PassagePassagePassagePassageOneOneOneOne In Japan, somepeople play golf on weekends and someform long linesinthe Ginza district to watch first-run foreign films.Aknowing few go to the barbershop. Atrip to a Japanese barbershop is an odyssey into the countrys economic miracle, a glimpse at the sameattention to detail that has made "Japan Inc."the envy of the capitalist world. It is more than simply getting a haircut. Customers go to escape the hustle and bustle of Tokyos frenetic pace. They go to complain about local politics and catch up on the latest neighborhood scuttlebutt. But most of all, they go to be cranked up highinthe barbers chair, to assume for at lest one precious moment – regardless of their walk of life---that honorific stature uniquely reveredin Japan: that of okyakusama, or customer. So going to the barbershop here is an outing . The object is not to getitover with as quickly as possible, American-style, but to prolong the treatment and baskinits sensual pleasures. No one understands this better than Tanaka-san, who runs a state-of-the-art barbershop just up the street from where I live,inthe Minami Azabu district. Like much elseinJapan, Mr. Tankakas shop has only recently goneupscale. Last year, he sold his small, old shop, located a few blocks from the new one, for a cool $15.3 million. With typical Japanese foresight for investing for the long pull, Mr. Tanaka plowed the proceeds into his spanking new premises. Mr. Tanaka, 54, has beeninthe barbering business for 38 years. Backin1950, he charged only 35 yen --- not much compared with the 3,200 yen he receives today for a cut and shampoo. At todays exchange rates, $22 for a haircut might seem expensive, but I think its one of the best dealsintown. You always have to waitinline at Mr. Tanakas shop:He doesnt take reservations because he doesnt need to. But when your time comes, Mr.Tanaka directs you to the seat of honor. Soon his wife is feverishly shampooing your hair, massaging your scalp with a special brush. While she scrubs, Mr. Tanaka is busy at the next chair, applying the finishing snips and snaps to another client. This tag-team approach keeps the shop running atfullcapacity. Mr.Tanaka typically spends about 45 minutes cutting your hair, scrutinizing the symmetry of the sideburns with the utmost care. His cutting skills are superb, butitisinconversation that he truly excels.Heknows when to talk, when to listen and when to utter the drawn-out guttural grunt of approval so commoninJapanese. These insightful yet subtle dialogues with his clients create the cornerstoneof Mr.Tanakasthriving business: therepeat customer, every retailers dream. For the rare client not "hooked" by pleasant conversation , Mrs. Tanakas shaving technique, with a straight-edged razor, is the showstopper. First, she places a hot towel over your face, then wipes your facewith moisturizing oil. She applies another hot towel to remove theoiland lathers you up with warm shaving cream. Finally, she methodically spends fifteen minutes shaving off every last whisker---including any stray hairs that might have found their way to your forehead or earlobes. Theoiland hot-towel procedureis repeated and thereclining customer is gently coaxed into returning to earth. Foreign businessmen trying to figure our what makes Japans economy so successful might do well to visit a Japanese barbershop. Impeccable service isnt extra here, its included the price of admission. 61.An attention to detail has made "Japan Inc." A. a good place fortouristsB.a land of many barbershops C. a prosperous economic powerD. a famousresort 62. In Japanesebarbershops, barbers A. rush customers out 6B. never talk about politics C. talk with customersand work leisurelyD. arerather impatient with customers 63. Relaxation and sensual pleasure are A. admitted goals of customershwoB. not possibleinthebusy atmosphere C. not appreciated by hurried customersD. not available to customers 64. BecauseMr.Tanakas shop is s popular, A. reservations are requiredB. people waitinline C. he is opening another new storeD. he becomesfamous for that 65. Not only is Mr.Tanakaa good barber, but he is also A. skilled at conversationB. an expertinshaving techniques C. a local politicianD. apsychologist PassagePassagePassagePassageTwoTwoTwoTwo Mincerva was the goddess of wisdom, but on one occasion she did a very foolish thing; she entered into competition with Juno and Venus for the prize of beauty. It happened thus: At the nuptials of Peleus and Theetisallthe gods were invited with the exception of Eris, or Discord. Enraged at her exclusion, the goddess threw a golden apple among the guests, with the inscription (题词), "For the fairest." Thereupon Juno, Venus, and Minerva each claimed the apple. Jupiter, not willing to decideinso delicate a matter, sent the goddesses to Mount Ida, where the beautiful shepherd Paris was tending his flocks, and to him was committed the decision. The goddesses accordingly appeared before him. Juno promised him power and riches, Minerva glory and renowninwar, and Venus the fairest of women his wife, each attempting to bias his decisionin her own favor. Paris decidedinfavour of Venus and gave her the golden apple, thus making the two other goddesses his enemies. Under the protection of Venus, Paris sailed to Greece, and was hospitably received by Menelaus. king of Sparta. Now Helen, the wife of Menelaus, was the very woman whom Venus had destined for Paris, the fairest of her sex. She had been sought as a bride by numerous suitors, and before her decision was made known, they all, at the suggestion of Ulysses, one of their number, took an oath that they would defend her fromallinjury and avenge her causeifnecessary. She chose Menelaus, and was living with him happily when Paris became their guest . Paris aided by Venus, persuaded her to elope（私奔） with him, and carried her to Troy, whence arose the famousTrojan war, the theme of the greatest poems of antiquity, those of Homer and Virgil. Menelaus called upon his brother chieftains （首领） of Greeceto fulfill their pledge, and join himinhis efforts to recover his wife. They generally came forward, but Ulysses, who had married Penelope, and was very happyinhis wife and child, had no disposition to embarkinsuch a troublesome affair.Hethereforehung back and Palamedes was sent to urge him. When Palamedes arrived at Ithaca Ulysses pretended to be mad. He yoked （用牛轭套住） an assand an ox together to the plough and began to sow salt. Palamedes, to try him, placed the infant Telemachus before the plough, whereupon the father turned the plough aside, showing plainly that he wasno madman, and after that could no longer refuse to fulfill his promise. Being now himself gained for the undertaking, he lent his aid to bringinother reluctant chiefs, especially Achilles. This hero was the son of that Thetis at whose marriage the apple of Discord had been thrown among the goddesses. Thetis was herself one of the immortals, a sea-nymph (海仙女), and knowing that her son was fated to perish before Troyifhe went on the expedition, she endeavoured to prevent his going . She sent him away to the court of King Lycomedes, and induced him to conceal himselfin the disguise of a maiden among the daughters of the king. Ulysses, hearing he was there, went disguised as a merchant to the palace and offered for sale female ornaments, among which he had placed some arms. While the kings daughters were engrossed with the other contents of the merchant s pack, Achilles handled the weapons and thereby betrayed himself to the keen eye of Ulysses, who found no great difficultyinpersuading him to disregard his mothers prudent counsels and join his countrymeninthe war. 66. Bulfinch describes Jupiter as unwilling to “decideinso delicate a matter” (lines 6), implying that A. Jupiter is usually heavy-handed B. any decision is bound to offend someone C. Jupiter to overly sensitive.D. the problems are so obscurethat no one can judge them 67. Theword disposition (line 22) is used to mean A. inclinationB. natureC. integrityD. value 68.

Ulyssessattempt to be found insaneB. the difficulty of cultivatinginrocky soil C. how the tearsof thegods created the seaD. thegods punishment of thosewho disobey them 69. Bulfinch reveals that Thetis is a sea-nymphyinorder to explain A. why shemarried PeleusB. why shedislikes theideaof war C. the effect of the apple of DiscordD. her ability to predict thefuture 70..Among the chieftains of Greeceapparently are A. Juno, Venus, and MinervaB. Paris and Lycomedes C. Ulysses,Achilles, and MenelausD. Eris and Thetis PassagePassagePassagePassageThreeThreeThreeThree On the whole, the National Aeronautics and SpaceAdministration has always treated Mars with respect. American spacecraft have flown by, orbited and even landed on the Red Planet. What theyve never done is wound it. If scientists ever hope to understand Mars fully, however, they are going to have to puncture the dry Martian crust to sample the planetary pulp below. Next week NASA will launch a ship that will begin that process. The first ship of the two-spacecraft mission --- set to fly Dec. 10---is the Mars Climate Orbiter. ArrivinginSeptember 1999, the spacecraft will enter an orbit of the planet that traces a path over the Martian poles, allowingitto study the local atmosphere. Its orbit will positionitperfectly to act as a relay satellite for any later ship that may land on the surface. That’s a good thing, since three weeks or so after the orbiter leaves Earth, NAS will launch another spacecraft, the more ambitious Mars Polar Lander. Aspindly machine standing 107 cm tall, the lander is set to arriveinDecember 1999, aiming to touch down near Mars’south pole, one of the few sports on the freeze-dried planet that is likely to contain some water. Just before reaching the Martian atmosphere, the lander will release a pairs of tapered pods(锥形分离舱) , each about the size of a basketball, made of brittle silica. Plunging ahead of the ship , theprojectiles will free-fall to the surfaceand strike the ground at 650 km/h. Thepods are designed to shatter on impact, releasing a pair of 18-cm probes. Slamming into the surface, the probes are supposed to drive themselves 120 cm into the Martian crust. Once buried, they will deploy tiny drills and begin sampling the chemical makeup of the soil around them. Scientists believe that chemistry could be remarkably rich. "The surface of Mars has been pretty well sterilized(消毒) by ultraviolet radiation," says Sam Thurman, the missions flight-operations manager. Only minutes after the probeshitthe ground, the lander will follow, descending by parachute and braking engine. Bristling with cameras and sensors,itwill study Mars terrain and weather, snapping pictures both during its descent and on the surface. It will also carry a microphone to record for the first time the sound of the Martain wind. More important, the ship will be equipped with a robotic arm and scoop , much like the arms carried aboard the Viking landersinthe 1970s. Unlike the Vikings, though, which were able to paw just a few feeble cm into the Martian topsoil, the new ship will dig out a trench nearly 90 cm deep. How longallthis otherworldly hardware will operate is uncertain. The probes, powered by batteries, should wink out within three days. The lander, with robust solar panels to keepit humming, could last three months. But evenifthe systems do not survive that long, their work could be profound.After all, scientists have spent years studying just the Martian skin; this will be their first chance to dig a little deeper. 71. We learn from the first paragraph that,inorder to have a thorough knowledge of Mars, we need ___. A. to treat Mars with more respect than everB.to have more spacecraft orbit theRed Planet C. to protect the Red Planet morecarefully and not to woundit D. to penetrate the crust of theRed Planet to take Martian samples 72. Which of thefollowing is trueaccording to the passage? A. Thespacecraft that is to arriveinSeptember 1999 contains a pair of tapered pods. B. Mars Polar Lander w
