A famous foreign company that invested in China want to employ a reception secretary for is public relation department.
A beautiful girl with a master degree in electric engineering became a winning candidate through the difficult process of employment. At its last stage she faced an oral test together with another girl who was her equal not only in good looks but also in education standard.
The girl we talk about was confident in herself and successful in the oral test. It seemed she would get the chance. The examiner told her on behalf of the company next Monday as a new employee. At last he asked her,“Have you anything else to say ?” Shocked by the unexpected question, the beautiful girl was quite at a loss, saying with hesitation,“I have to talk with my parents before I give an answer.” Surprised, the examiner said calmly, “In that case, let’s wait till you are ready.”
The next day the girl came to tell that her parents agreed to her beginning work next Monday. But the examiner said regretfully, “Sorry, the job position is filled by another suitable candidate. You had better have a try in another place.” The beautiful girl was surprised. She asked for an explanation and was told, “What is needed here is a person who knows her own mind.”

Have you ever suddenly felt that someone you know was in trouble-----and he was ?Have you ever dreamed something that came true later ? Maybe you have ESP(超超感官知觉).
ESP stands for Extra Sensory Perception. It may be called a sixth sense. It seems to let people know about events before they happen, or events that are happening some distance away.
Here is an example：A woman was doing washing. Suddenly she screamed. “My father is dead! I saw him sitting in the chair !” Just then, a telegram came. The woman’s father had died of a heart attack.. He died sitting in a chair.
There are thousands of stories like this on record. Scientists are studying them to find out what is behind these strange mental messages.
Here’s another example----one of hundreds of dreams that have come true. A man dreamed he was walking along a road when a horse and carriage came by. The driver said, “There’s room for one more.” The man felt the driver was dead, so he ran away. The next day the man was getting on a crowded bus . The bus driver said, “There’s room for one more.” Then the man saw the driver’s face was the same face he had seen in the dream. He wouldn’t get on the bus. As the bus drove off, it crashed and burst into flames. Everyone was killed!
Some people say stories like these are lies or coincidences. Others, including some scientists say that ESP is true. From studies of ESP, we may some day learn more about the human mind. 60. ESP lets people know about______.
A. their dreams
B. events after they happen C. events before they happen D. heart attacks
61. The example of the man shows an ability to __________.
A. avoid traffic accidents
B. judge the good and evil of a person
C. know about the events that are happening some distance away D. sense a danger that will actually happen later on
62. In this passage the word “coincidences” probably means __________.
A. things which do not happen
B. things which happen by accident without necessary connection C. things which are only dreams
D. things dreamed of only by sick people
63. From the passage, it can be inferred that _________.
A. all people have ESP
B. some women or men have ESP C. children have ESP D. no people have ESP

Letter to Editor of TV Weekly
Dear Sir/Madam,
I read Alison Burnham’s review of When we were 12, and I do not agree with her . I thought the programmer was wonderful----I found the old news pictures really interesting----they helped to bring to life the stories the people were telling.
The programme reminds me of many things from my own childhood . For example, one day when I was about five , I was going to school on the bus by myself (this was the late 1960s).My mother had given me exactly the right money for a return ticket . I held out my hand with the money in it----one big coin on top of one little coin . The bus conductor took the big top coin only and she gave me a ticket , but it was a pink one for a single journey . I needed a white one for a return journey , but I was too frightened to say anything . When school finished for the day ,I couldn’t catch the bus home----I had to walk . As a grown-up ,
Whenever I’ve been in a situation where I need to say something or take some action ,this early memory of my bus ride comes back to me , and I’m able to take control of the situation.
I would like to say to the director , Bret Chrysler, carry on making this kind of programme. Too much TV these days is quiz shows and so-called “reality programmes”. I appreciate the human story that can make me laugh and cry .
Yours faithfully, Chris Daniels
69. What is Chris Daniels’ purpose of writing this letter ?

71. According to the passage, Chris Daniels had to walk home because ___________.
A. he hadn’t got a return ticket B. he had lost his bus ticket C. he didn’t like big crowds D. he missed the bus home

F A Story Saved a Baby
第 9 页共 12 页（高三英语）
In 1997, a dead detective stories author saved the life of a 11-month-old baby in a most unusual way . The author was Gather Christie, a gentle married lady and one of the most unusual writers of detective stories in the world.
In June 1977, a baby girl became seriously ill in Qatar, near Saudi Arabia. Doctors were unable to decide the cause of her illness with confidence, so she was flown to London and admitted to Hammersmith Hospital,where specialist help was available. She was then only semiconscious (half awaken) and on the “Dangerously Ill” list. A team of doctors hurried to examine the baby only to discover that they, too, were puzzled by the very unusual symptoms(症状).While they were discussing the baby’s case, a nurse asked to speak to them.
“Excuse me,” said Nurse Marsha Maitland.“But I think the baby is suffering from thallium poisoning.”
“What makes you think that?” Dr Brown asked.“Thallium poisoning is extremely rare.” “A few days ago, I was reading a novel called A pale Horse by Gather Christie,” Nurse Maitland explained. “ In the book, somebody uses thallium poison, and all the symptoms are described. They’re exactly the same as the same as the baby’s.”
“You’re very observant and you may be right,” another doctor said. “We’ll carry out some tests and find out whether it’s thallium or not.”
The tests showed that the baby had indeed been posoned by thallium, a rare metallic substance used in making optical glass . Once they knew the cause of illness, the doctors were able to give the baby the correct treatment,she soon recovered and was sent back to Qatar. Enquiries made people know that the poison might have come from an insecticide(杀虫剂)used in Qatar.
77. Who first suggested the correct cause of the baby’s illness?
A. A doctor in Qatar. B. Dr Brown. C. Nurse Maitland. D. Gather Christie.
78. Why was the baby sent to London?
A. Because she was a British girl whose parents were working in Qatar. B. Because the hospitals in Qatar wer full at that time.
C. Because she was the daughter of a doctor in one of the hospitals in London. D. Because the Qatar doctors were not sure they could cure her. 79. According to the passage, what caused the baby’s illness? A. Contact with a pair of infected spectacles.
B. Contact with a harmful substance used to kill insects. C. Contact with machinery used in making optical glasses.
D. Contact with her mother who carried thallium germs in her boby.
80. When the baby was first admitted to hospital in the UK, what did the doctors think of her case? A. They thought it was a case needing immediate immediate treatment. B. They thought it was a usual one.
C. They thought it was quite a simple one.
D. They thought it was the result of thallium poisoning .
