Mini-talk

Hi, my name is William Jackins. I’m a life and relationship coach and the owner of New York Dating Coach in New York City.

Now we’ll talk about making a good first impression. You only get one chance to do that, right? A really great way to make a good first impression is to make eye contact and to show real interest in the person you’re meeting. It’s important to remember their names. When you first meet somebody, you should use their names during the conversation to let them know that you remember their names.

You should also allow them to have the spotlight. You can share information about yourself, but don’t control the conversation; it’s not all about you. Even if you’re the most interesting person in the world, people want to talk about themselves too. So be a great listener, ask questions and really make a point of getting to know the other person. And you know, people like to talk about themselves. So if you let them do that, then they’re going to like you.

Finally, make sure you dress nicely and have good posture. Don’t be negative and don’t complain; no one wants to hear your problems. Just be positive, be yourself and be a good listener.

A

While you may be doing everything right, ignoring just one or two steps in the process may keep you from getting a job, especially in this fierce market. Here is a checklist that covers some of the major links in the job-search chain.

THE RESUME --- Make sure it is up-to-date and tailored to the types of jobs you are seeking for. Have someone else look at your resume. If you cannot afford a career coach, give your resume to friends or family members to scrutinize. Have copies of your resume printed so that you are ready to hand them out at interviews.

COVERING LETTERS --- Maybe you’ve set up a few basic styles in advance, but that’s not enough. Each covering letter should be designed to suit the job for which you are applying.

THE WARDROBE(衣橱) --- Check your wardrobe to ensure that you have the appropriate professional dress, including shoes, ready for interview.

NETWORKING --- Don’t isolate yourself from others for days. Network through e-mail messages, phone calls, appointments and meetings keep you in touch with the outside world and prevent you from becoming depressed.

APPLICATION --- A glance at huge online job sites isn’t usually the best way to find a job. You are more likely to succeed through the people you know via networking.

THE FOLLOW—UP --- It is quite common to apply for job and never hear back from the company. Take measures, such as following up with a phone call a week or so after you apply. If you know someone at the company, check whether that person will put in a good word for you.

INTERVIEWS --- If you’ve got plenty of interviews but no return calls or job offers, take a look at your interviewing skills. This is one area where investing in a career coach may pay off. But if you can’t afford one, try to find a job group or service that conducts free mock(模拟) interviews.

SUPPORT SYSTEMS --- Finally, recognize that looking for job is rather difficult. Even at the best of times, a job hunt is often about rejection, and that can be hard to endure. Staying in touch with family, friends, professional networks and fellow job seekers can help you to maintain a positive attitude and a sense of perspective.

56. The author’s purpose of writing this text is to _________.

A. suggest graduates should find suitable jobs B. tell people how to improve their interview skills

C. teach people how to get ready for an interview D. give people some tips on searching for jobs

57. The underlined word “scrutinize” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by ________.

B

I still remember --- my hands and my fingers still remember --- what used to lie in store for us on our return to school from the holidays. The trees in the school yard would be in full leaf again and the old leaves would be lying around like a muddy sea of leaves.

“Get that all swept up!” the headmaster would tell us. “I want the whole place cleaned up, at once!” There was enough work there, to last over a week. Especially since the only tools with which we were provided were our hands, our fingers, our nails. “Now see that it’s done properly, and be quick about it,” the headmaster would say to the older pupils, “or you’ll have to answer for it!”

So at an order from the older boys we would all line up like peanuts about to cut and gather in crops. If the work was not going as quickly as the headmaster expected, the big boys, instead of giving us a helping hand, used to find it simpler to beat us with branches pulled from the trees. In order to avoid these blows, we used to bribe(贿赂) the older boys with the juicy cakes we used to bring for our midday meal. And if we happened to have any money on us, the coins changed hands at once. If we did not do this, if we were afraid of going home with an empty stomach or an empty purse, the blows were redoubled. They hit us so violently and with such evil enjoyment that even a deaf and dumb person would have realized that we were being whipped not so much to make us work harder, but rather to beat us into a state of obedience(服从) in which we would be only too glad to give up our food and money.

Occasionally one of us, worn out by such calculated cruelty, would have the courage to complain to the headmaster. He would of course be very angry, but the punishment he gave the older boys was always very small --- nothing compared to what they had done to us. And the fact is that however much we complained, our situation did not improve in the slightest. Perhaps we should have let our parents know what was going on, but somehow we never dreamed of doing so; I don’t know whether it was loyalty or pride that kept us silent, but I can see now that we were foolish to keep quiet about it, for such beating were completely foreign to our nature.

61. The statement “my hands and my fingers still remember” (Para.1) means that___________.

A. the author’s hands were severely injured in the cleaning up

B. the author seldom did such hard work as the cleaning up

C. the author was bullied by the big boys in the cleaning up

D. the author’s hands were his only tool for the cleaning

62. The headmaster would tell the students to clean up the school yard at the beginning of the term because____________.

A. he was too lazy B. there were many fallen leaves on the ground

C. the school yard were covered with mud D. the students didn’t finish their homework

63. The headmaster asked the older boys to_____________.

A. beat those who worked slowly B. treat the small boys as peanuts

C. take charge of the process of the cleaning D. do the cleaning all by themselves

64. According to Para. 3, if the author had any money on him, he most probably_________.

A. gave it to the big boys so as to please them B. gave it as a bride to the headmaster

C. spent it all on his midday meal D. spent it buying midday meals for the big boys

65. When receiving complaints, the headmaster would deal with the big boys by means of _________.

A. slight punishment B. harsh criticism C. complete indifference D. good beating

解析

61. 答案是D。细节理解题。作者一开始用了两个remember表明他对暑假返校要清除落叶一事记忆深刻。第二段提到自己在为学校清除落叶时没有别的工具，唯一的工具就是手，由此可推断“手和指尖都记得”是因为在大扫除中，作者的手作为唯一的清洁工具受了不少的罪。

62. 答案是B。细节推理题。第一段最后一句通提到假期会后学校会堆满落叶，第二段校长发布学生大扫除的命令，两者之间的因果关系显而易见，因此本题应选B。

63. 答案是C。细节理解题。 第二段最后一句，特别是其中的see，表明校长让大孩子们做大扫除的“监工”，负责带领其他孩子们把学校打扫干净。这也可以从该段最后一句的“or you’ll answer for it!”(否则你们就要为此负责)可以看出答案。

64. 答案是A。细节推理题。 根据第三段第四句中的the coins changed hands at once可理解为“钱马上就会易主”，即到了大孩子们的口袋里。

65. 答案是A。细节理解题。 根据题干中的complaints可定位到最后一段开头两句。该段第二句表明校长对大孩子的惩罚很轻微，因此本题应选A。

C

A blind baby is doubly handicapped. Not only is it unable to see, but because it cannot receive the visual stimulus（刺激）from its environment that a sighted child does, it is likely to be slow in intellectual development. Now the ten-month old son of Dr. and Mrs. Dennis Daughters is the subject of an unusual psychological experiment designed to prevent a lag（滞后）in the learning process. With the aid of a sonar-type electronic that he wears on his head, infant(婴儿) Dennis is learning to identify the people and objects in the world around him by means of echoes(回声).

The device is an improvement of the “Sonicguide”, an instrument produced by Telesensory Systems, Inc., of Palo Alto, Calif, and used by blind adults in addition to a smart or guide dog. As adapted for Dennis, it consists of a battery-powered system about the size of a half dollar that is on a headgear. A transmitter sends out an ultrasonic(超声的) pulse that creates an 80 degree cone of sound at 6 feet. Echoes from objects within the cone are perceived (felt) as sounds that vary in pitch(音调) and volume(音量) with the size and distance of the object.

The closer an object is, the lower the pitch, and the larger the object, the louder the signal. Hard surfaces produce a sharp ping, while soft ones send back signals with a slightly fuzzy quality. An object slightly to the right of Denny’s sends back a louder sound to his right ear than to the left. Thus , by simply moving his head right and left and up and down, he can not only locate an object but also get some notion of its shape and size, thanks to the varying qualities of sounds reaching his ears as the cone of ultrasound(超声波) passes its edges. Dennis likes to use the device to play a kind of peek-a-boo with his mother. Standing on her knee and facing her directly, he receives a strong signal in both ears. By turning his head away, he makes her seem to disappear. “From the first time he wore it,” says Mrs. Daughters, “it was like a light going on in his head.”

What remains to be determined is how well the device will help Dennis cope with his surroundings as he begins to walk and venture further into his environment.

Meanwhile, Telesensory, Inc, is working on the development of sonar(声纳) device with somewhat the same sensitivity as Dennis’s for use by school-age children.

66. Dr. and Mrs. Daughters’ research is directed to ______________.

A. helping the blind to see and learn as well as others

B. benefiting the learning process of blind children

C. solving blind children’s psychological problems

D. finding out how children develop intellectually

67. Infant Dennis becomes the subject of the experiment most probably because _____________.

A. he already lags behind the sighted children B. he leads a life as normal as any other children

C. he is at the early stage of the learning process D. he has the aid of a sonar-type electronic device

68. What can we learn about infant Dennis’ device?

A. Its the first design was designed for blind adults. B. Its battery is as small as a half-dollar coin.

C. It is functionally similar to a sane and guide dog. D. It has been improved by Telesensory Systems, Inc.

69. In the third paragraph, “its edge” refers to ___________ .

A. the edge of an object B. the edge of the device

C. the boundary of Dennis’ movement D. the boundary of the sound pitch.

70. What is Telesensory Systems, Inc. most likely to think about infant Dennis’ device?

A. It had better be used by blind children from school age.

B. It needs improving for use in a complicated environment.

C. It may not be so suitable for the blind adults.

D. It benefits blind children in terms of learning.

解析

66. 答案B。细节理解题。首段第3句末的不定式to prevent a lag in the learning process 表明了Daughters夫妇研究的目的。另外，文章一开头就提到了本文讨论的重点是针对blind baby的，由此可见，选项B为本题答案。

67. 答案C。细节理解题。首段首句提到的a blind baby，第3句提到的ten-month old和末句提到的infant等词都表明Dennis成为研究对象是因为Daughters夫妇研究的是盲童从小的学习过程，Dennis年龄很小，正处于学习的最初阶段，符合Daughters夫妇做研究的条件，因此选项C为本题答案。

68. 答案A。细节理解题。第2段首句中的improvement表明Dennis用的声纳定位仪是Sonciguide的改良版，也就是说Sonciguide是Dennis的声纳定位仪的原型，根据该句对其功能的描述可以确定选项A为本题答案。

69. 答案A。细节理解题。第3段第4句中的thanks to 表明此处解释了Dennis的声纳定位仪的运作机制，即通过声波描绘物体的形状，该句中the cone指的就是该定位仪，而its edge应指周围物体的边缘，当声波碰到物体的边缘时，就能通过声音描绘出物体的形状了，因此本题答案应为A。

70. 答案D。细节推理题。从末段末句中的school-age children及句中的其他内容可以推断telesensory 最可能认为Dennis的声纳定位仪有利于儿童的学习过程，因此选项D为本题答案。

Part IV Writing (45 marks)

Section A (10 marks)

Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage

Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.

With all kinds of toothbrush and toothpaste ads everywhere, people have come to realize the importance of protecting teeth. "There is no decayed tooth(龋齿) for young children" has become the goal of all parents. Bad teeth may cause a lot of pain or even death. Infections of gums (牙龈) and teeth can release bacteria into the blood system. Those bacteria can increase the chances of a heart attack or stroke and worsen the effects of other disease.

Experts at the National Institutes of Health say good dental care starts at birth. They say breast milk is the best food for the healthy development of teeth. Breast milk can help slow bacterial growth and acid production in the mouth. But dentists say you should clean your baby's gums and early teeth after each feeding. Use a cloth with a little warm water.

When baby teeth begin to appear, you can clean them with a wet toothbrush. Dentists say it is important to find soft toothbrushes specially made for babies. And use them very gently. The use of fluoride (氟化物) to protect teeth is common in many parts of the world. This natural element is often added to drinking water supplies. The fluoride mixes with enamel (牙釉质), the hard surface on teeth, to help prevent holes from forming.

But young children often swallow toothpaste when they brush. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry notes that swallowing fluoridated toothpaste can cause problems. So young children should be carefully supervised when they brush their teeth. And only a small amount of fluoridated toothpaste, the size of a green pea, should be used.

Parents often wonder about what effect thumb sucking or sucking on a pacifier (橡皮奶嘴) might have on their baby's teeth. Dental experts generally agree that this is fine early in life. The American Academy of Family Physicians says most kids stop sucking their thumbs by the age of four. If it continues, the group advises parents to talk to their child's dentist or doctor. It could interfere with the correct development of permanent teeth.

Dentists say babies should be examined when their first teeth appear --- usually at around six months. Healthy teeth are meant to last a lifetime. If parents pay attention to the above tips, young children’s teeth growing can be good and healthy.

Section B (10 marks)

Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.

To be culturally competent, nurses need to understand their own world views and those of the patients. This cultural competence allows you to see the entire picture and improves the quality of care and health outcomes.

Cultural competence means to really listen to the patients, to find out and learn about the patients' beliefs with regards to health and illness, to provide culturally appropriate care, and to understand culturally influenced health behavior.

Since the viewpoint of diseases and their causes varies from culture to culture, these individual preferences affect the approaches to health care. Culture also influences how people seek health care and how they behave towards health care providers. Health care providers must possess the ability and knowledge to communicate and understand health behavior influenced by culture. Thus, to deliver culturally competent care, related policies, practices and procedures should be developed.

CR Meyer, the author of the book, Medicine's Melting Pot, describes four major challenges in health care .The first is the challenge of recognizing clinical(临床的) differences among people of different racial groups. The second is communication. This deals with everything from the need for translators to the differences in words in various languages. Some patients, even in Western cultures don't want to talk about personal matters. The third challenge is ethics(道德规范). Respect for the belief systems of others and the effects of those beliefs on well-being are very important to competent care. The final challenge involves trust. For some patients, authoritative figures are immediately mistrusted, sometimes for good reason. Having been victims of accidents at the hands of authorities in their homelands, many people are as cautious of caregivers themselves as they are of the care.

As individuals, nurses and health care providers, we need to learn to ask questions skillfully and show respect for different cultural beliefs. Most importantly, we must listen to our patients carefully. The main source of problems in caring for patients from diverse cultural backgrounds is the lack of understanding.
