As waiters, we deal with customers every day and when something goes wrong, somehow we have the ability to keep on going．It’s our responsibility to  16  the customer．   
I remember my first waiter job was at a fine restaurant. One afternoon，the manager informed all the cooks and waiters that a VIP group were coming for lunch. The group were  17  VIPs in the city’s fashion industry．
After the group arrived and got  18  comfortably, drinks were ordered. Normally, the head waiter would be in charge of wine service. However, the manager asked me to serve that afternoon. I had never done wine service, nor had l ever served a group of twelve．
I arranged 12 wine glasses on the tray and went to the table. As I set one of the glasses in front of the first customer, somehow I had  19  my grip and six glasses fell on top of a young woman, and then to the floor and lay in pieces. I felt frightened and my face turned red. I apologized many times to the woman and to the rest of the group． 
Quickly, the manager  20  my aid and helped in the clean-up and sent out their drinks right away. I didn’t understand why, but the group were forgiving me and the young woman  21  informed me it was OK.
My manager pulled me to the side and said, “If you know why an accident happened, learn from it and move on. You still have a table to serve and you can’t show your  22 or your disappointment. Mistakes and accidents do happen. Keep your  23  up and be confident. The glasses are replaceable.”
I understood why he was truly a well-respected restaurant manager within the neighborhood. His  24  relationship with the group made the situation  25  and the group forgave me for that．

Each year, road accidents kill a million people and injure millions more . The economic costs are greatest for developing countries . Earlier this year , the United Nations called for a campaign to improve road safety .
One way to avoid accidents is better driving . Another is better roads and bridges . Engineers in the Unites States have designed ten new concrete mixtures that they think could make bridges last longer .
Professor Paul Tikalsky leads the experiments by a team at Pennsylvania State University . He says bridges made of concrete now last about twenty-five to thirty-five years . But he says the new mixtures might extend that to seventy –five or even one-hundred years .
Concrete is made of stone , sand , water and cement(水泥). The materials in the cement hold the concrete together . Ancient Romans built with concrete . Yet strengthened concrete bridges did not appear until the late 1800s . People keep looking for new ways to improve concrete . Professor Tikalsky says it is one of the most complex of all chemical systems .
The new mixtures designed by his team contain industrial waste products . He says these make the concrete better able to resist damage from water and salt over time . One of the products is fly ash . This is released into the air as pollution when coal is burned .
Professor Tikalsky says particles (顆粒)of fly ash are almost exactly the same size and chemical structure as Portland cement . This is the most costly material in concrete . So using fly ash to replace some of it would save money .
The federal government is paying for part of the research . Engineers anywhere can use the technology . Professor Tikalsky says some of the ideas have already been put to use in China , the Philippines and other countries .
小題1:Why did the United Nations launch the campaign ?

A．Because the United Nations wanted to reduce road accidents and economic costs

B．Because two million people were killed in the accidents .

C．Because engineers wanted to design ten new concrete mixtures .

D．Because the United Nations made bridges of the new mixtures which could last for about 20 to 35

years .
小題2:What does the underlined word “ this ” in the sixth paragraph refer to ?

A．Fly ash

B．Portland cement

C．Sand

D．Chemical

小題3:Which of the following statements is TRUE ?

A．Ten new concrete bridges have already been built in the United States .

B．A new concrete bridge could last 50 more years than an ordinary concrete one .

C．People didn’t know how to build with cement until the late 1800s .

D．Water and salt won’t do any damage to bridges over time .

小題4:What does the passage mainly tell us ?

A．The causes of road accidents .	B．The advantages of fly ash
C．The measures of avoiding road accidents	D．Latest information about long-life concrete bridges

A couple of years ago, a minister(牧師) in an American church got fed up with listening to the people in his church complaining. They were complaining about little   36 : the service(禮拜儀式) was too long, the service was too short; they didn’t like the choice of   37    they had to sing in church. He felt all this complaining was   38   everyone feel negative. So, he   39    to do something about it.
He gave the people in his church a(n)  40  : try to stop complaining for 21   41  .And not just about the church, about everything! He   42    gave each person in the church a purple bracelet(手鐲) to wear on their wrists. The bracelet was to   43    them not to complain.  44   , after three weeks of not complaining, people said they felt happier. They  45    that the less they complained, the happier their lives became.
Complaining seems to be part of our human nature. Life,  46  , is full of difficulties. It is   47   to feel disappointed, irritated and unhappy at times.

Motorists used to listening to the radio or their favorite tunes on CDs may have a new way to entertain themselves, after engineers in Japan developed a musical road surface.
The Hokkaido Industrial Research Institute has built a number of “melody roads”, which use cars as tuning forks to play music as they travel.
The concept works by using grooves(凹槽). They are cut at very specific intervals(間隔) in the road surface. The melody road uses the spaces between to create different notes(音符).
Depending on how far apart the grooves are, a car moving over them will produce a series of high or low notes, and designers are able to create a distinct tune.
Patent documents for the design describe it as notches “formed in a road surface so as to play a melody without producing simple sound or rhythm and reproduce melody-like tones”.
There are three musical roads in central and northern Japan---one of which plays the tune of a Japanese pop song. Reports say the system was invented by Shizuo Shinoda. He scraped some markings into a road with a bulldozer(推土機(jī)) before driving over them and found that they helped to produce all kinds of tones.
The optimal speed for melody road is 44 kph, but people say it is not always easy to get the intended sound.
“You need to keep the car windows closed to hear well,” wrote one Japanese blogger. “Driving too fast will sound like playing fast forward, while driving around 12 mph (20 kph) has a slow-motion effect, making you almost car-sick.”
59. According to the passage, to create different notes, melody roads use ______.
A. cars    B. grooves    C. spaces between internals    D. bulldozers
60. We can learn from the passage that the highness of notes is dependent on ______.
A. how far the grooves are                B. how big the grooves are
C. the number of the grooves              D. the speed of the car
61. The underlined word “optimal” in the passage might mean ______.
A. fastest      B. possible      C. best     D. suitable
62. In order to hear the music well, you have to ______.
A. drive very fast                       B. drive slowly
C. open the window wide                D. keep the window closed  

How clean are the nation’s homes?
According to a survey by CIF, there’s room for improvement all over Britain.
Love or hate it — cleaning your home is one job you simply can’t ignore（忽視）. But that’s not to say everyone spends the same amount of time or effort on making their places spotless. A new survey by CIF— experts on making tough cleaning jobs easier—— shows that when it comes to washing windows or cleaning the oven（烤箱）,where you live in the UK it may show how much effort you put into the task.
BATHROOM
25% of men have never cleaned the toilet — but those in Wales are the worst. Nearly four in 10 Welsh men said they never cleaned anywhere in the house. Hate cleaning the shower head? You’re not alone — a  quarter of a million Brits say the same. 20% of Scots regard window-cleaning as their most hated job.
KITCHEN
36% of people in the south-east say cleaning the cooker is their hated task. 68% of those in the north-east spend more than six hours a week cleaning their homes — especially the kitchen — in sharp contrast to the 49% of Welsh and West Country folk, who put their hands up to cleaning for under an hour.
BEDROOM
18% believe cleaning starts here: that’s the percentage of women who clean wearing their dressing gowns. 51% of women in the north-west may be staying in bed and giving their husband a cuddle（擁抱）—as a thank-you for helping them clean. In other places, there are far fewer helpful men.
LIVING ROOM
32% of women in the north-east turn up the stereo to help make the dusting more fun. Almost six in 10 women agree, however, that cleaning is seriously energetic exercise.
SHIFT THE DIRT WITH CIF
It’s no secret that the right cleaning products will cut cleaning time and effort in half— and no one knows that better than How Clean Is Your house? Presenters Aggie Mackenzie and Kim Woodburn. For solutions（解決辦法）to all your cleaning needs, here are some of CIF’s top tips:
·Stop a lot of build-up on your shower head—give it a quick squirt（噴灑）with CIF bathroom spray once a week.
·Stainless steel（不銹鋼）tools seem to need endless cleaning. The CIF Wild Qrchid Qxy-Gel-it lifts dirt easily and leaves the kitchen smelling fresh and clean.
·Cooking outside? CIF cream will get your barbecue （烤架）spotlessly clean, ready for those long, lazy summer evenings. Perfect!
小題1:The main purpose of this passage is to ______.

A．tell us the results of a certain survey

B．a(chǎn)dvertise a certain product

C．a(chǎn)dvise men to do more cleaning housework

D．tell us which is the hardest job at home

小題2:It can be concluded from the survey that people in different parts of Britain______.

A．have different views on house cleaning

B．spend different amounts of time and effort on house cleaning

C．like to do different kinds of housework

D．have different ways to do housework

小題3:According to the survey,______ spend the most time cleaning their homes.

A．the Welsh	B．people in the north-west
C．people in the south-east	D．people in the north-east

小題4:CIF in the passage probably refers to ______.

A．a(chǎn)n organization doing research on housework

B．a(chǎn) group of experts who give advice on doing housework

C．a(chǎn) company providing advice and products on cleaning

D．a(chǎn) company providing cleaning services

It seems that the Englishman just cannot live without sports of some kind. A famous French humourist once said that this is because the English insist on behaving like children all their lives. Wherever you go in this country you will see both children and grown-ups knocking a ball about with a stick or something, as if in Britain men shall always remain boys and women girls! Still, it can never be bad to get exercise, can it?
Taking all amateur（業(yè)余）and professional sports in Britain into consideration, there can be no doubt that football is at the top of the list. It is called soccer in the United States. The game originated in Britain and was played in the Middle Ages or even earlier, though as an organized game, or “association football”, it dates only from the beginning of the 19th century.
The next is rugby, which is called “football” in the United States. It is a kind of football played by two teams of fifteen players rather than eleven. The rugby, in which an oval-shaped ball is used can be handled as well as kicked. It is a pretty rough game.
In summer, cricket is the most popular sport. In fact, it has sometimes been called the English national game. Most foreigners find the game rather slow or even boring, but it enjoys great popularity among the British.
Tennis rates high on the list, too. It was introduced into England from France in the 15th century, but it was from England that it spread to practically every country in the world.
Table-tennis or “ping-pong” surely is not played on a great scale as it is in China or in Japan. Basketball and volleyball were introduced into Britain during the late 19th century from America and are gaining popularity. Horse-back riding, swimming, rowing and golf all attract a lot of people.
小題1:The main purpose of paragraph one is to tell us that the English_______.

A．a(chǎn)re all sports lovers	B．behave like children
C．like to kick a ball around	D．can remain young all their lives

小題2:According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true about football and rugby?

A．They differ in the shape of the ball

B．They are played by different numbers of players

C．They both can be handled

D．They both can be kicked

小題3:From the second and the third paragraph, we know that_____.

A．Americans love football most of all

B．British people love rugby most of all

C．Americans and British people may call the same thing differently

D．football originated in Britain in the 18th century

Bedazzling (眼花繚亂) with their bright colors and eye-catching displays, fireworks light up our night skies during the holidays. However, these crowd-pleasers can have some damaging side effects.
Once a firework is set off, it only takes a couple of seconds before smoke, dust and harmful chemicals are let out into the atmosphere. The loud booming noises are caused by gunpowder. While the sounds may excite some people, they can be frightening to domestic and wild animals — as well as some humans.
The pretty colors you see are a result of more chemicals. Barium, added to make green, is known for its poisonous and radioactive qualities. Blue comes from copper compounds. Cadmium, lithium and lead — all found in fireworks — have been linked to diseases, such as allergies and skin rashes in both humans and animals. Acid rain has been linked to gases given off by fireworks, which sometimes go beyond the toxin(毒素) limits of the United States Clean Air Act.
Once all those chemicals come back down to the ground, they can cause problems too. Debris (碎片) from the fireworks falls to the ground, where animals can burn their paws or noses on piping hot pieces. Humans also are at risk of stepping on or picking up something sharp or hot. Meanwhile, debris that finds its way into waterways can damage animal habitats and water supply sources.                              
Instead of setting off fireworks, try to come up with some new ways for fun. Here are some ideas to get you started:
? Sky lanterns — a tradition that originated long ago in the most-populated Asian country.
?  Party crackers — a favorite in the United Kingdom — give you noise and surprises without the mess of fireworks. You can make your own or buy eco-friendly crackers.
? Want noise excitement with less volume? Consider a fireworks sound recording beforehand or break out the party horns (號角) and blow up a storm! 
46. The advantages of fireworks can be seen below EXCEPT that _____.
A. the special sounds of fireworks excite people
B. debris from fireworks can even find its way into water
C. the pretty and bright colors add to the beauty of night skies
D. fireworks are enjoyed as one of the crowd-pleasers
47. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. Copper compounds are needed to make green in fireworks.
B. Chemicals in fireworks are both poisonous and dangerous.
C. Too much gases from fireworks can result in acid rain.
D. Chemicals in fireworks are harmful in the air and on the ground.
48. All the underlined words are probably _____________.
A. mineral materials                             B. tiny solids
C. chemical elements                                   D. broken pieces
49. What is implied from the passage?
A. Gunpowder in fireworks makes loud booming noises.
B. It must be Indians who first started to hang sky lanterns.
C. Fireworks does less harm in the air than on the ground.
D. Fireworks can even break the balance of nature.
50. What can be concluded as the writer’s attitude towards fireworks?
A. It is not allowed to set off fireworks except during the holidays.
B. Fireworks should be banned and replaced by some other means.
C. Night is the best time to set off fireworks and see the pretty colors.
D. You cannot set off fireworks unless you come up with new ways.
