15．When it was his turn to deliver his speech，         ，he walked towards the microphone．（　�。�

14．Even when you're extremely busy，you aren't using your time with 100% efficiency．There are gaps in everyone's schedule where they aren't doing anything important．Even if your schedule has no gaps，there is probably lots of time where you aren't working as fast or as effectively as you possibly could．
Why aren't you completely efficient？It's because time isn't the limiting factor．If it were the limiting factor，people could work non-stop without breaks or any unproductive distractions（消遣）．Instead，people，even those who are highly productive，need to take breaks，occasionally procrastinate（拖延） and slow down on tasks throughout the day．
The real and most important limiting factor for productivity is your energy levels to pay attention．Energy levels limit your productivity because when you're tired，you can have ample time and still not get everything done．Your attention ability is also limited，because even if there are a million things that need to be done，you can only focus on one or two at a time．
You might not be able to insert another 4-5hours into your schedule without making some sacrifices（犧牲）．But even extremely busy people can add an hour or two into their schedule without cancelling anything．The reason it's hard to"find time"isn't a lack of time．It's because you don't have enough energy left to focus on something else that needs to fit into your day．
I first suspected time wasn't the real problem during an extremely busy period in my life over a year ago．I was insanely busy，but at that time I still exercised regularly．I had daily to-do lists with over twenty items，and I still found time to exercise．However，after a few weeks off，due to illness，I stopped exercising．I was not busy by any standards，in fact，my schedule was incredibly light．Despite this free time，I found it hard to find time to exercise．It seemed to get pushed later and later into my schedule until it was gone．How can I explain this odd experience？I believe you have known it．

26．If someone can't work with 100% efficiency，the most important limiting factor isD．
A．a(chǎn) schedule without gaps               B．breaks and distractions
C．the limited time                      D．the limited energy
27．According to paragraph 4，everyone，including the extremely busy people，canC．
A．work without any rest                   B．focus on many things at a time
C．find some more time in a day            D．do some exercise regularly
28．After a few weeks off，what was the change of the writer's life？B
A．He had a longer daily to-do lists with over twenty items．
B．He stopped doing exercise because of the lack of energy．
C．He found it hard to find time to exercise because he was busier．
D．He pushed most of the things later and later in his schedule．
29．The writer gives the example of himself in the last paragraph in order toA．
A．prove what the real limiting factor is
B．show us how busily he needs to work
C．explain how important a healthy body is
D．tell us what an odd experience he has
30．What is the best title of the passage？A
A．Are You Really Lack of Time？
B．How Can You Work Efficiently？
C．What Makes Your Energy Limited？
D．When Should You Do Exercise？

13．Three Apple engineers and three Microsoft employees are traveling by train to a conference．The Microsoft engineers each buy tickets but the Apple engineers buy only a（1）B ticket．
"How are three people going to travel on only one （2）A？"asks a Microsoft employee．"Watch and you'll see，"answers an Apple engineer．

So after the conference，the Microsoft employees decide to （9）B the Apple engineers （as they always do） on the return trip and save some （10）A．When they get to the station，they buy one ticket．To their （11）D，the Apple engineers don't buy any ticket at all．
"How are you going to travel without a ticket？"asks one （12）B Microsoft employee．"Watch and you'll see，"answers an Apple engineer．
When they board the train，the Microsoft employees cram into a （13）C and the Apple engineers cram into another one nearby．The train departs．Soon one of the Apple engineers （14）C his restroom and walks over to where the Microsoft employees are （15）A．

12．Whether we're 2 years old or 62，our reasons for lying are mostly the same：to get out of trouble，for personal gain and to make ourselves look better in the eyes of others．But a growing body of research is raising questions about how a child's lie is different from an adult's lie，and how the way we deceive changes as we grow．
"Parents and teachers who catch their children lying should not be alarmed．Their children are not going to turn out to be abnormal liars，"says Dr．Lee，a professor at the University of Toronto and director of the Institute of Child Study．He has spent the last 15years studying how lying changes as kids get older，why some people lie more than others as well as which factors can reduce lying．The fact that children tell lies is a sign that they have reached a new developmental stage．Dr．Lee conducted a series of studies in which they bring children into a lab with hidden cameras．Children and young adults aged 2to 17are likely to lie while being told not to look at a toy，which is put behind the child's back．Whether or not the child takes a secret look is caught on tape．
For young kids，the desire to cheat is big and 90% take a secret look in these experiments．When the test-giver returns to the room，the child is asked if he or she looked secretly．At age 2，about a quarter of children will lie and say they didn't．By 3，half of kids will lie，and by 4，that figure is 90%，studies show．
Researchers have found that it's kids with better understanding abilities who lie more．That's because to lie you also have to keep the truth in mind，which includes many brain processes，such as combining several sources of information and faking that information．The ability to lie-and lie successfully-is thought to be related to development of brain regions that allow so called"executive functioning"，or higher order thinking and reasoning abilities．Kids who perform better on tests that involve executive functioning also lie more．

26．What's the purpose of children telling lies？B
A．To help their friends out．
B．To get rid of trouble．
C．To get attention from others．
D．To create a popular image．
27．The underlined word"deceive"in Paragraph 1can be replaced by"A"．
A．tell lies
B．handle troubles
C．raise questions
D．do research

A．which factors can reduce lying
B．why some lie more than others
C．it is normal for kids to tell lies

7．The iPhone，the iPad：each of Apple's products sounds cool and has become a fad（一時(shí)的風(fēng)尚）． Apple has cleverly taken advantage of the power of the letter"i"？and many other brands are following suit．The BBC's iPlayer？which allows Web users to watch TV programs on the Internet？adopted the title in 2008．A lovely bear？popular in the US and UK？that plays music and video is called"iTeddy"．
A slimmed-down version of London's Independent newspaper was launched last week under the name"i"．
In general，single-letter prefixes （前綴） have been popular since the 199Cb，when terms such as e-mail and e-commerce first came into use．
Most"i"products are targeted at young people and considering the major readers of Independent's i，it s no surprise that they've selected this fashionable name．
But it's hard to see what's so special about the letter"i"．Why not use"a"，"b"，or"c"instead？According to Tony Thome，head of the Language Center at King's College，London，"i"works because its meaning has become ambiguous．When Apple uses"i"，no one knows whether it means Internet，information，individual or interactive，Thome told BBC Magazines．"Even when Apple created the iPod，it seems it didn't have one clear definition，"he says．
"However，thanks to Apple，the term is now associated with portability （輕便?）．"adds Thorne． Clearly the letter"i"also agrees with the idea that the Western World is centered on the individual．
Each person believes they have their own needs，and we love personalized products for this reason． Along with"Google"and"blog"，readers of BBC Magazines voted"i"as one of the top 20 words
that have come to define the last decade．
But as history shows，people grow tired of fads．From the 1900s to 1990s，products with"2000"in their names became fashionable as the year was associated with all things advanced and modem．However，as we entered the new century，the trend inevitably disappeared．
66．People use iPlayer toC．
A．listen to music                                    B．make a call

67．We can infer that the Independent's"i"is aimed atA   
A．young readers                                      B．old readers
C．fashionable women                                  D．engineers
68．The underlined word"ambiguous"means"B"．
A．popular         B．uncertain        C．definite        D．unique

6．The art of reading fiction is largely a matter of inferring meanings．To infer means to understand facts which are not directly stated-only suggested．Inference is one of the commonest ways of knowing things_： a child holds his knee and cries； this action implies his feeling； aji observer infers that the child hurt．To infer accurately in everyday life requires caution in observing； to infer skillfully in fiction requires caution in reading； both require disciplined imagination．
The short-story reader can expect to find certain basic elements in any story．For example，all stories involve a person or persons，in a particular setting，faced with a demand for a response．The response called for may be a physical action，such as defeating an adversary （對(duì)手） or escaping from a danger； or it may be a mental action，such as adjusting to others or within oneself．In either case，the short story is a description in two ways_： first，it shows the motives for a given，human action； second，it makes a point about the general human situation．Such descriptions，however，rather than being stated directly，usually are implied by the elements of the story．
When the reader of a story understands all the facts and their interrelationships，he is ready to infer the significance of the story as a whole-its comment on the human situation．This comment，or theme，is the seed from which the story grew．It is also the idea by which all the separate elements of the story are governed，while these in turn further shape and modify the theme．In addition to action，character，and setting，these elements include structure，mood，tone，and point of view．
Fiction reading requires an awareness of all the ways in which a story communicates．It also requires attention to detail．What the author provides is a network of points which serve as clues to his meaning．He invites the"reader to develop the meaning by inference，actually to create much of the story himself and so make it part of his own experience．
67．According to the author，"infer"meansA．
A．knowing facts beyond the statement
B．looking for more evidences for the statement
C．finding out a different meaning from the statement
D．a(chǎn)dding some facts to the statement 68．Wh
68．t is inferring in fiction based on？B
A．Readers'guessing．
B．The basic elements of the story．
C．The setting of the story．
D．The interrelationships between people in the story．
69．What is the implied meaning of the last sentence？A
A．Inferring can really help the reader develop imagination and enrich himself．
B Inferring can help the reader write a story of his own．
C．The reader should look for an experience described in the story he reads．
D．The experience described in the story will leave a great impact on its reader．
70．What is the main idea of this passage？C
A．Inferring is an art of writing．
B．Inferring is a need in fiction writing．
C．Inferring is the basic skill in reading fiction．
D．Inferring is common in reading．
