Still, the milestone had to be marked．24 wasn’t going to let her get away with a Stouffer’s frozen dinner and a movie video, 25 this was all she said she wanted．

第三节: 阅读理解（共20小题，每题2分，满分40分）

A

Employees are being flooded with too much information that has little to do with their work, according to a new survey.

On average, white-collar workers spend 51 percent of their work time receiving and processing information. Only one third of it was relevant to their work, the survey found. Information overload for white collar workers has become a global issue. The huge amount of information has already affected their efficiency in management as well as their performance at work.

Buried with e-mails

Every morning, a secretary at the human resources department of an auto parts company opens her e-mail box, only to find it crammed with at least 50 unread mails. For her, even scanning through these e-mails every day takes at least half an hour. Some of her colleagues are not so lucky — they have to read at least 100.

Bothered with calls

Telephone calls are also causing a problem. More than 40 percent white-collar workers chose mobile phones as the preferred way to communicate important and urgent business matters.

Talking saves time and energy over the clicking, reading and replying to e-mails, but phone calls are also more distracting(分心的). While answering a call, a clerk is likely to put away a much more important task at hand and start the business being talked about on the phone.

Solution? Not yet.

Many companies start with providing staff with better computers, better Internet access and more advanced gadgets(装置). For example, staff members above a certain level in one company will be provided with a blackberry phone for easier access to their e-mails. The company has also organized many lectures on efficient ways of e-mail management. Yet most white-collar workers think their companies can do more.

41．What does the new survey find about white-collar workers?

A．They spend 51% of their work time on meetings.

B．Only half of the information they receive is useful.

C．Over 60% of them prefer to use the telephone.

D．Some of them have to read at least 100 e-mails every day.

42．Telephone calls cause a problem because ________.

A．they take up the time to receive and send e-mails

B．they are often not answered

C．they are mostly not about business

D．they may lead to the changing of work schedule

43．How do some companies try to solve the problem of information overload?

A．They start to give staff a pay rise.

B．They plan to employ more people.

C．They provide employees with more advanced equipment.

D．They organize lectures on how to reduce stress.

44．What is the major issue discussed in this text?

A．Poor management leads to inefficiency at work.

B．Junk mail is causing big trouble.

C．White-collar workers suffer from information overload.

D．Better computers are in need in workplaces.

B

The first time I saw Carlos I would never have believed he was going to change my life. I had my arms full of books and I was tearing into the classroom when I ran into something solid. It was Carlos.

“My God, you’re tall,” he said.

Of course, the class began to laugh. Angry, I walked to my seat without a word.

I glanced back to see if Reed Harrington was laughing with the rest. That would be the last straw. But Reed was studying chemistry and did not seem to be aware of anything else. I didn’t know why I considered Reed my friend. Maybe just because he was a good two inches taller than I. Anyway, every time I blew out my birthday candles and made a wish, it was for a date with Reed Harrington.

“Take that seat，” Mr. McCarthy told the cocky newcomer Carlos，pointing to the only empty one，in the back of the room.

Carlos laughed widely. “But I need a couple of dictionaries.” Again the class laughed, but now they were laughing with Carlos，not at him. He had been here only 10 minutes and already he had them on his side.

The bell rang for classes. As I stood up to go, I saw Carlos co ming toward me. “ I’ sorry I embarrassed you,” he said. I looked straight head over the top of his black hair. “That’s all right.”

“ I ought to know better.” He was still blocking my way.” What’s your name?” “Karen Forbes.” “ You probably heard me say I’m Carlos Herrera.” He held out his hand. Unwillingly, I shook hands with him. He looked up at me seriously with his brown eyes.” “ I don’t see why you’re so touchy.”

I brushed by him and said sharply, “You wouldn’t understand.”

He followed me a f ew steps. “I’m just the one who should, Karen,” he said. “ You and I have a lot in common.”

It was the school elections that made me think of Carlos again. Reed Harrington was voted president and Carlos vice-president. “How come?” I kept asking myself,” How come this shrimp who’s only been in town for a little over a month gets to be so popular?”

So that morning，I stopped Carlos and said，“It doesn’t seem to bother you —being short.” He looked up at me, “Of course I mind being short. But there isn’t anything I can do about it. When I realized I was going to have to spend my life in this undersized skin，I just decided to make the best of it and concentrate on being myself.” “You seem to get along great,” I admitted, “But what about me? Nobody wants to date a girl taller than he is.” “The trouble with you is that you’re afraid to be yourself. You’re smart. And you

According to researchers．money can buy happiness, but only if you spend it on someone else．Spending as little as $5 a day on someone else could significantly bring you happiness, the team at the University of British Columbia and Harvard Business School found．

Their experiments on more than 630 Americans showed they were measurably（适度地）happier when they spent money on others--even if they thought spending the money on themselves would make them happier．

"We wanted to test our theory that how people spend their money is at least as important as how much money they earn," said Elizabeth Dunn, a psychologist at the University of British Columbia．They asked their 600 volunteers first to rate their general happiness, report their annual income and detail their monthly spending including bills, gifts for themselves, gifts for others and donations to charity．

"Regardless of how much income each person made, those who spent money on others reported

greater happiness, while those who spent more on themselves did not," Dunn said in a statement．Dunn's team also surveyed 16 employees at a company in Boston before and after they received an annual profit-sharing bonus（奖金）of between $3,000 and $8,000．

"Employees who devoted more of their bonus to pro-social spending experienced greater happiness after receiving the bonus, and the manner in which they spent that bonus was a more important predictor of their happiness than the size of the bonus itself," they wrote in their report, published in the journal Science．

They gave their volunteers $5 or $20 and half got clear instructions on how to spend it．Those who spent the money on someone or something else reported feeling happier about it．

"These findings suggest that very minor alterations（改动）in spending allocations（分配）- as little as $5 - may be enough to produce real gains in happiness on a given day," Dunn said．

49．According to the passage,_____________．

A．the more money you spend on others, the happier you are

B．spending money on others can bring you happiness

C．Elizabeth Dunn is a psychologist from Harvest Business School

D．six hundred volunteers took part in the experiment

50．The 16 employees mentioned in the passage _________．

A．were given clear instructions on how to spend the bonus

B．had more happiness than the size of the bonus itself

C．experienced greater happiness after receiving their bonus

D．felt happier after they contributed much of the bonus of charities

51．Dunn’s statement suggested that ______________．

A．those who spent money on others felt happier no matter how much they earned

B．those who spent more money on themselves felt happier

C．people thought spending money could make themselves happier

D．the money spent was as important as the money earned

52．The best title of this passage is ___________．

A．Experiment on Money Spending B．Spending Money on Others Makes One Happier C．Devoting Your Money to Charities D．Bonus and Pro-social Spending

When I was a baby I would stand in my wooden crib(婴儿床) and watch the world go by through the window. Some neighbors watched me watching the world go by with by big, wondering eyes and found me very interesting. They used to call me “the beauty at the window”. The early neighbors I could remember were from the second house I lived in. Peter and Paul were twins. We went to play school together although they were a year older than me. I well remember the Alsatian they had which ran into me when I was invited to their fifth birthday party. Needless to say, I was well-known for my loud screams after the party. But they said the pet was scared of my screams and didn’t appear until the party was over. Peter and Paul were the first boys who encouraged me to climb the gate. I could never tell the difference between boy and girl behaviors—I just did what I thought was fun. Not only did I have a great time performing that first climb, I also got my skirts dirty, and was criticized by my mother. The Japanese neighbors I had living in this same house were my favorite, as they introduced me to sea-salt baked shrimps (烤虾) which were so crisp that you could eat the shrimp totally. They gave me some seaweed for my birthday. Thankfully, no other member in my family enjoyed the seaweed as I did. Perhaps what my mother used to joke to me was true, that I was picked up out of the dustbin that belonged to a Japanese home. Maybe sometimes it is difficult to find good neighbors in this society. But all it takes is a spark(火花) to get a fire going. I have decided to be that spark wherever I live and pass love on to my neighbors. 21.
