The agreement or treaty (#J.cJ) which created the organization that eventually became the EU, the Treaty of Rome, stated that each countrys language must be treated equally. The original six countries had only three languages between them: French. German and Dutch/ Flemish. However, there are now 15 countries in the EU, with a total of 12 languages. EU documents must be translated into all these languages, and at official meetings the speeches must be translated into all the languages by interpreters.All this translating is very expensive and time-consuming (费时的). it is said that nearly half of all employees of the EU are engaged in translating documents and speeches, and nearly half of the EUs administrative(管理方面的) costs are spent on this task. in the near future it is probably that several more countries, most of them having their own languages, will join the EU, thus making the situation even worse.The problem is not just cost: there are practical difficulties as well. With 12 languages, there are 132 possible translation situations that might be needed. It is often difficult to find people in the right place at the right time who can translate from (for example) Danish into Greek, or Dutch into Portuguese, at a high professional standard.In practice the problem has been made less severe by the use of English in many contacts between EU officials, since almost all of them speak some English. However, any move to reduce the number of official languages (perhaps to four or five) would be a blow to the price of the smaller countries. Another commonly suggested solution is to make English the official language for all EU business. However, this is strongly resisted by powerful member countries like France and Germany.56. Whats the main purpose of this passage?A. To give a solution to a problem.B. To find out a problem and show how severe it is.C. To criticize the European Union for illefficiency.D. To show that the problem cannot be solved.57. According to the writer, the use of English in contacts among EU officials has _.A. angered the officials who dont speak EnglishB. reduced the number of official languagesC. lessened the effect of the problemD. been opposed by powerful member countries58. The writer mentions Danish into Greek as an example of _.A. a situation that might be difficult to deal withB. a situation that occurs oftenC. one of the 12 situations that requires an interpreterD. languages easily being interpreted59. The writer suggests that if the number of official languages was reduced _.A. the EU would not know which official languages to chooseB. countries whose languages were not used officially would be unhappyC. only languages which are easy to translate would be used officiallyD. the smaller member countries would be pleasedBThe phone is ringing at the other end of the line and it clicks as it is being answered. A voice says quickly, Hello. Will you hold, please.? Then there is another click, followed by silence. It seems like hours before someone comes back on the line - that is, if you dont hang up first.Office calls are, perhaps, the most difficult and the most important part of a secretarys work. The first impression that a client receives about a business is very often through a telephone contact. A caller who is left hanging on hold will get the feeling that he or she has been forgotten or ignored. Ira call is answered rudely, the caller may become angry. And if the call is not muted directly to the right person, the caller may feel that he or she is getting the runaround.Laura Needham is a secretary in the executive offices of a large manufacturing company. As a good office secretary Laura knows that all phone calls must be answered without delay and handled efficiently. She knows that a secretary must be pleasant and helpful, no matter how busy she is or what kind of mood she may be in. She knows she must keep calm if a caller gets impatient or becomes angry; also, of course, she knows she can never allow herself to lose her temper, if she does not have the information the caller asks for, she must know who does have the information. Finally. she knows that one of her most important responsibilities is to screen telephone calls and to know which calls to refer to her boss, which calls to refer to other people, and which calls to handle herself.A well-handled telephone call will give the caller a good impression of the company he or she is dealing with. For this reason, an office secretary who can handle telephone calls cheerfully, tactfully (老练的), and efficiently is a valuable asset to any organization.60. Good secretaries find it _ to handle office calls well.A. very boring B. very importantC.quite necessary D. extremely difficult61. The underlined word runaround here means _.A. a flat refusal B. a not-so-warm welcomeC. an unpleasant refusal D. an unhelpful response62. In Lauras opinion a secretary can never be a good one until _.A. she often asks her boss how to answer a telephone callB. she knows how to please her clientsC. she has the information that her clients needD.she can keep calm and never loses her temper63. This passage is mainly about _.A. well-handled telephone callsB. an efficient office secretary called Laura NeedhamC. the importance of how office calls are dealt withD.a secretary being a valuable asset to her companyCBefore discussing different kinds of emotions, let us briefly talk about how reaserchers measure bodily processes, actions and behavior, and how this relates to what we do in our daily lives when we observe emotions in others.Bodily processes can be directly measured by means of a polygraph. When a polygrapy is skillfully used to compare how we react bodily with what we are saying, it is called a lie detector. Bodily processes can also be measured indirectly. This is what we do when we observe someone blushing (脸红). However, we are not always aware of what bodily processes respond to.Measuring action.or behavior is the other way researchers assess the emotions. For example, one measure of fear of snakes is how close a person will go to the snake. Another procedure is to have a person tell how afraid he is, or how he feels, in this way, researchers have developed the so-called fear thermometer to assess a persons fear. In our everyday living, we do very much the same thing. Only not too systematically. We react to what a person does, what he says, how he says it. and how he looks. Is he smiling?is his voice trembling?We put all this observations together to infer what a person is feeling.However, we do not always act as we feel. Sometimes we do things that we dont feel like doing. Sometimes we say we feel one way and then we act another. Actors, tbr example, successfully learn to make believe emotions, or learn to tiide them. Thus we cannot always tell what a person is feeling by what he says or by what he does,64. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. We can never tell what a person is feeling.B. The fear thermometer is a way to measure how fearful a person is.C. Researchers can assess the emotions in some ways.D. People do not always know what bodily processes they respond to.65. The underlined word assess in the 3rd paragraph is close in meaningtoA. make B. measure C. discuss D. develop66. The writer uses the example of actors in order to argue that _.A. it is rather easy to become successful actorsB. people do not always act as they feelC. we cari never believe what other people sayD. actors are always telling lies67. The passage is mainly about _.A. the way of assessing the emotionB. the usefulness of a lie detectorC. the functioning of different emotionsD. the development of the fear thermometerDConcern with money, and then more money, in order to buy the conveniences and luxuries of modem life, has brought great changes to the lives of most Frenchmen. More people are working than ever before
