Table mannersPeople who go to a formal western dinner party for the first time may be surprised by the table manners in western culture. Knowing them will help you make a good impression. Having good table manners means knowing, for example, how to use knives and forks, when to drink a toast and how to behave at the table. Beside your napkin(餐巾)，you will find a small bread roll and three glasses----one for white wine, one for red wine, and one for water. There are two pairs of knives and forks on the table, forks on the left and knives on the right of the plate. When you see two spoons(汤匙)，the big one is for the soup and the small one for the dessert. The knife and fork that are closest to your plate are a little bit bigger than ones beside them. When you sit down at the table, you can take your napkin, unfold it and put it on your lap(膝盖)。

The package is divided into two buckets—base salary and bonus.The bonus is tied to graduation rates,affordability,student achievement,philanthropic support,faculty excellence,and strategic program initiatives.In establishing this bonus system,Daniels married traditional notions of academic quality—as measured by excellence in faculty,programs and resources—with an equal emphasis on effective outcomes and price controls:graduation rates,affordability,and student achievement.(6)In so doing,Daniels has demonstrated his belief that there is common ground to be found between the university and government.The choice is not quality or effectiveness,not excellence or affordability;the future of higher education is not a zero-sum game in which one side wins and the other loses.Rather,he believes it is possible to balance the seemingly conflicting goals of government and higher education.(7)Daniels is not the first president to have his salary tied to achieving institutional goals,but he is probably the most visible.Moreover,although Daniels is renouncing involvement in partisan politics as he enters the Purdue presidency,he is a former Republican governor and party leader known as a frugal fiscal conservative.Historically,the divisions have been greater between Republicans and the academy than has been the case with Democrats.In a very real sense,what Daniels has chosen to do is somewhat akin to Nixon going to China.He has undertaken an experiment to be closely watched.If successful,he will have established a potential model for the country.(8)Typically,presidents reserve such powerful statements for their inaugural addresses.Though such addresses are sincere in intent—I can vouch for that,as someone who has given two and listened to many more—they are generally aspirational;they articulate hopes and dreams for what an institution can become.Daniels has already done something very different. He is putting himself on the line in a very public fashion.Year after year his salary will be determined by his success.And perhaps even more importantly,his success or failure will be public when his board announces the size and rationale for his bonus.(9)It’s a bold step—and Governor Daniels should be applauded for taking it.II.In this section,there are ten incomplete statements or questions, followed by four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on your Answer Sheet.(20points,2points for each)16.The word“rift”in Paragraph1means______A.gapB.dilemmaC.painD.headache17.As to higher education,the government is more and more concerned about ______.A.costs and productivityB.accountabilityC.costs and accessD.graduation rates18.Which of the following statements is true about Daniels’salary package?A.He applies for salary inflation.B.The salary should be more than bonus.C.The salary should be based on his achievement.D.His salary package is the smallest among university presidents.19.The word“married”in Paragraph5means______A.meltedbinedC.arrangedD.acknowledged20.According to the author,the future of higher education is not a zero-sum game because______.A.neither government nor higher education can winB.higher education can achieve both quality and effectivenessC.excellence can only be attained at the cost of affordabilityernment and higher education can never reach agreement21.Nixon’s visit to China is mentioned______.A.to highlight Daniels’pioneering workB.to extol Nixon’s contribution to the countryC.to point out the division between Republicans and DemocratsD.to show the importance of the relationship between the two nations22.The word“articulate”in Paragraph8means______.A.designB.cultivateC.fosterD.express23.It can be inferred from Paragraph8that the author is probably______.A.a farmerB.a freelancerC.a company employeeD.a president of an organization24.The author’s attitude towards Daniels’reformation is______.A.expectantB.indifferentC.negativeD.critical25.Which of the following is most appropriate as a title for this passage?A.A Hard TimeB.A Loyal PresidentC.A Powerful StatementD.A Promising Industry非选择题部分注意事项：用黑色字迹的签字笔或钢笔将答案写在答题纸上，不能答在试题卷上。
