I never wanted a dog, but now I’m so glad I have one.

About two years ago, my wife, Cathy, got a little dog with a face only a mother could love. We named her Gertie.

Gertie is the kind of dog that has to grow on you. So I dicided that the dog would be trained. This didn’t quite go as planned. At 15 weeks old, she was nearly made to leave the Petsmart Training School. She spent every night lying in our bed—snoring (打鼾)so loudly that I hardly got a good night’s sleep.

Then, about six months after she arrived, I felt that something in my heart was taking place, and I was unable to stop it. My behaviour(行为方式)began to change. I began to smile at people when passing them in a street. I returned(招手)from neighbours. I started calling my kids and, to my surprise, they started calling me. I even tried to speak to my grandchildren over the phone once. I even was glad to listen to laughter from a 10-month-old granddaughter. The point is that I was changing.

My wife and I both agree that it is Gertie who has changed my behaviour.

Gertie is now nearly two years old and almost fully grown. I have come to like the pet little by little, though she is my wife’s dog.

C. When Gertie was 15 weeks old.    D. About six months after Gertie arrived.

71. Which of the following is NOT mentioned about the man’s change?

A. He began to smile at people    B. He liked helping his neighbours.

C. He started calling his kids.    D. He spoke to his grandchildren over the phone.

Albert was an ordinary worker in an oil company in America. His workmates gave a nickname（绰号）“Four dollars a bucket of oil” below his name whenever and wherever he wrote down his name.

“Some people give you a nickname for ‘Four dollars a bucket’. Why aren’t you angry?” asked Rockefeller with some puzzlement in his eyes.

“Oh! Mr. Rockefeller! I like this nickname very much, because ‘Four dollars a bucket’s is our company’s advertisement. As long as someone calls me ‘Four dollars a bucket’ once, I think it’s free advertisement for our company. It’s not necessary for me to get angry. Don’t you think so, Mr. Rockdfeller?”

“Oh! What a wonderful man!” Rockefeller said excitedly when hearing Albert’s words“Young man! Work harder, you must be successful in the future! I believe in you!”

Five years later, Albert became the second board chairman after Rockefeller.

It’s so beautiful outside that spending the day in the office would be very boring. So why not take the vacations(假期)off? A new survey(调查)found that 31﹪of U.S workers don’t always take all of their vacation days. Americans have 12 vacation days on average(平均)each year, but they give back an average of 3 vacation days each year.

So why don’t they use up their vacation days? Some say they would rather get money back for their unused days; some busy workers say they just can’t leave their work. Americans have fewer vacation days than workers in any other country surveyed.

British workers have the longest working week in Europe(欧洲),with 23 vacation days -- the shortest vacation. So they feel overworked.75﹪say their weekends or vacations are too short and 40﹪would sacrifice a day’s pay(工资)for one more vacation day.

B) 阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容回答问题。（每小题2分）

It began with one red paper clip(回形针)and ended with a house. Kyle MacDonald, a 26-year-old Canadian, got a three-bedroomed house through 14 trades(交换)that started with a single red paper clip.

Encouraged by Kyle”s successful experience, now more and more young people around the world are starting their own trading activities. They set up websites where people can trade things there do not usually use with other people. A website called Peerflix allows people to trade their used DVDs. These traders usually prefer face-to-face tracing, which means they don’t have to worry about who is going to pay for the delivery(递送)。

Last year, a young girl in Beijing decided to follow the example of Kyle. She started with a paper clip. and hoped to get a house in the end. After several trades she now has a piano which is worth more than 10,000 yuan. But she may still have a long way to go.

You may be puzzled about why people are doing this. In fact, everyone in the trade activities gets things that are useful to them. Just as Kyle said, “What’s more important to a man dying of thirst in the desert—one million dollars or a glass of water?” Kyle’s words probably show why these trades are popular among young people.

81. What did Kyle get in the end through 14 trades?

82. Where can people trade things they do not usually use?

83. Why do these traders usually prefer face-to-face trading?
