　　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和D)中，选出最佳选项。

　　The mountain climber Bobby was famous for his attempts to climb the big snowy mountain. He had tried at least 30 times， but had always failed. Every time， he began the climbing at a good pace，focusing on the snowy summit， imaging the beautiful view and the sense of freedom up there. But as he went on，he was tired out，and often he would look down at his worn-out shoes. Finally when the clouds had gathered around him，he understood that he wouldn’t be able to enjoy the view from the summit.

　　One time he went up the mountain with Peeper，the town optician，who saw his failure.

　　It was Peeper who most encouraged him to try again, and he presented him with a pair of special sunglasses. “If it starts clouding over, put these glasses on, or if your feet start hurting, put them on, too. These are special glasses; they will help you. ”

　　Bobby accepted the gift without thinking much, but when his feet started hurting again, he remembered what Peeper had said and he put on the glasses. The pain was pretty bad, but with those new sunglasses he could still manage to see the snowcovered summit; so he continued. The clouds gathered，but this time he could still see the summit through the clouds. So Bobby kept climbing, leaving the clouds behind, forgot his pain, and finally arrived at the summit. Bobby looked more closely at the sunglasses, and understood everything.

　　Peeper had made a light image on the glasses，in the form of the snowy-covered summit. It was made in such a way that he could only see it if he looked upwards. But Bobby realized that the only reason of reaching the summit was his clear aims and hope.

　　21. The most important reason why Bobby had failed many times was that ______.

　　A. his shoes were worn-out B. he could not see the snowy summit

　　C. he lost sight of his goal D. the clouds gathered and blocked his view

　　22. Peeper gave Bobby a pair of special sunglasses in order to_______.

　　A. protect his eyes from being hurt B. help him see farther

　　C. enable him to see through the clouds D. inspire him to go on

　　23. What can we infer from the passage?

　　A. The glasses were full of magic.

　　B. The glasses helped Bobby to keep the goal in mind.

　　C. Peeper could always find a way to help Bobby.

　　D. Bobby could never reach the summit without the glasses.

　　24. Which of the following can be best used to describe the story?

　　A. Goal in mind, success in hand. B. Failure is the mother of success.

　　C. Difficulties make life worth living. D. A bad beginning makes a bad ending.

　　You are an intelligent and a good talker. You have no problem giving a wonderful report, delivering an excellent speech or participating in a political debate. You strive for meaningful conversations and have no patience for small talk. “The weather is nice，isn’t it?” Really, who cares?

　　Although seemingly meaningless and informal, small talk is the starting point of all relationships. Romances and friendships begin with small talk. In a more pragmatic light，you can’t avoid it. Getting a job, working with colleagues, winning new business partners - all of these require small talk.

　　Americans call it the “Gift of Gab”. Want to be successful? You? better acquire this gift.

　　An article on the Forbes website lists a few reasons why small talk is so important for one’s career. Not only does small talk make us more likeable; in one’s career, small talk is also a “free option”.

　　It can lead to a host of outcomes & from a merely pleasant exchange to the signing of a multimillion-dollar business deal & says the article.

　　In a time when a big part of our lives has moved online & the art of small talk is mysterious. The awkward experience of feeling like a total outsider at a social function, such as a company event or a dinner party, is shared by many of us.

　　“But don’t worry，” says Elizabeth Bernstein，a relationship columnist at The Wall Street Journal, “you can learn to develop your conversational intelligence. ”

　　First of all， remember small talk is not about communicating& it’s about connecting. Bernstein advises focusing on the other person.

　　Bad small talkers tend to dominate the conversation. They spend too much time on their favorite topic，whether it’s football or how clever their kids are.

　　They think they are being social because they are talking. But they are talking to somebody，not with someone. Such people often give the impression of being self-centered and inconsiderate. So no wonder they will lose good chances，like a good fortune or a rise in their positions.

　　25. People usually begin with “The weather is nice，isn’t it?” because_______.

　　A. they care much about the weather

　　B. they don’t want to talk more to each other

　　C. they just want to have small talk

　　D. the topic of their talk is in relation to weather

　　26. The primary art of small talk is_______.

　　A. being informal B. bringing in a lot of business chances

　　C. relaxing atmosphere D. connecting rather than communicating

　　27. The author’s attitude towards “small talk” is .

　　A. skeptical B. indifferent

　　C. supportive D. objective

　　WANT to improve your life? Then do something awesome.

　　According to a recent article in The Wall Street Journal，researchers have found that awe-inspiring experiences improve our prosocial (亲社会的)behaviors，making us more generous and more humble(谦恭的).Awe-inspiring experiences make us more empathetic，allowing us to recognize another person’s emotional expressions better and respond with concern. And they make us more willing to engage with trust and connect with others.

　　What kind of experiences can be called “awe-inspiring”? The examples mentioned by the journal include scuba diving，witnessing the birth of a child，watching a meteor (流星) shower，and visiting a forest. A man said he found it awe-inspiring to work with homeless people and witness their courage and kindness. Awe is an emotional response to something very large，says the article，and it challenges and expands our way of seeing the world.

　　Is the feeling of awe felt the same to all the people? No，the feeling of awe is felt differently by different individuals， and for different reasons. The deep blue ocean might inspire different feelings in a poet than in a fisherman，for example. According to an article in The Atlantic，a 2012 study from Stanford University investigated several aspects of awe and came to an interesting conclusion： the feeling of awe changes the way you think about time.

　　The study says an awe-inspiring experience is a moment so overwhelming that time seems to stand still.

　　When you look at or experience something awesome，like looking at a waterfall or a sky filled with stars，your mind is fixed on the present moment. Time seems to slow down，the Stanford researchers concluded，making you feel like you have more of it to spare. This makes you feel more patient，less materialistic，and more willing to help others.

　　Other researchers believe awe is powerful because it takes us out of our own heads. “Awe makes our individual identity less important and gets us to think about things bigger than ourselves，” Paul Piff，assistant professor of psychology at the University of California，told The Wall Street Journal. Piff has found that many simple things in life inspire awe - listening to a piece of music you haven’t heard before， going on a nature hike， or going to a pop concert. All you need to do is start noticing and marveling at the world around you.

　　28. Which of the following behaviors is the result of awe-inspiring experience?

　　A. You can gain complete trust from people around.

　　B. You will be proud after watching a meteor shower

　　C. You refuse to go diving for lack of courage.

　　D. You will donate some money to charity.

　　29. The underlined word “empathetic” in Para. 2 is closest in meaning to “_______” .

　　A.sympathetic B.fragile

　　C.aggressive D.content

　　30. As to the awe-inspiring experience，which of the following does the writer agree with?

　　A. It refers to the experience that arouses fear in our heart.

　　B. Time will be still when we experience it.

　　C. It makes us feel small when faced with something very large and powerful.

　　D. Different people feel almost the same when experiencing it.

　　31. How is the passage mainly developed?

　　A. By raising questions. B. By making comparisons.

　　C. By giving examples. D. By making classifications.

　　Need Wine Advertising Ideas? Here’re several ideas for your next campaign.

　　Gourmet Ads is a global vertical advertising network reaching household grocery buyers with offices in North America， the United Kingdom， Canada and Australia. Gourmet Ads works with wine buyers right around the world，marketing their wine brand to grocery buyers online. So we thought we，d share several simple Wine Advertising Ideas on how wine companies can market themselves online.

　　Some of our Wine Advertising Ideas are obvious，others not so.

　　1. Branding Advertising

　　Probably the most obvious and straightforward is brand marketing. This is where the message is simply the brand and is created to engage the user and provide brand awareness so your product stands out on the shelf. Some of the key messages when advertising wine brands include location of the winery，awards and varieties.

　　2. Retailer & Branding Campaign

　　Telling your consumers where they can buy your wine is very important， and it’s the reason why you’ve probably got a long list of them on your website. But have you thought about a co-promotion with the retailers to drive sales in store? Your advertising could drive people to a landing page which told people of the offer or allowed them to print a coupon to get the discount. Whatever the offer is，both you and the retailers benefit，which is why you could share the advertising costs with them allowing you to reach a great number of consumers.

　　3. Cellar Door Visit

　　Driving consumers to our cellar door may sound unusual，but visitors to winery cellar doors spend money. Apart from buying wine and gifts for friends，many stay for lunch or afternoon tea in the winery restaurant. The strategy should be aimed at targeting the nearest major city towards the end when people are thinking about what to do on the weekend.

　　4. Wine Dinner Events

　　Many wineries undertake Wine Dinner Events throughout the year，but how often is the dinner not fully booked and you end up giving seats away for free? Together with the restaurant or hotel which is running the event an online advertising campaign can be launched to drive ticket sales. This can be promoted to people that have an interest in food and wine in the local area.

　　5. Winemaker Events www.2abc8.com

　　Many wineries run events throughout the year to connect with their consumers. A great example of this is the Australian winery Penfolds which runs re-corking clinics around Australia for owners of Penfolds Grange to have their wine inspected and re-corked. Why not run an online campaign to promote your winery event.
