填空题I never wanted to be anything but a broadcaster, a talker. And for 40 years, I"ve been doing just that. To me, the ability to talk well is one of the great pleasures in life and can bring with it some of life"s greatest rewards. I"m not saying it"s always easy. But the more you work at it, the easier it will be. To get you started, here are my six basic rules for learning how to talk to anyone, anything, anywhere: Don"t have to be quotable If you had seen my first morning in broadcasting, you would have surely believed that I was the last guy who"d survive, much less succeed, as a skillful talker. It happened at WAER, a small radio station in Miami Beach in 1957. The station"s general manager said he liked my voice, and one day he told me I had the job from Monday morning. I didn"t sleep that whole weekend. I kept practicing things to say. By Monday I was a basket case(精神极度紧张的人). The manager called me into his office to wish me good luck. And then I was on the air. Imagine me at 9 a.m. sitting in the broadcast room with a new song, Les Elgart"s "Swinging Down the Lane", ready to play. I started the song. Then I faded the music down so that I could talk. Only nothing came out. My mouth felt like cotton. The same thing happened a third time. Finally, the angry manager kicked open the door to the control room and shouted, "This is a communication"s business!" Then he turned and left, banging the door behind him. In that instant, I opened my mouth and said, "Good morning. This is my first day on the radio. I"ve been practicing all weekend. But my mouth is dry. I"m nervous. The general manager kicked open the door and said, "This is a communication"s business."" I wasn"t exactly quotable that morning, but I was able to get something out by telling my listeners about the trouble I was in that gave me confidence to continue the rest of the show—as well as my career—went fine. Attitude Counts After that failure in Miami, I made a commitment to keep talking even when it might not be comfortable—in other words, to work at it. The right attitude—the will to talk—is decisive to becoming a better talker. I think one reason I"ve had a certain amount of success in broadcasting is that the audience can see I love what I"m doing. You can"t pretend that. Remember to Listen Careful listening makes you a better talker. Good follow-up questions are the mark of a good conversationalist. In fact, I have an important rule that I remind myself every morning: Nothing I say this day will teach me anything. So if I"m going to learn, I have to do it by listening. Broaden Your Horizens The best conversationalist are able to talk about issues and experiences beyond their own daily lives. You can expand your world through travel, but you can also do it without leaving your own backyard. Talking with people who have backgrounds different from your own can help improve your conversational skills and your thinking. Keep It Light One of my most important rules of conversation is never to say too serious for too long. Similarly, a key quality I look for in a potential guest is a sense of humor. If the guest is not afraid of making fun of himself/herself, it is most appealing to the audience. Be Genuine Anybody I"ve ever talked to for more than a few minutes knows at least two things about me: I"m from Brooklyn, New York, and I"m Jewish. That"s because I"m deeply proud of both. You should be as open and honest with your conversational partners as you"d want them to be with you, willing to reveal what your background is and what your likes and dislikes are. That"s part of the give-and-take of conversation, part of getting to know people. As for myself, I learned something critical after surviving that case of "cotton-mouth fear" on my first day of broadcasting: Be honest, and you won"t go wrong. Whether you"re talking to one person or a million, the rules are the same: It"s all about making a connection. Be able to share others" feelings, show enthusiasm and willingness to listen, and you can become a master of talk.

填空题Wise buying is a positive way in which you can make your money go further. The way you go about purchasing an article or a service can actually 1 you money or can add to the cost. Take the 2 example of a hairdryer. If you are baying a hairdryer, you might think that you are making the 3 buy if you choose one whose look you like and which is also the cheapest 4 price. But when you get it home you may find that it takes twice as long as a more expensive 5 to dry your hair. The cost of the electricity plus the cost of your time could well make your hairdryer the most expensive one of all. So what principles should you 6 when you go out shopping? If you keep your home, your car or any valuable 7 in excellent condition, you"ll be saving money in the long run. Before you buy a new 8 , talk to someone who owns one.

填空题Directions: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for each item on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.When we think of green buildings, we tend to think of new ones–the kind of high-tech, solar-paneled masterpieces that make the covers of architecture magazines. But the U.S. has more than 100 million existing homes, and it would be {{U}} {{U}} 1 {{/U}} {{/U}}wasteful to tear them all down and {{U}} {{U}} 2 {{/U}} {{/U}}them with greener versions. An enormous amount of energy and resources went into the construction of those houses. And it would take an average of 65 years for the {{U}} {{U}} 3 {{/U}} {{/U}}carbon emissions from a new energy-efficient home to make up for the resources lost by destroying an old one. So in the broadest {{U}} {{U}} 4 {{/U}} {{/U}}, the greenest home is the one that has already been built. But at the same time, nearly half of U.S. carbon emissions come from heating, cooling and {{U}} {{U}} 5 {{/U}} {{/U}}our homes, offices and other buildings. "You can't deal with climate change without dealing with existing buildings," says Richard Moe, the president of the National Trust. With some {{U}} {{U}} 6 {{/U}} {{/U}}, the oldest homes tend to be the least energy-efficient. Houses built before 1939 use about 50% more energy per square foot than those built after 2000, mainly due to the tiny cracks and gaps that {{U}} {{U}} 7 {{/U}} {{/U}}over time and let in more outside air. Fortunately, there are a {{U}} {{U}} 8 {{/U}} {{/U}}number of relatively simple changes that can green older homes, from {{U}} {{U}} 9 {{/U}} {{/U}}ones like Lincoln's Cottage to your own postwar home. And efficiency upgrades (升级) can save more than just the earth; they can help {{U}} {{U}} 10 {{/U}} {{/U}}property owners from rising power costs.

填空题Spring is a delightful season. The temperatures are 1 , and the blooming trees and flowers make the city bright 2 . This is the time when we can begin to wear lighter and more brightly colored cloth and go 3 more often. Small children like to bring their kites out to square in the city and field in the suburb. Also, this is the season for the grave cleaning day when we go to 4 our past generations. I enjoy going back to the village on this 5 after being in the city for the winter months.
