7.I reached Cairo and took a taxi to Tahrir Square.The taxi dropped me off across the street from Hardee's,a fast-food restaurant.In the cold January air,two street children came to me with cries for food.
As a world traveler,I was used to beggars.But seldom had I been so moved by the sincerity of the plea (懇求).I asked them to wait while I went inside to buy them food.Since I was traveling on a tight budget and was even skipping meals on occasion,part of me identified with the children's hunger.But mostly,the children reminded me how rich I really was.
At the counter I ordered two hamburgers for the boys.Then,as the hamburgers were being cooked,I overcame my remaining stinginess(小氣)and bought them one of Hardee's delicious,big chocolate chip cookies.
As they took the hamburgers,they showed me with 30 seconds of nonstop blessings,praying that Allah would bless me always.After they finished,I reached into the bag and pulled out the cookie,extending it for them to take.Both boys fell silent,and tears welled up in their eyes as they insisted this was too much.They refused the cookie six times.On my seventh attempt,after a long silent pause.they held out their hands and took the cookie.
The events that night are now in the past,but there are moments when I'm transported back to that empty square and to the honest faces of two boys.Five years later,I still ask God's blessings for those two Egyptian boys.While they had nothing material to give,they gave me something greater.a(chǎn)n awareness of my spiritual poverty and a desire for a softer heart.
56.Which of the following serves as the best title for the story?B
A.An Unforgettable Trip.              B.Beggars Who Gave.

18.Several years ago,I had to replace a receptionist for my unit.Before I advertised for the position,I was approached by another manager,and asked if I would consider a transfer from his staffinstead of opening a new competition.My natural question was to ask who he wanted me to consider and why.
It appeared from his description of this employee,Maria,that she was having a lot of problems performing her duties,and had difficulties with her boss,and did not appear to respond to any attempts he,the manager,had made to settle the issues.Now,after listening to his explanation,I really had severe doubts.What crossed my mind,after this discussion,was that he wanted me to take a problem off his hands.
I told him I would think about it and would let him know the next day.As promised,after   thinking more about this potential performance issue,I decided that I would agree to speak with Maria privately before I made any decision.
And,what I found out during this interview,left me deep in thought.As it tumed out,the  performance issue appeared to result from working for a boss who never extended a good morning.greeting,never gave a word of encouragement,and was constantly changing the work load and routines.The end result was a totally ruined employee who was unconfident,hated to see a new work day start.
I decided to accept her transfer to my unit.What started out as a shy,withdrawn and frightened employee turned out to be one of the most productive and loyal employee that I had eyer worked with.Maria couldn't do enough and was constantly asking for more and for more responsibility.I was more than happy to give her what she needed-praise for work well done,respect as a person,and encouragement for doing well in anything she dealt with.
Sometimes,we are guilty of holding others back from accomplishing or doing,or developing as they should or could.It may be a wise idea that we all look in the mirror,from time to time,to see what we are really like.

41.What can we leam about the writer from the first paragraph?A
A.He is a manager in the company.
B.He doesn't like his receptionist.
C.He likes to compete with others.
D.He wants to find another position.
42.After hearing his colleague's description of Maria,the writer thought that MariaB.
A.a(chǎn)ttempted to settle the issues
B.was a problem to her boss
C.shouldn't stay in the company
D.could get on well with others
43.Why did Maria fail to perform well in her previous job?C
A.Her previous job was not suitable for her.
B.She had difficulty responding to her manager.
C.Her boss didn't inspire her working enthusiasm.
D.Her boss showed no trust in her ability.
44.The writer accepted Maria's transfer to unit probably because he thought thatC
A.she was a ruined employee
B.she would need his protection
C.she would turn out to be a good employee
D.she was a shy and frightened employee
45.The writer probably believes that a good boss shouldB.
A.praise and award his employees a lot
