• 2．Dr.Chien-Shiung Wu，also known as "the First Lady of Physics，" fundamentally transformed modern physical theory and changed our accepted view of the structure of the universe.
     Born in a small town near Shanghai，Wu attended a school started by her father，who believed in education for girls，despite it being an uncommon belief at that time.She went on to study physics at Nanjing University，where she first pursued mathematics but quickly switched her major to physics，inspired by Marie Curie.And in 1936，she moved to the United States，where she pursued doctor's degree in physics from the University of California，Berkeley in 1940.Then，she taught briefly at Smith College before being hired as Princeton University's first female instructor.
     A year later，Dr.Wu accepted a post at Columbia University，where she became involved in the Manhattan Project，designing and building the world's first atomic bombs.She held various positions with the university until her retirement in 1981，but is best known for her experiments on beta decay（β衰變） in 1957.Dr.Wu's groundbreaking experiments proved Drs.Tsung- Dao Lee and Chen Ning Yang's theory right.This resulted in Lee and Yang receiving the 1957 Nobel Prize in Physics for their theory，while Dr.Wu's experimental proof of the theory was overlooked.
     In her later life，Dr.Wu devoted much of her time to educational programs，promoting girls in the STEM fields both in the US and in China.Her motivational story made her a hero for many young women scientists，just as her name "Chien-Shiung" implies.She was so great that she was elected as a member of the National Academy of Sciences in 1958，and in 1990，Dr.Wu became the first living scientist with an asteroid（行星） named after jye.ai.Her book Beta Decay，published in 1965，is still a standard reference for nuclear physicists.
  
  （1）What can we infer about Dr.Wu's father？

  
  A．He advocated gender equality.
  B．He founded Nanjing University.
  C．He forced her to switch her major.
  D．He challenged the view of the universe.
  （2）What made Dr.Wu most famous in the world？

  
  A．Building the world's first atomic bombs.
  B．Various positions at Columbia University.
  C．Being awarded the Nobel Prize in physics.
  D．Contributions in experiments on beta decay.
  （3）What is the last paragraph mainly about？

  
  A．Dr.Wu's book Beta Decay.
  B．Dr.Wu's finding of the asteroid.
  C．Dr.Wu's academic and social status.
  D．Dr.Wu's name and her motivational story.
  （4）Which words can best describe Dr.Wu？

  
  A．Enthusiastic and considerate.
  B．Pioneering and inspiring.

• 3．"When people talk，listen completely." Those words of Ernest Hemingway might be a pretty good guiding principle for many people.
     Some firms use a technique known as a "listening circle" in which participants are encouraged to talk openly and honestly about the issues they face（such as problems with colleagues）.In such a circle，only one person can talk at a time and there is no interruption.A study cited in the Harvard Business Review found that employees who had taken part in a listening circle suffered less social anxiety and had fewer worries about work-related matters than those who did not afterwards.
     Listening has been critical to the career of Richard Mullender，who was a British police officer for 30 years.Eventually he became a negotiator.When he left the force，he realised that his skills might be applicable in the business world.So he set up a firm called the Listening Institute.Mr Mullender defines listening as "the identification，selection and interpretation of the key words that turn information into intelligence".It is crucial to all effective communication.
     Plenty of people think that good listening is about nodding your head or keeping eye contact.But that is not really listening，Mr Mullender argues.A good listener is always looking for facts，emotions and indications of the speaker's values.
     Another important point to bear in mind is that，when you talk，you are not listening. "Every time you share an opinion，you give out information about yourself，" Mr Mullender says.
     The lockdown has increased the need for managers to listen to workers，since the opportunities for casual conversation have dwindled.Mr Mullender thinks that many people have become depressed in their isolation（隔離），which can lead to stress and anger.He thinks there may be a business opportunity in helping managers listen more efficiently，so they can enhance employee well-being.After a year of isolation，many workers would probably love the chance to be heard.
  
  （1）What is the value of attending a "listening circle"？

  
  A．Employees can relieve stress.
  B．Managers give comfort to colleagues.
  C．Employees may become more honest.
  D．Managers can solve technology problems.
  （2）According to Mr Muilender，the key to being a good listener is

  .
  A．talking with speakers
  B．keeping eyes communication
  C．giving out your information
  D．focusing on the analysis of speakers
  （3）What does the underlined word "dwindled" in the last paragraph probably mean？

  
  A．Increased.
  B．Promoted.
  C．Shrank.
  D．Disappeared.
  （4）Which can be a suitable title for the text？

  
  A．The Definition of Listening
  B．The Secret of Successful Listening
  C．The Importance of Listening Circle
  D．The Listening Principle for Managers

      Married for almost 30 years， Paula was living a happy life. One day， Paula was in the bathroom cleaning everything up， from the sink to the floor and the shower. She had a ring that her husband，Michael，bought for their 20th wedding anniversary on her finger. The golden ring with the couple's names engraved （雕刻） on it was something she would cherish.
      As soon as Paula finished washing the bathtub， she moved on to the most unpleasant part-- the toilet. Wanting to get it out of the way， she quickly cleaned the inside of the toilet with a brush， and washed the toilet bowl cleaner away.
      After finishing， she felt something lost. Paula's heart skipped a beat as soon as she looked down at her ring hand. She was horrified to find that her treasured anniversary gift was gone! Paula couldn't believe that she just let several thousand dollars go down the drain （排水孔）. She searched the rest of the bathroom and even the whole house， hoping that she just dropped it somewhere and forgot about it. She even took the toilet apart and searched inside the pipes with a flashlight， but in vain.
     Paula was desperate at the thought that the ring could have been washed away and buried under waste and sewage （污水） in a dark pipeline. Even the most experienced sewer worker was unlikely to find it， she thought.
      Paula had no idea how she was going to tell her husband about it. Michael worked extra hard for years to save money， so to tell him the incident was unimaginable to her. When Michael came home from work， Paula knew that there was no going back now. Visibly sweaty and nervous， she said that she had bad news to tell him. Michael became worried， but listened. Paula cried and told everything that had happened. Michael was quiet in the whole process， and his face didn't show any anger， which made Paula worried. She thought he was so angry that he couldn't even say anything.
      Suddenly， Michael interrupted the silence. _________.
      Several days later， Ted， Director of the Public Works Department， visited Paula unexpectedly._________.
