22、vorite.Beer Crate-RunningThis is a traditional game that is extremely popular in Germany, Switzerland, and Austria, more popularly referred to as Kastenlauf.

28、hough this game seems simple, it is a lot of fun. It runs on the lines of Who stole the cookie. A person is chosen asHerman the German ( HTG ) and he has to get the game running.

CRemoving the sleeve (封套), you will find a book that is entirely white,except for the names of its author and subject in elegant black type on the cover. It is the perfect des
34、ign for the biography of a man who insisted that even the insides of his products be perfectly constructed, and that his factory walls flash in the whitest white.The cover was the only part of the book Steve Jobs wanted to control,writes Isaacson in his introduction.Though Mr. Jobs pushed the biogra
35、pher of Albert Einstein and Benjamin Franklin to write in his own way, generously allowing the writer more than 40 interviews, this book offers quite a different view of Mr. Jobs, who won much praise from his fans after his death on October 5th at the age of 56.As a biographer of Albert Einstein and
36、 Benjamin Franklin, Mr. Isaacson knows how to celebrate longdead genius, but he claimed that Steve Jobs would not be entirely praiseful words.The picture he paints, particularly in the first half of this book, is not nice.

38、he people he is close to”, observes Andy Hertzfeld, an early Apple engineer.Mr. Jobs was undoubtedly possessing an extraordinary ability to attract others and inspire a kind of faith that could not be questioned.

39、amed him.“This is who I am,” he once said after being challenged,“and you cant expect me to be someone Im not.” This disgusting personality wasnt always helpful, but it served a purpose, writes Mr. Isaacson, many would “end their chain of horror stories by saying that he got them to do things they n
40、ever dreamed possible”Mr. Isaacson treats Steve Jobs as the biography of record,which means that it is a strange book to read so soon after its subjects death.29.The biography for Jobs is believed to have the perfect design because_.A. it follows Jobs styleB. its cover is entirely whiteC. black and
41、white are his favoriteD. it is designed by a famous biographer30. The picture of Jobs that Isaacson paints in his book is_.cruel humorous particular generousA. B. C. D. 31.

42、care about the design of the book D. all descriptions of Jobs are not nice in the book32.This passage can be classified as_.A. a personal diary B. a book review C. a news report D. a TV interviewDDecreasing grain prices along with growing costs of production means Chinese farmers are unlikely to see
43、 a significant rise in income next year. Chinas economic planning chief Ma Kai expressed the concern as the government undertakes an ambitious program to improve rural peoples lives.Grain prices have been dropping since April; and prices of wheat, corn and rice fell 5 per cent from August to October
44、 compared with the same period last year, Ma, minister of the National Development and Reform Commission, told an annual meeting on development and reform held over the weekend. Meanwhile, prices of production materials rose 9.1 per cent year on year during the first 10 months. The situation makes i
45、t difficult to achieve a “new socialist countryside,” which was last week highlighted（引起注意）as a new concept and “common action” of the whole Party and nation.Vice-Minister of Agriculture Yin Chengjie also said Chinas entry to the World Trade Organization also creates hurdles for income rises for the

Last year, per capita net income（个人平均纯收入）of Chinese farmers reached 2,936 yuan (US$362), up 6.8 per cent year on year, and th
47、e highest increase since 1997. Ma also said China would continue to seek fast, steady economic growth in 2012 but more efforts will be made to deal with the challenges brought about by overheating in some industrial sectors (区域).(from China Daily, December 5, 2011)33.The writer thinks it difficult to achieve a “new socialist countryside” because _.来源:学.科.网ZA. grain prices decrease and production costs growB. “new socialist countryside” is a new conceptC. prices of production materials rose 9.1 percentD. many farmers a
