Passage 1
If you are going to be a straight talker, you have to believe that it's a virtue, that it's an quality you want to have.

Just say,'I am a senior businessperson and need help dressing formally. She came back, and she was completel a different person. She said she felt really good. And currency went way up.
Early in my business career, if people asked me a question, I'd try to answer it honestly. And
that was rewarded. I had managers who wanted me around because I would actually tell them what was happening.

Passage 2
A punctual person is in the habit of doing a thing at the proper time and is never late in keeping an appointment.
The unpunctual man, on the contrary, never does what he has to do at the proper time. He is always in a hurry and in the end loses both time and his good name. A lost thing may be found again, but the lost time can never be regained. Time is more valuable than material things. In fact, time is life itself, The unpunctual man is forever wasting and mismanaging his most valuable asset (财产) as well as other's. The unpunctual person is always complaining that he finds no time to answer letters, return calls or keep appointments promptly. But the man who really has a great deal to do is very careful of his time and seldom complains of want of it. He knows that he can not get through his huge amount of work unless he faithfully keeps every piece of work when it has to be attended to.
Failure to be punctual in keeping one's appointments is the sign of disrespect towards others. If a person is invited to dinner and arrives later than the appointed time, he keeps all the other guests waiting for him. Usually this will be regarded as a great disrespect to the host and all other guests present.
Unpunctuality, moreover, is very harmful when it comes to do one's duty, whether public or private. Imagine how it would be if those who are put in charge of important tasks failed to be at their proper place at the appointed time. A man who is known to be habitually unpunctual is never trusted hy his friends or fellow men.

Passage 3
Once upon a time, two brothers, Jack and Tom, who lived on neighboring farms, fell into conflict. For the past 20 years, they had been on good terms farming side by side, sharing machinery, and trading labor and goods as needed. The dispute began with a small misunderstanding and grew into a major difference, and finally exploded into an exchange of bitter words followed by weeks of silence.
One morning there was a knock on Jacks door. It was a carpenter looking for a few days' work, Jack offered him a job saying,"Look across the stream at that farm. That's my neighbor; in fact, it's my younger brother. There used to be a meadow between us. Last week he pulled down the dam on the small river and now there is a stream instead. Well, he may have done this to offend me, but I'll do him one better.”
“See that pile of lumber (木材) by the house? I want you to build me a fence—an 8-foot fence.” The carpenter said, “I think I understood the situation. Show me the nails and the post-hole digger(打桩机) and I'll be able to do a job that pleases you.”
Jack had to go into town, so he helped the carpenter get the materials ready and then he was off for the day. The carpenter worked hard all that day measuring, sawing and nailing. About sunset when Jack returned, the carpenter had just finished his job
Jack's eyes opened wide, his jaw dropped. There was no fence there at all. It was a bridge—a bridge stretching from one side of the stream to the other! A fine piece of work! His younger brother was coming toward them with hands outstretched. "You are quite a fellow to build this bridge after all I've said and done. The two brothers stood at each end of the bridge and then they met in the middle, taking each other's hand.
They turned to see the carpenter lift his toolbox onto his shoulder. “No, wait! Stay a few days. I have a lot of other projects for you,” said Jack. “I'd love to stay on,” the carpenter said, “but I have many more bridges lo build.”

Passage 4
Batteries can power anything from small sensors to large systems. While scientists are finding ways to make them smaller but even more powerful, problems can arise when these batteries are much larger and heavier than the devices themselves. The researchers at University of Missouri (MU) are developing a nuclear energy source that is smaller, lighter and more efficient.
“To provide enough power, we need certain methods with high energy density (密度), "said Jae Kwon, assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering at MU, "The radioisotope(放射性同位素) battery can provide power density that is much higher than chemical batteries.”
Kwon and his research team have been working on building a small nuclear battery, presently the size and thickness of a penny, intended to power various systems. Although nuclear batteries can cause concens, Kwon said they are safe.
“People hear the word‘nuclear’and think of something very dangerous,” he said, “However, muclear power sources have already been safely powering a variety of devices, such as pace-makers, space satellites and underwater systems.”
His new idea is not only in the battery's size, but also in its semiconductor. Kwon's battery uses a liquid semiconductor rather than a solid semiconductor.
“The key part of using a radioactive battery is that when you harvest the energy, part of the radiation energy can damage the lattice structure (晶体结构) of the solid semiconductor,” Kwon said,By using a liquid semiconductor, we believe we can minimize that problem.”
Together with J. David Robertson, chemistry professor and associate director of the MU Research Reactor, Kwon is working to build and test the battery. In the future, they hope to increase the battery's power, shrink its size and try with various other materials. Kwon said that battery could be thinner than the thickness of human hair.
46. The passage gets started by .
A. an introduction
B. an example
C. a question
D. a conclusion

A. He is teaching chemistry at MU
B. He developed a chemical battery

A. The writer introduces methods of providing power density
B. The writer intends to describe a nuclear-powered system
C. The writer introduces nuclear batteries can be safely used
D. The writer is likely to show chemical batteries are widely applied
49. Liquid semiconductor is used to
A. control the lattice structure
B. show the power of nuclear batteries
C.decrease the size of nuclear batteries
D. reduce the damage to lattice structure
50. The passage is most probably from a
