Which of the following reflexive pronouns(反身代词)is used as an appositive(同位语)?(2013)
All you do now is _______ the housework before your mom arrives home.
(1)You have been at Furnell University for two weeks now. As usual, you need enough time to sleep and eat. You also want to spend time with your new friends and get some exercise. But, after the first two weeks of classes, you have probably concluded that there isn't enough time to do all these things, because you also have to attend classes, go to labs, do assignments and write papers. (2)Soon you will be in a situation like this one: You are going to have a quiz in your ten o'clock class. You studied for it until 3 a.m. You also have an eight o'clock class. Should you sleep late and skip the eight o'clock class? (3)To some extent the answer depends on the professor of the course. Some instructors announce that they require attendance. In that case you really should go to class. Some don't say anything. In that case you have to decide. Once in a while it is better to stay in bed and sleep than to get so tired you cannot think. However, it is not a good idea to skip class more than a few times. (4)If you have to skip a class, ask another student for the class notes, announcements and the assignments. Also, come to the next class prepared. If you miss class because you are sick, tell the instructor afterwards. He or she may let you make up the work. If you have an important appointment, tell the instructor about it before you miss the class. (5)Here is another common problem. You took the quiz. Even after studying very hard, you could not answer all the questions. In high school you always got every answer right. What went wrong? Nothing. High school work is easy, so a good student is supposed to get a perfect score. In college the teacher wants to challenge even the best students. Therefore, almost nobody answers every question correctly. (6)But maybe there were some very basic ideas in that course you did not understand. Go see the teacher during his or her office hours. Most teachers will gladly explain things again. Of course, they will not be pleased to repeat what they said in class to someone who skipped class. (7)Maybe you really should get up for that eight o'clock class!

Executive coaching is primarily concerned with confidential one-to-one discussions between the coach and the executive. It is aimed at performance improvement. Primary needs are diagnosed and agreed upon, a "developmental-action plan" is drawn up, the skill base of the executive is broadened by coaching, and then the new skill sets are tested in the workplace under the guidance of the coach. Sometimes, these needs involve team coaching, but individual coaching is the normal starting point. The coach needs to guide the executive outside his or her comfort zone in order to improve performance. A coaching assignment normally focuses on two or three developmental needs of the individual, and lasts for 6 to 12 months. However, it sometimes involves multiple assignments aimed at bringing about cultural change in an organization. For example, a new chief executive may want to change the culture of his organization. He could then hire a coach, and brief him or her to change the mindset of his direct subordinates on a one-to-one basis. Compared with traditional management training, which is typically related to broadbased organizational change, sometimes of a technical nature, executive coaching is targeted to individual and small-group change. The primary focus of coaching is often behavioural and leadership change, and is rarely of a technical nature. The difference between coaching and training is that coaching is one-to-one, highly confidential and over 6-12 months, whereas training is typically of a short-term, group-work-shop nature. Referring to the key ingredients for enhanced performance and team success, business coaching has a lot to learn from sports. According to sports coaches, a coach is a catalyst for change, and is not paid to preserve the status quo, but to lift people out of their comfort zone, so that they grow and develop. The coach must stay in touch with the state of the art and extract from it what is relevant. All sports coaches believe passionately in the power of the team to lift performance not by just a little, but by 100% . Considerable energy is devoted to defining goals, roles, a code of conduct and to fostering group dynamics in order to optimize team productivity. Both success and failure are learning opportunities, and there is a severity in their cold-eyed, weekly analysis, which business has yet to develop. Top athletes scrutinize both success and failure with their coach to extract lessons from them, but they are never distracted from longer-term goals. To be a champion athlete means developing an elitist attitude—not involving arrogance, but rather an unceasing desire to learn and improve. They never accept second best, but always strive for what has not yet been achieved. There must be a sport/life balance, so that athletes are not obsessed by their goals, and thus lack a sense of perspective to cope with inevitable failure or occasional success，or the ability to recharge their batteries outside the sporting arena.

The food is good at this hotel, but the____is poor; the waiters don't seem to be well trained.(2012-74)
A. fact B. continuously C. ignore D. when E. much F. shows G. prevented H. plays I. limited J. unconsciously K. data L. unpredictable M. tools N. attend O. because In recent decades, scientists have become increasingly aware of the part the observer 【C1】______ in the scientific process. In the first place, the observer can work only with his experiences, and these are【C2】______ by his senses and the instruments he uses to extend his senses. Ultraviolet light, electromagnetic fields, and atomic particles, for example, became known to us only as we devised【C3】______ with which we could observe their effects. Consequently, our picture of the real world is always incomplete. Secondly, the observer is highly selective in choosing his【C4】______. Life is a narrative of ever new and often【C5】______ events. At any given moment, an individual is bombarded with sense experiences and can, if he desires, expose himself to more. But he is really interested in or concerned with only a few of these. Other experiences are consciously or【C6】______ screened out as irrelevant to the task at hand. For example, as we read a book, we are often surrounded by sounds and activities that we【C7】______, but by turning our attention to them we become conscious of their presence. What a scientist discovers depends, to a great extent, on what he is looking for— on the questions he is asking. Thus, academic disciplines differ in their study of human beings in large part【C8】______ they ask different questions. Human beings live, so to speak, in a house with only a few windows of tinted and curved glass, through which we see the outside world. The glass colors and distorts our observations, and its effects can be determined only with【C9】______ difficulty. Scientists are increasingly aware of the 【C10】______ that they work with sense data, not with the world itself.
