n a devastating car accident.

The boy began lessons with an old Japanese judo master. The boy did well, so he couldn’t understand why, after 3 months of trains, the master had taught him only one move.“Master,” the boy finally said, “Shouldn’t I be learning more moves？” “This is the only move you know, but this is the only move you’ll need to know,” the master replied. Not quite understanding, but believing in his teacher, the boy kept training. Several months later, the master took the boy to his first tournament. Surprising himself, the boy easily won his first two matches. The third match proved to be more difficult, but after some time, his opponent became impatient and charged; the boy skillfully used his one move to win the match. Still amazed by his success, the boy was now in the finals. This time, his opponent was bigger, strong, and more experienced. For a while, the boy appeared to be outmatched. Concerned about the boy, the referee called a time-out. He was about to stop the match when the master came forward.

“No,” the master insisted, “Let him continue.”

Soon after the match resumed, his opponent made a fatal mistake. He dropped his guard. Instantly, the boy used his move to pin him. The boy won the match. He was the champion.

On the way home, the boy and his master reviewed every move in each and every match. Then the boy summoned the courage to ask what was really on his mind.

“Master, how did I win the tournament with only one move？”

“You won for two reasons,” the master answered. “First, you’ve almost mastered one of the most difficult throws in judo. And second, the only known defense for that move is for your opponent to grab your left arm.

16. Judging from the context, what happens when a referee calls a “time-out”(Line2, Para 7)？

A. The time for the game has run out

B. The game stops for a short time

C. Either side can claim victory

D. The game ends in a tie

17. Why did the master insist on continuing the match？

A. Because the time-out would give the opponent an advantage

B. Because the boy was confident of winning

C. Because he had confidence in the boy’s skill

D. Because all he cared about is winning the final

18. What caused the defeat of the boy’s opponent in the final？

A. Over-confidence

B. Impatience

C. Inexperience

D. The time-out

19. Why did the master only teach the boy one move？

A. The boy could not do other moves with only one arm

B. It was the only move the master knew well

C. It was the move his opponents were not good at

D. His opponent would be helpless when he made this move

20. What does the story show？

A. One can turn his weakness into an advantage

B. It is very important to have a good teacher

C. Even a disabled person can win in a judo match

D. To master judo one only needs to learn one difficult move

A Pay Rise or Not？

"Unless I get a rise, I'll have a talk with the boss, Henry Manley," George Strong said to himself. George liked his job and he liked the town he lived in, but his wife kept telling him that his pay was not enough to meet the needs of the family. That was why he was thinking of taking a job in Birmingham, a nearby city about 50 miles away. He had been offered a job in a factory there, and the pay was far better.

George lived in Wyeford, a medium-sized town. He really liked the place and didn't like the idea of moving somewhere else, but if he took the job in Birmingham, he would

have to move his family there.

Henry Manley was the manager of a small company manufacturing electric motors.The company was in deep trouble because, among other reasons, the Japanese were selling such things at very low prices. As a result, Manley had to cut his own prices and profits as well. Otherwise he would not get any orders at all. Even then, orders were still not coming in fast enough, so that there was no money for raises （加工资） for his workers.Somehow, he had to struggle along and keep his best workers as well. He sighed. Just then the phone rang.

His secretary, told him that George Strong wanted to see him as soon as possible.Manley sighed again. He could guess what it was about. George Strong was a very young engineer. The company had no future unless it could attract and keep men like him. Manley rubbed his forehead （前额）; his problems seemed endless.

第 16 题 Henry Manley was already deeply in debt.

A．Right

B．Wrong

C．Not mentioned

udget，his clients trusted him completely and he made them feel secure. In exchange they paid him very well. We had a nice life then. At that time，my yoga studio(瑜伽馆)was just starting to make a profit，and I had recently decorated it. At last，I was in control of my working life and poured my heart and soul into making it succeed.

When we first met，I fell hard for Christopher right away. although I wouldn't call it love. I'd never been with a man who was prettier than I was，but after a while I got used to this. and it didn't bother me so much. I was recovering from a broken heart and needed something to help me move on. If it wasn't love，it was good enough，and when he asked me to marry him I jumped at the chance. knowing that it might be my last.

Things started out so well. I was working steadily and Christopher was patiently climbing up the ladder in his department. Then，without any warning，one gray winter afternoon in year five，he just upped and left his desk at the bank，handed in his resignation，and came home and told me he wanted to start an interior design business.

He has always loved mixing and matching，and has a real eye for color，texture，and shape，but the idea of turning a hobby into a business wasn't something we had ever discussed. I thought the stress of his job was becoming too much and perhaps he would take a few months off over the spring and summer to relax and get the idea out of his system. I didn't believe he could be serious. But once he had a few clients，he began to draw up plans，ordering catalogues and turning our empty workshop into a kind of makeshift studio with all of his sketches pinned to the wall. After spending a lot of time and money on all of this preparation，and really doing quite a nice job of it,he called each client in turn and apologized，saying he wouldn't be able to design their living spaces after all.

As a financial planner，Christopher______.

A．paid his clients very well

B．was trusted by his clients

C．was making his yoga studio profitable

D．could make his family's budget balanced

第（36）题应填__________ 查看材料

a student who finished his work before all the others and needed something more difficult for him to do. "Could you help me in the library？"she asked. I said, "Send him along."

Soon, a golden-haired boy appeared. "Do you have a job for me？" he asked. I told him about a system for sorting books. He picked up the idea immediately. Then I showed him some cards for some unreturned books that I thought had been returned but not recorded. Maybe some books were put on wrong places. He said, "Is it a kind of a detective(侦探) job？" I answered yes, and then began his work.

He had found three books with wrong cards by the time his teacher opened the door and said, "Time for rest!" he argued for finishing the finding job, but the teacher won.

The next morning, he arrived early, "I want to finish these books," he said. At the end of the day, when he asked to work with me more often, it was easy for me to say yes.
