26、When is the correct time to use the article (冠词) “a” and “an”? We know “a bike” and “an apple”. But is it “a URL” or “an URL”? What exactly is the rule? Despite the confusion on when to use these two words, the rule regarding their use is actually quite simple.

The basic rule for using “a” in a sentence is: Use “a” before words, or letters that begin with a sound of a consonant (辅音字母), regardless of their spelling, such as a dog, a university, a CBS news report.

The important part is the sound of the word that follows, not necessarily the letter with which it starts. The above examples have words that begin with vowels (元音字母) and consonants, but we use “a” for all of them because they begin with the sound of a consonant.

“An” is used before words, or letters that begin with a vowel sound, regardless of their spelling, such as an idea, an honor, an HTML document.

The rule only becomes tricky when you have a vowel with a consonant sound or a consonant with a vowel sound. When you come across these, ignore what the first letter is and just listen to the sound that it makes.

What if an adjective (形容词) is added in front of a noun (名词)? Some people aren’t sure how to apply this rule when an adjective appears before the noun being referred to. The same rule still applies. “A” is used before words starting in consonant sounds and “an” is used before words starting with vowel sounds. It doesn’t matter if the word is an adjective, a noun, or anything else; the rule is exactly the same.

【1】What’s the purpose of paragraph 1?

A．To bring up the topic.

B．To bring forward a suggestion.

C．To explain the importance of rules.

D．To tell the background of the text.

【2】What determines the choice between “a” and “an”?

A．The first letter of the noun.

B．The spellings of the noun.

C．The first letter after them.

D．The first sound after them.

【3】What can be learnt about the rule mentioned in the text?

A．It varies from context to context.

B．It confuses only native speakers.

C．It is simple but sometimes tricky.

D．It is not in common use grammatically.

【4】How is the text mainly developed?

A．By making comparisons.

B．By giving explanations and examples.

C．By applying previous data.

D．By bringing out the facts and reasons.

27、People who love to spend time in their kitchen know that after having a rough day it helps them to relieve stress. Cooking up a favorite meal helps you forget about any of the issues you were focused on during the day. 【1】 Spending time alone in the kitchen after a long day at work allows you to simply recharge and enjoy the solitude of your kitchen.

Cooking can be a great way to put off a daily task, and those who love to cook know this all too well. Putting all your effort into making an elaborate meal or your favorite dessert is a great way to avoid anything that you have been dreading.

【2】 Anyone who enjoys cooking knows that when you share a common interest like cooking with someone from a different culture, you can easily form a bond. They see this as an amazing opportunity to share recipes and dishes and learn from different cooking traditions and customs.

Eating out as a cook allows you to taste surprising ingredients in dishes. 【3】 Unusual flavors excite you and unique interpretations of dishes have you asking the waiter exactly what was added to make the food so flavorful. This might not excite your non-cook friends and family, but for you, it’s a great way to learn and improve. 【4】

【5】 As a cook, you have learned to add your own personal tastes to recipes through extensive trial and error. There are no limits for you when it comes to putting a new take on a traditional favorite, because, for you, cooking is all about creation.

A．Going out to eat becomes a whole other experience.

B．Instead, you concentrate on creating something delicious.

C．Cooking is also a universal language.

D．Moreover, cooking plays an important role in family life.

E．It is also likely to potentially inspire you to try to cook the meals in your own kitchen.

F．Mastering cooking skills helps you to become creative with food.

G．Cooking makes you a happy and popular person.

28、   The impression you make at the beginning of an interview is very important Employers often decide to hire someone in the first three minutes of the interview. They judge you by your appearance, attitude and manners.

A friendly smile when you walk into the room is important. A smile shows a confident  and positive attitude.When you introduce yourself, make eye contact with the interviewer. Some interviewers offer a handshake. Others don't.

Try to be as natural as possible. But pay attention to your body language. The way you sit, walk, gesture,use your voice and show feelings on your face is all part of your body language.

"I'm sorry, but I didn't catch that."

"I'm not sure exactly what you mean."

Almost everyone is nervous in a job interview. Interviewers know that. They don't expect you to be totally calm and relaxed. But they expect you to try to control your nervousness. They expect you to show confidence in your ability to do the job.

At the end of the interview, thank the interviewer for her or his time. It's a good idea to send a short thank-you letter right after the interview, or deliver it by hand.

29、   Can you imagine being able to remember every single experience of your life and every word in your favorite book? That’s what Becky’s life is like.

Three years ago, Becky was reading a newspaper article which mentioned that it was impossible for people to remember the details of their life in the first three years.“What nonsense!” she thought, because she could clearly remember her life all the way back to when she was just 12 days old. Her parents had carried her to the driver’s seat of their car and laid her down for a photo. But it wasn’t nonsense. She was just one of only 80 known people suffering from a mysterious condition called HSAM（超忆症）.

Becky’s unusual case was shown on a program called 60 Minutes, where reporter Allison tested her ability by asking her about her favorite book series, Harry Potter, Allison would pick up a book and open a page and read her a line. Immediately Becky would name the book, chapter number, chapter name and could recite every word until Allison told her to stop.

Being able to remember every little detail is great, but as every HSAM suffer will tell you, it’s also tough to deal with it. We always forget things to get over sad experiences in our lives, but it’s something that people like Becky can’t do. Even walking on the street and lightly knocking into somebody can bring back bad memories from Becky’s childhood. Also, like Becky, people with HSAM never do well in school, because they have problems picking up the important information from what they've  learnt.

Becky’s great brain could help scientists find a cure for terrible mental illnesses like Alzheimer’s.(老年痴呆症) Her condition could hold the secret to treating or even preventing Alzheimer’s.

31、Directions: Complete the following paragraphs by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once.

Note that there is one word more than you need.

A Bad Idea

Think you can walk, dive, take phone calls, e-mail and listen to music at the same time? Well, New York's new law says you can't. And you'll be 【1】 $S100 if you do it on a New York City street.

The law went into force last month, following research and a(n) 【2】number of accidents that involved people using electronic gadgets when crossing the street.

Who's to【3】 ? Scientists say that our multitasking abilities are limited.

"We are under the impression that our brain can do more than it often can," says Rene Marois, a neuroscientist in Tennessee. “But a major limitation is the inability to【4】on two things at once".

The young people are often considered the great multitaskers. However, an Oxford University research suggests this idea is open to question. A group of 18-to 21-year-olds and a group of 35-to 39-year-olds were given 90 seconds to translate【5】into numbers, using a simple code. The younger group did 10 percent better when not interrupted. But when both groups were interrupted by a phone call or a(n) 【6】message, the older group matched the younger group in speed and 【7】.

It is difficult to measure the productivity【8】by multitaskers. But it is probably a lot. Jonathan Spire, chief analyst at Basex. a business-research firm, estimates the cost of interruptions to the American economy at nearly $650 billion a year.

The【9】is based on surveys with office workers. The surveys conclude that 28 percent of the workers' time was spent on interruptions and【10】time before they returned to their main tasks.
