5、ise money for the city by giving people fines for breaking some very stupid laws. Its all about money. ”The result is a lot of fines for minor offences.

9、ork for its clean streets? 禁果纽约过去是个不夜城。而现在纽约是个不吸烟，不喝酒或者说是不做任何没规矩的事情（至少不在公共场所）的城市。如果你想在中心公园野炊的时候喝杯酒，可以吗？门都没有。在公共场合是不允许喝酒的。如果你用吃剩下的三明治碎屑喂鸟，你很可能会被捕。那是违法的。如果你去酒吧喝杯酒抽根烟，这总可以吧，难道不是么？呃，不行，你不能在纽约市的公共场所吸烟。到底是怎么了？为什么过去如此开放的城市变成了这样？纽约市市长从幕后策划了这一切。他引进了许多法律，让纽约市市民无法做他们想做的事情，也无法随心所欲想干什么就干什么。新闻界震惊了。甚至是纽约市的警察也加入争吵。

16、ntonio Carluccio says, “True leaders are born and you can spot them in kitchens.” Theyre people who combine toughness, fairness and humour. Although a lot of people agree that there are some natural-born leaders, most people now recognize that leadership can also be taught. Our professional and expe

17、rienced staff can train almost anyone how to be a successful leader. Good leaders dont make people do things in a bossy, controlling way. You can learn how to involve everyone, encouraging the whole group to work towards a common goal.4Our training courses use activities and techniques to develop a

18、range of qualities which are necessary to be a good leader. Self-confidence is vital for you to overcome your own fears about being a leader.

19、 probably most importantly, good leaders need to be sensitive, sociable and be able to get on with a wide range of people. Good leadership is essentially the ability to influence others and good leaders allow all members of the group to contribute. 你是个成功的领导者吗？这个世界上几乎没有什么东西是单独一个人完成的。不管是在工作还是玩耍，你会发现都是

20、成群结队的，和其他人一起共事：工作中的团队，和同事开会，你的家人，和朋友度假，一组学生一起学习研究，去山上玩一天，一群需要换零钱的邻居。人们已经认识到能够和他人成功共事是取得成功的关键要素，部分原因是因为我们常常需要和他人共事。几乎每个团队都需要一个有技巧的领导。所有的团队都需要领导，并且每个成功的团队都有好的领导。没有领导的团队或者是领导力不强的团队几乎总是失败。没有领导的团队成员经常会觉得不满意或者是很泄气。时间都浪费掉了，任务也没完成。成员之间经常有争吵和矛盾，因为没人来明确目标。有些人员比较处于支配地位，其他成员就消失了。经常有些成员开始不参加会议，为了避免更多的不和谐。有些人天生是领

21、导者。明星厨师Antonio Carluccio说道，“真正的领导者是天生的，你在厨房一眼就能看出来。”好的领导者能将韧性、公平以及幽默感结合起来。尽管很多人认为有很多天生的领导者，大部分人现在意识到领导能力也能通过学习获得。我们专业的有经验的员工几乎能够将每个人训练成成功的领导。好的领导不会专横控制人们做事情。你可以学习如何让每个人都参与，鼓励整个团队朝着一个目标努力。我们的培训课程用一些活动以及技巧发展人们成为好的领导所需要的潜质。自信对克服你成为领导产生的恐惧很重要。成功的领导也需要你保持冷静和睿智。你需要能够在压力下想出好的对策并且做出合理判断。最后，可能也是最重要的，好的领导需要很敏

22、感，善于社交并且能够和各种不同的人群友好相处。好的领导力本质上就是影响他人的能力，好的领导允许团队所有成员做出贡献。3第4部分：阅读理解（第3145题，每题3分，共45分）下面有3篇短文，每篇短文后有5道题。请根据短文内容，为每题确定1个最佳选项。第一篇 The Smell of MoneyFor many years large supermarkets have been encouraging us to spend money by pumping the smell of freshly-baked bread into their stores. Now Dale Air, a l

23、eading firm of aroma（香气）consultants, has been approached by Barclays Bank to develop suitable artificial smells for their banks. Researchers have suggested that surrounding customers with the “smell of money” will encourage them to feel relaxed and optimistic and give them added confidence in the ba

24、nks security and professionalism.But before a smell can be manufactured and introduced into banks air conditioning systems, it must be identified and chemically analyzed, and this has proved to be difficult. The problem is that banknotes and coins tend to pick up the smell of their surroundings. So

25、cash that has been sitting in a cash register at a fishmongers（鱼贩）will smell of fish, and banknotes used to pay for meals in restaurants will tend to smell of food.It may be a challenge, but aroma experts have little doubt that the use of artificial smells can be an effective form of subconscious ad

26、vertising. Lunn Poly, a British travel company, introduced the smell of coconuts（椰子）into its travel agencies and saw a big increase in spending by holiday makers. Many cafes now have electric dispensers（自动售货机）that release the smell of freshly roasted coffee near their entrances, subtly encouraging c

27、ustomers to come in and have a drink or snack. Even prestigious car maker Rolls-Royce has been spraying the inside of its cars to enhance the smell of the leather seats. “The sense of smell is probably the most basic and primitive of all human senses,” explains researcher Jim ORiordan. “There is a d

28、irect pathway from the olfactory（嗅觉的）organs in the nose to the brain. ” It is certainly true that most people find certain smells incredibly strong, stirring memories and feelings in a way that few other stimulants can rival. It is a phenomenon marketing consultants have long recognized, but until r

29、ecently have been unable to harness. “Weve made great progress but the technology of odour production is still in its infancy,” says ORiordan. “Who knows where it will take us.” 钱的味道多少年来，大型超市通过在商店里放入新烤的面包来散发香味，从而鼓励消费者花钱。巴克莱银行已经找过Dale Air，一家在行业内领先的香气咨询公司，来为他们的银行设计一种合适的人造香味。研究人员建议，用“钱的味道”来环绕消费者会让他们觉得放

30、松和自信，让他们对银行的安全以及专业增加信心。但是在一种气味能加工并且用到银行的空气调节设备之前必须得先识别并且做化学分析，这很困难。问题是纸币和硬币容易沾上周围环境的气味。所以鱼贩收银机里面的现金会有鱼腥味，饭店里用来付饭钱的纸币也会有食物的味道。这可能是个挑战，但是香味专家几乎很肯定使用人工香气是一种有效的潜意识推广。Lunn Poly，英国的一家旅行公司，为他们的旅行社引进了椰子香味，结果度假者花钱增长很大。很多咖啡店现在有电动自动售货机，可以在入口处释放新焙炒的咖啡香气，巧妙的鼓励消费者进店喝杯咖啡或者吃点零食。甚至是久负盛名的汽车制造商劳斯莱斯喷涂汽车的内部，来改善皮革坐垫的味道。

31、“嗅觉大概是人类最基础最原始的感官”，研究员Jim ORiordan解释到。“鼻子里的嗅觉器官有一个直通大脑的通道。”绝大部分人会觉得有些味道非常强烈，这当然是正确的，有些味道能在某种程度上刺激记忆以及感觉，且很少有其他刺激物能与之相比。这种现象很多市场顾问很久之前都意识到了，但直到最近才能够利用。“我们已经取得了很大的进步，但是气味产品的生产技术仍处于初始阶段”，ORiordan说道。“谁知道我们会研究出什么”。31Artificial smells have NOT been used inAcafes.Bbanks.Ctravel agencies.Dsupermarkets.32Res
