Coming home from school that dark winter day so long ago, I was filled with excitement of having the weekend off. But I was 36 into stillness by what I saw. Mother, seated at the far end of the sofa, was 37 , with the second-hand green typewriter on the table. She told me that she couldn't 38fast and then she was out of work. My shock and embarrassment at finding Mother in tears was a perfect proof of how 39I understood the pressure on her. Sitting beside her on the sofa, I began very slowly to understand. "I guess we all have to40somelhing," Mother said quietly. I could41her pain and the tension of42 the strong feeling that were interrupted by my 43 . Suddenly, something inside me lit up. I reached out and put my arms around her. She broke then. She put her face 44 my shoulder and sobbed. I held her45and didn't try to talk. I knew I was doing what I should,what I could and that was 46 . At that moment, feeling Mother's47with feeling, I understood for the first time her being easy to 48 . She was still my mother,49 she was something 50 :a person like me, capable of fear, 51and failure.

A week later Mother took a job selling dry goods at half the salary the radio station 53.

"It's a job I can do, though. "She said simply. But the evening practice on the green typewriter continued. I had a very 54 feeling now when I passed her door at night and heard her 55away across the paper. I knew there was something more going on in there than a woman learning to type.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

A

Nowadays more and more foreign enterprises and companies are no longer relying on interviews for employment. Years of studying interviewing have made it clear that it is not a very objective(客观的) process. Personnel officers often hire the person they like best, or even the one they think most physically attractive. Looking good is no guarantee (保证) of doing the job well, however. Uglies or those who are aesthetically (审美地) challenged,lose heart.

To get a more objective view,many companies are also using psychological tests to hire both for relatively daily jobs and for positions at senior levels of management, it is impossible to say how many employers use tests, but estimates of test sales in the UK for 2004 were over &1.5 million.

The basic reason employers use tests is clear: tests claim(声称) to be scientific and objective. A large body of research has shown that interviews by themselves are not very reliable as a method of selection. People's judgements are often very subjective: whether they like the look of someone counts for more than almost anything else. But reliable and valid(有效的) effective tests can offer rapid and more objective information about a would-be employee, if a candidate talks well in an interview but his test results suggest that he is a careless person who cannot concentrate, an employer is likely to think twice about hiring him.

Taking a serious test for a job is rather different from taking a game-like test. You can spend just a little in answering questions of that kind of test, and you deny the answers and say they are not accurate. But you cannot go to a serious test without enough preparation since you can not afford to be denied and removed again and again.

56. In-the past,who would be sure to be employed after an interview?

A. The person who was well educated.

B. The person who had great abilities.

C. The person who was physieally attractive.

D. The person who was appreciated by the personnel officers.

57. According to the passage, the underlined part "those who are aesthetically challenged" in the first para-graph refers to those who are ______________.

A. thought to be good-looking B. most likely to do the job well

C. not attractive for their appearances D. given the job of interviewing the candidate

58. Many companies use psychological tests ______________ .

A. to take the place of interviews

B. to select senior level clerks

C. to make the employment difficult for candidates

D. to get really reliable and fair information about candidates

59. From the last paragraph ,we can conclude that while taking a serious test for a job,______________.

A. you can not treat it as a gameB. you can deny the answers

C. you can say the answers are not accurateD. you needn't make much preparation

B

A few years ago, a pilot had to have perfect eyesight and a college degree if he or she wanted to land a job with an American airline. But today, airlines have quitted those requirements because they can't find enough qualified pilots.

Airlines must hire up to 62,000 new pilots in the next decades. But qualified pilots are few in the United States. Every year there are more planes being flown. At the same time, 12 to 15 foreign countries are recruiting(招募) American pilots.

As a result, pilots are earning spectacular (惊人的) salaries. The going rate for skilled pilots

is well over $180,000 a year. Some pilots can earn about $320,000 plus free housing working for foreign airlines.

Because of the shortage, some people say unqualified pilots are being allowed to fly planes. They fear the number of crashes will increase. Each year, more and more pilots with less than 2,000 hours of experience are being hired. Airlines are also bringing on board many more pilots who are older than 50, although law requires pilots to retire at the age of 60.

Being an airline pilot is a diffcult job that requires people to make life and death decisions under pressure. Some pilots crack (崩溃) under the pressure.

The military is also having a hard time keeping pilots. Air Force pilots have to spend at least six years in the Air Force. The Air Force invests (投资) millions of dollars to train each pilot, so it doesn't want to lose them.

Experts say this problem is going to get a lot worse. Congress may organize a research group to study the country's pilot needs. In the meantime, salaries of pilots will continue to rise and the number of crashes may keep pace.

65. What can we learn from the passage?

A. A shortage of pilots is caused by airlines and the military.

B. There have been more crashes because pilots have worse eyesight and higher salaries.

C. A shortage of pilots may lead to more crashes.

D. Airlines should hire more pilots even if they are unqualified.

66. What does a pilot no longer need today?

A. Perfect eyesight. B. Military training. C. Two college degrees.D. Flying experience.

67. Air Force pilots have to stay in the Air Force for a certain period of time because the Air Force______________.

A. is a good place to work inB. pays more than arilines

C. has a hard time keeping pilotsD. spends a lot of money training them

68. Some people won't be good pilots because______________.

A. they can't make right decisions quickly

B. they don't earn spectacular salaries

C. they aren't recruited by foreign countries

D. the number of crashes keeps pace with the pilots' salaries

D

China and India possess the global might and energy to transform the 21st-century economy. What makes the two giants (巨人) especially powerful is that they complement (补充) each other's strengths.

Technical and managerial skills in both China and India are becoming more important than cheap labor.

China will stay the most important place in mass manufacturing (制造业). India is a rising power in software, design, services, and precision (精密) indurstry.

Business exchanges have increased lately between China and India. They are also among the fastest growing economics.

The Chinese Ministry of Commerce says China-India trade grew seven times between 2000 and 2004, reaching US $136 billion last year. Many analysts predict it will hit US $ 30 billion by 2010. This raises a provocative (煽动性的) question: What if the two nations are combined into one giant "Chinadia"?

69. Why are China and India becoming powerful?

A. Because the two giants possess the global might and energy and populations.

B. Because China will stay the most important place in mass manufacturing.

C. Because India is a rising power in software, design, services, and precision industry.

D. Becuse China and India are able to complement each other's strengths.

70. What is the purpose of the question in the last paragraph?

A. To draw public's attention to China and India.

B. To introduce the two giants' development to the public.

C. To remind the public to watch out Chinadia.

D. To be afraid of the development of the two nations.

71. What can we learn from the above chart?

A. India's population is almost the same as China's.

B. By 2010 India's population will be larger than China's.

One hundred and thirteen million Americans have at least one bank-issued credit card(信用卡). They give their owners automatic(自动的) credit in stores, restaurants, and hotels, at home, across the country, and even abroad, and they make many banking services available as well. More and more of these credit cards can be read automatically, making it possible to withdraw (取回) or deposit money in different locations, whether or not the local branch bank is open. For many of us the "cashless society" is not on the horizon——it's alrealy here.

While computers offer these conveniences to consumers, they have many advantages for sellers too. Electronic cash registers can do much more than simply ring up sales. They can keep a wide range of records, including who sold what, when, and to whom. This information allows businessmen to keep track of their list of goods by showing which items are being sold and how fast they are moving. Decisions to reorder or return goods to suppliers can then be made. At the same time these computers record which hours are busiest and which employees are the most efficient, allowing personnel and staffing assingnments (人员安排) to be made accordingly. And they also identify preferred customers for promotional campaigns. Computers are relied on by manufacturers for similar reasons. Computer-analyzed marketing reports can help to decide which products to emphasize (强调) now, which to develop for the future, and which to drop. Computers keep track of goods in stock, of raw materials on hand, and even of the production process itself.

Many other commercial enterprises, from theaters to magazine publishers, from gas and public utilties(公用事业) to milk processors, bring better and more efficient services to consumers through the use of computers.

72. According to the passage, the credit card enables its owner to______________.

A. withdraw as much money from the bank as he wishes

B. obtain more convenient services than other people do

C. enjoy greater trust from the storekeeper

D. cash money wherever he wishes to

73. From the first paragraph we learn that______________.

A. in the future all the Americans will use credit cards

B. credit cards are mainly used in the United States today

C. nowadays many Americans do not pay in cash

D. it is now more convenient to use credit cards than before

74. The phrase "ring up sales" in line 2 paragraph 2 most probably means "______________".

A. make an order of goods B. record sales on a cash register

C. call the sales managerD. keep track of the goods in stock

75. What is this passage mainly about?

A. Approaches to the commercial use of computers.

B. Conveniences brought about by computers in business.

C. Significance of automation in commercial enterprises.

D. Advantages of credit cards in business.
