Here are some general rules:Napkin(餐巾)useThe meal begins when the host unfolds his or her napkin. This is your signal to do the same, so place your napkin on your lap. Unfold it completely if it is a small napkin, or in half, lengthwise(纵向地),if it is a large dinner napkin.If you need to leave the table during the meal, place your napkin on your chair as a signal to your server that you will be returning. Once the meal is over, place your napkin neatly on the table to the right of your dinner plate. Do not refold it.Use a napkin only for your mouth. Never use it for your nose, face or forehead.Use of utensils(餐具)Start with the knife, fork or spoon furthest from your plate, and work your way in, using one utensil for each course.If soup is served, remember to spoon away from yourself. This helps stop the drips. Do not put the entire soup spoon in your mouth. Instead, fill a soup spoon about 75 percent with soup, and sip(啜饮)it from the side noiselessly.After finishing dinner, place the knife and fork parallel to one another across the plate with the knife facing inward toward the plate.Using your fingersHere's a list of finger foods: sandwiches, cookies, small fruits or berries with stems, French fries and potato chips, and hamburgers.Chew(咀嚼)with your mouth closed and don't make noise; don't talk with your mouth full.Bread must be broken with your hands.

If you are saving to buy a CD(光盘)or to go to a concert, then probably you would keep your money somewhere in your room.If you ale saving for a big purchase like a mountain bike or a school trip, where would you save your money?One place to save money is the bank. Putting your money in a savings account will help your money earn more money. If you put your money in a piggy bank(猪形储蓄罐), one year later you'11 still have the same amount of money you put in. If you put your money in a savings account, one year later, you'll have more money than you put in. Why?When you keep your money in a bank, your money earns interest. Interest is an amount of money a bank pays you to use your money. The bank uses your money (and the money of other people too) to loan money to people and businesses.The bank will send you a statement several times a year. A bank statement tells you how much money you have in your account It also tells you how much interest you have earned If you leave your money in the bank, you can watch it grow! Another way you can save money is to buy a certificate of deposit or CD. If you have somemoney that you don't need to use for a long time, this is a good way to make your money grow. You Can buy a CD at a bank You agree not to use the money for a certain period of time That period might be from six months to five years. You can't touch your money during that time. If you do, you must pay a penalty or fee.6. Your money will earn more money if you put it _______.A. in your roomB. in a piggy bankC. in your pocketD. in a savings account7. A bank pays you interest for _______.A wasting your moneyB losing your moneyC using your moneyD decreasing your money8. Among other things, a bank statement tells you _______.A. the amount of money you have in the bankB. the current rates of interestC. the current rates of exchangeD. the best way to save your money9. If you draw your money before it is due, you will have to _______.A. pay interest to the bankB. close your accountC. open a new accountD. pay a penalty or fee10. The word “touch" in paragraph 5 could be best replaced by _______.A. “deposit”B. “lend”C. “use”D. “cash”Can trees talk? Yes, but not in words. Scientists have reason to believe that treesdo communicate (交际) with each other. Not long ago, researchers learned some surprising things. First a willow tree attacked in the woods by caterpillars (毛虫) changed the chemistry of its leaves and made them taste so terrible that they got tired of the leaves and stopped eating them. Then even more astonishing, the tree sent out a special smell---a signal (信号) causing its neighbors to change the chemistry of their own leaves and make them less tasty.Communication, of course, doesn’t need to be in wor ds. We can talk to each other by smiling, raising our shoulders and moving our hands. We know that birds and animals use a whole vocabulary of songs, sounds, and movements. Bees dance their signals, flying in certain patterns that tell other bees where to find nectar (花蜜) for honey. So why shouldn’t trees have ways of sending message?11. It can be concluded from the passage that caterpillars do not feed on leaves that ______.A. are lying on the groundB. have an unpleasant tasteC. bees don’t likeD. have an unfamiliar shape12. The willow tree described in the passage protected itself by ______.A. growing more branchesB. communicating with birds and beesC. changing its leaf chemistryD. shaking caterpillars off13. According to the passage, the willow tree was able to communicate with other trees by______.A. waving its branchesB. giving off a special smellC. dropping its leavesD. changing the color of its trunk14. According to this passage, bees communicate by ______.A. making special movementB. touching one anotherC. smelling one anotherD. making unusual sound15. The author believes that the incident described in the passage ______.A. cannot be taken seriouslyB. should no longer be permittedC. must be checked more thoroughlyD. seems completely reasonableSchooling and EducationIt is commonly believed in the United States that school is where people go to get an education. Nevertheless, it has been said that today children interrupt their education to go to school. The distinction between schooling and education implied by this remark is important.Education is much more open-ended and all-inclusive than schooling. Education knows no limits. It can take place anywhere, whether in the shower or in the job, whether in a kitchen or in a theatre. It includes both the formal learning that takes place in schools and the whole universe of informal learning. The agents of education can range from a respected grandparent to the people debating politics on the radio, from a child to a distinguished scientist. Whereas schooling has a certain predictability, education quite often produces surprises. A chance conversation with a stranger may lead a person to discover how little is known of other religions. People are engaged in education from infancy(婴儿期)on. Education, then, is a very broad, inclusive term. It is a lifelong(一生的)process, a process that starts long before the start of school, and one that should be an integral(基本的)part of one's entire life.Schooling, on the other hand, is a specific, formalized process, whose general pattern varies little from one setting to the next. Throughout a country, children arrive at school at approximately the same time, take assigned(指定的)seats, are taught by an adult, use similar textbooks, do homework, take exams, and so on. The slices of reality that are to be learned, whether they are words or an understanding of the working of government, have usually been limited by the boundaries of the subjectbeing taught. For example, high school students know that they are not likely to find out in their classes the truth about political problems in their communities or what the newest filmmakers are experimenting with. There are definite conditions surrounding the formalized process of schooling.16. Which of the following is true according to the author?A. School is the place where people get informal educationB. Education means schoolingC. Education can be both formal and informalD. Going to school is the only way to receive education17. Education is different from schooling in that ______.A. the former is predictable while the latter is notB. the former is specific while the latter is notC. the former is a formalized process while the latter is notD. the former is more open-ended and all-inclusive than the latter18. When does education begin?A. Before one enters schoolB. After one enters schoolC. After one graduates from collegeD. After one retires from work19. The fact that children arrive at school at about the same time shows that ______.A. schooling imposes a lot of strain on the studentsB. schooling has a clear boundaryC. schooling follows more or less the same pattern.D. schooling includes different aspects of learning20. What is the author's attitude toward schooling?A. PositiveB. NegativeC. Neutral(中立的)D. Supportive四.Translation—English to Chinese英译汉(5*3’)1.If producers can substitute a cheaper foreign source of labor relative to thedomestic wage rate, many will choose to move their production overseas, creating increased unemployment.如果生产者可以用廉价的外国劳动力来替代国内资源,很多生产者将会选择把他们的生产转移至海外,从而造成失业率的上升。

Why is a piece of paper marked $ 10 worth more than one marked $1 ? You could say there is no reason. Ifs true that a special kind of paper is used to make dollar bills, and they are pretty, but that^s not what makes them valuable・ The real reason money is valuable is that everyone believes it is.Ancient economies had no paper money or coins. Some used barter——trading one thing for anothe匚Others used all kinds of objects as money・Any object would do, as long as there was not an unlimited amount of it. Animals or metals were popular, and so were manufactured products like jewelry or weapons. Wealth in ancient Greece was measured in tools or cattle. This kind of money had two purposes- First, it was useful in itself. Tools and cattle can be used for farming. And second, it was a way to symbolize and measure value・ A house, for example, would be valued at a certain number of tools or cattle. This greatly simplified trade・ Other societies used money that was totally symbolic・For instance, American Indians used wampum, which is made from seashells. And until recently on the pacific island of Yap, people use large stone discs as money.In most places these types of money died out because more practical forms of money were invented. People started using precious metals, such as gold and silver, that were easier to carry around than tools or stones. And in the eighteenth century, paper money was introduced. At first people were suspicious of new currency, but they came to accept it because the government or bank issuing it would exchange an equal amount of gold for the pape匚 A $ 10 bill really was worth $ 10 for gold. But now, people are used to the idea that the government doesift have to back its money with gold・Everyone believes that a $ 10 bill is worth $10 and that is good enough・ But if, for some reason, people ever lost faith in paper money, ten dollars wouldn^t be worth the paper it's printed on.Questions 31-35 are based on passage 131.According to the writer the real reason money is valuable is that everyone believes _______ .a.money is valuableb. gold is valuablec. money is gold32.The writer of this selection mentioned animals, metals and manufactured productslike jewelry or weapons because ________ •a. they were valuableb・ they were used as money in ancient timesc. people liked them33.Paper money was invented ______ .a. to take the place of other types of moneyb・ to be replaced by other types of moneyc. in the nineteenth century34.At first people did not have trust in paper money because _____ •a.it was not worth muchb.the paper was not of good qualityc.it looked like an ordinary piece of paper35.People came to accept paper money when _______ .a.the government began to issue itb.the bank began to issue itc.they could exchange it for the same amount of goldPassage 2Many private institutions of higher education around the country are in danger. Not all will be saved, and perhaps not all deserve to be saved. There are low-quality schools just as there are low・quality businesses・ We have no obligation to save them simply because they exist. But many thriving institutions that deserve to continue are threatened・ They are doing a fine job educationally, but they are caught in a financial difficulty, with no way to reduce rising costs or increase revenues significantly. Raising tuition doesn^t bring in more revenue, for each time tuition goes up, the enrollment goes down, or the amount that must be given away in student aid goes up. Schools are bad businesses, whether public or private, not usually because of bad management but because of the nature of the enterprise. They lose money on every customer, and they can go bankrupt either from too few students or too many students. Even a very good college is a very bad business.It is such colleges, thriving but threatened, that I worry about. Low enrollment is not their chief problem. Even with full enrollments, they may go under. Efforts to save them, and preferably to keep them private, are a national necessity. There is no basis for arguing that private schools are bound to be better than public schools. There are abundant examples to the contrary. Anyone can name state universities and colleges that rank as the finest in the nation and the world. It is now inevitable that public institutions will be dominant, and therefore diversity is a national necessity. Diversity in the way we support schools tends to give us a healthy diversity in the forms of education. In an imperfect society such as ours, uniformity of education throughout the nation could be dangerous. In an imperfect society, diversity is a positive good. Eager supporters of public higher education know the importance of sustaining private higher education.Questions 36-40 are based on passage 236.In the passage, the author appeals to the public to support _____ .a. private higher education in general b・ public higher education in generalc. high-quality private universities and colleges37.According to the passage, schools are bad businesses because of _____ .a. the nature of schoolb・ poor teachersc. bad management38.What does the phrase "go under9' (Para. 2, sentence 3) probably mean?a.have low tuitionb.get into difficultiesc.do a bad job educationally39.Which of the following statements is TRUE?a.There are many cases to indicate that private schools are superior to publicschools.b.The author thinks diversity of education is preferable to uniformity of education.c.Each time tuition is raised, the enrollment goes up.40.In the author's opinion, the way that can save private schools lies in _____ .a.full enrollmentb.raising tuitionc.national supportPassage 3A higher reading rate, with no loss of comprehension, will help you in othersubjects as well as in English, and the general principles apply to any language. Naturally, you will not read every book at the same speed・ You would expect to read a newspaper, for example, much more rapidly than a physics or economics textbook 一but you can raise your average reading speed over the whole range of materials you wish to cover so that the percentage gained will be the same whatever kind ofreading you are concerned with.The reading passages which follow are all of an average level of difficulty for yourstage of instruction. They are all about five hundred words long. They are about topicsof general interest which do not require a great deal of specialized knowledge. Thusthey fall between the kind of reading you might find in your textbooks and the muchless demanding kind you will find in a newspaper or light novel. If you read this kind ofEnglish, with understanding at, say, four hundred words per minute, you might skim through a newspaper at perhaps 650一700, while with a difficult textbook you might drop to two hundred or two hundred and fifty.Perhaps you would like to know what reading speeds are common among nativeEnglish-speaking university students and how those speeds can be improved. Tests inMinnesota, U.S.A., for example, have shown that students without special training canread English of average difficulty, for example, Tolstoy^s War and Peace in translation,at speeds of between 240 and 250 words per minute with about seventy percentcomprehension. Students in Minnesota claim that after twelve half-hour lessons, the reading speed can be increased, with no loss of comprehension, to around five hundred words per minute.Questions 41-45 are based on passage 341.According to the passage, the purpose of effective reading with higher speed is most likely to help you ______ .a. only in your reading of a physics textbook・b・ improve your understanding of an economics textbook・c. not only in your language study but also in other subjects.42.Which of the following does not describe the types of reading materials mentioned in the second paragraph?a.Those beyond one's reading comprehension.b.Those concerning with common knowledge・c.Those without the demand for specialized knowledge.43.The average untrained native speaker at the University of Minnesota reads ata.about three hundred words per minute.b.about two hundred and forty-five words per minute.c.about sixty words per minute.44.According to the passage, how fast can you expect to read after you have attended twelve half-hour lessons in the University of Minnesota?a.You can increase your reading speed by three times.b.No real increase in reading speed can be achieved・c.You can double your reading speed.45.Where do you think the passage is taken from?a.The introduction to a book on fast reading.b.A local newspaper for young people.c.A school newspaper run by students・Passage 4Cultural WarsFilms made in the United Stated have continued to sweep the globe. According to the list of 1998,s most successful movies put together by Variety magazine, U.S. films took the top 39 places; Britain's The Full Monty came in at number 40. As aconsequence, British movie、market share fell to 14 percent of the home market, while the respective figures for French films were 27 percent in France and 10 percent for German films in Germany. The European Union、trade deficit with the United States in films and television is annually between $ 5 and $ 6 billion.Several of Hollywood's most successful movies have drawn from international resources. There men and a Baby was a remake of French comedy. Total Recall was made partly by French money, was directed by a Dutch man and starred an Austrian.The English Patient was directed by a Briton, shot in Italy, and starred French and British talent. The quest for new ideas and fresh talent has lead studios to develop subsidiaries in Europe: Sony's bridge in London, Miramax in Berlin, and Warner Brothers both in Berlin and Paris.Questions 46-50 are based on passage 446.American films have continued to the world.a. influenceb. winc. challenge47. British films share the 14 percent in its _____________ in 1998.a. home marketb. American marketc. European market48. German films have a ten percent share in ________a. France b- British c. German49. Three Men and a Baby was a remake of French comedy. A "remake^ means •a. a copyb. a reprint C・ reproduction50. The English Patient was directed by a Briton, shot in Italy, and starred French and British talent. A Briton means .a. a British b・ an Italian c. a GermanPart IV Translation (20 points)Translate the following passages into Chinese.Passage 1China^s membership in the World Trade Organization creates the potential for impressive gains in economic efficiency. Indeed the gains are likely to be greater than those predicted in most published quantitative estimates, since those studies do not capture fully the likely effect of more foreign competition on domestic firms. No doubt many jobs will be lost in a few sectors. But prospects for generating employment are bountiful as China benefits from the phase-out of arrangements restricting world trade in apparel, and as Taiwan, Mexico, the EU, and other markets phase out and eliminate the WTO-inconsistent trade barriers they have maintained against a broad array of Chinese goods.Passage 2The major advertising media are newspaper, magazines, direct mail, outdoor advertising, television, and radio. Newspapers account for the greatest part of advertising expenditure, with television running a fairly close second. Magazine advertising is perhaps the most prestigious, and direct mail is certainly the most selective medium. Radio and magazine advertising can also be quite selective, and radio is relatively inexpensive.。

A. few B. all C. more D. anyPart IV Reading Comprehension ( 40%)Read the following articles and choose one correct answer A, B, C or D.Passage 1As is known to all, the organization and management of wages and salaries are very complicated. Generally speaking, the Account Department is responsible for calculations of pay, while the Personnel Department is interested in discussions with the employees about pay.If a firm wants to adopt a new wage and salary structure, it is essential that the firm should decide on a method of job evaluation and ways of measuring the performance of its employees. In order to be successful, that new pay structure will need agreement between Trade Unions and employers.In job evaluation, all of the requirements of each job are defined in a detailed job description. Each of those requirements is given a val ue, generally in “points”, which are added together to give a total value for the job. For middle and higher management, a special method is used to evaluate managers on their knowledge of the job, their responsibility, and their ability to solve problems. Because of the difficulty in measuring management work, however, job grades for managers are often decided without reference to an evaluation system based on points.In attempting to design a pay system, the Personnel Department should compare the value of each job with those in the job market. It should also consider economic factors such as the cost of living and the labor supply.It is necessary that payment for a job should vary with any distinctions in the way that job is performed. Where it is simple to measure the work done, as in the work done with the hands, monetary encouragement schemes are often chosen; for indirect workers, where measurement is difficult, methods of additional payments are employed.31. If a company wants its new pay structure to be successful, it is necessary to _______.A. give the workers extra pay to encourage themB. share the same opinion between the Trade Union and the employersC. consult some problems associated with payD. adopt a special way to evaluate the performance of its employees32. The methods of additional payments are adopted for indirect workers because __________.A. they don't have a higher payB. the firm hasn't enough fundC. the measurement of their work is very difficultD. their work is less important than that of other workers33. What should a firm consider in designing a new pay system?A. The value of each job alone.B. The method of calculating the pay.C. The requirements of each job.D. The labor supply and the cost of living.34. It can be inferred from the passage that _______.A. only the Accounts Department is involved in the management of salariesB. different job performances should be given different paymentsC. an evaluation system based on points is usually used to measure management workD. evaluating management work makes no difference from other work35. The main purpose of this passage is to _______.A. explain how the performance of a job can be measured in pointsB. describe the responsibilities of various departmentsC. tell readers how a firm can succeed in adopting a new pay systemD. tell readers how difficult the management work isPassage 2The appeal of advertising to buying motives can have both negative and positive effects. Consumers may be convinced to buy a product of poor quality or high price because of an advertisement. For example, some advertisers appealed to people's desire for better fuel economy for their cars by advertising automotive products that improve gasoline mileage. Some of the products work. Others are worthless and a waste of consumers' money.Sometimes advertising is intentionally misleading. A few years ago a brand of bread was offered to dieters (节食者) with the message that there were fewer calories (卡路里) in every slice. It turned out that the bread was not dietetic (适合于节食的), but just regular bread. There were fewer calories because it was sliced very thin, but there were the same number of calories in every loaf.On the positive side, emotional appeals may respond to a consumer's real concerns. Consider fire insurance. Fire insurance may be sold by appealing to fear of loss. But fear of loss is the real reason for fire insurance. The security of knowing that property is protected by insurance makes the purchase of fire insurance a worthwhile investment for most people. If consumers consider the quality of the insurance plans as the message in the ads, they will benefit from the advertising.Each consumer must evaluate her or his own situation. Are the benefits of the product important enough to justify buying it? Advertising is intended to appeal to consumers, but it does not force them to buy the product. Consumers still control the final buying decision.36. Advertising can persuade the consumer to buy worthless products by ________.A. stressing their high qualityB. convincing him of their low priceC. maintaining a balance between quality and priceD. appealing to his buying motives37. The reason why the bread advertisement is misleading is that ________.A. thin slices of bread could contain more caloriesB. the loaf was cut into regular slicesC. the bread was not genuine breadD. the total number of calories in the loaf remained the same38. The passage tells us that _________.A. sometimes advertisements really sell what the consumer needsB. advertisements occasionally force consumers into buying things they don't needC. the buying motives of consumers are controlled by advertisementsD. fire insurance is seldom a worthwhile investment39. It can be inferred from the passage that a smart consumer should ________.A. think carefully about the benefits described in the advertisementsB. guard against the deceiving nature of advertisementsC. be familiar with various advertising strategiesD. avoid buying products that have strong emotional appeal40. The passage is mainly about _________.A. how to make a wise buying decisionB. ways to protect the interests of the consumerC. the positive and negative aspects of advertisingD. the function of advertisements in promoting salesPassage 3Over the past decade, American companies have tried hard to find ways to discourage senior managers from feathering their own nests at the expense of their shareholder. The three most popular reforms have been recruiting more outside directors in order to make boards more independent, linking bosses' pay to various performance measures, and giving bosses share options, so that they have the same long-term interests as their shareholders.These reforms have been widely adopted by America's larger companies, and surveys suggest that many more companies are thinking of following their lead. But have they done any good? Three papers presented at the annual meeting of the Academy of Management in Boston this week suggest not. As is usually the case with boardroom tinkering, the consequences have differed from those intended.Start with those independent boards. On the face of it, dismissing the boss's friends from the board and replacing them with outsiders looks a perfect way to make senior managers more accountable. But that is not the conclusion of a study by Professor James Westphal. Instead, he found that bosses with a boardroom full of outsiders spend much of their time building alliances, doing personal favors and generally pleasing the outsiders.All too often, these seductions succeed. Mr. Westphal found that, to a remarkable degree, "independent" boards pursue strategies that are likely to favor senior managers rather than shareholders. Such companies diversify their business, increase the pay of executives and weaken the link between pay and performance.To assess the impact of performance-related pay, Mr. Westphal asked the bosses of 103 companies with sales of over $ 1 billion what measurements were used to determine their pay. The measurements varied widely, ranging from sales to earnings per share. But the researcher's big discovery was that bosses attend to measures that affect their own incomes and ignore or play down other factors that affect a company's overall success.In short, bosses are quick to turn every imaginable system of corporate government to their advantage-which is probably why they are the people who are put in charge of things. Here is paradox for the management theorists: any boss who can not beat a system designed to keep him under control is probably not worth having not beat a system designed to keep him under control is probably not worth having.41. What is the purpose of the large companies in recruiting outsiders and putting them on the board of directors?A. To diversify the business of the corporation.B. To enhance the cooperation between the senior managers and the board directors.C. To protect the interests of the shareholders.D. To introduce effective reforms in business management.42. What does Professor James Westphal’s study suggest?A. With a boardroom full of outsiders, senior managers work more conscientiously.B. Outside board directors tend to be more independent.C. Boardroom reforms have failed to achieve the desired result.D. Cooperation between senior managers and board directors suffered from the reforms.43. The word “seduction” in the fourth paragraph probably means “____”A. efforts to conquerB. exertions to understandC. endeavors to increase profitsD. attempts to win over44. Which of the following statements is true?A. Corporate executives in general are worth the high pay they receive.B. The income of corporate executives is proportional to the growth of corporate profits.C. Corporate executives tend to take advantage of their position to enrich themselves.D. The performance of corporate executives affects their own interests more than those of the shareholders.45. How does the author feel about the efforts to control senior executives?A. approving.B. optimistic.C. positive.D. doubtfulPassage 4GETTING THE MOST OUT OF MEETINGOne aspect of business life which many managers are unhappy with is the need to attend meetings. Research indicates that managers will spend between a third and a half of their working lives in meetings. Although most managers would agree that it is hard to think of analternative to meetings, as a means of considering information and making collective decisions, their length and frequency can cause problems with the workload of even the best-organised executives.Meetings work best if they take place only when necessary and not as a matter of routine. One example of this is the discussion of personal or career matters between members of staff and their line and personnel managers. Another is during the early stages of a project when the team managing it need to learn to understand and trust one another.Once it has been decided that a meeting is necessary, decisions need to be taken about who will attend and about the location and length of the meeting. People should only be invited to attend if they are directly involved in the matters under discussion and the agenda should be distributed well in advance. An agenda is vital because it acts as a road map to keep discussion focused and within the time limited allocated. This is also the responsibility of the person chairing the meeting, who should encourage those who say little to speak and stop those who have a great deal to say from talking too much.At the end of a well organised meeting, people will feel that the meeting has been a success and be pleased they were invited. They will know not only what decisions were made but also the reasons for these decisions. Unfortunately, at the end of a badly organised meeting those present will leave feeling that they have wasted their time and that nothing worthwhile has been achieved.Much together has been given over the years to ways of keeping meeting short. One man who has no intention of spending half his working life in meeting is Roland Winterson, chief executive of a large manufacturing company. He believes that meetings should be short, sharp and infrequent. “I try to hold no more than two or three meetings a week, attended by a maximum of three people for no longer than half an hour,” he says. “They are clearly aimed at achieving a specific objective, such as making a decision or planning a strategy, and are based on careful preparation. I draw up the agenda for every meeting and circulate it in advance; those attending are expected to study it carefully and should be prepared to both ask and answer questions. Managers are best employed carrying out tasks directly connected with their jobs not attending endless meetings. In business, time is money and spending it in needless meetings that don’t achieve anything can be very costly. Executives should follow the example of lawyers and put a cost on each hour of their time and then decide whether attending a long meeting really is the best way to spend their time.”46. What do most managers think about meetings?A. Meetings take up most of their working life.B. Meetings allow them to monitor decision-making.C. Meetings prevent them from establishing a routine.D. Meetings are the only way they know of achieving certain objectives. 47. According to the writer, an example of a valuable meeting is one whichA. allows colleagues to achieve a better working relationship.B. requires managers to discuss staffing needs with personnel.C. selects a suitable group of people to work together as a team.D. encourages staff to present ideas on improvements in management.48. According to the writer the agenda is important because itA. is seen by everybody before the meeting.B. helps to give direction to the discussions.C. contains items of interest to all those present.D. shows who should speak at each stage of the meeting.49. The writer says that people leaving a well organised meeting will understandA. the reason for their invitation to attend.B. how the decisions taken were relevant to them.C. the importance of proposals under discussion.D. why certain courses of action were agreed upon.50. What does Roland Winterson say about the meetings that he organises?A. He aims to hold them on a regular basis.B. He ensures they have a definite purpose.C. He requires his managers to draw up the agenda.D. He uses them to make decisions about strategy.Part V Business Writing (20%)Your company is considering appointing someone as your assistant.

Here are some general rules:Napkin(餐巾)useThe meal begins when the host unfolds his or her napkin. This is your signal to do the same, so place your napkin on your lap.

Instead, fill a soup spoon about 75 percent with soup, and sip(啜饮)it from the side noiselessly.After finishing dinner, place the knife and fork parallel to one another across the plate with the knife facing inward toward the plate.Using your fingersHere's a list of finger foods: sandwiches, cookies, small fruits or berries with stems, French fries and potato chips, and hamburgers.Chew(咀嚼)with your mouth closed and don't make noise; don't talk with your mouth full.Bread must be broken with your hands.

If you put your money in a savings account, one year later, you'll have more money than you put in. WhyWhen you keep your money in a bank, your money earns interest. Interest is an amount of money a bank pays you to use your money. The bank uses your money (and the money of other people too) to loan money to people and businesses.The bank will send you a statement several times a year. A bank statement tells you how much money you have in your account It also tells you how much interest you have earned If you leave your money in the bank, you can watch it grow! Another way you can save money is to buy a certificate of deposit or CD. If you have some money that you don't need to use for a long time, this is a good way to make your money grow. You Can buy a CD at a bank You agree not to use the money for a certain period of time That period might be from six months to five years. You can't touch your money during that time. If you do, you must pay a penalty or fee.6. Your money will earn more money if you put it _______.A. in your roomB. in a piggy bankC. in your pocketD. in a savings account7.

Scientists have reason to believe that trees do communicate (交际) with each other. Not long ago, researchers learned some surprising things. First a willow tree attacked in the woods by caterpillars (毛虫) changed the chemistry of its leaves and made them taste so terrible that they got tired of the leaves and stopped eating them. Then even more astonishing, the tree sent out a special smell---a signal (信号) causing its neighbors to change the chemistry of their own leaves and make them less tasty.Communication, of course, doesn’t need to be in words. We can talk to each other by smiling, raising our shoulders and moving our hands. We know that birds and animals use a whole vocabulary of songs, sounds, and movements. Bees dance their signals, flying in certain patterns that tell other bees where to find nectar (花蜜) for honey. So why shouldn’t trees have ways of sending message11. It can be concluded from the passage that caterpillars do not feed on leaves that ______.A. are lying on the groundB. have an unpleasant tasteC. bees d on’t likeD. have an unfamiliar shape12. The willow tree described in the passage protected itself by ______.A. growing more branchesB. communicating with birds and beesC. changing its leaf chemistryD. shaking caterpillars off13. According to the passage, the willow tree was able to communicate with other trees by______.A. waving its branchesB. giving off a special smellC. dropping its leavesD. changing the color of its trunk14. According to this passage, bees communicate by ______.A. making special movementB. touching one anotherC. smelling one anotherD. making unusual sound15. The author believes that the incident described in the passage ______.A. cannot be taken seriouslyB. should no longer be permittedC. must be checked more thoroughlyD. seems completely reasonableSchooling and EducationIt is commonly believed in the United States that school is where people go to get an education. Nevertheless, it has been said that today children interrupt their education to go to school. The distinction between schooling and education implied by this remark is important.Education is much more open-ended and all-inclusive than schooling. Education knows no limits. It can take place anywhere, whether in the shower or in the job, whether in a kitchen or in a theatre. It includes both the formal learning that takes place in schools and the whole universe of informal learning. The agents of education can range from a respected grandparent to the people debating politics on the radio, from a child to a distinguished scientist. Whereas schooling has a certain predictability, education quite often produces surprises. A chance conversation with a stranger may lead a person to discover how little is known of other religions. Peopleare engaged in education from infancy(婴儿期)on. Education, then, is a very broad, inclusive term. It is a lifelong(一生的)process, a process that starts long before the start of school, and one that should be an integral(基本的)part of one's entire life.Schooling, on the other hand, is a specific, formalized process, whose general pattern varies little from one setting to the next. Throughout a country, children arrive at school at approximately the same time, take assigned(指定的)seats, are taught by an adult, use similar textbooks, do homework, take exams, and so on. The slices of reality that are to be learned, whether they are words or an understanding of the working of government, have usually been limited by the boundaries of the subject being taught. For example, high school students know that they are not likely to find out in their classes the truth about political problems in their communities or what the newest filmmakers are experimenting with. There are definite conditions surrounding the formalized process of schooling.16. Which of the following is true according to the authorA. School is the place where people get informal educationB.
