The Kind of Work Daddy Does
It is not surprising that modem children tend to look blank and dispirited when informed that they will someday have to "go to work and make a living. "The fact is they cannot visualiave what work is in corporate America.
Not so long ago, when a parent said he was off to work, the child knew very well what was about to happen. His parent was going to make something or fix something, The parent could take his offspring to his place of business and let him watch while he repaired a car or built a table.
When a child asked," What kind of work do you do, Daddy？" his father could answer in terms that a child could come to grips with. "I fix steam engines. ""I make horse collars."
Well, a few fathers still fix engines and build things, but most do not. Nowadays, most fathers sit in glass buildings performing tasks that are absolutely incomprehensible to children. Tile answers they gave when asked, "What kind of work do you do, Daddy？ "are likely to be very puzzling to the child.
"I sell space. ""I do market research. ""I am a data processor. ""I am in public relations. ""I am a systems analyst. "Such explanations must seem nonsense to a child. How can he possibly imagine anyone analyzing a system or researching a market？
Even grown men who do market research have trouble visualizing what a public relations man does with his day, and it is a safe bet that the average systems analyst is as puzzled about what a space saleman does at the shop as the average space salesman is about the tools needed to analyze a system.
In the common everyday job, nothing is made any more. Things are now made by machines. Very little is repaired. The machines that make things make them in such a fashion that they will quickly fall apart in such a way that repairs will be too expensive. Thus the buyer is encouraged to throw the thing away and buy a new one. In effect, the machines are making junk.
The handful of people remotely associated with these machines can, of course, tell thier inquisitive children" Daddy makes junk. "Most of the work force, however, is too remote from junk production to sense any contribution to the industry. What do these people do？
Consider the typical twelve - story glass building in the typical American city. Nothing is being made in this building and nothing is being repaired, including the building itself. Constructed as a piece of junk, the building will be discarded when it wears out , and another piece of junk will be set in its place.
Still, the building is filled with people who think of themselves as working. At any given moment during the day perhaps one - third of them will be talking into telephones. Most of these conversations will be about paper for paper is what occupies nearly everyone in this building.
Some jobs in the building require men to fill paper with words. There are persons who type neatly on paper and persons who read paper and jot notes in the margins. Some persons make copies of paper and other persons deliver paper. There are persons who file paper and persons who file paper.
Some persons mail paper. Some persons telephone other persons and ask that paper be sent to them. Others telephone to ascertain the whereabout of paper. Some persons confer about paper. In the grandest offices, men approve of some paper and disapprove of other paper.
The elevators are filled throughout the day with young men carrying paper from floor to floor and with vital men carrying paper to be discussed with other vital men.
What is a child to make of all this？ His father may be so important that he lunches with other men about paper. Suppose he brings his son to work to give the boy some idea of what work is all about. What does the boy see happening？
His father c
A．Y
B．N
C．NG
Water freeze at zero centigrade; the usual kind of antifreeze will not freeze until the temperature is 40℃ below zero. A mixture of five parts of water and four parts of antifreezes will prevent freezing at 18℃ below zero; four parts of water and five parts of antifreeze reduce this to 22℃ below zero.
Alcohol is a good antifreeze, but when the car is running it turns hot and the alcohol bums away, so it must be replaced very often. Most persons use antifreezes that do not boil away when the engine is running. There are many chemicals that do this. One of the most popular is called ethylene glycol, which is sold under various trade names such as Preston and Xerox.
The text is written_________.
A．to help to sell antifreezes
B．to explain what antifreezes are
C．to compare ethylene glycol with alcohol
D．to tell what kind of antifreeze to choose
In the normal walk of life, we come across people who are more popular than others. Popularity is a subjective phenomenon and many a sociologist is still trying to figure out what makes for popularity. A person with a bright personality is usually more popular than a person with a dull personality, right？ Beautiful people are usually more popular than ugly people, right？ Actually, it's hard to pinpoint (确定) what kind of personality is popular and what is unpopular.
Behavior. can be described as the manifestation of personality in response to a situation. No two persons will react to the same situation in the same manner. This is because of the person's personality. Let's take the example of an introvert and an extrovert. We shall create a situation to study how they behave in the same environment. The introvert and the extrovert are placed into two identical rooms at the same time. Every effort is taken to ensure that the environment is the same. They are told to read a book in 2 hours. Then, we ask a group of hooligans (小流氓) to go into the rooms and beat the rooms. How do you think the introvert and the extrovert will behave in such an environment？ We don't know but we know they will behave differently.
Are you satisfied with how your career is turning out？ You may not consciously know it but your personality has a great bearing of your job performance. If you are extremely shy and hate to socialize, you are not cut for a sales job or a PR(公共关系)position. You may try to change your ways and take on a more outgoing style. but you may not be happy. There are some personality characters which are inherent. If you know yourself well, you will find a career that suits your personality and excel in it.
We may infer from the first paragraph that______.
A．we have to face the world with masks
B．personality can be shown through one's actions
C．people's personalities are all fixed through their life
D．people's personalities are totally different from each other
听力原文： Sometimes we say that someone we know is "a square peg in a round hole." This simply means that the person we are talking about is not suited for the job he is doing. He may be a book keeper who really wants to be an actor or a mechanic who likes cooking. Unfortunately, many people in the world are "square pegs": they are not doing the kind of work they should be doing, for one mason or another. As a result, they probably are not doing a very good job and certainly they are not happy.
Choosing the right career is very important. Most of us spend a great part of our lives at our jobs. For that reason we should try to find out what our talents are and how we can use them. We can do this through aptitude tests, interviews with specialists, and study of books in our field of interest.
There are many careers open to each of us. Perhaps we like science. Then we might prepare ourselves to be chemists, physicists, or biologists. Maybe our interests take us into the business world and such work as accounting, personnel management or public relations. Many persons find their places in government service. Teaching, newspaper work, medicine, engineering—these and many other riel& offer fascinating careers to persons with talent and training.

听力原文： Different countries and different people have different manners. Before entering a house in some Asian countries, it is good manners to take off your shoes. In some European countries, even though shoes are very muddy, this is not done. A guest in a Chinese house sometimes does not finish a drink to show that enough has been had. In a Malay house, too, a guest always leaves a little food. In Eng land, a guest always finishes a drink to show that he or she enjoys it.
We should learn about the customs of other people, so that they will not think us ill-mannered. But people all over the world agree that being well-mannered really means being kind and helpful to others, especially to those older or weaker. If you remember this, you will not go wrong.
Here are some examples of the things that well-mannered people do and do not do. They never laugh at people when they are in trouble. They are always kind either to people or animals. When peo ple are waiting for a bus, or in a post office they line up to wait for their turn. On the bus, they give their seats to older people who are standing. If they accidentally bump into someone, or get in their way, they say "Excuse me" or "I'm sorry".
They say "Please" when making a request, and "Thank you" when they receive something. They do not sit down until other persons are seated. They do not talk too much about themselves. When they're eating, they do not speak with their mouths full of food.
What should you do before you enter a house in some Asian countries？
A．Take off your coat.
B．Take off your shoes.
C．Take off your hat.
