阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

A

Will you be playing some music at work?

Music is particularly popular in the medical profession,especially among surgeons(外科医生).A recent survey shows that 90% of surgeons in the UK put music on the sound system in the theatre during operations.Plastic surgeons(整形外科医生)play the most music,it appears;ear,nose,and throat specialists the least.

But it isn’t only in surgeries where music is popular.In another recent survey,one-third of the 1,613 people said they listen to music while working.And 79% of them said that humming(哼歌)along improves their job satisfaction or productivity.

Is listening to music at work a good idea?Yes,say the experts.Many surgeons say that music contr ibutes to creating a “calm atmosphere”,and a third of them added that it avoids getting bored!Also,listening to music raises the levels of a brain chemical that can help people focus.Office workers say it improves job satisfaction.Several studies suggest t hat it’s also good for hospital patients.Those listening to music through headphones during surgery require less anaesthetic(麻醉剂),up to 50% less in some cases,and recover more quickly afterwards.“Sure,music reduces anxiety before surgery,” says Zeev Kain,an anaesthetist at Yale University.

So,what type of music should we be listening to?Surgeons from the previous survey favored rock,pop music and classical.And hip-hop is popular too.However,whatever the kind,it appears that self-selected music is the best choice.Pennsylvania State University research showed that when people chose their own music there was more stress reduction.And other researchers found that when listening to self-selected music,surgeons did the maths faster and more accurately than when they were listening to music chosen for them.

1.The underlined word “theatre” in Paragraph 2 probably means .

A.an operating room

B.a rest room for surgeons

A.music is popular in many professions

B.most surgeons in the UK are music lovers

C.office workers learn a lot from listening to music

4.How should you choose music for work time according to the passage?

Although the 1-year-old smartphone still works perfectly,many people already feel the need to replace it.

There are many better ones available now and it’s time to upgrade the phone.

Shortly after the season when new gadgets are released,many consumers feel the urge to upgrade their electronic devices,even though the ones they have still work just fine.As consumers obsess(迷住)over Apple’s newly released products and debate whether the Google tablet is better than the new Amazon Kindle,it might be time to take a step back and ask,“Do we really need the latest upgrades?”

Newpsychology:“Planned obsolescence(计划报废)” is the trick behind the upgrading culture of today’s consumer electronics industry.Electronics manufactures strategically release new upgrades periodically,both for hardware and

software,so that customers on every level feel the need to buy the newest version.This is an old-time trick—they’re not inventing anything new.This is a wasteful system through which companies release shoddy products simply because “in six months or a year,they’ll put out a new one”.But the new psychology of consumers is part of this system,“People now want something new,something pretty,the next shiny thing.”

Hugeprofits:“It’s to the detriment of the consumer and the environment,but perhaps to the betterment of the stockholder.Apple’s profit margin was more than 21 percent,Hewlett-Packard,the world’s biggest PC manufacturer’s profit was only 7 percent.Apple’s annual upgrades of its products generate sales of millions of units as owners of one year’s MacBook or iPhone line up to buy the newest version,even when the changes are incremental.”

Peerpressure:The need for upgrading the smartphone comes mainly from friends and classmates.When the majority of friends are switching to the latest devices,people worry about feeling left out.Some apps and games require better hardware to ru n.If you don’t join in,you lose part of the connection to your friends.

5.Why do many people urge to buy better electronic products?

A.Because their old ones are too old to use.

B.Because they have no choice but to upgrade their old phones.

C.Because it can bring them huge profits for their life.

D.Because they are affected by their emotions and environment.

提示:推理判断题。由第二段以及最后一段的内容可知,之所以很多人匆忙更换电子产品是由心理因素和周围环境因素造成的,因此选D项。

答案:D

6.Which of the following is NOT true according to the text?

A.Most of the people feel no need to replace new electronic products.

B.Many consumers feel the urge to upgrade their electronic devices.

C.Many better ones are available waited to be upgraded.

D.Not all the people are willing to buy the new devices immediately.

提示:细节理解题。由第一段第一句的后半部分“...manypeoplealreadyfeeltheneedtoreplaceit.”可知,面对电子产品的更新换代,许多人认为有必要去更换,故A项是错误的。

答案:A

7.What do elec tronics manufactures make use of about the “newest” version?

A.The hardware and software.

B.The huge profits.

C.The new psychology.

D.The peer pressure.

提示:推理判断题。由第四段尤其是该段最后一句话中的

“...Peoplenowwantsomethingnew,somethingpretty,thenextshinything.”可知电子产品制造商是利用用户喜欢新鲜事物的心理来吸引消费者的,故选C项。

答案:C

C

A study by talent management expert DDI reveals that one in three employees don’t consider their boss to be doing an effective job,while nearly half of workers think they could do their boss’s job better than them.

Conduct ed as a way to determine what today’s leaders are doing right and what they are doing wrong,the research also finds that fewer than 40 percent of employees are motivated by their supervisor to give their best effort.

Much of the dissatisfaction comes from supervisors’ unwillingness to listen to their employees.Thirty-five percent of the surveyed workers say their boss never,or only sometimes,listens to their work-related concerns.Additionally,only 54 percent of supervisors involve employees in making decisions that affect their work.

The study also shows too many leaders aren’t delivering on the basic requirements—courtesy(好意),respect,honesty and tact in their interactions—of a healthy manager/employee relationship.

Sixty percent of those surveyed report their boss has damaged their self-esteem,while nearly one-third of employees say their supervisor doesn’t remain calm when discussing problems.

The lack of faith in their boss is forcing many to consider other employment.Nearly 40 percent of those surveyed say they leave a job primarily because of their leader,while more than half say their negative perception of a boss has them contemplating finding a new employer.

There are areas,however,where supervisors score high marks.The research shows 74 percent of wor kers understand their boss’s expectations of them,while 66 percent say their manager provides the support they need.

The research is based on surveys of more than 1,200 full-time employees from the United States,United Kingdom,Australia,Canada,China,Germany,India and southeast Asia.

8.What’s the best title for the passage?

A.The Boss Doesn’t Do an Effective Job

B.Hate Your Boss?You’re not Alone

C.What’s Your Attitude Towards Your Boss?

D.Is Your Boss Satisfied with You?

提示:主旨大意题。文章讲述了三分之一的雇员认为老板的工作没有成效,对老板心生怨恨等,故B项更符合全文内容。

答案:B

9.The aim of the study is to determine .

A.what are the right things and wrong things the leaders are doing

B.whether the employees are giving their best effect

C.how the boss should motivate the employees

When Debbie decided to pursue her dream of becoming a writer,she rented a typewriter,put it on the kitchen table,and began typing each morning after the kids went to school.When the kids came home,she moved the typewriter and made them dinner.When they went to bed,she moved it back and typed some more.For two years,Debbie followed this routine.Supermom had become a struggling writer and she was loving every minute of it.

One night,however,her husband,Wayne,sat her down and said,“Honey,I’m sorry,but you’re not bringing in any income.We can’t do this anymore.We can’t survive on just what I make.” That night,her heart was broken and her mind too busy to let her sleep.Debbie knew that working 40 hours a week would leave her no time to write.

Seeing her despair,her husband woke up and asked,“What’s wrong?”“I really th ink I could have made it as a writer,I really do.” Wayne was silent for a long time,then sat up,turned on the light,and said,“All right,honey,go for it.” So Debbie returned to her dream and her typewriter,pounding out page after page for another two years.Her family went without vacations,pinched pennies,and wore hand-me-downs.

But the sacrifice and the persistence finally paid off.After five years of struggling,Debbie sold her first book.Then another.And another.Until finally,today,over 60 million copies of her books are in print,and she has millions of loyal fans.

And Wayne?All that sacrifice in support of his wife paid off handsomely.He got to retire at age 50 and now spends his time building an airplane in the basement of their 7,000 square—foot mansion.Debbie’s kids got a gift far more important than a few summer camps.As adults,they realize what Debbie gave them was far more important—permission and encouragement to pursue their own dreams.

A.he wanted her to do more housework rather than just write

B.she couldn’t earn any money and it was hard for them to make ends meet

C.he wanted her to find a better—paid job that interested her

D.he thought keeping up a house was a wife’s responsibility

A.Wa yne doesn’t benefit from her wife’s success

B.Debbie has great influence on her children’s going after their dreams

C.Debbie’s kids all realized their dreams as adults

D.Debbie is a failure as a mother while she is a success as a writer

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

There is an English saying:“16 ” Until recently,few people took the saying seriously.Now,however,doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body.17

Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body.People watched funny films while doctors checked their hearts,blood pressure,breathing and muscles.It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise.18 If laughter exercises the body,it must be beneficial.

Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body.In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs.The group that tolerated(忍耐)the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program.19

20 They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing,making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter.

13c260bdf605cc1755270722192e453610665b04ughter can prolong one’s life.

13c260bdf605cc1755270722192e453610665b04ughter is the best medicine.

C.They have found that laughter really can improve people’s health.

D.Although laughter helps cure the disease,doctors still can not put this theory into clinic practice.

E.It increases blood pressure,the heart beating and breathing;it also works several groups of muscles in the face,the stomach and even the feet.

F.As a result of these discoveries,some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clini cs in which they help to improve their patients’ condition by encouraging them to laugh.

G.The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemicals in the brain which diminish both stress and pain.
