Unless you tune (定调) in the first 60 seconds, the chances are they will tune you out.Take the fellow who opens: “On my way over to the club tonight, I ran into a bum (流浪汉) who asked me for $ 49.50 for a cup of coffee. I told him hed do much better if he asked for a quarter. He said, “Do you think Im going into the Ritz in these clothes?” We know his purpose: to win his audience over with humor. His bit of humor, however, has no connection with his speech. He has his audience laughing at the wrong time. Once you have an audience laughing its hard to get them to switch to an entirely different train of thought. There is nothing wrong with humor in a speech as long as it has something to do with the purpose of his speech. To open a speech with humor just to be entertaining invites an almost sure “turnoff” for the remainder of the talk.56. What, in a speech, determines its failure or success?A. The purpose of the speech.B. A sense of humor.C. The opening remarks.D. A forceful ending.57. If a speaker decides to be humorous, his humor should _.A. be connected with his subjectB. make his audience laughC. be fresh and differentD. be reserved for the end58. The underlined words mean _.A. to make your audience go away at onceB. likely to cause your audience to lose interestC. to switch their thoughts to other thingsD. likely to have your audience laugh with you59. Which of the following best expresses the main idea of the passage?A. The opening part of your speech should not be long.B. Humor is important in the success of your speech.C.

After farming was developed in the Middle East in about 6500 BC, people living in family units did not have to be on the move continually searching for food or hunting their animals. Once people could control the production of food and be assured of a reliable supply of it, their lives changed completely.Farming was a revolutionary discovery. It not only made settlements possible and later the building of cities but it also made available a reliable food supply. With more food available, more people could be fed. Population therefore increased. The growing number of people available for more kinds of work led to the development of new social formations. With more and more food, a community could support a variety of workers who were not farmers.Farming in the world over has always relied upon a dependable water supply. For the earliest societies this meant rivers and streams or regular rainfall. The first great civilizations grew up along rivers. Later communities were able to develop by taking advantage of the rainy seasons.All of the ancient civilizations probably developed in much the same way, in spite of a few differences. As villages grew, the production of more numerous goods became possible. Cloth could be woven from wool. Houses made of wood, brick, and stone could be put up.The science of mathematics was an early outgrowth of agriculture. People studied the movements of the moon, the sun, and the planets to work out seasons. In so doing they created the first calendars(日历). With a calendar it was possible to find out the arrival of each growing season. Measurement of land areas was necessary if field was to be divided accurately. Measurements of amounts, for example, of seeds or grains was also a factor in farming and housekeeping. Later came measures of value as money exchange became common.All of the major ancient civilizations in Mesopotamia, Egypt, the Indus Valley, and China appeared in the 4th millennium BC. Historians still argue over which one came into being first. It may well have been the Middle East. This place reaches out from the Nile River in Egypt northward along the coast of former Palestine, then eastward into Asia to include Mesopotamia. In this area people settled along the riverbanks and practiced field agriculture. This kind of farming depended on the reproduction of seed, normally from grain crops.64. The final result of the development of agriculture was that_ .A. the population increased slowlyB. a constant supply of food was certainC. a new social formation came into being D. a variety of jobs were open to people65. Which of the following is true according to the writer?A. Mathematics helped create the agricultural society.B. Societies in the past in different parts of the world grew in similar ways.C. Modern cities developed out of originally wealthier villages.D. Cloth-making marked an important period in agricultural development.66. The development of mathematics _.A. enabled people to arrange their agricultural activities betterB. got the society out of the agricultural ageC. helped create early agricultural civilization around the worldD. made possible the exchange of agricultural goods67. It can be safely concluded that _.A. the development of mathematics played a decisive role in the birth of modern citiesB. the earliest civilization first came into being in the Middle EastC. all ancient civilizations around the world developed in exactly the same wayD. the development of agriculture played a very important role in human history68. The text is mainly about _.A. the importance of agricultureB. the relationship between agriculture and mankindC. the origin of agricultureD. the ancient civilizationDBeing assertive is being able to communicate with other people clearly. If you felt that you had expressed what was important to you and allowed the other person to respond in their own way then, regardless of the final outcome, you behaved assertively. It is important to remember that being assertive refers to a way of coping with confrontations ( 对抗)。 It does not mean getting your own way every time or winning some battle of wits against another person. In practice assertive behaviour is usually most likely to produce a result which is generally acceptable to all concerned, without anyone feeling that they have been unfairly treated.Assertiveness is often wrongly confused with aggression (侵犯行为). An aggressive confrontation is when one or both parties attempt to put forward their feelings and beliefs at the expense of others. In an assertive confrontation, however, each party stands up for their personal rights, but each shows respect and understanding for the others viewpoint.The reason why assertiveness may not come naturally is that we often tend to believe that we must talk around a subject rather than be direct, or that we must offer excuses or justifications for our actions.In fact we all have a right to use assertive behaviour in a variety of situations. We are often schooled early in life to believe that sometimes our own need to express ourselves must take secondary place. For example, in dealing with those in privileged positions such as specialists, we often feel that speaking assertively is, in some way, breaking the rules. Everybody has certain basic human rights, but often we feel guilty about exercising them.69. According to the passage, an assertive person _.A. makes other people feel unfairly treatedB. puts forward his ideas at the expense of othersC. does not show respect to other peopleD. speaks out what he wants to say forcefully70. Which of the following is NOT the reason that many people prefer not to be assertive?A. They would rather be aggressive than be assertive.B. Its often better to give people hints than to be straightforward.C. Their needs to express themselves take secondary place before important persons.D. They tend to give excuses and justifications for their actions.71. In this passage, the author intends to encourage people to _.A. fight for their personal rightsB. be aggressive when they talk to othersC. assert themselves regardless of whether others suffer or not D. be assertive at any timeERoad research experts, puzzled by “motorway madness”, are to make an attempt to discover why drivers continue to take deadly risks in mist and fog.
