Question

【題目】任務(wù)型閱讀,根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容完成下表，每空一詞

If you are asked to chair a meeting, remember the following six golden rules for meeting management.

Always start the meeting on time. If you begin on time, group members who show up late will realize the value of time. Beginning on time shows the skill as an effective time manager and sets an example for others to follow.

Select a note-taker or have the meeting recorded. You may need to go back to something that was discussed during the meeting at a later date. Good record-keeping is a sign of a good meeting manager as well.

Learn to listen. So many times we think about what we are going to say and, in the process, miss important points that other group members may be contributing （做貢獻(xiàn)）. What’s more, we often hear only what we want to hear, instead of really listening to other people. Meetings with effective listening are successful meetings.

Keep the discussion on track（軌道）. Many times an important topic can get sidetracked(轉(zhuǎn)變話題) in a meeting, especially when everyone has a different opinion about the topic. Ask members who have different opinions to meet with you after the meeting. Doing so will help keep the discussion on track and reduce the chances of wasting group members’ time of great value.

Give everyone an opportunity to be heard. Some people like to control meetings, while others wait to be asked their opinions. As the leader of the meeting, you need to keep an open mind and make sure everyone feels welcome to contribute and express ideas freely.

End on time. If you said the meeting would last no longer than one hour, make sure the meeting lasts for only one hour. Running late with a meeting makes members late for other appointments, increases the chances that the members will mentally leave the meeting and reduces your reliability as an effective meeting manager.

試題分析：這篇短文講述的是如何組織一次成功的會議，作者告訴了我們六個黃金法則，一是要準(zhǔn)時開會；二是要選擇記錄員記錄會議內(nèi)容；三是要學(xué)會傾聽；四是要保證話題在正軌上，不跑題；五是要讓每個人都有發(fā)言的機(jī)會；最后是按時結(jié)束會議。

【1】這篇短文的第一句話即是全文的中心句，根據(jù)If you are asked to chair a meeting, remember the following six golden rules for meeting management.可知，這篇短文是對如何組織會議提出了一些建議。故這個空應(yīng)該填advice或suggestions，他們都是建議的意思，advice 是一個不可數(shù)名詞，suggestion是一個可數(shù)名詞。

【2】短文的第一句話中提到了關(guān)于組織會議的六個黃金法則，six golden rules，故這里表格中的這個部分應(yīng)該是這幾個rules。故填Rules。后面第二欄中是reasons，原因。

【3】根據(jù)短文的第二段中Beginning on time shows the skill as an effective time manager and sets an example for others to follow.可知，按時開始會議表現(xiàn)出一個有效率的經(jīng)理人的技能，也能給別人樹立一個榜樣，讓他們遵守規(guī)則。set an example樹立榜樣。

【4】根據(jù)短文的第三段中Select a note-taker or have the meeting recorded.可知，這里作者建議我們選擇一個會議記錄員，把會議內(nèi)容記錄下來。record 是一個動詞，意思是記錄。這個空使用的句型是have sb. do sth.，故這里填動詞原形。

【5】根據(jù)短文中You may need to go back to something that was discussed during the meeting at a later date.可知，這里作者告訴我們找人記錄會議內(nèi)容的原因，是以后的某個時候，你也許需要回顧會議上討論的事情。later 后來，之后。

【6】根據(jù)短文中Meetings with effective listening are successful meetings.可知，作者認(rèn)為，有效傾聽的會議才是成功的會議，故這里應(yīng)該填success,名詞成功。

【7】根據(jù)短文中的第四個黃金規(guī)則Keep the discussion on track可知，作者建議我們要保證討論在正軌上，不要跑題。故這里應(yīng)該填discussion。

【8】根據(jù)短文中Doing so will help keep the discussion on track and reduce the chances of wasting group members’ time of great value.可知，在開會時不跑題，這樣可以減少浪費(fèi)小組成員們寶貴的時間。of great value 就相當(dāng)于valuable。

【9】根據(jù)短文中的第五個黃金規(guī)則Give everyone an opportunity to be heard.可知，在開會時，要保證每個人都有發(fā)言的機(jī)會。故這里填heard，被聽到，是一個過去分詞的形式。

【10】根據(jù)短文中As the leader of the meeting, you need to keep an open mind and make sure everyone feels welcome to contribute and express ideas freely.可知，作者認(rèn)為，作為一個會議的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者，你需要思想開放，保證每個人都覺得在會議上受歡迎，能自由的表達(dá)自己的想法。故這里填welcome。
