Dear Mr Johnson,

I’m writing to tell you that I had a safe journey back to Beijing. Thanks for your kindness, I had a wonderfully time in Australia. It is my first time to go aboard and I was naturally a bit nervous when I was arrived. When I saw you at an airport, I knew from your warm smile that something would be all right. With your help, I visited so many places of interests in Australia, where impressed me a lot. I hope some day you will go to visit Beijing and I will act as a guide show you around the city.

Yours,

Every one of us, rich or poor, should at least have one or two good friends. I learned that a true friend is the most important in my life after I had gone   41    so many terrible things. I felt upset when I was told that I would have to   42   the company. As I had a very big family to   43   and was in great need of money, what I was   44    about was how to find another new job. In order to    45     this problem, I rushed from place to place like crazy. I read almost all the newspapers and    46    almost all the telephone numbers in the newspaper   47   in my notebook and tried to call almost all the companies that needed new    48   . Not until I found a job in a small town near Townsville had I    49    down. My new boss, Mr. Johnson, was one of my good friends since primary school. “Why didn’t you    50    me until now? Was it   51    to do that? Explain to me the reason,” he said,     52    me a cup of hot coffee. Both of us were overjoyed to see each other and we    53   the whole afternoon talking about things and persons that we   54    at school. John asked me to give him some advice about   55    to enlarge his present business and he was entirely happy about my   56   . To my great surprise, he offered me a    57   which didn’t need much experience because I was not    58    with this field but the pay l got was much more than   59    . The moment I saw my   60  , the sum of money given by the company, I cried for the first time — that was the first time for me to do so since I grew up.

Adventure is in my blood. And I had been considering how I was going to celebrate my high school graduation. I didn’t just want a small    41    in the backyard. I started thinking about doing a solo(独自的)      42    somewhere out of the ordinary. I took out    43    and drew the 1,500-mile route along which I would be      44    from the northernmost point m Norway to the southernmost section of Sweden. When I    45    my plans with my dad，he    46    as I thought he would. Because I get my adventurous    47    from him，he was all for it.

I had only been away from my    48    three days now, but there was all inner    49    going on inside of me. Part of me was homesick and doubting whether I    50    could make it. The other part of me was ready to    51    to myself and my family that I could do it by myself.

On the road，I met another    52    who was quite a bit older than I was. He had stated his journey    53      by bike at the southern part of Norway and had just finished. I could tell he had a great sense of    54    . It encouraged me not to    55    .

As I listened to my    56    artists on my MP4 player, I pedalled(踩踏板)with my feet. There was    57    around me for miles.    58    ，that wasn’t entirely true. There were mosquitoes—millions of them. My arms were so dotted with    59    that they looked like a topographical map(地形图). But，however    60    it would be，nothing could stop my advance towards the destination. As you know, adventure is in my blood.

Everyone hates to wait in lines. We get that anxious feeling that our precious life is slipping away while we ’ re doing something so meaningless. But it ’ s not always the length of the wait we find so un- bearable.SomepeoplecampoutsideApplestoresforanentirenightjusttogettheirhandsonthelatest product. But waiting 10 minutes in a grocery store just to buy a drink? Forget it.

Our behavior when waiting is only partly decided by the length of the wait. “Often the psychology of queuing is more important than the statistics of the wait itself，” notes the MIT researcher Richard Larson.

One apparent aspect of queuing psychology is that we get bored when we wait in line. This issue is solved in many ways， from magazines in hospital waiting rooms to mirrors in elevators so that we can check our appearance.

We really hate it when we expect a short wait and then get a long one. But studies show that we are much more patient when we are given an idea of how long we ’ 11 be waiting.

Walt Disney Co knows this better than anyone else. It posts estimated waiting times for attractions in its theme parks. But according to Larson，these times are overestimated so that visitors get to the front of the queue more quickly than they expect. It keeps them happy.

But perhaps the biggest influence on our feelings about waiting in a line has to do with our sense of fairness. When it comes to queues， the universally acknowledged standard is first come， first served. Any departure from this principle is regarded as unfair and can lead to violent queue anger.

You’ve probably experienced mild queue anger yourself in fast food restaurants，watching people in the other line zoom ahead of you，cursing yourself for having chosen the “wrong” line. In order to solve this problem，the serpentine(蛇形）line was invented. The serpentine line guides all customers into one big snaking queue，separated by ropes or barriers. When you reach the head of the queue，you are di­rected to the next available server，or teller，or customs official. The serpentine line isn’t always faster than multi-lines before an array(排）of cash registers. But it offers important comfort： you absolutely never have to see someone arrive after you and get served before you.

In life ，waiting is inevitable. But a better understanding of the psychology of waiting can help make it a bit more bearable. When all else fails，bring a book or a smartphone will also do.

Surviving Hurricane Sandy

Natalie Doan,14, has always felt lucky to live in Rockaway, New York. Living just a few blocks from the beach, Natalie can see the ocean and hear the wave from her house. “It’s the ocean that makes Rockaway so special,” she says.

On October 29, 2012, that ocean turned fierce. That night, Hurricane Sandy attacked the East Coast, and Rockaway was hit especially hard. Fortunately, Natalie’s family escaped to Brooklyn shortly before the city’s bridge closed.

When they returned to Rockaway the next day, they found their neighborhood in ruins. Many of Natalie’s friends had lost their homes and were living far away. All around her, people were suffering, especially the elderly. Natalie’s school was so damaged that she had to temporarily attend a school in Brooklyn.

In the following few days, the men and women helping Rockaway recover inspired Natalie. Volunteers came with carloads of donated clothing and toys. Neighbors devoted their spare time to helping others rebuild. Teenagers climbed dozens of flights of stairs to deliver water and food to elderly people trapped in powerless high-rise buildings.

“My mom tells me that I can’t control what happens to me,” Natalie says. “but I can always choose how I deal with it.”

Natalie’s choice was to help.

She created a website page matching survivors in need with donors who wanted to help. Natalie posted introduction about a boy named Patrick, who lost his baseball card collecting when his house burned down. Within days, Patrick’s collection was replaced.

In the coming months, her website page helped lots of kids: Christopher, who received a new basketball; Charlie, who got a new keyboard. Natalie also worked with other organizations to bring much-need supplies to Rockaway. Her efforts made her a famous person. Last April, she was invited to the White House and honored as a Hurricane Sandy Champion of Change.

Today, the scars(创痕)of destruction are still seen in Rockaway, but hope is in the air. The streets are clear, and many homes have been rebuilt. “I can’t imagine living anywhere but Rockaway,” Natalie declares. “My neighborhood will be back, even stronger than before.”

24.When Natalie returned to Rockaway after the hurricane ,she found______.

A. some friends had lost their lives        B. her neighborhood was destroyed

C. her school had moved to Brooklyn      D. the elderly were free from suffering

25.According to paragraph4,who inspired Natalie most?

A. The people helping Rockaway rebuild

B. The people trapped in high rise building

C. The volunteers donating money to survivors

D. Local teenagers bringing clothing to elderly people

26.How did Natalie help the survivors?

A. She gave her toys to the kids

B. She took care of younger children

C. She called on the White House to help

D. She built an information sharing platform

A. Little people can make a big difference      B.A friend in need is a friend indeed

C. East or West, home is best                 D. Technology is power

When 7-year-old Warren Buffett said,“I will be the richest man one day,” his friends made fun of his “daydreaming”. But ever since then the little boy has set about learning how to make money by selling drinks, delivering newspapers and buying stocks. The American had already earned $9,000 (equal to $90,000 today) by the time he graduated from high school.

   And this month the 78-year-old man, who earned his fortune by making a lot of sound investment in the stock market, took the place of Microsoft founder, Bill Gates, as the world’s richest man. Gates’ worth declined $1.5 billion to $55.5 billion in 33 days after the recent financial storm, according to Forbes Magazine.

   Buffett, the only son of a stockbroker, was ready to think outside the box to develop his business from a very early age. At 8, he went to golf courses collecting and selling the used balls. At 11 when he sold soda pop door-to-door with a friend, the pair collected lids on streets to judge which flavor was the most popular.

   As a paper boy during high school, Buffett delivered two competitor papers, so that even when customers canceled one of the subscriptions, he could still make a profit from the other. With his paper delivery savings, Buffett bought 162,000 square meters of farmland and collected rent. Young Buffett stepped into the stock market at 11 but earned only $5. The experience taught him one of the virtues in investing, patience.

   After graduating from university, Buffett started his venture with stocks with his childhood earnings and money from friends. He researched the stocks and just bought those of solid companies that were undervalued and inexpensive at the time. By sticking to companies such as American Express and Coca-Cola, Buffett has become rich.

   “Learning is important to Buffett’s success. He is a learning machine who can spend his entire day reading. He keeps learning from books, street smarts and investigation, from both success and failure. In this way, he over-achieved his aptitude (能力).” said Charlie Munger, his longtime business partner. 

16. The passage is mainly about ___________.

A. why Buffett took the place of Bill Gates as the world’s richest man

B. what effect Buffett’s childhood experiences had on his success

C. how Buffett earned his fortune and achieved his aptitude

D. what Buffett dreamt about when he was a child

C He achieved great success on stepping into the stock market.

D He bought 162,000 square meters of farmland by selling soda pop.

18. How did Buffett behave at the stock market?

A. He often prefers some inexpensive stocks.

B. He will buy the stock whose price is lower than its value.

C. He always borrows money from his friends to buy stocks.

D. He will sell the stock if its price doesn’t go up.

19. Which is the main factor that determines Buffett’s success?

A.  His education.                   B. His family background.

C.  His desire to learn.                D. His cooperation with his partner.

20. What can we infer from the passage?

A. Buffett is an immediate success in the stock market.

B. Buffett and Gates are business partners.

C. His father helped him a lot in his business.

D. Buffett has a good sense of business.

Want a glance of the future of health care? Take a look at the way the various networks of people about patient care are being connected to one another, and how this new connectivity is being exploited to deliver medicine to the patient —no matter where he or she may be.

Online doctors offering advice based on normal symptoms are the most obvious example. Increasingly, however, remote diagnosis(远程诊断) will be based on real physiological data(生理数据) from the actual patient. A group from the University of Kentucky has shown that by using personal data assistance plus a mobile phone, it is perfectly practical to send a patient’s important signs over the telephone. With this kind of equipment, the cry asking whether there was a doctor in the house could well be a thing of the past.

Other medical technology groups are working on applying telemedicine to rural (countryside) care. And at least one team wants to use telemedicine as a tool for disaster need—especially after earthquakes. On the whole, the trend is towards providing global access to medical data and experts’ opinions.

But there is one problem. Bandwidth(宽带) is the limiting factor for sending complex medical pictures around the world — CT photos being one of the biggest bandwidth users. Communication satellites may be able to deal with the short-term needs during disasters, such as earthquakes or wars. But medicine is looking towards both the second-generation Internet and third-generation mobile phones for the future of remote medical service.

Doctors have met to discuss computer-based tools for medical diagnosis, training and telemedicine. With the falling price of broadband communications, the new technologies should start a new time when telemedicine and the sharing of medical information, experts’ opinions and diagnosis are common.

63. The writer chiefly talks about _______.

    A. the use of telemedicine             B. the on-lined doctors

    C. medical care and treatment            D. communication improvement

64. The basis of remote diagnosis will be _______.

    A. personal data assistance 

    B. some words of a patient

    C. real physiological information

    D. medical pictures from the Internet

65. Which of the following statements is true according to the text？

    A. Patients don’t need doctors in hospitals any more.

    B. It is impossible to send a patient’s signs over the telephone.

    C. Many teams use telemedicine dealing with disasters now.

    D. Broadband communications will become cheaper in the future.

66. The “problem” in the fourth paragraph refers to the fact that _______.

    A. bandwidth isn’t big enough to send complex medical pictures

    B. the second-generation of Internet has not become popular yet

    C. communication satellites can only deal with short-term needs

    D. there is not enough equipment for spreading the medical care
