2、or Mr. Rocco to shut up the shop when I hurried into the flower shop. Now, what is it you want? Mr. Rocco turned to me. I want the most beautiful flower you have, I replied. And just how much do you have to pay for this most beautiful flower? I held out a wet hand showing a quarter and dime. He nodd

3、ed, and then showed me a plant on the counter. I can give you this one for 35 cents, he said. Aw, gee, I protested, it looks like a weed（草）! About 18 inches high, the plant was in a small pot covered with faded red paper. Now trust me, boy - I promise that tomorrow morning when you get up, you will

4、find your most beautiful flower, said Mr. Rocco. I knew him to be a good honest man, so I agreed to take it. It was almost midnight when I arrived home.

5、e beside her bed. I wanted her to be surprised when she woke on Mothers Day. The next morning, I dressed and hurried downstairs. The sun was shining through the kitchen window as I looked into Mums room and glanced over at the table where the plant was. My goodness! There were three big yellow trump

6、et-shaped blooms. It was just like Mr. Rocco said - the most beautiful flower I ever saw! When I looked at Mum, she was smiling as tears streamed down her cheeks. She held out her hand for me to come near, then pulled me close and hugged me till it hurt. Then, remembering her contagious condition an

7、d that she wasnt supposed to touch me, she quickly let me go. My dear mum died the next night. The moment she hugged me turned out to be the most wonderful moment of my life.

(C)July 2nd of 2017 marked the 80th anniversary of the disappearance of Amelia Earhart, a pioneering pilot, and her copilot Fred N

21、oonan over the Pacific Ocean, as they attempted to fly around the globe in a Lockheed Electra plane. The many theories surrounding the pairs death into two broad groups: they crashed into the sea and drowned, or they crashed onto Nikumaroro, a remote island, where they starved to death. An American

22、forensic anthropologist（法医人类学家）has new evidence that greatly increases the likelihood of their having suffered the second fate. In 1940, three years after the Electras disappearance, a working party found human bones on the then uninhabited Nikumaroro. Nearby, they also found a part of a shoe they j

23、udged to be a womans. The bones were removed to a medical school where David Hoodless measured them and concluded that they had belonged to a strong, middle-aged male. Hoodless used certain formulae（公式）to calculate height from bone length, and concluded that the castaway was five feet five-and-a-hal

24、f inches tall. Hoodless also used three indicators of sex: the proportion of the circumference（周长）of the femur（大腿骨）to its length; the angle between the femur and the pelvis（骨盆）; and the sub-public（趾骨下的）angle between the two bones in the pelvis. Of those three indicators, only the sub-public angle is

25、 still considered valid. Even today, says Dr. Jantz, an experienced forensic anthropologist, making a sex assessment on the basis of this angle alone will not get it right all of the time. Hoodless observed that the bones were weather-beaten, and other damage which Dr Jantz thinks was more likely to

26、 have been caused by crabs. If Hoodless was right, the remains could not have been thsoe of the slim Earhart, whose driving and pilots licences gave her height as five feet seven and five feet eight respectively. Nor could they have been Noonans, since he was a quarter of an inch over six feet tall.

27、 But Dr Jantz concludes that in 1941, with the tools at his disposal, Dr Hoodless was unlikely to have been in his assessment. Dr Jantz also describes some new research into the matter. He compared Hoodlesss measurements to those of the skeletons of 2,700 white Americans who died between the 19th an

28、d mid-20th centuries. He included measurements of Earharts own bones calculated from photographs of her. He concludes that her bones more closely resembled the castaways then do 99% of the reference sample. That finding might be enough to convince those who have until now supported Hoodlesss conclus

29、ion. The truth may never be known fully. But even if those who claim she drowned succeed in explaining away the resemblance Dr Jantz has unearthed, another mystery awaits an answer. If the castaway was not Earhart, who was it?8. What is the new evidence?A. A part of a shoe is judged to be a womans.

30、B. The bones are believed to have belonged to a male. C. The driving and pilots licences have been found, which suggests the castaway was Amelia Earhart. D. Dr Jantz has discovered a resemblance between Earhart and the castaway. 9. What will a person who believe Hoodless theory most probably agree w

31、ith?A. Armelia Earhart died because she couldnt find anything to eat on Nikumaroro. B. Since the castaway was taller than Armelia Earhart, the bones could have been Noonans. C. Earhart and Noonan crashed into the sea and drowned. D. Its difficult to get it right when making a sex assessment on the b

32、asis of the sub-public angle. 10. How did Dr Jantz conduct his research?A. He calculated Earharts height from photographs of her and made a comparison. B. He examined the spend at which crabs did damage to bones to estimate the height of the castaway. C. He improved the tools which had once been use

33、d by Hoodless to get more accurate results. D. He took measurements of Earharts bones and found that the measurements resembled the castaways. Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are

34、two more sentences than you need. (D)A. Viewing learning as more work will make it less attractive in an already stressful situation. B.

35、ul environment. D. At the same time, there is no need to wait for stress to arise before seeking learning opportunities. E. Craft learning activities as a new form of work break. F.

36、cally can you do to increase learning when faced with stress at work?Start internally. (12) _. When stress emerges, change the message you tell yourself from this is a stressful work assignment/situation to this is a challenging but rewarding opportunity to learn. REframing stressful tasks as learni

37、ng possibilities shifts your mindset（思维模式）and better prepares you to approach the task with an orientation toward growth and longer-term gains. Work and learn with others. Instead of struggling with a stressful challenge solely in your own head, try to get input from others. Getting out and discussi

38、ng a stressor with your peers and colleagues might reveal hidden insights, either from their experience or from the questions and perspectives they raise. (13) _ Alongside purely relaxing breaks - either short ones like meditating or longer ones like taking days off - consider recasting learning its

39、elf as a break from your routine tasks at work. This might seem like a mere mental rebranding, but if a learning activity allows you to divert from the type of effort you use in regular work activities (e.g., numeric thinking, interacting with clients), and if the activity also fits your real intere

40、sts, it can refill you psychologically. (14) _ However, approaching it as a form of pause can make it more appealing and more likely to create positive, enjoyable experiences. Embracing learning can be a more active way to cushion yourself from negative effects of stress at work. (15) _ Even without pressing problems, engaging in learning as a central feature of your work life will help you build personal resources and equip you to be resilient and prepared in navigating future stress at work.
