填空题Directions: You are going to read a passage. Seven
sentences have been removed from it. Choose from the sentences A-H the one which
fits each gap. There is one extra sentence which you do not need to
use.Questions 72-78 are based on the following
passage. Training is a costly exercise for any
organization to undertake. It requires much though, the establishment of a
regular training system, {{U}} {{U}} 1 {{/U}} {{/U}}. Employees
undergoing it lose production time. There are, however,
positive benefits to be gained; the obvious ones are that production will be
more efficient, materials will not be wasted, and machinery will not be damaged.
Good products, resulting from training, {{U}} {{U}} 2 {{/U}}
{{/U}}. Some aspects of training benefit both the company and the
individual worker. The achievement of good performance, for example, raises
staff morale and cuts down aggravation. An increase in job satisfaction,
{{U}} {{U}} 3 {{/U}} {{/U}}, will also be of benefit in reducing
staff turnover. Training may also result in a more flexible workforce, {{U}}
{{U}} 4 {{/U}} {{/U}}. This brings the possibility of greater
efficiency for the supervisor's planning and more interest for the
worker. The employee can see positive benefits to be gained
from undergoing training. He will more quickly become an experienced worker and
so be able to achieve bonuses and/or promotion. {{U}} {{U}} 5
{{/U}} {{/U}}. A feeling of well-being results from acquiring skill and
knowledge, and in turn being able to pass these to less experienced staff. As a
motivator, successful training is very strong particularly where it leads to
more money or status. For the full rewards of training to be
gained, by both management and work force, {{U}} {{U}} 6
{{/U}} {{/U}}. Above all, a newly trained employee must be given opportunity,
to use the newly acquired abilities under actual work conditions. Immediate
practice and reinforcement will build on the basis of training already given, so
increasing the benefits. This also adds to the general image of the company as a
sensible caring organization, eager to make the best of their work force, and to
offer opportunities. {{U}} {{U}} 7 {{/U}} {{/U}}, less stress,
reduced staff turnover, more profit, increased customer satisfaction and
expansion, then the costs will be more than justified.
Sentences: A. it is essential that systematic
planning be carried out B. It costs a lot of money of the
company. C. If the financial investment in training made by the
organization results in increased efficiency D. the preparation
of trainers and allocation of their time E. Worries about the
job will diminish as confidence increases. F. lead to
prosperous business and financial benefits G. be able to
transfer to a variety of jobs H. as well as leading to a higher
quality of production

填空题Named after an ex-Governor of New South Wales, Sydney is the
State's capital city. Located on the south-east coast of Australia in the
temperate zone, it enjoys a mild climate, averaging 14. 5 hours of sunshine per
day in summer and 10. 25 hours in winter. It is also the largest, oldest, and
perhaps most beautifully situated city in Australia. First established by the
British as a convict settlement in 1788, it is a modern cosmopolitan city that
has developed into one of the nation's major industrial, business, and
manufacturing centres. Sydney is home to nearly 4. 4 million
people (as of 1997). The suburbs reach out from the city centre and harbour some
55 km to the north 35 km to the west and 30 km to the south, creating a
metropolitan area of about 3,000 square kilometres. The 57 square kilometre
harbour is one of the largest in the world, and famous for the unmistakable 134
metre high arch of the Harbour Bridge and the graceful sails of the Opera House.
It is a busy waterway with ferries, freighters, hydrofoils and pleasure
craft. Not far from the city centre are the attractive old
residential suburbs of Balmain, Glebe, and Paddington, where many people live in
smart terraced houses. Art galleries, pubs, and restaurants abound in the cosy
streets that tend to be quite narrow, whereas the suburbs surrounding the city's
colleges and universities consist mainly of family homes and multi-unit
blocks—an ideal situation for students looking for a homestay, or to rent.
Sydney's newer suburbs now have a large multicultural population, and local
shopping centres reflect the influences of many cultures. As
well as scores of cinemas and theatres throughout the city and suburbs, there
are numerous clubs which appeal to people of all ages, and cater for all tastes.
Pubs are the venue for smaller modem hands, while the big-name popular music
artists, both local and international, attract capacity audiences at the huge
Entertainment Centre in the heart of the city. In Sydney, a
vast array of ethnic and local restaurants can be found to suit all palates and
pockets. In summer, car patrons often sit outside at tables under umbrellas, and
enjoy the passing parade of shoppers. Students who prefer to cook at home can
choose from several large weekend markets, where fresh fruit, fish, and
vegetables may be bought more cheaply than at the local supermarket. Sydney also
has its own Chinatown. In the heart of the city are several big
department stores linked by enclosed over-the-street crossings and underground
walkways. Most noticeable are the towering Centrepoint complex and the Queen
Victoria Building, both containing many shopping arcades, coffee shops and
restaurants. Out of town, in the suburbs, there are huge regional shopping
centres. At the weekend markets, bargains can be had when shopping for clothing
as well as for a wide range of assorted goods. Australia is
recognised as one of the most sports-conscious nations in the world. Sydney
boasts an impressive number of facilities for all types of indoor and outdoor
sporting activities, Wherever one goes, there are golf courses, cricket pitches,
football ovals, tennis and squash courts, and, of course, indoor and outdoor
swimming pools. Avid ice-skating and tenpin bowling fans will find that these
activities are also popular and inexpensive. Whatever a student
is interested in, it is certain to be available somewhere in Sydney. Outside the
colleges and universities the scope for filling the leisure hours is enormous,
while on campus the choice is equally varied. Answer the
following questions with the information given in the passage in a maximum of 15
words for each question.

The problem today is serious in that it most affects black youths, who are not being brought into the work force.

填空题The Independent on Sunday's (6) (industry) editor, David Bowen, collects airline sick-bags. He started about 10 years ago when he used to travel (7) (extensive), but now the (8) (collect) has its own momentum. "I get sent several bags a month," he says. "All my friends know that I collect these things, and they mention it to their friends. Then when any of them go on flights, they stare ahead of them for hours on end and (9) (soon) or later remember to pick one up." He now has about 400 bags (10) (cover) about 200 airlines: they are displayed all over the walls of his house. He asks people to pick up a couple so that he has one to swap although, he says, "There is a slightly (11) (limit) market: my only real trading partner is a German who I met in Jordan eight years ago." The bags, Bowen says, say a lot about the country of orison. Far Eastern ones tend to be lavish and exotic. Germanic ones are severely (12) (practice), eastern European ones reflect "the (13) (short) of decent paper". Bowen is keen to hear from anyone who wants to join the bag (14) (barter) system. The hobby is not sufficiently developed to have monetary value (15) (attach) to it, but the swap system should work well. "Mind you, if someone came up with a pre-War bag, possibly from Imperial Airways, I would very seriously think about letting them have several pounds for it, maybe even an Air Afrique one, too./

填空题Stereotypes are troublesome because they are often indiscriminate,
exhibit an allness orientation, and can produce frozen evaluations. Considering
the pervasiveness of stereotyping in our society, one should not take it
lightly. When we stereotype we define a person and this definition, superficial
at best, can be quite powerful. To stereotype is to define and to define is to
control, especially if the definition is widely accepted regardless of its
accuracy. In a male dominated society women may be stereotyped as empty-headed
and illogical. The fact that the stereotype has persisted for years manifests
the control men have over women, control that excludes women from executive
positions and relegates them to mindless housekeeping duties. Women's liberation
is fundamentally the struggle to define, to reject male stereotypes of females.
Stereotypes are sometimes seductive, however. When women are told repeatedly
that they are stupid, they may begin believing it. A self-fulfilling prophecy
may develop. Low self-esteem produced from male definitions of women as
unintelligent can lead to poor performance and the consequent belief that the
stereotype has merit. The stereotype is thus nurtured and perpetuated.
Stereotyping can thus control, insidiously imprisoning its victims in
constraining roles. So whole stereotyping isn't intrinsically evil. Most
stereotypes lack empirical foundations and are assertions of power and dominance
over less powerful groups. Reduced to an abstraction, victims of stereotyping
must struggle to define themselves or be content to accept roles others have
carved out for them. It is little wonder our society has been experiencing
turmoil. Read the passage carefully and then complete each
blank in the summary in a maximum of three words from the
passage. We can see that stereotypes are dangerous because
they are indiscriminate, are inclined toward {{U}} {{U}} 1
{{/U}} {{/U}}, and give a frozen evaluation. They also define and {{U}}
{{U}} 2 {{/U}} {{/U}}people if the stereotypes are widely accepted.
Women, for example, have to {{U}} {{U}} 3 {{/U}} {{/U}}to reject
men's stereotypes of females. Sometimes stereotypes are seductive. People
believe these images, so they become {{U}} {{U}} 4 {{/U}}
{{/U}}. An image can control its victims, imprisoning them in roles. Even most
stereotypes aren't true, victims of stereotyping must struggle to {{U}}
{{U}} 5 {{/U}} {{/U}}or accept the bad image others have made
up.
填空题 Directions: There are 10 blanks in the
passage. Use the words (phrases) given in the box to fill in the blanks,
changing the form where necessary. Use only one word (phrase) in each blank.
There are two extra words (phrases) which you do not need to use.
accept, abnormal, correct, majority, design, allow to,
minority, high, connect with, left, most, advantage The
majority of people, about nine out of ten, are right-handed. Up until recently,
people who were left-handed were considered {{U}}(79) {{/U}}, and once
children showed this tendency they were forced to use their right hands. Today
left-handedness is generally {{U}}(80) {{/U}}, but it is still a
disadvantage in a world where most people are right-handed. For example, most
tools and implements are still {{U}}(81) {{/U}} for right-handed
people. In sports, by contrast, doing things with the left hand
or tbot, is often a(n) {{U}}(82) {{/U}} Throwing, kicking, punching or
batting from the "wrong" side may result in throwing off many
opponents who are more accustomed to dealing with the {{U}}(83)
{{/U}} of players who are right-handed. This is why, in many games at a
professional level, a {{U}}(84) {{/U}} proportion of players are
left-handed than in the population as a whole. The word "right"
in many languages means " correct" or is {{U}}(85) {{/U}} with
lawfulness, whereas the words associated with " {{U}}(86) {{/U}}", such
as "sinister", generally have negative associations . Moreover, among a number
of primitive peoples there is a close association between death and left
hand. In the past, in {{U}}(87) {{/U}} Western
societies, children were often forced to use their right hands, especially to
write with. In some cases the left hand was tied behind the child's back so it
could not be used. If, in the future, they are {{U}}(88) {{/U}} choose,
there will certainly be more left-handers, and probably fewer people with minor
psychological disturbances as a result of being forced to use their right
hand.
