单选题It’s not quite true that a great salesperson can sell anything to anyone. For a start, they might not need it -and selling is all about meeting needs.【C1】________, selling is one of those things that can happen to anyone, no【C2】________what their job description is, so here are the basics. STEP 1 Build trust You need to【C3】________trust with the person to whom you are selling. They don’t have to be your best friend but essentially people don’t buy from people they hate or distrust. STEP 2 Don’t misunderstand the customer Understand the needs of the other person. Then it’s up to the salesperson to demonstrate that the benefits of their goods or services match the requirements.

单选题Passage 2 For years and years people have been saying that the railways are dead. “We can do without railways,” people say, as if motorcars and planes made the railways unnecessary. We all keep hearing that trains are slow, that they lose money, and that they’re dying. But this is far from the truth. In these days when oil is expensive, the railways have become highly competitive with motorcars and planes. If you want to carry people or goods from place to place, they’re cheaper than planes.Railways have much in common with planes. A plane goes in a straight line and so does a railway. What is more, it takes you from the heart of a city into the heart of another. But a railway doesn’t leave you as a plane does, miles and miles away from the city center. It doesn’t hold you up as a motorcar does, in endless traffic jams. And a single train can carry goods which no plane or motorcar could ever do. Far from being dead, the railways are very much alive. Modern railway lines give you a smooth, untroubled journey. Where else can you eat well, sleep in comfort, feel safe and enjoy the scene while you are traveling at speed at the same time? And we are only at the beginning. We have entered the age of super fast trains, traveling at 150 miles an hour and more. Soon we will be wondering why we spend so much on motorways we can’t use because we don’t have enough money to buy oil and planes we can’t fly for the same reason.Some people think the railways are dead for many reasons except that ______.
单选题Everyone knows that laziness is a sin. We have probably all had lectures pointing out that laziness is immoral, wasteful, and that lazy people will never amount to anything in life. But laziness can be more harmful than that, and it is often caused by more complex reasons than simple wishes to avoid work. Some people who appear to be lazy are suffering from much more serious problems. They may be so distrustful of their fellow workers that they are unable to join in any group task for fear of ridicule or for fear of having their ideas stolen. These people who seem lazy may be paralyzed (丧失活动能力的) by a fear of failure that prevents fruitful work. Or other sorts of fantasies may prevent work; some people are so busy planning, sometimes planning great deals or fantastic achievements, that they are unable to deal with whatever “lesser” work is on hand. Still other people are not avoiding work; strictly speaking, they are merely procrastinating (拖延)—rescheduling their day. Laziness can actually be helpful. Like procrastinators, some people may look lazy when they are really thinking, planning, contemplating (深思) and researching. We all should remember that some great scientific discoveries occurred by chance or while some were “goofing off” (磨洋工). Newton wasn’t working in the orchard when the apple hit him and he discovered the law of universal gravitation. Sometimes, being “lazy”—that is, taking time off for a rest —is good for overworked students or executives. Taking a rest can be particularly helpful to the athlete who is trying too hard or the doctor who’s simply working himself overtime too many evenings at the clinic. So be careful when you are tempted to call someone lazy. That person may be thinking, resting, or planning his or her next book. The underlined word “that” in the first paragraph refers to “______”.
