科目：高中英語 來源：2013屆廣東省廣寧縣廣寧中學(xué)高三2月月考英語試卷（帶解析） 題型：閱讀理解

When you’re an employee of a company, no matter the size, it’s common to see co-workers promoted, or transferred to a different department. But there is another way to move around—by creating a new position for yourself. I did this several years ago, though I wasn’t actively looking for a different job.
In 2007, I was hired at the Transamerica Life Insurance Company, as a customer service representative in the distributions services department. I processed requests for distributions from our annuity(養(yǎng)老金)policy holders around the country. Someone might have forgotten to sign a form, for example, or might have omitted security information. To solve the problem, I’d mail the person a letter.
The company had been through several combinations, so in our department alone we had a collection of about 140 templates(模板) for letters related to distributions. The longer I worked with the letters, the more I saw how they could be improved. Some had overlapping information and could be combined. Some had incorrect grammar or needed updating. I also noticed that industry terminology(專業(yè)術(shù)語) wasn’t standard across all the versions.
When I told my department supervisor about this in 2008, she agreed that the letters needed revamping. She said I should stop what I’d been doing and start the new work. In a relatively short time, I was able to make numerous improvements and reduce the number of letters to 70. It was an informal job change until a managers’ meeting several months later.
At that meeting, a vice president who was unaware of my new work mentioned that the division’s entire stock of 1,700 letters should be reviewed. My manager told her that she knew the perfect person for the job—me. The position was still considered temporary when I took on the extra tasks, but I was able to show that the work had value, and I was officially promoted and given a raise in November 2009.
【小題1】According to Paragraph 1, which of the following statements is true?

A．The author admired those who got a promotion in his company.
B．It is no surprise to see people around us change their positions.
C．The author tried his best to get a promotion in his company
D．The author was eager to seek another job.
【小題2】Which of the following problems with the letters is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A．Some information was overlooked.
B．Some information needed to be united.
C．Some had grammatical mistakes.
D．Industry terminology didn’t meet the standard.
【小題3】The underlined word “revamping” in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to        .
A．repeatingB．rebuildingC．improvingD．strengthening
【小題4】The author started to review the letters when        .
A．he was hired by the company
B．he was promoted
C．he was recommended at a managers’ meeting
D．his department supervisor agreed his idea
【小題5】Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A．Where there is will, there is a way.
B．Creating a position, and earning a promotion.
C．Don’t let the chance go, when it comes.
D．Ways to get a promotion.

Empathy
Last year, researchers from the University of Michigan reported that empathy, the ability to understand other people, among college students had dropped sharply over the past 10 years. __71__ Today, people spend more time alone and are less likely to join groups and clubs.
Jennifer Freed, a co-director of a teen program, has another explanation. Turn on the TV, and you’re showered with news and reality shows full of people fighting, competing, and generally treating one another with no respect. __72__
There are good reasons not to follow those bad examples. Humans are socially related by nature. __73__ Researchers have also found that empathetic teenagers are more likely to have high self-respect. Besides, empathy can be a cure for loneliness, sadness, anxiety, and fear.
Empathy is also an indication of a good leader. In fact, Freed says, many top companies report that empathy is one of the most important things they look for in new managers. __74__ “Academics are important. But if you don’t have emotional intelligence, you won’t be as successful in work or in your love life,” she says.
What’s the best way to up your EQ (情商）? For starters, let down your guard and really listen to others. __75__
To really develop empathy, you’d better volunteer at a nursing home or a hospital, join a club or a team that has a diverse membership, have a “sharing circle” with your family, or spend time caring for pets at an animal shelter.

A．Everyone is different, and levels of empathy differ from person to person.
B．Having relationships with other people is an important part of being human—and having empathy is decisive to those relationships.
C．Humans learn by example—and most of the examples on it are anything but empathetic.
D．“One doesn’t develop empathy by having a lot of opinions and doing a lot of talking,” Freed says.
E. Empathy is a matter of learning how to understand someone else—both what they think and how they feel.
F. Good social skills—including empathy—are a kind of “emotional intelligence” that will help you succeed in many areas of life.
G. That could be because so many people have replaced face time with screen time, the researchers said.
