After being there a short time, she 36 to her neighbor about the poor service she received at the local drugstore. She was hoping her new acquaintance would repeat her 37 to the store’s owner.‎ The next time the 38 went to the drugstore, the druggist greeted her with a big smile, told her how 39 he was to see her again, and said he hoped she liked their town. He also offered himself 40 a resource to the woman and her husband as they got 41 . Then he took care of her order quickly and efficiently.‎ Later the woman reported the unbelievable 42 to her friend. “I suppose you told him how poor I thought the 43 was?” she declared.‎ ‎“Well, no,” the neighbor said. “ 44 —and I hope you don’t mind—I told him you were 45 at the way he had built up this small town drugstore, 46 that you thought it was one of the best-run drugstores you’d ever seen.”‎ That woman’s neighbor understood that people 47 respect. In fact, most people will do nearly anything for you if you treat them 48 . And that means making it clear to them that their 49 are important, their preferences are respected, and their opinions are 50 . It means giving them thebenefit of the doubt. Or as poet-philosopher Ralph Waldo Emerson put it, “Every man is 51 to be valued by his best moments.”‎ Where love focuses on giving to others, respect shows a 52 to receive from them. If you have had the opportunity to work in many environments, and you have 53 both types of people—those who have and those who have not shown you respect—you 54 how motivational respect can be. And you also know that you are more easily influenced by people who 55 you well.‎ ‎36. A. turned B. apologized C. pointed D. complained ‎37. A. criticism B. pleasure C. guidance D. invitation ‎38.

Teach 第三部分:阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)‎ 请认真阅读下列短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。‎ A Imagine that you, a newly-graduated student, were looking for a single apartment. You wandered into a housing agent and learnt that there were three apartments available. The three apartments were almost the same in every respect except their distances to your workplace and street noise levels. Apartment A takes the longest to get to work; it is also the quietest. Apartment C takes the least time, but sits near a busy, noisy street. Apartment B is moderate on distances and street noise. Assume that you value convenience as much as quietness. Which apartment would you take?‎ You may find the decision somehow difficult. After all, all apartments seem similarly desirable, and each apartment has its unique advantages and disadvantages. Unable to figure out whether you should give up convenience for quietness, you are likely to end up with Apartment B – the one with relatively moderate value on convenience and quietness. Research calls this the “compromise effect” – under decision conflict, consumers tend to take the middle route, a tendency that grows increasingly obvious as the number of available choices increases.‎ What exactly motivates consumers to choose a middle or compromise option? You choose the middle apartment because you are determined to look for the “best” apartment – one that takes the least time to your office and at the same time lies in the quietest neighborhood. Unfortunately, such a satisfying option doesn’t exist in a compromise choice set – a shorter distance requires you to give up some quality sleep, and quietness at night comes at the price of hurry in the morning, particularly if you are late. It is a powerful psychological principle that losses can weigh twice as much as same-sized gains. Unwilling to give up either benefits, you are likely to end up with a compromise option – you didn’t gain, nor did you lose. ‎ ‎56. The example of a student looking for an apartment is to _______.‎ A. introduce the topic B. describe the situation C. explain the problem D. give the evidence ‎ ‎57. “Compromise effect” often occurs when people_______.‎ A. give up convenience B. deal with decision conflicts C. gain rather than lose D. find satisfying options ‎58. What is the last paragraph mainly about?‎ A. Benefits of a compromise. B. Importance of a compromise. ‎ C. Ideas against a compromise. D. Reasons for a compromise.‎ B A team of researchers from California and Japan has found that an essential amino acid plays a crucial role in the creation of blood stem cells—a discovery the scientists say could offer a potential alternative to chemotherapy(化疗) and radiation in treating blood cancer patients.‎ The amino acid valine(缬氨酸), which people obtain by eating protein, appears key to the formation of blood stem cells. Mice deprived of the protein building block for two to four weeks stopped making new blood cells altogether, according to the new study.‎ ‎ In lab tests the study showed human blood stem cells also appear to be as dependent on valine, the researchers said. If this proves true, depriving patients of the amino acid before a bone marrow (骨髓)transplant might spare them the necessity of chemotherapy or radiation, both of which destroy blood stem cells to make room for new, transplanted ones. But with these procedures one in 20 transplant patients dies, sometimes from complications linked to the poisonous and harmful treatments.‎ Additionally, depriving certain leukemia patients of valine might even kill off the cells that are causing their cancers, says Hiromitsu Nakauchi, a senior author on the new paper. “If such a simple and relatively less harmful therapy could be used to treat leukemias, that would be great,” says Nakauchi, a stem cell researcher at both the University of Tokyo and Stanford University. “That’s what I’m hoping at the moment.” Nakauchi adds that he was surprised to uncover such a basic biological process. “I couldn’t believe it myself,” he says.‎ Camilla Forsberg, a blood stem cell researcher at the University of California, Santa Cruz, who was not involved in the research, says she was impressed with the results and thrilled there are still such fundamental discoveries to be made. “It’s pretty exciting how the basic things we think about are still giving us surprises,” she says, adding that it will be crucial to figure out why these blood stem cells—also called hematopoietic cells—are so sensitive to valine. Other cell types might have particular sensitivities to the other 19 amino acids active in the body, nine of which are vital and must be obtained via food, so Forsberg believes these must now be studied as well. ‎ Now Nakauchi says he hopes the work will lead to new approaches to cancer treatment. “There may be some other, similar amino acid–dependency in other stem cells and also cancer stem cells.Those are the things I’m very much interested in.” he says.‎ ‎59. What can we learn about the amino acid valine from the first two paragraphs? ‎ A. It prevents mice from forming new blood cells.‎ B. It leads to a discovery of chemotherapy and radiation. ‎ C. It can create blood stem cells to help treat blood cancer.‎ D. It can obtain protein to promote blood stem cell development.‎ ‎60. Valine deprivation can be used to treat cancer perhaps because__________.‎ A. it seems to be linked to complications of harmful treatments B. it can be combined with radiation to destroy blood stem cells C. it is a basic biological process and might kill blood stem cells D. it may work well in bone marrow transplant without needing chemotherapy ‎61. According to the passage, what does Camilla Forsberg intend to tell us?‎ A. The fundamental discovery makes her confident of Nakauchi’s results.‎ B. The role valine plays in blood should not come as such a surprise. ‎ C. She can understand the reason for hematopoietic cells being sensitive to valine.‎ D. Another ten amino acids can’t be obtained via food and aren’t worth studying.‎ C In 2011, many shoppers chose to avoid the frantic crowds and do their holiday shopping from the comfort of their computer. Sales at online retailers gained by more than 15%, making it the biggest season ever. But people are also returning those purchases at record rates, up 8% from last year.‎ What went wrong? Is the lingering shadow of the global financial crisis making it harder to accept extravagant(奢侈的)indulgences(放纵)? Or that people shop more impulsively - and therefore make bad decisions - when online? Both arguments are reasonable. However, there is a third factor: a question of touch. We can love the look but, in an online environment, we cannot feel the quality of a texture, the shape of the fit, the fall of a fold or, for that matter, the weight of an earring. And physically interacting with an object makes you more committed.‎ When my most recent book Brand washed was released, I teamed up with a local bookstore to conduct an experiment about the differences between the online and offline shopping experience. I carefully instructed a group of volunteers to promote my book in two different ways. The first was a fairly hands-off approach. Whenever a customer would inquire about my book, the volunteer would take them over to the shelf and point to it. Out of 20 such requests, six customers proceeded with the purchase.‎ The second option also involved going over to the shelf but, this time, removing the book and then subtly holding onto it for just an extra moment before placing it in the customer's hands. Of the 20 people who were handed the book. 13 ended up buying it. Just physically passing the book showed a big difference in sales. Why? We feel something similar to a sense of ownership when we hold things in our hand. That's why we establish or reestablish connection by greeting strangers and friends with a handshake. In this case, having to then let go of the book after holding it might generate a subtle sense of loss, and motivate us to make the purchase even more.‎ A recent study also revealed the power of touch, in this case when it came to conventional mail. A deeper and longer-lasting impression of a message was formed when delivered in a letter, as opposed to receiving the same message online. Brain imaging showed that, on touching the paper, the emotional center of the brain was activated, thus forming a stronger bond. The study also indicated that once touch becomes part of the process, it could translate into a sense of possession. This sense of ownership is simply not part of the equation in the online shopping experience.‎ ‎ As the rituals of purchase in the lead-up to Christmas change, not only do we give less thought to the type of gifts we buy for our loved ones but, through our own digital wish lists, we increasingly control what they buy for us. The reality, however, is that no matter how convinced we all are that digital is the way to go, finding real satisfaction will probably take more than a few simple clicks.‎ ‎62. According to the author, shoppers are returning their purchases for all the following reasons EXCEPT that ____.‎ ‎ A. they are unsatisfied with the quality of the purchase ‎ B. they eventually find the purchase too expensive ‎ C. they change their mind out of uncertainty ‎ D. they regret making the purchase without forethought ‎63. What is the purpose of the experiment in the bookstore?‎ ‎ A. To see which promotion method is preferred by customers.‎ ‎ B. To find out the strengths and weaknesses of both methods.‎ ‎ C. To try to set up a new retailer-customer relationship.‎ ‎ D. To see the effect of an approach on customers' decisions.‎ ‎64. Why does the author cite the study by Bangor University and the Royal Mail Service?‎ ‎ A. To compare similar responses in different settings.‎ ‎ B. To provide further evidence for his own observation.‎ ‎ C. To offer a scientific account of the brain's functions.‎ ‎ D. To describe emotional responses in online shopping.‎ ‎65. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?‎ ‎ A. Real satisfaction depends on factors other than the computer.‎ ‎ B. Despite online shopping we still attach importance to gift buying.‎ ‎ C. Some people are still uncertain about the digital age.‎ ‎ D. Online shopping offers real satisfaction to shoppers.‎ D ‎ My professor brother and I have an argument about head and heart about whether he overvalues IQ while I learn more toward EQ. We typically have this debate about people—can we be friends with a really smart jerk(怪物)?—but there’s corollary to animals as well. I’d love it if our dog could fetch the morning paper and then read it to me over coffee, but I actually care much more about her loyal and innocent heart. There’s already enough thinking going on is our house, and we probably spend too much time in our heads, where we need some role modeling is in instinct, and that’s where a dog is a roving revelation.‎ ‎ I did not grow up with dogs, which meant that my older daughter’s respectful but unyielding determination to get one required some adjustment on my part. I often felt she was training me: from ages of 6 to 9, she gently schooled me in various breeds and their personalities, whispered to the dogs we encounteredso they would charm and persuade me, demonstrated by her self-discipline that she was ready for the responsibility. And thus came our dog Twist, whom I sometimes mistake for a third daughter.‎ At first I thought the challenge would be to train her to sit, to heel, to walk calmly beside us and not go wildly chasing the neighborhood rabbits. But I soon discovered how much more we had to learn from her than she from us.‎ If it is true, for example, that the secret to a child’s success is less rare genius than raw persistence, Twist’s ability to stay on task is a model for us all, especially if the task is trying to capture the sunbeam that flicks around the living room as the wind blows through the branches outside. She never succeeds, and she never gives up. This includes when she runs square into walls.‎ Then there is her unfailing patience, which breaks down only when she senses that dinnertime was 15 minutes ago and we have somehow failed to notice. Even then she is more eager than indignant, and her refusal to whine shows a restraint of which I’m not always capable when hungry.‎ But the lesson I value most is the one in forgiveness, and Twist first offered this when she was still very young. When she was about 7 months old, we took her to the vet to be sprayed(切除卵巢). We turned her over to a stranger, who proceeded to perform a procedure that was probably not pleasant, But when the vet returned her to us, limp and tender, there was no recrimination(反责),no how could you do that to me? It was as though she really knew that we could not intentionally cause her pain, and while she did not understand, she forgave and curled up with her head on my daughter’s lap.‎ I suppose we could have concluded that she was just blindly loyal and docile. But eventually ‎ we knew better. She is entirely capable of disobedience, as she has proved many times. She will ignore us when there are more interesting things to look at, rebuke us when we are careless, bark into the twilight when she has urgent messages to send. But her patience with our failings and fickleness and her willingness to give us a second chance are a daily lesson in gratitude.‎ My friends who grew up with dogs tell me how when they were teenagers and trusted no one in the world, they could tell their dog all their secrets. It was the one friend who would not gossip or betray, could provide in the middle of the night the soft, unbegrudging comfort and peace that adolescence conspires to disrupt. An age that is all about growth and risk needs some anchors and weights, a model of steadfastness when all else is in flux. Sometimes I think Twist’s devotion keeps my girls on a benevolent lash, one that hangs quietly at their side as they trot along but occasionally yanks them back to safety and solid ground.‎ We’ve weighed so many decisions so carefully in raising our daughters what school to send them to and what church to attend, when to give them cell phones and with what precautions. But when it comes to what really shapes their character and binds our family, I never would have thought we would owe so much to its smallest member.‎ ‎66. In the first paragraph, the author suggests that____.‎ ‎ A. a person can either have a high IQ or a low EQ ‎ B. her professor brother cares too much about IQ ‎ C. we need examples of how to follow one's heart ‎ D. she prefers dogs that are clever and loyal ‎67. According to the passage, all the following are Twist's characteristics EXCEPT____.‎ ‎ A. resignation B. patience C. forgiveness D. persistence ‎68. According to the context, the meaning of the word “square” is closest to____.‎ ‎ A. fast B. blindly C. straight D. stubbornly ‎69. That Twist's devotion keeps my girls on a benevolent leash means that____.‎ A. Twist is capable of looking after the girls B. Twist and the girls have become friends C. Twist knows how to follow the girls D. Twist's loyalty helps the girls grow up ‎70. What does the author try to express in the last paragraph?‎ A. Difficulties in raising her children.B. Worries about what to buy for kids.‎ C. Gratitude to Twist for her role.D. Concerns about schooling and religion.‎ 第II卷(非选择题,共两大题,35分)‎ 第四部分:任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题l分,满分l0分)‎ 请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意:每个空格只填1个单词。请将答案写在答题纸上相应题号的横线上。‎ The key to the relationship between creativity and dishonesty A new study by Lynne Vincent and Maryam Kouchaki demonstrates that believing that you are a creative person can create feelings of entitlement when you think that creativity is rare and valuable. That feeling of entitlement can be costly for you and your organization as it can cause you to be dishonest.‎ Many organizations now are recognizing the importance of creativity and are attempting to ‎ encourage their employees to be creative. However, there is a cost to that creativity when creativity is seen as a rare and unique attribute. The findings in this study are based on several laboratory experiments, in addition to a study of employees and supervisor pairs.‎ While creativity is in most cases valued, such as other positive attributes, including practicality or intelligence, it may be over-valued compared to those other positive attributes because creativity is by definition rare. That sense of rarity then creates a sense of entitlement. People see their creative efforts as special and valuable and feel that they are worthy of extra rewards for their creative efforts. That entitlement can cause them to steal in order to get the rewards.‎ However, it is naive to assume that employees in companies that have developed a strong identity as creative, such as Apple, Google, and IDEO, would be necessarily more dishonest due to their creativity.‎ ‎“The key to the relationship between creativity and dishonesty is the sense of rarity,” said Vincent. “When individuals identified themselves as creative and believed that creativity was rare, entitlement appeared. However, if individuals believed that creativity was common, that sense of entitlement was reduced.”‎ When people in the laboratory experiments believed that their creativity was rare compared to common, they were more likely to lie for money. However, when people believed that being practical was rare compared to common, the increased sense of psychological entitlement and dishonesty did not occur. The effect was seen in organizations too. ‎ Although creativity is important in the business world, the dark side of creativity has only partly studied. However, as creativity is becoming more important for organizations, it is important for organizations to understand how to encourage creativity. Encouraging creativity in organizations is not as simple as telling employees to be creative. Defining what it means to be creative and what creativity means in that context is important. When people define creativity in terms of being rare and valuable, seeing yourself as a creative person can cause entitlement and dishonesty. However, if organizations define creativity as a common and everyday behavior or an attribute that many people can have, organizations may be able to encourage employee creativity without encouraging employee dishonesty.‎ Title: The key to the relationship between creativity and dishonesty The findings of the study ‎●When thinking that creativity is rare and valuable, you will have feelings of entitlement.‎ ‎●The feeling of entitlement can (71) __________ you and your organization a lot as it can lead to (72) __________.‎ Details about the study ‎●Many organizations are recognizing that creativity (73) __________ and are trying to develop their employees’ creativity.‎ ‎●(74) __________ a study of employees and supervisor pairs, the findings in this study are based on several laboratory experiments.‎ ‎●While creativity is (75) __________ valued like other positive attributes, it ‎ may be over-valued compared to those other positive attributes because of its rarity by definition.‎ ‎●People seeing their creative efforts as special and valuable feel that they (76) __________ extra rewards for their creative efforts.‎ ‎●It does not (77) __________ mean that employees in companies like Apple, Google, and IDEO are more dishonest because of their creativity.‎ The effect of entitlement Whether entitlement appears or is (78) __________ depends on people’s attitudes towards its rarity.‎ Conclusion ‎●(79) __________ the importance of creativity in the business world, the dark side of creativity has not been (80) __________ studied.‎ ‎●It’s important to define what it means to be creative and what creativity means in that context.‎ 第五部分 书面表达(满分25分)‎ The Elephant and the Fly An elephant was standing and picking leaves from a tree. A small fly came,flying and buzzing near his ear. The elephant waved it away with his long ears. Then the fly came again, and the elephant waved it away once more. ‎ This was repeated several times. Then the elephant asked the fly, “Why are you so restless and noisy? Why can’t you stay for a while in one place? ”‎ The fly answered, “I am attracted to whatever I see, hear or smell. My senses pull me constantly in all directions and I cannot resist them. What is your secret? How can you stay so calm and still?”‎ The elephant said, “My senses do not rule my attention. Whatever I do, I get involved in it. Now that I am eating, I am completely absorbed in eating. In this way I can enjoy my food and chew it better. I rule and control my attention.

The elephant revealed that calmness would be obtained when one’s senses and attention were focused. (32词)‎ Inspired by what the elephant said, I realized the ability to focus one’s attention is the key to success. Any person, if easily distracted, is unable to achieve his success.‎ This reminds me of what happened in my primary school. I once signed up for too many various after-class activities. As a result, I didn’t spend enough time on my studies. Consequently, I fell behind and failed in exams.‎ Since then I know that one should focus on one thing before it is well done. As a Senior Three student, having set a clear goal, I will give priority to it, trying to resist any temptation. I’m fully aware that only with a determined mind can I achieve my goal. (120词)‎
