1.Many people, including some policemen, believe eye contact is a good test of honesty. If someone can't look at you directly in the eye, then he or she is not playing honestly, they insist. After many experiments, however, a number of experts have found out that good liars can make false eye contact.Eye contact, though not a sure sign of dishonesty, is a clear way to show interest in another person. When a person looks at you and continues to do so, you know his attention is placed on you. When he turns his head away, his mind is probably elsewhere. But there are exceptions. A shy person may have trouble making and keeping eye contact, no matter how interested he is in the other person. And certain nationalities, such as the British and Germans, are much less oriented to eye-to-eye contact than, say, the French and the Arabs.Eye contact should be natural, not forced or overdone.Have short periods of eye contact while you watch other parts of the person's face — especially the mouth. When the person smiles, be sure to smile back. But always make an effort to return your gaze to the person's eyes as she speaks. It is common to look up, down, and all around when speaking to others, and not have eye contact at all times.Too much eye contact, especially if it is forced, can work against you. If you stare at a person, or leer in a suspicious way, the other person may feel uncomfortable and even suspicious about your intent. A fixed stare can seem like aggressive behavior. if it is a challenge as to who will look away first.(1)Many people believe that eye contact is a sign of ___________.A、honestyB、dishonestyC、attentionD、A and C(2)According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?A、Eye contact is a way to show interest in another person.B、When a person looks at you, his attention is placed on you.C、When a person fails to make eye contact, he is definitely not interested in you.D、It is common to look up, down, and all around when speaking to others.(3)While we watch other person's face, we should have short periods of eye contact with, especially, other people's _____________.A、eyesB、noseC、mouthD、ears(4)Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A、Eye contact is not a good test of honesty.B、Some people may have trouble making and keeping eye contact, no matter how interested he is in the other person.C、If someone can look at you directly in the eye, he or she is playing honestly.D、A number of experts have found out that no one can make false eye contact.(5)This passage mainly discusses ________________.A、how to test one is honest or not by the way of eye contactB、how to make eye contactC、how to avoid too much eye contactD、the function of correct eye contact

4.Everyone needs friends, and if you fail to make friends, you should examine yourself and see if there is something wrong with your personality.Maybe you have social faults such as snobbishness, talkativeness, using slang, etc., which drive away your new acquaintances. Whatever your social faults may be, look at them honestly, and make a real effort to correct them.To be friendly you must feel friendly. Cheerfulness is the basis of friendliness. A cheerful person smiles. A smile is a magnet which draws people. Smile at someone and you are almost sure to get a smile in return.A friendly person does his best to make a stranger feel at home, wherever he happens to be. Put yourself in the other fellow's place and make him feel welcome.Try to remember names. It makes your new acquaintances feel happy when you call them by their names. It gives them the feeling that they have made an impression on you and that must mean something to them because you remember them.If you do not agree with other people on a certain matter, you should appear to be friendly. Do not argue, but discuss. You always lose friends if you argue too much.A friendly person thinks of others, and does not insist on his own “rights”.

    B.how much does it cost
    C.however does it cost much

    答案:A
    解析:
    考查让步状语从旬。特殊疑问词+ever既可引导让步状语从句,也可引导名词性从句。本句中however引导的是一个让步状语从句,however后面要接形容词或副词,however much it costs相当于no matter how much it costs。句意为“我已经告诉你了,无论花多少钱,我都要买它”。故A项正确。

  • 第8题:

    资料:Procrastination comes in many disguises. We might resolve to tackle a task, but find endless reasons to defer it. We might prioritize things we can readily tick off our to-do list- answering emails, say- while leaving the big, complex stuff untouched for another day. We can look and feel busy. while artfully avoiding the tanks that really matter. And when we look at those rolling, long untouched items at the bottom of our to-do list, we can't help but feel a little disappointed in ourselves.
    The problem is our brains are programmed to procrastinate. In general, we all tend to struggle with task that promise future upside in return for efforts we take now. That's because it's easier for our brains to process concrete rather than abstract things, and the immediate hassle is very tangible compared with those unknowable, uncertain future benefits. So the short-term effort easily dominates the long-term upside in our minds--an example of something that behavioral scientists call present bias.
    How can you become less myopic about your elusive tasks? It's all about rebalancing the cost benefit analysis: make the benefits of action feel bigger, and the costs of action feel smaller. The reward for doing a pestering task needs to feel larger than the immediate pain of tacking it.
    To make the benefits of action feel bigger and more real:
    Visualize how great it will be to get it done. Researchers have discovered that people are more likely to save for their future retirement if they're shown digitally aged photographs of themselves. Why? Because it makes their future self feel more real-making the future benefits of saving also feel more weighty.

    How can you become less myopic about your elusive tasks?

    A.Make the costs of action feel smaller.
    B.Make the reward larger than the immediate pain of doing it.
    C.Make the benefits of action feel bigger.
    D.All the above.

    答案:D
    解析:
    本题考查的是细节理解。
    【关键词】how; less myopic; elusive tasks
    【主题句】第3自然段How can you become less myopic about your elusive tasks? It’s all about rebalancing the cost-benefit analysis: make the benefits of action feel bigger, and the costs of action feel smaller.

    【解析】选项A意为“让行动的代价变得更小”;选项B意为“让奖励大于做它的直接痛苦”;选项C意为“让行动的好处感觉更大”;选项D意为“以上全部”。根据文章第3段的内容(主题句),可知A、B、C项原文都有提及,因此该题选D,所有都涉及。

    FOUR TIPS FOR BECOMING A FRANCHISEE

    If you want to become a franchisee, the tips below can help you to find the perfect opportunity. BE FOCUSD ON YOUR PREFERENCE. On the stage of decision-making, the bottom line is: Don't rule out a business without learning or seeing what the day-to-day will look like. For instance, think about a mom returning to the work force who knows she wants to interact with children on a daily basis. Among the hundreds of options there, she needs to decide if she would like to be hands on as a teacher or if she would rather manage a facility that tutors children in math. Deciding between the two is easy if she considers which day-to-day position she would prefer and how that will impact her other goals. BE PROACTIVE WITH YOUR RESEARCH. After you've determined what role you want in a franchise, it's important to start researching different options. Physically visit many different franchise locations and browse the web and then determine what will be a fit in your community. Make sure the franchisor has experience. Before signing on to a franchise, it is essential to ask the franchisor about the executive team and its past industry experience. Find out if the company leaders have had significant experience at another franchise and are now applying that knowledge successfully. READ THE FRANCHISE DISCLOSURE DOCUMENT CAREFULLY. The first thing to look at is how much a franchise would cost to purchase. Make sure you have a financial advisor who can look at that item with you and see the type of profit a franchisee can make on average. It's also important to take a look at the post-termination clause in the agreement to make sure that when you want to leave the business, you know the terms well and your interests are properly protected.

    1. Decide on a business with learning or seeing what the day-to-day will look like.() 2. Before you've determined what role you want in a franchise, it's time to start the business.()

    3. Before signing on to a franchise, the essential job is to ask the franchisor about the executive team and its past industry experience.()

    4. The first thing to look at is how long a franchise would take to purchase.()

    5. To make sure that when you want to leave the business, you have made enough money and you are satisfied with that.()
