A

It was the small hours of the morning when we reached London Airport. I had cabled London from Amsterdam, and there was a hired car to meet, but there was one more unfortunate happening before I reached my flat. In all my travels I have never, but for that once, been required by the British customs to open a single bag or to do more than state that I carried no goods liable to duty. It was, of course, my fault; the extreme tiredness and nervous tension of the journey had destroyed my diplomacy. I was, for whichever reason, so tired that I could hardly stand, and to the question, “have you read this?” I replied with extreme foolishness, “yes, hundreds of times.”

“And you have nothing to declare?”

“Nothing.”

“How long have you been out of this country?”

“About three months.”

“And during that time you have acquired nothing?”

“Nothing but what is on the list I have given you.”

He seemed momentarily at a loss, but then he attacked. The attack, when it came, was utterly unexpected.

I explained, but I had already lost face. I produced my own watch from a pocket, and added that I should be grateful if he would confiscate (没收) the replacement.

“It is not a question of confiscation,” he said, “there is a fine for failing to declare dutiable goods. And now may I please examine that Rolex?”

It took another quarter of an hour to persuade him that the Rolex was not contraband (走私货). Just when I let out a sigh of relief, he began to search my luggage!

56. When did the writer arrive at London Airport?

A. In the early morning. B. Late at night.

C. At noon. D. Late in the morning.

57. What can we conclude from the questions asked by the customs officer?

A. He was just doing his duty by asking the passenger some usual questions.

B. He must have noticed the writer's ugly watch.

C. He wanted to embarrass the writer.

D. He must have noticed the writer's tiredness.

58. What did the writer think of the watch he bought in the market?

A. He was fond of the watch because it was a Rolex.

B. He found the watch useful though it was very cheap.

C. He didn't like the watch at all.

D. He was interested in the watch.

59. After reading the story we can infer that the writer _______.

A. knew little about the customs regulations

B. must have spent a long time at the customs and have been let go without any punishment

C. must have been fined because of carrying many contraband goods

D. must have failed in catching the hired car

B

All presentations should include the beginning, the middle, and the end. The first part of your presentation should always present the problem. The middle of the presentation should present your key findings. By the end of the presentation, your audience should have a better understanding of the solution.

Less is more.

There’s a tendency to make a presentation slide excessively complicated with flashy images, strange transitions, and too much text. These features are often unnecessary, and tend to make the viewers get bored. Instead, keep each slide short and plain, using one image to sell your idea. Using bullets (圆形符号) is a bit of a cliché (陈词滥调), but if you must use them, never exceed (超过) more than one line of text per bullet.

Branding is the key.

Whether you’re stating a new business idea to investors or describing a new product to customers, you’ll want your presentation to reinforce your brand’s image. Use the same color schemes, fonts (字体), and logos that you use on your website or company literature. There’s an assumption of what a Power Point is supposed to look like, and company standards falls through the floor.

Give them a break.

According to a recent research, the average adult attention span for a presentation is just 20 minutes. It’s always best to keep your presentation short and to the point, but if you must exceed the recommended 20 minutes, try giving your audience a moment to relax. “You can extend attention spans by giving your audience a rest,” the study says. This can be done by telling a story, giving a demo, or doing something else that gives the brain a break.

Practice it again and again.

In the end, a great presentation will come down to the speaker’s ability to capture the audience’s imagination and keep their attention. The presentation and the speaker should work together and they can be complementary (相互补充的) to each other. The best presenters won’t have to look down at the notes and will never be reading from a script. A good speaker can focus on the key points and convey information well.

61. How can you make a presentation slide not too complicated?

A. By keeping each slide short and plain.

B. By using flashy images and much text.

C. By using more than one line of text per bullet.

D. By using more than one image to show your idea.

62. Why should you use the same color schemes, fonts, and logos in your presentation?

A. To describe your ideas clearly. B. To reinforce your brand’s image.

C. To make a contrast with new images. D. To make investors remember your ideas.63. According to the passage, a good presenter always _______.

A. looks down at notes from time to time

B. takes a break in the process of presenting

C. keeps his presentation beyond 20 minutes

D. catches the audience’s imagination and attention

C

For many years there’s been a debate about rewarding our children. Does it work? Is it effective?

Some people think we should establish a standard with our kids and give them something for meeting this standard as a reward. Punishment is given out in much the same way, but it’s used when certain standards of performance, behavior, etc. have not been met. Kids will often become more dutiful when threatened with punishment, and work harder when promised a valuable reward. The problem is what happens when you aren’t around.

To develop responsible, self-disciplined (自律的) kids, parents need to promote certain ideas. One of these ideas is that everyone pitches in (努力投入) and helps in your family, even if someone is not crazy about helping. Another idea is that there can be enjoyment in doing any task if we choose to make it so. When a task is for a worthy cause (our family can enjoy the house more because I have helped clean it), and when parents are cheerful about their chores, this message can have a big impact.

This is how we help our kids develop a sense of responsibility. When our children develop this responsibility, they’ll be more disciplined, and they’ll control their emotions better. When we give rewards to our kids, we reduce the sense of responsibility. We also create children who may temporarily perform to a certain standard, but who aren’t likely to continue the performance without the carrot hanging in front of them.

“Rewards and punishment can change behavior for a while, but they cannot change the person who engages in the behavior, at least in the way we want,” said Alfie Kohn, author of Punished by Rewards. “Good values have to be grown from the inside out.” Parents can help give their children a sense of shared responsibility and discipline which can last a lifetime. The real rewards that your children receive will be their readiness for the complex and demanding world that waits for them? a world that rewards those who have learned the secrets of discipline and responsibility. So keep those shiny rewarding to yourself, and _______________.

66. According to the passage, when children are threatened with punishment, .

A. they may lose interest in their work B. they may appear to be well-behaved

C. they may change to another person D. the results will be worse than usual

67. What can we know from Paragraph 3?

A. Parents should promote certain ideas to help children develop.

B. Children should be responsible for their discipline.

C. Children should help build a good family atmosphere.

D. No children will adapt to society without their parents’ help.

68. Which of the following sentences can be used to end this passage?

A. let your kids find their own rewards B. allow your kids to enjoy their punishment

C. prevent your kids from failing D. persuade your kids into accepting who they are

69. According to the passage, Alfie Kohn would agree that parents should .

A. pay no attention to the way their children do things

B. never punish their children

C. show their children how to behave by example

D. help their children establish good values

70. What’s the best title for the passage?

A. Do You Often Reward Your Children?

B. Should Parents Reward Their Children?

C. When Should Parents Reward Their Children?

D. What Can Parents Reward Their Children with?
