14、most bosses have lots of rules. The most common ruleis to stop the workers from suring the Internet. But according to a new study, workerswho are allowed to spend time reading news or chatting with friends online are moreproductive(有成效的) than those who are stopped from doing so. And the fun time mus

15、t be written a reasonable time of less than 20% of their full time in the office.It seems strange to allow the workers to surf the Internet for fun at work time. But people need to have a short rest to get back their concentration. Think back when we were in school, we had to have ten minutes break

16、after a class. That is to say after a short rest we can be more energetic.For most workers, the work time is longer than a 45-minute class. Looking through the web pages can refresh(使恢復(fù)精力) their minds and help them come back to the work at hand with more care. If they are stopped from surfing the In

17、ternet, they may be tired so that they couldnt do the work well.“Short breaks make the mind rest itself,” said Dr. Coker. But bosses cant give too much free time, after all, a four-hour game wont do the company any good. Tell your boss about this to see if he can give you a break during work time.(

22、ime in Hong Kong's history, an entertainer(藝人)has been written into middle school textbooks. He is considered one of the best actors in Hong Kong. Yes, he is Chow Yun Fat. The example of his long hard struggle forsuccess has been used in a chapter(章)in a middle school textbook. Usinghis experien

23、ce, students can learn to make the most of their time and to grab(抓住)every opportunity to succeed.On hearing about this, Chow said happily, “I really hope that my experiences can make young people understand that one should not be afraid of difficulties and setbacks(挫折), for they are the only way to

24、 success.” Indeed, Chow has travelled a long and difficult path to reach his success. In 1955, he was born into a poor family in Hong Kong. When he was 17, he had to leave school. He worked in a number of jobsas a postman, camera salesman and taxi driver. These experiences paved the way for him to p

25、lay all kinds of roles later in life. Chow broke into the film industry in the late 1970s. He was one of the hardest actors and starred in a number of popular TV dramas and films including “Shanghai Bund” and “A Better Tomorrow”. Since 1985 he has won many awards including Taiwan's Golden Horse

26、Awards and Hong Kong Film Awards . In 1995 he went to Hollywood. Although he was already in his 40s, he had to learn English. He even put chopsticks in his mouth to practise pronouncing certain sounds.His film, “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon”, began to gain him more fame and recognition around the

27、world. In 1998 the mayor of Chicago set aside January 12 as “Chow Yun Fat Day.”( )31. Chow Yun Fat has been written into middle school textbooks mainly because . A. he plays best in Hong Kong B. he keeps on struggling for success C. his experiences are very special D. he is well thought of ( )32. Ch

28、ow Yun Fat felt when he learned that he had been written into middle school textbooks. A. happy B. surprised C. sad D. shy( )33. What can we infer from the passage？ A.

29、g by selling cameras rather than by performing. D. Chow Yun Fat is popular both at home and abroad.( )34. The underlined sentence（in Paragraph 6） suggests .

31、opular CSnakes are smart. They move fast and without sound. And they know how to protect themselves against enemies by looking as if they are part of the forest. And they do it so well that someone may just step on them thinking they are logs(原木) or part of a plant. Thats when they bite. It is surpr

32、ising then, to know that snakes do not have powerful eyesight. They can see you move if you are close by, but not if you are standing at a distance. Their hearing is not very sharp either. They hear sounds from the vibrations that come from the ground.But you might ask, “How do they move so fast to

33、catch their prey(獵物)?” Simple. They use their tongue to do that. Snakes use their tongue not so much for tasting the prey like frogs, lizards and birds. How they do it is very interesting.Inside their mouth, on top, is a Jacobsons organ(器官) or body part that has several neve endings(神經(jīng)末梢). Its nerve

34、 endings are quick to catch any smell. So when snakes take out their tongue, what they are doing is catching interesting smells around them like the smell of food or a possible mate. The fact that snakes have forked tongues(分叉舌) makes their lives easier. Each fork is like a messenger. It carries the

35、 smell back to the Jacobsons organ, or the headquarter which works out if the smell is of food or a friend. Then it gets into action.( ) 36. Where might you find this passage? A. In the fornt page of a newspaper. B. In a diary of a student.C. In a biology textbook. D. In an advertisement.( ) 37. Wha

36、t does the underlined word “vibrations” mean? A. 提供 B. 形式 C. 震動(dòng) D. 出現(xiàn)( ) 38. Snakes move fast to catch their prey by using their . A. eyes B. noses C. ears D. tongue( ) 39.

37、on of snakes. D. Snakes nerve endings.( ) 40. Which of the following is TRUE? A. Snakes can see you move if you are standing at a distance.B. Some snakes can become part of a plant.C. Snakes move fast but with lots of noise.D. Snakes dont have good hearing.DThere are stock markets(股票市場) in large cit

38、ies in many countries. Stock markets in Paris, London, Tokyo, Shanghai and New York are among the largest and most well-known. The stock market, also called stock exchange, is a place where people can buy or sell shares of a factory or a company. And each share means certain ownership of a factory o

39、r a company.Different people go to stock markets. Some are rich, who want to get more money than they have. Others are not very rich, who buy stocks and try to become rich. Still others buy stocks as part of their plan to save money.Of course, investing money(投資) in the stock markets is not the safe

40、st way to make money. No one can tell exactly whether the shares will be doing well. The factory or company may do badly. Then the stocks will go down and investors will lose money. The stock may go up or down for a number of untold reasons. Everyone wants the stock to go up, but sometimes even if a

41、 factory or company does a good job, the stock may still go down.No wonder(難怪)going to the stock market is often compared to gambling. All are eager to make money by “gambling” in the stock market. Factories and companies that need money are pleased that so many people are willing to “gamble”. Indee

42、d, the stock market is an attractive part of the business world.( )41.
