10、g they had to buy something. Annie hesitated for a moment before stepping through the doorway where, almost at once, she stopped _21_ before a green armchair.

14、passages below is followed by five questions. For each question there are four answers. Read the passages carefully and choose the best answer to each of the questions. Put your choice in the brackets on the left. (10 points)Text 1There are a great many careers in which the increasing emphasis is on
15、 specialization. You find these careers in engineering, in production, in statistical work, and in teaching. But there is an increasing demand for people who are able to take in great area at a glance, people who perhaps do not know too much about any one field. There is, in other words, a demand fo
16、r people who are capable of seeing the forest rather than the trees, of making general judgments. We can call these people “generalists.” And these “generalists” are particularly needed for positions in administration, where it is their job to see that other people do the work, where they have to pl
17、an for other people, to organize other peoples work, to begin it and judge it.The specialist understands one field; his concern is with technique and tools. He is a “trained” man; and his educational background is properly technical or professional. The generalist - and especially the administrator
18、- deals with people; his concern is with leadership, with planning, and with direction giving. He is an “educated” man; and the humanities are his strongest foundation. Very rarely is a specialist capable of being an administrator. And very rarely is a good generalist also a good specialist in parti
19、cular field. Any organization needs both kinds of people, though different organizations need them in different proportions. It is your task to find out, during your training period, into which of the two kinds of jobs you fit, and to plan your career accordingly.Your first job may turn out to be th
20、e right job for you - but this is pure accident. Certainly you should not change jobs constantly or people will become suspicious of your ability to hold any job. At the same time you must not look upon the first job as the final job; it is primarily a training job, an opportunity to understand your
21、self and your fitness for being an employee.26. There is an increasing demand for _.A all round people in their own fieldsB people whose job is to organize other peoples workC generalists whose educational background is either technical or professionalD specialists whose chief concern is to provide
22、administrative guidance to others27. The specialist is _.A a man whose job is to train other peopleB a man who has been trained in more than one fieldsC a man who can see the forest rather than the treesD a man whose concern is mainly with technical or professional matters28. The administrator is _.
23、A a “trained” man who is more a specialist than a generalistB a man who sees the trees as well as the forestC a man who is very strong in the humanitiesD a man who is an “educated” specialist29. During your training period, it is important _.A to try to be a generalistB to choose a profitable jobC t
24、o find an organization which fits youD to decide whether you are fit to be a specialist or a generalist30. A mans first job _.A is never the right job for himB should not be regarded as his final jobC should not be changed or people will become suspicious of his ability to hold any jobD is primarily
25、 an opportunity to fit himself for his final jobText 2At the bottom of the world lies a mighty continent still wrapped in the Ice Age and, until recent times, unknown to man. It is a great land mass with mountain ranges whose extent and elevation are still uncertain. Much of the continent is a compl
26、ete blank on our maps. Man has explored, on foot, less than one per cent of its area. Antarctica differs fundamentally from the Arctic regions. The Arctic is an ocean, covered with drifting packed ice and hemmed in by the land masses of Europe, Asia, and North America. The Antarctic is a continent a
27、lmost as large as Europe and Australia combined, centered roughly on the South Pole and surrounded by the most unobstructed water areas of the world - the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans.The continental ice sheet is more than two miles high in its centre, thus, the air over the Antarctic is far
28、 more refrigerated than it is over the Arctic regions. This cold air current from the land is so forceful that it makes the nearby seas the stormiest in the world and renders unlivable those regions whose counterparts at the opposite end of the globe are inhabited. Thus, more than a million persons
29、live within 2,000 miles of the North Pole in an area that includes most of Alaska, Siberia, and Scandinavia - a region rich in forest and mining industries. Apart from a handful of weather stations, within the same distance of the South Pole there is not a single tree, industry, or settlement.31. Th
30、e best title for this selection would be _.A IcelandB Land of OpportunityC The Unknown ContinentD Utopia at Last32. At the time this article was written, our knowledge of Antarctica was _.A very limitedB vastC fairly richD nonexistent33. Antarctica is bordered by the _.A Pacific OceanB Indian OceanC Atlantic OceanD All three34. The Antarctic is made uninhabitable primarily by _.A cold airB calm seasC iceD lack of knowledge a
