Part ⅠWriting Handle Criticism and Compliments Properly What we can see from the picture above is that a salesman in an office trying to promote a kind of hearing aid says: “It’s a special hearing aid. It filters out criticism and amplifies compliments.” Funny though it sounds, it reflects the improper way of handling criticism and compliments, which is not uncommon among some people. There is no doubt that criticism can sometimes do harm to people’s confidence and dignity and compliments can be encouraging. However, it is improper, even wrong to simply reject criticism and amplify compliments. On the one hand, criticism has a tremendous value for one’s growth and developments as human being, such as helping people to know their defects and adding to one’s self-knowledge, stopping one from erring, etc. On the other hand, compliments, especially deceptive ones made on purpose, will lead to blind optimism, which will hinder one from making right judgments, decisions or choices. To conclude, one cannot simply take a negative attitude toward criticism and welcome compliments excessively. A proper way is to accept beneficial criticism and refuse insincere compliments.

Each style has its own set of techniques and ideas. There are styles that mimic movements from animals and others that gather inspiration from various Chinese philosophies, myths and legends. Some styles put most of their focus into the harnessing of qi, while others concentrate on competition. The origin of Chinese martial arts has been attributed to the need for self-defense, hunting techniques and military training in ancient China. Historically, the influence of Chinese martial arts can be found in books and in the performance arts. Recently, those influences have extended to the movies and television that target a much wider audience. As a result, Chinese martial arts have spread beyond its ethnic roots and have a global appeal. 听力原文 Section ●A 1. W: I had prepared dinner for eight people before Mary called and said that she and her husband could not make it. M: That’s all right. I am just going to tell you I have invited Tom and his girlfriend. Q: How many people are coming to the dinner? 2. M: The city council has finally voted the funds to build a new high school. W: It’s about time they did it. I don’t know what took them so long. Q: What’s the woman’s opinion about the school? 3. M: Now, what’s your problem, Madam? W: Oh, yes. My husband bought this yellow skirt here yesterday. It is very nice, but it’s not the color I want. Have you got any blue ones? Q: What does the woman want to do? 4. M: Your yard is always so beautiful, Cathy. You must have a gardener. W: Oh, no. It would cost at least $50 a month to hire someone to do the work, so I do most of it myself. I enjoy taking care of the flowers, but I have to force myself to do the weeding and cut the grass. Q: What does Cathy dislike to do? 5. M: I want to take the very next flight to Albany. W: Well, the very next one leaves in two hours. It goes to Jacksonville, but you can make a connection to your destination. Q: How can the man get to his destination? 6. M: Prof. David, I was wondering if you could write a recommendation letter for me. W: Well, I can write one for you. But I’ll point out your limitation as well as your strength. Q: What can we learn from the conversation? 7. M: Jane, I missed Prof. White’s class yesterday. Could you tell me the homework he assigned us? W: Don’t worry, Prof. White was ill and he postponed the lesson to next Monday. Q: What do we learn from the conversation? 8. W: Will Richard be coming to the meeting tonight? M: He’s supposed to. But in fact he won’t be back from the vacation until the day after tomorrow. Q: Where is Richard now? Conversation One W: Good afternoon! How can I help you? M: This is the first time we travel by air and I don’t know what to do. Can you please tell me how to do this? W: Sure. First of all, you have to take your tickets and your bags to the check-in counter over there; they will take your bags and give you a card that allows you to get on the plane. You will also get a card that you can use to pick up your bags when you arrive. Next, you have to pay an airport fee. M: What is an airport fee? W: It helps pay for the airport construction. It costs about 50 yuan. When you have paid the fee, you must go through a security check. An officer will check your name on a computer and then make sure you are not bringing anything dangerous onto the plane. Your bags will go through a special machine so that the officers can see what you are bringing. M: OK, I see. What do we do after that? W: Then you can go to the gate. M: What gate? W: The boarding gate, through which you enter the plane. It’s just a door actually, and a counter where they check the card you get when you show your tickets. M: How do we know when it’s time to get on the plane? W: There will be a call about twenty minutes before your plane leaves. M: What do we need to do when we arrive? W: Nothing else except picking up your luggage. M: Thank you. That’s been very helpful. W: Not at all. Have a nice flight! Questions 9 to 11 are based on the conversation you have just heard. 9.

Conversation Two W: Can I help you? M: Yes. You see, I’ve bought this personal stereo at your shop three days ago. And I’m afraid it hasn’t really matched up to what I was told about it. W: I see, but what exactly is the matter? M: Well, first of all, there is this large scratch across the front of it. W: But you should have noticed that when you bought it. M: But it was inside the box, all sealed up. W: Well, I’m sorry. But it really is your responsibility to check the goods when you buy them. How are we to know that it wasn’t you who made this scratch? M: That’s ridiculous! But, anyway, it’s not the most important thing. I am really not happy about this other thing. W: And what is that? M: Look, it says here that the noise from it should be undetectable by other people. W: Yes, that’s right. M: But people can hear it. And it’s really embarrassing when I take the bus or the subway. W: Well, I’m sorry. But it must be the way you’re wearing the headphones. M: What? That’s absurd! Look, I know how to put earphones in my ears! Enough for this, and now I want to know what you are going to do about it. W: Well, I suppose we could exchange it for another model if you think it’s necessary. M: Yes, I certainly do. W: Well, if I just could have the receipt… M: Yes, well, there is a slight problem about the receipt. See, I have lost it already.

Section ●B Passage One Deep Springs is an American college. It is an unusual college. It is high in the White Mountains in California, not in a college town. The campus is a collection of old buildings with no beautiful classrooms. The only college-like thing about Deep Springs is its library. Students can study from the 17,000 books 24 hours a day. The library is never crowded as there are only 24 well-qualified male students at the college. In addition, there are only five full-time professors. These teachers believe in the idea of this college. They need to believe in it. They do not get much money. In fact, their salaries are only about 9,000 dollars a year plus room and meals. The school gives the young teachers as well as the students something more im portant than money. “Th ere is no place like Deep Springs,”says a second-year student from New York State. “Most colleges today are much the same but Deep Springs is not afraid to be different.”He says that students at his college are in a situation quite unlike in the other school. Students are there to learn and they cannot run away from problems. There is no place to escape to. At most colleges, students can close their book and go to a film. They can go out to restaurants or to parties. Deep Springs students have completely different alternatives. They can talk to each other or to their teachers. Another possible activity is to go to the library to study. They might decide to do some work. The students who don’t want to do any of these activities can go for a walk in the desert. Deep Springs is far from the world of restaurants and cinemas. There is not even a television set on campus. Questions 16 to 19 are based on the passage you have just heard. 16. What is the total number of books kept in the library of Deep Springs College? 17. What is true of the campus of Deep Springs College? 18. Which of the following is mentioned in the passage? 19. What can students at Deep Springs do in their spare time? Passage Two Are you afraid to raise your hand in class, even when you know the answer? If you are, most people would say that you’re shy. If you feel shy, you’re not alone. Nine out of ten people are at least a little shy. But however shy you are, scientific evidence seems to show that it isn’t your fault. You may have been born that way. How do psychologists measure shyness? One way is by observation. They keep detailed records of people’s actions─like how often these people speak to others, or how long it takes someone to say hello to a stranger. Another way to measure shyness is to ask people questions. The test only takes about 10 minutes. It asks questions like “Do you like going out a lot?” and “Do you have many friends?” People must answer either yes or no. These questions can predict how people actually behave in social situations. Suppose the test tells you that someone is shy. Chances are good that that person will act shyly. When scientists measure shyness, they’re really comparing degrees of shyness. In other words, when researchers say people are shy, they really mean they are shyer than others. Questions 19 to 22 are based on the passage you have just heard. 20. Why does the speaker say that it isn’t a fault to be shy? 21. What is one of the ways suggested by psychologists for measuring shyness? 22. What is the purpose of the psychologists in asking questions? Passage Three The British Broadcasting Corporation is rejecting more and more candidates applying for jobs, because they suffer from hearing loss. And this is due to a wide use of personal stereo systems. According to officials at the corporation, about three per cent of them fail to win jobs for this
