(A)
Your computer has been playing music for years, one CD at a time. Now hundreds of songs can be stored in your PC if they' re in the MP3 format (格式).
What is it?
MP3 compressed(压缩) music into small computer files. You may download MP3 music several ways: Music can be downloaded from websites that have turned wide music libraries into MP3. Once MP3 music is on your PC’s hard drive, you can play it through your computer's speakers, "burn" it onto blank CDs or swap(交换) MP3 files with friends using e -mail.
How much?
Software needed to play and turn MP3 music is often free. Compact portable MP3 players start at around $ 40 and can hold hundreds of songs. A blank CD on which you can record music costs about a dollar.
Advantages
MP3 turns your home PC into a jukebox(自动唱机) . Small MP3 players are the size of a deck of cards(一副牌), making it easy to take hundreds of songs with you.
Disadvantages
You may find that some websites only allow you to listen but you can't download music. Others let you download music but can't be copied to MP3 players. And a growing number of new CDs make it impossible to copy songs to a computer.
56. How can you get MP3 music?
A. By turning your home PC into a jukebox B. By taking your own music or songs with you.
C. By copying songs to a PC through the speakers.
D. By downloading from websites, which have turned music libraries into MP3.

Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said, “Happiness depends upon ourselves.” In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.
The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future —for example, getting into college or getting a good job —that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life’s simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.
Another secret to living a happy life is to be active, and have hobbies where you forget your problems and time. Many people experience this dancing, or playing a sport, such as swimming. You can forget about your problems, and only think about the activity. Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to buy food for an elderly person, or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.
46. The best title of the passage is ________.
A. Money Makes You Happy B. The Secrets of Happiness
C. Ideas for Helping Other People to Be Happy D. Good Friends Make You Happy
47.The second paragraph tells us that ________.
A. the more friends you have, the happier you will be
B. we shouldn’t think about our future
C. happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life.
D. some people fail to live a happy life
48.The passage gives us ________ pieces of advice on happiness.
A. one B. two C. three D. four
49. The writer thinks that ________.
A. everyone knows how to live a happier life B. it’s wrong to spend time on work
C. hobbies take up too much time D. doing good things for someone can make you happier
50.Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage?
A. Reading a good book. B. Traveling to a foreign country.
C. Playing a sport. D. Spending time with close friends.
(C)
My teachers suggested that I see a speech specialist (专家) in school.
I never really gave much thought to my speech. If other people understood what I was saying, then that was good enough. I didn’t mind repeating myself many times.
Before testing me, the speech specialist asked me what I thought of having good speech. I told her I thought it was not important.
“Well, when you are in an interview for a job, and they don’t know what you are saying, what are they going to say to you? Nice meeting you, bye,” she said.
Maybe good speech was important. I took part in 20-minute classes each week with the specialist.
After she tested me, she told me that I spoke too fast, and didn’t give enough eye contact (眼神交流). I learned that when I made eye contact with someone, it meant that I was talking to that person, and I could also see what he or she thought about what I was saying.
When my first speech class started, I found that I had been speaking too fast to be understood. Every time I spoke too fast, the specialist stopped me and told me to start again. At first, I got stopped after almost every other sentence. After a while, I felt my speech slow down. I wasn’t sure if people could understand me better, but my friends stopped asking me to repeat myself.
Speech is an important skill to have. If you do have good speech, that’s a good thing, but if you don’t have it, it is never too late to improve.
66. The article is probably taken from .
A. a newspaper B. an advertisement C. a detective story D. a science book
67. What did the writer think of having good speech before the classes?
A. It was very useful. B. It was nothing important.
C. It was impossible. D. It was good for interviewing.
68. What were the writer’s problems when he was speaking?
a. He spoke too quickly. b. He never stopped once he started talking.
c. He seldom kept eye contact with people. d. He didn’t give others time to ask questions.
A. a, b B. b, c C. a, c D. b, d
69. From the sentence “but my friends stopped asking me to repeat myself,” we know that _____.
A. the writer’s friends couldn’t understand him B. the writer still couldn’t make eye contact
C. the writer improved a lot D. the writer didn’t slow down
70. Through the passage, the writer wants to tell us that _____.
A. seeing a speech specialist is necessary B. speech is an important skill to have
C. good speech can help you make friends D. good speech gets good affect

When I was a child I never said, "When I grow up, I want to be a CEO," but here I am. When I look back on my career, I realize the road to becoming a CEO isn't a straight, clear path. In fact, no two paths are the same. But whether you want to be a boss one day or not, there's a lot to learn from how leaders rise to the top of successful companies.
As this series of stories shows, the paths to becoming a CEO may be different, but the people in that position(位置) share the qualities of commitment（义务）, work ethic（道德） and a strong desir
