　　The Storyteller

　　1. Steven Spielberg has always had one goal: to tell as many great stories to as many people as will listen. And that’s what he has always been about. The son of a computer scientist and a pianist, Spielberg spent his early childhood in New Jersey and, later, Arizona. From the very beginning, his fertile imagination filled his young mind with images that would later inspire his filmmaking.

　　2. Even decades later, Spielberg says he has clear memories of his earliest years, which are the origins of some of his biggest hits. He believes that E.T. is the result of the difficult years leading up to his parent’s 1966 divorce, “It is really about a young boy who was in search of some stability in his life.”“He was scared of just about everything,” recalls his mother, Leah Adler. “When trees brushed against the house, he would head into my bed. And that’s just the kind of scary stuff he would put in films like Poltergeist.”

　　3. Spielberg was 11 when he first got his hands on his dad’s movie camera and began shooting short flicks about flying saucers and World War ΙΙ battles. Spielberg’s talent for scary storytelling enabled him to make friends. On Boy Scout camping trips, when night fell, Spielberg became the center of attention. “Steven would start telling his ghost stories,” says Richard Y. Hoffman Jr., leader of Troop 294, “and everyone would suddenly get quiet so that they could all hear it.”

　　4. Spielberg moved to California with his father and went to high school there, but his grades were so bad that he barely graduated. Both UCLA and USC film schools rejected him, so he entered California State University at Long Beach because it was close to Hollywood. Spielberg was determined to make movies, and he managed to get an unpaid, non-credit internship(實(shí)習(xí))in Hollywood. Soon he was given a contract, and he dropped out of college. He never looked back.

　　5. Now, many years later, Spielberg is still telling stories with as much passion as the kid in the tent. Ask him where he gets his ideas, Spielberg shrugs. “The process for me is mostly intuitive (憑直覺(jué)的),” he says. “There are films that I feel I need to make, for a variety of reasons, for personal reasons, for reasons that I want to have fun, that the subject matter is cool, that I think my kids will like it. And sometimes I just think that it will make a lot of money, like the sequel(續(xù)集) to Jurassic Park.”

　　23. Paragraph 1___F___

　　24. Paragraph 2____A_____

　　25. Paragraph 3____E_____

　　26. Paragraph 4____D_____

　　A. Inspirations for his movies

　　B. The trouble of making movies

　　C. A funny man

　　D. Getting into the movie business

　　E. Telling stories to make friends

　　F. An aim of life

　　27. Some of Spielberg’s most successful movies came from ____E___

　　28. When Spielberg was a boy, he used to be scared of ____A_____

　　29. Spielberg is very good at _____B____

　　30. Spielberg says he makes movies for ____C____

　　A. almost everything

　　B. telling scary stories

　　C. a number of reasons

　　D. making children laugh

　　E. his childhood memories

　　F. a lot of money

　　第四部分 閱讀理解

　　第一篇 The Making of a Success Story

　　IKEA is the world's largest furniture retailer, and the man behind it is Ingvar Kamprad, one of the world's most successful entrepreneurs. Born in Sweden in 1926, Kamprad was a natural businessman. As a child, he enjoyed selling things and made small profits from selling matches, seeds, and pencils in his community. When Kamprad was 17, his father gave him some money as a reward for his good grades. Naturally he used it to start up a business一IKEA.

　　IKEA's name comes from Kamprad's initials (I.K.) and the place where he grew up ('E' and 'A'). Today IKEA is known for its modern, minimalist furniture1, but it was not a furniture company in the beginning. Rather, IKEA sold all kinds of miscellaneous goods. Kamprad's wares included anything that he could sell for profits at discounted prices2, including watches, pens and stockings.

　　IKEA first began to sell furniture through a mail-order catalogue in 1947. The fUrniture was all designed and made by manufacturers near Kamprad's home. Initial sales were very encouraging, so Kamprad expanded the product line. Furniture was such a successful aspect of the business that IKEA became solely a furniture company in 1951.

　　In 1953 IKEA opened its first showroom in Almhult, Sweden. IKEA is known today for its spacious stores with furniture iti attractive settings, but in the early 1950s, people ordered from catalogues. Thus response to the first showroom was overwhelmiig: people loved being able to see and try the furniture before buying it. This led to increased sales and the company continued to thrive. By 1955, IKEA was designing all its own furniture.

　　In 1956 Kamprad saw a man disassembling a table to make it easier to transport. Kamprad was inspired. The man had given him a great idea: flat packaging3. Flat packaging would mean lower shipping costs for IKEA and lower prices for customers. IKEA tried it and sales soared. The problem was that people had to assemble furniture themselves, but over time, even this grew into an advantage for IKEA. Nowadays, IKEA is often seen as having connotations of self-sufficiency. This image has done wonders for the company, leading to better sales and continued expansion.

　　Today there are over 200 stores in 32 countries. Amazingly, Ingvar Kamprad has managed to keep IKEA a privately-held company. In 2004 he was named the world's richest man. He currently lives in Switzerland and is retied from the day-to-day operations of IKEA. IKEA itself, though, just keeps on growing.

　　31. Kamprad established IKEA with

　　A . his personal savings

　　B . his father’s reward for his school performance

　　C . large profits from selling things

　　D . his school’s support

　　32. The author states in Paragraph 5 that flat packaging

　　A . needs large space to assembly fumiture

　　B . is a business concept inspired by Kamprad

　　C . helps reduce transportation costs

　　D . makes the company self-sufficient

　　33. According to the passage.which of the following is NOT true?

　　A . IKEA experienced rapid expansion since the late 1950s

　　B . IKEA designd its own products since 1955

　　C . IKEA sold all kinds of miscellaneous goods originally

　　D . Kamprad said his company after retirement

　　34. what is the auther’s attitude towards IKEA’s future according to

　　A . indifferent

　　B . Doubtful

　　C . Optimistic

　　D . Pessimistic

　　35. The passage is developed primarily in terms of

　　A . analysis of a process

　　B . examples that illustrate a problem

　　C . comanson and contrast

　　D . sequence events

　　答案：BCDCD

　　第二篇 Approaches to Understanding Intelligences

　　It bays to be smart, but we are not all smart in the same way .You may be a talented musician, but you might not be a good reader. Each of us is different.

　　Psychologists disagree about what is intelligence and what are talents or personal abilities .Psychologists have two different views on intelligence .Some believe there is one general intelligence .Others believe there are many different intelligences .

　　Some psychologists say there is one type of intelligence that can be measured with IQ tests .These psychologists support their view with research that concludes that people who do well on one kind of test for mental ability do well on other tests .They do well on tests using words, numbers or pictures. They do well on individual or group tests, and written or oral tests .Those who do poorly on one test, do the same on all tests.

　　Studies of the brain show that there is a biological basis for general intelligence .The brain of intelligence people use less energy during problem solving .The brain waves of people with higher intelligence show a quicker reaction .Some researchers conclude that differences in intelligence result from differences in the speed and effectiveness of information processing by the brain .

　　Howard Gardner, a psychologist at the Harvard School of Education, has four children .He believes that all children are different and shouldn’t be tested by one intelligence test .Although Gardner believes general intelligence exists, he doesn’t think it tells much about the talents of a person outside of formal schooling .He think that the human mind has different intelligences .These intelligences allow us to solve the kinds of problems we are presented with in life .Each of us has different abilities within these intelligences .Gardner believes that the purpose of school should be to encourage development of all of our intelligences .

　　Gardner says that his theory is based on biology .For example ,when one part of the Brain is injured ,other parts of the brain still work .People who cannot talk because of Brain damage can still sing .So ,there is not just one intelligence to lose .Gardner has Identified 8 different kinds of intelligence; linguistic, mathematical, spatial, musical, Interpersonal, intrapersonal, body-kinesthetic(身體動(dòng)覺(jué)的),and naturalistic .

　　36. What is the main idea of this passage?

　　A . The importance of intelligence

　　第三篇 The Workers' Role in Management

　　Traditionally， it has been the workers' role to work and management's role to manage. Managers have planned and directed the firm's operations with little thought to consulting the labor force. Managers have rarely felt compelled to obtain the workers' opinions or to explain their decisions to their employees. At most， companies have provided “suggestion boxes” in which workers could place ideas for improving procedures. In recent years， however， many management specialists have been arguing that workers are more than sellers of labor-they have a vital stake in the company and may be able to make significant contributions to its management. Furthermore， major company decisions profoundly affect workers and their dependents. This is particularly true of plant closings， which may put thousands on the unemployment lines. Should workers， then play a stronger role in management?

　　Workers should have a role in management. At the very least the labor force should be informed of major policy decisions. (A common complaint among rank-and-file workers is the lack of information about company policies and actions.)Between 1980 and 1985 about five million workers were the victims of plant closings and permanent layoffs， often with no warning. At least 90 days――notice ought to be given in such instances so that workers have time to adjust. Management should consult workers before closing a plant because the workers might be able to suggest ways of improving productivity and reducing costs and might be willing to make concessions that will help keep the plant operating.

　　It should become a general practice to include workers in some managerial decision making. There ought to be representatives of the workers on the firm's board of directors or other major policymaking groups. If rank-and-file workers are given a voice in the planning and management of the work flow， they will help to make improvements， their morale will rise， and their productivity will increase. As a further incentive they must be given a share in the company's profits. This can be done through employee stockownership plans， bonuses， or rewards for efficiency and productivity. Finally， when a plant can no longer operate at a profit， the workers should be given the opportunity to purchase the plant and run it themselves.

　　41. It can be inferred from Paragraph 1 that managers

　　A . were not qualified

　　B . seldom obtain workers opinion

　　C . dislike suggestion workers opinions

　　D . never consulted the tapor torce

　　42. In recent years，many management specialists have been arguing they

　　A . should have a say in management of the company

　　B . are no longer sellers of the products

　　C . are less affected by company decisions than before

　　D . are able to make final decisions for the company

　　43. The word rank-file Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to

　　A . senior

　　B . ordinary

　　C . intelligent

　　D . capable

　　44. According to the passage，what happened between 1980 and 1985

　　A . About five million workers were laid off without advance notice

　　B . Managers consulted workers before closing a plant

　　C . Workers did not make necessary concession

　　D . Many companies were closed because of strikes

　　45. If not give a voice in managerial decision making，workers

　　A . may lack the incentive to increase their productivity

　　B . cannot get a share in the company’s profits

　　C . can still get bonuses for efficiency and productivity

　　D . will not have the opportunity to purchase the plant

　　The Day a Language Died

　　When Carios Westez died at the age of 76. A language died, too.Westez, more commonly known as Red Thunder Cloud,was the last speaker of the Native American language Catawba.Anyone who wants to hear the songs of the Catawba can contact the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C., where, back in the 1940s, Red Thunder Cloud recorded a series of songs for future generations.( 46 )They are all that is left of the Catawba language. The language that people used to speak is gone forever.

　　We are all aware of the danger that modern industry can cause the world’s ecology(生態(tài)).However,few people are aware of the impact widely spoken languages have on other languages and ways of life. English has spread all over the world. Chinese, Spanish, Russian, and Hindi have become powerful languages as well. As these languages become more powerful, their use as tools of business and culture increases. As well,( 47 )When this happens, hundreds of languages that are spoken by only a few die out.　　Scholars believe there are around 6,000 languages around the world, but more than half of them could die out within the next 100 years. There are many examples,Araki is a the language of the island of Vanuatu, located in the Pacific Ocean.It is spoken by only a few older adults，so like Catawba，Araki will soon disappear. Many languages of ethiopia will have the same fate because each one has only a few speakers. ( 48 )In the Americas, 100 languages, each of which has fewer than 300 speakers, are dying out.

　　Red Thunder Cloud was one of the first to recognize the danger of language death and to try to do something about it. He was not actually born into the Catawba tribe, and the language was not his mother tongue.　( 49 ). The songs he sang for the Smithsonian Institution helped to make Native American music popular. Now he is gone, and the language is dead.

　　What does it mean for the rest of us when a language disappears?When a plant, insect, or animal species dies, it is easy to understand what has been lost and to for the balance of the natural word. However, language is only a product of the mind. To be the last remaining speaker of a language，like Red Thunder，must be a peculiarly lonely destiny, almost as strange and terrible as being the last surviving member of a dying species. ( 50 )

　　A . Some people might want to learn some of these songs by hearts.

　　B . Papus New Guines is an extremely rich source of different language，but more than 100 of them are in danger of extinction(滅絕).

　　C . However，he was a frequent visitor to the Catawba reservation in South Carcinoma where he learned the language.

　　D . There language don’t have many native speakers.

　　E . For the rest of us, when a language dies, we lose the possibility of a unique way of seeing and describing the world.

　　F . As these language become more powerful.their use as tools of business and culture increase.

　　Public relations

　　Public relations is a broad set of planned communications about the company， including publicity releases， designed to promote goodwill and a favorable image.

　　Publicity then is part of public relations when it is initiated by the firm， usually in the form of press releases or press conferences. Since public relations involves communications with stockholders， financial analysts， government officials， and other noncustomer groups， it is usually placed outside the marketing department， perhaps as a staff department or outside consulting firm reporting to top management. This organizational placement can be a limitation because the public relations department or consultant will likely not be in tune with marketing efforts. Poor communication and no coordination may be the consequences. Although the basic purpose of public relations is to provide positive influence on the public image， this influence generally may be less than that provided by the other components of the public image mix.

　　Publicity may be in the form of news releases that have favorable overtones for the company initiated by the public relations department. Publicity on the other hand should not be divorced from the marketing department， as it can provide a useful adjunct to the regular advertising. Furthermore， not all publicity is initiated by the firm; some can result from an unfavorable press as a reaction to certain actions or lack of actions that are controversial or even downright ill-advised.

　　The point we wish to emphasize is that a firm is deluding itself if it thinks its public relations function， whether within the company or an outside firm， can take care of public image problems and opportunities. Many factors impact on the public image. Many of these have to do with the way the firm does business， such as its product quality， the servicing and handling of complaints， and the tenor of the advertising. Public relations and directed publicity may help highlight favorable newsworthy events， and may even succeed in toning down the worst of unfavorable publicity， but the other components of the public image mix create more lasting impressions.
