23.Read the following text. Choose the best word(s) for each numbered blank and mark [A], [B], [C] or [D] on ANSWER SHEET 1. (10 points) The ethical judgments of the Supreme Court justices have become an important issue recently. The court cannot 1 its legitimacy as guardian of the rule of law 2 justices behave like politicians. Yet, in several instances, justices acted in ways that 3 the court’s reputation for being independent and impartial. Justice Antonin Scalia, for example, appeared at political events. That kind of activity makes it less likely that the court’s decisions will be 4 as impartial judgments. Part of the problem is that the justices are not 5 by an ethics code. At the very least, the court should make itself 6 to the code of conduct that 7 to the rest of the federal judiciary. This and other similar cases 8 the question of whether there is still a 9 between the court and politics. The framers of the Constitution envisioned law 10 having authority apart from politics. They gave justices permanent positions 11 they would be free to 12 those in power and have no need to 13 political support. Our legal system was designed to set law apart from politics precisely because they are so closely 14 . Constitutional law is political because it results from choices rooted in fundamental social 15 like liberty and property. When the court deals with social policy decisions, the law it 16 is inescapably political—which is why decisions split along ideological lines are so easily 17 as unjust. The justices must 18 doubts about the court’s legitimacy by making themselves 19 to the code of conduct. That would make rulings more likely to be seen as separate from politics and, 20 , convincing as law.19．______ A.B. A. accessible C.D. B. amiable E.F. C. agreeable G.H. D. accountable
All around the world， lawyers generate more hostility（敌视） than the members of any other profession-with the possible exception of journalism. But there are few places where clients have more grounds for complaint than America. During the decade before the economic crisis，spending on legal services in America grew twice as fast as inflation（通货膨胀）. The best lawyers made skyscrapers-full of money，tempting ever more students to pile into law schools. But most law graduates never get a big-firm job. Many of them instead become the kind of nuisance-lawsuit filer that makes the tort system a costly nightmare. There are many reasons for this. One is the excessive costs of a legal education. There is just one path for a lawyer in most American states： a four-year undergraduate degree in some unrelated subjects，then a three-year law degree at one of 200 law schools authorized by the American Bar Association and an expensive preparation for the bar exam. This leaves today's average law-school graduate with ＄100，000 of debt on top of undergraduate debts. Law-school debt means that they have to work extremely hard. Reforming the system would help both lawyers and their customers. Sensible ideas have been around for a long time，but the state-level bodies that govern the profession have been too conservative（保守的）to implement（实施） them. One idea is to allow people to study law as an undergraduate degree. Another is to let students sit for the bar after only two years of law school. If the bar exam is truly a strict enough test for a would-be lawyer， those who can sit it earlier should be allowed to do so. Students who do not need the extra training could cut their debt mountain by a third. The other reason why costs are so high is the restrictive guild-like（行会）ownership structure of the business. Except in the District of Columbia，non-lawyers may not own any share of a law firm. This keeps fees high and innovation slow. There is pressure for change from within the profession，but opponents of change among the regulators insist that keeping outsiders out of a law firm isolates lawyers from the pressure to make money rather than serve clients ethically. In fact，allowing non-lawyers to own shares in law firms would reduce costs and improve services to customers，by encouraging law firms to use technology and to employ professional managers to focus on improving firms' efficiency. After all， other countries， such as Australia and Britain， have started liberalizing their legal professions. America should follow.（1）A lot of students take up law as their profession due to ____ .A. the growing demand from clients.B. the attraction of financial rewards.C. the prospect of working in big firms.D. the increasing pressure of inflation.（2）Which of the following adds to the costs of legal education in most American states？ ____ A. Pursuing a bachelor's degree in another major.B. Higher tuition fees for undergraduate studies.C. Admissions approval from the bar association.D. Receiving training by professional associations.（3）The obstacle to the reform of the legal system originates from ____ .A. Lawyers' and clients' strong resistance.B. the stern exam for would-be lawyers.C. the rigid bodies governing the profession.D. non-professionals' sharp criticism.（4）In this text， the author mainly discusses ____ .A. wrong ownership of America's law firms and causes.B. the factors that help make a successful lawyer in American.C. a problem in America's legal profession and solutions to it.D. the role of undergraduate studies in America's legal education.

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.
