Jose Alberto Gutierrez's life would never be the same again after finding a copy of Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy in the garbage 20 years ago. It happened while he was driving his garbage truck through wealthier neighborhoods at night and seeing deserted books. It sparked his desire to start rescuing books from the garbage. He took home between 50 and 60 books every morning after his nine-hour shift. Eventually, he turned his book collection into a community library.
Colombia's capital city of Bogota has 13 million residents and 19 public libraries. However, these libraries tend to be far away from where rural and poorer communities live. The option of buying new books is non-existent for families struggling to make ends meet. Having access to a library of books and being taken away to another world while absorbed in a book is a luxury for the kids who visit Gutierrez's library.
Gutierrez grew up poor, and his family could not afford to educate him beyond primary school. Nevertheless, his mother was a keen reader and read stories to him every night. Her love for books left a deep impression on Gutierrez, who never let a lack of formal education stop him from reading classics by the likes of Victor Hugo, Mario Vargas Llosa and Gabriel Garcia Marquez.
Today, his community library, called" The Strength of Words", occupies most of his home and is piled from floor to ceiling with fiction and non-fiction titles. Everything from school textbooks to story books can be found in his collection of more than 20,000 books!
The Strength of Words library opens every weekend. It is not just school-going children who are enjoying the benefits of The Strength of Words library. Adults are also welcome to expand their horizons and develop new skills to build a better life for themselves.
Despite having done so much for his community, Gutierrez is not yet content to call it a day. He continues to search through bins for reading material and has even travelled to book fairs in Mexico and Chile to sell his idea of building library from unwanted books.
24.What inspired Gutierrez to build the community library
A.The dilemma he faced on the night shift.
B.The hobby he has started since childhood.
C.Famous novelists he liked very much.
D.Abandoned books he came across at work.
25.What can we learn about Gutierrez's mother
A.She was born into a poor family.
B.She bought Gutierrez many books.
C.She influenced Gutierrez greatly.
D.She enjoyed reading Hugo's works.
26.What does the underlined phrase “call it a day" in the last paragraph mean
A.Take the time.
B.Stop the work.
C.Make a change.
D.Receive a reward.
27.What does Gutierrez's story tell us
A.A book holds a house of gold.
B.The early bird catches the worm.
C.Good things come to those who wait.
D.One man's trash is another man's treasure.

An environmental group in Colombia is leading a project to save wild areas in the San Lucas Mountains with the help of coffee growers.
Since 2016,San Lucas areas have been threatened by mining and coca(古柯)planting Gold miners and coca growers make more money than coffee farms. Now the group WebConserva helps link coffee farmers with coffee processors from around the country in order that they can earn more. At the same time coffee farms can serve as boarders around the forests to protect the biodiversity within.
To date, the project includes 10 families who farm 400 hectares of coffee plants. WebConserva said it hopes, in time, 200 families will be included. At that level. 20,000 hectares of untouched forest could be protected. The families promise not to cut down trees to expand their crops or to hunt wild animals. In return, they receive $300 for 125 kilograms of coffee.
Arcadio Barajas is among those taking part. His coffee farm sets up a barrier between cattle farms and forests where wild animals live, thus reducing the possibility of conflict between cattle farmers and wild animals. “Cutting down the forest to plant coca and killing wildlife were against my faith, and now I feel that growing coffee lets me be a good guard of the land," he said.
Amnobis Romero is a former coca grower and miner. "Many families depended on illegal activities to support their children years ago. Now, we feel it a duty to look after this biodiversity and leave it for future generations," he said. Activists want San Luvas to be protected as a national park, but the process has been slow. Carlos Valderrama, director of Webconserva, hopes the project can build production system that will last far into the future. “It protects forests, biodiversity and ecosystems at the same time as improving coffee growers' quality of life," he said.
28.What does the underlined word" they" in Paragraph 2 refer to
A.Coffee farmers.
B.WebConserva members.
C.Gold miners.
D.Coca growers.
29.How does WebConserva members save wild areas in San Lucas
A.By increasing cattle farms.
B.By setting up a barrier.
C.Ry developing gold mining.
D.By encouraging coffee farming.
30.What does the author intend to show by mentioning Arcadio Barajas and Arnobis Romero
A.Families have enough money for their kids.
B.Coffee planting will last for several generations.
C.Coffee farming changed the former coca growers' lives.
D.The project benefit the forests more than the local farmers.
31.What can be inferred from the text
A.Families protecting wildlife will get very rich.
B.WebConserva benefits ecosystems and local people's life.
C.Gold mining and coca farming have been replaced rapidly.
D.San Lucas will develop into a national park in the near future.
D
As the concept of emotional intelligence (EI)has gone global, we’ve watched professionals fail as they try to improve their emotional intelligence because they either don't know where to focus their efforts or they haven't understood how to improve these skills on a practical level. In our work consulting with companies and coaching leaders, we have found that if you're looking to develop particular EI strengths, it helps to consider areas for improvement others have identified along with the goals you want to achieve and then to actively build habits in those areas rather than simply relying on understanding them conceptually.
The first step is to get a sense of how your self-perception (how you see yourself) differs from your reputation (how others see you).This is especially true for the development of EI because we can be blind to how we express and read the emotional components of our interactions. For example, most of us think that we're good listeners, but very often that's really not the case. Without this external reality check, it will be difficult for you to identify the ways that your actions affect your performance. Getting teed back from others can also provide proof of the necessity of shifting our behavior and motivation to do so.
To give you the best sense of where the differences lie between your self-perception and reputation, you should use a 360-degree feedback assessment that takes into account the multiple aspects of EI. The key is to find one to give you feedback, which is focused on development and not on performance assessment. And that can give you a detailed understanding of how other people's assessments of you differ from your own assessments.
Secondly, when you get your feedback from an assessment, let that inform what you want to improve. But also consider what your goals are. When it comes to cultivating strengths in emotional intelligence, you’re at a huge disadvantage if you're only interested because others say you should be
Your emotional intelligence is so tied up in your sense of self that being intrinsically(内在的) motivated to make the effort matters more when changing longstanding habits than it does when simply learning a skill.
That means the areas that you choose to actively work on should lie at the intersection of the feedback you’ve gotten and the areas that are most important to your own aspirations(抱负) Understanding the influences of your current El habits relative to your goals will keep you going over a long period at time as you do the work or strengthening your emotional intelligence.
32.What do we know from the first paragraph
A.El can be better improved with others’ help.
B.Leaders are badly in need of improving their EL.
D.Professionals fail to understand the concepts of El.
33.According to the passage, which of the following is an "external reality check"7
A.You help your siblings make a key decision.
B.Your career development speeds up with others’ help.
C.You reflected yourself and made a New Year resolution.
D. Your teacher directed you towards a better attitude in study.
34.What's the main idea of Paragraph 4
A.To improve your El, following your inner call is the most reliable.
B.It's bard for others to know your El because it hides deep inside.
C To improve your El, you should take your goals into consideration.
D Acquiring a new skill is more significant than improving your EI.
35. Which of the following might the author agree with
A. Your inner self discourages you from improving your EI.
B. Effective EI development is determined by different factors.
C. The importance of performance assessment is underestimated.
D. EI development is unlikely to happen unless you know what EI is.
第二节 供 5 小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项 选项中有两项为多余选项.
During job or school interviews, you're likely to be asked what your strengths and weaknesses are, because the interviewers are interested in how your areas of strengths and weaknesses might affect your performance in this position. 36 For instance, you may be skilled in cooking, but if you're applying for an office job, this strength may be irrelevant.
However, knowing your personal areas of strengths and weaknesses is not a piece of cake. It takes self-awareness and self-reflection. So ask yourself what you are good or weak at. _37
38 For example, let’s say my strength is creativity and yours is planning; we both want to have the same career. We might go about getting there in very different ways. If I did something creative to get my dream job and you planned carefully, we'd both likely be successful. But if I tried planning and you tried something creative, both of us might fail._39
Having a weakness doesn't have to be a bad thing. It could be something you struggle with, but it could also be something you haven't spent time developing yet. 40 For example, maybe your area of weakness is relevant to gratitude. You just haven't spent a lot of time thinking about gratitude before. But now you engage in a bunch of activities that help you turn gratitude into an area of strength. Hey, now you've got one more skill!
A.Is it proper to begin with a truthful answer
B.Our areas of strengths can help us achieve our goals.
C.Or,ask your friends about your qualities or weaknesses.
D.Thus, it's helpful to know your strengths related to the role.
E.Many job applicants are unsure how to approach this question.
F.By turning a weakness into a strength, you build other important skills.
G.That's why it is important to know and use our strengths to reach goals.

W:Thank you, Ron. I'm Katie Gill here at the corner of Greenwood and Pine, where the heat of the fire can still be felt some 100 fect away. The fire is said to have started inside the local store and it has spread to the surrounding apartment buildings. As we speak, fire fighters and the police are helping those who could not make it outside without assistance. Though many seem to be safe, there is not much relief left to the people of Battery Park. According to the fire department, the fire began early last night after the bakery closed. There seems to be a problem with the water system in the area and it is stopping the fire prevention system from turning on. Many have come from local areas with food and water to help. As far as we know, no one has been injured yet by the fire because most people have known to leave the building hours ago, but as these lucky people stand outside of their burning homes, they do not feel calm. This will be an August that the people of Battery Park will not forget any time. Now back to you in the studio.
