account of what we did each day we should be able to give an answer to the question It is the same in history Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write For example we know a good deal about the people who lived in China4 000 years ago because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa because they had not learned to write Sometimes of course even if the people cannot write they may know something of the past They have heard about it from older people and often songs and dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings and these have been sung and acted and told for many generations For most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past This we may call remembered history Some of it has now been written down It is not so exact or so valuable to us as writ ten history is because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing But where there are no written records such spoken stories are often very helpful 51 Which of the following ideas is not suggested in the passage A Where there are no written records there is no history B Remembered history compared with written history is less reliable C A written account of our daily activities helps us to be able to answer many questions D Written records of the past play the most important role in our learning of the human history 52 We know very little about the central Africa 200 years ago because A the people there did not know how to write B the written records were perhaps destroyed by a fire C there was nothing worth writing down at that time D the people there ignored the importance of keeping a record 53 Remembered history is regarded as valuable only when A it is written downB no written account is available C it proves to be timeD people are interested in it 54 The passage suggests that we could have learned much more about our past than we do now if the ancient people had A made more songs and dances B not burnt their written records in wars C kept a written record of every past event D told exact stories of the most important happenings B 用心 爱心 专心6 Grandpa loved life especially when he could play a trick on somebody At those times his large frame shook with laughter But on a cold Saturday Grandpa felt that God played a trick on him and Grandpa wasn t laughing On this day as a carpenter he was building some crates for the clothes his church was sending to an orphanage in China On his way home he reached into his shirt pocket to find his glasses but they were gone He remembered putting them there that morning so he drove back to the church His search proved fruitless When he mentally replayed his earlier actions he realized what happened The glasses had slipped out of his pocket unnoticed and fallen into one of the crates which he had nailed shut His brand new glasses were heading for China The Great Depression was at its height and Grandpa had six children He had spent twenty dollars for those glasses that very morning It s not fair he told God as he drove home in frustration Several months later the director of the orphanage was on holiday in the United States He wanted to visit all the churches that supported him in China so he came to speak on Sunday night at my grandfather s small church in Chicago Grandpa and his family sat among the sparse congregation But most of all he said I must thank you for the glasses you sent last year You see my glasses were just destroyed I was desperate Even if I had the money there was simply no way of replacing those glasses Along with not being able to see well I experienced headaches every day so my coworkers and I were much in prayer about this Then your crates arrived When my staff removed the covers they found a pair of glasses lying on top Pausing long enough then he continued Folks when I tried on the glasses it was as though they had been custom made just for me I want to thank you for being a part of that The people listened but they thought the missionary must have confused their church with an other But sitting quietly in the back with tears streaming down his face an ordinary carpenter realized the Master Carpenter had used him in an extraordinary way 55 Which is not right about Grandpa A He was cheerful mostly B He believed in God much C He was responsible to his whole family D He sent the glasses to the missionary in China on purpose 56 From the last two paragraphs which can be inferred A Grandpa was glad to know where his glasses were at last B Grandpa should have helped the missionary with the glasses C The people knew they did not send the glasses in their list of items D The people did not know Grandpa had sent the glasses to the missionary 57 What does the underlined word custom made mean mostly 用心 爱心 专心7 A made by handB made specially C made with his agreement D made by a special tailor 58 Which can be the best title A Perfect Mistake B Happy Grandpa Became Quiet at Last C Grandpa Sending his Glasses Mistakenly D God Arranged Everything with a Purpose C Never go into a supermarket hungry This is a good piece of advice If you go shopping for food before lunchtime you ll probably buy more than you plan to Unfortunately however just this ad vice isn t enough for consumers these days Modern shoppers need an education in how and how not to buy things at the store First you check the weekly newspaper ads Find out the items that are on sale and decide if you really need these things In other words don t buy anything just because it s cheaper than usual New and Improved or All Natural on the front of a package influence you Instead read the list of ingredients contents on the back Third compare prices that is you should examine the prices of both different brands and different sizes of the same brand Another suggestion for consumers is to buy ordinary items instead of famous brands Ordinary items in supermarkets come in plain packages These products are cheaper because producers don t spend much money on packing or advertising The quality however is usually as good as the quality of well known name brands In the same way in buying clothes you can often find high quality and low prices in brands that are not famous Shopping in discount clothing stores can help you save a lot of money Although these stores aren t very attractive and they usually do not have individual dressing rooms not only are the prices low but you can often find the same famous brands that you find in high priced department stores Wise consumers read magazine ads and watch TV commercials but they do this with one ad vantage knowledge of the psychology behind the ads In other words well informed consumers watch for information and check for misinformation They ask themselves questions Is the advertiser hiding something in small print at the bottom of the page Is there any real information in the commercial or is the advertiser simply showing an attractive image With the answers to these questions consumers can make a wise choice 59 All the following statements are true about the phrase ordinary items in Paragraph 2 except A ordinary products are usually cheaper than famous brands B producers spend less money on packaging of ordinary items C ordinary items never say New and Improved or All Natural D the quality of ordinary items is usually as good as that of famous brands 60 What does the writer think about ads A They are believable B They are helpful to consumers C They are full of misinformation D They are attractive 61 One of the author s suggestions to consumers is A to make use of ads B to buy any ordinary items instead of famous brands 用心 爱心 专心8 C to buy high quality items such as famous brands after lunch D not to buy items with words like New and Improved or All Natural 62 The author implies that A ads sometimes don t tell the truth B discount clothing stores are good places to go to C going into the supermarket hungry you may buy more than you plan to D the quality of ordinary items is usually high and the prices are relatively low D Whether in the workplace or on the football field effective teamwork can produce amazing results However working successfully as a team is not as easy as it may seem Effective teamwork certainly does not just happen automatically it takes a great deal of hard work and compromise There are a number of factors that must be in place to make a good team Effective leadership is one of the most important components of good teamwork The team s leader should possess the skills to create and preserve a positive working environment and motivate and inspire the team members to take a positive approach to work and be highly committed An effective team leader will promote a high level of spirit and make them feel supported and valued Communication is a vital factor of all interpersonal relationship and especially that of a team Team members must be able to articulate their feelings express plans and goals share ideas and see each other s opinions Conflicts will arise no matter how well a team functions together The best way to deal with conflicts is to have some organized methods of handling conflicts Team members should be able to voice their concerns without fear of offending others Instead of avoiding conflict issues a hands on approach that settles them quickly is much better It is often advised that the team leader sit with the conflicting parties and help work out their differences without taking sides and trying to remain objective if possible The team leader must set a good example to create good teamwork In order to keep team members positive and committed and motivated the team leader herself himself needs to show these qualities The team turns to the leader for support and guidance So any negative words or behaviors on the leader s part can be disastrous Regardless of what type of work you are in knowing how to effectively work on and with a team is going to be extremely important to your success and that of your team 63 Effective leadership is important partly because A it creates a positive working environment B it helps a leader to develop lots of skills C it makes a leader feel supported and valued D it depends on interpersonal relationship of a team 64 The underlined word articulate probably means A
