One day Mark Twain was going to a small town because of his writing．Before he was going to leave，one of his friends said to him that there were always a lot of mosquitoes in the town and told him that he'd better not go there．Mark Twain waved his hand and said，"It doesn't matter．The mosquitoes are no relatives of mine．I don't think they will come to visit me．"

15．Digital technology-email and smart phones especially-has vastly improved workers'ability to be productive outside of a traditional office．Even so，most white-collar work still happens in an office．One reason is that，according to findings of a new survey（调查）of office workers conducted by Wakefield Research for the IT company Citrix，most bosses are doubtful about remote working．Half of the workers say their boss doesn't accept it and only 35 ercent say it's tolerated．
Skeptical bosses will likely have their doubts reinforced （加深）by the same survey，which shows that 43percent of workers say they've watched TV or a movie while"working"remotely，while 35 ercent have done housework，and 28 ercent have cooked dinner．
It is true，however，that working at home makes people much more efficient，because it allows workers to take care of annoying housework while still getting their jobs done．It's much faster，for example，to shop for groceries at a quarter to three than to stand in line during the after-work rush．
The fact that such practices remain officially unaccepted reflects how far we haven't come as a society from the days when we expected every full-time worker to be supported by a full-time homemaker．
More broadly the Wakefield survey suggests that employers may be missing a low-cost way to give workers something of value．Sixty-four percent of those survey participants who haven't worked remotely would rather give up some bonus in order to get even one day a week working from home．Under such circumstances，smart firms need to find ways to let their employees have enough flexibility to manage their time efficiently．

32．What does digital technology contribute to？A
A．Promoting production．
B．Hiring more white-collar workers．
C．Conducting a new research．
D．Removing bosses'doubt．
33．Why do some employers hesitate to allow remote working？A
A．To manage their workers better．
B．To stick to their routine practice．
C．To rely less on modem technology．
D．To increase face-to-face communication．
34．What seems to be most workers'attitude toward remote working？B
A．Doubtful．
B．Favorable．
C．Reserved．
D．Disapproving．
35．What does the author suggest smart firms do？C
A．Shorten their office hours．
B．Give employees a pay raise．
C．Adopt flexible work patterns．
D．Reduce their staff's workload．

12．Dear Mr．Jones，
I expect you may be slightly surprised to receive a letter from someone living as near as your next-door neighbor； but I have to raise a subject that it will be easier for me to discuss in writing．
You may have noticed that I have a line of apple trees running alongside the fence that separates our two gardens．You may also have taken pleasure in the frequent sight of your two children sitting on your lawn directly by the fence．And you may also have noticed that my apple trees，so to speak，bend over the fence and seem to look down at your children with interest．
It is only natural that your children should sometimes seem to return that interest．And it is not only natural，but，I acknowledge，quite legal，for them occasionally to show that interest by picking all the apples that hang over on your side of the fence．
But to be plain with you，Mr．Jones，I am tired of seeing your children，day after day，tear the branches off the side of every one of my apple trees，and leave my trees looking as though a battle had been fought on one side of them．I am，if anything，even more tired of waking up these fine autumn mornings，to find even the apples on my side of the fence much less in number．I know this is the work of your children，since last night I was woken at midnight by the noise they were making climbing one of my trees，and （as they may have told you） chased them home．
While I am on the subject，I am at least grateful to you for keeping your bonfires on the far side of your garden this year．Last year neither I nor your children had any apples，because the smoke from your bonfire destroyed all the flowers before the apples had time to form．I hope that next year-for the first time since I came to this village-I shall have my apples，and your children will have theirs and that the sight of the line of apple trees will be a pride to us both．
Otherwise，I shall not express my displeasure simply in writing to you，but shall have to refer the matter to those capable of taking stronger action．
Yours sincerely，
J．Smith．25．What does the writer mainly complain about in his letter？D
A．Mr．Jones'children bending over the fence．
B．Mr．Jones'children climbing the apple trees．

A．Mr．Jones'children must be rather ill-mannered．
B．Mr．Jones must be terribly strict with his children as well as with neighbours．
C．Mr．Smith is likely to have come to this town for no more than two years．
D．The writer considers writing a letter is a better way to talk about the matter with Mr．Jones．
28．What is the tone of the writer at the end of the letter？D

4．With the arrival of the technological age，it has become increasingly difficult to be a knowledgeable person：There is just too much information to know something about everything．So what should an educated person be in the twenty-first century？It isn't always clear whether one should try to become a specialist or a generalist in today's world．
In the 1960s，most American colleges and universities offered a generalist approach to education．In response to student protests，universities began offering many innovative courses，such as Asian Studies and African Studies．Students began"doing their own thing，"taking courses in just about every subject imaginable．But as university students began to focus on more and more of these less common subject areas，critics began to air their opinions．They believed that much of education had become useless．Employers also began to make comment about the quality of college graduates，saying that as jacks-of-all-trades，they could"function"in most areas of life but might never"expert"in any．As a result，the college degree of the 1960s was looked down on by many．
From the 1970s through the 1990s，with new technologies creating new job opportunities，an emphasis on specialization appeared in American education．More vocational courses were offered in colleges and universities，especially as computer-programming jobs became available．Many more business schools were established，allowing more and more graduates to enter fields that offered specialized jobs with high salaries，such as investment banking and stock trading．But with the media coverage of the crimes committed by insider-information spreader on Wall Street，even the reputation of the MBA degree was soiled．The more narrowly focused approach to professional education also seemed to fail．
One of the puzzles of the twenty-first century is whether to approach modern education in terms of the generalist or the specialist．Some universities require all students to take common courses from a broad range of subjects，appealing to the generalist approach to education．Yet choosing the core courses in light of today's explosion in information and multicultural student populations has not been an easy task．How does one select what it is that everyone should know？Other universities continue to tailor their courses to the more immediate professional needs of their students，appealing to the specialist approach to education．But without a core curriculum（核心课程），students often lack the shared knowledge necessary to participate effectively in an integrated（综合的）society．

65．In the 1960s，the college degree was viewed as nonsense becauseB．
A．students did their own things without care about reality
B．too general an approach failed to meet social expectations
C．some innovative courses focused on too neglected subjects
D．the generalist approach was adopted in most US universities
66．The crime on the Wall Street is mentioned in the passage in order to proveC．
A．specialists with high salaries took risks
B．the MBA degree was not worthy of its name
C．specialist approach to education was far from perfect
D．jobs like computer-programming were more practicable
67．The author's attitude toward the college education in the 21^st century isB．
A．positive
B．negative
C．neutral （中立的）
D．ironic
68．What might be the best title for this passage？C
A．History of College Educational Approaches
B．College Preparatory Education for the Changing World
C．Generalization or Specialization，A Hard Choice for Universities
D．Difference Between Generalist Education and Specialist Education．

13．

After 10seasons wearing the No 8on his back，Kobe Bryant will become No 24next season．The reason for the surprising decision by the Los Angeles Lakers super guard last week has become a hot topic for debate．
Bryant wore No 24when he was in early high school，but he changed to No 33in his senior year．He switched to No 8when he was selected by the Lakers in 1996，and has not been changed since．
Bryant has refused to explain the decision until the end of the play-offs．So guessing Bryant's motive has become a popular game among NBA fans and newspaper columnists．
There are all kinds of speculations．Many say that Bryant wants to leave the past behind and have a fresh start．He has often been criticized for playing to benefit himself and not the team as a whole．Others say that he may be trying to compare himself to Michael Jordan．Jordan was famous for his No 23jersey．Some，such as NBC Sport columnist Michael Ventre，argue that it is"all about money"．Bryant will make more money by selling new jerseys to his fans．
Some speculations are more about fun．For example，there is an opinion that Kobe is actually just a diehard fan of the popular TV drama"24"．
All this talk has turned the number change into a major issue．It seems that there is a lot of fuss over something that should be pretty simple．
Jersey numbers have their own special significance in American sports，especially basketball．Players choose their number when they join a team and they usually stick with that number for the rest of their career．When a great player retires，his team will honor him by retiring his number．
To some extent，the jersey is the player，and the player is the jersey．Thus，when you see the famous No 23for the Chicago Bulls，you immediately think about Michael Jordan．A No 32Miami Heats jersey recalls the image of Shaquille O'Neal，and the Houston Rockets'No 11belongs only to Yao Ming．
Lots of stories are behind players'jersey number selections．Jordan said that he chose No 23because it was roughly half of 45．Jordan's elder brother wore the No 45in college．Yao Ming once revealed that the No 11stands for two people in love-meaning him and his girlfriend Ye Li．

78．Which team has Bryant played for？A
A．The Los Angeles Lakers．
B．The Houston rockets．
C．The Chicago Bulls
D．The Miami Heats．
79．When did Bryant start to wear No.8？A
A．Since he started to play for the Lakers．
B．For ten seasons．
C．Since he entered high school．
D．Since he left the Lakers．
80．Which of the following is NOT a speculation about Bryant's motive to change his number，according to this passage？D
A．He wants to leave his past behind and have a fresh start．
B．He wants to compare himself to Jordan．
C．He wants to earn more money．
D．He wants to show that he is a man of great importance．
81．Why did Jordan choose No.23？C
A．Because that number would make him famous．
B．Because that number would make his fans miss him．
C．Because that number was related to the number his brother once wore．
D．Because that number was easy to remember．
82．what does the number Yao Ming chose stand for？C
A．Two long legs．
B．Two strong arms．
C．Two people in love．
D．Two big countries．
