Emma Morano, the oldest living person, celebrated her 117th birthday on Tuesday. Friends, neighbors and her doctor joined Morano in her small apartment home in the northern Italian mountain town of Verbania.

She blew out three candles on her Birthday cake. Each candle represented a number in her age. She received a greeting from Italy's president, Sergio Mattarella. He wished her peace and continued good health.

Emma Morano is thought to be the last living person born in the 1800s. She outlived all her brothers and sisters, including one who died at age 102. Her doctor noted that when Morano was young, people used to say she was weak and often sick. While she is lucky to have lived so long, parts of her life were “not so nice”. She worked in a factory until she retired at age 65.

The first man Morano planned to many died in World War One. Then, at age 26, she married another man. She had a son, hut died after the birth, which was a great shock to her. However, she thought she didn't lose everything. She looked after herself well and was involved in different social activities.

We all know employees talk, and things can never remain totally secret. But a direct discussion about salary details probably isn't the best idea.

There are organizations that openly share salary information around the office. However, unless all similar jobs pay the same rate, people advise that open salary concepts do not work well.

When companies have different employees on the same job and one of them is paid differently, many unfairness issues surface. It can happen in any company that differentiates (区分)pay for any reason like seniority and performance. You should run the risk of causing a distance between you and your colleagues if they learn you earn more for what they think to be the same job.

The secret nature of your salary, in fact, can be a greater benefit to you. It creates an opportunity for a manager to have a personal discussion with employees as to why they are being paid what they are and how they can then move forward with confidence that they have developed a “special" relationship with their supervisor ( 主管 )on their individual issues, good and bad, without involving others in the process.

If you learn that someone who holds a similar position earns a bigger paycheck, don't panic. First, do some due diligence to determine if you are being underpaid in general. Use the Internet salary calculator, and also reach out to your out — of — office network to find out how people at other companies are being compensated. Next, you'd better go to your boss and ask the reasons. Open a rational dialog to understand what skills or experience you'll need to improve your performance and earn more recognition and financial rewards.

28. What could happen if your colleagues learned that you are paid more?

A. They might become less friendly to you.   B. Your salary might be reduced soon.

C. They might badly perform in their work.   D. You might be given extra jobs.

29. What is the advantage of keeping salary information secret?

A. It inspires you to make greater progress in your work.

B. It warns you to work harder to make more money.

C. It gives the manager a chance to communicate with you.

D. It proves the manager treats all his employees equally.

30. What is the purpose of the last paragraph?

A. To tell about how to get along with the boss.  B. To show how to keep silent about the problem.

C. To urge employees to argue with the boss.  D. To suggest ways to deal with the problem.

31. What is the text mainly about?

A. Personal relationship.       B. Salary secret.

C. Colleague pressure.       D. Salary difference.

D

Com has been a significant part in American food since before European arrival. After the Civil War, grits （粗玉米粉）,which are made out of com, became a diet mainstay （支柱）because water-powered mills turned up. They were relatively inexpensive and could be eaten with almost anything, making it possible for everyone to enjoy.

Grits are usually cooked with water, cream and butter over the course of many hours. There can be varied types of grits from smooth to grainy. There are even instant grits for those without the hours to cook. Worth noting is that sugar is not typically added.

Grits can be served for breakfast, lunch and dinner, but they're commonly used as a base, usually topped with seafood and a delicious sauce. It's a dish eaten by everyone from sitting presidents to blue-collar workers in a variety of ways, both in fine dining restaurants and oily spoons.

Shrimp and grits is the most well-known dish incorporating grits, especially in coastal areas like Charleston, South Carolina. It was originally a fisherman's breakfast, a hearty meal before a long day of work, and today, it's found on menus throughout the nation.

Chefs have also become creative with the dish, adding modem elements to the traditional. Mashama Bailey has a foie gras （ 鹅肝酱 ）and grits dish at The Grey in Savannah, Georgia. Edward Lee has prepared it like the porridge his Korean parents cooked during his growing up, but uses Kentucky's Wiesenberger grits. Nathalie Dupree has made her career on the dish with her cookbook titled “Shrimp and Grits” , while Virginia Willis has appropriately titled “Grits”.

32. Why did grits become main food?

A. Com played a key role.      B. Dried com was extremely cheap.

C. The Civil War broke out.      D. Water-powered mills showed up.

33. What can we learn about grits from Paragraph 3?

A. They are popular among all walks of life.   B. They are smooth to feel.

C. They are placed on top of other foods.   D. They are expensive to purchase.

34. What breakfast did South Carolina fisherman like?

A. Grits with Shrimp.   B. Grits with sugar.   C. Grits with butter.   D. Grits with cream.

35. Why does the author mention Lee's parents?

A. To introduce Lee's upbringing experiences.  B. To promote Lee's cooking techniques.

C. To explain a modem flavor of grits.    D. To advertise a newly-published cookbook.

How to Grow Organic Tomatoes in a Container

Anyone who has seen tomatoes growing in a garden knows that they tend to be huge plants, 36   So the first thing to do when considering growing tomatoes in a pot is to find a suitable variety.

After you find the perfect plant, it is time to plant it. In general, plastic or fiberglass pots are best for growing tomatoes. They don't dry out quickly. While tomatoes love heat, they don't like being dry. 37   Besides, tomatoes need to grow in a reasonably large pot. A pot must be 8 inches deep. That's the absolute minimum. A 12-or 16-inch pot is even better.

38   Don't use soil dug directly from the garden. It is too heavy for container gardens. Compost （ 混 合的）based soil, whether purchased or mixed from your special recipe, is nice. When planting the tomato, put some soil in the bottom of the pot and set the plant in. After you have the plant set at the proper level, fill in around it with soil. The soil should go up to about an inch below the rim （ 边缘 ） of the pot to allow room for watering. 39  The best way to tell when to water is to stick your finger into the soil-if the first two inches are dry, it's time to water.

The trickiest thing about growing tomatoes in a pot is that they are heavy feeders. Every time you water, you wash nutrients out of the soil. So fertilize （施肥）regularly. Once a month is good. But every other week, applying the fertilizer at half-strength is letter. 40    

A. That's why clay pots are popular.

B. Instead, use whatever soil you can get.

C. And dry soil can reduce fruit production.

D. This provides constant nutrients for the tomato plants.

E. They require people's much work to stay manageable.

F. Tomatoes don't like being dry, so water them regularly.

G. Any good quality organic potting soil works for tomatoes.
