    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

    Sina Weibo, one of the country’s most popular micro blogging sites,has launched a paid service．For a 10 yuan ($ l．57) monthly fee, users get a membership on their Sina Weibo accounts．

    According to Xu Yuanyuan, a member of the marketing team at Sina, themove is to guarantee a more convenient and safer environment for users．But despite the company’s efforts to increase income, it seems that most of its 300 million users still prefer the free version．

    The premium membership (高级会员) plans ,announced by the company on Monday, brought about negative comments from its users ．

    “The current service is good enough for me”, said a based micro blogger．“I don’t really need those value added services and it might be a waste of money．I might consider paying for it if some more features are added． ”

    Dong Xu, an analyst with consulting firm Analysys International, said that Sina shouldn’t expect a great increase in income brought by the new services．The free services are enough for most users, Dong said． “The company has been making attempts at different profit models since last year．A potential source of income could be gaming．Games and advertisements are so far the two biggest sources of income．” she said．

    Other micro blogging service providers have not yet followed suit．Fang Gang, vice president of rival Sohu, said via e-mail on Tuesday that Sohu’s micro blogging service will never charge users．“It’s good news for us．Users can come to our website if they have to pay for services (at Sina)．” Fang said．

    1.Most of Sina Weibo’s users______．

    A． aren’t satisfied with its free version

    B． show no interest in its paid services

    C． are looking forward to new services

    D． think highly of its new paid version

    2.What’s Dong Xu’s attitude towards Sina Weibo’s new services increasing income?

    A． Negative． B． Confident．

    C． Indifferent． D． Positive ．

    3.Why did Fang Gang consider Sina Weibo’s charging its users good news?

    A． Because Sina will make more money．

    B． Because Sina will lose the whole Weibo market．

    C． Because Sohu will attract more users．

    D． Because Sohu will offer free services．

    4.What can be inferred from the text?

    A． Most of Weibo websites will charge their users．

    B． Sina Weibo’s new move will be a great success．

    C． Sina Weibo’s users will enjoy more services．

    D． A large number of Weibo users like playing games．

    5.What can be the best title for the text?

    A． Sina Weibo Faces Great Challenges

    B． Sina Weibo Launches Paid Services

    C． Sina Weibo Expects Income Increase

    D． Sina Weibo Becomes More Convenient

    科目：高中英语 来源：2016届江苏省淮安市高三12月月考英语试卷（解析版） 题型：填空题

    阅读填空（共1小题）

    请认真阅读下列短文，并根据短文的内容要点完成文章后的表格列单。

    注意：补全填空应符合语法和搭配要求，每空只填一个单词。请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。

    Friends in your life are like pillars on your porch．Sometimes they hold you up and sometimes they lean on you．Sometimes it's just enough to know they're standing by．Friendship doubles your joy and divides your grief．A friendship is priceless and should be cultivated．

    ●Remembering the golden rule

    Without a doubt, the greatest human relations principle is to treat other people like you want to be treated．When you show respect for your friends and gratitude for their friendship, you'll be blessed in untold ways．

    You can't know what has gone on in the rude person's life that day, but you can assume that his or her day hasn't gone well．Maybe a loved one lost his job, her boss reprimanded her unjustly, he's coming down with the flu, or she just found out that her teenager is taking drugs．

    Whatever the cause of the rudeness, you don't have to accentuate(突出) the problem．A kind word or a gentle, understanding smile may help the person more than returned rudeness would．

    ● Considering foes as friends

    A friend looks after your own good．On the other hand, a foe is someone who isn't interested in your well-being．

    Yet some students view their teachers as enemies．However, a student's success in school partly depends on the teacher's effectiveness in the classroom．Instead of being an enemy, a teacher who corrects you and helps you to achieve can be the best friend you ever had．

    This kind of thinking, along with a little attitude adjustment, helps you to convert foes to friends, and both of you are better off．

    ● Making friends by being an optimist

    Do you enjoy being around a pessimist, someone who is generally described as being able to brighten up a room just by leaving it? The answer is obvious．Most people prefer to be around people who believe that tomorrow is going to be better than today, rather than people who believe that today is even worse than yesterday．

    ● Capturing the pleasing personality

    How do you develop a pleasing personality? Here are some steps you can take:

    Smile when you see someone．You don't have to give a wide grin — just a pleasant, friendly smile．

    Speak in a pleasant, upbeat tone of voice．Talk to people as if they are good friends, even if they don't really fall into that category yet．

    Take a course in public speaking．The ability to express yourself attracts favorable attention from many sources．

    Develop a sense of humor．Pick up a couple of joke books．This makes you a little more outgoing and friendly．

    ● Don't criticize unjustly

    Instead of being eager to dish out criticism all the time, take the humane and sensible approach．Look for the good in others．Encourage them．Build them up．

    Most people seldom think through each situation completely and consider the other person's point of view．If you take the time and effort to do this, you'll end up befriending more people．

    You surely want to take a good school yearbook photo, for you only get to do it once, and it’s what people remember you by for the whole school year. Learn how to look good and look natural in your yearbook photo with these simple tips.

    1. Practice smiling in a mirror. It sounds crazy, but figuring out how to make a natural looking smile for the camera does need a little preparation. Don’t be shy! Just imagine you are in front of a camera —hold your head high, look straight into the mirror and smile. Keep practicing until you find out your most attractive smiling face.

    2. Choose your color wisely. In yearbook photos, lots of people look good in darker colors because they draw attention to the face. Generally, white often isn’t the best choice because it can make your skin look a bit gray, especially if you’re pale. Besides, stay away from super(超级的)-bright colors ( bright yellow, bright blue) unless you’re really sure they make you look perfect.

    3. Avoid unnecessary details. Busy patterns draw attention to themselves in yearbook photos, not to your face and smile. Save them for your everyday fashion experiments. Besides, have your clothes prepared for the day when the yearbook photo is taken. The last thing you want to do is pick out the perfect thing to wear, only to find that it’s in the laundry.

    4. Avoid big changes to your appearance. Big changes may not turn out the way you hope. Leave some time to do your hair, such as combing(梳头) it up right before the yearbook photo is taken. Don’t overdo it, since you want your hair to stay in one place and your face to draw all the attention, but go for the "less is more" approach.

    1.The best title of this passage is ______.

    A. How to Make Yourself Look Good

    B. How to Do When Taking a School Photo

    C. How to Get Ready for Your School Photo-taking

    D. How to Make a Good School Photo Book

    2.A bright yellow shirt is not a good choice for taking photos because _______.

    A. it reflects light with the brightness

    B. it makes people look gray and pale

    C. it draws more attention than the face

    D. it suits nobody in front of a camera

    3.The underlined part "less is more" in the last paragraph means _______.

    A. common hair style is more attractive than the over-done

    B. simple hair style makes your face more attractive

    C. spending less time on hair makes you look more attractive

    D. combing the hair up right costs less time but means more

    4.During the preparation for photo-taking ______.

    A. a camera is needed

    B. clothes should be in the laundry

    C. fashion should be perfectly showed

    D. big changes are not needed

    Five years ago, David Smith wore an expensive suit to work every day. "I was a clothes addict," he jokes. "I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled." Today David wears casual clothes-khaki pants and sports shirt-to the office. He hardly ever wears necktie. "I'm working harder than ever," David says, "and I need to feel comfortable."

    More and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work in the United States. The change from formal to casual office wear has been gradual. In the early 1990s, many companies allowed their employees to wear casual clothes on Friday (but only on Friday). This became known as "dress-down Friday" or "casual Friday." "What started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for employees has really become an everyday thing," said business consultant Maisly Jones.

    Why have so many companies started allowing their employees to wear casual clothes? One reason is that it's easier for a company to attract new employees if it has a casual dress code. "A lot of young people don't want to dress up for work," says the owner of a software company, "so it's hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code." Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothes. In a study conducted by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers said that they believe that casual dress improves employee morale. Only 4 percent of employers said that casual dress has a negative impact on productive. Supporters of casual office wear also argue that a casual dress code helps them save money. "Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day," one person said.

    "For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes."

    1.David Smith refers to himself as having been "a clothes addict" because _____.

    A. he often wore khaki pants and a sports shirt

    B. he couldn't stand a clean appearance

    C. he wanted his clothes to look neat all the time

    D. he didn't want to spend much money on clothes

    2.David Smith wears casual clothes now, because _____.

    A. they make him feel at ease when working

    B. he cannot afford to buy expensive clothes

    C. he looks handsome in casual clothes

    D. he no longer works for any company

    3.In this passage, the following advantages of casual office wear are mentioned EXCEPT _____.

    A. saving employees' money

    B. making employees more attractive

    C. improving employees' motivation

    D. making employees happier
