19.Years old,I loved to go fishing with my dad.But the only thing that wasn′t very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn't catch anything.I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why.He always answered,"Son,if you want to catch a fish,you have to think like a fish",I remember being even more upset then because,"I'm not a fish!"I didn't know how to think like a fish.Besides,I reasoned,how could what I think influence what a fish does.
   As I got a little older I began to understand what my dad really meant.So,I read some books on fish.And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings.I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature.That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer.Besides,water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade.Yet,fish don't have any eyelids(眼皮)and the sun hurts their eyes…The more I understood fish,the more I became effective at finding and catching them.
   When I grew up and entered the business world,I remember hearing my first boss say,"We all need to think like sales people."But it didn't completely make sense.My dad never once said,"If you want to catch a fish you need to think like a fisherman."What he said was,"You need to think like a fish."Years later,with great efforts to promote long-term services to people much older and richer than me,I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers.It is not an easy job.I will show you how in the following chapters.

A.He could not catch a fish.
B.His father was not patient with him.

57.What did the author's father really mean?D

58.According to the author,fish are most likely to be foundD
A.in deep water on sunny days

分析 本文敘述了作者小時候和父親一起去釣魚,父親釣了很多魚而他卻釣不到一條魚,父親教授他釣魚的方法:要像魚一樣思考,才能釣到魚.后來作者發(fā)現(xiàn):越了解魚,就越能有效的找到魚和抓住魚.通過釣魚的道理,作者在商業(yè)工作中也認識到:從事商業(yè)銷售時要像消費者一樣去思考.

解答 ADDBB
56.A 細節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第一段的"But that wasn't very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn't catch anything.I usually got pretty upset."可知作者感到難過,是因為他捉不到一條魚.故選A.
57.D 推理判斷題.根據(jù)第二段的"The more I understood fish,the more I became effective at finding and catching them."我越了解魚,我越能有效地找到魚和抓住魚,可知此處父親的意思是要我了解釣魚的方法,故選D.
58.D 推理判斷題.根據(jù)第二段的"That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water"可知,魚喜歡在淺水里,不喜歡在深水里,故排除A、B兩項.根據(jù)"water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade.Yet,fish don't have any eyelids(眼皮)and the sun hurts their eyes."可知魚喜歡呆在陰涼處,不喜歡呆在陽光直射的地方,故排除C項.D項水邊樹下的淺水處,是魚喜歡呆的地方,所以此處更有可能發(fā)現(xiàn)魚.故選D.
59.B 推理判斷題.根據(jù)最后一段的"I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers我逐漸了解我們需要像消費者一樣去思考,這與父親的"You need to think like a fish"你需要像魚一樣思考相似,因此這是父親的話給他的啟發(fā).故選B.
60.B 推理判斷題.根據(jù)最后一段的"It is not an easy job.I will show you how in the following chapters"這不是一份輕松的工作,我將在下面幾章里向你們展示如何去做,可知這是一本關(guān)于銷售的暢銷書.故選B.

點評 閱讀理解題測試考生在閱讀基礎(chǔ)上的邏輯推理能力,要求考生根據(jù)文章所述事件的邏輯關(guān)系,對未說明的趨勢或結(jié)局作出合理的推斷;或根據(jù)作者所闡述的觀點理論,對文章未涉及的現(xiàn)象、事例給以解釋.考生首先要仔細閱讀短文,完整了解信息,準(zhǔn)確把握作者觀點.

11.China is a land of bicycles.At least it was back in 1992 when I traveled the country.Back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle.Millions of them,all black.Cars were rare.Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year,I've found the opposite is true.There are millions of cars.However,people still use their bicycles to get around.For many,it's the easiest and cheapest way to travel today.Bicycles also come in different colors-silver,green,red,blue,yellow,whatever you want.
It's fun watching people biking.They rush quickly through crossroads,move skillfully through traffic,and ride even on sidewalks (人行道).Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just can't provide.
Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture,I decided to buy a bicycle.Great weather accompanied my great buy.I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.
My first ride home was orderly (守秩序的).To be safe,I stayed with a"pack"of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times.I didn't want to get hit.So I took the ride carefully.
Crossing the streets was the biggest problem.It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States.The streets here were wide,so crossing took time,skill and a little bit of luck.
I finally made it home.The feeling on the bicycle was amazing.The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful.I was sitting on top of the world as I passed by places and people.Biking made me feel alive.
24.According to the author,why are bicycles still popular in China today?C
A.Because they are traditional and safe.
B.Because they are colorful and available.
C.Because they are convenient and inexpensive.
D.Because they are fast and environment friendly.
25.The author decided to buy a bicycle because he intendedA.
A.to experience local culture               
B.to use it for transport
C.to ride it for fun                    
D.to improve his riding skills
26.How did the author feel about his street crossing?D
A.It was boring.
B.It was wonderful.
C.It was lively.
D.It was difficult.
27.Which of the following best describes the author's biking experience?B

8.When you first arrive in Oxford,it may take a little while for you to find your way around.The university is a large organization that is fully integrated into the city and has been evolving for 800 years.Some of the first things our students do when they arrive include finding a bike (most students in Oxford find cycling is the best way to go around),setting up a bank account,getting their computer and mobile phone working,finding their department,getting to know their college and working out the best places to socialize.
  One of the major events you will experience shortly after"coming up"to Oxford is matriculation.Matriculation is held at the University's Sheldonian Theatre and is the ceremony at which you are formally admitted to the university.
  International students are invited to an orientation day at the start of the academic year.Sessions run throughout the day that will give you practical information about living and studying in UK and introduce you to other graduate students from all over the world who are starting their studies at Oxford at the same time as you,as well as to current Oxford graduate students and staff who will be able to help and advise you.The day covers topics such as studying and learning in the Oxford system,University services,information on living in Britain and culture differences,as well as addressing practical issues such as employment,immigration and visas,health and safety.You can choose which talks to attend and at the end of the day there is a social hour so you can meet fellow students.
  Another good thing to experience early is college dining.Most colleges have a tradition of regular formal hall dinners,which consist of three or four courses,and the atmosphere of an evening out in a nice restaurant.On some of these occasions you can invite people around to your college for dinner and then they may return the favor.In this way,you can get to know people studying your own and other subjects at the same time as visiting many of the historical college grounds and dining halls.
Further information on your first few weeks at Oxford is available via the Students Gateway on our website,and you can get first-hand accounts of what life at Oxford is like by watching videos of students talking about their experiences on our Wall of 100 Faces.
24.For a newcomer to Oxford,what does he have to do first?C
A.to work out what to major in.
B.to open a qq account.
C.to get a bike to go around.
D.to buy a new mobile phone.
25.What is matriculation?B
A.Performances held at the Sheldonian Theatre.
B.A ceremony when students are formally admitted to Oxford.
C.The best places to socialize.
D.A special day for International students to start academic.
26.Which talk can students attend on the orientation day?D
A.Studying in the Cambridge system.
B.Practical issue like employment,immigration,visas,health and insurance.
C.Talks on how to meet fellow students.
D.University services about the life in Britain and cross-culture barrier.
