Neighbors from HellOur new neighbors moved in three weeks ago. There was a father, a mother, a teenage boy and a grandfather.One evening, Terry, the son came home driving an old car that made an awful noise. He parked the car in front of the house. Immediately a lot of oil appeared on the road under it. That was not important. What was important was the music system in the car. Terry decided it was not loud enough, so he put two more speakers in the car. Now it was loud enough for the whole street to hear. Very soon the police arrived. They discovered that the car was stolen. They took the car and Terry to the police station.Then the grandfather started to cook some paper parcels of fish on the barbeque in the garden. But he forgot what he was doing and fell asleep. A neighbor called the fire brigade when he saw smoke coming from the garden.

One evening in February 2007， a student named Paula Ceely brought her car to a stop on a remote road in Wales．She got out to open a metal gate that blocked her path．That's when she heard the whistle sounded by the driver of a train．Her Renault Clio was parked across a railway line．Seconds later， she watched the train drag her car almost a kilometre down the railway tracks． Ceely' s near miss made the news because she blamed it on her GPS device．She had never driver the route before．It was dark and raining heavily．Ceely was relying on her GPS， but it made no mention of the crossing．"I put my complete trust in the device and it led me right into the path of a speeding train， "she told the BBC． Who is to blame here？ Rick Stevenson， who tells Ceely's story in his book When Machines Fail Us，points the finger at the limitations of technology．We put our faith in digital devices， he says， but our digital helpers are too often not up to the job．They are filled with small problems．And it's not just GPS devices：Stevenson takes us on a tour of digital disasters involving everything from mobile phones to wireless keyboards． The problem with his argument in the book is that it's not clear why he only focuses on digital technology， while there may be a number of other possible causes．A map-maker might have left the crossing off a paper map．Maybe we should blame Ceely for not paying attention．Perhaps the railway authorities are at fault for poor signaling system．Or maybe someone has studied the relative dangers and worked out that there really is something specific wrong with the GPS equipment． But Stevenson doesn't say． It's a problem that runs through the book．In a section on cars， Stevenson gives an account of the advanced techniques that criminals use to defeat computer-based locking systems for cars．He offers two independent sets of figures on car theft； both show a small rise in some parts of the country．He says that once again not all new locks have proved reliable，Perhaps， but maybe it's also due to the shortage of policemen on the streets．Or changing social circumstances．Or some combination of these factors． The game between humans and their smart devices is amusing and complex．It is shaped by economics and psychology and the cultures we live in．Somewhere in the mix of those forces there may be a way for a wiser use of technology． If there is such a way， it should involve more than just an awareness of the shortcomings of our machines．After all， we have lived with them for thousands of years．They have probably been fooling us for just a．s long．（1）What did Paula Ceely think was the cause of her accident？ ____ A． She was not familiar with the road．B． It was dark and raining heavily then．C． The railway workers failed to give the signal．D． Her GPS device didn't tell her about the crossing．（2）The phrase "near miss"（Paragraph 2）can best be replaced by ____ ．A． close hitB． heavy lossC． narrow escapeD． big mistake（3）Which of the following would Rick Stevenson most probably agree with？ ____ A． Modern technology is what we can't live without．B． Digtal technology often falls short of our expectation．C． Digital devices are more reliable than they used to be．D． GPS error is not the only cause for Ceely's accident．（4）In the writer's opinion，Stevenson's argument is ____ ．A． one-sidedB． reasonableC． puzzlingD． well-based（5）What is the real concern of the writer of this article？ ____ A． The major causes of traffic accidents and car thefts．B． The human unawareness of technical problems．C． The shortcomings of digital devices we use．D． The relationship between humans and technology．

question or statement.Hot pot is a traditional dish in China. It is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of the Jin Dynasty. Hot pot's origins can be found in the dining practices of Mongolian horsemen who rode across the steppe and into northern China. Legend has it that the Mongols used their helmets as pots to simmer (炖) broth (汤底) over open fires, and cooked chunks of meat in the broth.Hot pot cooking seems to have spread to northern China during the Tang Dynasty. In the regional variations developed with different ingredients such as seafood. In the centuries that witnessed the growth of the Song Dynasty, hot pot moved — and changed — further south, with each successive region adapting it to their local ingredients and tastes.The ingredients in a hot pot vary a lot from region to region. Perhaps the most famous hot pot is the Chongqing or Sichuan hot pot. It features a dark red broth chock-full (塞满了的) of spices, chili peppers, and the uniquely mouth-numbing Sichuan peppers. In Beijing and elsewhere in the north, hot pot broth tends to be mild and, compared to its racy southern "cousins", a little light. In the northeast of China, a kind of local sauerkraut (酸菜) is used to add some tang (强烈的味道), making the broth a bit sour. People can choose a version of hot pot according to their taste.1 Hot pot is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of _______.A. the Jin Dynasty B. the Tang DynastyC. the Song Dynasty D. the Yuan Dynasty

The Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, is perhaps the most popular set of novels of the modern era. With seven books and many successful films to its name, the series has gathered about 15 billion dollars in sales. How did the series become so popular? The reason can be broken down into several areas.The first book in the series was rejected 12 times before it was picked up by Bloomsbury—a small publisher in England. So receiving this contract was Rowling's first step to success. However, getting a book contract does not ensure the success of a book. The story was soon loved by children and adults alike. In light of this, Bloomsbury Publishing published a second version of the books with “adult” (less colorful and more boring) book covers. This made it easier for a full range of ages to enjoy the series.Another factor that worked like a charm was that the publisher and Rowling herself, through the books, conducted midnight releases, promotions, and pre-ordering more readers. Customers who feared that their local bookstore would run out of copies responded by pre-ordering over 700,000 copies before the July 8, 2000 release.What does the underlined word “releases” (Para. 3) mean?A. The activity that frees or expresses energy or emotion.B. The announcement about the book’s publishing information.C. The sales of books that is available only at midnight.

The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator. Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding. [共5题](1)What kind of manager is needed in present international business and foreign investment? [本题2分]A. The man who represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation. B. The man with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. C. The man who is wealthy and impersonal. D. The man who can negotiate with his foreign counterparts.
