21、About a month after I joined Facebook, I got a call from Lori Goler, a highly regarded senior director of marketing at eBay. She made it clear this was a business call. “I want to apply to work with you at Facebook,” she said. “Instead of recommending myself, I want to ask you: What is your biggest problem, and how can I solve it?”

  My jaw hit the floor. I had hired thousands of people over the previous decade and no one had ever said anything remotely like that. People usually focus on finding the right role for themselves, with the implication that their skills will help the company. Lori put Facebook’s needs front and center. It was a killer approach. I responded, “Recruiting is my biggest problem. And, yes, you can solve it.”

  Lori never dreamed she would work in recruiting, but she jumped in. She even agreed to trade earnings for acquiring new skills in a new field. Lori did a great job running recruiting and within months was promoted to her current job, leading People@Facebook.

  The most common metaphor for careers is a ladder, but this concept no longer applies to most workers. As of 2010, the average American had eleven jobs from the ages of eighteen to forty-six alone. Lori often quotes Pattie Sellers, who came up with a much better metaphor: “Careers are a jungle gym, not a ladder.”

  As Lori describes it, there’s only one way to get to the top of a ladder, but there are many ways to get to the top of a jungle gym. The jungle gym model benefits everyone, but especially women who might be starting careers, switching careers, getting blocked by external barriers, or reentering the workforce after taking time off. The ability to create a unique path with occasional dips, detours (弯路), and even dead ends presents great views of many people, not just those at the top. On a ladder, most climbers are stuck staring at the butt of the person above.

【1】Why did Lori make the call?

A. She helped Facebook to solve the biggest problem.

B. She wanted to make a business deal with Facebook.

C. She tried to ask for a pay rise in Facebook.

D. She wanted to become an employee in Facebook.

【2】What impressed “I” by Lori?

A. Lori was good at running recruiting.

B. Lori attached great importance to Facebook’s needs.

C. Lori jumped in Facebook with no adequate experience.

D. Lori was skilled in marketing at eBay.

【3】What can we infer from the passage?

A. Now all people don’t tend to climb the ladder.

B. None on the ladder can enjoy the great views.

C. Jungle gyms offer limited exploration for employees.

D. A pregnant woman, jobless, benefits little from the jungle gyms.

【4】What is the best title of the passage?

A. It’s a Jungle Gym, Not a Ladder.

B. Facebook’s Biggest Problem.

C. Applying for a Job in Facebook.

D. A Jungle Gym is Better than a Ladder.

D.SWIM WITH THE HUMPBACKS OF TONGA.

23、On a bright early summer morning, many young swimmers gather at a local swimming pool in the state of Maryland. They are members of a competitive summer swim team, and that’s a regular part of their daily life. As they train and cut seconds off their times, which makes them closer to the championship in the following large-scale (大规模的) competitions, they are getting lots of physical exercise and vitamin D from the sun. However, the benefits of belonging to a sports team are not just honor or health related. You can learn useful life skills.

Paul Waas, coach of the swim team, explains, “The discipline (自制力) comes into play when you’re talking about concentrating on the details that your coaches are saying as it makes you faster rather than going up and down the pool the same way you have every time. When you focus on what you’re doing right and what you can do better, then you’ll see the improvement.”

Besides, there is also responsibility, goals and workings within a group. Again, here is Coach Waas. “It’s really great! It’s so fun to watch from year to year. I’ve had kids who as 7-year-olds on the team could barely pay attention in practice and were only interested in who was going first. Now they’ve come back as 8-year-olds, having set some goals and having things that they want to achieve. These skills can help them a lot.”

But playing the sports is not without harm. Some can be hard on the body. Young athletes suffer serious injuries that follow them into adulthood. Coach Waas says that in fact, swimming is different from most others. First, it poses a lower risk of injury. The second one relates to how swim teams are structured. Actually, children are not the only ones who can benefit. Adults can also benefit from team sports.

【1】Why do the swimmers gather at a swimming pool in the early morning?

A．To obtain vitamin D from the sun.

B．To build practical skills for future.

C．To join in a large-scale competitive.

D．To carry out their routine practice.

【2】What do Paul Waas’ words imply in paragraph 2?

A．Swimmers should concentrate on details.

B．Members get disciplined and focused in the team.

C．Coaches play a key role in layers’ improvement.

D．Most swimmers enjoy sinning in the same way.

【3】What happens to the kids after a year’s training?

A．They are more aware of what to do.

B．They pay less attention to training.

C．They devote more time to practice.

D．They care more about who goes first.

【4】What does the author want to convey in the text?

A．Exercise benefits everyone.

B．Swimming is better than other sports.

C．Team sports teach life lessons.

D．Physical exercise should be a habit.

24、   It's said that in China millions of legal cases are now being decided by "internet courts" that do not require citizens to appear in court.

The "smart court" includes non-human judges powered by artificial intelligence, or AI. People seeking legal action can register their case on the internet. They can then take part in a digital court hearing. The system gives users the chance to communicate and receive court decisions by text or through major messaging services. Users completed more than 3.1 million legal activities through the court system from March to October in 2019, China's official Xinhua news agency reported.

China's first internet court was established in the eastern city of Hangzhou in 2017. Hangzhou is a center for major Chinese technology companies. Judicial officials recently invited reporters to the Hangzhou Internet Court to see how it operates. In one demonstration, citizens used video messaging to communicate with virtual, Al-powered judges.

"Does the defendant have any objection to the nature of the judicial block-chain （区块链） evidence submitted by the plaintiff 原告）?” a virtual judge asked during a pre-trial meeting. The non-human judge was represented in the system by an image of a man wearing a black robe. "No objection," the human plaintiff answered.

A Hangzhou court official told China's state-run CGTN television that the internet court system operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It is designed to ease the workload of humans and improve the speed and effectiveness of the legal process. Court officials say that even though virtual judges are used, human judges observe the process and can make major rulings.

The internet court in Hangzhou only deals with cases involving legal disputes over digital matters. These include internet trade issues, copyright cases and disputes over online product sales. Digital court cases in China have seen a sharp increase in recent years, as the number of mobile payments and internet-based businesses has grown. The growth is tied to China's huge number of internet users --- about 850 million.

After establishing the court in Hangzhou, China launched similar operations in the cities of Beijing and Guangzhou.

【1】What can we infer about the internet court?

A.Human judges have played little role in the internet court.

B.Citizens can only place their cases on file on weekdays.

C.It will become a helper for the court system.

D.It has enjoyed great popularity all over China.

【2】How do people seeking legal action get court decisions according to Paragraph 2 ?

A.By Al-powered judges. B.By receiving text messages.

C.By attending a court hearing. D.By registering the cases on the internet.

【3】Why are there more digital court cases in China now?

A.Because there is a growing tendency in internet-based businesses.

B.Because it is efficient to deal with cases in the internet court.

C.Because legal disputes can only be handled in the internet court.

D.Because China has the perfect digital court system.

【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?

A.The Future of the China's Justice. B.The Future Master of The Internet Court.

C.The Growth of Digital Court Cases. D.The Rise of China's "Internet Courts5.

26、阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，便之构成一个完整的故事。

Yoghurt

It was a rough week. The price of oil skyrocketed as the temperature dropped sharply in Maine. We were looking at a high of eight degrees that week, and I had missed three days of work so my paycheck was going to be lower than normal. I was stressed, to say the least. I shopped strategically, looking for every possible way to cut down expenses so I could buy groceries and keep the house warm.

My eight-year-old son didn’t understand when I told him we were struggling that week. He wanted a special kind of yoghurt, but I didn’t have the extra three dollars to buy it for him. It was the kind of yoghurt with a cartoon kid riding a skateboard on the front of the box, and a mere two spoonfuls in each cup. It was the kind of product that wastes a parent’s money and makes me hate advertising.

I felt guilty as a parent when those big eyes looked at me with confusion, as if to say, “It’s just yoghurt. What’s the big deal?” So I found a way. I put something back as single mothers often do. He got his yoghurt.

On the way driving back from the grocery store, I noticed a homeless man holding a sign by the side of the road. My heart hurt, and I tried not to look at him. I watched people stay away from him on the street and walk by without even meeting his eyes. My son didn’t seem to care much, either. I looked at the man closely then-bare hands holding a piece of cardboard, snot (鼻涕) frozen to his face, a worn-out jacket. And there I was struggling because I had to buy oil and groceries. But I decided to help. I pulled over to the man and handed him a five-dollar bill.
