【题目】任务型阅读
When difficult people express themselves orally, they generally want at least two things: they're been heard and they're been understood. As a good communicator should be a good listener, five steps are advocated towards good listening.
The first step is cooperating. In fact, it's through the way you look and should while he is talking. You do this by nodding your head in agreement, making certain sounds of understanding.
When the person begins to repeat what's been said, it's signal of step two: turning back. It means that you repeat back some words he is using, sending a clear signal that you're listening carefully and that you think what he is saying is important.
At this point, you start to gather information about what is being communicated. Ask some open-ended questions, which will allow you to figure out what intention he is hoping to satisfy.
The fourth step is to summarize what you've heard. This allows you to make sure that both you and the difficult person are on the same page. When you do this, two things happen. First, if you've shown that you're making an effort to understand completely. Having listened carefully, you've now arrived at the point of confirming with the person that he feels that his thoughts have been fully voiced.
When enough sincere listening, questioning, and remembering are brought together, understanding is usually achieved and a difficult person becomes less difficult and more cooperative.
A. You may help him to fully express his thoughts and feelings.
B. Why does this happen?
C. Ask if he feels understood.
D. This increases possibility of gaining cooperation from him.
E. Talk with him about what he thinks of his expression.
F. Having heard what he has to say, the next step is clarifying.
G. How does a difficult person know that you're listening and understanding?

【题目】C

On one of her trips to New York several years ago, Eudora Welty decided to take a couple of New York friends out to dinner. They settled in at a comfortable East Slide cafe and within minutes, another customer was approaching their table.

Hey, arent you from Mississippi? the elegant, white-haired writer remembered being asked by the stranger. Im from Mississippi too.

Without a second thought, the woman joined the Welty party. When her dinner partner showed up, she also pulled up a chair.

They began telling me all the news of Mississippi, Welty said. I didnt know what my New York friends were thinking.

Taxis on a rainy New York night are rarer than sunshine. By the time the group got up to leave, it was pouring outside. Weltys new friends immediately sent a waiter to find a cab. Heading back downtown toward her hotel, her big-city friends were amazed at the turn of events that had changed their Big Apple dinner into a Mississippi state reunion(团聚).

My friends said: Now we believe your stories,’" Welty added. And I said: Now you know. These are the people that make me write them.’"

Sitting on a sofa in her room, Welty, a slim figure in a simple gray dress, looked pleased with this explanation.

I dont make them up, she said of the characters in her fiction these last 50 or so years. I dont have to.

Beauticians, bartenders, piano players and people with purple hats, Weltys people come from afternoons spent visiting with old friends, from walks through the streets of her native Jackson, Miss., from conversations overheard on a bus. It annoys Welty that, at 78, her left ear has now given out. Sometimes, sitting on a bus or a train, she hears only a fragment(片段) of a particularly interesting story.

【1】What happened when Welty was with her friends at the cafe?

A. Two strangers joined her.

B. Her childhood friends came in.

C. A heavy rain ruined the dinner.

D. Some people held a party there.

【2】The underlined word them in Paragraph 6 refers to Weltys _______.

A. readers B. parties C. friends D. stories

【3】What can we learn about the characters in Weltys fiction?

A. They live in big cities. B. They are mostly women.

C. They come from real life. D. They are pleasure seekers.
