Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D.  Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.

    If you travel around the world, you will be surprised to find just how different the foreign customs can be     50     your own.

    A visitor to India would do well to remember that people there     51     it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table.

But in many     54     of India a shake of the head is a gesture that shows agreement or acceptance. Nodding your head when you are offered a     55     in Bulgaria is likely to leave you thirsty. In that country you shake your head to indicate "yes" — a nod indicates "no". The Arabs are     56     for their hospitality（好客）. At a meal in the Arabic countries, you will find that any drinking vessel（器皿）is filled again     57     again as soon as you drain it. The way to     58     that you have had enough is to take the cup or glass in your hand and give it a little shake from side to side or place your hand over the top.

    In Europe it is quite usual to     59   your legs when sitting talking to someone, even at an important meeting. Doing this when meeting an important person in Thailand, however, could     60     him or her unhappy. It is considered too informal an attitude     61    such an occasion. Also when in Thailand you are     62     supposed to touch the head of an adult — it's just not done. In Japan, it is quite usual for     63     to plan evening entertainment for themselves and leave their wives at home. In Europe such attitudes are disappearing.

    In recent years many countries of the world have been faced with the problem of how to make their workers more productive. Some experts claim the answer is to make jobs more varied. But

do more varied jobs lead to greater productivity? There is evidence to suggest that while variety certainly makes the workers' life more enjoyable, it does not actually make him work harder.

As far as increasing productivity is concerned, the variety is not an important factor.

    Other experts feel that giving the worker freedom to do his job in his own way is important and there is no doubt that this is true. The problem is that this kind of freedom cannot easily be given in the modern factory with its complicated machinery which must be used in a fixed way. Thus while freedom of choice may be important, there is usually very little that can be done to create it. Another important consideration is how much each worker contributes to the product he is making. In most factories the worker sees only one small part of the product. Some car factories are now experimenting with having many small production lines rather than large one, so that each worker contributes more to the production of the cars on his line. It would seem that not only is the degree of workers' contribution an important factor, therefore, but it is also one we can do something about.

    To what extent does more money lead to greater productivity? The workers themselves certainly think this is important. But perhaps they want more money only because the work they do is so boring. Money just lets them enjoy their spare time more. A similar argument may explain demands for shorter working hours. Perhaps if we succeed in making their jobs more interesting, they will neither want more money, nor will shorter working hours be so important to them.

68.Which of these possible factors leading to greater productivity is not true?

 A. To make jobs more varied.              

 B. To give the worker freedom to do his job in his own way.

 C. Degree of work contribution.

 D. Demands for longer working hours.

69. Why do workers want more money?________

 A. Because their jobs are too boring.                    B. In order to enjoy more spare time.

 C. To make their jobs more interesting.                D. To demand shorter working hours.

70.The last sentence in this passage means that if we succeed in making workers' jobs more interesting, ______.

 A. they will want more money

 B. they will demand shorter working hours

 C. more money and shorter working hours are important factors

 D. more money and shorter working hours will not be so important to them

71 . In this passage, the author tells us _______.

 A. how to make the workers more productive

 B. possible factors leading to greater efficiency

 C. to a certain extent more money lead to greater productivity

 D. how to make workers' jobs more interesting

    Modern man has cleared the forests for farmland and for wood,and has also carelessly burned them. More than that,though,he has also interfered with the invisible bonds between the living things in the forests. There are many examples of this kind of destruction. The harmfulness of man’s interference can be seen in what happened many years ago in the forest of the Kaibab plateau （凯亚巴布高原） of northern Arizona. Man tried to improve on the natural web of forest life and destroyed it instead.

     The Kaibab had a storybook forest of largesized pine,Douglas fir,white fir,blue and Engelmann spruce. In 1882 a visitor noted,"We,who have wandered through its forests and parks,have come to regard it as the most enchanting region it has ever been our privilege to visit."This was also the living place of the Rocky Mountain mule deer. Indians hunted there every autumn to gather meat and skins. The forest also had mountain lions,timber wolves and bobcats that kept the deer from multiplying too rapidly.

     Then,in 1906,President Theodore Roosevelt made the Kaibab a national game preserve. Deer hunting was forbidden. Government hunters started killing off the deer’s enemies. In 25 years’ time,6,250 mountain lions,wolves and bobcats were killed. Before the program,there were about 4,000 deer in the Kaibab,by 1924,there were about 100,000.

    The deer ate every leaf and twig they could reach. But there was not nearly enough food. Hunting of deer was permitted again. This caused a slight decrease in the deer herd，but a far greater loss resulted from starvation and disease. Some 60 percent of the deer herd died in two winters. By 1930 the herd had dropped to 20,000 animals. By 1942 it was down to 8,000.

76.The destruction of the environment of the Kaibab resulted from _________.

 A.turning the forest into cultivated land

 B.interfering with natural cycle of forest life

 C.forest fires caused by man’s carelessness

 D.cutting the trees for building materials

77."Engelmann spruce"（Para. 2） is most likely the name of__________ .

 A.a tree                   B.an animal                C.a mountain             D.a game

78.The number of the deer in the Kaibab had increased enormously in ______ years’ time.

 A.25                      B.6                      C.18                    D.12

79.Years later,large numbers of deer in the Kaibab died mainly because of ________.

 A.the cold                                            B.the organized kill

 C.the shortage of food                                  D.the poor management

   To learn English well you must learn about yourself. You must discover what your own special needs are in English. You should pick out what makes English different from your own language and concentrate on those parts. And above all, you should pick out your own personal weaknesses in English, pick out your own special problems, find out what mistakes you most often make and make a list of them.    

   It will be best if, in your preparation, you can practise doing the various sorts of work you will be asked to do in examination. You should then make a careful note of any mistakes you make more than once. Count up how many times you make each mistake, and the mistake you make most often should be at the top of your list, the next most common in second place, and so on.

   For example, if your own language is Japanese, you may find the problem of articles comes at the top of your list. If you speak German, you may find using some of the conjunctions is your biggest problem. If your mother tongue is French, you find you are always having trouble with some of prepositions. And if Italian is your language, you may constantly forget to use a suitable pronoun when you should.

    But these are only examples of mistakes typical of certain languages. They may or may not be your particular personal mistakes. As I say, these personal ones are the most important of all to discover.
