Being less than perfectly well-dressed in a business setting can result in a feeling of great discomfort that may well require treatment to eliminate. And the sad truth is that “clothing mismatches” on the job can ruin the day of the person who is wearing the inappropriate attire(著裝)—and the people with whom he or she comes in contact.

Offices vary when it comes to dress codes. Some businesses have very high standards for their employees and set strict guidelines for office attire, while others maintain a more relaxed attitude. However, it is always important to remember that no matter what your company’s attitude is regarding what you wear, you are working in a business environment and you should dress properly. Certain items may be more appropriate for evening wear than for a business meeting, just as shorts and a T-shirt are better suited for the beach than for an office environment. Your attire should reflect both your environment and your position. A senior vice president has a different image to maintain than that of a secretary or sales assistant. Like it or not, you will be judged by your personal appearance.

This is never more apparent than on “dress-down days”, when what you wear can say more about you than any business suit ever could. In fact, people will pay more attention to what you wear on dress-down days than on “business professional ” days. Thus, when dressing in “business casual” clothes, try to put some good taste into your wardrobe choices, recognize that the “real” definition of business casual is to dress just one notch(等級) down from what you would normally wear of business-professional attire days.

Remember, there are borders between your career and our social life. You should dress one way for play and another way when you mean business. Always ask yourself where you are going and how other people will be dressed when you get there. Is the final destination the opera, the beach, or the office? Dress properly and you will discover the truth in the principle that clothes make the man—and the woman. When in doubt, always misjudge on the side of dressing slightly more traditionally than the situation demands.

1.What is the passage mainly about?

A. How to dress properly in a business setting.

B. A president of a company should dress differently from a secretary or sales assistant.

C. The differences between professional and casual dress.

D. Improper dress will make a person feel uncomfortable.

2.Which of the following statements is true?

A. Every company has strict rules regarding office dress.

B. You can wear whatever you like if your company doesn’t have standards for dressing.

C. You should dress according to the business setting even when there are no fixed rules.

D. In companies with relaxed rules on office dress, you can’t spot a manager among others.

3.Which statement best describes “dress-down days”?

A. We can’t judge a person’s taste by his clothes on dress-down days.

B. People’s clothes on dress-down days don’t receive much attention.

C. On dress-down days, you can wear whatever you like.

D. People are usually more careful about what they wear on dress-down days than on other occasions.

4.Which of the following is NOT the rule in the passage with regard to business dress?

A. For a business meeting and a concert, you should dress differently.

B. Remember to ask others for advice when you are not sure about what to dress.

C. Think about how other guests will wear if you are invited to a dinner.

D. Dress a bit traditionally if you are not sure about proper dress for a certain occasion.

I didn't cry when I learned I was the parent of a mentally handicapped child. I just sat still and didn't say anything.

When Kristi was old enough, we sent her to a kindergarten. It would have been comforting to cry the day I left her in that room full of kids. Kristi had spent hour upon hour playing by herself, but this moment, when she was the "different" child among them, she was probably the loneliest.

However, positive things began to happen to Kristi in her school, and to her schoolmates, too. Kristi's classmates always took pains to praise her: "Kristi got all her spelling words right today." No one bothered to add that her spelling list was easier than anyone else's.

Later, she faced a very special challenge. The final event of the term was a program based on a final outcome of the year's music and physical education activities. Kristi was behind in both. My husband and I dreaded the day as well.

On the day of the program, Kristi pretended to be sick. Desperately I wanted to keep her home. Surely missing one program couldn't matter. But my conscience wouldn't let me off that easily. So I practically got a pale, reluctant Kristi onto the school bus.

Just as I had forced my daughter to go to school, now I forced myself to go to the program. At the kindergarten, I felt worried because of her slow and clumsy reactions, she would surely hold up her team.

The performance went well until it was time for the sack race. Surely Jenny would find it tough. Now each child had to climb into a sack, hop to a goal line, return and climb out of the sack(袋子). I noticed Jenny standing near the end of her line of players.

But as her turn to join, a change took place in her team. The tallest boy behind Kristi placed his hands on her waist. Two other boys stood ahead of her. The moment the player in front of Kristi stepped from the sack, those two boys grabbed the sack and held it open while the tall boy lifted Kristi and dropped her into it. A girl ahead took her hand and supported her. Kristi gained her balance. Then off she hopped, smiling and proud.

At the cheers of teachers, schoolmates and parents, I silently thanked the warm, understanding people in life who make it possible for my disabled daughter to be like her fellow human beings.

Then I finally cried.

1.When sending her daughter to the kindergarten, the writer must have felt __________.

A. lonelyB. worriedC. cheerfulD. scared

2.What does the underlined sentence imply?

A. It didn't matter to miss one program because it was not important.

B. Kristi's illness prevented her from taking part in the program.

C. It gave the author a good excuse not to send Kristi to the program.

D. The teachers wouldn't blame Kristi for she was ill.

3.The author expressed her gratitude mainly because ________.

A. her daughter's teammates helped her experience the happy feeling of her age

B. her daughter Kristi won the competition with the help of her teammates

C. the teachers at the kindergarten arranged some teammates to help her daughter

D. the other kids' parents cheered for her daughter's good performance

4.What's the best title of the passage?

A. My disabled daughterB. An unforgettable experience

C. The day I criedD. A warm-hearted teamwork

The Future of Technology

William, a businessman, arrives in a foreign airport. He doesn’t show his passport. Instead, a machine in the wall reads the computer chip(芯片)in his arm. This contains information about him: his name, age, and I.D number. He exits the airport, and a car door opens when it “sees” him. The car takes him to his hotel. His room “knows” he has entered the building and it “reads” his body. He is cold, so the room becomes warmer. William then watches a business presentation on a video wall. When he takes a bath, the presentation “follows him and continues ”on the bathroom wall. Finally, the room plays music to help him sleep. It turns off the music when it “sees” him sleeping.

William doesn’t exist, and none of this is real. But it might be soon. “In five to ten years, computing and communications are going to be free and everywhere, in your walls, in your car, on your body,” says Victor Zue, leader of Project Oxygen.

Project Oxygen has one big idea: to create better relationships between machines and people. The dream is that computer will learn to understand what people want.

So, what changes will there be at work? Firstly, the building will know where everyone is, all the time. You want to talk to someone? Type the person’s name on the nearest computer. It will show you a map of the building and exactly where this person is. You then call this person, who picks up the nearest telephone, also shown on the computer. If he or she is busy with a client(客戶)or in a meeting, the computer will tell you.

Is all this really possible? Visit the Siebel Center, Illinois and see for yourself: computers in the doors and walls, cameras everywhere, the technology of the future, but here today.

1.William doesn’t show his passport because ________.

A. his information can be read by a machine

B. he doesn’t need a passport in that airport

C. he is not required to show his passport

D. only a man from foreign country needs to show his passport

2.The computer chip in William’s arm contains his information except ________.

A. his name B. his age

C. his job D. his I.D. number

3.The dream of Project Oxygen is that computers will ________.

A. show you where the person is you are calling

B. let you pick up the nearest telephone

C. show you a map of every building

D. learn to understand what people want

七選五

Choosing the right job is probably one of the most important decisions we have to make in life, and it is frequently one of the hardest decisions we have to make. One important question that you might ask yourself is: “How do I get a good job?” __1._.

There are people who can answer an insignificant advertisement in the local paper and land the best job in the world; others write to all sorts of places all over the country, and never seem to get a reply at all. Still others believe that the in person, door-to-door approach is by far the best way to get a job; and then there are those who, through no active decision of their own, just seem to be in the right place at the right time. __2.__. He used to spend a lot of his free time down by the sea watching the tall ships, but never thinking that he might one day sail one of them. His father was a farmer, and being a sailor could never be anything for the boy but an idle dream. One day, on his usual wandering, he heard the captain of the ship complaining that he could not sail because one member of his crew was sick. Without stopping to think, the lad (少年) offered to take his place. _3.__.

__4.__. If the lad had gone home to consider his decision for a week, he may have missed his chance. It is one thing to be offered an opportunity; it is another thing to take it and use it well.

Sometimes we hear stories about people who break all the rules and still seem to land good jobs. When you go for a job interview or fill out an application, you are expected to say nice things about the company to which you are applying. _5.__. And within a year this person had become general manager of the company.

A. This story also illustrates the importance of seizing an opportunity when it presents itself.

B. People find jobs in an infinite number of ways.

C. it’s almost impossible to find a good job by answering advertisement in newspapers

D. Take for example the young man who wanted to be a sailor.

E. But there was one person who landed an excellent job by telling the interviewer all the company’s faults.

F. He spent the rest of his life happily sailing the ships he had always loved.

G. It is very important to seize an opportunity when it presents itself.
