The days of stopping at one store and buying everything in one location are long gone. We've put together a list of items you shouldn't buy at the grocery store and we show you where to get them.
Tuna
Essentially a product from Chicken of the Sea, 5 ounce cans of Van Camp's Chunk White Albacore Tuna in Water are available for $1 per can at Dollar Tree. A similar product in the grocery store costs 59 cents more per can.
Olive Oil
Is it really worth buying expensive olive oil？We don't think so. This 68 ounce Iberia Premium Blend Extra Virgin Olive Oil sells at Target for $9.69. Reviewers love this less expensive alternative saying it's great for pare it with a standard 17 ounce size of Bertolli Extra Virgin Olive Oil—much less oil, selling for roughly the same $9.99 when it's not on sale.
Vitamins
You might not realize the money you can reap on vitamins simply by buying them at a different store. A 100 count bottle of vitamin D softgels can run to $11.29 at Walmart. A 180 count bottle of Trader Joe's vitamin D 1，000 iu softgels is only $11.99. That's almost double the amount.
Storage Containers
For storing food, children's supplies, or whatever your household needs may be, there's nothing better than plastic storage containers. But why pay through the nose for them？Albertsons has two half cup Rubbermaid Easy Find Lids food storage containers at $6.89. But you can buy six of those from Target for $7.99—four more for about a dollar.
Socks
Dollar Tree has a good selection of men's, women's, and children's socks. Women's mini crew socks come in a three count pack for $1. A three count of similar socks at Albertson's will cost $6.59 and there are not many kinds.
(　　) 1. How much does a can of similar Tuna in the grocery store probably cost
A. $0.95. B. $1. C. $1.59. D. $0.41.
(　　) 2. You can get a better deal on ________ at Trader Joe's.
A. vitamins B. olive oil C. storage containers D. socks
(　　) 3. Who might be the target readers of the passage
A. Reviewers. B. Housewives.
C. Store owners. D. Health experts.

Gabriela worked for a multinational company as a successful project manager in Brazil. Later she was transferred to manage a team in Sweden. She was excited about her new role but soon realized that managing her new team would be a challenge.
Despite their friendliness, Gabriela didn't feel respected as a leader. Her new staff would question her proposals openly in meetings, and when she gave them instructions on how to carry out a task, they would often go about it in their own way without checking with her. When she announced her decisions on the project, they would continue giving their opinions as if it was still up for discussion.
What Gabriela was experiencing was a culture shock in expectations. Dutch psychologist Geert Hofstede uses the concept of “power distance” to describe how power is distributed(分布) in different cultures. In her previous work environment, Gabriela was used to a high power distance culture where power is respected. In such a culture, leaders make the big decisions and are not often challenged. Her Swedish team, however, were used to working in a low power distance culture where employees often work together with their bosses to find solutions and make decisions. Here, leaders act as coaches who encourage independent thought and expect to be challenged.
When Gabriela became aware of the cultural differences between her and her team, she had an open conversation with them about their feelings about her leadership.
Pleased to be asked for their thoughts, Gabriela's team openly expressed that they were not used to being told what to do. They enjoyed having more room for initiative and creative freedom. When she told her team exactly what she needed them to do, they felt that she didn't trust them to do their job well.
With a better understanding of the underlying reasons behind each other's behaviour, Gabriela was able to make adjustments to her management style. Finally, she effectively motivated her team to achieve their goals.
(　　) 4. What problem did Gabriela have with her Swedish team at the beginning
A. Her authority was challenged by her Swedish staff.
B. They were always refusing to follow her directions.
C. Her Swedish staff didn't understand her instructions.
D. They looked down upon her because she was a female.
(　　) 5. What is encouraged in the working culture in Sweden
A. Independent thinking and mild character.
B. Active participation and creative thinking.
C. Professional spirit and risk taking behaviour.
D. Competitive spirit and mild character.
(　　) 6. Which of the following can best describe Gabriela
A. Bossy and rude. B. Strict but trustworthy.
C. Kind but stubborn. D. Flexible and communicative.
(　　) 7. What can we learn from Gabriela's story
A. Two heads are better than one. B. Don't judge a book by its cover.
C. Birds of a feather flock together. D. When in Rome, do as Romans do.
Ⅳ. 语法填空。

A
1. C　细节理解题。根据Tuna部分“Essentially a product from Chicken of the Sea, 5 ounce cans of Van Camp's Chunk White Albacore Tuna in Water are available for $1 per can at Dollar Tree. A similar product in the grocery store costs 59 cents more per can.”可知，5盎司罐装的Van Camp的大块白色长鳍金枪鱼在Dollar Tree的售价为1美元/罐，杂货店的类似产品每罐贵59美分。由此可推知，杂货店买一罐类似的金枪鱼大概要$1.59(1美元＋59美分)。故选C。
2. A　细节理解题。根据Vitamins部分中“A 180 count bottle of Trader Joe's vitamin D 1，000 iu softgels is only $11.99. That's almost double the amount.”可知，人们可以在Trader Joe's买到更便宜的维生素。故选A。
3. B　推理判断题。根据第一段“The days of stopping at one store and buying everything in one location are long gone. We've put together a list of items you shouldn't buy at the grocery store and we show you where to get them.”并结合下文介绍的商品可知，推荐的都是些家庭日常用品、食物。由此可推知，本文针对的读者是家庭主妇。故选B。
B
4. A　细节理解题。根据第二段“Despite their friendliness, Gabriela didn't feel respected as a leader. Her new staff would question her proposals openly in meetings, and when she gave them instructions on how to carry out a task, they would often go about it in their own way without checking with her.”可知，尽管新员工很友好，但加芙列拉作为领导并没有受到尊重。她的新员工会在会议上公开质疑她的提议，当她指示他们如何执行任务时，他们通常会按照自己的方式执行，而不与她核对。由此可推知，在瑞典，一开始加芙列拉的权威受到了瑞典员工的挑战。故选A。
5. B　细节理解题。根据第三段中“Her Swedish team, however, were used to working in a low power distance culture where employees often work together with their bosses to find solutions and make decisions. Here, leaders act as coaches who encourage independent thought and expect to be challenged.”可知，她的瑞典团队习惯了在低权力距离文化中工作，员工经常与他们的老板一起工作，寻找解决方案并做出决定。在这里，领导者扮演教练的角色，鼓励独立思考，并期待挑战。由此可推知，瑞典的工作文化鼓励独立思考和创造性思维，并鼓励积极参与。故选B。
6. D　推理判断题。根据第四段“When Gabriela became aware of the cultural differences between her and her team, she had an open conversation with them about their feelings about her leadership.”可知，当加芙列拉意识到她与团队之间的文化差异时，她和员工开诚布公地交谈员工们对她的领导力的感受。由此可推知，加芙列拉有很强的沟通交流能力。根据第六段中“Gabriela was able to make adjustments to her management style”可知，了解到原因之后，加芙列拉能够调整自己的管理方式，这说明她能根据具体情况，灵活调整自己的工作方式。由此可推知，加芙列拉是一个灵活的、善于沟通的管理者。故选D。
7. D　推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章讲述了加芙列拉被派到瑞典管理一个新的团队，经历了高低权力距离文化的冲击后，能够根据当地的文化调整自己的管理方式。结合最后一段中“With a better understanding of the underlying reasons behind each other's behaviour, Gabriela was able to make adjustments to her management style.”可知，加芙列拉对双方行为背后的原因有了更好的了解后，能够调整自己的管理方式。因此，从加芙列拉的故事中，我们体会到了“When in Rome, do as Romans do.(入乡随俗。)”。故选D。
Ⅳ. 1. destructive　2. grew　3. which/that
4. reaction　5. to clear　6. would keep
7. because/as/for　8. a　9. anxiously
10. millions
1. destructive　考查形容词。句意：2005年8月下旬，卡特里娜飓风袭击了美国东南部地区，这是美国历史上破坏性最强的飓风之一。分析句子结构可知，空处应用形容词作定语，the most destructive意为“最具破坏性的”。故填destructive。
2. grew　考查时态。句意：但它很快就成了墨西哥湾温暖水域上的5级飓风，沿途造成严重破坏。空处是谓语，且句子描述过去发生的事，需用一般过去时。故填grew。
3. which/that　考查定语从句。句意：新奥尔良是一座主要建在海平面以下的城市，受到的打击最为严重。分析句子结构可知，“________ was built largely below sea level”是限制性定语从句，先行词是物(a city)，定语从句缺主语，应该填关系代词which或that。故填which/that。
4. reaction　考查名词。句意：为应对即将到来的飓风，市政府下令疏散该市所有居民。in reaction to为固定搭配，意为“对……的反应，以应对……”。故填reaction。
5. to clear　考查非谓语动词。句意见上题解析。give an order to do sth是固定搭配，意为“下令做某事”。故填to clear。
6. would keep　考查时态。句意：他们中的一些人选择留下来，因为他们相信城市的防御系统会保证他们的安全，而另一些人因为没有交通工具，只能留下。believed为过去时，空处表达的是将来的动作，故应用过去将来时。故填would keep。
7. because/as/for　考查连词。句意见上题解析。分析句意可知，此处存在因果关系。故填because/as/for。
8. a　考查冠词。句意：结果，80%的城市被洪水淹没了数周。as a result是固定短语，意为“因此”。故填a。
9. anxiously　考查副词。句意：人们被困在城市里，没有电、食物或饮用水，焦急地等待救援。分析句子结构可知，修饰动词应用副词。故填anxiously。
10. millions　考查数词。句意：卡特里娜飓风总共造成近2 000人死亡，数百万人无家可归。millions of是固定短语，意为“数百万的，大量的”。故填millions。
Ⅴ. 略
