For my parents it was a good thing because it meant owning a home for the first time. But it meant that I d have to change schools and that put some butterflies in my stomach. On the first day of school, kids jammed the school grounds. That’s when I met Barbara. We made a nervous conversation and soon learned we were in the same class. She was funny and we had a lot in common. But she was very critical of others and sometimes of me. She made fun of my bushy hair, my big glasses and the clothes I wore. But it seemed as though the things we had in common were more important than the annoyances. The girls in the “popular” crowd had also been exposed to her sharp tongue. One day, one of the girls approached me while I gathered my books. “We really like you,” she said. “The only way you can play with us, though, is if you keep your distance from Barbara.” Were those girls only trying to make trouble between the two of us? Would they watch me dump (抛弃) Barbara and then dump me for laughs? From the comer of my eye I found two of the other girls from the group. They were watching me and giggling (咯咯地笑). I wondered if I was cool enough for them. I didn’t want to make the choice they were forcing me to make. So I shook my head and said, “I don’t think so. I like Barbara and we’re good friends.” Then I gathered my books and ran away. Even though Barbara still annoyed me at times, I knew I’d done the right thing. I’d made my own decision about a girl who had befriended me when I badly needed a friend. When she moved the following year I missed her friendship terribly. But what I kept has never left me—my self-respect. 21. What does the underlined phrase mean? A. Got me to feel more excited. B. Left me in a state of desire. C. Brought me more expectation. D. Made me have a nervous feeling. 22. What do we know about Barbara? A. She was a girl with a sharp tongue. B. She was popular with kids at school. C. She offered others help in critical moments. D. She was very critical of her own dress. 23. What was the writer asked to do by one girl? A. To join the “popular” crowd. B. To end her friendship with Barbara. C. To invite Barbara to hang out with them. D. To pretend to be cool in the “popular” crowd. 24. What lesson did the writer learn from her experience? A. Keep far away from the “popular” group. B. Avoid making friends with an annoying person. C. Keep self-respect in making your own decisions. D. Share common interest with your friends. B Spring is coming, and it is time for those about to graduate to look for jobs. Competition is tough, so job seekers must carefully consider their personal choices. Whatever we are wearing, our family and friends may accept us, but the workplace may not. A high school newspaper editor said it is unfair for companies to discourage visible tattoos (纹身), nose rings, or certain dress styles. It is true you can’t judge a book by its cover, yet people do “cover” themselves in order to convey certain messages. What we wear, including tattoos and nose rings, is an expression of who we are. Just as people convey messages about themselves with their appearances, so do companies. Dress standards exist in the business world for a number of reasons, but the main concern is often about what customers accept. Others may say how to dress is a matter of personal freedom, but for businesses it is more about whether to make or lose money. Most employers do care about the personal appearances of their employees, because those people represent the companies to their customers. As a hiring manager I am paid to choose the people who would make the best impression on our customers. There are plenty of well-qualified candidates, so it is not wrong to reject someone who might disappoint my customers. Even though I am open-minded, I can’t expect all our customers are. There is nobody to blame but yourself if your set of choices does not match that of your preferred employer. No company should have to change to satisfy a candidate simply because he or she is unwilling to respect its standards as long as its standards are legal. 25. Which of the following is the newspaper editor’s opinion according to Paragraph 2? A. People’s appearances carry message about themselves. B. Customers’ choices influence dress standards in companies. C. Candidates with tattoos or nose rings should be fairly-treated. D. Strange dress styles should not be encouraged in the workplace. 26. What can be inferred from the text? A. Candidates have to wear what companies prefer for an interview. B. What to wear is not a matter of personal choice for companies. C. Companies sometimes have to change to respect their candidates. D. Hiring managers make the best impression on their candidates. 27. Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A. Employees Matter B. Personal Choices Matter C. Appearances Matter D. Hiring Managers Matter 28. The author’s attitude towards strange dress styles in the workplace may best be described as . A. enthusiastic B. negative C. positive D. sympathetic C The online takeaway industry is growing in China along with the rapid development of the Internet economy. But environmental activists complain that the huge volume of plastic utensils (用具), wrapping and containers presents a great challenge to the environment, and that the heavy use of throwaway wooden chopsticks is reducing natural resources. On September 1, the Beijing No.4 Intermediate People’s Court accepted a lawsuit filed by the Chongqing Green Volunteer League, an environmental non-government organization (NGO), against the country’s three largest food delivery platforms—Baidu Waimai, Ele.me and Meituan. The NGO stated that the companies failed to provide customers with the choice to not receive throwaway plastic utensils along with their food deliveries. Meanwhile, these utensils have created large amounts of rubbish and caused serious ecological damage. In response, both Meituan and Ele.me, which acquired Baidu Waimai in August, have promised to take measures to reduce plastic waste. Meituan announced that it would appoint a chief environmental officer to oversee environmental issues from plastic waste and upgrade its smartphone app to provide consumers with the option of ordering food without single-use chopsticks, spoons or napkins. Ele.me followed by offering a similar choice and putting forward a plan to introduce suppliers of degradable (可降解的) plastic utensils to restaurants in the long term. Is there a possible way out? Combined efforts by delivery platforms, consumers, restaurants and government departments are required to address plastic waste pollution. For platforms, promoting environmental protection and introducing this idea to consumers are a meaningful move. Moreover, in the future, they should also make strict rules on the use of plastic utensils. For example, no more than one plastic bag should be used to wrap soup dishes, and all plastic products should be degradable. It is a long and difficult task for them, and the recent reactions from Ele.me and Meituan are just beginnings. Considering most takeout food packaging is thrown into garbage bins and then taken away along with other household garbage, sorting of waste also becomes more important. Government departments could play a major role in this, and by recycling some materials, waste pollution could be reduced and resources saved. Furthermore, there have been growing calls that the government should also invest more in developing degradable plastic products or environmentally friendly alternatives. Though consumers enjoy the convenience yet also suffer exposure to the pollution, many of them have paid little attention to the plastic waste problem. Environmental groups suggest that consumers change their habits a little by using their own utensils and dishes and refusing unnecessary plastic containers. 29. The Chongqing Green Volunteer League accused the three food delivery platforms of ________. A. causing damage to people’s health B. violating environmental standards C. using many wooden chopsticks D. offering no utensil option 30. The author suggests food delivery platforms ________. A. raise people’s awareness B. research possible alternatives C. upgrade their application design D. hire a chief environmental officer 31. Who probably plays a more important role in promoting the categorization of rubbish? A. Government departments. B. Food delivery platforms. C. Environmental groups. D. Fast food restaurants. 32. The passage is mainly concerned with ________. A. why environmental problems arise B. who food delivery platforms affect most C. how plastic utensil pollution can be solved D. what efforts environmental groups have made D The cost of living in countries like the U.S., Britain, Australia or France has skyrocketed in recent years.

Recently our class has held a heated discussion about it and opinions are divided. 60% of the students are in favor of mobile payment. Firstly, it is easy to operate, as they just need to take a smart phone instead of cash or bank cards. Meanwhile, it’s widely accepted in different places, ranging from big shopping malls to stallholders, which is really convenient to consumers. In addition, they can enjoy some discounts with online payment, which may relieve their financial burden. However, about 40% of the students are opposed to mobile payment. First of all, they are concerned about its security. It is likely that personal information could be let out and money stolen. Besides, they tend to buy more than what they really need by paying online. Furthermore, it’s difficult for some old people to adapt to it. From my perspective, I am happy to embrace the new trend. Undoubtedly, paying online will contribute to an easier life and it will definitely improve our living standards. Yours, Li Ming 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
