STAY INFORMED WITH CITIZENS' BANK!
Are you a busy person who likes to stay on top of your finances? Then why do you waste your time constantly checking your bank account? Citizens' Bank now offers a new service for you.
With our new Automated Alert Service, Citizens' Bank account holders can have important account information sent directly to their cell phone or email address. The type of information you'll receive is up to you.
◆ Be informed when your account balance drops below a certain level.
◆ Receive notification(通知 ) when a specific check clears.
◆ Find out instantly whenever a withdrawal is made.
And at the end of the month, your complete bank statement will still be sent to you. With Automated Alerts, staying on top of your banking will be a lot easier. For more information, contact us at aas@citizensbank net or drop by your nearest branch.
From: Robert Renfield robertyaho@nemo. com
To: Citizens' Bank aas@citizensbank. net
Subject: An Inquiry of the Alert Service
Good afternoon,
I am writing to request more information on your new Automated Alert Service, as advertised on your website. I have had both personal and commercial accounts with Citizens' Bank for many years. Often, I find it necessary to move money between accounts. Because of this, it is vital that I keep a close eye on the cash flow of all of my accounts, to assure that their balances stay above the required minimums. Therefore, I have been searching for an economical means of keeping better track of my finances. I was considering purchasing software for this purpose, but I think that your new service might be a convenient alternative.
My first question concerns the timeliness of the notifications. When you say "instantly", does that relate only to banking hours? For example, if my wife were to use our debit card(借记卡) on a Sunday afternoon to make a transfer (转账) at an ATM, would I be informed via email instantly or
on Monday morning? My second question is in regard to the information available in this service. Is it possible to be aware of any information in my monthly bank statement, such as interest on my savings account? Finally, I would like to know the cost of this service.
Please send me this information as soon as possible. If necessary, you can contact me in the evenings at 225-782-0902.
R. Renfield

We have been conditioned to believe that IQ is the best measure of human potential. In the past 10 years, however, researchers have found that this isn't necessarily the case--that in fact, your emotional intelligence quotient(EQ) might be a greater predictor of success.
EQ is a person's ability to understand his or her own emotions and the emotions of others and to act appropriately based on this understanding, and it is more important for happiness and success. We have all known people who did not complete college, but who have become very successful in business. We call them street smart. We also know people who, on the whole, are positive, communicative, pleasant and supportive-these people enjoy a high level of EQ.
The vast majority of one's ultimate success in society is determined by non-IQ factors, ranging from social class to luck. Emotional intelligence is one of those factors. The good thing about EQ is that it can always, at any age, be improved, unlike IQ, which remains more or less fixed in adult life.
It's important to know one's own emotions, recognize and name emotions you feel, understand why you feel that way, and distinguish between feelings and actions.
Motivate oneself. When considering how to harness your feelings, practice some emotional self-control and delay gratification. Stanford University researchers tested children's impulse control by placing a banana in front of them and telling them that they would receive a second one if the first remained when the researcher, who needed to leave the room, returned later. The follow-up study found that, overall, the children who delayed gratification and did not eat the banana were more successful later in life--as measured by a range of factors including happiness, income and job satisfaction--than those children who ate the banana immediately.
Recognize emotions in others. The ability to take another person's perspective is a skill that effective managers possess. Emotionally intelligent individuals also are sensitive to other people's feelings and listen well.
39. According to the first paragraph, which of the following is true?
A. IQ determines one's success mainly.
B. EQ plays a more important part in one's success.
C. EQ is as important as IQ to one's success.
D. IQ has nothing to do with one's success.
40. People who don't complete college succeed in business because ___
A. they have good luck B. they are positive and pleasant
C. they have much street experience D. they have experience in the street
41. EQ is different from IQ in that ___
A. it improves as people age B. it is based on IQ
C. it can be improved at any age D. it remains unchanged throughout our life
42. What do we learn from the study by Stanford University researchers?
A. One should delay gratification to succeed.
B. Children are not good at controlling their emotions.
C. Children should be taught to delay gratification.
D. One will succeed with clear goals in mind.

You get anxious if there's no WiFi in the hotel or mobile phone signal up the mountain. You
feel upset if your phone is getting low on power and you secretly worry things will go wrong at work if you're not there. All these can be called "always on" stress caused by smart phone addiction.
For some people, smart phones have liberated them from the nine-to-five work. Flexible working has given them more autonomy(自主权) in their working lives and enabled them to spend more time with their friends and families. For many others though, smartphones have become tyrants(暴君) in their pockets, never allowing them to turn them off, relax and recharge their batteries.
Pittsburgh-based developer Kevin Holesh was worried about how much he was ignoring his family and friends in favor of his iPhone. So he developed an app—Moment—to monitor his usage. The app enables users to see how much time they're spending on the device and set up warnings if the usage limits are broken. "Moment's goal is to promote balance in your life," his website explains. "Some time on your phone, some time off it enjoying your loving family and friends around you.
Dr. Christine Grant, an occupational psychologist at Coventry University, said, "The effects of this 'always on' culture are that your mind is never resting, and you're not giving your body time to recover, so you're always stressed. And the more tired and stressed we get, the more mistakes we make. Physical and mental health can suffer. "
And as the number of connected smart phones is increasing, so is the amount of data. This is leading to a sort of decision paralysis(瘫痪 ) and is creating more stress in the workplace because people have to receive a broader range of data and communications which are often difficult to manage. "It actually makes it more difficult to make decisions and many do less because they're controlled by it all and feel they can never escape the office," said Dr. Christine Grant.
43. What's the first paragraph mainly about?
A. The popularity of smart phones. B. The progress of modern technology.
C. The signs of "always on" stress. D. The cause of smartphone addiction.
44. Kevin Holesh developed Moment to .
A. research how people use their mobile phones
B. help people control their use of mobile phones
C. make people better use mobile phones
D. increase the fun of using mobile phones
45 What's Dr. Christine Grant's attitude towards "always on" culture?
A. Confused. B. Positive. C. Doubtful. D. Critical.
46. According to the last paragraph, a greater amount of data means .
A. we will become less productive B. we can make a decision more quickly
C. we will be equipped with more knowledge D. we can work more effectively

Every Sunday morning I take a jog around a park near my home. There's a lake located in one corner of the park. Each time I jog by this lake, I see the same elderly woman sitting at the water's edge with a small metal cage sitting beside her.
This past Sunday my curiosity got the best of me, so I stopped jogging and walked over to her. As I got closer, I realized that the metal cage was in fact a small trap. There were three turtles, unharmed, slowly walking around the base of the trap. She had a fourth turtle in her lap that she was carefully scrubbing with a spongy. brush.
"Hello," I said. "I see you here every Sunday morning. If you don't mind my nosiness(多管闲事 ), I'd love to know what you're doing with these turtles."
"I'm cleaning off their shells," she replied. "Anything on a turtle's shell, like algae(藻类 ), reduces the turtle's ability to absorb heat and impedes its ability to swim. It can also corrode and weaken the shell over time."
"Wow! That's really nice of you! " I exclaimed.
She went on, "I spend a couple of hours each Sunday morning, relaxing by this lake and helping these little guys out. It's my own strange way of making a difference."
"But don't most freshwater turtles live their whole lives with algae and scum hanging from their shells? " I asked.
"Yes, sadly, they do," she replied.
I scratched my head. "Well, don't you think your time could be better spent? I mean, I think your efforts are kind, but there are fresh water turtles living in lakes all around the world. And 99% of these turtles don't have kind people like you to help them clean off their shells. So, no offense.., but how exactly are your localized efforts here truly making a difference? "
The woman giggled aloud. She then looked down at the turtle in her lap, scrubbed off the last
piece of algae rom its shell, and said, "Sweetie, if this little guy could talk, he'd tell you I just made all the difference in the world."
47. What is the reason for the old woman sitting by the lake?
A. Doing morning exercises. B. Amusing some turtles.
C. Cleaning some turtles. D. Making a difference.
48. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. The author gets used to jogging every morning.
B. The old woman does some household cleaning every Sunday morning.
C. The author thinks what the woman has done is meaningful.
D. The woman is making a difference in her own way.
49. The underlined word "corrode" in the fourth paragraph probably means .
A. erode B. protect C. clean D. stain
50. What is the best title for the text?
A. Your Charity Would Be Rewarded B. All the Difference in the World
C. Little Turtles, Fortunate Creatures D. Where There Is a Will There ls a Way

16．B由上句中的principles and values“原则与价值观”可知此处选B“法则，准则”。

21．D后面是说明父母教“我”做人诚信的原因，故D正确。
