Passage One
Shortly after the war, my brother and I were invited to spend a few days' holiday with an uncle who had just returned from abroad. He rented a cottage in the country, although he rarely spent much time there. The cottage, however, had no comfortable furniture in it, many of the windows were broken and the roof leaked, making the whole house damp.
On our first evening, we sat around the fire after supper listening to the stories our uncle had had to tell of his many adventures in distant countries. I was so tired after the long train journey that I would have preferred to go to bed, but I could not bear to miss any of my uncle's exciting tales.
He was just in the middle of describing a rather terrifying experience he had, when there was a loud crash from the bedroom above, the one where my brother and I were going to sleep.
"It sounds as if the roof has fallen in!" shouted my uncle, with a loud laugh.
When we got to the top of the stairs and opened the bedroom door, a strange sight met our eyes. A large part of the ceiling had collapsed (坍塌), falling right on to the pillow of my bed. I was glad that I had stayed up late to listen to my uncle's stories, otherwise I should certainly have been seriously injured, perhaps killed.
That night we all slept on the floor of the sitting room downstairs not wishing to risk our lives by sleeping under a roof which might at any moment collapse on our heads. We left for London the very next morning and my uncle gave up his cottage in the country. This was not the kind of adventure he cared for, either!

A.He had a lot of adventures.
B.He fought as a soldier.
C.He made a lot of money.
D.He enjoyed many of his adventures.

B.Henry sat down in }lis seat and fastened the seat belt without any help.
C.Thanks to the air hostess, Henry knew how to find his seat and fasten the seat belt.
D.With the help of the hostess, Henry got into the plane.
Journalists and TV people, we know, are () to record what goes on: but in trying to get the best () they can, they may sometimes seem amazingly cold-blooded. In the massacre that followed the British quitting India, () was a photographer who made a sorrowing Indian family bury and rebury () dead several times () he got a perfect shot. A BBC sound man held up a Nigerian execution for half an hour while he adjusted his sound equipment; you could say it didn 't () any difference to the final outcome, but it doesn 't make you feel especially warm towards the man () .
Should journalists and photographers join in, () just stand back and watch while people kill () another? It 's a tricky question, not just a () of how brave anyone is feeling at the time, () without authentic pictures, how will the world know, how should the world believe () crimes are committed? One dead photographer does not do much for the cause he cares about, even () he did feel forced to join in and take sides.
To stay out of the fight, to write () what 's going on, to treat () with both sides, as a doctor will cure soldiers in () uniform. or a lawyer argue for either side —that is supposed to be our code, and when it () to the crutch, we probably do better trying to stick () that, than rushing off on individual impulse. But is there not a point in any profession () you are forced back against the wall () a human being? I think there is, and I was.

I did not get what I wanted when I did not ask for it. We had cubiele(小隔间) offices and window offices. I sat in the cubicles with several male colleagues. One by one they were moved into window offices, while I remained in the cubicles. Several males who were hired after me also went to offices. One in particular told me he was next in line for an office and that it had been part of his negotiations for the job. I guess they thought me content to stay in the cubicles since I did not voice my opinion either way.
It would be nice if we all received automatic pay increases equal to our merit, but "nice" isn't a quality attributed to most organizations. If you feel you deserve a significant raise in pay, you'll probably have to ask for it.
Performance is your best bargaining chip(筹码) when you are seeking a raise. You must be able to demonstrate that you deserve a raise. Timing is also a good bargaining chip. If you can give your boss something he or she needs (a new client or a sizable contract,for example) just before merit pay decisions are being made, you are more likely to get the raise you want.
Use information as a bargaining chip too. Find out what you are worth on the open market. What will someone else pay for your services?
Go into the negotiations prepared to place your chips on the table at the appropriate time and prepared to use communication style. to guide the direction of the interaction.
According to the passage,before taking a job, a person should______.
A.demonstrate his capability
B.give his boss a good impression
C.ask for as much money as he can
D.ask for the salary he hopes to get
The next morning, at the appointed hour, the Judge, came up the dirt road, leading the sorriest looking specimen of a horse ever seen in those parts of Illinois. The large crowd viewing the spectacle burst out laughing, already knowing that Abe Lincoln was bound to get the worst of the deal. A poorer horse just couldn't exist anywhere and still be walking.
In a few minutes, however, Mr. Lincoln was seen approaching the general store carrying something quite large and bulky on his shoulders. As he drew nearer, the crowd saw what it was, and great shouts and laughter broke out. The shouts and laughter soon broke into a thunderous roar when Mr. Lincoln, looking carefully and seriously over the Judge's animal, set down his sawhorse(锯木架), and exclaimed, "Well, Judge, this is the first time I ever got the worst of it in a horse trade."

A.the life of Abe Lincoln
