ANSWER SHEET. y]g5S-G  
Passage 1 G_}oI|B  
    Guthrie's contiguity principle offers practical suggestions for how to break Mehp]5*  
babies. p\}!uS4 (  
    One application of the thrcshoM method involves the time young children b?/Su<q  
spend on academic activities. Young children have short attention spans, so the Gh}* <X;N  
length of time they can sustain work on one activity is limited. Most activities zVis"g`  
are scheduled to last no longer than 30 to 40 minutes. However, at the start of ^97[(89G9  
the school year, attention spans quickly wane and behavior problems often p7L6~I N  
result. To apply Gutiarie's theory, a teacher might, at the start of the year, limit E)]emeG d  
activities to 15 to 20 minutes. Over the next few weeks the teacher could Hp@cBj_@P2  
gredually increase the time students spend working on a single activity. <9x|)2P  
    The threshold methoci also can be applied to teaching printing abd a YY1*^  
handwriting. When children first learn to form letters, their movements lUiO|  
awkward and they lack free motor coordination. The distances between lines on _zLEHEZ-  
a page are purposely wide so children can fit the letters into the space. If paper N@"e^i  
with narrow lines is initially introduced, students' letters would spill over the I]B9+Z?xo  
borders and students might become frustrated. Once students can form letters {"0n^!  
within the larger borders, they can use paper with smaller borders to help them _he~Y2zFz  
refine their skills. M#yUdl7d  
    The fatigue method can be applied when disciplining disruptive students hDbZ62DDN  
who build paper airplanes and sail them across the room. The teacher can [n +(  
remove the students from the classroom, We them a large stack of paper, and R=W$3Ue~,  
tell them to start making paper airplanes. After the students have made several G~Nh BA9  
airplanes, the activity should lose its attraction and paper will become a cue for &WdP=E"  
not building airplanes. QzYaxNGv  
    Some students continually race around the gym when they first enter their kEg~yN  
physical education class. To employ the fatigue method, theteacher might lb]k"L%KU7  
decide to have these students continue to run a few more laps after the class has B,Jn.YX  
begun. )Y?E$=M +B  
    The incompatible response method can be used with students who talk and =OR&,xt  
misbehave in the media center. Reading is incompatible with talking. The !Tu.A@  
media center teacher might ask the students'to find interesting books and read !p)cP"fa  
them while in the center. Assuming that the studentS find the books enjoyable, ,aa %{  
the media center will, over time, become a cue for selecting and reading books h#8 {fr)6  
rather than for talking with other students. 7p18;Z+6>X  
  In a social studies class some students regularly fall asleep. The teacher Q1 vse  
realized that using the board and overhead projector while lecturing was very +Jc-9Ko\c;  
boring. Soon the teacher began to incorporate other elements into each lesson, =k+i5:@]  
such as experiments, videotapes, and debates, in an attempt to involvs students _j<,qi  
and raise their interest in the course. @HXXhYH  
41. The purpose of this passage is to___ Zn'y"@%t[  
A. inform       B. persuade       C. debate     D. narrate i4 tW8 Il  
42. Guthrie identified three methods for__ &S# bLE  
A. educating students         B. altering bad habits J~G"D-l<9/  
C. avoiding undesired action       D. forming good hobbies wT\dzp>/  
43. Which of the following is not the example of applying the threshold B?_ujH80m  
method? 1'* {Vm M  
A. Parents introduce spinach in small bites or mixed with a food than the ;:gx;'dm5  
    child enjoys over time so that the child will not refuse to eat it. ^F1zkIE  
B. Teachers introduce academic content in short blocks of time for young z 9KsSlS ^  
    children and gradually increase session length but not to where students gClD VO  
    become frustrated or bored. HjN )~<j  
C. Paper with wider lines is first used and then paper with narrow lines is KBGJB`D*  
    introduced step by step to help children learn printing and handwriting. k)USLA  
D. A child might be made to throw toys until it is no longer fan by his h-h}NCP  
    parents in order to change his behavior of repeatedly throwing toys. E0S[TEDa]  
44. To stop snacking while watching television, people should keep their hands R:JS)>B  
  busy by sewing, painting, working crossword puzzles, and so forth. Over AuYi$?8|5  
  time. watching TV becomes a cue for engaging in an activity other than ByZ. !~  
  snac 'king. What method is used in this example? P6 G/J-  
A. The threshold method.             B. The fatigue method. 9P)<CD0  
C. The incompatible response method.     D. The punishment method. !ZV#~t:)  
45. We can draw the conclusion from the passage that aa1XY&G"!  
A. The incompatible response method is to force child to make unwanted 0?t!tugG  
    response repeatedly in presence of stimulus until he or she becomes "$8<\k$LGT  
    exhausted vR~*r6hX8  
B. The threshold method refers to introducing undesired behavior with a w } 2|Do$5  
    response incompatible with the undesired response so they can not be (A &@ <  
    performed simultaneously E(U}$Zey  
C. The fatigue method means that engaging in the behavior is transformde {nOK*7+ "  
    into avoiding it by introducing the stimulus at full strength so it becomes )x|BY>  
    a cue for not performing it |I+E`,n"b  
D. The fatigue method is that in presence of stimulus teachers have child gkk< -j'  
    make response incompatible with unwanted response W\<#`0tUt  
Passage 2 d8RpL{9\7  
  The increase in global trade means that international companies cannot 8rp-Xi W  
afford to make costly advertising mistakes if they want to be competitive. }\ DQxHG  
  Understanding the language and culture of target markets in foreign sqZHk+<%  
countries is one of the keys to successful international marketing. Too many Em"X5>;4  
companies, however, have jumped into foreign markets with embarrassing T*T.\b   
wralts . >;3c; nf  
  Translation mistakes are at the heart of many blunders in international o"1us75P  
advertising. -X}R(.}x  
  General Motors, the US auto manufacturer, got a costly lesson when it B=c^ma  
introduced its Chevrole Nova to the Puerto Rican market. "Nova" is Latin for M7> \Qk  
new (star)" and means "star" in many languages, but in spoken Spanish it can 1aT$07G0  
sound like "no va", meaning "it doesn't go". Few people wanted to buy a car d<3"$%C  
with that cursed meaning. When GM changed the name to Caribe, sales ^ KjqS\<  
picked up" dramatically. anwn!Eqk"  
  Marketing blunders have also been made by food and beverage companies. X0$_KPn  
3ne American food company's friendly "Jolly Green Giant" (for advertising t2SZ]|C  
,egetables) became something quite different when it was translated into ,`7GI*Vq  
Arabic as "Intimidating Green Ogre". -)I_+N  
  When translated into German Pepsi's popular slogan, "Come Alive with zXCIn  
Pepsi" came out implying "Come Alive from the Grave". No wonder customers 5~X%*_[],  
in Germany didn't rush out to buy Pepsi. M:SxAo-D2  
  Successful international marketing doesn't stop with good r/T DU[`&  
ranslafions--,-other aspects of culture must be researched and understood ff _# F'rl6'  
aarketers are to avoid blunders. <FK><aA_i*  
  When marketers do not understand and appreciate the values, tastes,  e.GzGX  
geography, climate, superstitions, religion, or economy of a culture, they fail to )AoFd>  
capture their target market. 2yZ6:U~  
  For example, an American designer tried to introduce a new pentare ihto X m3t xp#  
  the Latin American market but the product aroused little interest. The mail Z%R%D*f@y  
  reason was that the camellia used in it was traditionally used for funerals in YC_^jRB8n  
  many South American countries. HKkf+)%)x  
    Having awakened to the special nature of foreign advertising, companies V"ZbKV +[  
are becoming much more conscientious in their translations and more sensitive $OD5t5eTsM  
to cultural distinctions. K0g:Q*J-  
                                      ~-GDheA  
  The best way to prevent errors is to hire professional translators who rh&onp O  
understand the target language and its idiomatic usage, or to use a technique NHF?73:  
called "back translation" to reduce the possibility of blunders. `[\phv  
    The process uses one person to translate a message into the target dmy-}.pqN  
language and another to translate it back. Effective translators aim to capture ;" *`  
the, overall message of an advertisement because a word-for-word duplication G~L?q~b  
of the original rarely conveys the intended meaning and often causes 3>" h*U#  
misunderstandings. DV\ei")  
  In designing advertisements for other countries, messages need to be shot 03o3[g?  
and simple. Y(zN  
  They should also avoid jokes, since what is considered funny in one part rk|(BA  
of the world may not be so humorous in another. |mmG s

Passage 3 04PoBv~g  
  It is not unusual for chief executives to collect millions of dollars a year in Mq :'-`  
pay, stock options, and bonuses. In the last fifteen years, while executive H< Kkj  
remuneration rose, taxes in the highest income bracket went down. Millionaires iSr`fQw#  
are now commonplace. Y3$PQwn .P  
  Amiability is not a prerequisite for rising to the top, and there are a sh(kRrdY3  
number of chief executive officers with legendary bad tempers. It is not the n!ZP?]FR  
boss's job to worry about the well-being of his subordinates although the man 0L0Jc,(F+  
with many enemies wi!! be swept out more quickly in hard times; it is the H KiVEg  
company he worries about . His business savvy is supposed to be based on mvTyx7 h=  
intimate knowledge of .his company and the industry .so he goes home nightly G?1x+H;o5  
with a full briefcase. At the very top - and on the way up - executives are e-iYJ?  
exceedingly dedicated. #K#Mv /  
  The American executive must be capable of enough small talk to get him +t>*l>[  
through the social part of his schedule, but he is probably not a highly cultured WHgV_o 8  
individual or an intellectual. Although his wife may be on the board of the O+o;aa6  
symphony or opera, he himself has little time for such pursuits. His reading eyf4M;goz}  
may largely concern business and management, despite interests in other fields. ByhOK}u;P4  
Golf provides him with a sportive outlet that combines with some useful pymx\Hd,  
socializing. 7}d$*C  
  These days, he probably attempts some form of aerobic exercise to "keep oE!hF}O  
the old heart in shape" and for the same reason goes easy on butter and alcohol, x[PEn  
and substances thought to contribute to taking highly stressed executives out of ,TF<y#wed  
the running. But his doctor's admonition to "take it easy" falls on deaf eyes. He VR4E 2^  
likes to work. He knows there are younger men nipping at his heels. 6; 5)/q  
  Corporate head-hunting, carried on by "executive search fares," is a &@4.;u  
growing industry. America has great faith in individual talent, and dynamic and U~{Sa+  
aggressive executives are so in demand that companies regularly raid each YER:ICQ  
other's managerial ranks. yX7CN5vVl  
51. We can infer from the second paragraph that___ ;48P vw>g}  
    A. promotion depends on amiability N 8:"&WM  
    B. chief executives do not work hard enough at the top level VLh%XoQx[  
    C. it is the duty of the chief executive to look after the well-being of his ;Ze"<U  
      subordinates ,VKQRmd  
    D. a chief executive is expected to know more about his company and the Z!wD~C"D73  
    industry #0P!xZ'|{  
52. The term "aerobic exercise" (fa'st line in second last paragraph) is a kind Of N@cMM1  
    ____ 6Cl+KcJH  
    A. hallucination exercise !~K=#"T  
    B. physical exercise @Pxw hlxa  
    C. meditation exercise kF+ZW%6N

    A. there are too many aggressive executives B;eW/#`  
    B. individual talent is not essential for a company RRx`}E9,  
    C. the job of an "executive search rum" is corporate head-hunting >65 TkAp

  In November 1970 Yukio Mishima, together withsome of his fanatical y0;,dv]  
followers from the ultranationalistic Shield Society WhiCh. he had four, dod in =Wj{]&`  
1966, broke into the headquarters of Japan's Eastern Defense Forces armed #De(*&y2  
with swords and daggers, overpowered some aides, tied up the commanding m6-76ma,hi  
general, and demanded that the troops be assembled to hear a speech. Mishima P!5Z]+B#  
addressed the troops for ten minutes, inciting them to rebel against the /n(9&'H<  
constitutional govemment imposed by the United States that had, in his words, 7O:"~L  
"turned Japan spineless." Receiving only ridicule in response, he returned to the VW{,:Ya  
general's office and there, before the general's unbelieving eyes, proceeded to NP "ylMr7P  
kill himself in strict accordance with the tradifonal samurai ritual of seppuku. R^w}o,/  
After Mishima had driven a dagger deep into his left abdomen, one of his aides GN0duV  
severed his head with a sword. The aide likewise 'killed himself and was Hv3W{|  
5eheaded; the others surrendered. )R~a;?T_c0  
    In 1936 there had been a similar revolt and, though equally unsuccessful, WI6(#8^p  
it had foreshadowed the repressive re,me of General Tojo that was to stage tho pOKeEW<q  
attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. That earlier revolt is the one referred to in X\kjAMuW/*  
"Patriotism," one of Mishima's most powerful stories. Here life and fiction t |.Ft<c#  
become joined. The act of seppuku was for Mishima a fulfdlment, "the ultimate ZlrhC= 0  
dream of my life." Bom of an ancient samurai family, he longed to die a hero's qT$ )Rb&  
death in accordance with the ancient samurai code; but his weak body kept him X3AwM%,!  
from service in the war, and he had to compensate through body building (he E.9^&E}PG  
became expert at karate and kendo) and, most important, through the discipline Y3<b~!f  
  writing. In his short lifetime he turned out twenty novels, thirty plays, many ly[lrD0Kn.  
essays, and more than eighty stories: he also produced, directed, and acted in kB V/rw  
movies, and even sang on stage. His first book of stories, A Forest in Flower, SAy{YOLtl  
appeared in 1943, but it was Confession of a Mask (1948), dealing with the e]+7DE  
meditations of a young man of homosexual leanings in a repressive society, that ?&6Q%IUW1  
brought him fame. 7u|%^Ao6

One might ask why speculation is permitted when there is so real a danger of Yt*vqm[WV  
loss. The basic reason is that speculation can perform useful functions in the N%u  
economy. Buying a commodity or stock in the belief that prices will rise speeds . pP7"E4]  
market equilibrium and encourages faster entry of more suppliers. If the price L;lk.~V4T  
change lagged until after an actual commodity shortage had occurred, the _r5wF(Y?7  
fluctuation would probably be sharper and more sudden. Remedial supply .1{l[[= W  
action could not be further delayed. Similarly, if speculators foresee a surplus in )qd= {  
some commodity, their selling of futures will help drive the price down to some EBwK 7c  
extent before the SurpluS actually occurs. When speculators foresee a shortage '$6PTa  
and bid up the price, they are also helphng to conserve the present supply. As ]5)"gL%H`  
the price goes up,less of the commodity is purchased; a rise in price cmIT$?J  
encourages users to ecor, om2ze. Similarly, a lowering of price encourages users }^9pa U  
to buy more, thus helping to sell the surplus which is developing. HzEGq,.
