推荐试题

Some people make you feel comfortable when they are around. You spend an hour with them and feel as if you have known them half your life. These people have something in common. And once we know what it is, we can try to do it ourselves.

How is it done? Here are several skills that good talkers have. If you follow the skills, they'll help people feel relaxed and make friends with them quickly.

First of all, good talkers ask questions. Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answer a question. One well-known businesswoman says, "At business lunches, I always ask people what they did that morning. It's a common question, but it will get things going." From there you can move on to other matters—sometimes to really personal questions. And how he answers will let you know how far you can go.   

Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to the answers. This point seems clear, but it isn't. Your questions should have a point and help to tell what sort of person you are talking to. And to find out, you really have to listen carefully and attentively. Real listening at least means some things. First it means not to change the subject of conversation. If someone sticks to one topic, you can take it as a fact that he's really interested in it. Real listening also means not just listening to words, but to tones of voice. If the voice sounds dull, then, it's time for you to change the subject.

Finally, good talkers know well how to deal with the moment of parting. If you're saying good-bye, you may give him a firm handshake and say, "I've really enjoyed meeting you." If you want to see that person again, don't keep it a secret. Let people know what you feel, and they may walk away feeling as if they've known you half their life.

1.Asking questions might be a quite good and suitable way _______.

A. for you to make more and more new friends   

B. to begin your business talks

C. to get the conversation going smoothly    

D. for you to make a deep and lasting impression on others

2.After having asked somebody a question, it'll be polite of you to _______.

A. make clear what kind of person he is          

B. listen to his reply attentively

C. wait quietly and patiently for his answer       

D. go on asking him more questions

3.Generally speaking, good talkers are persons who _______.

A. are good at making any topic interesting   

B. never talk too much or too little

C. always speak in a gentle way           

D. know how and when they should change the topic of the talk

4.If you really want to meet someone again, _______.

A. you may take him as your lifelong true friend

B. it seems necessary for you to let him know it

C. it's proper for you to give him a second handshake

D. it'll be helpful for you to have further understanding of him

 


People enjoy taking trips. But what are the reasons they leave home? One reason is for education. People travel because they want to learn more about other people and other places. They are curious about other cultures. When people are tourists, they get a quick look at different ways of living. Even a short look at another kind of lifestyle is an important lesson. On a trip, a person can learn directly by visiting museums and historic spots. What does a tourist learn who sees the art museums, visits the historical palaces and other scenic spots in Paris and shops along the River Seine? He gets a vivid picture, a real life of one of the French people. He learns about their attitudes(态度), how they feel about business, beauty and history.

What about the tourist who goes to Hong Kong? Does he get the same information that he could get from a book? He might read that Hong Kong is crowded, that there is less than 200 square meters of space for each person. But seeing and feeling the lack of space will impress him much more. He might read that there are nearly 200 vehicles for every kilometer of roadway. But the sight of so many vehicles parked along the roadside would be a much more vivid lesson. The tourist to Hong Kong will never forget the contrasts(对比,对照): the straight vertical lines of tall modern buildings and the moving lines of boats that people live in.

1.Why do people leave home to travel according to the passage?

A. For education.    B. For adventure.

C. To enjoy themselves.        D. To look for a different lifestyle.

A. It has many big and beautiful parks.

B. It is very crowded.

C. It has many historical spots.
