Passage 1 &ryiG  
    Guthrie's contiguity principle offers practical suggestions for how to break .6LS+[  
babies. ^[0" vtb  
    One application of the thrcshoM method involves the time young children y!F:m=x<  
spend on academic activities. Young children have short attention spans, so the T=.-Cl1A  
length of time they can sustain work on one activity is limited. Most activities m.!wsw  
are scheduled to last no longer than 30 to 40 minutes. However, at the start of j+nv=p  
the school year, attention spans quickly wane and behavior problems often FbmsN)mv!%  
result. To apply Gutiarie's theory, a teacher might, at the start of the year, limit !W(`<d]68:  
activities to 15 to 20 minutes. Over the next few weeks the teacher could D]jkR} t  
gredually increase the time students spend working on a single activity. 8'+7i8e  
    The threshold methoci also can be applied to teaching printing abd _O LI%o  
handwriting. When children first learn to form letters, their movements w\p9J0  
awkward and they lack free motor coordination. The distances between lines on RFB(d=o5S  
a page are purposely wide so children can fit the letters into the space. If paper .3(;9};  
with narrow lines is initially introduced, students' letters would spill over the ]uAS+shQ&  
borders and students might become frustrated. Once students can form letters gXF.on4B  
within the larger borders, they can use paper with smaller borders to help them .ByU  
refine their skills. $Vsy%gA<  
    The fatigue method can be applied when disciplining disruptive students IEc>.J|T&  
who build paper airplanes and sail them across the room. The teacher can *l:&f_ngV  
remove the students from the classroom, We them a large stack of paper, and 4Mi~1iZj  
tell them to start making paper airplanes. After the students have made several ]r!QmWw~V  
airplanes, the activity should lose its attraction and paper will become a cue for BO]=vH  
not building airplanes. ZOC#i i`:  
    Some students continually race around the gym when they first enter their w1c w1xX*  
physical education class. To employ the fatigue method, theteacher might 22|"K**3J|  
decide to have these students continue to run a few more laps after the class has  tq0;^L  
begun. e+l\\9v  
    The incompatible response method can be used with students who talk and :SK<2<8h  
misbehave in the media center. Reading is incompatible with talking. The IyOpju)?  
media center teacher might ask the students'to find interesting books and read LfHzT<)|  
them while in the center. Assuming that the studentS find the books enjoyable, `2,a(Sk#  
the media center will, over time, become a cue for selecting and reading books <&6u]uKrW  
rather than for talking with other students. IqNpLh| [  
  In a social studies class some students regularly fall asleep. The teacher l^ Rm0t_  
realized that using the board and overhead projector while lecturing was very ^ j [Ku  
boring. Soon the teacher began to incorporate other elements into each lesson, Hv8H.^D>  
such as experiments, videotapes, and debates, in an attempt to involvs students &>g~-s  
and raise their interest in the course. KxX[ S.C  
41. The purpose of this passage is to___ aiJ nfU]W  
A. inform       B. persuade       C. debate     D. narrate +2Z#M  
42. Guthrie identified three methods for__ Ch7Egz l7?  
A. educating students         B. altering bad habits UUH;L  
C. avoiding undesired action       D. forming good hobbies %<AS?Ry  
43. Which of the following is not the example of applying the threshold ^4 8\>-Q\  
method? <XvYa{t]{  
A. Parents introduce spinach in small bites or mixed with a food than the <ZVZ$ZW~D  
    child enjoys over time so that the child will not refuse to eat it. 3p&jLFphL  
B. Teachers introduce academic content in short blocks of time for young 06jMj26!  
    children and gradually increase session length but not to where students p/3BD&6  
    become frustrated or bored. =U c$D*  
C. Paper with wider lines is first used and then paper with narrow lines is f1J %]g!  
    introduced step by step to help children learn printing and handwriting. ;iQp7aW{$  
D. A child might be made to throw toys until it is no longer fan by his J.W Ho c  
    parents in order to change his behavior of repeatedly throwing toys. LXNQb6!  
44. To stop snacking while watching television, people should keep their hands 4'm q_o#4W  
  busy by sewing, painting, working crossword puzzles, and so forth. Over n/AW?'  
  time. watching TV becomes a cue for engaging in an activity other than [;Fofu Z  
  snac 'king. What method is used in this example? h R~v  
A. The threshold method.             B. The fatigue method. JhJLqb@q  
C. The incompatible response method.     D. The punishment method. `m, Ki69.  
45. We can draw the conclusion from the passage that `|?]CkP  
A. The incompatible response method is to force child to make unwanted (6clq:c7j  
    response repeatedly in presence of stimulus until he or she becomes Y"*:&E2)r  
    exhausted Pin/qp&Fa8  
B. The threshold method refers to introducing undesired behavior with a yd*3)6=  
    response incompatible with the undesired response so they can not be ?:/|d\,7@  
    performed simultaneously n_9x"m$  
C. The fatigue method means that engaging in the behavior is transformde Yf= FeH7"  
    into avoiding it by introducing the stimulus at full strength so it becomes 8gI\zgS  
    a cue for not performing it /WYh[XKe  
D. The fatigue method is that in presence of stimulus teachers have child az2X ch]  
    make response incompatible with unwanted response ,E9d\+j  
Passage 2 W+hV9  
  The increase in global trade means that international companies cannot o%qkqK1  
afford to make costly advertising mistakes if they want to be competitive. ^mfjn-=3  
  Understanding the language and culture of target markets in foreign " '[hr$h3  
countries is one of the keys to successful international marketing. Too many $:;%bjSI   
companies, however, have jumped into foreign markets with embarrassing rN#\AN  
wralts . TY6 rwU  
  Translation mistakes are at the heart of many blunders in international K(OaW)j  
advertising. 3I*uV!notJ  
  General Motors, the US auto manufacturer, got a costly lesson when it t 7^D-l  
introduced its Chevrole Nova to the Puerto Rican market. "Nova" is Latin for FW Y[=S  
new (star)" and means "star" in many languages, but in spoken Spanish it can km4g}~N</  
sound like "no va", meaning "it doesn't go". Few people wanted to buy a car enumK\  
with that cursed meaning. When GM changed the name to Caribe, sales y\z > /q  
picked up" dramatically.  5~s{N  
  Marketing blunders have also been made by food and beverage companies. 7Ud'd<  
3ne American food company's friendly "Jolly Green Giant" (for advertising u>o<tw%Y  
,egetables) became something quite different when it was translated into ^1VbH3M  
Arabic as "Intimidating Green Ogre". sOQcx\dK  
  When translated into German Pepsi's popular slogan, "Come Alive with o(Kcs-W2  
Pepsi" came out implying "Come Alive from the Grave". No wonder customers Abf1"#YImy  
in Germany didn't rush out to buy Pepsi. TPK@*9rI  
  Successful international marketing doesn't stop with good )eq}MaW+j  
ranslafions--,-other aspects of culture must be researched and understood ff i~8DSshA  
aarketers are to avoid blunders. -[$&s FD  
  When marketers do not understand and appreciate the values, tastes, WIG=D{\Yx  
geography, climate, superstitions, religion, or economy of a culture, they fail to =G>.-Qfs  
capture their target market. ?Pnx ~m{%*  
  For example, an American designer tried to introduce a new pentare ihto f3t. T=S  
  the Latin American market but the product aroused little interest. The mail (#z;(EN0t  
  reason was that the camellia used in it was traditionally used for funerals in Mj'lASI  
  many South American countries. 4#h ?Wga  
    Having awakened to the special nature of foreign advertising, companies SSQT;>  
are becoming much more conscientious in their translations and more sensitive @'gl~J7  
to cultural distinctions. j{ "[Ec  
                                      J#(,0h  
  The best way to prevent errors is to hire professional translators who 2&x7W*  
understand the target language and its idiomatic usage, or to use a technique N8 M'0i?  
called "back translation" to reduce the possibility of blunders. Cya5*U0=  
    The process uses one person to translate a message into the target \k4pK &b  
language and another to translate it back. Effective translators aim to capture kO+s+ 55  
the, overall message of an advertisement because a word-for-word duplication VF= Z`  
of the original rarely conveys the intended meaning and often causes ^K.*.|  
misunderstandings. ls]H6z*q  
  In designing advertisements for other countries, messages need to be shot T`Ro)ORC #  
and simple. ] R<FKJ[  
  They should also avoid jokes, since what is considered funny in one part 8nsZ+,@+[  
of the world may not be so humorous in another. h ~fWE

Passage 3 fQ1 0O(`g,  
  It is not unusual for chief executives to collect millions of dollars a year in "\<P$&`HA  
pay, stock options, and bonuses. In the last fifteen years, while executive I^@.Aw t  
remuneration rose, taxes in the highest income bracket went down. Millionaires Z>&K&ttJ  
are now commonplace. W}?s^  
  Amiability is not a prerequisite for rising to the top, and there are a 9j2\y=<&  
number of chief executive officers with legendary bad tempers. It is not the '(XW$D  
boss's job to worry about the well-being of his subordinates although the man d _uF Y:  
with many enemies wi!! be swept out more quickly in hard times; it is the 38"cbHE3  
company he worries about . His business savvy is supposed to be based on L*v93;|s  
intimate knowledge of .his company and the industry .so he goes home nightly =<TO"  
with a full briefcase. At the very top - and on the way up - executives are n-W?Z'H{r  
exceedingly dedicated. 4V1|jy3   
  The American executive must be capable of enough small talk to get him Ir^BC!<2>  
through the social part of his schedule, but he is probably not a highly cultured AsD1-$  
individual or an intellectual. Although his wife may be on the board of the zQn//7#-G  
symphony or opera, he himself has little time for such pursuits. His reading `P#8(GU  
may largely concern business and management, despite interests in other fields. y6bjJ}  
Golf provides him with a sportive outlet that combines with some useful ')rD?Z9 ^  
socializing. f7S^yA[[  
  These days, he probably attempts some form of aerobic exercise to "keep FRc  |D  
the old heart in shape" and for the same reason goes easy on butter and alcohol, > e;]mU`,  
and substances thought to contribute to taking highly stressed executives out of -}N Ab^d  
the running. But his doctor's admonition to "take it easy" falls on deaf eyes. He vrQFx~ZztH  
likes to work. He knows there are younger men nipping at his heels. EmF]W+!z%  
  Corporate head-hunting, carried on by "executive search fares," is a "i}Z(_7yr  
growing industry. America has great faith in individual talent, and dynamic and C CLfvex  
aggressive executives are so in demand that companies regularly raid each 7L1\1E:!  
other's managerial ranks. {7/A  
51. We can infer from the second paragraph that___ G[y&`Qc)G  
    A. promotion depends on amiability {jrZ?e-q  
    B. chief executives do not work hard enough at the top level "^18&>^  
    C. it is the duty of the chief executive to look after the well-being of his S$Qr@5  
      subordinates -,[~~  
    D. a chief executive is expected to know more about his company and the P*}9,VoY  
    industry nl.~^CP  
52. The term "aerobic exercise" (fa'st line in second last paragraph) is a kind Of :v|r=#OI  
    ____ yLV2>kq  
    A. hallucination exercise fma tc#G  
    B. physical exercise i0i.sizu

    A. there are too many aggressive executives }G"r3*  
    B. individual talent is not essential for a company K<Yn_G  
    C. the job of an "executive search rum" is corporate head-hunting \=HfO?$ Ro

  In November 1970 Yukio Mishima, together withsome of his fanatical ~Q.8 U3"  
followers from the ultranationalistic Shield Society WhiCh. he had four, dod in Vq)|gF[6i  
1966, broke into the headquarters of Japan's Eastern Defense Forces armed ZmYa.4'L  
with swords and daggers, overpowered some aides, tied up the commanding F3H:I"4  
general, and demanded that the troops be assembled to hear a speech. Mishima :N+K^gI)  
addressed the troops for ten minutes, inciting them to rebel against the !ch[I#&J-  
constitutional govemment imposed by the United States that had, in his words, #XYLVee,  
"turned Japan spineless." Receiving only ridicule in response, he returned to the : . FfE  
general's office and there, before the general's unbelieving eyes, proceeded to [Ls2k&)0  
kill himself in strict accordance with the tradifonal samurai ritual of seppuku. 2>_brz|7:|  
After Mishima had driven a dagger deep into his left abdomen, one of his aides qxg7cj2  
severed his head with a sword. The aide likewise 'killed himself and was ~#N.!e4  
5eheaded; the others surrendered. vV&AG1_Mv  
    In 1936 there had been a similar revolt and, though equally unsuccessful, 7E\K!v_  
it had foreshadowed the repressive re,me of General Tojo that was to stage tho #h #mOJ5  
attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. That earlier revolt is the one referred to in RT_Pd\(qD  
"Patriotism," one of Mishima's most powerful stories. Here life and fiction O>o}<t7  
become joined. The act of seppuku was for Mishima a fulfdlment, "the ultimate &EbD.>Ci  
dream of my life." Bom of an ancient samurai family, he longed to die a hero's h Vt+%tmNy  
death in accordance with the ancient samurai code; but his weak body kept him 99+/W*C  
from service in the war, and he had to compensate through body building (he 7zJh;f/  
became expert at karate and kendo) and, most important, through the discipline ;?HZ,"^I  
  writing. In his short lifetime he turned out twenty novels, thirty plays, many E=tx.h4xG~  
essays, and more than eighty stories: he also produced, directed, and acted in wr;|\<c  
movies, and even sang on stage. His first book of stories, A Forest in Flower, 2A18hP`^  
appeared in 1943, but it was Confession of a Mask (1948), dealing with the ^%'tD  
meditations of a young man of homosexual leanings in a repressive society, that '#An+;x{  
brought him fame. lJz?QI1

SHEET. 3&d +U)E  
One might ask why speculation is permitted when there is so real a danger of  KNyD}1  
loss. The basic reason is that speculation can perform useful functions in the |;1:$E"  
economy. Buying a commodity or stock in the belief that prices will rise speeds `2U/O .rV  
market equilibrium and encourages faster entry of more suppliers. If the price W p * v Vv  
change lagged until after an actual commodity shortage had occurred, the X OtS+p  
fluctuation would probably be sharper and more sudden. Remedial supply H.S|njn:r  
action could not be further delayed. Similarly, if speculators foresee a surplus in N P(?[W  
some commodity, their selling of futures will help drive the price down to some 2"K~:Tm#w  
extent before the SurpluS actually occurs. When speculators foresee a shortage IIEU{},}z  
and bid up the price, they are also helphng to conserve the present supply. As -Z& {$J  
the price goes up,less of the commodity is purchased; a rise in price cmLu T/oV  
encourages users to ecor, om2ze. Similarly, a lowering of price encourages users c oz}VMp  
to buy more, thus helping to sell the surplus which is developing. *)SgdC/f
