17.Successful people in international business understand the cultures of other countries and learn to change their practices in different cultures.They understand the importance of avoiding business decisions based on misconceptions-mistaken ideas.
One cause of misconceptions is ethnocentrism,the belief that one's own culture's way of doing things is better than the way of other cultures.It's ethnocentrism that leads to failure in international business.To avoid ethnocentrism,it's necessary to study the different elements(组成部分)of culture:language,values and attitudes,and customs and manners.
Language
A.knowledge of the local language can help international business people in four ways.First,people can communicate directly.Second,people are usually more open in their communication with someone who speaks their language.Third,an understanding of the language allows people to infer meanings that are not said directly.Finally,knowing the language helps people to understand the culture better.
Values are people's basic beliefs about the difference between right and wrong,good and bad.An attitude is a way of thinking or acting.Values and attitudes influence international business.For example,many people in the United States believe that chocolate from Switzerland is better than chocolate from other countries,and they buy a lot of it.
Customs and manners
Customs are common social practices.Manners are ways of acting that the society believes are polite.For example,in the United States,it is the custom to have salad (色拉) before the main course at dinner,not after.It's not acceptable to talk with food in mouth at table.Failure to understand the customs and manners of other countries will bring difficulty selling their products.Orange juice as a breakfast drink of an American company in France doesn't sell well because the French don't usually drink juice with breakfast.

57.A.knowledge of the local language allows international business peopleB.
A.to be more open with their customers
B.to communicate without outside help
C.to express their thoughts indirectly
D.to have a better idea of their own culture
58.The act of many people buying chocolate of Switzerland shows the role ofC.
A.manners        
B.values        
C.attitudes        
D.customs
59.What would be the best title for the text?C
A.Misconceptions in Business            
B.Basic Beliefs in Business
C.International Business Culture           
D.Successful International Business
60.The author's purpose of writing this article is to tell peopleB

1.Dear Friend,
The recent success of children's books has made the general public aware that there's a huge market out there.
And there's a growing need for new writers trained to create the 3 billion worth of children's books bought each year…plus stories and articles needed by over 650 publishers of magazines for children and teenagers.
Who are these needed writers?They're ordinary folks like you and me.
But am I good enough?
I was once where you might be now.My thoughts of writing had been pushed down by self-doubt,and I didn't know where to turn for help.
Then,I accepted a free offer from the Institute to test my writing aptitude(潜能),and it turned out to be the inspiration I needed.
The promise that paid off
The Institute made the same promise to me that they will make to you,if you show basic writing ability:
You will complete at least one manuscript(手稿) suitable to hand in to a publisher by the time you finish our course.
I really didn't expect any publication before I finished the course,but that happened.I sold three stories.And I soon discovered that was not unusual at the Institute.
Since graduation,I have authored 34 nationally published children's books and over 300 stories and articles.
Free test and brochure
We offer a free aptitude test and will send you a copy of our brochure describing our recognized home-study courses on the basis of one-on-one training.
Realize your writing dream today.There's nothing sadder than a dream delayed until it fades forever.
 
Sincerely,
KimiKristi Holl,Instructor
Institute of Children's Literature

18.Lisa was running late.Lisa,25,had a lot to do at work,plus visitors on the way:her parents were coming in for Thanksgiving from her hometown.But as she hurried down the subway stairs,she started to feel uncomfortably warln.By the time she got to the platform,Lisa felt weak and tired--maybe it hadn't been a good idea to give blood the night before,she thought.She rested herself against a post close to the tracks.
Several yards away,Frank,43,and his girlfriend,Jennifer,found a spot close to where the front of the train would stop.They were deep in discussion about a house they were thinking of buying.
But when he heard the scream,followed by someone yelling,"Oh,my God,she fell in!"Frank didn't hesitate.He jumped down to the tracks and ran some 40feet toward the body lying on the rails."No!Not you!"his girlfriend screamed after him.
She was right to be alarmed.By the time Frank reached Lisa,he could feel the tracks shaking and see the light coming.The train was about 20seconds from the station.
It was hard to lift her.She was just out.But he managed to raise her the four feet to the platform so that bystanders could hold her by the grins and drag her away from the edge.That was where Lisa briefly regained consciousness,felt herself being pulled along the ground,and saw someone else holding her purse.
Lisa thought she'd been robbed.A woman held her hand and a man gave his shirt to help stop the blood pouring from her head.And she tried to talk but she couldn't,and that was when she realized how much pain she was in.
Police and fire officials soon arrived,and Frank told the story to an officer.Jennifer said her boyfriend was calm on their 40一minute train ride downtown-just as he had been seconds after the rescue,which made her think about her reaction at the time."I saw the train coming and 1was thinking he was going to die,"she explained.

41.What was the most probable cause for Lisa's weakness?D
A.She had run a long way.
B.She felt hot in the subway.
C.She had done a 1ot of work.
D.She had donated blood the night before.
42.Why did Jennifer try to stop her boyfriend?D
A.Because they would miss their train.
B.Because he didn't see the train coming.
C.Because she was sure Lisa was hard to lift.
D.Because she was afraid the train would kill him.
43.How did Frank save Lisa?A
A.By lifting her to the platform.
B.By helping her rise to her feet.
C.By pulling her along the ground.
D.By dragging her away from the edge.
44.When did Lisa become conscious again?B
A.When the train was leaving.
B.After she was back on the platform.
C.After the police and fire officials came.
D.When a man was cleaning the blood from her head.
45.The passage is intended toC
A.warn us of the danger in the subway

Hi Tom,
Nice to read your e-mail today.I notice you've begun to use Chinese idioms and used most of them correctly.
However,I'm afraid there is one mistake I'd like to point out.It is"无所不为".This idiom means"do all kinds of bad things".Are you dong all kinds of bad things at home?I guess what you were really trying to say is that you've got nothing to do these days.In that case,you should use"无所事事".We usually use"无所不为"to express the idea that people dare to do anything bad,and"无所事事"to describe the situation in which people have got nothing meaningful to do.Have I made myself clear?
Anyway,I'm amazed at the progress you've made.
Hope you'll find a job soon.
Huahua.
