A
I was in a rush as always, but this time it was for an important date I just couldn’t be late for! I found myself at a
checkout counter behind an elderly woman seemingly in no hurry as she paid for her groceries. A PhD student with not a
lot of money, I had hurried into the store to pick up some flowers. I was in a huge rush, thinking of my upcoming
evening. I did not want to be late for this date.
We were in Boston, a place not always known for small conversation between strangers. The woman stopped
unloading her basket and looked up at me. She smiled. It was a nice smile-warm and reassuring-and I retuned her gift by
smiling back.
“Must be a special lady,” whoever it is that will be getting those beautiful flowers,” she said.
“Yes, she’s special,” I said, and then to my embarrassment, the words kept coming out. “It’ s only our second date,
but somehow I am just having the feeling she’s‘the one ，’”jokingly, I added, “The only problem is that I can’t figure
out why she’d want to date a guy like me.”
“Well, I think she’s very lucky to have a boyfriend who brings her such lovely flowers and who is obviously in
love with her,” the woman said. ”My husband used to bring me flowers every week-even when tines were tough and we
didn’t have much money. Those were incredible days; be was very romantic and-of course- I miss him since he’s passed
away.”
I paid for my flowers as she was gathering up her groceries. There was no doubt in my mind as I walked up to her.
I touched her on the shoulder and said “You were right, you know. These flowers are indeed for a very special lady.” I
handed the flowers and thanked her for such a nice conversation.
It took her a moment to realize that I was giving her the flowers I had just purchased. “You have a wonderful
evening,” I said. I left her with a big smile and my heart warmed as I saw her smelling the beautiful flowers.
I remember being slightly late for my date that night and telling my girlfriend the above story. A couple of years
later, when I finally worked up the courage to ask her to marry me, she told me that this story had helped to seal it for
her-that was the night than I won her heart .

Plants can’t communicate by moving or making sounds, as most animals do. Instead, plants produce volatile
compounds, chemicals that easily change from a liquid to a gas. A flower’s sweet smell, for example, comes from
volatile compounds that the plant produces to attract insects such as bugs and bees.
Plants can also detect volatile compounds produced by other plants. A tree under attack by hungry insects, for
instance, may give off volatile compounds that let other trees know about the attack, In response, the other trees may send
off chemicals to keep the bugs away- or even chemicals that attract the bugs’ natural enemies.
Now scientists have created a quick way to understand what plants are saying: a chemical sensor(传感器) called an
electronic nose. The “e-nose” can tell compounds that crop plants make when they’re attacked. Scientists say the e-nose
could help quickly detest whether plants are being eaten by insects. But today the only way to detect such insects is to
visually inspect individual plants. This is a challenging task for managers of greenhouses, enclosed gardens that can
house thousands of plants.
The research team worked with an e-nose that recognizes volatile compounds. Inside the device, 13 sensors
chemically react with volatile compounds. Based on these interactions, the e-nose gives off electronic signals that the
scientists analyze using computer software.
To test the nose, the team presented it with healthy leaves from cucumber, pepper and tomato plants, all common
greenhouse crops. Then the scientists collected samples of air around damaged leaves from each type of crop. These
plants had been damaged by insects, or by scientists who made holes in the leaves with a hole punch (打孔器).
The e-nose, it turns out, could identify healthy cucumber, pepper and tomato plants based on the volatile compounds
they produce. It could also identify tomato leaves that had been damaged. But even more impressive, the device could tell
which type of damage – by insects or with a hole punch – had been done to the tomato leaves.
With some fine tuning, a device like the e-nose could one day be used in greenhouses to quickly spot harmful bugs, the
researchers say. A device like this could also be used to identify fruits that are perfectly ripe and ready to pick and eat,
says Natalia Dudareve, a biochemist at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Ind. who studies smells of flowers and
plants. Hopefully, scientists believe, the device could bring large benefits to greenhouse managers in the near future.
49. We learn from the text that plants communicate with each other by______.
A. making some sounds
B. waving their leaves
C. producing some chemicals D. sending out electronic signals
50. What did the scientists do to find out if the e-nose worked?
A. They presented it with all common crops..
B. They fixed 13 sensors inside the device.
C. They collected different damaged leaves.
D. They made tests on damaged and healthy leaves.
51. According to the writer, the most amazing thing about the e –nose is that it can ______.
A. pick out ripe fruits
B. spot the insects quickly
C. distinguish different damages to the leaves
D. recognize unhealthy tomato leaves
52. We can infer from the last paragraph that the e-nose_____.
A. is unable to tell the smell of flowers
B. is not yet used in greenhouses
C. is designed by scientists at Purdue
D. is helpful in killing harmful insects

In ancient Egypt, the pharaoh(法老) treated the poor message runner like a prince when he arrived at the palace, if
he brought good news. However, if the exhausted runner had the misfortune to bring the pharaoh unhappy news, his head
was cut off.
Shades of that spirit spread over today’s conversations. Once a friend and I packed up some peanut butter and
sandwiches for an outing. As we walked light-heartedly out the door, picnic basket in hand, a smiling neighbor looked up
at the sky and said, “Oh boy, bad day for a picnic. The weatherman says it’s going to rain.” I wanted to strike him on the
race with the peanut butter and sandwiches. Not for his stupid weather report, for his smile.
Several months ago I was racing to catch a bus. As I breathlessly put my handful of cash across the Greyhound
counter, the sales agent said with a broad smile, “Oh that bus left rive minutes ago.” Dreams of head-cutting!
It’s not the news that makes someone angry. It’s the unsympathetic attitude with which it’s delivered. Everyone
must give bad mews from time to time, and winning professionals do it with the proper attitude. A doctor advising a
patient that she needs an operation dose it in a caring way A boss informing an employee he didn’t get the job takes on a
sympathetic tone. Big winners know, when delivering any bad news, they should share the feeling of the receiver.
Unfortunately, many people are not aware of this. When you’re tired from a long flight, has a hotel clerk
cheerfully said that your room isn’t ready ye? When you had your heart set on the toast beef, has your waiter merrily told
you that he just served the last piece? It makes you as traveler or diner want to land your fist right on their unsympathetic
faces.
Had my neighbor told me of the upcoming rainstorm with sympathy, I would have appreciated his warning. Had the
Greyhound salesclerk sympathetically informed me that my bus had already left, I probably would have said, “Oh, that‘s
all right. I’ll catch the next one.” Big winners, when they bear bad news, deliver bombs with the emotion the bombarded
(被轰炸的) person is sure to have .
53. In Paragraph 1, the writer tells the story of the pharaoh to
.
A. make a comparison B. introduce a topic
C. describe a scene D. offer an argument
54. In the writer’s opinion, his neighbor was _____________.
A. friendly
B. warm-hearted
C. not considerate
D. not helpful
55. From “Dreams of head-cutting!”(Paragraph 3), we learn that the writer
.
A. was mad at the sales agent.
B. was reminded of the cruel pharaoh
C. wished that the sales agent would have had dreams.
D. dreamed of cutting the sales agent’s head that night.
56. What is the main idea of the text?
A. Delivering bad news properly is important in communication.
B. Helping others sincerely is the key to business success.
C. Receiving bad news requires great courage.
D. Learning ancient traditions can be useful.

Four people in England, back in 1953, stared at photo 51. it wasn’t much –a picture showing a black X. But three of
these people won the Nobel Prize for figuring out what the photo really showed—the shape of DNA. The discovery
brought fame and fortune to scientists James Watson, Francis crick, and Maurice Wilkins. The fourth, the one who
actually made the picture, was left out.
Her name was Rosalind Franklin. “She should have been up there,” says historian Mary Bowden. “If her photo
hadn’t been there, the others couldn’t have come up with the structure.” one reason Franklin was missing was that she
had died of cancer four years before the Nobel decision. But now scholar doubt that Franklin was not only robbed of her
life by disease but robbed of credit by her competitions.
At Cambridge University in the 1950s, Watson and Crick tried to make models by cutting up shapes of DNA’s parts
and then putting them together. In the meantime, at king’s college in London, Franklin and Wilkins shone X-rays at the
molecule(分子). The rays produced patterns reflecting the shape.
But Wilkins and Franklin’s relationship was a lot rockier than the celebrated teamwork of Watson and Crick.
Wilkins thought Franklin was hired to be his assistant. But the college actually employed her to take over the DNA
project.
What she did was produce X-ray pictures that told Watson and Crick that one of their early models was inside out.
And she was not shy about saying so. That angered Watson, who attacked her in return,” Mere inspection suggested that
she would not easily bend. Clearly she had to go or be put in her place.
As Franklin’s competitors, Wilkins, Watson and Crick had much to gain by cutting her out of the little group of
researchers, says historian Pnina Abir-Am. In 1962 at the Nobel Prize awarding ceremony, Wilkins thanked 13
colleagues by name before he mentioned Franklin. Watson wrote his book laughing at her. Crick wrote in 1974 that
“Franklins was only two steps away from the solution.”
No, Franklin was the solution.” She contributed more than any other player to solving the structure of DNA. She must
be considered a co-discoverer,” Abir-Am says. This was backed up by Aaron Klug, who worked with Franklin and later
won a Nobel Prize himself. Once described as the “Dark Lady of DNA”, Franklin is finally coming into the light.
57. What is the text mainly about?
A. The disagreements among DNA researchers.
B. The unfair treatment of Franklin.
C. The process of discovering DNA.
D The race between two teams of scientists.
58. Watson was angry with Franklin because she ______.
A. took the lead in the competition
B. Kept her results from him
C. proved some of his findings wrong
D. shared her data with other scientists
59. Why is Franklin described as “Dark Lady of DNA”?
A. She developed pictures in dark labs.
B. She discovered the black X------ the shape of DNA.
C. Her name was forgotten after her death.
D. Her contribution was unknown to the public.
60. What is the writer’s attitude toward Wilkins, Watson and Crick?
A. Disapproving
B. Respectful.
C. Admiring
D. Doubtful

Sheri Poe
Ryka Inc.
Since I started this company in my kitchen seven years ago, I always dreamt of what it would be some day. Focusing
on that goal helps me get through tough times .To get the kind of success that you want; you need to dream big .That’s
the starting point. Every success story begins with big dreams. You need to have big dreams for yourself, like being
somebody rich, famous or fulfilled .You need to have a clear goal of what you want to achieve.
Also, I think it’s really important that the people you’re working with are as committed to the same goal as you are,
so you can support each other and keep each other energetic.

Anita Roddick
The Body Shop Inc.
In America, we have a shop in Harlem where 50 percent of the profits go into the community development, and the
other 50 percent go toward the funding of a similar shop elsewhere in the United States. The pride that shop brings to the
staff and local people inspired me.
What The Body Shop does successfully is use our facilities in the street and shopping centers to talk about real human
issues like AIDS, recycling, human rights, and community service or to encourage people to speak out against anything
they consider to be unjust. Knowing our products are symbols of social change is really encouraging.
C
Ben Cohen
Ben &Jerry’s Homemade Inc.
I’m energized by the people I work with. I’m very relationship-driven, which a think is different from most
entrepreneurs. I’m inspired by doing things that are not normal and that most people think don’t fit into the business
world or don’t make any sense.
In business, you are judged by the company you keep—from your management team, board of directors, and strategic
partners. Maybe the lady you met in a trade association meeting can help you secure funding, or the gentleman at a
conference can provide you with management advice.

Richard Melman
Lettuce Entertain You Enterprises
A number of years ago, I was interviewed by someone who was writing a book on enterprises. He asked me. ”What’s
the opposite of work?” I answered. ”Lazy” He started laughing and said, ” Believe it or not, a lot of entrepreneurs say the
same thing.”
The average person thinks the opposite of work is play, but to an entrepreneur, work is play. I think it all adds up to
having fun. it’s fun to create; it’s fun to entertain, and it’s fun to make people happy with our service. When it stops being
fun, I’ll stop doing it.

Frank Toskan
Make-Up Art Cosmetics (M.A.C)
One of the nicest things anyone ever said to me was, “I hate makeup, but I love M.A.C.” That’s what moves me on.
Even people who don’t wear makeup can appreciate our company, what it stands for, its values, and the way we do
business.
We work from an inverted pyramid, where the customers are always at the top. Our customers inspire me and keep
me going. They and our staff, not money, make me enthusiastic. If I had stayed in this business just for the money, I
would have closed down years ago.

You can’t be everything to everybody. Each of us has our own strengths and weaknesses. To be effective, you need
to identify your strengths and concentrate on them, you’ll become more successful if you are able to channel your efforts
to areas that you do best. In business, for example, if you know you are good at marketing, then give it full play. Seek
help or assistance in areas that you may be poor at, such as accounting or bookkeeping. To turn your weakness into
strength, consider taking hands-on learning or training.

One rainy day while I was walking home with one of my friend, a truck came to a stop besides us. The driver put the
window down and offered us a umbrella because he found we were wet through. I stood there and couldn’t believe in that
a complete stranger is so thoughtful. The man insisted, so I grateful accepted the offer, thanked him and watched the
truck disappear down the road. This man might need the umbrella himself, and he preferred to give it to everyone else. It
was a lesson to us that it was possible give without expect anything in return.
