单选题{{B}}Text 1{{/B}} It is all very well to blame traffic jams, the cost of petrol and the quick pace of modern life, but manners on the roads are becoming horrible. Everybody knows that the nicest men become monsters behind the wheel. It is all very well, again, to have a tiger in the tank, but to have one in the driver's seat is another matter altogether. You might tolerate the odd road-hog, the rude and inconsiderate driver, but nowadays the well-mannered motorist is the exception to the rule. Perhaps the situation calls for a "Be Kind to Other Drivers" campaign, otherwise it may get completely out of hand. Road politeness is not only good manners, but good sense too. It takes the most cool-headed and good-tempered of drivers to resist the temptation to revenge when subjected to uncivilized behavior. On the other hand, a little politeness goes a long way towards relieving the tensions of motoring. A friendly nod or a wave of acknowledgement in response to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of goodwill and tolerance so necessary in modern traffic conditions. But such acknowledgements of politeness are all too rare today. Many drivers nowadays don't even seem able to recognize politeness when they see it. However, misplaced politeness can also be dangerous. Typical examples are the driver who brakes violently to allow a car to emerge from a side street at some hazard to following traffic, when a few seconds later the road would be clear anyway; or the man who waves a child across a zebra crossing into the path of on-coming vehicles that may be unable to stop in time. The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever they care to. It always amazes me that the highways are not covered with the dead bodies of these grannies. A veteran driver, whose manners are faultless, told me it would help if motorists learnt to filter correctly into traffic streams one at a time without causing the total blockages that give rise to bad temper. Unfortunately, modern motorists can't even learn to drive, let alone master the subtler aspects of roadmanship. Years ago the experts warned us that the car-ownership explosion would demand a lot more give-and-take from all road users. It is high time for all of us to take this message to heart.

单选题Stark: I like my working place. There I can meet so many people. I like talking to people, listening to their problems. Some of my regulars are always on the lookout for ways that they can stump me. He didn''t think I know how to make it. Hah! But I know how to make every drink in the book, and then some. Although some of the nights when I go in I just don''t feel like dealing with all the noise, when I get in a big crowd, it''s just cheerful to look at those familiar faces. Taft: If I had to sit behind a desk all day, I''d go crazy! Fortunately, I don''t have to do so. My job keeps me moving. My favorite part is picking out the music — I use new music for every ten-week session. For my last class I always use the Beatles — it''s a great beat to move to, and everybody loves them. I like to sort of educated people about their bodies, and show them, you know, how to do the exercises and movements safely. Frances: I''m always working against a tight deadline. I don''t like the business end of it — you know, contacting clients for work, negotiating contracts, which get long and complicated. You''ve got to be on the stretch all the time. Sometimes it can drive you crazy. Rhondda: I like working in my studio. All my tools are like toys to me — you know, my watercolors, pen and inks, colored pencils, drafting table — I love playing with them, and I have lots of different kinds of clients — I do magazines, book covers, album covers, newspaper articles — so I never feel dull. You know, sometimes when I start working on a project I could be doing it for hours and have no conception of how much time has gone by — what some people call a flow experience. Hovey: At first it was fun, because there was so much to learn, and working with figures and money was interesting. But after about two years the thrill was gone. I keep the books, do the payroll, pay the taxes, pay the insurance, pay the bills. Everything goes on the same way day after day. Now I feel rather dull to do all these. I especially hate to have to remember when all the bills and taxes are due and keep up to date on all the latest tax forms. Now match each of the people to the appropriate statement. Note: There are two extra statements. Statements A. I don''t like the pressure of my job. B. I like being out around people. C. I like the creativity and variety of my job. D. My job is just like playing. E. I learned a lot from my job. F. My job is rather routine. G. I''m really glad I have a job where I can keep moving.
