1.I had moved to Japan for a long-term client consulting engagement.After a few days in a Tokyo hotel,I moved to an apartment.After being moved in by my colleagues,it was time to get dinner.I found a pizza deliver flyer in my mailbox and decided to simply order a pizza as I might have the previous week in Manhattan.The phone call to Cali Pizza was easier than anticipated and while waiting for the pizza I set about unpacking.
Unfortunately,after 45 minutes no pizza.I figured that my "easy" call really wasn't and that I would need to make alternate plans for dinner.While thinking about what to do next,my phone rang.It was Cali Pizza calling to say that they could not find my apartment based on the address that I had given them.Once it was determined that I had provided an incorrect address,the clerk on the phone asked me to describe what I could see from my window.After some back and forth they seemed satisfied that they knew where I was.
A few minutes later the pizza arrived.This is when my "customer delight" experience took over.First,the delivery person apologized repeatedly for being late,then he showed me the small blue metal plate on my building with the correct address,and finally he refused to accept payment for the pizza because he was late.Net result:one delighted customer(me),and frequent orders from Cali Pizza during my two-year stay in Japan.

3.Are you sometimes a little tired and sleepy in the early afternoon?Many people feel this way after lunch.They may think that eating lunch is the cause of the sleepiness.Or,in summer,they may think it is the heat.However,the real reason lies inside their bodies.At that time-about eight hours after you wake up-your body temperature goes down.This is what makes you slow down and feel sleepy.Scientists have tested sleep habits in experiments where there was no night or day.The people in these experiments almost always followed a similar sleeping pattern.They slept for one long period and then for one short period about eight hours later.
In many parts of the world,people take naps in the middle of the day.This is especially true in warmer climates,where the heat makes work difficult in the early afternoon.Researchers are now saying that naps are good for everyone in any climate.A daily nap gives one a more rested body and mind and therefore is good for health in general.In countries where naps are traditional,people often suffer less from problems such as heart disease.Many working people,unfortunately,have no time to take naps.Though doctors may advise taking naps,employers do not allow it!If you do have the chance,however,here are a few tips about making the most of your nap.Remember that the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up.A short sleep too late in the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy afterward.This can also happen if you sleep for too long.If you do not have enough time,try a short nap-even ten minutes of sleep can be helpful.
(1)Why do you sometimes feel sleepy in the early afternoon?
A.Because you eat too much for lunch.
B.Because it's hot in summer.
C.Because your body temperature goes down at that time.
D.Because you didn't have a good sleep last night.
(2)What can we learn about "naps" according to the last paragraph?
A.All the people in warmer climates take naps in the middle of the day.
B.Doctors need to take naps while employers don't.
C.If you take naps every day,you'll never suffer from heart disease.
D.Taking naps regularly is good to people's health.
(3)If you get up at 6:30 am,what is the best time for you to take a nap?
A.About 12:30 pm.
B.About 1:30 pm.
C.About 2:30 pm.
D.About 3:30 pm.
(4)What would be the best title for the text?
A.All for a Nap
B.Just for a Rest
C.A Special Sleep Pattern
D.Taking Naps in Warmer Climate組卷:5引用:1難度:0.5 -
4.The hike to the lost Incan city of Choquequirao is one of the most difficult in Peru.From the town of Cachora,which is 161km west of Cusco,it's an 18km walk to Capuliyoc Mountain,then down to Playa Rosalina,where travellers camp for the night.Waking early,travellers then have to cross the Apurímac River and walk uphill to camp close to the ruins.Then,the next morning,it's another 2km walk up to the ruins,3,100 m above sea level.To get back?Well,it's the same way you came.
"I've had people in their 60s and 70s do it," said Juan Barrios,a guide from the Adventure Life company. "But some people come out thinking that because it's only 28km from the drop off they can do it in a day.Six or seven days for the hike is best."
It makes sense,then,that Choquequirao draws only about 30 people a day during the high season(June through August).Compare that to the 2,500 people who arrive each day at the famous Incan city of Machu Picchu.
But for those who make the journey,the rewards(回報(bào))are great:beautiful mountain views at every turn,and the chance to explore the wonderful ruins nearly alone.
Believed to be created around the same time as Machu Picchu,in 1445,Choquequirao is actually larger than better-known Machu Picchu.But very little has been written about Peru's other lost city and researchers are still uncovering new parts of the ruins,leaving life on the mountain relatively untouched.
But officials say that the building of the first cable car(纜車)to Choquequirao will shorten the several-day walk to a 15-minute cable car ride.As a result,the number of travellers that now make the journey each week could turn into 3,000 visitors per day.
Choquequirao is beautiful now because of how untouched it is.Even though the lost city was discovered by Spanish explorer Juan Arias Díaz in 1710,the ruins still make you feel as though you're the first to find them.Will it be the same when more travellers flood in (大量涌入)?
(1)What does the first paragraph centre on?
A.How tall Choquequirao is.
B.How to get to Choquequirao easily.
C.What great views Choquequirao has.
D.How hard the trip to Choquequirao is.
(2)In what way is Choquequirao different from Machu Picchu?
A.Choquequirao is older.
B.Choquequirao is quieter.
C.Choquequirao is smaller.
D.Choquequirao is better known.
(3)How are the ruins of Choquequirao?
A.They're still being dug out.
B.They're in a generally poor condition.
C.They're being renewed at the moment.
D.They've been researched internationally.
(4)What does the author think of Choquequirao in the future?
A.It will be more attractive.
B.It will develop at a slow speed.
C.It won't necessarily take a turn for the better.
D.It won't be more popular than Machu Picchu.組卷:105引用:4難度:0.5

8.閱讀下面短文,根據(jù)所給情節(jié)進(jìn)行續(xù)寫(xiě),使之構(gòu)成一個(gè)完整的故事。
I live in a small but lovely neighborhood.Our house is neither large nor luxurious,but it has a fairly big garden.My father loves his garden.He planted some seeds in it and took good care of the plants,watering them,applying fertilizer,weeding and getting rid of bugs.He was never tired of doing all that stuff.But at that time,I didn't understand why working in the dirt excited him so much.
Unfortunately,in the summer vacation before senior high school,my father was seriously injured in an accident.He had to stay in bed for a while.My mother had several business trips,so she couldn't take care of the garden.I didn't want my father to worry.I said that I would take care of his garden until he recovered.I assumed that the little plants would continue to grow as long as they had water,and luckily it rained fairly often,so I didn't think much about the garden.
One Saturday morning,my father said to me, "Christine,the vegetables should be about ready to be picked.Let's have a salad today!" I went out to the garden and was upset to see that many of the lettuce (生菜) leaves and carrots had been half eaten by bugs.There were hundreds of bugs all over them!
I panicked for a moment but then I quietly went to the nearest supermarket to buy some vegetables.When I was making the salad,my mother came home and saw the bag from the supermarket in the kitchen.I was embarrassed and admitted, "Dad would like a salad,but the garden is a disaster.I don't want to disappoint him,so I went to the store and bought some vegetables." My mother smiled,saying, "Honey,you know what is the right thing to do."
My father seemed very pleased when I took the salad to him.______
Feeling guilty,I decided to do the right thing.______組卷:54引用:7難度:0.5
