【听力原文】
We are hearing a lot these days about downshifting, so what is it? Theterm downshifting first appeared in 1994.It was coined by the Trans-researchInstitute to describe a new philosophy by which higher achievers at work chosea lower salary in exchange for a better quality of life. According to a recentstudy, 4 out of 10 people under 35 years old are planning to downshift fromstressful jobs to a slower pace of life. It is not just the dream of the young;it is also popular with 35 to 54-year old, 12% of whom are making plans todownshift, 16% hoping to down so in next 2 years.
The study found that, 7% of workers had already downshifted. Doctor LucyGrand, a psychologist looking at the phenomenon, believes that the downshiftingis a dream that more and more people want to turn into a reality. People arenot satisfied with their lives, and they want to make changes. However DoctorGrand adds, that some people will hesitate, because they don’t actually believethey can make it happen, while others will rush into downshifting to discoverthat their dream ends up with the financial crisis. So it’s something thatrequires a lot of thought and planning to get right.
Questions：
14. According to the passage,what is downshifting?
15. According to a recentstudy, what is the percentage of workers who have already downshifted?
16. In Lucy Grand’s opinion,why does downshifting require a lot of thought and planning?

Considering how much time people spend in offices, it is important thatwork be well designed. Well-designed office spaces help create a cooperation’simage. They motivate workers and they make an impression on people who visitand might be potential or, __41__, customer. They make businesses workbetter, and they are a part of the corporate culture we live in.
As we move away from anindustrial-based economy to a knowledge-based one, office designers have comeup with__42__ to the traditional work environments of the past. Thedesign industry has moved away from a fixed office setup and created moreflexible “strategic management environments.” These __43__ solutions aremeant to support better organizational performances.
As employee hierarchies (等级制度) have flattened or decreased, office designers’ response to this changehas been to move open-plain areas to more desirable locations within theoffice, and create fewer formal private offices. The need for increasedflexibility has also been __44__ by changes in work station design.Offices and work spaces often are not __45__ to a given person on apermanent basis because of changes to method of working, new designs allow forexpansion or movement of desks, storage, and equipment within the workstation.Another important design goal is communication, which designers have improvedby lowering the walls that __46__ workstations. Designers have alsocreated informal gathering places, and upgraded employees’ __47__ toheavily trafficked areas such as copy and coffee rooms. Corporate andinstitutional office designers often struggle to resolve a number of competingand often __48__ demands, including budgetary limits, employee hierarchies,and technological innovation(especially in relation to computerization). Thesedemands must also be balanced with the need to create interiors(内饰) that in some way enhance, establish, orpromote a company’s image and will enable employees to __49__ at theirbest.
All these __50__ of office design are related. The most successfuloffice designs are like a good marriage --the well-designed office and theemployees that occupy it are seemingly made for each other.
【答案及解析】
41.I. prospective
（potential“潜在的”和空格处是通过or并列的，故可知空格处是一个形容词，且意思和“潜在的”是相近的。结合备选答案及单词意思，只有prospective符合。prospective可能的；有希望的。故答案为I项。）
42.B. alternatives
（句意：随着我们从以工业为基础的经济体系转移到以知识为基础的经济体系，办公室设计者已经想出了一些替代传统工作环境的事物。空格处所选词词性应为名词，再根据语意分析，此处应填写表示“替换、可供选择的事物”，故选B项。）
43.H. innovative
（首先，该空位于名词前，由此确定空格处所选词词性应为形容词，再根据前文人们欲改变办公环境的想法，可知需要“有创造性的解决方案”，故选H项。）
44.D. confirmed
（通过“has been”和“by”一词可推测空格处应填动词的过去分词形式表示被动。根据语意“对日益增长的灵活性的需求被工作环境设计的改变证实了。”故选D项。）
45.C. assigned
（此处表示被动语态，应用动词的过去分词。根据语意“办公室及工作空间不是分配给一个人永久使用的”可知，此处表示“分配”。故选C项。）
46.J. separate
（此处为that引导的定语从句，walls为先行词。句意：另一个重要的设计目标就是交流，设计者们已经通过降低分割工作空间的墙来改善这种交流。空格处表示“分割，隔开”。故选J项。）
47.A. access
（句意：设计者也创造了一些非正式的聚会地方，同时也改善了员工进入如复印室和咖啡屋之类较拥挤的地方。根据employees’的这种所有格形式可知，空格处应该是名词。access to“进入”，固定搭配。故选A项。）
48.E. conflicting
（空格前的competing“竞争的”和空格处是由and连接的，故空格处单词在结构上和含意上应与competing相似。故答案选conflicting，表示“有冲突的”。故选E项。）
49.G. function
（句意：这种要求要注意均衡内饰的需要，从而在一定程度上，可以加强、建立或促进公司的形象，使得员工有最好的工作状态。根据搭配enable sb. to do sth.可知，空格填动词原形。故选G项。）
50.F. element
（根据空格前后的单词“these”和“of”可知，空格处应该是名词形式。句意：所有的这些办公室因素都是互相关联的。故选G项。）
III. ReadingComprehension
Section A
Directions: For each blank inthe following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fillin each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
If you studied pictures that ancient people left on rock walls and youtried to determine their meaning, you would not detect interest in romanceamong the artists. __51__, you would see plenty of animals with peoplerunning after them. Life for ancient people’s earned to center on hunting andgathering wild foods for meals.
In modern times, when food is available in grocery stores, finding loveis more __52__ in people’s lives. The __53__ is all around us. Itis easy to prepare a list of modern stories having to do with love. An endlessnumber of books and movies qualify as love stories in popular culture.
Researchers arestudying whether love, a highly valued emotional state, can be __54__.They ask, what is love? Toothpaste companies want us to think attraction is allabout clean teeth, but clean teeth go only so far. Scientists wonder how muchthe brain gets involved. You have probably heard that opposites attract butthat __55__ attract, too. One thing is certain: The truth about love isnot yet set in stone.
First Impression
To helpdetermine the __56__ of attraction, researchers paired 164 collegeclassmates and had them talk for 3, 6 or 10 minutes so they could get a senseof each other’s individuality. Then students were asked to __57__ whatkind of relationship they were likely to build with their partners. After nineweeks, they reported what happened.
As it turnedout, their __58__ judgments often held true. Students seemed to __59__at an early stage who would best fit into their lives.
The __60__ Knows
Scientists havealso turned to nonhumans to increase understanding of attraction. Many animalsgive off pheromones — natural chemicals that can be detected by and then canproduce a response in, other animals of the same species. Pheromones can signalthat an animal is either ready to fight or is feeling __61__ topartnerships. In contrast, humans do not seem to be as __62__ as otheranimals at detecting such chemicals. Smell, however, does seem to play a partin human attraction. Although we may not be aware of chemicals like pheromonesconsciously, we give and receive loads of information through smell in everyinteraction with other people.
Face Value
Being fond ofsomeone seems to have a number of factors, including seeing something we findattractive. Researchers had people judge faces for __63__.

Section B
Directions: Read the followingthree passages. Each passage isfollowed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them thereare four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best accordingto the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
Look to many of history’s cultural symbols, and there you’ll find anancestor of Frosty, the snowman in the movie Frozen. It appeared on some of thefirst postcards, starred in some of the earliest silent movies, and was thesubject of a couple of the earliest photos, dating all the way back to the1800s. I discovered even more about one of humanity’s earliest forms of lifeart during several years of research around the world.
For example, snowmen were a phenomenon in the Middle Ages, built withgreat skill and thought. At a time of limited means of expression, snow waslike free art supplies dropped from the sky. It was a popular activity forcouples to leisurely walk through town to view the temporary works of chilly art. Somewere created by famous artists, including a 19-year-old Michelangelo, who in1494 was appointed by the ruler of Florence, Italy, to build a snowman in hismansion’s courtyard.
The Miracle of1511 took place during six freezing works called the Winter of Death. The cityof Brussels was covered in snowmen—an impressive scene that told stories onevery street corner. Some were political in nature, criticizing the church andgovernment. Some were a reflection of people’s imagination. For the people ofBrussels, this was a defining moment of defining freedom. At least until springarrived, by which time they were dealing with damaging floods.
If you fear theheyday of the snowman has passed, don’t worry: I’ve learned that some explosivesnowman history is still being made today. Every year since 1818, the people ofZurich, Switzerland, celebrate the beginning of spring by blowing up a snowman.On the third Monday of April, the holiday Sechselauten is kicked off when acotton snowman called the Boogg is stuffed with explosive and paraded throughtown by bakers and other tradesmen who throw bread to the crowds. The paradeends with the Boogg being placed on a 40-foot pile of firewood. After the bellsof the Church of St. Peter have rung six times, representing the passing ofwinter, the pile is lit. When the snowman explodes, winter is consideredofficially over—the quicker it is burnt down, the longer summer is said to be.(392)

A. People thought of snow as holy art supplies.
B. People longed to see masterpieces of snow.

| Scary Bunny
The Curse of the Were-Rabbit(2005) is the first fulllength feature film made by directors Nick Park and Steve Box with their amazing plasticine (粘土) characters Wallace and Gromit. It won an Oscar in 2006, and if you watch it, you’ll understand why. It’s an absolutely brilliant cartoon comedy.
| Cheese-loving inventor Wallace and his brainy dog Gromit have started a company to protect the town’s vegetables from hungry rabbits. However, just before the annual Giant Vegetable Competition, an enormous rabbit begins terrorizing the town. It is attacking all the vegetables and destroying everything in its path. The competition organizer, Lady Tottington, hires Wallace and Gromit to catch the monster alive. But they will have to find the were-rabbit before gun-crazy hunter Victor Quartermaine who is desperate to kill it.
| The screenplay is witty and full of amusing visual jokes. As usual, the voice of Peter Sallis is absolutely perfect for the role of Wallace, and Gromit is so beautifully brought to life, he can express a huge range of emotions without saying a word. And both Helena Bonham-Carter, who plays the part of Lady Tottington, and Ralph Fiennes as Victor are really funny.
| To sum up, The Curse of the Were-Rabbit is an amazing film which is suitable for both children and adults. If you liked Wallace and Gromit’s previous adventures and you appreciate the British sense of humour, you’ll love this film. Don’t miss it!

(C)
One of the executives gathered at the Aspen Institute for a day-longleadership workshop using the works of Shakespeare was discussing the role ofBrutus in the death of Julius Caesar. “Brutus was not an honorable man,” hesaid. “He was a traitor（叛徒）. And he murdered someone in cold blood.” The agreement was that Brutushad acted with cruelty when other options were available to him. He made a baddecision, they said—at least as it was presented by Shakespeare—to take thelead in murdering Julius Caesar. And though one of the executives acknowledgedthat Brutus had the good of the republic in mind, Caesar was nevertheless hissuperior. “You have to endeavor,” the executives said, “our policy is to obeythe chain of command.”
During the lastfew years, business executives and book writers looking for a new way to advisecorporate America have been exploiting Shakespeare’s wisdom for profitableends. None more so than husband and wife team Kenneth and Carol Adelman,well-known advisers to the White House, who started up a training companycalled “Movers and Shakespeares”. They are amateur Shakespeare scholars andShakespeare lovers, and they have combined their passion and their high levelcontacts into a management training business. They conduct between 30 and 40workshops annually, focusing on half a dozen different plays, mostly forcorporations, but also for government agencies.
The workshopsall take the same form, focusing on a single play as a kind of case study, andusing individual scenes as specific lessons. In Julius Caesar , sly provocation（狡诈的挑唆） of Brutus to take up armsagainst the what was a basis for a discussion of methods of team building andgrass roots organism.
Although neitherof the Adelmans is academically trained in literature, the programmes, containplenty of Shakespeare tradition and background. Their workshop on Henry V, forexample, includes a helpful explanation of Henry’s winning strategy at theBattle of Agincourt. But they do come to the text with a few biases (偏向): their reading of Henry V minimizes his misuseof power. Instead, they emphasize the story of the youth who seizes opportunityand becomes a masterful leader. And at the workshop on Caesar, Mr. Adelmans hadlittle good to say about Brutus, saying “the noblest Roman of them all”couldn’t make his mind up about things.
Many of theparticipants pointed to very specific elements in the play that they feltrelated Caesar’s pride, which led to his murder, and Brutus’s mistakes inleading the after the murder, theysaid, raise vital questions for anyone serving as a business when and how doyou resist the boss? (481)

A. To highlight the importance ofcatching opportunities.
B. To encourage masterful leadersto plan strategies to win.
C. To illustrate the harm ofprejudices in management.
D. To warn executives againstpower misuse.
76. It can be inferred from thepassage that ____.

Section C
Directions: Read the passagecarefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewestpossible words.
Youth sport has the potential to accomplish three important objectives inchildren’s development. First, sport programs can provide youth withopportunities to be physically active, which can lead to improved physicalhealth. Second, youth sport programs have long been considered important toyouth’s psycho-social development, providing opportunities to learn importantlife skills such as cooperation, discipline, leadership, and self-control.Third, youth sport programs are critical for the learning of motor skills;these motor skills serve as a foundation for future national sport stars andrecreational adult sport participants. When coachers develop activities foryouth practices and when sport organizations design youth-sport programs, theymust consider the implication of deliberate play and deliberate practice.
Research from Telama (2006) states that regular participation indeliberate play or deliberate practice activities during childhood and youth(ages nine to eighteen) increases the likelihood of participation in sportsduring adulthood by six times for both males and females. C?té (2002) definesdeliberate play activities in sport as those designed to maximize enjoyment.These activities are regulated by flexible rules adapted from standardizedsport rules and are set up by the children or by an involved adult. Childrentypically change rules to find a point where their game is similar to theactual sport but still allows for play at their level. For example, childrenmay change soccer and basketball rules to suit their needs and environment(e.g. in the street. on a playing field or in someone’s backyard). Wheninvolved in deliberate play activities, children are less concerned with theoutcome of their outcome of their behavior (whether they win or lose) than withthe behavior (having fun).
On the other hand, Ericsson (1993) suggests that the most effectivelearning occurs through involvement in highly structured activities defined asdeliberate practice. Deliberate practice activities require effort, produce noimmediate rewards, and are motivated by the goal of improving performancerather than the goal of enjoyment. When individuals are involved in deliberateplay, they experiment with different combinations of behaviors, but notnecessarily in the most effective way to improve performance. In contrast, whenindividuals are involved in deliberate practice, they exhibit behavior focusedon improving performance by the most effective means available. For example,the backhand skills in tennis could be learned and improved over time byplaying matches or by creating fun practice situations. However, players couldmore effectively improve their backhand performance by practicing drills thatmight be considered less enjoyable. Although drills are used in most effectivemeans available practice might not be the most enjoyable, they might be themost relevant to improving performance. (439)
(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THANTEN WORDS)
78. Besides the learning of motor skills, what arethe other two important objectives of youth sport?
79. If children participate in deliberate play ordeliberate practice activities, they are more likely to________________.
80. In deliberate playactivities, what do children do to maximize enjoyment?
81. In contrast to deliberateplay, deliberate practice is aimed at____________.
【答案与解析】
78. Improved physical healthand psychosocial development.
（这是一篇说明文，讲述青年运动有可能在孩子的发展中完成三个重要目标。强身健体、心理发展和运动技能。根据第一句“Youth sport has the potential to accomplish three important objectives inchildren’s development.”以及之后出现的First，second，third可得出这三点目标。）
79. participate in sportsduring adulthood
（第二段第一句就提出了“regular participation in deliberate play or deliberate practiceactivities during childhood and youth (ages nine to eighteen) increases thelikelihood of participation in sports during adulthood…”，由此可得知答案。）
80. They change rules to suit their needs and theirenvironment
（文章第二段开始提到C?té (2002) defines deliberate play activities in sport as those designedto maximize enjoyment.，后举例说明“For example, children may change soccer and basketball rules to suit theirneeds and environment.”，由此可知答案。）
81.improving performance
（根据最后一句可知“虽然演习中使用可用的最有效的练习也许不是最有趣的，但它们可能与提高技能是最相关的。”故可知答案。）

【参考范文】
Dear Sir/ Madam,
Since the Reading Festival is around the corner, I’m writing to recommenda picture which can be used in the brochure to remind the students of thepleasure of reading.
In the picture, three students are sitting at the table, discussingheatedly what they have just read. It seems that they have had so much funthrough the discussion that even an onlooker will be excited to join in. Thereis no doubt that reading is mostly a personal activity which needs quietnessand concentration, but as far as I’m concerned, it can also be a sharingexperience from which our comprehension about the book will be greatly enhanced.Just imagine that you have read a terrific detective story with fascinating andintricate plots. You are so amazed by the genius of the writer and you can’thelp sharing it with your classmates or best friends, who turn out to have beendeeply impressed as well. The moment you mention the book, the passion andenthusiasm about the story will explode which can never be gained on your own.My ideal atmosphere of reading is just like that, through which you can notonly appreciate the content by yourself, but also have the pleasure of sharingthe plots or opinions with your peers, which will ultimately enhance yourunderstanding of the book. So it will be great benefits for people who don’tlike reading very much. Only by joining this kind of reading discussion can wediscover another world behind the books, and we will be very thrilled when itwas unfolded before you. To sum up, the reason of my recommendation is quitesimple and apparent that reading, instead of being dull and isolating, can befull of participation and common interest. I sincerely hope that you will takemy suggestion into consideration and I’m looking forward to your early reply.
Yours sincerely,
Pan Yang
