Directions: Read the texts from a magazine article in which five people talked about their listening habits. For questions 64 to 68, match one of the speakers to one of the following statements (A to F ) given below. Note: there is one extra statement.
Mary Taylor:
My father looked at me disapprovingly when I talked to him about ideas that he didn’t agree with. He would often interrupt me in the middle of a sentence to tell me I was wrong. As a result of the childhood experience, I had difficulty concentrating when anyone in authority talked to me. I would concentrate on how I was coming across to the other person, not on what the person was saying.
Chris More:
My father used to frown (皺眉) when concentrating on something. I thought he was angry or upset with me until I later found out that he was only thinking about what he was doing. I certainly experienced some anxiety until I found this out. When I started conducting seminars(會(huì)議), I discovered that I frowned a lot while concentrating on what the talker was saying , and the attendees thought I was being critical of them.
Janet Smith:
I constantly tuned others out (不理睬)while they were talking and I couldn’t seem to break the habit . It upset me because I was having trouble at work listening to directions and paying attention during meetings. As it happened, my mother had been a nonstop talker who ignored my needs. To keep my own sanity(清醒), I had learned to shut her out of my consciousness. I became so good at tuning her out that I generalized this behavior ------ tuning other people out as well.
Lylian Mason:
I often feel victim in my interactions with my boss. I think he is the persecutor and I’m the victim. For example, late Thursday afternoon, my boss gave me a twenty-page project with graphs and numerical tables to type and finish by Monday at 10 a.m. I didn’t listen to the time he stated when he handed me the project. Instead, I was busy figuring out how I was going to get it down and finish the other work I had on my desk.
Jack Candison:
When I am with a group of people who are interested in the subject I am covering and are receptive to me, they are open to more material and ideas. The more important the subject is to them, the more listening involvement they get into. In other words, the more relevant my material is to their personal or professional goals, the more they listen to what I have to say and the less they tune me out.
64. __________ Mary Taylor
65. __________Chris More
66. __________Janet Smith
67. __________Lylian Mason
68. __________Jack Candison
A.It’s hard for me to change my bad habit of not listening to others.
B.The heavy workload worried me so much.
C.I gave people the impression that I’m being picky (挑剔的)
D.My boss listens to me carefully.
E.My father used to ignore me.
F.People are likely to listen more attentively while the subject is of interest to them.

We all know that language can sometimes get lost in translation. But do you know that some facial小題1:may also be小題2:in cross-cultural situations?
According to a study by Glasgow University, Europeans look小題3: a person's whole face 小題4:people from East Asia focus 小題5:on the eyes. Researchers recorded the eye movements of 13 Westerners and 13 Easterners as they observed pictures of expressive faces.

"Westerners look at the eyes and the mouth小題10:, whereas Easterners小題11:the eyes and neglect the mouth," said researcher Rachael Jack. "This means that Easterners have小題12: in telling apart facial expressions that look similar around the eye region."
Jack said that the differences in eye movement reflected a cultural小題13:in the way people use their faces to express themselves. Easterners use the eyes more and the mouth 小題14: .
The difference in the use of text message "emoticons" (表情符號(hào))小題15: the idea. Easterners use the eyes to小題16: emotion, for example "^-^" for happy and "┬_┬" for sad. Westerners,小題17:, use the mouth, for example ":-)" for happy and ":-(" for sad.
The researchers said their results showed communication between people is much more小題18: than previously thought. When it 小題19: communicating emotions across cultures, Easterners and Westerners can find themselves小題20: in translation.

Every Christmas, we visit my parents who live nearly 400 miles away from us. It is always 9 to 10-hour drive, but we always try to make it because that’s the only time my parents get to see their grandchildren.
One year, I was the driver, my wife Adriana was in the passenger seat, my three kids----Jacob, Ethan and Caleb----sat in the back seat, and our dog Susie was placed by the kids’ feet.
That year, we traveled at night to avoid the heavy holiday traffic. We left the house at about 9:00 in the evening, so we could get to my parents’ house by about 6:00 the next morning.
The first three hours was fine. My wife and kids were all fast asleep, including Susie who was lying on Jacob’s lap. But by around 1 am, I was very sleepy. So I stopped at a small convenience store and tried to wake myself up with a cup of coffee. The coffee helped for several miles. But soon I was drifting in and out of sleep. I closed my eyes for what felt like a very short moment. What I didn’t know was that I was slowly driving towards the other lane and that a truck was coming quickly towards us.
I had fallen asleep at the wheel when Susie roughly woke me up by jumping onto my lap. When I opened my eyes, I saw the glaring headlights of the truck heading towards our car. I quickly drove the car back to our lane. I had narrowly missed hitting the truck and getting my family into what could have been a very serious accident.
I checked everyone to see if they were OK, and they were still fast asleep. I drove the rest of the distance very alert and awake. As soon as we got there, I told my wife, my kids and my parents what Susie had done and we could not have been more proud of our dog.
56. Why does the author visit his parents with his family every Christmas?
A. Because Christmas is the only time he can relax every year.
B. Because his parents don’t like the 400-mile travel.
C. Because he missed his parents very much.
D. Because his parents can only see their grandchildren at that time.
57. What did the author do to wake himself up during the journey?
A. He got off the car to breathe the fresh air.
B. He stopped to have a cup of coffee.
C. He talked with his wife and children.
D. He stopped every few miles.
58. It can be inferred from the passage that _____.
A. the author’s wife and kids had no idea about the narrow escape during the journey
B. the author was so frightened by the truck that he could hardly drive for the rest of the
journey
C. no one but Susie kept awake for the whole journey
D. the author had never experienced a car accident before
59. The passage tells us a story about ______.
A. a poor driver’s first driving experience
B. how the author’s family spent their Christmas
C. how a dog saved a whole family
D. the disadvantages of driving at night

Whenever the sun dropped and the blue sky came up, my father and I used to climb the mountain near my house. Walking together, my father and I used to have a lot of conversations through which I learned lessons from his experiences. He always told me, “You should have goals like climbing the mountain.” Without the mountain-climbing that we both enjoyed ,we couldn’t have enough time to spend together because my father was very busy. I really got a lot from mountain-climbing. It gave me time to talk with my father and to be in deep thought as well as develop my patience (耐力).
Once we climbed a very high mountain. It was so challenging for me because I was only ten years old. During the first few hours of climbing . I enjoyed the flowers and trees, and the birds’ singing, but as time passed, I got a pain in both of my legs. I wanted to quit climbing. In fact, I hated it at that mountain, but my father said to me, “You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain, but you can’t see it before you reach the top. Only there at the top, can you see all of the nice things, just like in life.”
At that time, I was too young to understand his words. But later after that, I got new hope and confidence. I found myself standing at the top of the sky, which was as clear as crystal (水晶).

Beliefs form a big part of our lives. Successful people have always believed that they can be and will be successful in their lives, such as Michael Phelps. Many of us have seen Michael Phelps win 8 gold medals in a single Olympic Games. That has created a history for himself. Many people have admired his success and the first reaction in their mind will be, “ Wow, how I wish I could be like him!” Have you ever wondered what brought him success?
In fact, anyone can achieve what they have wanted to achieve. It is about beliefs. Everyone is a born winner. It is this belief that drives an individual to be successful in his  or her own field. All successful individuals have strong beliefs and it is one of the bases  for their success. If we start to believe in ourselves, the things that we can achieve will definitely give us a pleasant surprise.
Other than having a strong belief, it is the attitude that drives the individual to create their own history. The devotion towards themselves and the drive must also be present. Imagine having a strong belief in oneself and having a poor attitude towards life. Then how would that individual turn out to be? One’s attitude comprises the drive, the devotion and the desire to achieve his goals. If one has strong beliefs about the goals that he can achieve and he displays good attitudes towards them, it would be no surprise to anyone that he will be able to achieve his goals.
Start believing in yourself and you will achieve your goals and with the right positive attitude, you will definitely be able to create the miracle that you have always dreamt of.

Do you have bright ideas? Ideas or inventions that change society or, at least, make life easier for somebody? Perhaps we all do sometimes, but we don’t often make the idea a reality. Recently, in Britain, there was a competition called British Designers for Tomorrow. The competition encourages young people to carry out their bright ideas. There were two groups in the contest: Group One was for schoolchildren under 16; Group Two was for schoolchildren over 16, and there were eleven prize-winners altogether.
Neil Hunt, one of the prize-winners, was called “Sunshine Superman(超人)”. It’s important when people study the weather to be able to record sunshine accurately. We need to know how many hours of sunshine we have and how strong it is. Most sunshine recorders only record direct sunlight. Neil’s is more accurate(精確的) and this is very important for research into the way of using solar(太陽(yáng)的)power.
You can do so much with animated(模擬有生命物體的)cartoon. Look at Simon West’s idea for animated road signs. He uses pictures which appear to move as you go nearer to or farther from them. This isn’t a new idea. But it is new to use these pictures on road signs. “We found that people were more likely to see moving signs,” said Simon. So now, you can really see rocks falling, trains moving , horses running or a car falling over the edge of a cliff(懸崖). Quite a warning!
The ideas in the competition were so inventive that we are surprised that British industry doesn’t ask more schoolchildren for suggestions. Perhaps this will be the start of “pupil power!”
61. The writer thinks that people seldom ______.
A. have bright ideas                            B. turn their bright ideas into reality
C. make their life easier                         D. think of inventing something
62. The organizers of the competition hoped the schoolchildren who joined in it would ___.
A. become good designers for future Britain      
B. invent something for immediate use
C. design something useful for the next day       
D. win as many prizes as they could
63. Neil Hunt’s design would finally lead to the improvement of the way of _______.
A. recording direct sunshine                       B. recording the hours of sunshine
C. using the energy of the sun              D. knowing how strong sunlight is
64. What’s the use of Simon West’s animated road signs?
A. To warn people to be careful while working.  
B. To warn people on the roads of the danger ahead.
C. To add to the beauty of a city.                       
D. To help make a car trip more exciting.
65. The writer seems to be encouraging the British industry to ______.
A. take better care of schoolchildren               
B. help schoolchildren in their studies
C. stop asking schoolchildren for suggestions                   
D. pay more attention to schoolchildren’s inventive power

.
Sometimes children do not do what their parents tell them to do. When this happens, a parent tries to help the child to do the right thing. When this does not work, the parent usually punishes the child.
There are many things that a parent can do. One thing that people have done is to spank (打屁股) the child. When a parent spanks a child, they will use their hand or a hard object to strike them on their bottom. This is meant to show the child that they have done something wrong.
One parent remembers being spanked when he was a child. His parents used a wooden spoon. When he spanked his own children with his hand, he saw that he put a red mark on his child’s leg. He never did that again.
One problem with spanking is that it teaches the child to hit someone when they do not like what the other person is doing. Another problem with spanking is that the parent is usually angry and can hit the child too hard. Sometimes parents will use spanking for everything and not try other ways to get the child to do the right thing.
Many parents are not sure of what to do instead of spanking. Some people think that their religion tells them that spanking is okay. Some think that the law lets them do it. The courts (法院) say that parents have the right to teach their children how to behave.
Other things should be tried before a parent decides to spank a child. Telling the child exactly what is wanted from them can be one thing. Giving a child more than one choice is another thing that can be tried. Getting down to the child’s level and taking a more child-friendly approach (方法) can help as well.
67. According to the passage, when children do something wrong, one thing that parents usually do to punish them is to ________.
A. strike them on the bottom
B. try to help them do the right thing
C. teach them what to do
D. take them to court
68. Which of the following is NOT the problem caused by spanking?
A. It teaches the child to hit others when they offend(使人不快) him or her.
B. The parent may get angry and hit the child too hard.
C. Sometimes parents may use spanking for everything.
D. It makes parents try other ways to make the child do right.
69. Which of the following can best describe the writer’s attitude towards spanking?
A. favorable (贊同的)   B. indifferent (不關(guān)心)
C. interested          D. unfavorable
70. From this passage, we can conclude that ________.
A. Good children always do the right thing.
B. Parents should try their best to avoid (避免) spanking their children.
C. Parents have no choice but to spank their children when they do something wrong.
D. Children can have more than one choice to avoid being spanked.
