, do not use job titles which have a male or female connotation. For example, do not use the following words- waiter/waitress salesman/ salesg

32、irl postman manageress foremanstoreman matron chairman/ chairwoman head master/ mistress Instead, where possible, use job titles that have gender-neutral connotation, For example, the following words are appropriate- waiting staff sales assistant postal worker manager stores person supervisor chairp

33、erson nurse manager head teacher60.When trying to identify what might be a discriminatory advertisement, we should pay attention to its_.A length and words B. length and pictures C. style and words D. words and pictures61.

34、 female workersB. the traditional view that a nurse should be female is wrong.C. the job title is one of the most important factors in an advertisementD. advertisements for medical clinics shouldnt have photographs62. If you want to place an advertisement for a designer, you should publish it in _.A

35、. Southern Weekend B. Titan Sports C. Entertainment Weekly D. Shanghai lawyer C I must have been about fourteen then, and I put away the incident from my mind with the easy carelessness of youth. But the words, Carl Walter spoke that day, came back to me years later, and ever since have been of grea

36、t value to me.Carl Walter was my piano teacher. During one of my lessons he asked how much practicing I was doing. I said three or four hours a day.“Do you practice in long stretches, an hour at a time?”“I try to.”“Well, dont,” he said loudly. “When you grow up, time wont come in long stretches. Pra

37、ctice in minutes, whenever you can find them five or ten before school, after lunch, between household tasks. Spread the practice through the day, and piano-playing will become a part of your life.”When I was teaching at Columbia, I wanted to write, but class periods, theme-reading, and committee me

38、etings filled my days and evenings. For two years I got practically nothing down on paper, and my excuse was that I had no time. Then I remembered what Carl Walter had said. During the next week I conducted an experiment. Whenever I had five minutes unoccupied, I sat down and wrote a hundred words o

39、r so. To my astonishment, at the end of the week I had a rather large manuscript (手稿) ready for revision. Later on I wrote novels by the same piecemeal (零碎的) method. Though my teaching schedule had become heavier than ever, in every day there were moments which could be caught and put to use.There i

40、s an important trick in this time-using principle: you must get into your work quickly. If you have but five minutes for writing, you cant afford to waste it in chewing your pencil. You must make your mental preparations beforehand, and concentrate on your task almost instantly when the time comes.

41、Fortunately, rapid concentration is easier than most of us realize.I admit I have never learnt how to let go easily at the end of the five or ten minutes. But life can be counted on to supply interruptions. Carl Walter has had a significant influence on my life. To him I owe the discovery that even

42、very short periods of time add up to all useful hours I need, if I throw myself into it without delay.63. The meaning of “stretch” in the underlined part is the same as that in the sentence “ ”.A.

The author didnt take the teachers words to heart at first.B. Rapid concentration is more difficult than people imagine.C.

44、 The author thanked his teacher for teaching him to work in long stretches.D. Carl Walter has influenced the writer greatly since he was a student.66. What is probably the best title for this text?A. Concentrate on Your Work B. A Little at a TimeC. How I Became a Writer D. Good AdviceD Scientists ar

45、e using a kind of eye-tracking equipment to learn how babies look at the world. In the lab, children 5 months and older crawl (爬行) and walk up, down and over adjustable wooden slopes (斜坡), gaps and steps.It may seem like the set for a new reality television show, but there are no prizes, except perhaps for the researchers. They hope to understand what makes one child respond to another, how babies adjust their look to their hands
