本部分共有四篇短文，每篇短文后面有四个阅读理解题，根据短文从A、B、C、D中选出最佳答案。
Passage 1
    Google, the Internet search-engine company, has announced it will give more than twenty-five million dollars in money and investments to help the poor. The company says the effort involves using the power of information and technology to help people improve their lives.
　　Aleem Walji works for Google.org -- the part of the company that gives money to good causes. He said the company’s first project will help identify where
　　infectious (传染性的) diseases are developing. In Southeast Asia and Africa, for example, Google.org will work with partners to strengthen early-warning systems and take action against growing health threats.
　　Google.org’s second project will invest in ways to help small and medium-sized businesses grow. Walji says microfinance (小额信贷) is generally small, short-term loans that create few jobs. Instead, he says Google.org wants to develop ways to bring investors and business owners together to create jobs and improve economic growth.
　　Google.org will also give money to help two climate-change programs announced earlier this year. One of these programs studies ways to make renewable (再生的) energy less costly than coal-based energy. The other is examining the efforts being made to increase the use of electric cars.

Passage 2
After practicing as a surgeon for several years, Dr. Ginoux decided to apply for membership in the American College of Surgeons, a highly selective and distinguished professional organization.
As part of the application procedure, Dr Ginoux was to prepare a list of all the operations performed in the previous seven years. Slowly, as she worked on the long list, she began to feel uncertain. She began to question some of her decisions. Had she used the best technique in that case? Maybe, in the case, she should have run one more test before operating? On the other hand, maybe she should have….. Would the doctors on the selection committee understand that, as the only trained surgeon in the area, she  usually could not get advice from others and therefore, had to rely completely on her own judgement? For the first time, Dr. Ginoux felt lonely and isolated.
The longer Dr. Ginoux worked on the application forms, the more depressed she became. As hope faded, she wondered if a “country doctor” had a realistic chance of being accepted by the American College of Surgeons.

Passage 3
I often find myself trying to explain the attraction traveling holds for me. Traveling, according to many people, is often uncomfortable and even, at least sometimes, dangerous. But one benefit of traveling is that it creates a perfect atmosphere for the observation of life, an environment that can lead to better understanding and enlightenment. Many wonderful people and places lie on the road ahead. The fact that there are obstacles as well only makes the journey more rewarding. My life and my memories will be improved after encountering these people and places. That’s a pretty big benefit!
Of course I could also enrich my life without traveling very far at all, but there is something about foreign lands that provides an additional fascination. I think most non-travelers are simply too distracted by things such as work, home, and friends to devote their full attention to observation of life. I'm more observant when I'm on the road and therefore, more alive. I talk to more people and listen to them carefully. I keenly notice everything about my strange new environment. I see a lot of humor that can compensate for(弥补) the misery(痛苦) of moving about.
21 Many people’s opinion about traveling is that ______________.
A. it’s a good chance to enjoy the natural beauty.
B. it’s an eye-opening experience.
C. it’s too costly and it’s not worth the money.
D. it’s often not comfortable and sometimes not safe.
22 Which of the following is NOT TRUE?
A. Traveling enables the author to observe life more easily.
B. Traveling enables the author to understand life better.
C. Traveling enables the author to know the importance of living in the same place.
D. Traveling enables the author to know many wonderful people and places
23        ccording to the author, __________ can only make the journey more worthwhile.
A. obstacles                  B. memories         C. additional fascination     D. benefit
24        Acording to the author, the problem with most non-travelers is that ______________.
A. they live a busy life without having fun.
B. their attention centers so much on work, home and friends that they don’t observe life wholeheartedly.
C. they consider money-making the most important thing.
D. they can’t enrich their life because they don’t travel very far.
25        According to the author, __________ can make up for the pain of going around.
A. new environment                                B. humor         
C. foreign lands                                  D. understanding
Passage 4
Your boss holds your future prospects in his hands. Some bosses are hard to get along with. Some have excellent qualifications but no idea when it comes to dealing with people. Of course, not all bosses are like that.
　　The relationship you have with your boss can be a major factor in determining your rise up the career ladder. Your boss is not only your leader, he is also the person best equipped to help you do the job you are paid to do. He can inform you of company direction that may affect your professional development.
　　Your boss also needs you to perform at your best in order to accomplish his objectives. He needs your feedback in order to provide realistic and useful reports to upper management. But how does this help you establish a meaningful working relationship with your boss?
　　The key is communication. Learn and understand his goals and priorities (优先的事). Observe and understand your boss’s work style. If he has not been clear with his expectations, ask! Likewise, ask for feedback and accept criticism gracefully. And if he understands that you do not view your job as just something to fill the hours between 9 and 5, he may be more likely to help you.
　　In short, getting along with your boss requires getting to know his likes and dislikes and learning to work with his personality and management style.

　　 A) bosses are hard to deal with       　　B) bosses have good character
