Some sort of propaganda(宣传) influenced you to make that decision. That thing has a name and it's called persuasion, a process which aims to change one's attitude,behavior, beliefs, intention and principles. Persuasion is a very powerful weapon that can be used wisely in all types of businesses, presentations and public speeches. So it's essential to master the art of persuasion.There are many benefits of mastering the art of persuasion. Firstly, it can help you convince and motivate people of your class. By mastering the art of persuasion, you can change a person's perception(观念) and attitudes towards something. We often convince our parents to spend some money and buy us cars, gadgets, cinema tickets and fancy clothes. You steer(驾驭) all these actions by using effectively the art of persuasion. Most of us don't even realize that our lives are getting influenced by persuasion.Secondly, it can help you succeed in a job interview. When you apply for a job, you know there are thousands of applicants for the same job you're eager to get. The only way to come out on top and stand out from thousands of interviewees for that particular job is by applying persuasion to nail that job. You sell yourself to him, convince your interviewer that he won't find somebody like you elsewhere and he'll look to you in a brighter way than the others.Thirdly, it can help you succeed in your business. The business world today is getting larger and more competitive and it doesn't fit everyone. Only the ones who can master the art of persuasion are able to succeed. Persuasion in business can be applied through several ways, such as propaganda, advertising, and brainwashing. Therefore, you should realize that persuasion is quite helpful in selling more products or services and can help you succeed in all types of businesses.Lastly, it can help you avoid being persuaded by other people. Can you recall the product that you bought in a shop that seemed to be very useful and cost-effective at first glance and made you change your view upon it, but after a while you realized that you wasted your money for something worthless? I know you remember it. And that was a successful attempt of persuasion. You could have prevented that purchase if you mastered the art of persuasion by unmasking(揭露) the truth and making the right decision with a reasonable response.16．What is the passage mainly about?A．The art of persuasion.B．The importance of persuasive skills.C．The definition of persuasion.D．The application of persuasive skills.17．According to the second paragraph, the art of persuasion can ________．A．make you able to change others' livesB．make you keep motivatedC．make you seem more trustableD．prevent your life being influenced18．It is inferred from the passage that ________．A．a successful businessman must be good at persuading peopleB．a person being bad at persuading people can't find a good jobC．one can't succeed without mastering the art of persuasionD．somebody loses much money due to lack of persuasive skills19．Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?BMy dad was never the kind to offer many words of love or encouragement. But we knew he loved us…He just had his own way of showing it.When I was a teen, we were seasonal campers at a family campground almost an hour outside the city where we lived.Each family had their own campsite with water and electric，and you basically parked your camper there from May through October. Most “seasonals” visited them every weekend during those months, with the occasional week-long stay. There were plenty of other kids who camped seasonally each weekend, and they came to be some of my closest friends. Of course, many of them were boys.We kids paired up with our little boyfriends or girlfriends，and we'd hold hands as we walked around the campground. We'd play ping-pong, have some snacks, and sing songs. Most weekends were pretty similar, but the couples would change. You'd see so-and-so with a different so-and-so than they were with the weekend before. You know how it is when you're a teen—a three-week relationship is a really long time.So, needless to say, my teen years were spent with quite a few different boys. But every single one of them had something in common…They'd all received the Evil Eye.The Evil Eye was a magical sort of thing. One simple look from my dad, and the boy immediately knew not to mess_with me.It was as if he could send his warnings through invisible laser(激光) beams that shot directly from his eyes to the boys' brains.“You will not put your hands on my daughter…You will not kiss my daughter…You will not even whisper sweet things into my daughter's ear.”I remember one night in particular walking with a boy around the campground after dark. We came from one direction, and my dad from the other. The boy and my dad locked eyes for a brief second, then the boy dropped my hand like a hot potato and turned away, giving me a quick “See you later.”Yes, that's the Evil Eye: best way ever to keep wandering teen boys' hands away from your daughter.20．The Evil Eye in the passage implies that ________．A．Dad gets angry easilyB．Dad's eyes are evilC．Dad's eyes are ugly­lookingD．Dad's eyes are protective to his daughter21．The underlined words “mess with”in Paragraph 5 most probably mean “________”．A．cause trouble for B．make untidyC．get married to D．talk to22．Which of the following is true according to the passage?A．As teenagers, we went camping every weekend.B．We made lots of friends during the seasonal camping.C．We had regular boyfriends or girlfriends and enjoyed ourselves.D．The boy dropped my hand and turned away because he loved the Evil Eye.23．It can be inferred from the passage that the author ________．A．is a teenage girl who loves her fatherB．is a teenage boy who hates his fatherC．is now an adult who has come to understand her father's loveD．used to be a naughty boy who changed girlfriends now and then课时作业(六)Ⅰ.1.A be known to sb. 为某人所知；be known for 因为……出名；be known as 以……身份出名。

He is an artist's son，and has used the pencil from his cradle(摇篮)．”“That will double the pleasure of beating him！” cried Cecil.“I'm working now at this four hours a day；he never draws more than two.”“You are not neglecting(忽视)your Latin for it, I hope? You have had the Latin prize every term for these three years past，”said Aunt Sophia.“Yes，”replied Cecil，with a proud smile，“there is no boy in our class who can match me in that，though Russell is now working hard. But I am not content with one prize：I cannot rest till I have won the pa int­box for drawing，of which Tom Lee makes so sure.It would be glorious to beat the son of an artist on his own ground！”“Take care，”said his aunt，“that you do not lose the Latin prize in trying for what you are not likely to gain.”On the evening of the day on which the names of the prize­winners were read out，Cecil came home from school long­faced. His looks told his aunt enough to make her spare him the pain of questions；but his little sister Rosey was not so thoughtful.“Cecil，”she cried，“te ll me，are you to get the two prizes？”“No，not even one. I was so busy trying to beat Lee that I could not hold my ground against Russell.”Cecil threw himself into a sofa in an angry mood.Their aunt silently hoped that the lesson might prove worth the pain which it cost.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了Cecil因为贪心而失掉两个奖项的故事。

In 1879, Oxford University in England asked Prof. James Murray to serve as editor for what was to be the most ambitious dictionary in the history of the English language. It would include every English word possible and would give not only the definition but also the history of the word and quotations(引文)showing how it was used.This was a huge task, so Murray had to find volunteers from Britain, the United States, and the British colonies to search every newspaper, magazine, and book ever written in English. Hundreds of volunteers responded, including William Chester Minor. Dr. Minor was an American surgeon who had served in the Civil War and was now living in England. He gave his address as “Broadmoor, Crowthorne, Berkshire，” 50 miles from Oxford.Minor joined the army of volunteers sending words and quotations to Murray. Over the next 17 years, he became one of the staff's most valued contributors.But he was also a mystery. In spite of many invitations, he would always decline to visit Oxford. So in 1897, Murray finally decided to travel to Crowthorne himself. When he arrived, he found Minor locked in a book­lined cell at the Broadmoor Asylum(精神病院)for the Criminally Insane.Murray and Minor became friends, sharing their love of words. Minor continued contributing to the dictionary, sending in more than 10，000 submissions in 20 years. Murray continued to visit Minor regularly, sometimes taking walks with him around the asylum grounds.In 1910, Minor left Broadmoor for an asylum in his native America. Murray was at the port to wave goodbye to his remarkable friend.Minor died in 1920, seven years before the first edition of the Oxford English Dictionary was completed. The 12 volumes defined 414，825 words, and thousands of them were contributions from a very scholarly and devoted asylum patient.31. According to the text, the first Oxford English Dictionary________.A. came out before Minor diedB. was edited by an American volunteerC. included the English words invented by MurrayD. was intended to be the most ambitious English dictionary32. How did Dr. Minor contribute to the dictionary?A. He helped Murray to find hundreds of volunteers.B. He sent newspapers, magazines and books to Murray.C. He provided a great number of words and quotations.D. He went to England to work with Murray.33. Why did Dr. Minor refuse to visit Oxford?A. He was shut in an asylum.B. He lived far from Oxford.C. He was busy writing a book.D. He disliked traveling.34. Prof. Murray and Dr. Minor became friends mainly because________.A. they both served in the Civil WarB. they had a common interest in wordsC. Minor recovered with the help of MurrayD. Murray went to America regularly to visit MinorBThings have really changed. Not only is the military standing tall again, but it is staging a remarkable comeback in the quantity and quality of the recruits(新兵). Recruits, once denounced by antiwar students as “baby killers” and barred from (从……扫除)campuses, are welcomed ever at famous universities. ROTC (美国后备军官训练队) programs that once faltered are flourishing again. The military academies are enjoying a steady increase in applications.Certainly, the depressed economy has increased the allure(诱惑) of the jobs, technical training and generous student loans offered by the military. Students know that if they go in and become, say, nuclear weapons specialists, they can_come_out_and demand a salary of $60，000 a year. Military salaries, while not always competitive with those paid for comparable jobs in the private sector, are more than respectable, especially considering the wide array of benefits that are available: free medical service, room and board, and PX (Post Exchange) privileges. Monthly pay for a recruit is $574; for a sergeant with four years' service it is $906; for a major with ten years' service it is $2，305. The welfare has helped win over the TV generation. Kids are walking down the school hallways chanting “Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines”. There is a retu rn to the view that the military is anhonorable profession. The days of a judge telling a miscreant to join the Army or go to jail are over. Recruiting for all four services combined is running at 101%of authorized goals. And the retention rate is now so high that the services are refusing some re­enlistment applications and reducing annual recruiting target.The military academics are also enjoying halcyon years，attracting more and better­qualified students. Compared to private colleges, where tuition and expenses have been climbing sharply, the service schools are a real bargain: not only is tuition free, but recruits get allowances of up to $500 a month. It is reported 12，300 applicants are for the 1，450 positions in this year's freshman class. Military academies are now just as selective as any of the best universities in the country. Nationwide, ROTC enrollment exceeds 105，000，a 64% increase over the 1974 figure. In the mid 70's, the ROTC students refused to wear their uniforms on campus because they suffered all sorts of ridicule, if they did. Now if they wear them to class no one looks at them twice.35．What is the main idea of this passage?A．The military is in.B．The military is up.C．The military is down.D．The military is on.36．What was the attitude of the students in 1970s towards the military?A．Approval. B．Indifferent.C．Distaste. D．Scolding.37．The underlined phrase “come out” is closest in meaning to “______”．A．become visibleB．begin to growC．be made publicD．gain a certain position38．Which one of the following is NOT mentioned as a reason to attract students?A．Free tuition.B．Spacious room.C．Considerate allowance.D．Technical training.Ⅳ.短文改错Nowadays more and more people are concerning about their health, but how to keep health?
