6．Being less than perfectly well-dressed in a business setting can result in a feeling of great discomfort that may well require treatment to eliminate （remove）．And the sad truth is that"clothing mismatches"on the job can ruin the day of the person who is wearing the inappropriate attire（著裝）--and the people with whom he or she comes in contact．
Offices vary when it comes to dress codes．Some businesses have very high standards for their employees and set strict guidelines for office attire，while others maintain a more relaxed attitude．However，it is always important to remember that no matter what your company's attitude is regarding what you wear，you are working in a business environment and you should dress properly．Certain items may be more appropriate for evening wear than for a business meeting，just as shorts and a T-shirt are better suited for the beach than for an office environment．Your attire should reflect both your environment and your position．A senior vice president has a different image to maintain than that of a secretary or sales assistant．Like it or not，you will be judged by your personal appearance．
This is never more apparent than on"dress-down days"，when what you wear can say more about you than any business suit ever could．In fact，people will pay more attention to what you wear on dress-down days than on"business professional"days．Thus，when dressing in"business casual"clothes，try to put some good taste into your wardrobe choices，and recognize that the"real"definition of business casual is to dress just one notch（等級） down from what you would normally wear of business-professional attire days．
Remember，there are borders between your career and our social life．You should dress one way for play and another way when you mean business．Always ask yourself where you are going and how other people will be dressed when you get there．Is the final destination the opera，the beach，or the office？Dress properly and you will discover the truth in the principle that clothes make the man--and the woman．Unless you are sure what to wear，it pays to dress slightly traditionally than the situation demands．

28．What is the passage mainly about？C
A．The differences between professional and casual dress．
B．The relationship between career and social life．
C．How to dress properly in a business setting．
D．Dressing codes vary in different situations．
29．Which of the following statements is true？B
A．Every company has strict rules regarding office dress．
B．You should dress according to the business setting even when there are no fixed rules
C．You can wear whatever you like if your company doesn't have high standards for it．
D．In companies with relaxed rules on office dress，you can't spot a manager among others．
30．Which statement best describes"dress down days"？A
A．People are usually more careful about what they wear on dress-down days．
B．People's clothes on dress-down days don't receive much attention
C．We can't judge a person's taste by his clothes on dress-down days
D．On dress-down days，you can wear whatever you like．
31．Which of the following is NOT the rule offered in the passage regarding business dress？A
A．Remember to ask others for advice when you don't know what to dress．
B．Dress a bit traditionally if you are not sure what to wear．
C．For a business meeting and a concert，you should dress differently．
D．Think about how other guests will wear if you are invited to a dinner．

解答 答案：CBAA．
28：C．主旨大意題．縱觀全文，可知這篇文章是關(guān)于在商業(yè)領(lǐng)域如何恰當?shù)拇┮拢蔆選項正確．
29：B．細節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)However，it is always important to remember that no matter what your company's attitude is regarding what you wear，you are working in a business environment and you should dress properly．可知即使沒有固定的規(guī)定，也應(yīng)該按照商業(yè)背景穿衣，故B選項正確．
30：A．詞義猜測題．根據(jù)This is never more apparent than on"dress-down days"，when what you wear can say more about you than any business suit ever could．可知"dress-down days"，指的是人們更關(guān)注穿衣的時候．故A選項正確．
31：A．細節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)最后一段的句子：Always ask yourself where you are going and how other people will be dressed when you get there．可知BC是對的，從最后一句話Unless you are sure what to wear，it pays to dress slightly traditionally than the situation demands．可知D是對的，所以可以說A項的表述是錯的．故A選項正確．

And as if film-makers were magically able to save the best for last，critics（評論家） completely agree that The Deathly Hallows，Part 2is the best film of the entire series and there has been little negative（負面的） to say about the performances of the film's stars．When they were 10or 11years old，Daniel Radcliffe，Emma Watson and Rupert Grint have grown up on the big screen．They grew in their character as the story was told through the years．
As the story draws to a close，the final Harry Potter film is set to break the $1billion mark in worldwide sales．And even though the film series is finally over，J．K．Rowling's Harry Potter will live on in different forms of merchandising （附帶產(chǎn)品），including major theme parks，action figures and almost certainly，various versions of the story．
27．According to the author，we know Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows，Part 2A．
A．was expected to be very successful in making money
B．was poorly received by most of the movie critics in the US
C．is not as good as the first several Harry Potter movies
D．is not as good as movie-goers expected．
28．What is implied about the performances of the film's stars？B

14．Texting（發(fā)短信）walkers aren't just an annoyance to other walkers，Australian researchers armed with movie special-effects technology have determined scientifically that they're threats to themselves．Using motion-capture technology similar to that used for films，researchers concluded that texting while walking not only affects balance but also the ability to walk in straight line．
"Some people like checking emails while walking to work in the morning"said the study co-author Hoorn，"but they may not know it has a serious effect on the safety of themselves"．Other facts have also proved this．A tourist from Taiwan walked off a pier near Melbourne last month while checking Facebook，bringing a sudden and icy end to a penguin-watching visit．Another person who was too wrapped up in his phone to notice dangers walked straight into the fountain in front of a shopping mall．
The Australian study involved 27 volunteers，a third of whom admitted having knocked into objects while texting．They were asked to walk 8.5 meters three times-once without phones，once while reading text and once while writing text，when eight cameras recorded their actions．
They found the volunteers using the phone walked slower，and，more seriously，they locked their arms and elbows in like"robots"，which forced their heads to move more，throwing themselves off balance．"In a pedestrian（步行的）environment，inability to maintain a straight path would be likely to increase potential for traffic accidents"，said Mr．Hoorn．"The best thing to do is to step aside and stop，or keep off the phone．"
Authorities world-wide have taken note．Signs on Hong Kong's subway system advise passengers in three languages to keep their eyes off their phones．Police and transport authorities have highlighted the danger in Singapore，where the Straits Times newspaper recently declared cellphone-distracted road crossing as"bad habit No.2"contributing to the rising number of road deaths．Some U．S．states，including New York and Arkansas，are considering bans on what they're calling phone jaywalking（走路不遵守交通規(guī)則）．

28．According to the passage，people texting while walking usuallyC．
A．do not influence other walkers        B．do harm to their eyes
C．put themselves in danger                D．can still walk straight
29．Which of the following words has the closest meaning to"wrapped up"in Paragraph 2？B
A．a(chǎn)bsent-minded          B．a(chǎn)bsorbed
C．a(chǎn)nnoyed                    D．Confused
30．The two examples in Paragraph 2are given in order toA．
A．show texting walkers may harm themselves
B．prove texting walkers are threats to others
C．a(chǎn)nalyze the causes of the danger
D．a(chǎn)muse the readers
31．About the Australian study，we know thatD．
A．the volunteers using phones while walking moved normally
B．ten volunteers admitted having bumped into things while texting
C．the volunteers were divided into three groups during the study
D．texting walkers are exposed to greater possibility of traffic accidents．

11．An early morning winter storm had brought several inches of snow to my small town in the mountains．Schools were canceled，roads were dangerous and all I wanted to do was to stay in bed．Still，I knew I had to get the day started so I put on warm clothes and walked outside．The snow got all over my shoes．The cold wind dried my lips and my eyes．My 47-year-old back ached in anticipation（預(yù)想）of the shoveling（鏟雪）I would have to do if the snow didn't stop soon．
Yet，when I looked out on the white blanket that covered the ground，I couldn't help but smile a bit．It was so beautiful．It softened the bare trees and hid the dead grass．In the distance I could hear the sound of the snowplow（雪犁） on the road，the barking of a happy dog and the laughter of children playing outside，enjoying their way off from school．
The sweet music of that laughter brought back a hundred memories of winters past．I remembered catching snowflakes （雪花） on my tongue，building snowmen，making snow angles，running down hills and always losing snowball fights with first my brothers and then my own children．Standing there in that warm coat of memories made the wind a little less cold and my back a little less sore（疼痛的）．I turned up my head，stuck out my tongue and for the first time in years caught a snowflake on it．It tasted so fresh and clean．It tasted like youth，like joy and like love．
May you always feel young in spirit，no matter how old or achy your body may be．May you always delight in the simple joys of life．May you always share your happiness with the hearts of children．And may you always give your love，your light，your laughter and your warmth to others even on the coldest days．

25．What was the author's first reaction when he knew it snowed heavily？A
A．He was upset．B．He was happy．C．He was thankful．D．He was moved．
26．From which senses did the author describe the joy of having snow？D
A．Taste and smell．B．Sight and smell．C．Smell，hearing and taste．D．Sight，hearing and taste．
27．What does the author mainly want to tell us with this article？D
A．Appreciate every snowstorm you spend with your family．
B．Snow brings both fun and trouble．
C．Memories can change our opinion．
