填空题All Thumbs The thumb shaped the human hand. Without it, man might not have survived. Luckily, the hand developed only one thumb. Two thumbs on the hand would be like having two or more cooks in a small kitchen. There are days when this happens to all of us, days when everything we do seems to go wrong. We cannot even get the fight shoe on. The typist cannot hit the right key. The carpenter’s hammer misses the nail and hits his finger. Nothing can be done but throw upon one’s hands and moan, "God, I am all thumbs today." Achilles Heel This is the story-Homer tells in the Iliad. Achilles’ mother bathed him as a baby in the River Styx to make him immortal, deathless like a god. But she held him by the heel and it didn’t get wet. The heel, therefore, was the one spot where Achilles could be hurt, possibly killed. And so he was in the Trojan war. None of the weapons was able to hurt Achilles. The god Apollo, however, knew of Achilles’ weak spot and told Paris about it. Paris then shot an arrow at Achilles’ heel and killed him. Skin of my teeth The character of Job in the Bible will never be forgotten. People everywhere will remember him as a man who suffered every misfortune, but stood firm in his faith and belief in God. Everything, everybody turned against him. "I escaped," says Job, "by the skin of my teeth". This expression has puzzled many people because there is no skin on one’s teeth. However, that makes little difference. The phrase used by Job is a powerful one, describing how near he was to be totally destroyed. So, can you find another phrase whose meaning is close to this one? Stiff upper lip In the early days of the Second World War, the civilian population of England lived through terror and destruction. Nazi bombs rained down with little mercy; London burned from end to end. But the spirit of the people never broke. They were urged by theft leaders to "keep a still lip". And so they did, and won the respect and admiration of the entire world. After reading the passage, what do you think the phrase means? To pull a boner This phrase comes from the old American minstrel shows. There were two men in these shows who were called Mr. Bones, because they carded two small sticks of bone that they used as instruments. They were asked questions by one of the other men in the show just to get stupid but funny answers. This became known as "pull boners". But in time the expression meant something more than getting an answer to make you laugh. It meant something more serious. Can you guess what this phrase means? Now match each of the idioms with the appropriate statement. Note: there are two extra statements. Statements A. weak point B. lightening missed me by a hair C. a man who can"t get anything fight D. something not existing E. to keep oneself under control in the face of disaster F. to do funny silly things G. a bad blunder, a mistake that is costly

填空题 {{B}} Yang Yuanqing:{{/B}} After graduating from the China Science and Technology University in 1989, Yang Yuanqing joined the Legend Group. Still a young man at 36, Yang is in the vanguard of the Chinese computer industry as the vicechairman of the Legend Group and general manager of the Legend Computer Co. "The personal computer is a portal to the Internet," says Yang in response to claims of a "post-PC era" sweeping through the information industry. According to these claims, the IT focus is shifting towards networks and PC manufacturing is in danger of declining. Though few people doubt the staying power of Leg end, not everyone agrees with Yang's belief in the importance of continued PC development.{{B}} Zhang Xianghui:{{/B}} During his five years with Microsoft (China), Zhang had led teams in the development of more than 100 Chinese versions of major software packages, such as Windows 95, Windows 98, Office 95, Office 97,and the upcoming Windows 2000. Perhaps his most outstanding achievement has been the Venus Plan, which is expected to ignite a major revolution in the home computer field. If a consumer doesn't read English or has a low educational level, the Internet is virtually inaccessible. But the Venus Plan is poised to change all that by giving Chinese speakers direct access to the Internet. Industry experts believe the move will transform the structure of Internet use in China.{{B}} Sa Qiqiang:{{/B}} Su Qiqiaug is a co-founder of the Lianbang Software and User's Friend. When Su set up Federal Soft ware in 1994 and initiated the industry's first chain marketing strategy, he had no idea that he was rewriting the layout of the domestic software markets and giving a needed shot-in-the-arm to the development of software industries. In 1999, Su did it again. His first investment in E-commerce, 8848. net, had also proven a successful story. Since it first went online in March of last year,8848, net has become the busiest Chinese E-commerce site.{{B}} Jiang Kan:{{/B}} Most people know him as a leading comic often features on television and radio. Few people realize the he is also paving new roads through cyberspace.

Note: there are two extra statements.{{/I}}{{B}}Statements{{/B}} [A] With the idea of chain marketing strategy, he rewrote China's software markets and set a busiest Chinese E-commerce site.

填空题Erum Nadeem Your article on happiness lifted my spirits. There is one very interesting aspect to note: the eight steps to happiness listed on pages 32-33 may as well be translations of the values of our cultural tradition. If people would see our values from these aspects, there would be no misunderstanding—only happiness. Sander Tideman I applaud your special on the science of happiness. However, the issue would have been more complete had it mentioned the idea of viewing economic development policies in the context of "gross national happiness" or GNH. This concept is based on the recognition that gross national product does not accurately reflect the well-being of a nation. GNH is a bold idea with far-reaching effects. Since happiness has a scientific base, it can be developed and promoted on a larger social scale. Paul Aboh Happiness is a gift, not a commodity. Even the poor have the ability to cultivate and share happiness. We can find pleasure in the small things we often take for granted—a smile, a helping hand, a kiss, a wave, a pat on the back, a glass of water and a promise kept. And when you discover its source, you know it. Sometimes happiness overflows, but it never destroys. Mansoor Malik Happiness is not a product of achievement or wealth or fame. It is the reaction of our mind to the environment. Faith in the values of our long-cherished cultural tradition is a source of well-being. Happiness comes from caring for others and giving whatever we can—help, hope, love, respect, sympathy or just a smile. Peter Fischer At a time when there seem to be so many reasons for being unhappy, I appreciated your special report on happiness. Surely the poorest kids in Africa who are without parents and are often hungry are the ones with the most reasons to be unhappy. What can possibly make them smile? As your article pointed out, however, we cannot wait for enough friends or a lot of money to make us happy. We have an amazing capacity to set ourselves right. Now match the name of each person (61 to 65)to the appropriate statement. Note: there are two extra statements. Statements[A] A rich person is not necessarily happy.[B] Things people often overlook may be the very source of happiness.[C] Happiness can be promoted on a scientific basis.[D] We should mainly rely on ourselves for happiness.[E] Happiness lies in giving instead of taking. [F] The environment is a source of happiness. [G] Happiness can be achieved if we stick to the best of our values.

填空题 Article One: Eliminate as many sources of stress as you can. For example, if crowds bother you, go to the supermarket when you know the lines won't be too long. Try renting videotapes rather than going to crowded movie theaters. Clear up the clutter in your life by giving away or throwing away the things that get in your way. A garage sale is one effective way to do this. Article Two: If you are always running late, sit down with a pencil and paper and see how you are actually allot ting your time. Say it takes you 40 minutes to get to work. Are you leaving your house on time? You may be able to solve your problem(and de-stress your life a hit)just by being realistic. If you can't find the time for all the activities that are important to you, maybe you are trying to do too much. Again, make a list of what you do during the day and how much each activity takes. Then cut back. Article Three: If you feel stress(or anything else.is getting the better of you, seek professional help--a doctor or therapist. Early signs of excess stress are loss of a sense of well-being and reluctance to get up in the morning to face another day. Article Four: If you can't remove the stress, remove yourself. Slip away once in a while for some private time. These quiet moments may give you a fresh perspective on your problems. Avoid stressful people. For example, if you don't get along with your father-in-law but you don't want to make an issue of it, invite other in-laws at the same time you invite him. Having other people around will absorb some of the pressure you would normally feel. Article Five: Competing with others, whether in accomplishments, appearance, or possessions, is an avoidable source of stress. You might know people who do all they can to provoke envy in others. While it may seem easy to say you should be satisfied with what you have, it's the truth. Stress from this kind of jealousy is self-inflicted. Now match each of the articles to the appropriate statement. Note: there are two extra statements.{{B}} Statements{{/B}} A. One thing at a time. B. Reserve time for solitude and avoid stressful people. C. Avoid self-inflicted stress. D. Manage your time according to your priorities and available time. E. Avoid stressful circumstances. F. Learn to idle time away. G. Seek professional help when early signs of stress arise.

填空题 Jennifer The greenhouse effect might be causing the change, but it's a cycle that's been tracked for about a hundred years and in the past 20 years or so it just stopped cycling. And this is only affecting a small part of the world, People talk about greenhouse effect because they want to show how much concern they have about the future of the world. Don't be as silly as them. Carl: Spring just hits here, too. It's so nice--windows open, the fresh air of changing seasons just lights me up. When I was younger this was the season for walking through the melting snow and ice, across roadsides, through square acre forests among the fields. I get so excited to be out in the wild. It's tough to be in the city this time of year. Maybe I'll go camping soon! Susan: In the city you don't have seasons. Spring rain does not make man-made structure grow, and wet roads are not inconvenient for you because you can move around hi your car. Summer's heat is no longer a problem and air-conditioning makes your rooms cool as autumn. The colors of the city don't change because nature is not powerful enough to change them as she changes the color of woods. Winter snow leaves nothing white but muddy roads. Harold: Snow in Georgia is a funny thing. We have been having 24 hours/day weather news on the TV for the past week, just because there is a threat of snow. Schools have closed based on these predictions, and all we got was rain. But the rule is that if it sticks to the ground, school is canceled. It would be a great excuse to get the day off. People rush to the grocery store to buy milk and bread -- I don't know why, but they do. When I was growing up here we used to get 1 or 2 big snowfalls a year, but there has not been any for the last few. Damn global warming. Mike: It's been so nice. I am of the firm belief that in February we get the day like cool autumn season in November... In February it's like a warm period that's been getting stronger and longer every year since my boyhood, and it gets defeated by the final blowing snowstorm of March at least once, but anyone can survive those snowstorms, since we all know they'll be gone in a few days. Now match each of the persons (61 to 65) to the appropriate statement. Note: there are two extra statements.Statements[A] Future is bright.[B] In the city we can hardly touch nature.[C] We can see the greenhouse effect on the climate.[D] Human beings have to struggle hard against weather.[E] The call of nature is there.[F] He hates spring.[G] Sometimes we worry too much about nothing.

填空题Paragraph 1 A teacher or lecturer recommends a student to read the book which may contain useful information about the topic being studied or it may be invaluable for the ideas or views that puts forward, and so on. In many cases, the teacher doesn't suggest that the whole book should be read. In fact, he may just refer to a few pages which have a direct bearing on the matter being discussed.Paragraph 2 Learners of English usually find that writing is the hardest and the most energy-consuming task. The majority of native speakers of English have to make an effort to write accurately and effectively even on those subjects which they know very well. The non-native learner, then, is trying to do something that the average native speaker often finds difficult himself.Paragraph 3 Students, however, often work out a sentence in their own language and then try to translate it in this way. The result is that very often the reader simply cannot understand what the student has written. The individual words, or odd phrases, may make sense but the sentence as a whole makes nonsense. The student should always try to use sentence patterns which be knows are correct English.Paragraph 4 Many students seem to think that brevity is suspect. It is, on the contrary, a quality which is much admired in English. Most readers understand that a difficult subject can only be written up simple if the writer understands it very well. A student should, therefore, organize all his points very carefully before he starts to write. Paragraph 5 Non-native speakers of English, like their native counterparts, usually find that the opportunity to participate in group discussions is one of the most valuable aspects in their whole academic program. But in order to obtain full value from this type of activity the student must be proficient in asking questions, If he isn't, then any attempt to resolve his difficulties may lead to further confusion, if not considerable embarrassment. Now match each of the paragraphs (61 to 65 ) to the appropriate topic. Note: there are two extra topics.Statements A. Why does a student come to the library. B. Taking part in group discussions. C. How to write a correct sentence. D. Reading for a particular purpose. E. You may write one sentence ff you understand it. F. Simplicity-a quality much admired. G. Writing is the most difficult skill.

填空题Willa I think that the key to a good manager lie in raw brainpower. I graded students on how smart they are expecting the ones with the highest marks to be the biggest successes in the business world. And I think the role of business schools is to teach future managers every aspect of business and only business: how to define problems, analyze them, identify alternatives in a clear and good logical fashion, and finally, how to make an intelligent decision. Ryland My thinking gradually changed, over years of living and working outside the United States, and by serving seven years as president of a business school, As I gained real-life, first-hand experience with various difficulties lying in wait for even the smartest and best-trained managers, I found myself with one ability that I felt a good manager must possess--and that is seldom taught in business school. The ability is to express yourself in a clear, expressive fashion. Good oral and written communication skills are absolutely essential to effective management. A good manager must possess that special set of qualities called leadership skills. To be a good leader you must be sensitive to people and be able to inspire them toward the achievement of common goals. Lovell Many business schools continue to focus almost exclusively on the development of analytical skills. As a result, these schools are continuing to turn out large numbers of graduates who know all about analyzing strategies and balance sheets, but who still don' t know other subjects. I concluded that effective managers must be multicolored human beings who not only understand the world of business, but also have a sense of the culture, social, political, historical, and (particularly today) the international aspects of life and society. This suggests that a large dose of the liberal arts and humanities should be part of every manager's education. Colvin Further, a good manager in today's world must have courage and strong sense of honesty. He or she must know where to draw the line on self-over enjoyment and quick profits, recognize what' s right and wrong and then stick to what' s right. That can be extremely difficult. Drawing the line in a corporate setting sometimes involves choosing between what appear to be conflicting "rights". For example, if you have to decide whether or not to close a factory with a lot of problems, whose interests should prevail? Those of the owners? Of the employees? Of the customers? What about those of the community where the factory is located? It's a tough nut to crack. And the typical manager's career is full of hundreds of them. Making the right choice in situations such as these clearly demands honesty--and the courage to follow where one's honesty leads. Alexander As a practical matter, of course, a good manager must possess the ability to make positive things happen. It is this characteristic, more than any other, that makes a truly successful manager. One dependable manager who can make the right things happen in a timely fashion is worth far more to a company than any number of brilliant, highly-educated executives who can plan and analyze to beat the band but who never get anything carried out. The most valuable manager is the one who says "1 can do it"--and then does. Now match each of the experts( 16 to 20)to the appropriate statement. Note: there are two extra statements. A. Expressing oneself well is vital to a good manager. B. A clear distinction between right and wrong is vital to a good manager. C. Intelligence is the foundation of a good manager. D. The best way to learn management is to manage. E. A good manager should know what he doesn't know. F. Actions speak louder than words. G. A little knowledge is a dangerous thing.
