Directions:There are 2 passages in this action. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfnished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A),B),C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. Passage One Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage. Team-building exercises have become popular for managers trying to increase organisational and team harmony and productivity. Unfortunately many employees resent compulsory bonding and often regard these thereises as a nuisance. A paper published this week by University of Sydney researchers in Social Networks has reported participants'feelings about team-building interventions(千预), revealing ethical implications in forcing employees to take part. "Many people see team-building activities as a waste of time, so we decided to look in more depth at what's behind this,"said the paper's lead researcher, Dr Peter Matous. "Teams are formed, combined and restructured. Staff are reloaded and office spaces redesigned. All this is done with the aim of improving workplace efficiency, collaboration and cohesion. But does any of this work?"said Dr Matous. The study found that team-building exercises which focused on the sharing of and intervening into personal attitudes and relationships between team members were considered too heavy-handed and intrusive, although the researchers say some degree of openness and vulnerability is often necessary to make deep, effective connections with colleagues. "Some participants were against team-building exercises because they were implicitly compulsory. They didn't welcome management's interest in their lives beyond their direct work performance,"said Matuss."Many people don't want to be forced into having fun or making friends, especially not on top of their busy jobs. They feel management is being too nosy or trying to control their lives too much." In this study the researchers recommended a self-disclosure(永宾) approach where participants were guided through a series of questions that allowed them to increasingly disclose personal information and values. The method is well-tested and has been shown to increase interpersonal closeness. However, to be successful it must be voluntary. The researchers said there are numerous schools of thought that propose differing psychological methods for strengthening relationships."With caution, many relational methods to improve teams and organisations can be borrowed from other fields. The question is how to apply them effectively to strengthen an entire collective, which is more than just the sum of individual relationships,"said Dr Matous, 46. Why are many employees opposed to team-building exercises? A) They consider such exercises annoying. B) They deem these exercises counter-productive. C) They see such exercises as harmful to harmony. D) They find these exercises too demanding. 2023,6/20(第3套)

Write your pieces of Chinese version in the proper space on your Answer Sheet Ⅱ.The aim of education or culture is merely the development of good taste in knowledge and good form in conduct. The cultured man or the ideal educated man is not necessarily one who is well-read or learned, but one who likes and dislikes the right things. To know what to love and what to hate is to have taste in knowledge. 1________Such persons have erudition (the quality of being knowledgeable), but no discernment; or taste, Erudition is a mere matter of stuffing fact or information, while taste or discernment is a matter of artistic judgment. 2.________This is particularly so with regard to historians; a book of history may be written with the most thorough scholarship, yet be totally lacking in insight or discernment, and in the judgment or interpretaion of persons and events in history, the author may show no originality or depth of understanding. Such a person, we say, has no taste in knowledge. To be well-informed, or to accumulate facts an details, is the easiest of all things. 3.________An educated man, therefor, is one who has the right loves and hatreds. This we call taste, and with taste comes charm. 4.________There is no doubt that we are surrounded in our adult life with a wealth of fraude: fame frauds, wealth frauds, patriotic frauds, political frauds, religious frauds and fraud poets, fraud artists, fraud dictators and frauds psychologists. When a psychoanalyst tells us that the performing of the functions of the bowels during childhood has a definite connection or that constipation leads to stinginess of character, all that a man with taste can do is to feel amused. 5.________PART Ⅵ WRITING (40minutes, 15 points )Directions: Write an essay of no less than 200 wors on the topic given below.

Jogging became popular some twenty years ago and has reminded a favorite way of keeping fit for lots of people, ff you have never tried it and are normally healthy, there is no reason why you shouldn’t start jogging today! It is basically running at a steady speed over short or longer distances. It is a form of exercise which can be enjoyed by males and females of any age. Teenagers can jog and so, with caution, can people in their seventies and eighties. Most people jog for half an hour or forty-five minutes each day but you can jog longer if you choose! One of the main advantages that jogging has over many other sports is that it can be done anywhere. People jog around college campuses, around housing estates, in parks, in the countryside and even in urban areas. Special courts, fields, pitches and running tracks are not necessary. Similarly, no special equipment is required―no costly bats, rackets or balls―and no expensive sports kit. Good quality running shoes are advisable, but otherwise the jogger can simply wear loose, comfortable clothing. Special jogging suits are widely available these days and can be bought quite cheaply but these are not essential. In addition to being able to jog anywhere, you can also jog at any time, in any season! It’s not unusual to see joggers exercising in a solo sports. You don’t need to wait until you have gathered a team or found a partner. You can jog alone. There’s no harm, of course, in jogging with a friend or partner and you may even prefer to have the company and motivation which a companion provides―but only if it’s convenient. One of the greatest freedoms of jogging is simply being able to do it, whether it’s early in the morning or late at night. A few words of warning, however: lone female joggers should be especially careful to choose sensible jogging routes, particularly at night time, to minimize the risk of inviting unsolicited interest. The act of jogging doesn’t require any special training or skill. You do need to be basically healthy (and, if you are in any doubt, you should consult your doctor) but then, after a few basic warm-up bends and stretches, you are ready to begin. You simply start running, gently, and then build up to a steady pace. You then maintain that pave over your chosen distance. Jogging is not sprinting so do not over-tire yourself by trying to go too fast. A steady, comfortable pace is your aim. Don’t overdo things. Jogging is excellent for keeping fit. It’s good for the lungs, the heart and the circulation. It’s both easy and convenient. Why don’t you try it If you require more information, talk to one of the instructors at the sports centre. We’re only too happy to help. Please remember, if you do decide to jog: talk to your doctor first if you have any heath worries. And, ladies, do not jog alone in quiet places, especially after dark. Happy jogging!What’s the author’s special suggestion to ladies who decide to jog A．It is a form of exercise that every lady can choose.B．Talk to one of the instructors at the sports center.C．A few basic warm-up bends and stretches are necessary before jogging.D．Do not jog alone along secluded ways after dark.

The Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, is perhaps the most popular set of novels of the modern era. With seven books and many successful films to its name, the series has gathered about 15 billion dollars in sales. How did the series become so popular? The reason can be broken down into several areas.The first book in the series was rejected 12 times before it was picked up by Bloomsbury—a small publisher in England. So receiving this contract was Rowling's first step to success. However, getting a book contract does not ensure the success of a book. The story was soon loved by children and adults alike. In light of this, Bloomsbury Publishing published a second version of the books with “adult” (less colorful and more boring) book covers. This made it easier for a full range of ages to enjoy the series.Another factor that worked like a charm was that the publisher and Rowling herself, through the books, conducted midnight releases, promotions, and pre-ordering more readers. Customers who feared that their local bookstore would run out of copies responded by pre-ordering over 700,000 copies before the July 8, 2000 release.What does the underlined word “releases” (Para. 3) mean?A. The activity that frees or expresses energy or emotion.B. The announcement about the book’s publishing information.C. The sales of books that is available only at midnight.

Most children with healthy appetites are ready to eat almost anything that is offered them and a child rarely dislikes food (51) it is badly cooked. The way a meal is cooked and served is most important and an (52) served meal will often improve a child’s appetite. Never ask a child whether he likes or dislikes a food and never (53) likes and dislikes in front of him or allow anybody else to do so. If the father says he hates fat meat or the mother refuses vegetables in the child’s hearing he is (54) to copy this procedure. Take it (55) granted that he likes everything and he probably will. Nothing healthful should be omitted from the meal because of a (56) dislike. At meal times it is a good idea to give a child a small portion and let him (57) back for a second helping rather than give him as much as he is likely to eat all at once. Do not talk too much to the child (58) meal times, but let him get on with his food, and do not allow him to leave the table immediately after a meal or he will soon learn to swallow his food (59) he can hurry back to his toys.

The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator. Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding. [共5题](1)What kind of manager is needed in present international business and foreign investment? [本题2分]A. The man who represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation. B. The man with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. C. The man who is wealthy and impersonal. D. The man who can negotiate with his foreign counterparts.

Americans experience more food recalls (召回) today than they did five years ago, especially when it comes to meat and poultry (家禽). Meat and poultry recalls increased by two-thirds from 2013 to 2018, while food recalls overall went up 10%, according to the report recently published by the U.S. Public Interest Research Group.Meanwhile, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates (估计) 48 million people get sick, 128,000 are hospitalized and 3,000 die from food-borne disease each year in the U.S. "We are looking for the farm-to-fork preventative solutions," said Adam Garber, the research group's consumer watchdog. "By doing that, we can protect people's health."Over the five-year period, poultry posted the most recalls (168), followed by beef (137) and pork (128). The report shows the most serious meat recalls are on the rise. Among meat and poultry, the number of Class I recalls has increased by 83%, nearly doubling. Class I, the most serious of the recalls, is issued when there is a reasonable probability that the food will cause health problems or death.53. When would Class I recalls be issued?A. When the food is likely to cause health problems or death.B. When there are too many complaints from customers.C. When the food problem lasts for five years.D. When the product quality is below standard.
