題目列表(包括答案和解析)

Prince Roman was a Polish nobleman, a captain in the army of Czar Nicholas of Russia. When his young wife died, the prince left the army and returned in sorrow to his native Poland.

In time, love for his country and its people took the place of his lost love. He joined a Polish rising against the Russians. The rising was crushed, and Prince Roman was taken prisoner. His relatives and friends begged the military court to have mercy on him.

The president of the court received these appeals kindly. He was a good Russian, but he was also a good-natured man. Russian hatred of Poles was not as fierce at that time as it became later; and the Russian felt sympathetic as soon as he saw the prince's thin, tired, sun-burnt face.

The court of three officers sat in a bare room, behind a long black table. Some clerks sat at the two ends, but no one else was there when the guards brought in the prince.

Those four walls shut out from Prince Roman all sights and sounds of freedom, all hopes of the future, all comforting thoughts. How much love for Poland remained in him then? How much love of life? He stood before his judges alone, having refused their permission to sit. He answered their first formal questions — his name and so on — clearly and politely although he felt too weary to talk.

Then the president of the court seemed to suggest how the young man could best help himself. He asked questions in a way that almost put the right answers in the prisoner's mouth.

“Didn't your wife's death drive you to despair? Wasn't your mind unbalanced by that sad event ?”

Prince Roman was silent.

"You were not fully responsible for you conduct, were you?"

Prince Roman was silent.

"You made a sudden blind decision to join the rising. You didn't realize that your actions were dangerous and dishonourable. Isn't that the truth of this unfortunate matter?"

The judges looked at the prisoner hopefully. In silence the prince reached for a pen and some paper. He wrote, "I joined the rising because I believe it was just." He pushed the paper towards the president, who took it and read it in silence.

Prince Roman was sentenced to hard work for life in the Siberian salt mines. It was a sentence of delayed death.

When Czar Nicholas read the report and sentence, he added in his own handwriting, "Make sure that this prisoner walks in chains every step of the way to Siberia."

1.What does the passage tell us of Poland at the time?

A．Polish officers in the Russian army had to return to Poland.

B．Russia was at war with Poland, so the Poles were enemies.

C．The Russians were very cruel rulers of Poland.

D．It was ruled by Russia, and Poles served in the Russian army.

2.How much love for Poland remained in the prince when he stood trial?

A．Not much, probably, after the failure of the rising.

B． More than he had ever felt before.

C．As much as he had ever felt.

D．The passage doesn't suggest an answer to the question.

A．he was trying to find excuse for the prince's conduct

B．the court wanted the prince to admit his own guilt

C．he wanted to learn the truth about the Polish rising

　　It is impossible not to make a mistake at some point in your life．We may as well accept that something will go wrong and we will be to blame．It is therefore sensible to work out some strategies for apologizing, and the best way to apologise is by letter．This way you can take care over every word you write－which you can’t do if you say sorry to someone in person．

　　We all say or do something that we wish we hadn’t said or done．You may say something that accidentally hurts someone, or you may provide a service which doesn’t come up to the standards that a client or customer expected．

　　You may feel that it was a genuine mistake which couldn’t be avoided．Rather than dwell on the mistake, you should quickly try to remedy(補救)the problem．An effective letter of apology is an important part of that process．

　　For the content of the letter, just remember TABS－Timing, Action, Brevity, Sincerity．

　　The timing of a letter of apology is vital－it must be sent as soon as possible．Any delay in sending the letter will only compound(使……更壞)the problem．In this case“Better late than never”is not the best motto!The longer you wait before writing a letter of apology, the more it will seem that you have been forced into writing it．

　　Although it is important to recognize what has gone before, it is also essential to detail the action you plan to take to put right whatever it was you did wrong．Research has shown that some indication that you have thought what future action you plan to take is always well received．

　　A letter of apology should be brief and the word“sorry”should appear no more than twice．Indicate that you are aware you are using it a second time“once again, I am so sorry for…”or“as I said earlier, I am really sorry about…”．Finally, the tone of the letter has to be sincere．In fact the combination of all the above factors will help in this respect．

　　And don’t think that letters are out of date in the email-oriented 21st century．An apology email can be worse than no apology at all!

(1)

The underlined expression“rather than dwell on the mistake”in the third paragraph means you ________．
[　　]
A．	don’t waste time worrying about it
B．	consider the problem
C．	forget about what happened
D．	analyze who was at fault

(2)

What kind of advice does the text suggest about apologizing?
[　　]
A．	It’s a good idea to send several emails to apologise and show you mean it．
B．	It’s a good idea to write a letter of apology as soon as something goes wrong．
C．	Write a long letter apologizing several times to make your point．
D．	Wait to see how they react to your letter before planning to do anything．

(3)

In the author’s opinion, ________ is the most important when writing a letter of apology．
[　　]
A．	brevity
B．	action
C．	timing
D．	sincerity

(4)

What kind of things do you NOT apologise for?
[　　]
A．	Services that are not as good as they should be．
B．	Genuine mistakes made by your friends．
C．	Car accidents while traveling around
D．	Causing offence or hurt to others．

(5)

How can timing compound problems?
[　　]
A．	If you write immediately, they will be suspicious．
B．	If you leave it for a few days, they will know it was your idea to write．
C．	Waiting for a few days before you write will show your sincerity．
D．	Waiting too long will make it worse because they won’t believe you mean it．

　　Think you're good at reading people's expressions? Well, think again．New software is ten per cent better at it than the average person．There's even a device to improve your emotional intelligence．

　　Every time you interact with people, you 　　1　　 unconscious signals that you're following what they're saying．　　2　　, you might nod to show that you're following or squint(瞇眼看)a bit to show that you've lost track．However, we're not very good at interpreting these signals．　　3　　 we only get it right about half of the time．

　　Now social X-ray glasses can help you 　　4　　 some of these signals better by means of a built-in camera 　　5　　 to software which 　　6　　 facial expressions．The six basic 　　7　　 facial states it recognizes are：thinking, agreeing, concentrating, interested, confused and disagreeing．The device can read 24 'feature points' on a face and 　　8　　 which of these six general facial states is being 　　9　　．You get the information via an earpiece, which tells you how the listener is responding．There's also a traffic light system displayed on the lens with a red, amber(yellowishbrown)or green light to show that the listener is interested, 　　10　　 interested or not interested．If it shows red, it's time to shut up!

　　The other novelty(something new)is sociometric badges．These are 　　11　　 to provide feedback on how often you're speaking, for how long and who with．Each person is represented by a dot, which is larger if you're talkative and smaller if not．If you speak in a monologue the dot will turn red, but if it's a dialogue it turns white．The interaction between speakers is represented by lines between them, so a thick line if two people speak a lot to each other and very thin if they 　　12　　 speak．The information is sent wirelessly to any device that can display it graphically．In one experiment, 　　13　　 some of the speakers started with very different dots, by the end of the experiment all the dots were more or less the same size and color, 　　14　　 that people had changed their behavior and made the interaction more even．

　　Think how differently our interactions with people could be if we could read their 　　15　　 to what we're saying with x-ray specs and track how well we work as a group with a sociometric badge! It's early days, but these devices may well transform how we interact with each other in the future．
