    If you enjoyed the spring-like sunshine over the weekend and thought the weather has finally turned a corner, you’re sadly mistaken.
    Chilly (寒冷的) days and grey clouds are forecast for the week—making it far too early to pack away the winter woollies.
    Temperatures will struggle to rise above zero at night and fail to make double figures during the day.
    People enjoy the spring sunshine in Sefton Park, Aigburth, Liverpool. Forecasters have predicted a return to chilly weather this week.
    Met Office forecaster Charlie said, “It was a nice, dry, bright weekend in many parts and Monday is going to be a similar affair for many.”
    “Temperatures will be between 5℃and 8℃, which is below average for the start of spring.”
    The sun will disappear from the south of the country after today, with dry but cloudy conditions forecast for tomorrow and Wednesday. 
    Wednesday will be warmest of the three, with temperatures peaking at 9℃. But this is still two degrees below the March average for the district.
    Overnight, temperatures will drop sharply, with lows of minus 3℃for the next three nights.
    “It will generally stay on the cold side of average,” said Mr. Powell.
    The March misery comes at the end of the coldest winter for more than 30 years.
    Temperatures in December, January and February struggled to stay above zero, with the UK’s average 1.5℃, making it the deepest freeze since 1978—79.
    It claimed there was just a one-in-seven chance of a cold December to February.
    The agency also sadly predicted a “barbecue summer”, saying it was “quite optimistic” that it would be warmer and drier than average.
    Following the two mistakes, the Met Office has dropped its long-range seasonal forecasts and will instead publish a monthly prediction for Britain, updated once a week.
    In its defense, it says that while short-term forecasts are extremely accurate, Britain’s size and geographical position makes long-term predictions much more challenging.
    It also points out that it gave warning of any heavy falls of snow this winter.
    60. According to the passage, the weather on Tuesday in the south might be _______.
    A. dry but cloudy  B. sunny but chilly  C. sunny and warm  D. cloudy and chilly
    61. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
    A. British people can put away their winter clothes now.
    B. The Met Office has shortened its forecast range.
    C. The weather forecast becomes more and more accurate.
    D. The agency was quite confident of long-term predictions.
    62. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
    A. The big chill isn’t over yet                     B. A warm spring finally arrives
    C. A heavy snow is on the way                 D. The Met Office drops forecasts
    63. From the passage, we can conclude ________.
    A. the weather report is more and more important
    B. British people become worried about bad weather
    C. Britain has just experienced a very freezing winter
    D. The Met Office can always predict any heavy snow falls accurately

    Picture this situation. It is late afternoon and you are    36   . You have an important dinner engagement that evening so you    37    to take an hour nap. Instead of setting your alarm you ask a friend who is visiting to wake you in an hour. He   38   .
    Two hours later, your friend wakes you. You ask, “Why didn’t you wake me after one hour?” He    39    that he thought you asked him to wake you in two hours and that is what he said. You then have to run around and get ready    40  , muttering to yourself about how you    41   have set the alarm rather than asking your friend to wake you. Had you done that, you would not have been so    42    to get ready.
    Your conclusion is correct. Your    43   of what happened looked at the system you used. Your friend’s   44   to wake you resulted from a miscommunication.   45   he didn’t hear you correctly or you misspoke.
    46   at the situation from the point of view of being personally responsible is always better than blaming yourself or another. So how do you best be “responsible” in this situation? The answer is   47   in systems thinking.
    Dr. W. Edward Deming is the American statistician who is credited with   48   the quality practices to Japan.   49   his arrival in that country in 1950, the label “made in Japan” was synonymous with inferior(劣等的) quality. Now the same “made in Japan” label is synonymous(等同) with   50   quality.
    So what did Dr. Deming teach the Japanese that made such a  51   to the quality of their products? The answer is quite simple, yet profound.   52   on years of statistical analysis, Deming was able to validate(证明) that 94 % of all failures are not because people don’t want to do a good job. The fact is that   53   people want to do a good job.
    What, then, is the   54   if it’s not the people?
    It’s the system. The system failed in 94% of the    55   , not the people.

    Until I took Dr. Offutt’s class, I was an underachieving student. But I left that class
    50 _never to underachieve again. He not only taught me to think, he convinced me, as much by examples as words, that it was my  _51   obligation to do so and to serve others.
    Neither of us could know how our relationship would   52   over the years. When I first came back to DeMatha to teach English, I worked for Dr. Offutt, the department chair. My discussions with him as he mentored me were like graduate seminars in adolescent (青少年)  53    , classroom management and school leadership.
    After several years, I was   54     department chair, and our relationship shifted again. I thought that it might be  55   to chair the department, since all of my former English teachers were  56  there, but Dr. Offutt supported me  57    . He knew when to give me advice about curriculum, texts and personnel, and when to let me  58   my own course.

    There are going to be moments in life when you must make very important decisions. You will find many people  36  to offer you advice if you ask for it (and even if you don’t), but always remember that the life you  37  is yours and nobody else’s. It’s important to decide for yourself what’s important to you and what you want before you   38   others. Because while there will be times  39  outside advice proves wise, there will be at least as many times when it proves completely  40 . The only way to really evaluate other folks’ advice is to first learn everything that you can about whatever challenge you are  41 . Once you’ve done that, in most cases you should be able to make a wise decision  42   anyway.
    You were   43   with the ability to decide what is and what isn’t in your best interest. Most of the time, you will make the right decision and  44  the appropriate actions, and in thinking for yourself, you will become far more successful than if you had gone
    against your own   45  .
    Early on in my investment career, I made the mistake of  46  a few important business decisions on colleagues’ opinions instead of conducting the   47   necessary to make a wise decision. It wasn’t due to   48   on my part; no one could ever accuse me of that. But, being   49  to Wall Street, I intended to assume that my more senior  50  knew more than I did, and so I  51  too much significance to their opinions.
    You know what happened? Each of those investments ended in  52  . Eventually I stopped allowing myself to be influenced by  53  and began doing the work myself and making my own decisions. It took me until I was almost 30 years old to  54   this—it’s never too late for a person to change his approach both to   55  and to life.

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。
    A
    People in cities all over the world shop in supermarkets. Who decides what you buy in the supermarket? Do you decide? Does the supermarket decide?
    When you enter the supermarket, you see shelves full of food. You walk in the aisles between the shelves. You push a shopping cart and put your food in it.
    You probably hear soft, slow music as you walk along the aisles. This may be an attempt to please you, so you will enjoy shopping. Some supermarkets want to increase their profits by playing soft and slow music, because the slow music makes you walk slowly and you have more time to buy things.
    Fresh fruit and vegetables are usually put near the entrance. When you arrive at the supermarket, you concentrate on the kinds of fruit and vegetables you need first. Once you've got that out of the way, you can relax and do the rest of the shopping without any hurry. Besides, if you see fresh goods first, it gives you a "feel good" impression of freshness, so you can not help spending your money.
    Maybe you go to the meat department then. There is some meat on sale, and you want to find it. The manager of the supermarket knows where customers enter the meat department. The cheaper meat is at the other end of the meat department, away from where the customers enter. You have to walk past all the expensive meat before you find the cheaper meat. Maybe you will buy some of the expensive meat instead of the meat on sale.
    Most of the food in supermarkets is very attractive. It all says "Buy me quickly!" to the customers. The fresh fruit and vegetables say "Buy me quickly!" as you walk by. The expensive meat says "Buy me quickly!" The supermarket tells you what to buy.
    56. Some supermarkets play soft, slow music because it ________.
    A. can help customers get the things they want
    B. makes customers walk slowly and buy more
    C. can make customers relaxed and happy
    D. can tell customers exactly where to go
    57. The manager knows ________.
    A. where customers come from    B. which customers like slow music
    C. where fresh meat should be put  D. which customers like cheap meat
    58. When walking past the expensive meat, the customers will _______.
    A. possibly buy some                     B. pay no attention to it
    C. look for some cheap meat              D. feel uncomfortable
    59. If you see fresh goods first in the supermarket, ________.
    A. you know where to get things   B. it brings you good luck
    C. it makes you spend less money  D. you’ll get a fresh impression
    60. Supermarket managers make the food attractive so that ________.
    A. the customers will buy more              B. it looks very expensive
    C. the customers come often                D. it seems cheap and fine

    How do successful people think? What drives them? Interviews and investigations indicate that there are several keys to success that successful people share.
    First of all, successful people never blame someone or something outside of themselves for their failure to go ahead. They realize that their future lies in their own hands. They understand that they cannot control things in life, such as nature, the past and other people. But in the meantime, they are well aware that they can control their own thoughts and actions. They take responsibility for their life and regard this as one of the most empowering things they can do. Perhaps what most separates successful people from others is that they live a life “on purpose”---- they are doing what they believe they are put here to do. In their opinion, having a purpose in their life is the most important element that enables them to become fully functioning people. They hold that when they live their life on purpose, their main concern is to do the job right. They love what they do ---- and it shows. People want to do business with them because of their commitment(忠诚). To live their life on purpose, successful people find a cause they believe in and create a business around it. Besides, they never easily give up. Once they have set up goals in their life, they are willing to work hard whatever it takes to achieve their goals. Top achievers always bear in mind what they don’t have.
    Rather than be negative or depressing, they use the knowledge to spur themselves on and go after what they want energetically and passionately.
