For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C), and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Shee

15、t with a single line through the center.Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage: Students graduating from colleges today are not fully prepared to deal with the “real world.” It is my belief that college students need to be taught more skills and information to enable them to meet the

16、challenges that face everyone in daily life. The areas in which students need training are playing the credit game, planning their personal financial strategy, and consumer awareness. Learning how to obtain and use credit is probably the most valuable knowledge a young person can have. Credit is a d

17、angerous tool that can be of tremendous help if it is handled with caution. Having credit can enable people to obtain material necessities before they have the money to purchase them outright. But unfortunately, many, many young people get carried away with their handy plastic credit cards and awake

18、 one day to find they are in serious financial debt. Learning how to use credit properly can be a very difficult and painful lesson indeed. Of equal importance is learning how to plan a person budget. People have to know how to control money; otherwise, it can control them. Students should leave col

19、lege knowing how to allocate their money for living expenses, insurance, savings, and so forth in order to avoid the “Oh, no! Im flat broke and I dont get paid again for two weeks! anxiety syndrome. Along with learning about credit and personal financial planning, graduating college students should

20、be trained as consumers. The consumer market today is flooded with a variety of products and services of varying quality and prices. A young person entering the “real world” is suddenly faced with difficult decisions about which product to buy or whose services to engage. He is usually unaware of su

21、ch things as return policies, guarantees, or repair procedures. Information of this sort is vital knowledge to everyday living. For a newly graduated college student, the “real world” can be a scary place to be when he or she faced with such issues as handling credit, planning a budget, or knowing w

22、hat to look for when making a purchase and whom to purchase it from. Entering the “real world” could be made less painful if people were educated in dealing with these areas of daily life. What better place to accomplish this than in college21. According to the writer, graduating students _. A) will

23、 find it hard to get a job with only knowledge gained form college B) have insufficient skills and knowledge and do not deserve a college diploma C) will not be able to earn enough money to support themselves D) do not have the necessary knowledge and skill to deal with the realities of life22. The

24、writer points out that many young people _. A) fall into debt due to ill-advised use of credit cards B) have to depend on credit to purchase some material necessities C) do not know the power of credit and easily run into serious financial debt D) start buying too much on credit before they get a pa

25、id job23. Students suffer from an anxiety syndrome because _. A) they do not have their parents financial support B) they are worried that they dont get paid on time C) they run out of money and cant cover their living expenses D) they cant afford to buy insurance for themselves24. To “train student

26、s as consumers” means to enable them to _. A) handle their credit with caution B) plan their spending carefully so that they dont go broke C) make wise purchasing decisions and be informed about consumer services D) cope with serious financial problems25. By asking “What better place to accomplish t

27、his than in college” the writer means that _. A) the best place to train students to deal with personal financial issues is in college B) students should be trained to enter the real world after they graduate from college C) students can best be trained in business and economics in college D) studen

28、ts should be taught to cope with the difficult problems they will be facing after graduationQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage: Numerous gestures, facial expression, and motions also send different signals in different cultures. For example, Americans are often direct in their con

29、versations, expecting the truth with no hint of deception. People in some other countries, though, may prefer not to be direct. To them, this is s sign of respect. In America, a person who is reluctant to maintain eye contact is called shifty-eyed and arouses suspicion. But in come countries an atte

30、mpt to maintain eye contact may be perceived as a sign of aggression. Accordingly, in Japan, South Korea, and other Asian countries, maintaining eye contact is not an acceptable behavior. The evaluation of how to spend time also differs culturally. Western cultures view time as a resource that is no

31、t to be wasted. The efficient use of time is emphasized in such expression as “Time is money” and “Time is the enemy”. People thus live by schedules and deadlines and thrive on being prompt for meetings and “efficient in conducting business. In contrast, Eastern cultures view time as unlimited and u

32、nending. In such places, people arrive late for appointments, business is preceded by hours of social rapport and those who are in a rush are occasionally thought to be arrogant and untrustworthy. Lets say that a salesperson form Chicago calls on a client in Mexico City. After spending 30 minutes in the outer office
