1，完型 My first performance in front of an audience was coming up soon. I tried as hard as I could to remain 36, but I had an empty feeling in my stomach. I stared down at my sweat covered, 37 hands. I looked up again at the audience, realizing that these were 38 people. They were not just my mum and dad, who 39 say, Good job! even if I messed up the entire piece. What if I had the wrong music? What if I played the wrong notes? As it 40, I was never able to answer these questions because the spotlight was 41 for me. I grasped my hands tightly together, drying off the sweat. Slowly I walked to the mulberry piano in the 42 of the room. It contained 88 demanding keys, which were waiting impatiently to be played．I swallowed the golfball-sized lump（隆起的） in my throat and sat down. 43, I opened the music．Next, I rested my still shaking hands on the ivory keys. As my fingers played across the keys, I was becoming more 44 of my preparation for this moment. But the memory of my year of training came flooding back. I knew that I had practiced this piece 45 that I could play it backwards if 46 . Although at one point I accidentally played two keys 47 the intended one, I continued to move my fingers automatically （自动的）. YCY My eyes burned holes into the page in front of me. There was no 48 that I was going to lose my concentration. To keep this promise to myself, I leaned 49 and focused carefully on the music． 50 1 came to the end of the page, a warning 51 inside my head: DON' T MAKE A MISTAKE WHEN YOU TURN THE PAGE!
Needless to say, I 52 myself with all my heart and mind．And, proud of my page- turning feat（技艺） I finished the 53 of the piece without making a single mistake.

2，阅读： You get all sorts of demands, and the mark of a good hotel is to supply whatever is asked for without sounding surprised. If a guest asks for rubbers gloves, you don’t ask why. You say, “No problem. What color do you want?” There have been some demands which, much as I would have liked to fill, I couldn’t. A Japanese businessman, for example, thought the manager of a hotel was like his girl friend so he asked me to marry him to the woman he loved. There was one time, however, we did help out. A young man thought that if he asked his girlfriend to marry him at the Ritz (一家以豪华著称的瑞士大旅馆) she would say yes. He asked us to put the ring in a cake, and she accepted. Top hotels are used more and more to impress. They are used for doing business. If you’ve got something to sell, take your clients (客户) to the best hotel where the surroundings are quite helpful. A friend of mine working at Savoy Hotel tells the story about a man who gave him 5 pounds to say “Good morning, Mr. Smith” when he walked through the door with two other men. This he did, and could hear Mr. Smith saying, “I do wish they would leave me alone at this place.” According to Julian Payne, the most powerful people in any hotel are the porters, who carry bags for hotel guests. “Porters can do almost anything. They can get you tables at the best restaurants or tickets for a popular concert. Don’t ask me how they do it or what their deal is because I don’t know. Most of them have been there for years. They know more about the history of the hotel and the guests than anyone else. They are invaluable. A head porter will come in even on his day off so he can say hello to someone he remembers visiting the hotel years ago.” 64. When guests ask for something strange, the manager of a good hotel would think ______. A. how he can meet their needs B. why they have such demands C. what problems the hotels has D. who is the best person to go to 65. Why are the porters considered the most powerful people&n
