What she saw there made her stop dead in her tracks. Being a busy college student just one year removed from her teenage years, she wasn’t exactly obsessive-compulsive(有强迫观念和行为的) about the neatness of her clothes. But her boss at the 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 3 restaurant where she works saw things a little differently. He had recently lectured the entire staff on the importance of appearance, and had specifically mentioned the need for servers to wear clean, unwrinkled blouses. As an assistant manager, Janelle felt it was important to set an example for the other employees. But if she stopped to iron the blouse normally, she would be late —and work without delay was an area of even greater concern to her boss. So she grabbed her iron and plugged it in and set it for low heat. Carefully holding her blouse away from her body, she continued to iron it while she was wearing it. It seemed like a logical answer to an urgent problem. And it seemed to be working until Janelle tried to iron the collar and accidentally ironed her neck by mistake. Then it suddenly seemed like a really stupid idea and a really painful one as well. It took more time to treat her burn than it would have taken to iron her shirt properly. And she spent a miserable shift dealing with the pain of the burn. We’ve all been there, haven’t we? For me it was cutting my own hair. For a former roommate it was trying to pull his own wisdom teeth. For another college acquaintance, it was trying to change the oil in his car while the motor was still running. “There’s a right way and a wrong way of doing things,” Dad used to tell me whenever I’d spoil the look of our yard by trying out a faster, easier and more creative way of pulling weeds or edging the lawn. “If a thing is worth doing,” he said, “it’s worth doing it right.” There’s a reason why certain things are done in certain ways. Those old, boring, predictable ways work. 1．Jenelle found in the mirror that __________. A．there were stains on her blouse B．her blouse was wrinkled C．she wore heavy makeup D．she put on a wrong blouse 2．It’s learned from Paragraph 2 that______________. A．Jenelle had no sense of responsibility at work B．Jenelle failed to set an example for employees in daily work C．Jenelle didn’t care about the neatness of her clothes at all D．Jenelle’s boss put doing something on time above appearance 3．What can we infer from the fifth paragraph? A．We all have done loads of things like Janelle. B．We are careful enough in daily life. C．We all have done something creative. D．We all have tried to iron clothes while we are wearing them. 4．What does the author mainly want to tell readers in the last paragraph ? 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 4 A．Be creative. B．A bad beginning makes a bad ending. C．Stick to old ways. D．Do things right. 参考答案 1—4、BDAD 阅读理解(二) Some people will do just about anything to save money.And I am one of them.Take my family's last vacation.It was my six－year－old son's winter break from school，and we were heading home from Fort Lauderdale after a weeklong trip.The flight was overbooked，and Delta，the airline，offered us $400 per person in credits to give up our seats and leave the next day.I had meetings in New York，so I had to get back.But that didn't mean my husband and my son couldn't stay.I took my nine－month－old and took off for home.

After immigrating from England to the USA, and an unsuccessful attempt to make a living as a farmer,he moved to Chicago,where he saw the reconstruction of the city after the disastrous fire of 1871. In those days,it was nicknamed “the Garden City”,almost certainly the source of Howard’s name for his later building plan of towns. Returning to London,Howard developed his design in the 1880s and 1890s,drawing on ideas that were popular at the time,but creating a unique combination of designs. The nineteenth-century poor city was in many ways a terrible place,dirty and crowded;but it offered economic and social opportunities. At the same time,the British countryside was in fact equally unattractive:though it promised fresh air and nature,it suffered from agricultural depression(萧 条) and it offered neither enough work and wages,nor much social life. Howard’s idea was to combine the best of town and country in a new kind of settlement,the garden city. Howard’s idea was that 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 8 a group of people should set up a company,borrowing money to establish a garden city in the depressed countryside,far enough from existing cities to make sure that the land was bought at the bottom price. Garden cities would provide a central public open space,radial avenues and connecting industries. They would be surrounded by a much larger area of green belt,also owned by the company,containing not merely farms but also some industrial institutions. As more and more people moved in,the garden city would reach its planned limit—Howard suggested 32,000 people;then,another would be started a short distance away. Thus,over time,there would develop a vast planned house collection,extending almost without limit;within it,each garden city would offer a wide range of jobs and services,but each would also be connected to the others by a rapid transportation system,thus giving all the economic and social opportunities of a big city. 1. How did Howard get the name for his building plan of garden cities? A. Through his observation of the country life. B. Through the combination of different ideas. C. By taking other people’s advice. D. By using the nickname of the reconstructed Chicago. 2. The underlined phrase “drawing on” in Paragraph 1 probably means . A. making use of B. making comments on C. giving an explanation of D. giving a description of 3. According to Howard,garden cities should be built . A. as far as possible from existing cities 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 9 B. in the countryside where the land was cheap C. in the countryside where agriculture was developed D. near cities where employment opportunities already existed 4.

Each one would contain a certain type of business. 5. What could be the best title for the passage? A. City and Countryside B. The Invention of the Garden City C. A New City in Chicago D.
