Passage 1 / \OjtE  
    Guthrie's contiguity principle offers practical suggestions for how to break mpN|U(n  
babies. : 3*(kb1)&  
    One application of the thrcshoM method involves the time young children L%I@HB9-Q0  
spend on academic activities. Young children have short attention spans, so the #2/k^N4r  
length of time they can sustain work on one activity is limited. Most activities yB,$4:C  
are scheduled to last no longer than 30 to 40 minutes. However, at the start of ^vfp;  
the school year, attention spans quickly wane and behavior problems often 9qIjs$g  
result. To apply Gutiarie's theory, a teacher might, at the start of the year, limit 4h|sbB"t  
activities to 15 to 20 minutes. Over the next few weeks the teacher could 4ZSc'9e9  
gredually increase the time students spend working on a single activity. 6XKiVP;h%  
    The threshold methoci also can be applied to teaching printing abd `[X5mEe  
handwriting. When children first learn to form letters, their movements /X9Kg  
awkward and they lack free motor coordination. The distances between lines on Am{Vtl)i  
a page are purposely wide so children can fit the letters into the space. If paper [x{'NwP?  
with narrow lines is initially introduced, students' letters would spill over the luY#l!mx3  
borders and students might become frustrated. Once students can form letters 7vF+Di(B  
within the larger borders, they can use paper with smaller borders to help them Mj2`p#5wKh  
refine their skills. Gx,<|v  
    The fatigue method can be applied when disciplining disruptive students #R-l2OO^]  
who build paper airplanes and sail them across the room. The teacher can I($0&Y\De  
remove the students from the classroom, We them a large stack of paper, and Y HSdaocp  
tell them to start making paper airplanes. After the students have made several Utd`T+AF*  
airplanes, the activity should lose its attraction and paper will become a cue for Z8I  Y!d  
not building airplanes. ;&RBg+Pr  
    Some students continually race around the gym when they first enter their 9EHhVi  
physical education class. To employ the fatigue method, theteacher might {wA(%e3_  
decide to have these students continue to run a few more laps after the class has R2,Z`I  
begun. a=@]Ov/  
    The incompatible response method can be used with students who talk and %dn!$[D@  
misbehave in the media center. Reading is incompatible with talking. The .6C9N{?Tqf  
media center teacher might ask the students'to find interesting books and read uC$!|I  
them while in the center. Assuming that the studentS find the books enjoyable, gV~_m  
the media center will, over time, become a cue for selecting and reading books w eX%S&#?  
rather than for talking with other students. ]WFr5  
  In a social studies class some students regularly fall asleep. The teacher i=3~ h Zl  
realized that using the board and overhead projector while lecturing was very 8=TM _  
boring. Soon the teacher began to incorporate other elements into each lesson, )?y ${T   
such as experiments, videotapes, and debates, in an attempt to involvs students W?TvdeBx  
and raise their interest in the course. z\7 -v<ZS  
41. The purpose of this passage is to___ qzk!'J3*r<  
A. inform       B. persuade       C. debate     D. narrate e92,@  
42. Guthrie identified three methods for__ /0m0" "  
A. educating students         B. altering bad habits 3le$0f:O  
C. avoiding undesired action       D. forming good hobbies DMdVE P"m  
43. Which of the following is not the example of applying the threshold RoFoEp  
method? nixIKOnjC  
A. Parents introduce spinach in small bites or mixed with a food than the n:"0mWnL$y  
    child enjoys over time so that the child will not refuse to eat it. lJvfgP-j  
B. Teachers introduce academic content in short blocks of time for young g|Tkl  
    children and gradually increase session length but not to where students \ gO!6  
    become frustrated or bored. XOL_vS24  
C. Paper with wider lines is first used and then paper with narrow lines is {zIcEN$ ~  
    introduced step by step to help children learn printing and handwriting. s|vx2-Cu]  
D. A child might be made to throw toys until it is no longer fan by his sa?s[  
    parents in order to change his behavior of repeatedly throwing toys. 0e +Qn&$#4  
44. To stop snacking while watching television, people should keep their hands U<|*V5   
  busy by sewing, painting, working crossword puzzles, and so forth. Over X=@bzL;eq  
  time. watching TV becomes a cue for engaging in an activity other than %bp'`B=  
  snac 'king. What method is used in this example? C1==a FD  
A. The threshold method.             B. The fatigue method.  G){A&F  
C. The incompatible response method.     D. The punishment method. )i"52!  
45. We can draw the conclusion from the passage that #Xk/<It  
A. The incompatible response method is to force child to make unwanted *X!+wK-+   
    response repeatedly in presence of stimulus until he or she becomes .U#oN_D  
    exhausted 1RauI0d*  
B. The threshold method refers to introducing undesired behavior with a ^|%N _ s  
    response incompatible with the undesired response so they can not be W0S\g#  
    performed simultaneously zmg :Z p=  
C. The fatigue method means that engaging in the behavior is transformde ;EsfHCi)  
    into avoiding it by introducing the stimulus at full strength so it becomes t(99m=9>  
    a cue for not performing it q}]z8 L  
D. The fatigue method is that in presence of stimulus teachers have child xB_7 8X1  
    make response incompatible with unwanted response xUPg~c0  
Passage 2 &x3R+(H {  
  The increase in global trade means that international companies cannot  [33=+C a  
afford to make costly advertising mistakes if they want to be competitive. &<Fw  
  Understanding the language and culture of target markets in foreign :n OCs  
countries is one of the keys to successful international marketing. Too many f9HoQDFsM  
companies, however, have jumped into foreign markets with embarrassing 8"ulAx74>  
wralts . =.IAd< C  
  Translation mistakes are at the heart of many blunders in international ${tBu#$-d  
advertising. U Ads$ 9  
  General Motors, the US auto manufacturer, got a costly lesson when it '/fueku  
introduced its Chevrole Nova to the Puerto Rican market. "Nova" is Latin for Q SvgbjdE  
new (star)" and means "star" in many languages, but in spoken Spanish it can #U6~U6@  
sound like "no va", meaning "it doesn't go". Few people wanted to buy a car H284 ]i  
with that cursed meaning. When GM changed the name to Caribe, sales Aj+0R?9tG  
picked up" dramatically. 8ZNwo  
  Marketing blunders have also been made by food and beverage companies. V7?Pv Q  
3ne American food company's friendly "Jolly Green Giant" (for advertising .c@,$z2M  
,egetables) became something quite different when it was translated into npcL<$<6X  
Arabic as "Intimidating Green Ogre". 2*Mu"v,  
  When translated into German Pepsi's popular slogan, "Come Alive with 51puR8AG>  
Pepsi" came out implying "Come Alive from the Grave". No wonder customers `%.x0~ ih  
in Germany didn't rush out to buy Pepsi. 9]|G-cyt  
  Successful international marketing doesn't stop with good E>rWm_G  
ranslafions--,-other aspects of culture must be researched and understood ff ig?Tj4kD  
aarketers are to avoid blunders. !qJ|`o Y  
  When marketers do not understand and appreciate the values, tastes, L)_L#]Yy  
geography, climate, superstitions, religion, or economy of a culture, they fail to ] dHV^!  
capture their target market. #zKF/H|_R  
  For example, an American designer tried to introduce a new pentare ihto fYgX|#Me  
  the Latin American market but the product aroused little interest. The mail u/4|Akui  
  reason was that the camellia used in it was traditionally used for funerals in |79n 1;+\?  
  many South American countries. z*&r@P -  
    Having awakened to the special nature of foreign advertising, companies !J+< M~o}  
are becoming much more conscientious in their translations and more sensitive ,7izrf8  
to cultural distinctions. 6Er%td)f  
                                      \B D'"  
  The best way to prevent errors is to hire professional translators who _z \PVTT  
understand the target language and its idiomatic usage, or to use a technique wQ/FJoB  
called "back translation" to reduce the possibility of blunders. }_o!f V  
    The process uses one person to translate a message into the target V7i1BR8G  
language and another to translate it back. Effective translators aim to capture a |+q:g0M  
the, overall message of an advertisement because a word-for-word duplication C6( WnO{6  
of the original rarely conveys the intended meaning and often causes ;COZHj9b  
misunderstandings. cak b.Q  
  In designing advertisements for other countries, messages need to be shot Yet!qmZ  
and simple. aqAWaO  
  They should also avoid jokes, since what is considered funny in one part JOJ? .H&su  
of the world may not be so humorous in another. _<1uO=km6

Passage 3 xrK%3nA4s"  
  It is not unusual for chief executives to collect millions of dollars a year in "mnWqRpX  
pay, stock options, and bonuses. In the last fifteen years, while executive p*rBT,'  
remuneration rose, taxes in the highest income bracket went down. Millionaires 05\A7.iy  
are now commonplace. dF*@G/p>V  
  Amiability is not a prerequisite for rising to the top, and there are a SUXRWFl  
number of chief executive officers with legendary bad tempers. It is not the zR/d:P?  
boss's job to worry about the well-being of his subordinates although the man ^c}Z$V  
with many enemies wi!! be swept out more quickly in hard times; it is the I|JMkP  
company he worries about . His business savvy is supposed to be based on b w!;ZRK  
intimate knowledge of .his company and the industry .so he goes home nightly E)m{m$Hb  
with a full briefcase. At the very top - and on the way up - executives are " jzU`  
exceedingly dedicated. }.Ht=E]  
  The American executive must be capable of enough small talk to get him q4<3 O"c1  
through the social part of his schedule, but he is probably not a highly cultured *D1 ^Se  
individual or an intellectual. Although his wife may be on the board of the Mxn >WCPo  
symphony or opera, he himself has little time for such pursuits. His reading @ 9D, f  
may largely concern business and management, despite interests in other fields. +~\1Zgw  
Golf provides him with a sportive outlet that combines with some useful V& <vRIsN  
socializing. zME75;{  
  These days, he probably attempts some form of aerobic exercise to "keep V*rAZ0  
the old heart in shape" and for the same reason goes easy on butter and alcohol, Oemi}  
and substances thought to contribute to taking highly stressed executives out of eKNZ?!c=  
the running. But his doctor's admonition to "take it easy" falls on deaf eyes. He NS @j`6/U  
likes to work. He knows there are younger men nipping at his heels. wl #Bv,xf  
  Corporate head-hunting, carried on by "executive search fares," is a 2`I" QU  
growing industry. America has great faith in individual talent, and dynamic and | ?3\xw  
aggressive executives are so in demand that companies regularly raid each S\K;h/;V  
other's managerial ranks. v{ Md4 p  
51. We can infer from the second paragraph that___ B)g 7MG  
    A. promotion depends on amiability DZ -5A  
    B. chief executives do not work hard enough at the top level _Q,`Qn@|BD  
    C. it is the duty of the chief executive to look after the well-being of his ;rYL\`6L  
      subordinates F|3Te?_  
    D. a chief executive is expected to know more about his company and the )isz }?Dj  
    industry -/rP0h5#  
52. The term "aerobic exercise" (fa'st line in second last paragraph) is a kind Of @S\!wjl]C  
    ____ ,%7>%*nhk  
    A. hallucination exercise fTd=}zY

    A. there are too many aggressive executives ){^o"A?-:  
    B. individual talent is not essential for a company )(yD"]co  
    C. the job of an "executive search rum" is corporate head-hunting @-=0T!/

kill himself in strict accordance with the tradifonal samurai ritual of seppuku. z:Y Z]

SHEET. r@}8TE*|P  
One might ask why speculation is permitted when there is so real a danger of Z6-ZAS(>m  
loss. The basic reason is that speculation can perform useful functions in the da i+"  
economy. Buying a commodity or stock in the belief that prices will rise speeds @j"6f|d  
market equilibrium and encourages faster entry of more suppliers. If the price ?\)h2oi!F5  
change lagged until after an actual commodity shortage had occurred, the Uy.ihh$ I-  
fluctuation would probably be sharper and more sudden. Remedial supply wFMw&=j  
action could not be further delayed. Similarly, if speculators foresee a surplus in V/:2xT  
some commodity, their selling of futures will help drive the price down to some 1w,34*-}  
extent before the SurpluS actually occurs. When speculators foresee a shortage .lq83; k  
and bid up the price, they are also helphng to conserve the present supply. As $4}G  
the price goes up,less of the commodity is purchased; a rise in price 4UUbX   
encourages users to ecor, om2ze. Similarly, a lowering of price encourages users ##} 7cFX  
to buy more, thus helping to sell the surplus which is developing. G')zDx
