Top lists are lecturing people on everything from "100 books to read ". Aren't you just tired of being told what to do with your time? Now you have a list to end all lists!
Take a look at the following two examples from the list of "101 things not to do":
Swim with Dolphins(海豚)?
Swimming with dolphins is one of the world’s most profitable tourist activities. However, every dolphin will welcome having their busy, tiring day interrupted by tourists screaming pushing around them in the water.Worse yet, when dolphins get too near to the boats loaded tourists, they could get caught up in ropes and killed by propellers(螺旋桨).
Here’s a little secret. Dolphins look like smiling at you, but actually they’re just opening mouths.
Go to See the Mona Lisa?
There must be something about the mysterious(神秘的) smile. The 6 million people who visit the lady in the Louvre every year can’t all be wrong after all. But they can be quite annoying standing in front of you, holding up their cameras to prevent you from seeing anything. In fact, it is hard for you to see the painting clearly because you have to stay away from it for security reasons. After queuing for hours, many tourists can remain in front of the painting only for 15 seconds most.If the mysterious lady in the picture knew her fate, she wouldn’t just be smiling, she laughing. So, still long to see the Mona Lisa? If you want to find out more about the list, read 101 Tings NOT to Do Before You Die. Visit www.not2dobeforeidie.co.uk and buy the book at a 20% discount.

17-year-old Brennan Agranoff, a colorblind boy, started his custom sock business in middle school, with a small loan (贷款) he got from his Parents. Up till now, he has sold over I million worth of socks onlinein the last four years.
Brennan thought of the idea for his custom sock company at just 13 years old. He was attending a high school basketball game in his hometown of Sherwood, Oregon, and noticed that many kids his age were wearing the same white Nike sport socks. The boy told himself that if these white plain socks were so popular with kids,then some cool custom designs would surely be an even greater hit.
But the boy didn’t tell his parents about the business idea immediately. He spent six months researching things like printing machines and technology and drawing up a business plan. Only when he had everything planned out did he ask his parents for a loan. “They thought the idea was a little out there,” Brennan recently told CNN Money, but he kept pushing, and finally received a S 3,000 loan to start his company. Then he began to work on his own designs. The fact that he was colorblind didnt stop him and he has created over 200 designs now.
Business was slow the first year, but then Brennan started pushing his Hoopswagg products heavily on the other Internet. Orders soon started coming in in large numbers, and Hoopswagg became a popular brand among custom sock lovers. Right now, his designs can be found on Hoopswagg website, Amazon and eBay.
Four years after starting his business, Brennan has achieved great success while balancing schoolhouse chores and his social life. And he says he loved every minute of it.

C. organized the basketball match D. managed his company
29. To start his business, Brennan ________.
A. bought some Nike socks B. made a business plan
C. asked teachers for advice D. got money from friends
30. It can be inferred from the passage that Brennan________.
A got no support from his parents
B. was too busy to do house chores .
C. stopped designing because ofhis eyes
D. enjoyed both his study and business
31. Which word can best describe Brennan according to the passage?
A. Honest. B. Kind. C. Creative. D. Helpful.
D
Right now you probably spend most of your time in school. Do you wonder what you are going to do after high school? Will you continue to go to school? Will you learn a trade? Perhaps it is time to think about your choices and to prepare for them. Some day work will be a big part of your life.
What kind of job would be right for you? Think about your interests and your skills. You may like to listen to music, dance, play basketball, or work with computers. You may know how to drive a car or how to get along with people. Knowing both your interests and skills will help make a better plan for your career.
To get an idea of what work you would like to do, make a list of your interests and a list of your skills. Think about what you have done to be successful in your interests. After that, brainstorm a list of career choices that might match your interests and skills. You can later keep your lists with the projects and documents (文件) that can help you achieve the career you want.
They can help you know more clearly about your achievements in school and in the world of work. Roberta Zhan, an art designer, finds her work satisfying because it allows her to use her interests and skills. She enjoyed imagining something in her minds eye while she was in school. She took art, design, and computer lessons, and also learned about taking photos on her own.
Here is what she says about the meaning of work: “If you have a job you like, work means much more than just making money. It means using your talents, making a contribution (贡献), and getting a real sense of satisfaction from doing a job.”
32. The passage is most probably written to________.
A. students B. teachers C. parents D. designers

【解析】
【原文】M: Hi, I'd like to talk to the manager about something. I have to travel every day from Souk Road to the airport. Only the Number 16 bus travels along this road. Your timetable is there. It shows that there are buses from Souk Road to the airport every ten minutes. If this is so, why do I have to wait half an hour for a bus nearly every day? The rules say that if there are empty seats on a bus, they just stop at every stop where people are waiting. Why is it, therefore, that half empty buses go straight past me when I am standing at the bus stop? The rules say that no bus may carry more than 40 seated passengers and 20 standing passengers. Yesterday I was the first to get off the bus when I reached the airport. I counted the other passengers as they got off. There were 129 of them. Clearly printed on the back of every bus is a sign that says “Highest speed:50 mph.” The distance from Souk Road to Kai Tak is 12 miles. On Saturday morning a Number 16 bus travelled this distance in 10 minutes. At times, it must have done at least 80 or 90 mph. It is obvious that our bus companies have no respect for the rules or consideration for the passengers. Can nothing be done about this?

Top lists are lecturing people on everything from "100 books to read ". Aren't you just tired of being told what to do with your time? Now you have a list to end all lists!
Take a look at the following two examples from the list of "101 things not to do":
Swim with Dolphins(海豚)?
Swimming with dolphins is one of the world’s most profitable tourist activities. However, every dolphin will welcome having their busy, tiring day interrupted by tourists screaming pushing around them in the water.Worse yet, when dolphins get too near to the boats loaded tourists, they could get caught up in ropes and killed by propellers(螺旋桨).
Here’s a little secret. Dolphins look like smiling at you, but actually they’re just opening mouths.
Go to See the Mona Lisa?
There must be something about the mysterious(神秘的) smile. The 6 million people who visit the lady in the Louvre every year can’t all be wrong after all. But they can be quite annoying standing in front of you, holding up their cameras to prevent you from seeing anything. In fact, it is hard for you to see the painting clearly because you have to stay away from it for security reasons. After queuing for hours, many tourists can remain in front of the painting only for 15 seconds most.If the mysterious lady in the picture knew her fate, she wouldn’t just be smiling, she laughing. So, still long to see the Mona Lisa? If you want to find out more about the list, read 101 Tings NOT to Do Before You Die. Visit www.not2dobeforeidie.co.uk and buy the book at a 20% discount.
24. According to the passage, swimming with dolphins________.
A is the world’s most popular tourist activity
B. gives fun to both tourists and dolphins
C. will make tourists busy and tired
D. can cause danger to dolphins
25. What does the author think about going to see the Mona Lisa?
A. It is wrong to go and see the mysterious smile.
B. It is not as satisfying as expected.
C. Fifteen seconds in front of the painting is enough.
D. Queuing for hours is worthwhile.
26. The list of “101 things not to do” is made most probably because its author_______.
A. thinks it boring to do the things suggested by other lists
B. believes other lists are not humorous enough
C. intends to persuade people to read more lists
D. wants to provide a list different from other lists
27. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To advertise a book.
B. To introduce a website.
C. To comment on popular lists.
D. To recommend tourist activities.
【答案】24. D 25. B 26. D 27. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇应用文。文章是一则名叫《101件死前不要做的事》的书的广告,引用了书中的一些内容,以引起读者的兴趣。。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据Swim with Dolphins?部分的最后一句“Worse yet, when dolphins get too near to the boats loaded with tourists, they could get caught up in ropes and killed by propellers(螺旋桨).(更糟糕的是,当海豚离满载游客的船只太近时,它们可能会被绳索缠住,被螺旋桨杀死)”可知,和海豚游泳可能给海豚带来危险。故选D。
【25题详解】
判断推理题。根据Go to see the Mona Lisa?部分中“In fact, it is hard for you to see the painting clearly because you have to stay away from it for security reasons. After queuing for hours, many tourists can remain in front of the painting only for 15 seconds at most.(事实上,你很难看清这幅画,因为出于安全考虑,你必须远离它。排队数小时后,许多游客最多只能在画前停留15秒)”可知,由于想看画作的人太多,每个人最多只能看15秒。由此推知看“蒙娜丽莎的微笑”并不会像期待的那样令人满意。故选B。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“Top lists are lecturing people on everything from “100 places to visit” to “100 books to read”. Aren’t you just tired of being told what to do with your time?

17-year-old Brennan Agranoff, a colorblind boy, started his custom sock business in middle school, with a small loan (贷款) he got from his Parents. Up till now, he has sold over I million worth of socks onlinein the last four years.
Brennan thought of the idea for his custom sock company at just 13 years old. He was attending a high school basketball game in his hometown of Sherwood, Oregon, and noticed that many kids his age were wearing the same white Nike sport socks. The boy told himself that if these white plain socks were so popular with kids,then some cool custom designs would surely be an even greater hit.
But the boy didn’t tell his parents about the business idea immediately. He spent six months researching things like printing machines and technology and drawing up a business plan. Only when he had everything planned out did he ask his parents for a loan. “They thought the idea was a little out there,” Brennan recently told CNN Money, but he kept pushing, and finally received a S 3,000 loan to start his company. Then he began to work on his own designs. The fact that he was colorblind didnt stop him and he has created over 200 designs now.
Business was slow the first year, but then Brennan started pushing his Hoopswagg products heavily on the other Internet. Orders soon started coming in in large numbers, and Hoopswagg became a popular brand among custom sock lovers. Right now, his designs can be found on Hoopswagg website, Amazon and eBay.
Four years after starting his business, Brennan has achieved great success while balancing schoolhouse chores and his social life. And he says he loved every minute of it.

Right now you probably spend most of your time in school. Do you wonder what you are going to do after high school? Will you continue to go to school? Will you learn a trade? Perhaps it is time to think about your choices and to prepare for them. Some day work will be a big part of your life.
What kind of job would be right for you? Think about your interests and your skills. You may like to listen to music, dance, play basketball, or work with computers. You may know how to drive a car or how to get along with people. Knowing both your interests and skills will help make a better plan for your career.
To get an idea of what work you would like to do, make a list of your interests and a list of your skills. Think about what you have done to be successful in your interests. After that, brainstorm a list of career choices that might match your interests and skills. You can later keep your lists with the projects and documents (文件) that can help you achieve the career you want.
They can help you know more clearly about your achievements in school and in the world of work. Roberta Zhan, an art designer, finds her work satisfying because it allows her to use her interests and skills. She enjoyed imagining something in her minds eye while she was in school. She took art, design, and computer lessons, and also learned about taking photos on her own.
Here is what she says about the meaning of work: “If you have a job you like, work means much more than just making money. It means using your talents, making a contribution (贡献), and getting a real sense of satisfaction from doing a job.”
