Located in the northeast part of the Jiayi County in Taiwan Province, Ali Mountain is in fact the general name of the 18 hills including Zhu Hill and Tower Hill. The highest peak of Ali Mountain is Tower Hill with the height of 2,663 meters (about 8,736 feet). Ali Mountain is world famous for its ―five rare sites‖ including the Sunrise, the Ali Mountain Forest Railway, the famous Alishan Sacred Tree, the Grand Sea of Clouds, and the Flamboyant Cherry Blossom. It is said that one who has not been to Ali Mountain will never know its wonderful beauty.
The sunrise is a must for everyone who travels the Ali Mountain. Many have said, ―To miss viewing the sunrise on Ali Mountain is like returning empty after entering the Golconda, a source of great wealth.‖ The best place to view the sunrise is on the top of Zhu Hill. The place and time of the sunrise are different due to the changes of the four seasons. If you plan to view the sunrise, it is best to ask the local people the time of sunrise, so you don‘t miss this magnificent opportunity.
The Ali Mountain Forest Railway is regarded as one of three mountain climbing railways. Traveling along the 72-kilometer-long railway, the train climbs from 30 meters (about 98 feet) to 2,450 meters (about 8,038 feet) above sea level. Its gradient（坡度）is so great that it is rarely seen in the whole world. From the bottom of Ali Mountain to the top, the train crosses four forest areas—tropical, subtropical, temperate and frigid zones.
There is a Chinese juniper (杜松) within the Ali Mountain forest area, with some 53 meters (about 174 feet) high, and 23 meters (about 75 feet) wide. This juniper is so huge that more than ten people can surround it. It has a history of more than 3,000 years, thus is called Alishan Sacred Tree. The most wondrous tree is a ―three-generation‖ tree. The three generations of this tree exist in the same trunk. While the first and second generations have faded, the third generation is still The sea of clouds and the cherry blossom should not be overlooked. If you want to avoid sunstroke, the comfortable climate in mid-summer on Ali Mountain will be a good choice.

Mobile phone users will be able to charge their devices wirelessly for the first time from 2015.
Fujitsu, the Japanese technology company, has created a system capable of charging quite a few portable electronic devices in the meanwhile, such as mobile phones, digital cameras and laptop computers without the need for cable connections. Electric cars users may also eventually be able to charge their vehicles wirelessly using the same technology according to Fujitsu, which presented a system at an Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers Conference at Osaka Prefecture University.
Claiming to be the world‘s first of its kind, the technology works on the basis of the transmission of electricity using magnetic fields between the charger and the electronic device. The system enables wireless charging at distances of up to several metres, with the final aim of installing public ―charging spots‖ on the streets in order to enable easy charging around the clock.
Scientists at Fujitsu Laboratories are planning to commercially sell products including the new wireless charging system as early as 2012 but did not make it clear how much they would cost. ―This technology makes it possible to add compact wireless charging functions into mobile phones and enabling several portable devices to be charged at the same time without any restrictions（限制）on their position in association with the charger,‖ the company said in a statement.
The growing popularity of portable electronic devices ranging from iPads to e-readers is expected to fuel a boom in wireless recharging technology developments over the coming decade.
Mobile phone users in Japan can currently fill up their batteries using disposable（一次性的）portable plug-in battery-operated devices -- available at most train stations and convenience stores -- although phone companies warn any use for too long can damage the phones.
The new system displayed by Fujitsu, however, is significantly advanced and represents the next generation of portable recharging systems using highly tuned wireless technology. The company added, ―We are also looking at applying the results of this work to fields other than portable electronics, including power transmission between circuit boards or computer chips, and providing mobile charging systems for electric cars.‖
60. The writer‘s purpose of writing the passage is .
A. to analyze the current international situation
B. to introduce a new technology applied to charging wirelessly
C. to encourage customers to purchase the new charging devices
D. to warn people against using disposable portable plug-in battery-operated devices
61. .
A. using batteries B. using the electronic devices
C. using magnetic fields D. using disposable portable plug-in battery-operated devices
62. What is certain according to the passage is that .
A. the charging system can serve one portable electronic device at a time
B. all the convenience stores in Japan can provide the charging service now
C. wireless charging works within a distance of up to several metres
D. the new product doesn‘t look promising

If you drop a 12-pound cannonball（炮弹）over the side of a ship, how long will it take for it to reach the bottom of the ocean of the Mariana Trench?
The question above was an example of what scientists call Fermi problem, named Nobel Prize-winning physicist Enrico Fermi, who used problems like this to teach his students how to think for themselves. A Fermi problem does not all the information you need to solve it precisely.
What does this have to do with business or creativity? A great deal. In the real world, we frequently need to make decisions when the of information does not exist. Most often there may
not be the time or the money to make sure of all your , so your best guess will often be the best you can do.
Fermi is said to have once asked his university students how many piano tuners（调音师）there were in Chicago. To answer the question, he recommended it down into smaller, more questions, and then having the to make some guesses and assumptions. How many people live in Chicago? Three million would be a reasonable estimate. How many people per family? Assume a/an of four. How many families own pianos? one out of three. Then there are about 250,000 pianos in Chicago. would each be tuned? Maybe once every five years. That 50,000 tunings a year. How many pianos can one tuner tune in a day? Four? And how many in a year? Assuming 250 working days, one tuner can 1,000 pianos a year.
So there‘s work for 50 piano tuners in Chicago -- which, as it turns out, is close to the actual number in the Yellow Pages.
Why was guesswork so accurate? The law of averages is partly . At any point, your assumptions may be too high or too low. But because of the law of averages, your mistakes, will frequently balance out.

The question above was an example of what scientists call Fermi problem, named Nobel Prize-winning physicist Enrico Fermi, who used problems like this to teach his students how to think for themselves. A Fermi problem does not all the information you need to solve it precisely.
What does this have to do with business or creativity? A great deal. In the real world, we frequently need to make decisions when the of information does not exist. Most often there may not be the time or the money to make sure of all your , so your best guess will often be the best you can do.
Fermi is said to have once asked his university students how many piano tuners（调音师）there were in Chicago. To answer the question, he recommended it down into smaller, more questions, and then having the to make some guesses and assumptions. How many people live in Chicago? Three million would be a reasonable estimate. How many people per
family? Assume a/an of four. How many families own pianos? one out of three. Then there are about 250,000 pianos in Chicago. would each be tuned? Maybe once every five years. That 50,000 tunings a year. How many pianos can one tuner tune in a day? Four? And how many in a year? Assuming 250 working days, one tuner can 1,000 pianos a year.
So there‘s work for 50 piano tuners in Chicago -- which, as it turns out, is close to the actual number in the Yellow Pages.
Why was guesswork so accurate? The law of averages is partly At any point, your assumptions may be too high or too low. But because of the law of averages, your mistakes, will frequently balance out.

Located in the northeast part of the Jiayi County in Taiwan Province, Ali Mountain is in fact the general name of the 18 hills including Zhu Hill and Tower Hill. The highest peak of Ali Mountain is Tower Hill with the height of 2,663 meters (about 8,736 feet). Ali Mountain is world famous for its ―five rare sites‖ including the Sunrise, the Ali Mountain Forest Railway, the famous Alishan Sacred Tree, the Grand Sea of Clouds, and the Flamboyant Cherry Blossom. It is said that one who has not been to Ali Mountain will never know its wonderful beauty.

areas—tropical, subtropical, temperate and frigid zones.

This juniper is so huge that more than ten people can surround it. It has a history of more than 3,000 years, thus is called Alishan Sacred Tree. The most wondrous tree is a ―three-generation‖ tree. The three generations of this tree exist in the same trunk. While the first and second generations have faded, the third generation is still The sea of clouds and the cherry blossom should not be overlooked. If you want to avoid sunstroke, the comfortable climate in mid-summer on Ali Mountain will be a good choice.

Mobile phone users will be able to charge their devices wirelessly for the first time from 2015.
Fujitsu, the Japanese technology company, has created a system capable of charging quite a few portable electronic devices in the meanwhile, such as mobile phones, digital cameras and laptop computers without the need for cable connections. Electric cars users may also eventually be able to charge their vehicles wirelessly using the same technology according to Fujitsu, which presented a system at an Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers Conference at Osaka Prefecture University.
Claiming to be the world‘s first of its kind, the technology works on the basis of the transmission of electricity using magnetic fields between the charger and the electronic device. The system enables wireless charging at distances of up to several metres, with the final aim of installing public ―charging spots‖ on the streets in order to enable easy charging around the clock.
Scientists at Fujitsu Laboratories are planning to commercially sell products including the new wireless charging system as early as 2012 but did not make it clear how much they would cost. ―This technology makes it possible to add compact wireless charging functions into mobile phones and enabling several portable devices to be charged at the same time without any restrictions（限制）on their position in association with the charger,‖ the company said in a statement.
The growing popularity of portable electronic devices ranging from iPads to e-readers is expected to fuel a boom in wireless recharging technology developments over the coming decade.
Mobile phone users in Japan can currently fill up their batteries using disposable（一次性的）portable plug-in battery-operated devices -- available at most train stations and convenience stores

Located in the northeast part of the Jiayi County in Taiwan Province, Ali Mountain is in fact the general name of the 18 hills including Zhu Hill and Tower Hill. The highest peak of Ali Mountain is Tower Hill with the height of 2,663 meters (about 8,736 feet). Ali Mountain is world famous for its ―five rare sites‖ including the Sunrise, the Ali Mountain Forest Railway, the famous Alishan Sacred Tree, the Grand Sea of Clouds, and the Flamboyant Cherry Blossom. It is said that one who has not been to Ali Mountain will never know its wonderful beauty.
The sunrise is a must for everyone who travels the Ali Mountain. Many have said, ―To miss viewing the sunrise on Ali Mountain is like returning empty after entering the Golconda, a source of great wealth.‖ The best place to view the sunrise is on the top of Zhu Hill. The place and time of the sunrise are different due to the changes of the four seasons. If you plan to view the sunrise, it is best to ask the local people the time of sunrise, so you don‘t miss this magnificent opportunity.
The Ali Mountain Forest Railway is regarded as one of three mountain climbing railways. Traveling along the 72-kilometer-long railway, the train climbs from 30 meters (about 98 feet) to 2,450 meters (about 8,038 feet) above sea level. Its gradient（坡度）is so great that it is rarely seen in the whole world. From the bottom of Ali Mountain to the top, the train crosses four forest areas—tropical, subtropical, temperate and frigid zones.
There is a Chinese juniper (杜松) within the Ali Mountain forest area, with some 53 meters (about 174 feet) high, and 23 meters (about 75 feet) wide. This juniper is so huge that more than ten people can surround it. It has a history of more than 3,000 years, thus is called Alishan Sacred Tree. The most wondrous tree is a ―three-generation‖ tree. The three generations of this tree exist in the same trunk. While really a wonder of nature.
The sea of clouds and the cherry blossom should not be overlooked. If you want to avoid sunstroke, the comfortable climate in mid-summer on Ali Mountain will be a good choice.
56. What‘s the main idea of the first paragraph?
A. Location of Ali Mountain. B. Five rare sites of Ali Mountain.
C. Hills of Ali Mountain. D. An introduction to Ali Mountain.
57. What does the underlined word ―flourishing‖ in the fourth paragraph mean?
A. Growing well. B. Surrounding. C. Disappearing. D. Dying.
58. What‘s the best time to appreciate the sea of clouds and the cherry blossom?
A. April. B. February. C. August. D. December.
59. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A. The place and time of the sunrise are the same despite the changes of the four seasons.
B. The best place to view the sunrise is on the top of Tower Hill.
C. The highest peak of Ali Mountain is Tower Hill with the height of 2,450 meters.
D. The juniper has a history of more than 3,000 years, thus it is called Alishan Sacred Tree.

Mobile phone users will be able to charge their devices wirelessly for the first time from 2015.
Fujitsu, the Japanese technology company, has created a system capable of charging quite a few portable electronic devices in the meanwhile, such as mobile phones, digital cameras and laptop computers without the need for cable connections. Electric cars users may also eventually be able to charge their vehicles wirelessly using the same technology according to Fujitsu, which presented a system at an Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers Conference at Osaka Prefecture University.
Claiming to be the world‘s first of its kind, the technology works on the basis of the transmission of electricity using magnetic fields between the charger and the electronic device. The system enables wireless charging at distances of up to several metres, with the final aim of installing public ―charging spots‖ on the streets in order to enable easy charging around the clock.
Scientists at Fujitsu Laboratories are planning to commercially sell products including the new wireless charging system as early as 2012 but did not make it clear how much they would cost. ―This technology makes it possible to add compact wireless charging functions into mobile phones and enabling several portable devices to be charged at the same time without any restrictions（限制）on their position in association with the charger,‖ the company said in a statement.
The growing popularity of portable electronic devices ranging from iPads to e-readers is expected to fuel a boom in wireless recharging technology developments over the coming decade.
Mobile phone users in Japan can currently fill up their batteries using disposable（一次性的）portable plug-in battery-operated devices -- available at most train stations and convenience stores -- although phone companies warn any use for too long can damage the phones.
The new system displayed by Fujitsu, however, is significantly advanced and represents the next generation of portable recharging systems using highly tuned wireless technology. The company added, ―We are also looking at applying the results of this work to fields other than portable electronics, including power transmission between circuit boards or computer chips, and providing mobile charging systems for electric cars.‖
60. The writer‘s purpose of writing the passage is A. to analyze the current international situation
B. to introduce a new technology applied to charging wirelessly
C. to encourage customers to purchase the new charging devices
D. to warn people against using disposable portable plug-in battery-operated devices
61. .
A. using batteries B. using the electronic devices
C. using magnetic fields D. using disposable portable plug-in battery-operated devices
62. What is certain according to the passage is that .
A. the charging system can serve one portable electronic device at a time
B. all the convenience stores in Japan can provide the charging service now
C. wireless charging works within a distance of up to several metres
D. the new product doesn‘t look promising

The story I would like to tell happened about a year ago. I accepted a position in a company. John, an acquaintance of mine, told me much about the job and took my curriculum vitae (简历) to his supervisor. I did not refer to him as a friend because at the time we did not take part in activities together outside of work, nor did our wives.
The first week was fine. Nothing was obviously strange with John at first until the second week, when our communication began to get a little strange. John began making comments like ―‖. I soon forgot his words till the next day when he made another similar comment. Right then I started to really pay attention to what he meant. He acted as if I owed him money for helping me to get the job.
He began to get short with me and I had only been there for two weeks. He was supposed to train
