二、阅读理解（3道小题，共30分）
In a job interview, the first question is often a ″breaking the ice″ type of question. Donˊt be surprised if the interviewer asks you something like: “How are you
today?″ or ″What do you think of the weather lately?″ Answer the question without going into too much detail.
Talking about qualifications is the most important part of any job interview. Your qualifications include your education and any special training you may have received in
the past. Your qualifications also include your experience in any previous work. It is important to explain what experience you have in detail. Generally, employers want to
know exactly what you did and how well you accomplished your tasks. This is not the time to be modest.
Try to avoid some big mistakes in the job interview, such as leaving the mobile on and criticizing previous bosses. The worst thing is you yourself have no questions.
Having no questions shows you are either not interested or not prepared. Remember that interviewers are more impressed with the questions you ask than the selling points you
try to make.

James is a middle-aged New York builder. He’s lonely. Just like everyone else, James needs human contact from time to time, and he’s found a way: at cuddle (拥抱)
parties.
New York can be a terrible place: it has a high murder rate and some seriously disturbed people living in it. But James says he’s comfortable at a New York apartment
with twenty strange people. The floor of the “cuddle zone” is soon covered with complete strangers snuggling (依偎) and cuddling, but that’s as far as it goes.
Cuddle parties are the latest trend for lonely, isolated city folks who want to meet people and become safely intimate. The safety comes from rules before you come, bring
clean clothes, ask permission before you cuddle, and keep your clothes on. “We have ‘cuddle lifeguards’ to make sure everyone sticks to the rules, ” says Mihalko. The
lifeguards make sure nobody gets out of line, and everyone goes home feeling better than when they arrived.
Once the cuddle party is in full swing, people are soon crawling on top of one another, stretching out like dogs ready for a nap. Mihalko admits that the whole idea
“might seem a little odd” at first. But research has shown that being touched by other people helps reduce stress and can help sick people heal faster.

1. According to the passage, which of the following about James is true?
A) He is old
B) He is rich and happy.
C) He constructs buildings.
D) He has established cuddle parties.
2. What is the relationship among people at the cuddle parties?
A) They are friends.
B) They are relatives.
C) They are lovers.
D) They do not know each other.
3. What do people do at the cuddle zone?
A) They talk and cuddle.
B) They snuggle and hug.
C) They cuddle and take off their clothes.
D) They cuddle and kiss.
4. What should “cuddle lifeguards” make sure?
A) Everyone being cuddled should be glad to do so.
B) People should not make friends in the parties.
C) Strangers should not cuddle each other.
D) People can get out of line.
5. From the passage, we can infer that ______＿.
A) people in New York feel especially lonely
B) New York is a terrible city to li

ve in
C) some Americans consider cuddling people they do not know a strange action at first.
D) being touched by strangers does no good to human health

A team of archaeologists (考古学家) has gone to New Mexico to look for proof of one of the greatest stories of the 20th century: the UFO crash at Roswell.
William Foleman, an archaeologist at the University of New Mexico, agreed to excavate (发掘) the site where the UFO supposedly crashed in 1947.
What exactly happened on the site is unclear. In 1947, a young man discovered some debris (碎片) on the field. After investigating the crash, the US Army announced they
had recovered a “fly disc”.
Several hours later, an Air Force general announced that the crash was caused by a weather balloon again. The field was closed off for several days while the military
cleaned up the site.
Believers claim that the military found a crashed UFO, along with several dead bodies at the site. This story has inspired countless books, movies and TV shows, but no
one has been able to find any evidence to support it.
In 1997, the Air Force said the weather balloon story was made up and that the military was actually conducting a crash-test program with balloons.
But Foleman isn’t so sure. While he says he’s “Still uncertain” about UFOs, he knows that “something happened in July 1947”.

1. Some people believe a UFO ______ at Roswell.
A) Landed
B) flew
C) crashed
D) disappeared
2. An archaeologist went to the site to look for ______.
A) Answers
B) evidence
C) aliens
D) fossils
3. In 1947 some debris (残骸) was found ______.
A) in a field
B) in a park
C) in a house
D) on a military base
4. The Air Force said the debris had come from a(an) ______.
A) plane
B) car
C) explosion
D) weather balloon
5. In 1997, the Air Force said their original story was ______.
A) False
B) true
C) unclear
D) exaggerated (夸张的)
