Y ou nee d only say, "Do you have a business card?" or " May I have your business card?" When you want to present your own card, you can say, " Here's my card. Please feel free to call me if you have any suggestions." If you wish to offer your card to a long-time associate, you can say, " Did I ever give you my card?" or "I mean to give you my card." It's not polite to directly refuse a request from someone for your business card. Instead, you can say, "Sorry, but I'm afraid I'm all out at the moment." or ' I neglected to bring them with me." Giving someone your card, of course, does not obligate you to continue contact, nor does accepting someone else's card. When you do receive a card, say "Thank you." and examine it briefly before putting it away. Y ou can use a business card that you received to refresh your memory about someone's name and title before your next meeting. Y ou can also record notes about the meeting on the back of the card, or place it in your card file.26.Which of the following is an impolite behavior according to the passage?[D]27.What should you do when accepting a business card?[B]28.What's the function of a business card according to the passage?[A]Passage T woIf you are someone who tends to focus on the negative, thinking positively may be a new skill for you. One way to keep a positive attitude about yourself is by writing down and saying several sentences. The sentences should be strong, supportive statements about yourself such as "I am a confident and capable person who can handle challenges." It's hard to feel defeated when your self-talk is positive. Another technique for reducing stress is positive images. When confronted with a problem, try to imagine the outcome that you want. This technique is used by sport professinals with tremendous success . Y ou too can champion your cause by mentally picturing positive results. Sometime people are faced with unfortunate circumstances that can not be changed. In these instances, it may help to think about some of the assets and resources that you have thatcan support you and help you cope such as family, friends, skills, educations, money and good health.29.How can you imagine positively?[D]30.How should you face the unchangeable misfortune?[B]31.What is mainly discussed in the passage?[C]Passage ThreeA fellow had just been hired as the new CEO of a large high-tech corporation.

W ell, things went along pretty smoothly, but six months later, sales took a decline and he was really under thepressure. He remembered the envelopes. He went to his drawer and took out the first envelope. The message read, "Blame your former CEO." The new CEO called a press conference and laid all the faults on the previous CEO .

About a year later, the company was again experiencing serious product problems. Having learned from his previous experience, the CEO quickly opened the second envelope. The message read, " Reogranize ". Then he did, and the company quickly reorganized. After several months, the company once again fell on difficult times.

The message said, " Prepare three envelopes".32.From whom did the new CEO get three envelopes?[A]33.In the first half year, how did the business go?[C]34.What was the message in the first envelope?[B]35.What did the last envelope mean?[D]Section C36.cushions 37. deliver 38. items 39 .package 40. light41. purple 42 .imagine 42 .ordered44 .

For questions 1-7,choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) andD). For questions 8-10, complete the sentences with the informationgiven in the passage.British Cuisine: the Best of Old and NewBritish cuisine (烹饪) has come of age in recent years as chefs (厨师) combine the best of old and new.Why does British food have a reputation for being so bad? Because it is bad! Those are not the most encouraging words to hear just before eating lunch at one of Hong Kong's smartest British restaurants, Alfie's by KEE, but head chef Neil Tomes has more to say."The past 15 years or so have been a noticeable period of improvement for food in England," the English chef says, citing the trend in British cuisine for better ingredients, preparation and cooking methods, and more appealing presentation. Chefs such as Delia Smith, Nigel Slater, Jamie Oliver and Gordon Ramsay made the public realise that cooking - and eating - didn't have to be a boring thing. And now, most of the British public is familiar even with the extremes of Heston BlumenthaPs molecular gastronomy, a form of cooking that employs scientific methods to create the perfect dish."It's no longer the case that the common man in England is embarrassed to show he knows about food," Tomes says.There was plenty of room for improvement. The problems with the nation'scuisine can be traced back to the Second World War. Before the War, much of Britain's food was imported and when German U-boats began attacking ships bringing food to the country, Britain went on rations (配给)."As rationing came to an end in the 1950s, technology picked up and was used to mass-produce food," Tomes says. "And by then people were just happy to have a decent quantity of food in their kitchens."They weren't looking for cured meats, organic produce or beautiful presentation; they were looking for whatever they could get their hands on, and this prioritisation of quantity over quality prevailed for decades, meaning a generation was brought up with food that couldn't compete with neighbouring France, Italy, Belgium or Spain.Before star chefs such as Oliver began making cooking fashionable, it was hard to find a restaurant in London that was open after 9pm. But in recent years the capital's culinary (烹饪的) scene has developed to the point that it is now confident of its ability to please the tastes of any international visitor.With the opening of Alfie's in April, and others such as The Pawn, two years ago, modern British food has made its way to Hong Kong. "With British food, I think that Hong Kong restaurants are keeping up," says David Tamlyn, the Welsh executive chef at The Pawn in Wan Chai. "Hong Kong diners are extremely responsive to new ideas or presentations, which is good news for new dishes."Chefs agree that diners in Hong Kong are embracing the modern Britishtrend. Some restaurants are modifying the recipes (菜谱) of British dishes to breathe new life into the classics, while others are using better quality ingredients but remaining true to British traditions and tastes.Tamlyn is in the second camp. "We select our food very particularly. We use US beef, New Zealand lamb and for our custards (牛奶蛋糊)we use Bird's Custard Powder," Tamlyn says. "Some restaurants go for custard made fresh with eggs, sugar and cream, but British custard is different, and we stay true to that."Matthew Hill, senior manager at the two-year-old SoHo restaurant Yorkshire Pudding, also uses better ingredients as a means of improving dishes. "There are a lot of existing perceptions about British food and so we can't alter these too much. We're a traditional British restaurant so there are some staples (主菜) that will remain essentially unchanged."These traditional dishes include fish and chips, steak and kidney pie and large pieces of roasted meats. At Alfie's, the newest of the British restaurants in town and perhaps the most gentlemen's club-like in design, Neil Tomes explains his passion for provenance (原产地)."Britain has started to become really proud of the food it's producing. It has excellent organic farms, beautifully crafted cheeses, high-quality meats."However, the British don't have a history of exporting their foodstuffs, which makes it difficult for restaurants in Hong Kong to source authentic ingredients."We can get a lot of our ingredients once a week from the UK," Tamlyn explains."But there is also pressure to buy local and save on food miles, which means we take our vegetables from the local markets, and there are a lot that work well with British staples."The Phoenix, in Mid-Levels, offers the widest interpretation of "British cuisine", while still trying to maintain its soul. The gastro-pub has existed in various locations in Hong Kong since 2002. Singaporean head chef Tommy Teh Kum Chai offers daily specials on a blackboard, rather than sticking to a menu. This enables him to reinterpret British cuisine depending on what is available in the local markets."We use a lot of ingredients that people wouldn't perhaps associate as British, but are presented in a British way. Bell peppers stuffed with couscous, alongside ratatouille, is a very popular dish."Although the ingredients may not strike diners as being traditional, they can be found in dishes across Britain.Even the traditional chefs are aware of the need to adapt to local tastes and customs, while maintaining the Britishness of their cuisine.At Yorkshire Pudding, Hill says that his staff asks diners whether they would like to share their meals. Small dishes, shared meals and "mixing it up" is not something commonly done in Britain, but Yorkshire Pudding will bring full dishes to the table and offer individual plates for each diner. "That way, people still get the presentation of the dishes as they were designed, but can carve them up however they like," Hill says.This practice is also popular at The Pawn, although largely for rotisseries (烤肉馆),Tamlyn says. "Some tables will arrive on a Sunday, order a whole chicken and a shoulder of lamb or a baby pig, and just stay for hours enjoying everything we bring out for them."Some British traditions are too sacred (神圣的)to mess with, however, Tomes says. "I'd never change a full English breakfast."注意：此部分试题请在答题卡1上作答。
