UNIQLO's
founder tries to find a way to beat Zara and H&M
When
asked
what
guides
his
vision
of
UNIQLO,
Tadashi
Yanai,
its
founder
and
chief
executive,pulls off the shelf the 1987
autumn/winter collection catalogue of Next, a mass
-market
British retailer. All of the
clothes are so __ 31__ , he says, that they could
be worn today. While
Zara of Spain and
H&M of Sweden follow fashion trends without having
any original thought,

__32__ to timeless basics.
Mr.
Yanai
has
a/an__33__
base
at
home
from
which
to
develop
into
his
Western
competitors’
main markets of
Europe and America. But instead his __34__ remains

Thailand).
The
success or not of UNIPLO's overseas operations

Fast Retailing's shares --- Mr. Yanai

Reading Comprehension
Section A
Directions:
For
each
blank
in
the
following
passage
there
are
four
words
or
phrases
marked A, B, C and
in each blank with the word or phrase that best
fits the context.
If
you
are
a
perfectionist,
you
are
probably
familiar
with
the
feeling
of
wanting
to
get
everything just right. You may struggle
with handing in papers, agonize
(
苦苦思索
) over projects
at
work,
and
even
worry
about
small
errors
from
the
past.
High
__41__
are
one
thing,
but
perfectionism is quite as some
researchers have discovered, __ 42__ perfection
can
have serious consequences to mental
and physical well-being.
Since
perfectionism
is
__
43___
with
negative
outcomes,
what
can
someone
with
perfectionist tendencies do to change
their behavior? Although people are sometimes
__44__ to
give up their perfectionist
tendencies, psychologists point out that giving up
on perfection doesn't
mean
being
unsuccessful.
___45___
mistakes
are
an
important
part
of
learning
and
growing.
__46__ , imperfection can actually help
us in the long run.
One
possible
__47__
to
perfectionism
involves
developing
what
psychologists
call
a
growth
mindset
(
思维方式
).
Researchers
at
Stanford
University
have
found
that
cultivating
a
growth
mindset
is
a
key
way
to
help
us
learn
from
our
failures.
Unlike
those
with
___48___
mindsets
-- who see their skill levels as in
born and unchangeable, those with growth
mindsets
believe they can
improve their abilities by learning from their
mistakes. Psychologists point out
that
parents can play a __ 49__ role in helping their
children develop healthier attitudes towards
failure: they can praise their children
for making an effort even if their results are
imperfect and
help children learn to___
50___ when they make mistakes.
Another ___ 5l___ option
for perfectionism is to cultivate self-compassion
(
自我同情
) .
To
understand self-compassion, thank about how you
would ___52___ a close friend if they made
a
s
are
that
you
d
probably
make
responses
with
kindness
and
understanding,
knowing
that
your
friend
meant
well.
The
idea
behind
self-
compassion
is
that
we
should
treat
ourselves
___53___
when
we
make
mistakes,
remind
ourselves
that
mistakes
are
part
of
being
human,
and avoid being ___54___ by negative emotions.
Self-compassion can be beneficial for
mental
healt
h,
but
perfectionists
tend
not
to
treat
themselves
in
compassionate
ways.
If
you’re
interested in trying to foster more
self-compassion the researcher who developed the
concept of
self-compassion has a short
exercise you can try.
Psychologists have also suggested that
cognitive (
认知的
) behavioral
therapy can be a way
to help people
change their beliefs about perfectionism. Although
perfectionism is linked to lower
mental
health,the good news is that perfectionism is
something you can change. By working to see
mistakes as learning ___55___, and
replacing self-criticism with self-compassion,
it's possible to
overcome perfectionism
and develop a healthier way of setting goals for
yourself.

Section B
Directions:
Read the following three passages. Each
passage is followed by several questions or
unfinished statements. For each of them
there are four choices marked A, B, c and D.
Choose the
one that fits best according
to the information given in the passage you have
just read.
(A)
I had a teacher
who used to wake up in class by shouting: The
early bird gets the worm!
say let him
have the worm
ood that doesn’t stay
stil
l, and avoid 'Japanese restaurants
for
that
very
,
I
stopped
eating
worms
at
the
age
of
three,
switching
to
regular
breakfasts of cereal
(
谷物
) , to which I would add
extra sugar.
Recently I was thinking about early
birds and the competitive spirit after receiving a
letter
from a reader in Malaysia:
top of the shall I
do?
children in Asia tend to be the
focus by performing better
Placed into a very competitive class
when
I was 11, I quickly learned the
ideal position
was
second
to
last.
The
top
three
performers'
and
the
very
last
person
are
highlighted;
the
second-to-last
contestant
is
INVISIBLE.
And
it's
an
easy
position
to
get-
-just
deliberately
underperform at every test. I could do
that.I once came second to last in eight straight
sports day
races. No one suspected
anything. I was so invisible that I could have
robbed a bank in my street
and no one
would have noticed.
At the London Olympics a few months
ago, badminton pairs from three Asian countries
deliberately tried to lost matches to
draw good lots in later rounds. It was funny to
watch, but they
were all thrown out for
poor sportsmanship. What they really needed were
acting lessons, their
moves were so , I
hit the ball in entirely the wrong direction.
The other day,
I took the children out and they raced for the
car. I’m first.
e. The
second
said: First is worst, second is best. Together
they sang at the last one: And third's the one
with a hairy chest.
It
struck
me
that
the
organizers
of
sports
matches
could
use
this
song
when
people
deliberately lost matches. I lost, the
delighted loser will say. The judges could still
declare them
winners, pointing to anew,
optional regulation: First is worst, second is
best, third's the one with a
hairy
chest.
56. Why did the
author dislike Japanese restaurant?
A.
Its food was served raw.
B. Its food contained worms.
C. He was tempted by cereal.
D. He was
affected by the saying.
57. How did the
author manage to be invisible in a competitive
class?
A. He highlighted the top three
students.
B. He came to second in
sports races.
C. He hid himself in a
bank skill
D. He
intentionally underperformed.
58. What
can be learned from the passage?
A The
judge is encouraged to eliminate the dishonest
players.
B. Players disqualified from
Olympic doubles for using drugs.
C.
Children
