These passions, like great winds, have blown me back and forth, acco
2、mpanying me through my life, making me suffering with anxiety and despair. I have sought love, first, because it brings such uncontrolled feelings that I would often have sacrificed all the rest of life for a few hours of this joy. I have sought it, next, because it relieves my loneliness that I wou
3、ld follow it all the way. I have sought it, finally, because in the union of love I have seen the vision of the heaven that poets have imagined. This is what - at last - I have found. With equal passion I have sought knowledge. I have wished to understand the hearts of men. I have wished to know why
4、 the stars shine. And I have tried to understand the world around me. A little of this, but not much, I have achieved. Love and knowledge, so far as they were possible, led upward toward the heavens. But always pity brought me back to earth. Cries of pain re - echo in my heart. Children in famine, v
5、ictims tortured by oppressors, poverty, and pain make a mockery of what human life should be. I long to wipe out the evil, but I cannot, and I too suffer. This has been my life.

Hearing losses in particular occupations such as boiler-making and constructi
10、on work are well known. In fact, however, we all find hearing more difficult as we age. Young ears can distinguish a wide range of sounds from low to very high frequencies, while older ears lose the ability to distinguish high-pitched sounds. A comparison of some industrialized versus non-industrial
11、ized people suggests that this hearing loss may not be the must-be result of old age. Furthermore, a closer examination of other data reveals economic effects. For instance, airports are currently operating at less capacity because of noise regulations which restrict their hours of operation. Job pe
12、rformance can be seriously affected by loud noise, especially if accuracy and mental effort are involved. The use of outdoor areas for conversation is not possible for an estimated 5 to 10 million people who live or work in urban areas. When interference with television or speech or sleep is include
13、d, as many as 22 to 44 million people can be said to have lost part of the use of their homes and grounds because of noise. Thus noise pollution is a serious environmental concern. Much more effort should be made to warn people of the grave effects which may stem from an excessively noisy environmen

18、tographic laboratories. However, qualified workers are hard to find, because not many people seem to be attracted to this kind of work. Some people like to take pictures during their holidays, but they seldom produce their pictures all by themselves-that is the work of a photographic technician. Alt
19、hough it may not be easy to spend a full working day in the darkroom, it can be very satisfying to produce carefully processed photographs. Especially, if one can produce a very good photograph of high quality, his sense of achievement is gained. Besides achieving job satisfaction, the photo technic
20、ian can move on into production if he or she desires. For instance, the technician may choose to learn related skills such as photo restoration or photo retouching. Of course, these will make photo production more like an art, and it is not easy to become skilled in these kinds of work. Although it
21、is a good idea to seek classroom theory and technical knowledge, the individual interested in becoming a darkroom technician will learn the most by actually working in a photographic laboratory. The use of photograph in research and development is increasing. Therefore, the need for more technicians
22、 will undoubtedly increase.（分数：5.00）(1).Which of the following is not the work in the photographic industry?（分数：1.00）A.Photo retouching.B.Photo restoration.C.Darkroom work.D.The sale of the film rolls.(2).In processing, if you produce a very good photograph of high quality, you will feel _.（分数：1.00）

24、w much about photographic industryD.use of photograph in research and development is decreasing(4).Which of the following statements will best describe the writer“s ideas?（分数：1.00）A.Practice makes perfect.B.No pains, no gains.C.Rome is not built in a day.D.Theory goes before practice.(5).We can lear
25、n from the passage that _.（分数：1.00）A.the problem of technician shortage will be solved soonB.teachers must pay more attention to the training of the skillsC.the photographic industry is developing rapidlyD.students should learn more about photo productionFirst aid (急救) is the care given to the injur
26、ed or sick as soon as possible after an accident or illness. It is this immediate care and attention before the arrival of the ambulance (救护车) that sometimes means the difference between life and death, or a full or partial recovery. First aid has limitations, as not everybody is a doctor or expert,
27、 but it is a key element of the total medical system. The principle to be adopted in first aid is immediate action. By-standers (旁观者) or relatives not knowing what to do, or being too fearful to try, have unwisely contributed to unnecessary deaths and worth injuries. It is important that any action
28、taken by the first aid provider is started as quickly as possible. Quick action is necessary to save life and parts of the body. One who is not breathing effectively, or is bleeding (流血) heavily, requires immediate help. If quick effective first, aid is provided, then they have a much better chance
29、of a good recovery. But it should be remembered that any action taken is to be most careful, and fright (恐 慌) by the first aid provider and by standers will not be good to the whole thing. Try to remain calm and think your action through. A calm and controlled first aider will give everyone confiden
30、ce that the event is being handled efficiently and effectively.（分数：5.00）(1).The writer seems to suggest that if you don“t know much about first aid, you should _.（分数：1.00）A.call for help from professionalsB.still try to helpC.stand by and not try to helpD.learn it from a doctor(2).According to the p
31、assage, some injured or sick people died as a result of _.（分数：1.00）A.other people“s hesitation to offer first aidB.unprofessional first aidC.unnecessary first aidD.unwise suggestions by by-standers(3).Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?（分数：1.00）A.One should not apply first aid t
32、o the injured without knowing the cause of the accident.B.It is easy to carry out first aid if one has the necessary facilities.C.First aid is an important part of the whole treatment.D.First aid may not be effective before a doctor or expert comes.(4).The most important thing in providing first aid
33、 is to _.（分数：1.00）A.call for an ambulanceB.prevent bleedingC.know what to doD.act quickly(5).While offering first aid, the helper should _.（分数：1.00）A.be self-controlledB.have others to assist himC.have confidence in the sick personD.get rid of the by-standers3Speaking in public is most people“s leas
34、t favorite thing. The reason is that we“re all afraid of making fools of ourselves. The more important the speech is, the more frightened we become. But stop biting your fingernails. Public speaking is easy and I can tell you that public speaking is not a “gift“ like musical talent or being able to
35、draw. Anybody who can talk can speak in public. Here are some of the lessons I have learned. Keep it simple and short. Your audience is going to come away with one or two of your main ideas. One or two. Not ten or twenty. If you can“t express in a sentence or two what you intend to get across, then
36、your speech is not focused well enough. And if you don“t have a clear idea of what you want to say, there is no way your audience will. Get organized. No matter how long or short your speech is, you“ve got to get your ducks in a row how you“re going to open, what major points you want to make and ho
37、w you“re going to close. Be real You“re talking because you have experienced something the audience has not. Share it. Make the audience feel as you didhot or cold, frightened or sad, annoyed or puzzled. The first-person singular is a powerful tool. Take charge. The first few moments of your speech
38、establish the relationship between you and your audience. Don“t begin until you have everybody“s attention. When they“ve quietened, establish eye contact. Public speaking is not more difficult than using chopsticks or trying a bow tie. The mysterious becomes simple once you know how to do it. The ne
39、xt time it“s your turn to make a speech at a business meeting, club dinner or a party, see if my suggestion can work for you. The reason why speaking is most people“s 1 is that we are all afraid of making fools of ourselves. In the author“s opinion, actually it is 2 and anybody who can talk can spea
