21、Martin was returning to work in his London office after spending two weeks with his brother in New York. He was coming back with a heavy heart. It was not just that it was the end of a wonderful holiday; it was not just that he invariably suffered badly from jet lag(时差); it was that Monday morning always began with a team meeting and , over the months, he had grown to hate them.

Martin was aware that colleagues approached these meetings with hidden agenda（会议议 程）; they indulged in(沉溺于）game playing ; and he knew that people were not being honest and open. The meetings themselves were bad enough---there was all the moaning afterwards at the meeting like “I could have improved on that idea, but I wasn’t going to say.”

As this morning’s meeting began, Martin prepared himself for the usual dullness and boredom. But, as the meeting progressed, he became aware of a strange background noise. At first, he thought that he was still hearing the engine noise from the aircraft that had brought him back to London. But as he concentrated on the noise, it became a little clearer.

He realized, to his amazement, that he could actually hear what they were thinking at the same time as they were speaking. What surprised him, even more than the acquisition of this strange power, was that he discovered that what people were saying was not really what they were thinking. They were not making clear their reservations. They were not supporting views which they thought might be popular. They were not contributing their new insights. They were not volunteering their new ideas.

Martin found it impossible not to respond to his new knowledge. So he started to make gentle interventions (干涉), based more on what he could hear his colleagues thinking than on what he could hear them saying. “So, John, are you really saying.....” “Susan, do you really think that?” “Tom, have you got an idea on how we could take this forward?” They looked at him, puzzled. In truth, he felt rather proud of his newly -acquired talent.

As the meeting progressed, it was clear to him that each member of the meeting was learning how to hear the thoughts of the others. The game playing started to fall away; people started to speak more directly; views became better understood; the atmosphere became more open and trusting.

The meeting ended. As people left the room, Martin found that he could still hear what they were thinking. “That was the best meeting we’ve ever had.” “All meetings should be like that,” “ In future, I’m going to say what I think.”

【1】It is known from the first paragraph that Martin_____.

A．just came back from his business trip in New York

B．was found to suffer from a serious heart disease during the trip

C．had a good time during his fortnight’s stay in New York

D．didn’t like his work in his London office

【2】Why did Martin hate his company’s team meeting?

A．Because it had to be held every Monday morning.

B．Because he was tired of hosting such a meeting

C．Because he couldn’t control the meeting that was out of order.

D．Because the meeting atmosphere wasn’t open and trusting.

【3】The underlined part “his newly-acquired talent” in Paragraph 5 means that he could ______.

A．still hear the engine noise of the plane though he was back

B．clearly hear what the members of the meeting were saying

C．actually control the thoughts of the members of the meeting

D．express what the meeting members were thinking based on their words and their thoughts

【4】What do we know about this Monday morning’s meeting from the passage?

A．Martin made people say what they were thinking immediately the meeting began.

B．Martin was angry at the dullness of the meeting at the beginning of the meeting..

C．Martin led people to express their real thoughts with the meeting progressing.

D．Many members of the meeting played games and told lies at the meeting all the time.

【5】It is inferred from the last two paragraphs that towards the end of the meeting Martin would hear such words as “_______”

A．I was thinking of making a suggestion ---but I couldn’t be bothered.

C．The usual people say the usual things, so I have no other new ideas.

D．I could have imagined on that idea, but I wasn’t going to say.

23、   Parents may fear that if their high school student isn’t motivated (有动力) to do well in classes, there’s nothing that will change that. But a new study found that students’ learning motivation often did change and usually for the better.

1,670 students from grades 9 to 11 took part in the study in two school years, during which they completed several surveys that assessed their motivation. After each survey, the students were placed into six different profiles (档案), from worst — those who were not motivated at all, to best — those who had an inner desire to learn.

The study found about 67 % students did change their profiles during the two years and there was an overall positive change in students’ motivation. For example, 8% of the students were in the best profile — autonomously motivated — in the first year, and that increased to 11.4% in the second year. The worst profile, the not motivated, described 2.8% of the students in the first year, dropping to 2.1% in the second year.

“The other good news in the study was that if we can find better ways to motivate students, if we can get them in a better profile, they tend to stay there,” said Kui Xie, lead author of the study and professor of educational studies at the Ohio State University.

Why did students move in a positive direction? One reason may be simply because they’re a year older and more mature (成熟).

But the study did find two factors that impacted how likely they were to become more motivated. One was the previous achievement. Students who had higher grade the first year were more likely to remain in better profiles in the second year of the study. The other factor was school belongingness, with students who felt they were more a part of their school in the first year being more likely to move to or stay in a better profile in the second year.

“This may be one area where we can help students become more motivated,” Xie said. “Belongingness is something schools can change. They can find ways to help students feel like they are part of the school community.”

【1】What did Kui Xie’s study discover?

A．Students’ willingness to study can be improved.

B．Teenagers’ inner desire to learn can be assessed.

C．Students from grades 9 to 11 are easy to be inspired.

D．Teenagers’ learning motivation is parents’ most concern.

【2】What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 2?

A．The background of the study.

B．The influence of the study.

C．The purpose of the study.

D．The process of the study.

【3】According to the study, what influences students’ motivation?

A．Their average ages.

B．Their previous scores.

C．Their personal profiles.

D．Their motivated schoolmates.

【4】What may Kui Xie probably agree?

A．Schools should put students in better profiles.

B．Students should have their own assessment plan.

C．Schools should use motivation strategies to inspire students.

D．Students should improve their communication with their parents.

24、Do you look down when you speak? Play with your hair? Lean to one side? Every last gesture tells a story. What you are saying to others is not only reflected in the words coming from your mouth, but also through the gestures and motions you make with your body. Kristin Appenbrink, Associate Editor for RealSimple. com, shows what your body language is saying about you.

Standing with your legs together is considered more of a conservative stance (站姿). It looks like a solider facing his officer. This way of standing usually indicates respect.

This way you move your body reflects your attitude. And shifting your weight from side to side or front to back indicates that you are anxious or disappointed. Basically, this is a physical representation of what is going on in your head: you are having so many unsettling thoughts that you can’t stop moving from one to the other.

Crossing your arms and legs is a defensive position. Take note of the surroundings. More often than not, this just means a person is cold. Many people also find this position to be comfortable.

Pointing toes (脚趾) in, big toe to big toe, indicates you are closing yourself off because you feel awkward or insecure. But, if you’re sitting up straight with your shoulders aligned (对齐的) and your head up — signs of an open body position — your feet may be betraying you.

Opening up your hands by spreading your hands means you are open to new ideas being offered. Facing your palms down or grasping your fists firmly shows you have a strong position — one that may not be so flexible.

【1】Which of the following does Kristin Appenbrink probably agree with?

A．Body language will replace spoken language.

B．Standing with arms crossing indicates respect.

C．Body language can express what we want to say.

D．Our bodies’ motions are different from our gestures.

【2】What technique of writing is mainly used in the text?

A．Making comparisons.

B．Analysing causes.

C．Raising questions.

D．Giving examples.

【3】What does the underlined word “unsettling” mean in paragraph 3?

A．Satisfying.

B．Upsetting.

C．Doubtful.

D．Unconscious.

【4】What does one show if he points his toes in, big toe to big toe?

A．He feels embarrassed and unsafe.

B．He thinks someone has betrayed him.

C．He feels like hiding something from others.

D．He’s willing to accept new ideas from others.
