21、Tara: Nicole, I have a problem.

Nicole: What kind of problem?

Tara: I have a job interview tomorrow, and I heard that the boss will ask to see my Facebook profile. I’m not comfortable with that.

Nicole: That’s illegal in some countries, like Canada. Can you refuse?

Tara: I want to, but I’m afraid that if I do, I won’t get the job!

Nicole: I guess I see the boss’s point. Looking at a candidate’s Facebook page will tell him a lot about the person’s life and personality.

Tara: That’s true. Most of my life is on Facebook. My profile could tell him about my hobbies, my interests and what my friends think of me. I find the idea of showing a boss that much personal information disturbing.

Nicole: Companies run background checks on possible employees all the time. And this is just another way for him to see if you’re trustworthy. Besides, I’ve seen your Facebook page, and you don’t have anything to hide.

Tara: Maybe not, but my friends might still post things on my Facebook page that make me look bad.

Nicole: I think the boss will probably realize the differences between your posts and your friends’ posts.

Tara: He might, but I’m also worried that something the boss sees on Facebook could be misleading. For example, I wore a really crazy costume to my friend’s party last week. I wouldn’t want him to think I always do strange things like that.

Nicole: Yeah, but I don’t think the boss would assume that one picture shows how you always act. I’m sure he’ll be pretty cautious about drawing conclusions too quickly based on Facebook.

【1】How does Tara find the idea of showing a boss that much personal information?

A．She thinks it great trouble.

B．She has decided to refuse it.

C．She is quite pleased with it.

D．She has no idea of it.

A．Nicole wants to help Tara get more reasons why the boss did so.

B．Nicole has just understood the boss’s real purpose.

23、My name is Wang Qiang. I am nine years old. I came to America with my mum, dad and little brother from Shanghai, China two years ago. It was difficult to leave behind my friends, but the most difficult thing was learning a new language — English.

Over the last two years, I've got to understand most of the words my friends speak. But I was still often at a loss. And sometimes the words I speak sound quite different.

I think it would be okay if all I had to do was learn to speak English. But I had to learn reading and writing. In English, one letter can make many different sounds.Take the letter C for example (例子). If C is the first letter of a word like “cat”, its pronunciation is “k”, but when it is the first letter of a word like “centre”, its pronunciation is “s”. And think about W. If it is the first letter of a word like “white”, its pronunciation is “w”, but when it's the first letter of a word like “write”, it doesn't make any sound. How can I remember all of these?

Luckily, with the help of my teachers and classmates, I keep getting better. I'm sure someday I will speak English as well as them.

【1】Wang Qiang went to America at the age of ________.

A．six

B．seven

C．eight

【2】What do the underlined words “at a loss” in Paragraph 2 mean in Chinese?

A．委屈

B．愤怒

C．困惑

【3】About speaking English, Wang Qiang ________.

A．doesn't think it's too difficult

B．doesn't need others' help

C．thinks it's interesting

【4】By giving examples in Paragraph 3, Wang Qiang wants to tell us that ________.

A．different letters in English can make the same sound

B．one letter in English can make different sounds

C．C and W are important letters in English

【5】The passage mainly tells a story of ________.

C．learning English

24、   Some people like to get up early, but some do not. In fact, it is really good for us to get up early every day. Maybe those who don’t like getting up early will not believe this, but it is true. Scientists made a survey（调查）in about one thousand people, and then they found that early rising people had less disease than late rising people, and early rising people also looked healthier than late rising people, and so on.

So we may know early rising is helpful in more than one way. Firstly, it helps to keep us healthy. We all need fresh air. And air is the freshest early in the morning. Besides, it is useful to do morning exercises.

Secondly, early rising helps us in our studies. In the morning we learn more quickly and find it easier to understand what we learn.

Thirdly, early rising can give us a plan of our work for the day. We cannot work well without a good plan.

Fourthly, early rising gives us enough time to get ready for our work, such as to wash our hands and faces and eat our breakfast.

Late risers may find it difficult to form the habit of early rising. They have to make an effort（努力）to do so. As the English proverb（谚语）says, “Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.”

【1】We may read this passage in a  ________ magazine.

A.health B.sports C.music D.travel

【2】Air is the freshest  ________ according to the passage.

A.in the morning B.in the afternoon C.in the evening D.all day

【3】Which of the following is NOT the result of early rising?

A.People can get ready for their work. B.People can get fresh air.

C.People can learn things more quickly and better. D.People can have enough food for breakfast.

【4】If a man always likes to get up late, it’s  ________for him to form the habit of getting up early.

A.easy B.difficult C.happy D.sad

25、阅读下面短文，根据语境、音标、首字母或汉语的提示，在每个空格内填入一个适当的单词，使短文意思完整、行文连贯。

Life is no easy, so I’d like to say “No matter what happens, believe in yourself.”

When I was a 【1】/ jʌŋ / boy, I was so shy that I never talked to anyone. My classmates often laughed at me. I was sad, 【2】 could do nothing. Later, something happened and 【3】(change) my life. It was an English speech contest. My mother asked me to 【4】 part in it. What a terrible idea. It meant I had to speak in 【5】/’ pʌblɪk /. “Come on boy. Believe in yourself. You are sure to win,” my mother said. Then my mother and I talked 【6】 many different topics. At last, I chose the topic, “believe in yourself”. I practiced it over 100 times, with my mother's great love, I did 【7】 in the contest. I won the first place, I 【8】 (hear) the cheers from the teachers and students. My mother 【9】 excited, too. Since then , no matter what I do, I try to tell myself to be confident, and I will beat myself, I live 【10】(happy) now.
