Ⅰ.阅读理解

A

I am Peter Hodes，a volunteer stem cell courier.Since March 2012，I've done 89 trips－of those,51 have been abroad.I have 42 hours to carry stem cells (干细胞)in my little box because I've got two ice packs and that's how long they last.In all，from the time the stem cells are harvested from a donor (捐献者)to the time they can be implanted in the patient，we've got 72 hours at most.So I am always conscious of time.

I had one trip last year where I was caught by a hurricane in America.I picked up the stem cells in Providence，Rhode Island，and was meant to fly to Washington then back to London.But when I arrived at the check­in desk at Providence，the lady on the desk said：“Well，I'm really sorry，I've got some bad news for you－there are no flights from Washington.” So I took my box and put it on the desk and I said：“In this box are some stem cells that are urgently needed for a patient－please，please，you've got to get me back to the United Kingdom.” She just dropped everything.She arranged for a flight on a small plane to be held for me，re­routed(改道)me through Newark and got me back to the UK even earlier than originally scheduled.

For this courier job，you're consciously aware that in that box you've got something that is potentially going to save somebody's life.

[语篇解读]　本文是一篇记叙文。大家都知道，医生是救死扶伤的典范，作者虽然不是医生，但他的工作也与很多人的性命息息相关，大家快来读一读文章，了解一下他的工作吧！

1．Which of the following can replace the underlined word “courier” in Paragraph 1?

A．Provider.　　　　 B．Delivery man.

C．Collector.  D．Medical doctor.

解析：B　[词义猜测题。根据画线单词后的“I've done 89 trips以及．..from the time the

stem cells are harvested from a donor to the time they can be implanted in the patient，we've got 72 hours...”可知，“我”是一个运送干细胞的人，运送有严格的时间限制，故B项“送货员”与之相符合。其他三项的意思：provider供应者；collector收集者，收藏家；medical doctor医生。]

2．Why does Peter have to complete his trip within 42 hours?

A．He cannot stay away from his job too long.

B．The donor can only wait for that long.

C．The operation needs that much time.

D．The ice won't last any longer.

解析：D　[细节理解题。根据第一段的“I have 42 hours to carry stem cells in my little box because I've got two ice packs and that's how long they last.”可知，保存干细胞的冰只能维持42个小时，所以“我”必须在这个时间内送达，D项与之相符合。A、B、C三项在文中未提及。]

3．Which flight did the woman put Peter on first?

A．To London.  B．To Newark.

C．To Providence.  D．To Washington.

解析：B　[细节理解题。根据第二段的最后一句“She arranged for a flight...for me，re­routed me through Newark and got me back to the UK...”可知，她先安排“我”去了Newark，然后再转到英国，故选B。]

As a young boy，I knew what people said was not always what they meant or were feeling.And I knew it was possible to get others to do what I wanted if I read their real feelings and responded suitably to their needs.At the age of eleven，I sold sponge rubber(海绵橡胶)door to door after school and quickly worked out how to tell if someone was likely to buy.When I knocked on a door，if someone told me to go away but his hands were open and he showed his palms(the inside surfaces of his hands)，I knew it was safe to continue with my presentation because he was not angry or threatening although he may have a negative attitude.If someone told me to go away in a soft voice but used a pointed finger or closed hand，I knew it was time to leave.

As a teenager，I became a pots and pans(炊具) salesperson，and my ability to read people earned me enough money to buy my first house.Selling gave me the chance to meet people and study them closely and to know whether they would buy or not simply by watching their body language.

I joined the life insurance business at the age of twenty.And I went on to break several sales
