which were based on a kind of golf ball finder - to countries including iraq, belgium and saudi arabia.mccormick, 57, was convicted(判罪) of cheats last month and sentenced thursday at the old bailey court in london.your cheating conduct in selling a great amount of useless equipment simply for huge profit promoted a false sense of security and in all probability materially contributed to causing death and injury to innocent people, judge richard hone told mccormick. you have neither regret, nor shame, nor any sense of guilt.the detectors, sold for up to $42,000 each, were said to be able to find such dangerous objects as bombs under water and from the air. but in fact they lacked any grounding in science and were of no use.mccormick had told the court that he sold his detectors to the police in kenya, the prison service in hong kong, the army in egypt and the border control in thailand.i never had any had results from customers, he said.60. why was mccormick sentenced to prison? a. he sold bombs. b. he caused death of people. c. he made detectors. d. he cheated in business.61. according to the judge, what mccormick had done _. a. increased the cost of safeguarding b. lowered peoples guard against danger c. changed peoples idea of social security d. caused innocent people to commit crimes62. which of the following is true of the detectors? a. they have not been sold to africa. b. they have caused many serious problems. c. they can find dangerous objects in water. d. they dont function on the basis of science.63. it can be inferred from the passage that mccormick _. a. sold the equipment at a low price b. was well-known in most countries c. did not think he had committed the crime d. had not got such huge profit as mentioned in the textcthe interview had been going on for about 20 minutes and everything seems to be going well. then, suddenly, the interviewer asks an unexpected question, “which is more important, law or love?”job applicants in the west increasingly find themselves asked strange questions like this. and the signs are that this is beginning to happen in china.employers want people skilled, enthusiastic and devoted. so these are the qualities that any reasonably intelligent job applicants will try to show no matter what his or her actual feelings are. in response, employers are increasingly using questions which try and show the applicants true personality.the question in the first paragraph comes from a test called kiersey personality sorter. it is an attempt to discover how people solve problems, rather than what they know. this is often called competence testing.according to mark baldwin of alliance many job applicants in china are finding this type of questions difficult. when a chinese person fills out an competence test he or she will think there is a right answer and they may fail because they try to guess what the examiner wants to see.this is sometimes called the prisoners dilemma. applicants are trying to act cleverly in their own interest. but they fail because they dont understand what the interviewer is looking for. remember that in an competence test, the correct answer is always the honest answer.64the writer wrote the passage to .aadvise you how to find a job btell you how to meet a job interviewercdescribe the competence test. dpresent a piece of advice on a job interview.65according to the writer, in a competence testing, chinese job applicants should . anot tell the truth and fact btry to find out what the interviewers thinkcbe more enthusiastic positive dlearn to tell what they really think 66from the passage we know that .acompetence testing is becoming popular in the worldwide bmore chinese applicants fail to find a jobcapplicants should act as unreasonably as a prisonerdjob applicants are always asked the same questionsdit was the first mow of winter -
