Solve the Bike-to-Work PuzzleOne question has been puzzling bike riders today: Why don't more people ride to work?On paper, cycling is a clear winner over the alternatives. It's good for the environment, your bank account, and your body. Moreover, it's just fun. But one factor beats them all: inconvenience in the busy streets.The truth is that cycling to work isn't as convenient as it may seem. The ideal biking route is an uninterrupted commute — short enough for going to work or recovery but also long enough to be part of a workout(体育锻炼).If your commute is too long for biking,consider dividing the round-trip across two days: drive to work in the morning with your bike on Day One, cycle home, cycle back on the morning of Day Two, then drive it all home.Another good choice is to drive only part way and ride from there, or combine a bike ride with public transport.In any case, you'll probably find that the challenges of riding to work aren't as great as they seem. And while a bike lane(车道) might not be the path of biggest convenience, it's still worth traveling down.1) What does the phrase "on paper" imply (line 1,para 2)?A.pparently.B.Obviously.C.In practice.D.In theory.2) What is the main factor that causes people to give up bicycle-riding?E.It is not convenient to ride a bike in a busy street.F.It is not easy to repair a bike when it breaks down.G.It is too tiring to ride a bike to work every day.H.It is too slow to reach the office in time.3) The ideal bicycle commute should be____.I.easy and relaxing for ridingJ.very short for going to work.K.an uninterrupted oneL.cut into several parts4) What are you advised to do if your commute is too long for biking?M.Ride your bicycle once or twice every week.N.Cycle one day and take a bus the other day.O.Divide the round-trip across two days.P.Cycle two days and rest for one day.5) What is the author's attitude toward commuting by bicycle?Q.Negative.R.Positive.S.Objective.T.Indifferent.

B Most Americans believe there are unspoken rules about mobile phone etiquette (礼节), according to an online poll. It may not seem like it when commuters are shouting down their cellphones to the dismay (冒犯) of other passengers, but most Americans believe there are unspoken rules about mobile phone etiquette. Checking emails, sending text messages and making telephone calls while in the company of others are rude. But most people questioned in an online poll said they would not be offended if they received an electronic thank you, instead of a written note, and 75 percent had no objections to anyone using laptops and cellphones in the bathroom. ＂Etiquette is first a question of awareness,＂ said etiquette expert Anna Post. But she described the results of the Harris Interactive poll commissioned by Intel as ＂pretty surprising statistics＂. Sixtytwo percent of the 2,625 adults who took part in the survey agreed that cellphones, laptops, netbooks and other electronic devices are part of daily life. Fiftyfive percent also thought the demands of business mean people must stay connected, even if it involves taking a laptop on a holiday or answering a cellphone during a meal. Nearly 90 percent of Americans think cellphone use is unacceptable during a religious service and 30 percent admitted they would be offended if they received an online gift wish. But more than half said that they intended to send an electronic greeting card, instead of a traditional one. ＂These are issues about common sense,＂ said Dr Genevieve Bell, an ethnographer and director of Intel’s User Experience Group, adding that the social rules of when and how it is appropriate to use the technology are still being formed. 【小题1】You are supposed to___________ when you are with your friend. A．ring up others by your phone B．read your emails C．talk with your friend about phone D．send messages 【小题2】According to the online poll, which of the following statements is TRUE?

C．More than half of the questioned people thought that phones are part of the daily life. D．Using phones in the religious services is accepted by all the people. 【小题3】When it refers to the greeting cards, ____________. A．now electronic greeting cards have taken place of the traditional cards B．only children like to greet each other by sending electronic cards C．most people intended to send traditional greeting cards by post D．the majority of people will send electronic cards to greet their friends 【小题4】What is the main idea of the passage? A．People use electronic devices more frequently. B．You are not supposed to talk loudly on phone in the public places. C．American show their great respect for the religion.

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.

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.

question or statement.Hot pot is a traditional dish in China. It is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of the Jin Dynasty. Hot pot's origins can be found in the dining practices of Mongolian horsemen who rode across the steppe and into northern China. Legend has it that the Mongols used their helmets as pots to simmer (炖) broth (汤底) over open fires, and cooked chunks of meat in the broth.Hot pot cooking seems to have spread to northern China during the Tang Dynasty. In the regional variations developed with different ingredients such as seafood. In the centuries that witnessed the growth of the Song Dynasty, hot pot moved — and changed — further south, with each successive region adapting it to their local ingredients and tastes.The ingredients in a hot pot vary a lot from region to region. Perhaps the most famous hot pot is the Chongqing or Sichuan hot pot. It features a dark red broth chock-full (塞满了的) of spices, chili peppers, and the uniquely mouth-numbing Sichuan peppers. In Beijing and elsewhere in the north, hot pot broth tends to be mild and, compared to its racy southern "cousins", a little light. In the northeast of China, a kind of local sauerkraut (酸菜) is used to add some tang (强烈的味道), making the broth a bit sour. People can choose a version of hot pot according to their taste.1 Hot pot is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of _______.A. the Jin Dynasty B. the Tang DynastyC. the Song Dynasty D. the Yuan Dynasty
