During a recent business trip there were no trains to the airport and many people were stranded（滞留
）and had to buy new tickets for flights and also arrange hotels for the night. I was traveling alone and like everyone else I had to 36 in very long queues.

I had queued for about 30-40 minutes and was looking around 37 I saw a lady with a small child in her arms near the back of the queue. I knew she had at least 38 30-40 minutes to wait just to 39 my position and maybe 10 more minutes from there as I was quite close to the 40 of the queue. I could also see that she was quite 41 and the child was heavy and asleep on her shoulder.

I 42 until I caught her attention. Once I got her attention I 43 her forward and asked the people who were 44 me if they minded if I 45 positions in the queue with this lady. So I let the lady into my position and went to the back of the queue myself.

第三部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）

第一节：（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

What should you think about in trying to find your career（职业）? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work. So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any special strong or weak subjects but your records may show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. A knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.

Your school may have taught you skills, such as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in your work. You may be good at mental work or cookery and look for a job where you can improve these skills.

If you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions, and to g
et on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job.

Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs（拇指） when you handle tools, perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures, it is better to face any weakness than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for example, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead, recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work.

56. Which of the following best sums up the first paragraph?

A. Using school performance to help to choose a career.

B. The importance of doing well at school.

C. The importance of being good at all subjects.

D. The direct value of school work.

57. The writer thinks that for a student to have a part-time job is probably _____.

A. a waste of time that could have been spent on study

B. helpful for his future work

C. a good way to make money

D. a good way to find out his weak points

58. According to the passage, if a student’s school record is not good, he _____.

A. will be a complete failure in his future work

B. will not be able to find a suitable job

C. will regret not having worked harder at school

D. may do well in his future work, too

B

How to Study Smarter, Not Harder

Here are some of our favorite study tips that will help any student study smarter, not harder:

Recite As You Study

Reciting—saying things out loud should first take place as you read through each paragraph or section. Test yourself. This will help you to understand as well as learn faster because it is more active than reading or listening. It will also help you to notice your mistakes and the topics you have trouble understanding.

Take Fuller Notes

Notes should be in your own words, brief and clear. They should be tidy and easy to read. Writing notes will help you better than just underlining as you read, since it forces you to rewrite ideas in your own words.

Study the Middle

The best time to review is soon after you’ve learned something. You are more likely to remember the material at the beginning and the end of the lesson, so make sure you focus on the middle when you review.

Sleep On It

Study before going to bed, unless you are very tired. It’s easier to remember material you’ve just learned after sleeping than after an equal period of daytime activity, because your brain continues to think even after you’ve fallen asleep.

Combine Memory and Understanding

There are two ways to remember: by memorizing and by understanding. Multiplication tables, telephone numbers, and math formulas are better learned by rote. Ideas are best learned by understanding.

The more ways you have to think about an idea, the more meaning it will have; the more meaningful the learning, the better you can remember it. Pay attention to similarities in ideas and concepts, and then try to understand how they fit in with things you already know. Never be satisfied with anything less than a completely clear understanding of what you are reading. If you are not able to follow the thought, go back to the place where you first got confused and try again.

60. You can notice your mistakes by _______.

A. saying things out aloud B. taking notes

C. studying the middle D. sleeping on it

61. When taking notes, you should _______ to better help you with reading.

A. underline important notes B. write notes in your own words

C. take down every detail D. write as quickly as possible

62. The writer advises you to _______ as it is easier for you to remember material.

A. study after a period of activity B. do some exercise after studying

C. study as soon as you get up D. study before going to sleep

63. Which of the following is NOT helpful for your understanding?

A. Thinking about an idea in different ways.

B. Relating id
