10.Each time I see a balloon,my mind flies back to a memory of when I was a six-year-old girl.Itwas a rainy Sunday and my father had recently died.I asked my mom if Dad had gone to heaven."Yes,honey.Of course."she said."Can we write him a letter?,
She paused,the longest pause of my short life,and answered,"Yes."My heart jumped."How?Does the mailman go there?"I asked.
"No,but I have an idea."Mom drove to a party store and returned with a red balloon.I askedher what it was for.
"Just wait,honey.You'11 see."Mom told me to write my letter.Eagerly,I got my  favorite pen,and poured out my six-year-old heart in the form of blue ink.I wrote about my day,what I learned at school,how Mom was doing,and even about what happened in a story I had read.For a few minutes it was as if Dad were still alive.I gave the letter to Mom.She read it over,and a smile crossed her face.
She made a hole in the corner of the letter where she looped (缠绕)the balloon string.We went outside and she gave me the balloon.It was still raining."Okay,on the count of three,let go.One,two,three."
The balloon,carrying my letter,darted (猛冲)upward against the rain.We watched until it was swallowed by the mass of clouds.
Later I realized,like the balloon,that Dad had never let his sickness get him down.He was strong.No matter what he suffered,he'd persevere,dart up,and finally transcend (超越)this cold world and his sick body.He rose into sky and became something beautiful.I watched until the balloon disappeared into the gray and white and I prayed that his strength was hereditary (遗传的). I prayed to be a balloon.

解答 56.A.推理判断题.根据文章第三段中的She paused,the longest pause of my short life,and answered,"Yes."可知,母亲停顿了很长的时间,这意味着她思考了较长的时间才回答了女儿的问题.这说明女儿的问题难回答;故选A..
57.B.细节理解题.根据文章第6段Eagerly,I got my favorite pen,and poured out my six-year-old heart in the form of blue ink.I wrote about my day,what I learned at school,how Mom was doing,and even about what happened in a story I had read.可知我得知可以给父亲写信的时候非常高兴.立刻就行动了起来;故选B.

59.B.主旨大意题.通读全文,可知本文是一篇记叙文,文章以红气球为主线贯穿整个文章,红气球也象征着父亲,因此可知最合适的标题为红气球;故选B.

点评 考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力,做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确的选择.在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.

20.A.Dress for success
B.Offer positive comments
C.Limit what you say
D.Focus on your abilities
E.Likability counts
F.Ask for the job

Every year,millions of job hunters make great efforts to land a job they want.However,many of them fail,partly due to their lack of common knowledge in dealing with job interviews.Here are some of the principles that they should bear in mind when attending a job interview.
(61)D
While most employers know and understand that employees have their life business outside of work,they do not want to hear about them or see evidence of these getting in the way of work.Therefore,when attending a job interview,try not to mention the family difficulty or trouble that you are facing right now,and focus on all the things that you are capable of doing in your future work.
(62)A
Before going to attend an interview,search for some information about the employees of that company:What kind of work are they mostly doing?What kind of working clothes are preferred in their working conditions?Are there any specific requirements or taboos for the clothes?Prepare well and dress yourself properly in order to be considered professional at the first meeting.
(63)F
One of the biggest mistakes many job seekers make is ruining an otherwise successful interview by not actually asking for the job.It might seem unnecessary.After all,the job seeker would not have applied if he or she did not want the job.However,by asking for the job in the interview,the job seeker is sending a strong message to the employer that he or she is interested in the job and is enthusiastic about the opportunity.By saying"my main goal is to be working for you",you are actually demonstrating the type of interest and enthusiasm that any employer would like to hear form a candidate.
(64)B
When asked about your former work experience,keep your comments about your former boss or colleagues very positive.Even if your former working conditions were really bad or that you didn't get on well with your boss or colleagues,you are still supposed not to bite behind their backs.Otherwise,the interviewers may have the feeling that you will gossip or speak ill of them once they become your employers.
(65)E
In a real world interview,the personal connection established with the interviewer (i.e.,does he or she like you) could be the key factor in determining your employment fate.In an interview,this personal connection is often established within the first five minutes of the interview,and while a positive connection will not necessarily result in a job offer,a negative connection will almost always result in rejection.The lack of likability was a major reason behind the firing of many interviewees who were not able to make a positive impression on their interviewers.
