　　I've been living in the country for more than 10 years. It means quietness, privacy, harmony and peace for me.
　　Living in the country requires an active lifestyle. It involves activities like doing daily chores, preparing firewood for winter heating, feeding animals including pets and livestock, tending the garden, or securing fences, etc. For me, the most attractive activities are fishing, hunting and hiking. I enjoy seeing what nature has to offer everyday through a simple walk down the little trail, or a relaxing drive along the country road with patches of green grass ornamented with wildlife sightings of birds, moose, bears, deer, etc.
　　Living the country life helps us appreciate some of the simpler things, things that make us feel good about ourselves and the world. It may be just a get together on a Saturday at the local farmers market, or a project or a problem that the community might pull together to help solve. I have participated in a few community projects, like dealing with out-of-control grass fires, a roof that collapsed from a large snow fall, or even helping a recent widow with fire wood for the winter. Sometimes I am surprised by how much benefit we receive from helping others and as for this community I can’t say enough.
　　I really enjoy living the country life. I know it’s not for everyone, but I know it's for me.
　　1. The author has lived in the countryside for more than a decade, and he/she loves living there.
　　2. Living in the country is not busy at all.
　　3. The author takes a walk or drives along country roads almost every day.
　　4. People living in the country usually go shopping every Saturday.
　　5. According to the author, nobody dislikes countryside life.

　　It can be really frustrating (使人沮丧的) for an overweight person to go to a gym and work out with a positive attitude. All one has to do is walk by almost any nice gym and notice all the healthy, sweating, “skinny” members. Sometimes they stare at those of us who are, well, zaftig. It is easy to see the judgment behind their eyes. Who wants to put up with that?
　　Many people are self-conscious of their bodies and feel isolated when joining workout classes of while exercising, especially if they are larger than most of the others in the group. Now the fitness industry is finally paying attention. Popular gyms are catering (迎合) to overweight and weight conscious customers by dedicating areas where the “skinny” people are not allowed.
　　There are even gyms or programs that require members to be at least 50 pounds overweight to participate.
　　Trainers recommend functional fitness as a practical goal, rather than six-pack abs(六块腹肌). They often use text messages to stay in touch with customers.
　　Often at these specialized gyms, the trainers are overweight themselves, or working on their own weight goals, and this can help those people with anxiety caused by poor body image. The equipment has been designed for use by larger people. Wider seats, more cushioning, no mirrors, and tinted (有色的) windows for privacy, are all important changes.
Hopefully these types of gyms will successfully grow in numbers in the future. The idea is a very simple and potentially popular one. If it helps those of us who are bigger exercise more and improve our fitness level, it's a step in the right direction.
　　1. The word zaftig in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to .
　　A. fat
　　B. healthy
　　C. friendly
　　2. We can infer from the first two paragraphs that .
　　A. most large gym chains really don't want members to show up frequently
　　B. overweight people are often frustrated and pushed away by traditional gym industry
　　C. regular gyms don't accept overweight people to participate in their programs
　　3. What is the training goal in the gyms catering to overweight members?
　　A. To achieve functional fitness.
　　B. To build six-pack abs.
　　C. To look like a fitness model.
　　4. As for the gyms catering to overweight members, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?
　　A. The machines are designed for larger people.
　　B. Tinted windows are used to ensure extra privacy.
　　C. There are large mirrors on the walls.
　　5. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
　　A. Improving Women's Self-confidence through Exercises.
　　B. The traditional Gym Industry Is Losing Its Customers.
　　C. Specialized Gyms Designed for Overweight People.

　　Babies who are breast-fed may be more likely to be successful in life, a new study published Tuesday suggests. The study followed more than 3,000 babies into adulthood in Brazil. The researchers found those who were breast-fed scored slightly higher in intelligence tests in their 30s, stayed in school longer and earned more money than those who were given formula（配方奶粉）.
　　“Breast-feeding not only has short-term benefits, but also breast-feeding has long-term benefits, ” says Bernardo Lessa Horta of the Federal University of Pelotas in Brazil, who led the study being published in The Lancet Global Health.
　　Doctors have long known that breast-feeding can be good for a baby's health. This is especially true in poor countries, where water can be contaminated. For instance, a baby given formula in developing countries is 14 times more likely to die in the first six months than one who's breast-fed. In the U.S., some research has suggested that breast-feeding may raise a baby's IQ（智商）by a few points. But a recent study with siblings（兄弟姐妹）found little advantage to breast-feeding.
　　Horta says these previous studies didn't follow children into adulthood to see if breast-feeding had long-term effects. So Horta analyzed data collected from 3,493 volunteers he and his colleagues have been following since birth. They are now in their 30s. First, the researchers gave the subjects IQ tests. Those who were breast-fed for 12 months or more had IQ test scores that were 3.76 points higher than those who were breast-fed for less than one month, the team found.
　　When Horta and his colleagues looked at how much education the subjects had gotten and how much money they were making, they also found a clear difference: Those who were breast-fed the longest stayed in school for about an extra year and had monthly salaries that were about a third higher.
　　1. From the passage, we learn that Horta .
　　A. is from Brazil
　　B. conducts his research in the U.S.
　　C. has 30 researchers on his team
　　2. Which of the following about those who were breast-fed is NOT mentioned?
　　A. They stayed longer in school
　　B. They were happier
　　C. They were smarter
　　3. Which of the following is TRUE?
　　A. Doctors don't understand the benefits of breast-feeding.
　　B. Horta is concerned with water contamination in poor countries.
　　C. Horta's research project lasted about 30 years
　　4. The word contaminated in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to .
　　A. finished
　　B. interested
　　C. polluted
　　5. Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?
　　A. Researchers Have Pointed Out the Disadvantages of Breast-feeding
　　B. Researchers Have Found Out the Shortcomings of Formula
　　C. Breast-feeding Improves Chances of Success

问题 30: 6. 正误判断题
　　All communication begins with the sender and ends with the receiver. The sender is responsible for successful conveyance. The sender's personality, beliefs, cultural and educational background all influence the message and it is important for the sender to be aware of this as he or she is encoding the message. Simply put, encoding is translating information into symbols that represent the ideas or concepts of the message that needs sending. These symbols are usually words in written or spoken form. To ensure successful communication, the sender should know as much about his or her audience – the receiver – as possible in order to focus and support the encoding process.
　　In addition to this awareness of self and encoding, the sender must choose the proper channel for conveying the message. Using the wrong channel may result in miscommunication. Like the sender, receivers are influenced by internal factors: their personality, their receptivity to the message or their relationship to the sender. Additionally, their current feelings, mood, or state of mind can affect a message. Once the message moves through the channel, the receiver then decodes it. The receiver uses his or her own experience and the context of the message to interpret its meaning.
　　Feedback is the return message from the receiver to the sender. It is feedback that enables the sender to know whether the message was received successfully or not. Therefore it is essential to the communication process.
　　This process, though very common, is fraught with potential breakdown at every turn. Spoken or written language is inherently easy to misinterpret. In conclusion, effective and successful Communication takes place when the message is successfully received and the receiver provides the sender with desirable feedback.
　　1. The sender's gender also influences the message.
　　2. Encoding is a process that translating information into symbols which serve as the ideas or concepts of the message that will be sent later.
　　3. These symbols are usually words and sentences in written form.
　　4. Channel is not crucial for conveying the message.
　　5. Feedbacks enable the sender to know whether the receiver has received the message successfully or not.

问题 36: 6. 选择题
　　Charity is a concept which dates back to Biblical times, when helping the poor was something that rich people basically did to make themselves feel good. Social work has its roots in charity, as it originally began around the time of the industrial revolution when there were many poor people and society was seeking a way of dealing with the poor and social problems. Although social work began as charity work, it has expanded a lot and needs to be seen from a completely different perspective.
　　Modern-day social work deals not only with poverty and the subsequent problems, but also with the problems arising from various types of “social fear” (“social phobias”) and discrimination such as sexism, racism, and discrimination against an individual due to his age, or mental or physical disabilities. Social workers deal with the consequences of these discriminations as well as consequences that arise from sexual abuse, drug abuse, and various other problems.
　　Social work provides an important service to society. Individuals and families in need of help are the focus of it, and are re　ferred to as clients. Social workers help clients live a productive life in their own community. In order to reach this goal, they often enlist the assistance of family members, relatives, local religious leaders, and other influential members of the community. Although institutionalization may be necessary at times, it is a temporary solution. Social workers usually serve in the front line, and reach out to the clients soon after problems occur. The goal is to help clients return to normal life in a natural setting.
　　1. The charity originally means to .
　　A. help the poor that makes the rich feel good.
　　B. help clients return to normal life.
　　C. serve the whole society.
　　2. When does social work begin?
　　A. around the time of the industrial revolution
　　B. Biblical times
　　C. modern time
　　3. Modern-day social work deals with the following problems except ?
　　A. poverty
　　B. racism
　　C. education
　　4. In order to help clients live a productive life, social workers can turn to the assistance of .
　　A. government
　　B. family members
　　C. businessmen
　　5. Which statement about social work is NOT True?
　　A. Social work roots from charity.
　　B. Social work deals not only with poverty and the subsequent problems, but also with various social fear and discrimination.
　　C. Social work is that the rich people want to help the poor people.

问题 42: 6. 选择题
　　Imagine a school that expected its students to become literate(有读写能力的) without any formal instruction. Most parents would be alarmed by such an approach, which would leave their children confused and with gaps in their understanding. This however has been the philosophy on character development in many of our schools. Why is the development of character seen as somehow different from the other skills that we teach?
　　Of course there will always be learning by osmosis(耳濡目染)in any school, but as a teacher and primary school head I have found that a child's moral literacy is strengthened when they acquire the building blocks of good character such as consideration, courage and honor: qualities which are commonly known as virtue(美德).
　　I personally find that exploring a virtue over a two-week period provides a simple and effective program that allows for the creative input of both teacher and student and a chance for the virtue to embed(使融入)itself. Once a lesson on a virtue such as honesty has been completed we need to allow time for children to practice this concept just as would be the case with fractions or verbs. Allowing children to role play a situation such as making up excuses to cover a mistake can be enormously interesting, and the drama can be frozen allowing the characters to be questioned about their feelings and motives. It's also a safe way for children to experience for themselves how a lie usually goes out of control.
　　Our role as educators is also to look for opportunities to help our students as they attempt to strengthen their characters. When something goes wrong we guide the young person to the virtue that will prevent it from happening again. For instance, when am student thoughtlessly disturbs the calm atmosphere of the library, instead of a response such as, "that was really disrespectful and selfish of you!" we draw out from them the required virtue: "When you're walking through the library, what virtues do you need to use?"
　　1. Which of the following is the main idea of this passage?
　　A. Teaching morals and values has been a frequently discussed topic in the past few years.
　　B. The author and his staff embed virtues into lessons and school life to encourage character development in children.
　　C. Kids throughout the population face the same needs, the same challenges, and the same realities in their lives.
　　2. We can infer from the first paragraph that .
　　A. there tends to be disagreement about what character education is
　　B. most parents are not satisfied with the teaching methods adopted in schools
　　C. the approach to character education is generally considered different from the approaches to other skills
　　3. The word "philosophy" in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to .
　　A. study
　　B. subject
　　C. viewpoint
　　4. The author is a .
　　A. teacher
　　B. librarian
　　C. reporter
　　5. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as a way to build character in children?
　　A. Story readings and discussions.
　　B. Osmosis.
　　C. Taking every opportunity to teach character.

Alternative Legal Billing – Win Strategies
　　Hourly billing is the best way to be charged for legal services. About 95 percent of lawyers still perform their legal work on an hourly basis. If you want something better than the old “bill by the hour” deal, try presenting one of these billing structures.
Project billing for routine issues
　　If your legal needs include large but repetitive tasks, consider a flat-fee approach. Once you get a project billing estimate, don't hesitate to shop around to compare prices and services with other law firms. A firm may provide a better deal if it expects future work from your company.
Results-oriented options
　　“Pay-according-to-success” is one choice. It considers fees based on the outcome of the case and the performance of your counsel. Contingency fees turn the matter into a shared risk or shared encouragement, making the law firm your business partner, not just representation.
Multi-layered tasks
　　If you're shopping for a firm for actual legal work involving a number of legal specialties, consider using blended hourly fees. The firm calculates in advance an “average” rate based on the anticipated time each lawyer spends on the matter.
　　This arrangement helps the client to avoid paying a senior partner's hourly rate for research that should be conducted by a junior associate.
　　Legal “Insurance”
　　The contract fee allows the client to pick up the phone and talk to the lawyer without needing to eye the clock. This approach works like a legal insurance policy. It encourages companies to contact their counsel on non-litigation, non-crisis matters, and to save money in the long run by engaging in more preventive legal action.

　　1. is the best way to be charged for legal services.
　　A. Results-oriented billing
　　B. Hourly billing
　　C. Flat-fee billing
　　2. A flat-fee approach .
　　A. is suitable for repetitive tasks
　　B. is useless
　　C. is the best choice.
　　3. make the law firm share your risk and encouragement.
　　A. Contract fees
　　B. Blended hourly fees
　　C. Contingency fees
　　4. Legal work involving a number of legal specialties should consider using .
　　A. blended hourly fees
　　B. insurance fees
　　C. hourly fees
　　5. You have to eye the clock when you talk to the lawyer when you choose .
　　A. legal “Insurance”
　　B. the old “bill by the hour” deal
　　C. a flat-fee approach
