    2．No Grammar Errors
    I prefer Lynne Truss's words：I am a grammar"sticker"．And，like Truss-author of Eats，shoots & Leaves-I have a"zero tolerance"approach to grammar mistakes that make people look stupid．
    Now，Truss and I disagree on what it means to have"zero tolerance"．She thinks that people who mix up basic grammar"deserve to be struck by lightning，and buried in an unmarked grave"，while I just think they deserve to be passed over for a job-even if they are otherwise qualified for the position．
    Everyone who applies for a position at either of my companies，iFixit or Dozuki，takes a compulsory grammar test．If they can't distinguish between"to"and"too"，their applications go into the bin．
    Of course，we write for a living．iFixit．com is the world's largest online repair manual （指南），and Dozuki helps companies write their own technical documentation（证明文件），like work instructions and step-by-step user manuals．So，it makes sense that we've made a strong strike against grammar errors．
    But grammar is relevant for all companies．Yes，language is constantly changing，but that doesn't make grammar unimportant．Good grammar is credibility，especially on the Internet．And，for better or worse，people judge you if you can't tell the difference between"their""there"and"they're"．
    Good grammar makes good business sense-and not just when it comes to hiring writers．Writing isn't in the official job description of most people in our office．Still，we give our grammar test to everybody，including our salespeople，our operations staff，and our programmers．
    Grammar signifies more than just a person's ability to remember high school English．I've found that people who make fewer mistakes on a grammar test also make fewer mistakes when they are doing something completely unrelated to writing．Applicants who don't think writing is important are likely to think lots of other things also aren't important．
    63．The author agrees with Lynne Truss in thatA．
    A．grammar mistakes can't be tolerated
    B．books on grammar make people stupid
    C．people need to learn basic grammar
    D．grammar mistakes are unavoidable
    64．What's the author's attitude towards the job seekers who mix up basic grammar？C
    A．They aren't qualified for their jobs．
    B．They must be severely punished．
    C．They should be left out for a job．
    D．They have to correct their mistakes．
    65．Which of the following is TRUE of iFixit and Dozuki？A
    A．Grammar is quite important for their existence．
    B．They are companies where one learns grammar．
    C．They depend on grammar correction for a living．
    D．Only one of them has a compulsory grammar test．
    66．What can we learn from the passage？D
    A．"Zero tolerance"approach to grammar errors seems unfair．
    B．Grammar becomes unimportant as language is constantly changing．
    C．Companies giving grammar tests may have no good business sense．
    D．People who attach importance to grammar may pay attention to other things．

    Every day after （31）A，I would pedal down to the store．Soon after，I was writing up a sales slip（纸条）for an attractive plate when my father walked in．I had asked a dollar and the guy did not hesitate．I was very （32）D．My father glanced down at what I was doing，（33）Bthe customer and said，"You sure got a （34）C today．My employee gave you the price and that's the price．"
    Afterward，I asked my father，"What was that all （35）A？"
    It turned out that it was a（n） （36）C plate，worth a few hundred dollars．I was shocked．Here I was （37）D to help my father in the business and instead I was losing money for him．
    He said，"I could've stopped the sales if I'd wanted to．You were just writing up the slip and hadn't yet taken the money．（38）C，by civil law，you're （39）Aage．But，a man stands by his word and the word of his agent．"
    （40）Bmy father a small amount of money，but I learned a lifelong lesson in integrity （正直）．

    13．Being a normal，healthy nineteen-year-old，Rhona was in the habit of falling asleep the moment her head touched her pillow and not wakening up again until her mother called her at seven-thirty．
    When she awoke that morning in the grey light of early dawn，she had no idea what had disturbed her．Then she imagined，or thought she imagined，a faint smell of smoke around her nostrils （鼻孔）．What was strange，though，was the very fact that she was wide awake and，according to her bedside clock，it was only a quarter to four．
    She sat up，listening，alert．There was definitely a smell of burning．Rising quickly，she crossed to the window and opened it quietly，thinking it would be the remains of some garden bonfire．But it wasn't．She saw smoke and flames billowing out of a downstairs window next door．
    Barefoot and in pyjamas，she ran first to her parents'room，opening their door to call，"Mum!Dad!There's a fire next door!"
    Downstairs in a flash，she hurriedly dialed 999 and gave her name and address in clear，brief tones．By the time she had finished，Graeme，her elder brother，was coming running downstairs．
    "You go to their front door-I'll go to the back，"she said to him．
    As she banged on their neighbors'back door，she could hear a child crying in fear．Without stopping to think，Rhona lifted the large doorstop and smashed it through a glass panel，put her hand in and turned the key which opened the door．
    Through the smoke she saw a drying screen hung with white washing and she grabbed at as many of the damp clothes as she could on her way past towards the stairs．Halfway up she met Mr Parker carrying the baby and she hurriedly gave him some wet towels before doing the same for Mrs Parker who was behind him leading two-year-old Clare by the hand．
    "Crouch down as low as you can，"Rhona directed them as she took the child's other hand．Within a matter of seconds the family was safely outside．

    66．Rhona woke up early in the morning becauseC．
    A．her mother called her for an emergency
    B．she heard a baby crying in fear downstairs
    C．she smelt something burning in the air
    D．the alarm clock rang as she set it
    67．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage？D
    A．Rhona，together with her brother，Graeme，went to the Parkers'rescue．
    B．The Parkers escaped from the burning house together．
    C．Rhona broke into the house by back door after smashing the glass panel．
    D．Rhona covered her mouth with the damp clothes before entering the Parkers'．
    68．According to the article，Rhona can be best described asD．
    A．alert and timid
    B．courageous and stressed
    C．panic and sympathetic
    D．decisive and responsive
    69．It can be inferred that when the fire broke out，B．
    A．The Parkers were at a loss what to do
    B．Rhona had a good knowledge of survival skills
    C．Rhona showed the Parkers a safe fire escape
    D．Rhona's parents helped to save the scared children．

    14．There's nothing like a good night's sleep-but what does that really mean？It turns out that the answer depends not only on your age，but also on your lifestyle．Some people are productive and happy with fewer hours of sleep，while others need more．Still，experts can determine guidelines that work for most people．The National Sleep Foundation researched the topic and gave new recommendations this week．The foundation acknowledges that sleep needs will vary-lifestyle and stress should be taken into consideration-but their recommendations offer a general guideline．For example，teenagers （ 14-17 years old） ne 8-10 hours，sleep every day．
    To create the recommendations，some sleep and medical experts reviewed 312 articles from journals published during the last decade．This is the first time that any professional organization has developed age-specific recommended sleep durations based on a systematic review of the world scientific literature．
    A lack of sleep can be linked to weight gain，because that causes an increase in appetite，according to the foundation．It can also have serious consequences on the brain．People who d o not get enough sleep are at increased risk for depression，and can endanger others．Those that become sleepy while driving，for example，risk both their lives and the lives of those around them．
    Researchers also have found in the past that too much sleep can have negative effects．Low socioeconomic status and depression reportedly are significantly associated with longer sleep．However，experts nowadays find that research on oversleeping is still unconvincing and needs more attention．Currently，there is no strong evidence that sleeping too much has health consequences．There is，however，laboratory evidence that short sleep durations of four to five hours have negative consequences．We need similar laboratory studies to determin e whether long sleep durations result in physiological changes that could lead to disease before we make any recommendations against sleep extension．
     
    41．Which is TRUE about sleeping time？A
    A．The time you need for sleep is related to your state of mind．
    B．Experts'guideline for sleeping time applies to all the people．
    C．The less you sleep，the more productive you are．
    D．The more you sleep，the more energetic you are．
    42．How did die National Sleeping Foundation do the research？B
    A．By interviewing different people．B．By reading lots of articles．
    C．By consulting other experts．D．By doing systematic experiments．
    43．The research shows that people without enough sleep willB
    A．lose some weight                                       
    B．eat more food  
    C．dream during their sleep                             
    D．drive faster than usual
    44．From Paragraph 4，we can learn thatC．
    A．too much sleep may result in social changes   
    B．researchers now agree with those ill the past
    C．more research on oversleeping is needed      
    D．research on oversleeping is quite convincing
    45．From which section of a newspaper is the passage most probably taken？A
    A．Health
    B．Psychology    
    C．Sport
    D．Education．
