11、 church and the pub. Traditionally, the church and the pub are at the heart of any village or town, where the people gather together to socialize and exchange news. As a result, British pubs are often old and well preserved. Many of them have become historic sites. The most famous example is the pub

12、 in the city of Nottingham called “The Old Trip to Jerusalem”, which dates back to the year 1189 AD and is probably the oldest pub in England.However, British pubs are not just for kings and queens; they welcome people from all classes and parts of society. On a cold night, the pubs landlord or land

13、lady can always find a warm place for you by the fire. There is always honest and hearty food and plenty of drink available at an affordable price.Thats how things used to be. Things are beginning to change. It is said that the credit crunch (信贷紧缩) is causing 39 British pubs a week to go out of busi

14、ness. People do not have enough spare money to spend on beer. Recently, the UK government banned smoking in all pubs, and that may also have affected the number of customers going to pubs.This decline is happening despite the fact that in 2005 the UK government started to allow pubs to stay open aft

15、er 1l pm. Previously, with 1l pm as closing time, customers would have to drink quite quickly, meaning they sometimes got more drunk than they would if allowed to drink slowly. The British habit of drinking a lot very quickly is known as “binge drinking”, and it causes long-term health problems for

16、people and problems with violent crime for communities.In order to save their businesses, pubs are trying to change with the market. British pubs now offer something for everyone. A lot of pubs used to be “Working Mens Clubs”, meaning that women could not usually enter. Today, however, women can fre

17、ely enter 99% of pubs without experiencing any problems. Perhaps things are changing for the better after all.21. This passage is mainly about _.A. the past and present of British pubs B. the decline of British pubsC. the long history of British pubs D. the importance of British pubs22. Which may no

18、t be the cause of the decline of British pubs?A. The credit crunch. B. The ban of smoking.C. The present closing time. D. Having no spare money.23. We can infer from the passage that _. A. British people used to like drinking slowlyB. closing the pubs early will reduce social problemsC. binge drinki

19、ng means drinking less beer D. British government aims to discourage people from binge drinking24. We can see from the last paragraph that the author _. A. is against the admission of too many women to the pubs B. holds an optimistic attitude towards the British pubs C. thinks that women in the pubs

20、 will cause fewer social problems D. thinks that British pubs should offer everything you needBI am 26. Im clear that Im never going to catch up with Mother Teresa. But I want to do something to help people every single day like her.Everybody thinks we just serve food and soda. The safety training i

21、s serious and stressful. Caring for 49 people in a business class in 90 minutes is not easy. I had a roommate who was a waitress; she just left a candle and a table cloth burning, and I used a fire extinguisher (灭火器) to put out the fire. If something goes bad at her job, she calls the police. But if

22、 something happens up in the air, its up to us.Im single and have no kids. Ive flown every Christmas since 1995. If I fly, someone else can be with their kids. Christmas in an airport can be depressing, but its the little things that make a difference.Were not robots. Its hard to put on a smile and

23、just pretend everything is great when it isnt. Ive seen co-workers lose a family member the day before a trip and just pull themselves together (take control of their feelings and behave in a calm way). At the end of a 14-hour flight, its like, “It was really nice to help you, but Im ready for you t

24、o get off the plane.” Those last 15 minutes can be the longest 15 minutes of your life. You cant wait to turn off the flight attendants voice and get something to eat without anyone saying “Excuse me.”Sometimes I go all day and never hear a “please” or a “thank you.” When you say thank you, its huge

25、. It makes us feel like you actually see us as fellow humans. Were up there together at a height of 30,000 feet, enjoying the miracle (奇迹) of the modern flight.25.

26、mates job?A. It was the same as hers. B. It was more interesting than hers.C. It was easier than hers. D. It was more serious than hers.27. Why does the author fly every Christmas?A. Because she has nowhere to go. B. Because shes trying to be a helpful co-worker.C. Because she owes her co-workers so

27、me favors.D. Because shed like to earn more money.28. What does the author imply by saying the underlined sentence “Were not robots”?A. Flight attendants are not stronger than robots. B. Flight attendants also experience emotions.C. Flight attendants get tired while robots dont. D. Flight attendants

28、 need to rest now and then.CWhile you may think that being smart and talented would logically make someone successful in running a business, unfortunately, this is often not the case.This problem starts back in school when the stressful “group projects” are first assigned .The smartest dont want to

29、risk their grade in the class by dividing the work equally and hoping that an average student does his part well. They just take over and do the whole project themselves.And thus begins the smart-people work cycle. The smartest people do just about everything better than most everyone else until it

30、comes to running a business. They are not better; they are screwed(束缚). A smart person who cant stand someone else doing a job badly does everything himself. Then, he is stuck with the one-man band “job-business” and ends up not being able to grow. However, it is quite interesting and strange that s

31、ome slackers(偷懒的人) are better suited to be a business leader than the “smart” people. They figured out early on to surround themselves with smart people who would do the work that they themselves dont want to do.Smart and talented people often have a gift for the unusual, complicated or different. T

32、hey dont like to follow the KISS principle (keep it simple, stupid), which is required to make a business succeed. Maybe you think the global presence of McDonalds complex, but in fact, in the company, every single task is broken down into easy-to-follow steps and everything has been standardized. These successful companies have just a
