I was ten when I first sat with my grandmother behind the cashier(收银台) in her grocery store. __【1】__ I quickly learned the importance of treating customers politely and saying “thank you.”

At first I was paid in candy. __2__ I worked every day after school, and during the summer and on weekends and holidays from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. My father helped me set up a bank account._3__

By the time I was 12, my grandmother thought I had done such a good job that she promoted me to selling cosmetics(化妆品). I developed the ability to look customers directly in the eye. Even though I was just a kid, women would ask me such things as “What color do you think I should wear?” I took a real interest in their questions and was able to translate what they wanted into makeup(化妆) ideas. __4__

The job taught me a valuable lesson: to be a successful salesperson, you didn’t need to be a rocket scientist—you needed to be a great listener. __5__ Expect they are no longer women buying cosmetics from me; instead, they are kids who tell me which toys they would like to see designed and developed.

B. Before long, she let me sit there by myself.

D. Today I still carry that lesson with me: I listen to customers.

试题分析:本文为一篇记叙文,描写了我在10岁第一次打工和12岁买化妆品的经历,总结出作为一个优秀的销售人员应该要倾听顾客的经验

【1】B从后一句I quickly learned the importance of treating customers politely and sayingthank you. 可推知, 作者的祖母先让作者跟着她学, 然后让作者独立工作, 所以他很快懂得有礼貌地对待客人的重要性。故选B。

【2】A由上句At first I was paid in candy.可知,前面有at first, 和本项中的later一致。故选A

【3】G根据前一句的My father helped me set up a bank account.我父亲帮我建立一个银行账户,因此这句话说看我的钱增长比我买任何东西都更有回报,符合语境。故选G

【4】C根据I took a real interest in their questions and was able to translate what they wanted into makeup(化妆)ideas.我把她们的问题,真正的兴趣,能够转化成他们所想要的化妆的想法。后面紧接着说我我打破了化妆品销售记录。故选C

【5】D最后一段是用来总结道理的,第一句提到lesson教训,就可以知道后文跟教训有关。D现在,我仍然将倾听顾客铭记在心。符合题意,故选D

Michael Jordon is the greatest basketball player of all time. Once he was making a television commercial (广告). All Michael needed to do in the advertisement was to miss a shot.

For Michael, this was difficult. He had conditioned himself to succeed whenever he was throwing the ball. Every time he threw a basketball, it went in. Every time he tried to miss a shot, he failed. In total, it took him over 20 attempts (尝试) before he missed a shot.

For Michael, success is a strong habit. He had formed a habit that was so strong that it took him a lot of time to break it and “fail”.

【题目】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

All her life, my mother wanted busy children. It was very important that her house should remain at all times clean and tidy.

You could turn your back for a moment in my mother's house, leave a halfwritten letter on the dining room table, a magazine open on the chair, and turn around to find that my mother had “put it back where it belonged” as she explained.

My wife, on one of her first visits to my mother's house, placed a packet of biscuits on an end table and went to the kitchen to fetch a drink. When she returned, she found the packet had been removed. Confused (疑惑的), she set down her drink and went back to the kitchen for more biscuits, only to return to find that her drink had disappeared. Up to then she had guessed that everyone in my family held onto their drinks, so as not to make water rings on the end tables. Now she knows better.

These disappearances had a confusing effect on our family. We were all inclined to (有……的倾向) forgetfulness, and it was common for one of us, upon returning from the bathroom, to find that every sign of his work in progress had disappeared suddenly. “Do you remember what I was doing?”was a question frequently asked, but rarely answered.

Now my_sister_has_developed_a_secondhand_love_of_clean_windows, and my brother does the cleaning in his house, perhaps to avoid having to be the one to lift his feet. I try not to think about it too much, but I have at this later time started to dust the furniture once a week.
