[主观题]

I strongly believe that it is rather important to be a good listener. And although I have

become a better listener than I was ten years ago, I have to admit I'm still only an adequate listener.

Effective listening is more than simply avoiding the bad habit of interrupting others while they are speaking or finishing their sentences. It's being content to listen to the entire thought of someone rather than waiting impatiently for your chance to respond. In some ways, the way we fail to listen is symbolic of the way we live. We often treat communication as if it were a race. It's almost like our goal is to have no gaps between the conclusion of the sentence of the person we are speaking with and the beginning of our own. My wife and I were recently at a cafeteria having lunch, overhearing the conversation around us. It seemed that no one was really listening to one another; instead they were taking turns not listening to one another. I asked my wife if I still did the same thing. With a smile on her face she said, "only sometimes".

Slowing down your responses and becoming a better listener aids you in becoming a more peaceful person. It takes pressure from you. If you think about it, you'll notice that it takes an enormous amount of energy and is very stressful to be sitting at the edge of your seat trying to guess what the person in front of you (or on the telephone) is going to say so that you can fire back your responses. But as you wait for the person you are communicating with to finish, as you simply listen more carefully to what is being said, you'll notice that the pressure you feel is off. You will immediately feel more relaxed, and so will the people you are talking to. They will feel safe in slowing down their own responses because they won't feel in competition with you for "air time"! Not only will becoming a better listener make you a more patient person, it will also enhance the quality of your relationships. Everyone loves to talk to someone who truly listens to what they are saying.

According to the passage, an effective listener should ______.

A．accept the speaker's thought critically

B．respond to the speaker's words slowly

C．wait for the chance to respond patiently

D．reply the speaker's questions patiently

听力原文：It is my firm belief that men and women are equal. I cannot accept that some role

s are more suitable for males than for females. As far as I am concerned, men and women are equally capable of learning all skills.

In my view, parents should share household tasks and childcare. I think the division of labor should depend on individual circumstances. It seems to me that we can learn most things if we try. It's unwise to suggest that women should take care of most of the practical aspects of childcare because they are more patient, more gentle and more skilled at it. Men can be just as skilled in these areas if they have practice!

Of course, I acknowledge that men are often physically stronger than women and are therefore better at doing certain types of physical work. And I don't deny that one individual may be better at cooking, for example, than the other. But I reject the suggestion that cleaning, washing and ironing are women's work. I strongly believe that we should question all types of sexual stereotyping. If you ask me, there's no such thing as "women's work". There's no reason at all why a man shouldn't do the ironing! My husband does all the ironing in our house — and I do all the electrical repairs!

A．Some jobs are more suitable for men than for women.

？Read this text taken from an article about how an event planner organizes the events and

manages diverse individual personalities and takes control with style. and grace.

？Choose the best sentence to fill each of the gaps.

？For each gap 9—14, mark one letter (A—H) on your Answer Sheet.

？Do not use any letter more than once.

Creativity on Demand

As an event planner, who designs and orchestrates every type of event from corporate affairs to weddings, it’s my responsibility to put together and manage the individual creative teams that are contributing to the occasions. H

One of the greatest challenges of my job, yet one of its most rewarding aspects, is working with creative people on a day-to-day basis. I deal with a lot of high-profile, artistic individuals people who are extremely knowledgeable and well known in their own right. They are passionate and talented, curing and wonderful individuals who often have their own vision of how they want particular elements of events designed and executed. Therein lies the challenge. (9) .

When you are working with creative minds, it's crucial to keep them on track so they don't go off on tangents and disrupt the project's rhythm or production schedule. This means taking a very active management role. (10) . If needed, I will take the person aside and remind him that producing an event is a team effort and not a platform. for an individual to shine. If you can't get the creative team leaders to accept some kind of direction and parameters, then you must strongly consider removing them from the project and not hiring them in the future, however brilliant they are. (11) If I have a client who insists on hiring him, I decline the project.

At the same time, you do have to trust your most talented people. People in general always produce better results when you trust them trust that they are going to perform. not only to your expectations but to their highest levels. People hate being micromanaged because it implies that you don't respect or trust them. (12) I make sure that my people understand their position within the project while giving them the latitude to express their abilities, talents, and ideas.

When you want people to produce at their peak levels, empowerment and communication are vital. I strongly believe in communication it's what I do all day. I am constantly on the phone or in meetings. Communication doesn't always have. to be direct, of course, and I am a tremendous fan of e-mail. (13) Obviously, as a leader, you cannot do all the communicating yourself. The key is to identify the items that you really must communicate yourself and delegate the rest. (14) Inspiring and motivating a team to perform. at the top of its game is exciting and sometimes exhausting. But the process is always very rewarding. You learn a huge amount from your creative people, and they constantly surprise you with their ideas.

A For example, I worked with a very well-known and talented but very self-centered florist, whose volatile behavior. would wreak havoc on the team and affect the overall event production, and now I just won't work with him.

B As the event producer, it's my responsibility to keep everyone focused on the overall concept and design and to work with each team leader to ensure that the teams move forward in the same direction, all while minimizing difficulties and drama.

C The trick, I believe, is learning how to manage diverse individual personalities and take control with style. and grace.

D Of course, for that to work you need to have an associate who can function as your right-hand person.

E When seven people have to change four tires, fill up a gas tank, make quick adjustments to

n of three more nuclear power stations. These will form. a vital part of the government's energy plans for the next two decades and are needed to satisfy the country's growing demands for electricity. The plans were strongly criticised by opposition MP's as well as anti-nuclear and environmentalist groups.

W: They must be absolutely mad, more nuclear power stations!

M: OK. Jane. But we've got to get the energy from somewhere, haven't we？ We can't just go on using oil and coal.

W: Look. The main point is they're just net safe. They're a real menace, everyone of these things is an accident waiting to happen. Look at Chernobyl, for goodness' sake!

M: Yes, OK, I agree there's a risk. Of course there is. But it's minimal. With modern technology, nuclear reactors are much safer:

W: Much safer! You must be joking. No. Look at all that radioactive waste they're dumping into the sea and underground. Nobody re ally knows what'll happen long-terms.

M: That is a problem. Sure. But it's also true that nuclear energy is cheap and can produce electricity very quickly. Lots of countries have no alternatives. They don't have any oil, coal or anything. What are they supposed to do？

W: Oh, come on! There're lots of possibilities. Well, quite a few. We just haven't really looked at them seriously enough. There's solar energy, and wind power and, what's called wave power. We've still got a lot of coal.

W: Alright. But they'll all take time and money to develop. We need energy now and nuclear power is the best alternative.

M: Oh, I don't believe this. I reckon it's just crazy.

Attitudes to AIDS Now

Most people say that the USA is making progress in fighting AIDS,but they don't know there'sno cure and strongly disagree that "the AIDS epidemic(流行)is over, "a new survey finds.

The findings, released Thursday by the Kaiser Family Foundation, reassure activists who haveworried that public concern about AIDS might disappear in light of recent news about advances intreatment and declines in deaths.

"While people are very optimistic about the advances, they're still realistic about the fact thatthere is no cure" , says Sophia Chang, director of HIV programs at the foundation.

The Kaiser survey,like a recent USA TODAY Gallup Poll(民意测验) ,does find that the numberof people ranking AIDS as the country's top health problem has fallen. In the Kaiser p011,38% say it'sthe top concern,down from 44% in a 1996 poll;in the Gallup P011,29% say AIDS is No. l,down from41% in 1992 and 67% in 1987.

Other findings from Kaiser,which polled more than l,200 adults in September and October andasked additional questions of another l,000 adults in November:

52% say the country is making progress against AIDS,up from 32% in 1995.

51% say the government spends too little on AIDS.

86% correctly say AIDS drugs can now lengthen lives; an equal number correctly say that thedrugs are not cures.

67% incorrectly say that AIDS deaths increased or stayed the same in the past year;24% knowdeaths fell.

Daniel Zingale, director of AIDS Action (Council, says, "I'm encouraged that the American people are get-ting the message that the AIDS epidemic isn't over. I hope the decision-makers in Washington are getting thesame message. . . We have seen signs of complacency(得意).

Most people in the USA believe that

A.advances have been made in treating AIDS

B.AIDS is no longer an epidemic

C.AIDS is killing more people than before.

D.there is still no cure for AIDS.
