第二部分：阅读理解（第一节20小题，第二节5小题；每小题2分，满分50分）

第一节：阅读下列材料，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。

A

Jeff, like me, is a writer, a speaker, and the head of a consulting company. As far as I can tell, he’s professional, well respected, capable, honest, and has a popular following. Someone we both know has asked us to cooperate on a project and there’s clearly a mutual benefit to our working together. It all sounds great except for one thing: I don’t like Jeff. I mentioned that to the person who wants us to work together. She told me, essentially, to get over it. “You don’t have to like him,” she said, “but you’d be smart to work with him.”

The typical advice you hear about working with people you don’t like is simply to just conduct whatever business you need to with them and move on. In other words, smile and bear it. But I have found that almost impossible to do. The people we don’t like drive us crazy and we waste a great amount of time complaining about them, or stressing about a conversation we need to have with them.

And that’s not the worst of it. The deeper problem is that if you don’t like someone, chances are they know it, which will cause them not to like you. And if you think working with someone you don’t like is hard, try working with someone who doesn’t like you.

It’s simple, really. According to research, the more people like you, the easier, more productive, and more profitable, your life will be; the people you don’t get along with will find ways to bother you — even if you smile and bear it.

So if smiling and bearing is a losing strategy, what’s the alternative?[:.]

Consider, for a moment, the reason you don’t like someone. Maybe you think they have some character weakness or disagreeable quality that bothers you. Like my view of Jeff as self-serving, self-centered and self-satisfied.

Now — and here’s the hard part — think about whether you can discover that disagreeable quality in yourself. You really don’t like that part of yourself, right? You wish you could distance yourself from that side of you. Just like you wish you could distance yourself from that disliked person.

In other words, chances are, the reason you can’t stand that person in the first place, is that they focus you on what you can’t stand about yourself.

Suddenly, working with people you don’t like becomes a lot more interesting. Because getting to know them better, and accepting the parts of them you don’t like, is actually getting to know yourself better and accepting the parts of yourself you don’t like.

So the way to overcome your dislike of someone else? Overcome your dislike of yourself.

41. The author mentions Jeff in the first paragraph in order to _________.

A. offer his view

B. introduce a topic



C. describe a partner

D. complain about his job



42. It is implied in the third paragraph that it is _____ to work with someone who doesn’t like you.

A. a challenge

B. a disaster

C. a fortune

D. an honour



43. What does the author think is the real reason why we don’t like the person we work with?

A. We’re self-serving, self-centered and self-satisfied.



B. We can discover disagreeable qualities in the person.



C. We waste a great amount of time complaining about him.



D. We actually have the disagreeable qualities the person has.



44. It se
