試題分析：
小題1:.B 通讀全文可知，在面試的等待的時候，他非常緊張。  
小題2:C 從短文的情景看，顯然是James自己不知如何是好。   
小題3:C 后暗示題。下文有for nearly an hour和…an hour earlier。   
小題4:A 該文除James外，還談到了另外一個應聘者(a woman)的情況。James—nervous, the woman—confident,兩人形成了對比，所以選A。   
小題5:B由于自己緊張，女應聘者自信，再加上女應聘者“had been in there for nearly an hour”,所以該空用sure符合短文大意。   
小題6:D 上下文串聯(lián)。他是來參加面試希望得到那份工作，而這位女應聘者似乎已經(jīng)得到了。
小題7:D 后暗示題，下文中的“…such a lot before the day of the interview. He had imagined himself…”說明James對應聘這份工作很重視，極想得到這份工作，所以選 so much。
小題8:A 因為“極想得到這份工作”，所以“It meant everything to him”. happiness較everything過于具體、片面。   
小題9:C 后暗示題。從下句中“He had imagined himself…”可看出他是在想，而非做夢。   
小題10:B explaining, answering, writing都是表示單項的、具體的動作。performing可以表示應聘面試時總的表現(xiàn)情況，填在空缺處更符合文意。   
小題11:C imagine的搭配(動名詞)，想象“被給工作”時的情景。   
小題12:D “But”表示語義上的轉折，說明現(xiàn)在的感覺與前一天的想象截然不同，所以feeling后應填一個表示“糟糕”的詞。   
小題13:D情急之下，James記不住事先計劃好的臺詞。   
小題14:C 動詞辨析。A擁有B教C計劃D供應；James記不住事先計劃好的臺詞。
小題15:A 前后暗示題。他幾乎要站起來離開，而不是進去。   
小題16:C 三個短語take back(收回)、put off(推遲)、put down(鎮(zhèn)壓、寫下來)都常做及物動詞, give up(放棄)既可做及物動詞，也可做不及物動詞，填在這里，既符合語意，又符合句子結構。   
小題17:B語意題。她對自己的表現(xiàn)很滿意。   
小題18:D看到她得意的表情，James更相信她搶了自己的工作，所以恨她
小題19:C “that he had gone home after all”是虛擬語氣形式，表達與事實相反的愿望，四個選項中只有 wish才有這種用法。   
小題20:A 由于緊張，雙腿顫抖，額頭冒汗。要填的為獨立主格結構中的現(xiàn)在分詞shaking。
點評：這篇短文主要描寫James在辦公室外面等候應聘面試時的心理活動，通篇以James的緊張、憂慮為主線。本文設空合理，考查全面，對于心理描寫十分到位，要根據(jù)上下文的語義串聯(lián)全文。著重詞義的辨析，要求根據(jù)上下文的語境來判斷使用詞匯。

                            C
Have you ever been afraid to talk back when you were treated unfairly? Have you ever bought something just because the salesman talked you into it?  Many people are afraid to support themselves. Dr. Robert Albert， author of Stand Up， Speak Out， and Talk Back，thinks it’s because their self-respect is low. “There s always a ‘superior’ (長輩) around ˉa parent， a teacher， a boss—— who knows better.” But Albert and other scientists are doing something to help people help themselves. They offer “assertiveness(維護) training” courses——A.T. for short. In the A. T. Course people learn that they have a right to be themselves. They learn to speak out and feel good about doing so. They learn to be aggressive (進攻的) without hurting other people. In one way， learning to speak out is to get rid of fear. A group taking an A. T. Course will help the timid (懦弱的) person to lose his fear. But A. T. uses an even stronger motive (動機)——the need to share. The timid person speaks out in the group because he wants to tell how he feels. Whether or not you speak up for yourself depends on your self-respect. If someone you face is more “important” than you， you may feel less of a person. You start to doubt your answers to problems. You can get to feel good about yourself. And once you do you can learn to speak out.

A. make people distrust their own answers        
B. make things more favorable for “superiors”

A. share the need of people                      
B. show they have a right to be themselves

Writing a long book seemed to be too much for me. So, for a long time, I just wrote short articles. One day, inspiration(靈感) for an article hit me and, as I started writing, paragraphs began flowing out fast. It turned out to be too long to be an article. I thought it would not hurt to try self-publishing a booklet(小冊子). The first printing of this 32-page black and white booklet sold out within a week. Here is something that I have learned through my experience.
1.Start small.
Don’t try to have a 400-page work as your first publication. I suggest you publish a booklet under 50 pages to launch your career as an author.
2.Ask for advice.
If you know some people who have published something, ask them for advice and help. You will gain useful information from them and save yourself many problems.
3.           
When you put your heart into something only to hear“We’re not interested”,you may get hurt. But you must remind yourself that this is quite common. Every“yes”you receive comes after at least five“noes”,especially at the beginning. You need to revise your book many times to reduce the chances of being turned down.
4.The more you market, the more you sell.
You can publish an excellent book. But if no people know about it, you cannot expect many buyers. Send out an e-mail to friends, family and business partners, telling them your book’s publication date. Ask them to help sell your book.
Do not be afraid to try novel ideas.
小題1:What does the underlined word“l(fā)aunch”in Point 1 there mean?
A．Begin.B．Develop.C．Lead.D．Describe.
小題2:What’s the best title for Point 3?
A．No one will like what you wrote at first.
B．You will get hurt by what you wrote at first.
C．Prepare for a“yes”rather than a“no”.
D．Be prepared to deal with“noes”.
小題3:According to the passage, if you want to have more copies of your book sold, you should      .
A．advertise your book in newspapers
B．try to make more people know your book
C．ask your business partners to buy your book
D．write something that people are interested in
小題4:About self-publishing a book, the writer would most probably agree that       .
A．one usually makes no money out of self-publishing a book
B．one should never self-publish a book longer than 400
C．self-publishing a book is impossible for most people
D．asking advice from people who have published a book is helpful
