The team I work in just has 2 new interns(实习生), and I happen to be their supervisor.
After todays lunch break, I saw that one of them was reading things on her smart-phone, maybe on some social network, I guessed. I went to her and said “There’s another document here needing translation. Do you have time to finish it for me?”
That document was not in her assigned workload. But I thought I could let her challenge herself a little bit with it, seeing that she seemed to have time.
“Yes, I do have time.” She said, “But I’m just an intern.”
I didn’t quite know what to say back then. After a while I mumbled(咕哝) “Right. Yes.” And I turned around and left.
I recalled the time when I was an intern for the first time. I, too, managed to finish my workload so fast, just like her. So I asked my supervisor “Is there anything else that I can help?” And she happened to have a plan to make. But she didn’t have time. So she let me do the research and make a draft for her.
I was not very familiar with the job but still tried to carry it out based on my understanding and make it as professional as possible. And my supervisor was really satisfied with the draft. Later, she told me “You saved me a lot of time. I didn’t need to create it from scratch.” And she told me in details how I should have done the plan differently. I learned a lot about the operation in the process. After that, she had come to trust me completely. I got my current job all because of her recommendation.
Yes, I was just an intern with a low salary. But I bought a better future with my extra labor.
There’s a kind of poverty called shortsightedness.
1.What was the intern doing when the supervisor saw her?
A. reading things. B. having lunch.
C. translating documents. D. doing her workload.
2.Why did the supervisor tum around and leave?
A. She wanted to translate the document. B. She got extremely angry.
C. She had nothing o say back. D. She finished her workload.
3.What do you think of the supervisor?
A. Far-sighted. B. Considerate.
C. Aggressive. D. Strict.
4.What should you do as an interrn according to the text?
A. To finish the workload as fast as possible.
B. To actively do some extra labor and learn more.
C. To make more and more plans and carry them out.
D. To help your supervisor as much as possible.

If cars had wings,they could fly and that just might happen, beginning in 2011.The company Terrafugia, based in Woburn, Massachusetts, says it plans to deliver its car-plane, the Transition, to customers by the end of 2012.
“It’s the next ‘wow’ vehicle,”said Terrafugia vice president Richard Gersh.“ Anybody can buy a Ferrari, but as we say, Ferraris don’t fly.”
The car plane has wings that unfold for flying—a process the company says takes one minute—and fold(折叠) back up for driving. A runway is still required to take off and land.
The Transition is being marketed more as a plane that drives than a car that flies, although it is both. The company has been working with FAA to meet aircraft regulations, and with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to meet vehicle safety regulations.
The company is aiming to sell the Transition to private pilots as a more convenient and cheaper way to fly. They say it saves you the trouble from trying to find another mode of transportation to get to and from airports: You drive the car to the airport and then you’re good to go. When you land, you fold up the wings and hit the road. There are no expensive parking fees because you don’t have to store it at an airport—you park it in the garage at home.
The car-plane is designed to fly primarily under 10,000 feet. It has a maximum takeoff weight of 1,430 pounds, including fuel and passengers. Terrafugia says the Transition reduces the potential for an accident by allowing pilots to drive under bad weather instead of flying into marginal(临界)conditions.
The Transition’s price tag: $194,000, But there may be additional charges for options like a radio, transponder or GPS. Another option is a full-plane parachute. “If you get into a very awful situation, it is the necessary safety option,” Gersh said.
So far, the company has more than 70 orders with deposits. “We’re working very closely with them, but there are still some remaining steps,” Brown said.
1.We can learn from the first paragraph that .
A. car- planes will be popular in 2012
B. people might drive a car-plane in 2012
C. both Transition and Ferrari can take off and land
D. Richard Gersh is the vice president of Massachusetts
2.lt takes the car-plane one minute to .
A. fold and unfold its wings
B. unfold wings for flying
C. land in the airport
D. meet flying safety regulations
3.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A.The car-plane needs a runway to take off and land.
B.To meet aircraft regulations, the company has been working with FAA.
C.The car-plane may fly as high as normal planes.
D.People can park the car-plane in the garage at their home.
4.The underlined word“it”in the last but one paragraph refers to .
A.the radio B.the transponder
C.the GPS D.the full-plane parachute
5.What’s the best title for the passage?
A. A more Convenient and Cheaper Way to Fly.
B.Which to Choose: A Ferraris or a Car Plane?
C. Cars With Wings May Be Just Around The Corner.
D.Cars With Wings Can Fly as Fast as Planes.

Too much work and too much wine go together like biscuits and cheese, a new international studies finds. Employees who work more than 48 hours a week are 11 percent more likely to over-consume (过渡消费) alcohol than those who work standard time, Finnish researchers say. The study looked at more than 300,000 people in Australia, Europe and North America. No differences were seen between men and women, says the study, published in the British Medical Journal.
Risky alcohol consumption is considered as more than 14 drinks a week for women and more than 21 drinks a week for men. About 20 percent of Australians drink at levels that put them at risk of lifetime harm from injury or disease. Drinking alcohol can affect the liver or cause brain damage, heart disease, high blood pressure and increase the risk of many cancers.
Study author Marianna Virtanen said while alcohol might help ease the stress of working long periods of time, risky consumption could lead to difficulties in the workplace, such as poor performance. The European Union Working Time Directive ensures that workers in EU countries have the right to work no more than 48 hours a week, including overtime. “ But many people , for example well-educated managers and professionals, work much longer hours to achieve faster promotions (晋升), salary increases, and more control over work and employment,” said Prof. Virtanen from the Finnish Institute of Occupational Health.
1.Which place of the following is NOT referred to about the study?
A. Australia
B. Europe.
C. North America.
D. South America.
2.How many drinks is regarded as risky alcohol consumption for women?
A. No more than 14 drinks a week.
B. More than 14 drinks a week.
C. More than 21 drinks a week.
D. Between 14 and 21 drinks a week.
3.Some people work overtime in order to _______.
A. get promotions earlier.
B. get more retirement pay.
C. change more jobs.
D. Make themselves famous among colleagues.
4.What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. Too much work can lead to alcoholism.
B. The bad effect of drinking alcohol.
C. The different standard on alcoholism.
D. Too much wine can lead to hard work.
