Society is a web of relationships, requiring all parties(群体) to work together to create something good. What makes society work best are effective(有效的) relationships that are based on mutual(相互的) understanding. If you understand what people want and why they want it, you can usually find a way to make progress together.                   

High-quality relationships make people happy. Some people living in the poorest communities have almost nothing but turn out to be the happiest because they share a life, together. If effective relationships are working, happiness is always possible.

    Here are some simple tips for building effective relationships.

    Listen to and try to understand others' positions and feelings. Listening in itself can lead to understanding, and if you understand someone else fully, then you know how to work better with him or her.

    Openly express your needs and feeling. Sometimes we expect people particularly those close to us at home or work to understand what we want and to give us what we need intuitively (凭直 觉地). However, people are so complicated and so different that even when they have lived together for 60 years, they can still surprise each other. So we need to say what we need and to express how we feel.

    In order to make our relationships more effective, we should treat ourselves and other people with respect. Respect is one of the most important elements of any good relationship.

    Finally, learn to face differences correctly. Learning this takes time and can be uncomfortable. However, if we can try to remove differences in an effective way, we are more likely to build exciting and satisfying relationships with others.

    By doing these things you may discover that the happiness you long for is much closer than you thought.

C
 Being considered a leader in our society is indeed of high praise. Leadership means power, commands, respect and, most important, encourages achievement. Unlike vitamin C, leadership skills can’t be easily swallowed down. They must be carefully cultivated.
 Different from popular belief, most good leaders are made, not born. They learn their skills in their everyday lives. But which do they develop?How do they (and how can you) get others to follow?
 Always give credit. Many leaders note that the most efficient way to get a good performance from others is to treat them like heroes. Giving public credit to someone who has earned it is the best leadership technique in the world. It is also an act of generosity (慷慨) that’s never forgotten.
 Giving credit is more effective than even the most constructive criticism (批评), which often hurts rather than helps. Kenneth Blanchard, the author of The One-Minute Manager, agrees. “Catch people doing something right!” he says. Then tell everyone about it.
 Take informed risks. “The best leaders know that taking a risk is not a thoughtless exercise,” says management adviser Marilyn Machlowitz. “Sky divers don’t go up in an airplane without checking the parachutes (降落伞) beforehand.”
 Because the idea of risk also carries with it the possibility of failure, many of us usually wait for others to take charge. But if you want to be a leader, you must learn to fail and not die a thousand deaths. Pick yourself up and start all over again.
 Encourage enthusiasm (热情). “When people understand the important of work, they lend their mental strengths,” says Lee Ducat. But when they get excited about the work, all their energy gets poured into the job. That’s a great force! Is this the best way to create excitement? Be enthusiastic yourself. You will be followed by everyone.
64.The underlined word “cultivated” (in paragraph1) roughly means ________.
A.encouraged    B.compared   C.examined    D.developed
65.The part “always give credit” tells us that a leader should _______.
A.give helpful criticism            B.regard others as real heroes
C.praise people for their good performances   D.praise everyone
66.To be a good leader, you should _______.
A.not be afraid of any risks           B.think twice before taking risks
C.try to avoid any possible failures        D.know what a thoughtless exercise is
67.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A.Leadership is of skills and techniques       B.Leadership is very important
C.Not many can be leaders           D.How to be a leader

A new era is upon us. Call it what you will: the service economy, the information age, the knowledge society. It has changed the way we work. Already we’re partly there. The percentage of people who earn their living by making things has fallen dramatically in the Western World. Today the majority of jobs in America, Europe and Japan (two thirds or more in many of these countries) are in the service industry, and the number is on the rise. More women are in the work force than ever before. There are more part-time jobs. More people are self-employed. But the breadth (广度) of the economic transformation can’t be measured by numbers alone, because it also is giving rise to a basic new way of thinking about the nature of work itself. Long-held concepts about jobs and careers, the skills needed to succeed, even the relation between individuals and employers — all these are being challenged.

We have only to look behind us to get some sense of what may lie ahead. No one looking ahead 20 years possibly could have foreseen the ways in which a single invention, the chip (芯片), would transform our world thanks to its applications in personal computers, digital communications and factory robots. Tomorrow’s achievements in biotechnology, artificial intelligence or even some still unimagined technology could produce a similar wave of dramatic changes. But one thing is certain: information and knowledge will become even more important, and the people who possess it, whether they work in manufacturing (制造业) or services, will have the advantage and produce the wealth. Computer knowledge will become as basic a requirement as the ability to read and write. The ability to solve problems by applying information instead of performing routine tasks will be valued above all else. If you cast your mind ahead 10 years, information services will be predominant (最重要的). It will be the way you do your job.

1.One of the great changes caused by the knowledge society is that ______.

A.most people have to take part-time jobs

B.people have to change their jobs from time to time

C.people’s traditional concepts about work are no longer completely true

D.the difference between the employee and the employer has become unimportant

2.The future will probably belong to those who ______.

A.have more brains

B.are involved in the service industries

C.cast their mind ahead instead of looking back

D.possess and know how to make use of information

3.Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?

A.Computers and the knowledge society

B.Features and meanings of the New Era

C.Service Industries in the Modern Society

D.Rapid Advancement of Information Technology

 

British society is considered to be divided into three main groups of classes-the upper class,the middle class.and the lower or working class.This is known as the class system and it is important to know something about it if you mean to understand British people and society.Most British people grow up with a deep knowledge and understanding of the class system even if they are not very conscious(意识到的)of it.As a result,more people know which class they belong to and are able to tell which class other people come from by the way they speak,the kind of clothes they wear,their interests and hobbies or even the type of food they eat.

    Social class is not only about behavior and attitudes.For example,although many upper class people are rich and may own a lot of land,having a lot of money does not necessarily make a person one member of the upper class.It is also important to come from a particular kind of family,have friends who are considered suitable,have been to a certain type of private school and speak with the right kind of accent.There are people who are poor but who do not think of themselves as working class because their family background,education,political opinions,etc.are basically different from those of most working-class people.Many people do not like the class system but it is impossible to pretend that these differences do not exist or that British people do not sometimes form opinions in this way.

1.The idea of the class system in Britain __________.

    A.exists only in the mind of foreigners   B.is deeply rooted in the British people

    C.is now under attack                D.is regarded as a long custom

    A.he belongs to the middle class

    B.he must be a member of the upper class

    A.Many rich people do not belong to the upper class.

    B.Today many British people do not like the class system.

    C.Many poor people do not consider themselves a lower class.

A.An Unequal Society               B.Social Class in Britain

C.British People and Society          D.Information about Britain

 

 

A serious problem for today’s society is who should be responsible for our elderly and how to improve their lives. It is not only a financial problem but also a question of the system we want for our society. I would like to suggest several possible solutions to this problem.

First, employers should take the responsibility for their retried employees. To make this possible,  a percentage of profits should be set aside for this purpose. But when a company must  take life long responsibility for its employees, it may suffer from a commercial disadvantage due to higher employee costs.

Another way of solving the problem is to return the responsibility to the individual. This means each person must save during his working years to pay for his years of retirement. This does not seem a very fair model since some people have enough trouble paying for their daily life without trying to earn extra to cover their retirement years. This means the government might have to step in to care for the poor.

In addition, the government could take responsibility for the care of the elderly. This could be financed through government taxes to increase the level of pensions. Furthermore, some institutions should be created for senior citizens, which can help provide a comfortable life for them. Unfortunately , as the present situation in our country shows, this is not a truly viable  answer. The government can seldom afford to care for the elderly, particularly when it is busy trying to care for the young.

One further solution is that the government or social organizations establish some workplaces especially for the elderly where they are independent.

To sum up, all these options have advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, it is reasonable to expect that some combination of these options may be needed to provide the care we hope to give to our elderly generations.

66. What is the passage mainly about?

The problem faced by the old in society.

Why we should take responsibility for the old.

How we can improve the lives of the old

Where the old can go to get their pensions.

According to the passage, how can the government help to improve the lives of retired people?

Set aside some profits to help people with problems after they retire

Increase saving levels of people during their working years

Increase the discounts for food and transport for the old

Make available pensions for those who have retired

The underlined word “viable” most probably means ____.

A. impossible   B. practical   C. usefull   D. successful

69. What can be concluded from the passage?

   A. Taking care of the old is mainly an issue of money

   B. Employers should allow their workers to retire at a later age

   C. Becoming independent should be the goal of most old people

   D. There is no single solution to the problem of the old

70. What is the writer’s main purpose of writing this article?

   A. To point out the need for government supporting for old people

   B. To make general readers aware of the problems of retired people

   C. To discuss some possible solutions to an important social problem

   D. To instruct retired people on how they can have a happier life.
