3.AI was waiting for a phone call from my agent. He had left at message the night before, telling me that my show was to be cancelled. I called him several times, but each time his secretary told me that he was in a meeting and that he would call me later. So I waited and waited, but there was still no call. Three hours passing by, I became more and more and impatient. I was certain that my agent didn’t care about my work, and he didn’t care about me. I was overcome with that thought. I started to shout at the phone, “Let me wait, will you? Who do you think you are?”At that time I didn’t realize my wife was looking on. Without showing her surprise, she rushed in, seized the phone, tore off the wires, and shouted at the phone, “Yeah! Who do you think you are? Bad telephone! Bad telephone!” And she swept it into the wastebasket.I stood watching her, speechless. What on earth...?She stepped to the doorway and shouted at the test of the house, “Now hear this! All objects in this room----if you do anything to upset my husband, out you go!”Then she turned to me. Kissed me and said calmly, “Honey, you just have to learn how to take control.” With that, she left the room.After watching a crazy woman rushing in and out, shouting at everything in sight , I noticed that something in my mood (情绪) had changed. I was laughing. How could I have trouble with that phone? Her anties helped me realize I had been driven crazy by small things. Twenty minutes later my agent did call. I was able to listen to him and talk to him and talk to him calmly.56. Why did the author shout at the telephone?A. He was mad at the telephone.B. He was angry with his agent.C.

    Why does the author say that the important part of this research began when two Harvard researchers were brought in?
    A

    Until then the research had been poorly conducted.

    B

    They took a multifaceted approach.

    C

    The results of the original research did not make sense.

    D

    Harvard had a good reputation in conducting research.


    正确答案： A
    解析：
    本题是推断题。第一段最后两句提到：当Elton Mayo and Fritz Roethlisberger这两个来自哈佛的研究人员参与进来进一步研究这些没有预料的结果时，他们发现了这一试验的重要部分，即工人们对照明水平没有什么反应，却对被实施研究者的观察产生很大的反应。这个发现推翻了原有的“照明是最重要的”的假设，而带来了后面所说的“霍桑效应”这个新发现，所以作者认为这两个人的参与使得这一研究进行了多方面研究，而不是局限在原来设想的照明、温度、湿度等方面；因此B为答案。

    Why does the author mention Fuller s The Sea？( )

    A.To point out a dance of Fuller’s in which music did not play an important role.
    B.To explain why Fuller sometimes used music by progressive composers.
    C.To ilustrate a particular way in which Fuller developed as an artist.
    D.To ilustrate how Fuller’s interest in science was reflected in her work.

    答案：C
    解析：
    细节题。根据题干关键词The Sea定位到文章第五段的第三句。该句将The Sea作为一个作品示例，但例证的观点或主题需要根据段落上下文确定。段落第一句提到“随着专业技能方面的复杂化、成熟化，富勒在舞蹈的其他方面也得到了发展”。段落第二句举出了使用音乐的例子，第三句中The Sea作为舞蹈主题方面的例子出现，由此可见，两个例子都是为了证明富勒在舞蹈其他方面的发展，而这些发展都是富勒自己独特的尝试。C项“说明富勒发展成一个艺术家的特殊方式”与之相符。A项“在富勒的一个舞蹈中，音乐的作用不大”，B项“解释为什么富勒有时会用先进音乐家的音乐”，D项“阐述富勒对科学的兴趣如何在她的作品中反映出来”，均不正确。

    Why did the Civil War break out? How did the war end?


    正确答案:—— In the early 1800s, the Northern states turned from farming to manufacturing. Black slavery soon disappeared in the North. But things were different in the South. The South expanded both its agriculture and its slavery. The problem of slavery became a serous political issue. The abolitionists tried to abolish slavery while the South tried to keep it. When Abraham Lincoln was elected President, the Southern states broke away and formed a new nation. Then Lincoln was determined to maintain the Union and the war broke out on April 12, 1861, Lincoln realized that he could win support for the Union at home and abroad by making the war a just war against slavery. So he issued Emancipation Proclamation. Thus England and France stood by the Union’s side. Many black slaves joined the Union Army. After a series of battles, Robert Lee could no longer hold Richmond. He surrendered on April 9, 1865. The Civil War ended.

    D

    reveal how much it paid to each of the bands
