Other people have trouble learning a new language. How can you help yourself learn a new language, such as English? There are several steps to make learning English a little easier and more interesting. The first step is to feel positive about learning English. If you believe that you can learn, you will learn. Be patient. You do not have to understand everything all at once. It is natural to make mistakes when you learn something new. We can learn from our mistakes. In other words, do not worry about taking risks. The second stop is to practice your English. For example, write a diary every day.

You may have the business qualifications(合格证明). You have an excellent record of good education and work experience. However, without good business manners you will not succeed. Treating people with respect should be second nature to you. It helps you get on well with the people you work with and with your bosses. It always pays to be polite. Here are some tips to help improve your business manners. If you are behind schedule, remember to take the time to contact your next appointment so that the person you are due to meet is aware of the delay. If necessary, you should rearrange the meeting for a more convenient time. Try not to leave any caller on hold for too long. It is better to tell someone you will call back when you are free. Be sure to return calls as soon as you can. If you cannot return the call immediately, apologize(道歉) to the caller for the delay. Try to respond to letters within a set time. Keep a record of requests for reply within a certain time. Make a note in your diary of other deadlines(最后期限)for your work. If you are unable to respond quickly, write a short letter to the other person to explain the delay and tell him when you will reply. If you want to take a customer or a business friend out for lunch, you had better choose the restaurant and let your guest choose the time. You may think that you are not being paid as much as you should be. Do not discuss the matter with your colleagues. A good way is to contact an employment agency to find out the going rate. Armed with this objective information, you can discuss your salary with your boss. 26. What does the author emphasize for a persons success in business?A. Business qualifications. B.

The journey two divers made some time ago to the very deepest point on the earth makes us realize how much of the world still remains to be discovered. The two men went down seven miles to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean inside a small steel ball to find out if there are any ocean currents or signs of life. It was necessary to set out early, so that the ball would come to the surface in daylight, and be e easily found by the mother ship which would be waiting for it. The divers began preparations early in the morning and soon afterwards, when all was ready, the steel ball disappeared under the surface of the water. The divers felt as if they were going down steps as they passed through warm and cold layers of water. In time, the temperature dropped to freezing point. They kept in touch with the mother ship by telephone telling how they felt. Then at a depth of 3,000 feet, the telephone stopped working and they were cut off from the outside world. All went well until some four hours later at 30,000 feet, the men were frightened by a loud, cracking noise: even the smallest hole in the ball would have meant instant death. Luckily, though, it was only one of the outer windows that had broken. Soon afterwards, the ball touched the soft ocean floor raising a big cloud of dust made up of small dead sea-creatures. Here, powerful lights lit up the dark water and the men were surprised to see fish swimming just above them quite untroubled by the great water-pressure. But they did not dare to leave the lights on for long, as the heat from them would make the water boil. Quite unexpectedly, the telephone began working again and the faint but clear voices of the divers were heard on the mother ship seven miles away. After a stay of thirty minutes the men began their journey up, arriving three hours later, cold and wet through, but none the worse for their experience. 31. A diver is a person _. A. who studies plants and animals living underwater B. who works under water in a special dress C. who usually hides himself inside a small steel ball D. whose job is to drive underwater vessels32. The purpose of the two divers journey to the deepest point on the earth is _. A. to see if humans can stand the severe cold at the bottom of the ocean B. to investigate which part of the Pacific Ocean is the deepest C. to make sure that there are no signs of life in the great depths D. to find out if there are any ocean currents or living creatures there33. The telephone stopped working at a depth of 3,000 feet _. A. Where the warm and cold layers of water were divided B. and thus the divers lost contact with their mother ship C. and the temperature immediately dropped to freezing point D. when a loud, cracking noise was suddenly heard inside the ball34. The telephone began working again _. 英语二（1012）单元过关考试及答案 第 5 页（共 8 页）页） A. after the steel ball reached the bottom of the ocean B. as soon as the divers went down to the depth of 30,000 feet C. shortly after one of the outer windows had broken D. just before the steel ball touched the soft ocean floor35.
