As the pace of life continues to
increase, we are fast losing the art of
relaxation. But relaxation
is __1__ for
a healthy mind and body.
Stress is a
natural part of everyday life and there is no way
to __2__ it. In fact, it is not the bad
thing as it is often supposed to be. A
certain amount of stress is vital to provide
motivation and give
purpose to life. It
is only when the stress gets out of __3__ that it
can lead to poor performance and
ill
health.
The
amount
of
stress
a
person
can
withstand
depends
very
much
on
the
individual.
Some
people
are
not
afraid
of
stress,
and
such
__4__
are
obviously
prime
material
for
managerial
responsibilities.
Others lose heart at the first sight of __5__
difficulties. When exposed to stress, in
whatever
form,
we
react
both
physically
and
__6__.
In
fact
we
make
choice
between
or
fight
meet today are unlikely
to be so extreme, but however little the stress,
it involves the same __8__. It
is
when
such
a
reaction
lasts
long,
through
continued
__9__
to
stress,
that
health
becomes
endangered. Since we cannot __10__
stress from our lives it would be unwise to do so
even if we
could, we need to find ways
to deal with it.

E)avoid

The
typical
pre-industrial
family
not
only
had
a
good
many
children,
but
numerous
other
dependents as well---grandparents,
uncles, aunts and cousins. Such
for
survival in slow paced __1__ societies. But such
families are hard to __2__. They are immobile.
Industrialism demanded masses of
workers ready and able to move off the land in
pursuit of jobs,
and to move again
whenever necessary. Thus the extended family __3__
shed its excess weight and
the so-
called
and
a
small
set
of
children.
This
new
style
family,
far
more
__5__
than
the
traditional
extended
family, became the standard model in
all the industrial counties. Super-industrialism,
however, the
next
stage
of
eco-technological
development,
__6__
even
higher
mobility.
Thus
we
may
expect
many
among the people of the future to carry the stream
lining process, a step further by remaining
children, cutting the family down to
its more __7__ components, a man and a woman. Two
people,
perhaps with matched careers,
will prove more efficient at navigating through
education and social
status, through
job changes and geographic relocations, than the
ordinarily child-cluttered family. A
__8__ may be the postponement of
children, rather than childlessness. Men and women
today are
often torn in __9__ between a
commitment to career and a commitment to children.
In the future,
many __10__ will
sidestep this problem by deferring the entire task
of raising children until after
retirement.
A)transplant
B)solution
C)gradually
D)transport
E)elemental
F)conflict
G)continually
H)mobile
I)couples
J)agricultural
k)including
L)compromise
M)requires
N)primary
O)consisting

Videoconferencing is
nothing more than a television set or PC monitors
with a camera through
the
videoconferencing,
not
only
your
voice
but
also
your
face,
the
surroundings
and
any
other
graphic
and
physical
__1__
can
be
captured
and
transmitted
through
the
communication
system
with
or
without
wires.
Of
course,
when
you
go
into
the
details,
the
technology
involved
is
very
__2__
and
the
subject
matter
littered
with
jargon.
Such
as
ISDN
(Integrated
Services
Digital
Network),
POTS
(Plain
Old
Telephone
Service)
or
the
__3__
behind
bandwidth,
latency
and
isochrony(
等时性
)
which
are
used
to
explain
how
videoconferencing
works.
Good
people
communication is __4__ in any business,
and the more interaction you can achieve, the more
likely
it
is
that
your
__5__
will
be
the
right
ones.
Videoconferencing
not
only
allows
you
to
speak
to
people in different
locations, but also note __6__ expressions and
gestures that let you know what
the
other
person
is
really
thinking.
Meetings
are
made
more
__7__
by
sharing
documents
and
computer applications
that a simple telephone cannot __8__.__9__,
organizations are discovering
the
competitive
advantages
and
the
power
of
videoconferencing.
With
advances
in
performance,
economical
pricing,
the
ability
to
__10__
essential
meeting
tools
and
connectivity
to
global
telephone
networks
and
standardized
videoconferencing
protocols,
videoconferencing
is
now
a

reality for any organization.

Nowadays, is
it possible to tell a person’s class just by
looking at him? Physical details __1__
tell
us
about
health,
diet
and
type
of
work
done.
A
hundred
years
ago,
the
working
class
often
looked
unhealthy,
small
and
was
either
too
thin
or
too
fat.
The
upper
classes
were
often
__2__,
sporting
types
who
were
used
to
a
good
diet
and
looked
healthy.
Today
living
and
working
conditions have
improved, and such __3__ would no longer be so
true. The clothes people choose
to
wear, however, do provide information about their
__4__. The most obvious way in which is for
the amount of money spent on them.
Expensive clothes look expensive and show their
wearer had
money. Clothes can provide
other __5__ as well. The upper classes __6__ to be
less interested in
fashion
and
wear
good
quality
clothes
in
non-bright
colors,
made
of
natural
material
like
wool,
leather
or
cotton.
Lower
working
class
people
often
choose
clothes
in
bright
colors,
made
of
man-made
material. A sociological explanation for this
would be that color and interest are missing
from
their
lives,
and
therefore
any
opportunity
to
introduce
this
is
__7__.Clothes
are
__8__
at
a
price within most people’s reach. New
clothes make the wearer feel g
ood, and
show some __9__ of
wealth to the
outside world. Today some new fashions are started
by the lower working class people
who
want to look __10__ and feel important. They want
people to look at them.
A) available
B) background
C) different
D) tall
E) totally
F) taken
G) descriptions
H) degree
I) clues
J) alone
K) appear
L) consider
M) full
N) hobby
O)fetched

It’s never easy to admit you are in the
wrong. Being human, we all need to know the art of
apologizing. Look back wi
th
honesty and think how often you’ve judged roughly,
said __1__ things,
pushed
yourself
ahead
at
the
expense
of
a
friend.
Then
count
the
occasions
when
you
indicated
clearly and __2__ that you were sorry.
A bit frightening, isn’t i
t?
Frightening because some deep
wisdom in
us knows that when even a small wrong has been
committed, some mysterious moral
feeling is __3__, and it stays out of
balance until fault is acknowledged and __4__ is
expressed. I
remember
a
doctor
friend,
telling
me
about
a
man
who
came
to
him
with
a
variety
of
signs:
headaches, insomnia and stomach
trouble. No __5__ cause could be found. Finally my
friend said
to the man,
p
you.
man __6__ that, as executor of his
father’s
will, he had been
cheating his brother, who lived abroad,
of his __7__. Then and there the wise
old doctor made the man write to his brother
asking __8__
and enclosing a cheque as
the first step in restoring their good relation.
He then went with him to
mail box in
the corridor. As the letter disappeared, the man
burst into tears.
p
but also make it stronger. If you can
think of someone who deserves an apology from you,
someone
you have wronged, or just
neglected, do something about it right now.

D)regret
E)accurately
F)confessed
G)inheritance
H)physical
