Passage Two

There are basic differences between the large and small enterprises.

In the small enterprise you operate primarily through personal contacts. In the large enterprise you have established ―policies,‖ ―channels‖ of organization, and fairly rigid(严格的)procedure. In the small enterprise you have moreover, immediate effectiveness in a very small area. You can see the effect of you work and of your decisions right away, once you are a little bit above the ground floor .In the large enterprise, even the man at the top is only a cog in a big machine. To be sure, his actions affect a much greater organization, but his effectiveness is remote and indirect. In a small and even in a middle-size business, you are normally exposed to all kinds of experiences and expected to do a great many things without too much help or guidance. In the large organization you are normally taught one thing thoroughly. In the small one the danger is of becoming a jack-of –all-trades and master of none .In the large on it is of becoming the man who knows more and more about less and less.

Passage Three

My grandparents believed you were either honest or you weren’t. There was no in-between. They understood that integrity（正直；诚实）means having a personal standard of morality and that is not relative to the situation at hand. Integrity is an inner standard for judging your behavior. Unfortunately , integrity is in short supply today—and getting scarcer.

A good test for this value is to look at the three key principles: Stand firmly for your belief in the face of personal pressure. Always give others credit that is rightfully theirs.

David Ogilvy, founder of the advertising firm Ogilvy & Mather ,made this point clear to his newly appointed office heads by sending each a set of dolls with five progressively smaller figures inside.

His message was contained in the smallest doll: ―If each of us hires people who are smaller than we are ,we shall become a company of dwarfs. But if each of us hires people who are bigger than we are ,we will become a company of giants.

Be honest and open about who you really are. People who lack real core values rely on external factors—their looks social positions-in order to feel good about themselves. Inevitably they will do everything they can to preserve this mask. but they will do very little to develop their inner value and personal growth.

Integrity means you do what do because it’s right and not just fashionable.(239)

Questions 61—65 are based on the passage you have just read.

61 The author’.

A between honest and dishonest

B neither honest nor dishonest

C both honest and dishonest

D either honest or dishonest

62 The author’ A a personal and external standard

B a general and internal standard

C a personal and inner standard

D a general and external standard

A more and more B fewer and fewer

C most D fewest

64 According to the last two paragraphs people who have real core values rely on A their looks

B their mask

C their inner value and personal growth

D their company of giants and dwarfs

65 A profitable B fashionable C firm D right

Passage Four

People used to dream of flying like birds. Now this dream has been true for a long time . They have built airplanes of different sizes and different types to meet various needs. And there are lots of ways for people to fly,t oo.

Huge jets like Boeing 747 can carry hundreds of people .These giant planes often fly thousands of miles across the ocean. Crop dusters fly low and spray the crops with chemicals to keep bugs away. Water bombers help fight forest fires by dumping tons of water on the burning trees. Helicopters take off and land straight up and down. They can also stay in the air without moving. Because of these ,people have used them to do rescues work. Military jets fly very fast. Their noses look like needles and such a shape can make it easier for them to speed through the air.
