Passage 1 /<Zy-+3  
    Guthrie's contiguity principle offers practical suggestions for how to break _LxV)   
babies. _T<ney}Y<  
    One application of the thrcshoM method involves the time young children o#4Wn'E  
spend on academic activities. Young children have short attention spans, so the hnmFhJ !g  
length of time they can sustain work on one activity is limited. Most activities JIjqGxR  
are scheduled to last no longer than 30 to 40 minutes. However, at the start of 2P"@=bYT"  
the school year, attention spans quickly wane and behavior problems often LdDkd(k  
result. To apply Gutiarie's theory, a teacher might, at the start of the year, limit k;#$Oxa>t=  
activities to 15 to 20 minutes. Over the next few weeks the teacher could XGk8Ki3w  
gredually increase the time students spend working on a single activity. T<mk98CdE  
    The threshold methoci also can be applied to teaching printing abd ,iB)8Km@U  
handwriting. When children first learn to form letters, their movements kS[k*bN0  
awkward and they lack free motor coordination. The distances between lines on \b1I<4(  
a page are purposely wide so children can fit the letters into the space. If paper P5%DvZB$w  
with narrow lines is initially introduced, students' letters would spill over the \V+$2 :A  
borders and students might become frustrated. Once students can form letters P>0j]?RB  
within the larger borders, they can use paper with smaller borders to help them GKZn|<Y|{c  
refine their skills. ^{zwIH2I]  
    The fatigue method can be applied when disciplining disruptive students ?k<wI)JR  
who build paper airplanes and sail them across the room. The teacher can ZL+{?1&-  
remove the students from the classroom, We them a large stack of paper, and !3-mPG< ]  
tell them to start making paper airplanes. After the students have made several e-]k{_wm  
airplanes, the activity should lose its attraction and paper will become a cue for i/, G=yA  
not building airplanes. yaa+j8s]  
    Some students continually race around the gym when they first enter their .]k(7F!W  
physical education class. To employ the fatigue method, theteacher might FwBktuS  
decide to have these students continue to run a few more laps after the class has ^8 AV#a  
begun. hOO)0IrIM*  
    The incompatible response method can be used with students who talk and 'N,x=1R5  
misbehave in the media center. Reading is incompatible with talking. The RC ND|X  
media center teacher might ask the students'to find interesting books and read &dbX>u q  
them while in the center. Assuming that the studentS find the books enjoyable, 1;?b-FEq:  
the media center will, over time, become a cue for selecting and reading books &pZ]F=.r+  
rather than for talking with other students. ' f}^/`J  
  In a social studies class some students regularly fall asleep. The teacher h7~&rWb  
realized that using the board and overhead projector while lecturing was very 5\S)8j `8  
boring. Soon the teacher began to incorporate other elements into each lesson, ceH7Rq:4W  
such as experiments, videotapes, and debates, in an attempt to involvs students KG4~t=J`  
and raise their interest in the course. rw ^^12)  
41. The purpose of this passage is to___ 1k-^LdDj  
A. inform       B. persuade       C. debate     D. narrate ?N,a {#w  
42. Guthrie identified three methods for__ s,]6Lri`\  
A. educating students         B. altering bad habits :* /<eT_  
C. avoiding undesired action       D. forming good hobbies B5=L</Aj  
43. Which of the following is not the example of applying the threshold f2uog$H k  
method? YV. *8'*  
A. Parents introduce spinach in small bites or mixed with a food than the E{wVf_K  
    child enjoys over time so that the child will not refuse to eat it. wAF>C[<\  
B. Teachers introduce academic content in short blocks of time for young lU:z>gC  
    children and gradually increase session length but not to where students H1s{JJAM>i  
    become frustrated or bored. {|%5}\%  
C. Paper with wider lines is first used and then paper with narrow lines is c ?V,a`6  
    introduced step by step to help children learn printing and handwriting. : b $ M  
D. A child might be made to throw toys until it is no longer fan by his #y-OkGS ^  
    parents in order to change his behavior of repeatedly throwing toys. 0=t_ a]+  
44. To stop snacking while watching television, people should keep their hands y{!`4CxF  
  busy by sewing, painting, working crossword puzzles, and so forth. Over %/1`"M5ko  
  time. watching TV becomes a cue for engaging in an activity other than X H{5E4P  
  snac 'king. What method is used in this example? MCz +l0  
A. The threshold method.             B. The fatigue method. rya 4sxCh  
C. The incompatible response method.     D. The punishment method. e%wbUr]c2  
45. We can draw the conclusion from the passage that B?#@<2*=L  
A. The incompatible response method is to force child to make unwanted qW;nWfkYC  
    response repeatedly in presence of stimulus until he or she becomes UrN$nhH  
    exhausted F] M3/M  
B. The threshold method refers to introducing undesired behavior with a ?uk|x!Ko]  
    response incompatible with the undesired response so they can not be l*B;/ >nR  
    performed simultaneously }eEF/o  
C. The fatigue method means that engaging in the behavior is transformde sBwkHsDD  
    into avoiding it by introducing the stimulus at full strength so it becomes /5U?4l(6[f  
    a cue for not performing it 6CY_8/:zL  
D. The fatigue method is that in presence of stimulus teachers have child m[ifcDZ(e  
    make response incompatible with unwanted response rf1-E57#  
Passage 2 k}F;e_  
  The increase in global trade means that international companies cannot Ev*HH+:b>  
afford to make costly advertising mistakes if they want to be competitive. KXicy_@DC`  
  Understanding the language and culture of target markets in foreign #V4_.t#  
countries is one of the keys to successful international marketing. Too many j><.tA~i  
companies, however, have jumped into foreign markets with embarrassing `=q)-y_C  
wralts . Kc{fT^E  
  Translation mistakes are at the heart of many blunders in international +~w '?vNc  
advertising. ]#3=GFs/  
  General Motors, the US auto manufacturer, got a costly lesson when it o] )qv~o)  
introduced its Chevrole Nova to the Puerto Rican market. "Nova" is Latin for 5x=tOR/h  
new (star)" and means "star" in many languages, but in spoken Spanish it can al#yc  
sound like "no va", meaning "it doesn't go". Few people wanted to buy a car 9)l[$X  
with that cursed meaning. When GM changed the name to Caribe, sales 5:^dyF&sm{  
picked up" dramatically. :rk]o*  
  Marketing blunders have also been made by food and beverage companies. Bz /NFNi[p  
3ne American food company's friendly "Jolly Green Giant" (for advertising a)y8MGx?  
,egetables) became something quite different when it was translated into A g/z\kX  
Arabic as "Intimidating Green Ogre". { U-VInu  
  When translated into German Pepsi's popular slogan, "Come Alive with /+02 BP  
Pepsi" came out implying "Come Alive from the Grave". No wonder customers P(A%z2Ql  
in Germany didn't rush out to buy Pepsi. oBAD4qK  
  Successful international marketing doesn't stop with good i~ zL,/O8  
ranslafions--,-other aspects of culture must be researched and understood ff s {$c8  
aarketers are to avoid blunders. ]J_Dn\  
  When marketers do not understand and appreciate the values, tastes, < 8WS YZ  
geography, climate, superstitions, religion, or economy of a culture, they fail to )Bd+jli|s  
capture their target market. G} }oeS  
  For example, an American designer tried to introduce a new pentare ihto 3smcCQA%  
  the Latin American market but the product aroused little interest. The mail HZfcLDrO  
  reason was that the camellia used in it was traditionally used for funerals in ?A,gDk/#  
  many South American countries. r&Za*TD^  
    Having awakened to the special nature of foreign advertising, companies b>I -4  
are becoming much more conscientious in their translations and more sensitive @36^4E>h  
to cultural distinctions. 1c?,= ;>  
                                      ZaXK=%z  
  The best way to prevent errors is to hire professional translators who iK=H9j  
understand the target language and its idiomatic usage, or to use a technique !Bu<6  
called "back translation" to reduce the possibility of blunders. w;r -TLf  
    The process uses one person to translate a message into the target z\fD}`^8  
language and another to translate it back. Effective translators aim to capture bF?EuL  
the, overall message of an advertisement because a word-for-word duplication fs~n{z,ja%  
of the original rarely conveys the intended meaning and often causes Y5PIR9-  
misunderstandings. L-G186B$r  
  In designing advertisements for other countries, messages need to be shot X3X~`~bAD  
and simple. B^$l]cvZ  
  They should also avoid jokes, since what is considered funny in one part )p12SGR5  
of the world may not be so humorous in another. P,D >gxl

  A. Culture Is Very Important ia Advertishag ~g>15b3

Passage 3 Vy-S9=  
  It is not unusual for chief executives to collect millions of dollars a year in #c/v2  
pay, stock options, and bonuses. In the last fifteen years, while executive hn!$?Vo.  
remuneration rose, taxes in the highest income bracket went down. Millionaires r=&PUT+vt  
are now commonplace. R+!2 j  
  Amiability is not a prerequisite for rising to the top, and there are a 9iS3.LCfX  
number of chief executive officers with legendary bad tempers. It is not the GIZNHG   
boss's job to worry about the well-being of his subordinates although the man WYaDN:kZf  
with many enemies wi!! be swept out more quickly in hard times; it is the (W@ ypK@  
company he worries about . His business savvy is supposed to be based on w2$HP/90j  
intimate knowledge of .his company and the industry .so he goes home nightly cpE&Fba}"  
with a full briefcase. At the very top - and on the way up - executives are !lu$WJ{M  
exceedingly dedicated. A9lqVMp64  
  The American executive must be capable of enough small talk to get him pF"z)E|^  
through the social part of his schedule, but he is probably not a highly cultured K=06I  
individual or an intellectual. Although his wife may be on the board of the !L3Bvb;Q  
symphony or opera, he himself has little time for such pursuits. His reading :B=`^>RK  
may largely concern business and management, despite interests in other fields. dHOz;4_  
Golf provides him with a sportive outlet that combines with some useful ?0_i{BvN  
socializing. U*a!Gn7l  
  These days, he probably attempts some form of aerobic exercise to "keep s|{K?s  
the old heart in shape" and for the same reason goes easy on butter and alcohol, (G$m}ng  
and substances thought to contribute to taking highly stressed executives out of lbv, jS  
the running. But his doctor's admonition to "take it easy" falls on deaf eyes. He ~r=TVHjqi  
likes to work. He knows there are younger men nipping at his heels. Gl1`Nx0  
  Corporate head-hunting, carried on by "executive search fares," is a UdLC]  
growing industry. America has great faith in individual talent, and dynamic and 9`09.`U9[  
aggressive executives are so in demand that companies regularly raid each *]Vx=7 D  
other's managerial ranks. 9sT?"(=  
51. We can infer from the second paragraph that___ K"=v| a.  
    A. promotion depends on amiability Ogjjjy84vM  
    B. chief executives do not work hard enough at the top level N8nyTPw  
    C. it is the duty of the chief executive to look after the well-being of his ~:+g+Mf~[  
      subordinates 0tsll1  
    D. a chief executive is expected to know more about his company and the CZ&TUE|:DA  
    industry H!45w;,I  
52. The term "aerobic exercise" (fa'st line in second last paragraph) is a kind Of y*7ht {B

    A. hallucination exercise Dri1A%  
    B. physical exercise (U7%Z<

Passage 4 [S<DdTY9hZ  
  In November 1970 Yukio Mishima, together withsome of his fanatical Qe4  
followers from the ultranationalistic Shield Society WhiCh. he had four, dod in D<rjxP  
1966, broke into the headquarters of Japan's Eastern Defense Forces armed A+ f{j  
with swords and daggers, overpowered some aides, tied up the commanding Mv9s  
general, and demanded that the troops be assembled to hear a speech. Mishima o?%x!m>  
addressed the troops for ten minutes, inciting them to rebel against the p(U'Ydl~  
constitutional govemment imposed by the United States that had, in his words, xw=B4u'z  
"turned Japan spineless." Receiving only ridicule in response, he returned to the _QErQ ^`  
general's office and there, before the general's unbelieving eyes, proceeded to >"Hj=?  
kill himself in strict accordance with the tradifonal samurai ritual of seppuku. 5Pr<%}[S^  
After Mishima had driven a dagger deep into his left abdomen, one of his aides HML6<U-eS  
severed his head with a sword. The aide likewise 'killed himself and was F`ihw[ Wn  
5eheaded; the others surrendered. oS`F Yy  
    In 1936 there had been a similar revolt and, though equally unsuccessful, - jyD!(  
it had foreshadowed the repressive re,me of General Tojo that was to stage tho ):\ pD]e  
attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. That earlier revolt is the one referred to in U ^,ld`  
"Patriotism," one of Mishima's most powerful stories. Here life and fiction BHK_=2WYz  
become joined. The act of seppuku was for Mishima a fulfdlment, "the ultimate T&S< 0  
dream of my life." Bom of an ancient samurai family, he longed to die a hero's zO+nEsf^O  
death in accordance with the ancient samurai code; but his weak body kept him \u)(+t{  
from service in the war, and he had to compensate through body building (he ]c5Shj5|p  
became expert at karate and kendo) and, most important, through the discipline W!Xgse3  
  writing. In his short lifetime he turned out twenty novels, thirty plays, many f{)*"  
essays, and more than eighty stories: he also produced, directed, and acted in 91,\y  
movies, and even sang on stage. His first book of stories, A Forest in Flower, *".7O*jjV  
appeared in 1943, but it was Confession of a Mask (1948), dealing with the g =%W"v  
meditations of a young man of homosexual leanings in a repressive society, that *i\7dJ Dj  
brought him fame. epwXv|aSZ

SHEET. H37Z\xS  
One might ask why speculation is permitted when there is so real a danger of x^;n fqn|  
loss. The basic reason is that speculation can perform useful functions in the AHLDURv  
economy. Buying a commodity or stock in the belief that prices will rise speeds A^m hPBT_  
market equilibrium and encourages faster entry of more suppliers. If the price \myc n/e  
change lagged until after an actual commodity shortage had occurred, the kz??""G7/  
fluctuation would probably be sharper and more sudden. Remedial supply }\irr9,   
action could not be further delayed. Similarly, if speculators foresee a surplus in D2hvf ^g'*  
some commodity, their selling of futures will help drive the price down to some dNyc|P`U  
extent before the SurpluS actually occurs. When speculators foresee a shortage .p5*&i 7  
and bid up the price, they are also helphng to conserve the present supply. As 1"e=Zqn$)  
the price goes up,less of the commodity is purchased; a rise in price 00Rk%QV  
encourages users to ecor, om2ze. Similarly, a lowering of price encourages users R@EFG%|`_  
to buy more, thus helping to sell the surplus which is developing. %?g]{
