We point a finger or move another part of the body to show what we want to say. It is important to know the body language of every country or we may be misunderstood.In the US, people greet each other with a handshake in a formal discussion. The handshake must be firm. If the handshake is weak, it is a sign of weakness or unfriendliness. Friends may place a hand on the others arm or shoulder. Some people, usually women, greet each other with a hug(拥抱).Space is important to Americans. When two people talk to each other, they usually stand about 2.5 feet away and at an angle, so they are not facing each other directly. Americans get uncomfortable when a person stands too close. They will move back to have their space. If Americans touch another person by accident, they say, “Pardon me.” or “Excuse me”.Americans like to look at the other in the eyes when they are talking. If you dont do so, it means you are bored, hiding something, or are not interested. When you stare at someone, however, it is not polite.For Americans, thumbs-up means “yes”, “very good” or “well done”. Thumbs-down means the opposite. To call a waiter, one might put up one hand to head level or above. To show you want the check, make a movement with your hands as you are signing a piece of paper. It is all right to point at things but not at people with the hand and index finger(食指). Americans shake their index fingers at children when they scold them and pat them on the head when they admire them.Learning a cultures body language is sometimes confusing(困惑的). If you dont know what to do, the safest thing to do is to smile.56. When you shake hands with an American, you should_.A. shake his/her hand firmly B. put your hands on his/her shoulderC. shake his/her hand gentlyD. give him/her a hug afterwards57. In the US, people usually_ if you stand too close to them.A. feel friendlyB. get uncomfortableC. keep stillD. hit you angrily58. If you talk with an American friend, its polite to_.A. stare at him/her B. look at the groundC. look at his/her in the eyes D. look here and there59. When an American gives you the thumbs-up, he, in fact_A. means that you are number oneB. wants to please youC. needs to call a waiterD. express his satisfaction with you60. Whats the main idea of this passage?A. People greet each other by shaking hands in America.B. Every country has their own gestures.C. Learning a cultures body language is very important and necessary.D. It is all right to point at things but not at people with the hand and index finger.BAs is known to all, the organization and management of wages and salaries are very complex.Generally speaking, the Accounts Department is responsible for calculations of pay, while the Personnel Department(人事部) is interested in discussions with the employees about pay.If a firm wants to adopt a new wage and salary structure, it is essential that the firm should decide on a method of job evaluation(估价) and ways of measuring the performance of its employees. In order to be successful, that new pay structure will need agreement between Trade Unions and employers.In job evaluation, all the requirements of each job are defined in a detailed job description. Each of those requirements is given a value, usually in “points”, which are added together to give a total value for the job. For middle and higher management, a special method is used to evaluate managers on their knowledge of the job, their responsibility, and their ability to solve problems.Because of the difficulty in measuring management work, however, job grades for managers are often decided without reference to an evaluation system based on points.In attempting to design a pay system, the Personnel Department should compare the value of each job with those in the job market. It should also consider economic factors such as the cost of living and the labor supply.It is necessary that payment for a job should vary with any differences in the way that the job is performed. Where it is simply to measure the work done, as in the work done with the hands, monetary encouragement schemes are often chosen; for indirect workers, where measurement is difficult, methods of additional payments are employed.61. If a firm wants to establish a new pay structure, it is necessary to get the agreement between_.A. the Trade Unions and the Personnel DepartmentB. the Personnel Department and the Accounts DepartmentC. the employees and the Trade Unions.D. the employers and the Trade Unions62. What does the words “monetary encouragement schemes” in the last paragraph imply?A. They are plans in which much payment is encouraged.B. They are encouraging money schedulesC. They are pay systemsD. They are pay systems to encourage workers in that the more work is done, the more money will be paid.63. Methods of additional payments are adopted for indirect workers because_.A. their work is not important B. they have low wagesC. the measurement of their work is difficult D. the company does not have enough money64. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?A. In every company only the Accounts Department takes charge of the management of wages and salaries.B. Management work and the job done by workers can use the same evaluation system.C. If a job is done differently, the payment for the job should be different too.D. An evaluation system based on points is usually used to evaluate management work.65. The main purpose of the passage is to_.A. explain the responsibilities of both the Accounts Department and the Personnel Department.B. explain not to evaluate the performance of a job by pointsC. tell readers how a company should adopt a new payment systemD. convince (使确信) readers that management work is more difficult to evaluate than the work done by workersCTurning on the TV, a wonderful scene comes to your eyesa group of men, tall, strong and handsome, and women, young, beautiful and attractive, too. Together they eat in the finest restaurants, traveling everywhere around the world by luxurious planes and pleasure ships. They are models.Do you envy them? What sort of life are models leading? Is it a wonderful life for a young lady or a young man?A few models are well-known actors or actresses who can make a lot of money only by showing themselves off in commercials. But the majority of them are just curious to see what it is like. Theyd like to be models just because they are attracted by what they imaginemodels earn a lot of money and lead a glorious life. This is true for those who are very successful. However, most models find it difficult to get work. Very few can earn enough to live on, and for all models their expenses are high. Their agents claim about 20% of the earnings, and no model will get very far without a clever agent. Besides, they have to buy good clothing. They also have to pay to travel to interviews and reach the places where the work is to be done.Interviews for a model job are known as cattle-markets in the modeling world, and not without a good reason. A top model can choose his or her work, demand and receive high fees and has his or her expenses paid. But for most models, the situation is quite different. And agent or employer inspects each model much as a farmer inspects cattle at a market. Intelligence, qualifications and personal characteristics count for little against good looks and tight figures. For all except the very few lucky ones, the life of a model is a continual search for work, trying to sell himself or herself in the face of fierce competition and, sometimes, not particularly moral standards on the part of some employers.Immigration officials at airport look suspiciously at a girl whose passport shows her occupation as “Model”, and these are men and women of considerable experience of the world. It comes no surprise to find that some models prefer to put “Secretary” or “Businessman” as their jobs in their passports.Modeling is a changeable world with great rewards for a tiny minority but not for the majority.66. For models, their good looks and tight figures are _, compared with their intelligence and qualifications.A. more important B. less neededC. less essential D. more looked down upon67. Which of the following can lead you to believe according to the passage?A. A models traveling expenses are usually paid by his employer.B. To be a model, good looks are the most important qualification.C. Most models have a fairly easy way of life with high pay.D. A model can hardly be successful without a good agent.68. Models often put “Secretary” or “Businessman” instead of “Model” in their passports because _.A. they want to avoid being stopped to sign their names by fansB. a person with the occupation of a model is easily attacked by black societiesC. models are sometimes looked down uponD. secretaries and businessmen are free of custom duty
