Australia is one of the best places in the world to live while you learn. The standard of living is amongst the highest in the world, yet costs remain competitive. On your breaks from study, you will have a wide choice of activities to enrich your experience--from cultural festivals, concerts and museums, to major sporting events.
Australian education has a strong international reputation for excellence. Whether you study at a university, school, vocational or English language institute, you will receive a quality education that will form a strong foundation for your future success.
The benefits of living and learning in Australia are both personal and academic. Your years in Australia will give you the best platform to succeed in your career, and prepare you for the challenges of the work place. It won’t just be your mind that develops--your time in the classroom will change you as a person.
You can find out here about courses, institutions, studying and living costs, the application process, visa requirements and much more. If you’ve already decided on an institution, use the search function to learn more about that university, training course or language school.
If you haven’t decided yet, let our Study Wizard guide you through all the steps of selecting a course and enrolling to study in Australia. You can also click the Student Response Facility if you can’t find the information you are looking for.
If you want an Australian education but can’t travel here to receive it, you’ll be pleased to hear that many Australian institutions now provide education and training to students living outside of Australia. Some of these institutions have established their own campuses in other countries, while others offer courses in partnership with overseas institutions.
61. The text is most probably taken from___________.
A. a website B. a newspaper C. a brochure D. a magazine
62. Which of the following are included as strong points to attract overseas students to study in Australia?
① High standard but competitive cost of living
② Convenient access to application information
③ Focus on the overall development of students
④ Various means in receiving education and training
A. ①②③ B. ②③④ C. ①③④ D. ①②④
63. The text recommends the following available ways of receiving Australian education and training EXCEPT ___________.
A. going to study in Australia
B. attending online courses at home
C. going to Australian campuses opened in one’s native country
D. attending courses opened in partnership with Australian institutions
B
Close relationships, thought to help communication by giving speakers a common context, are actually more likely to make crossed wires than when strangers are involved, a new study suggests.
Because close colleagues and friends already share so much common knowledge that they often use short, ambiguous(模糊的) messages which can lead to misunderstandings.
“People are so used to talking with those with whom they already share a great deal of information that, when they have something really new to share, they often present it in a way that they assume the person already knows it.” says study-team member Boaz Keysar.
Keysar and his graduate student, Shall Wu, trained 40 pairs of undergraduate students to memorize made-up names and descriptions of strange shapes. In each pair, the “director” had to communicate the identity of one of the 24 shapes. The partner had to use the information to choose the correct shape from a set of three images on a computer monitor.
Half of the partners studied only the first six shapes, while the others learned the first 18 shapes. The directors, who had memorized all the shapes, were aware of their partners’ knowledge levels of the shapes.
In the pairs with the most shared knowledge, the directors were more likely to rattle off (快速背出)shape names, compared with pairs with little knowledge overlap(重合), in which the directors were more likely to describe the actual shapes. Not surprisingly, participants with more shared knowledge were twice as likely to ask for clarification as those with less overlap.
Language itself can be confusing. “The reason all this is happening at all is that language in general is ambiguous,” said Keysar.
He recalls an ambiguous billboard near a stadium holding a Rolling Stones concert that night. The billboard read, “Avoid LSD tonight.” (注：LSD常作”迷幻药”的缩略语)
Hmmm? “It was about Lake Shore Drive, and I’m sure the writer of the sign didn’t realize he was being ambiguous,” Keysar said.
“Even though miscommunication can lead to missed meetings or deadlines, people are often unaware when their language is ambiguous,” Keysar added, “We don’t realize we say things that are ambiguous,” he said, “and that’s a problem.”
64. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Electric wires joined together. B. Riddles hard to figure out.
C. Misunderstandings in communication. D. Offensive remarks.
65. In Keysar’s experiment, which of the following gives more accurate descriptions of the shapes?
A. The “directors” of the pairs with little shared knowledge.
B. The “directors” of the pairs who shared more knowledge.
C. The partners whose directors rattle off shape names.
D. The partners whose directors give clear clarifications.
66. It can be inferred from the example of the billboard that _________.
A. most people know what LSD usually refers to
B. local people would not misunderstand the meaning of LSD
C. the writer of the sign means to play jokes on those attending the concert
D. people sometimes ignore the limitation of shared knowledge
67. By this passage, the author mainly wants to say ___________.
A. ambiguous language can lead to misunderstandings
B. familiarity can mess up communication
C. accurate descriptions of identity help guess shapes
D. close relationships do not mean good communication
C
Maybe you’re really busy. Maybe you don’t have much to say. Or maybe you’re just lazy. Not a problem. This free service works by letting you broadcast a group text message to your friends’ mobile phones from either your own phone, an instant message or an online form at twitter.com. All your notes are then stored and displayed on your personal profile page on the site, which includes links to your friends’ Twitter pages, a thumbnail picture of your choice, and a short bio. All this is what the new service Twitter can bring you. Just remember to keep it short: posts are limited to 40 characters, and the topic is, invariably, “What are you doing?”
More often than not, it turns out, Twitter’s 100,000 members--twice as many as it had just a month ago, according to Twitter business development director Biz Stone--are simply killing time. Even Presidential hopeful John Edwards is on it, although he seems to be the only one thinking about more than lunch. As I type this, Caroline is mulling over some Girl Scout cookies, Ian Hocking is “waiting for Jessica to arrive so we can eat!” and Hlantz is “having a nice cup of Soft Starmint tea.”
The chatter (闲话) about Twitter turned into a virtual roar two weeks ago during the South by Southwest Multimedia Festival in Austin, Texas, when the barebones service owned by Blogger founder Evan Williams, 34, was named the best blogging tool and attendees used it to meet up at parties. Nevertheless, Twitter has been the top term on blog search engine Technorati for the past two weeks.
Plenty of people would happily have Twitter silenced, rather than tolerate the beeping alert for yet another new text message. But I’m betting that Twitter will get a lot noisier before netizens move on to the next new thing. We cyber-junkies need a new thrill, and what is better than a service like Twitter that combines social networking, blogging and texting? And if you don’t like it, well, in the words of one Twit from San Francisco, “I’m so sick to death of Twitter-haters. If you don’t like it, why waste your time writing, reading, or talking about it?”
68. This text is intended to __________.
A. point out the virtues and faults of Twitter
B. tell people how to use Twitter to communicate
C. give a general outline of Twitter. com
D. introduce a new and easy way of instant communication
69. According to the text, Twitter is designed mainly for the purpose of ___________.
A. promoting products and services B. talking about small daily things
C. discussing serious social matters D. attracting voters for presidential election
70. We know from the text that Twitter may be superior to Blogger in that ________.
A. it limits each user’s texting under 140 words
B. it saves users’ time and thinking
C. it can be easily operated through users’ mobile phones
D. it is newly invented by Blogger owner Evan Williams
71. By quoting one Twit from San Francisco, the author implies that ___________.
A. like it or not, Twitter will be accepted by more and more people
B. if one doesn’t like Twitter, he/she can choose not to mention it
C. writing, reading and talking about Twitter is a waste of time
D. twitter users naturally have a strong dislike for non-Twitter users
D
A teacher in New York decided to honor each of her seniors in high school by telling them the difference they each made. She called each student to the front of the class, one at a time. First she told them how the student made a difference to her and the class. Then she presented each of them with a blue ribbon imprinted with gold letters which read, “Who I Am Makes a Difference.”
Afterwards the teacher told the students to do a class project to see what kind of impact recognition would have on a community. She gave each of the students three more ribbons and instructed them to go out and spread this acknowledgement ceremony.
One of the boys in the class went to a junior manager in a nearby company and honored him for helping him with his career planning. He gave him a blue ribbon and put it on his shirt. Then he gave him two extra ribbons, and told him what it was all about.
Later that day the junior manager went in to see his boss, who had been noted, by the way, as being kind of a bad-tempered fellow. He sat his boss down and he told him that he deeply admired him for being a creative genius. The boss seemed very surprised. The junior manager asked him if he would accept the gift of the blue ribbon and give him permission to put it on him. His surprised boss said, “Well, sure.
The junior manager took the blue ribbon and placed it right on his boss’s jacket above his heart. Then he gave him the last extra ribbon, and repeated what the boy had told him.
That night the boss came home to his 14-year-old son and sat him down. He said, “The most incredible thing happened to me today. I was in my office when one of the junior managers came in and told me he admired me and gave me a blue ribbon for being a creative genius. Then he put this blue ribbon that says 'Who I Am Makes A Difference’ on my jacket. He gave me an extra ribbon and asked me to find somebody else to honor. As I was driving home tonight, I started thinking about whom I would honor with this ribbon and I thought about you. I want to honor you.”
“I’m really busy around all day and when I come home I don’t pay a lot of attention to you and sometimes I scream at you, but somehow tonight, I just wanted to sit here and well, just let you know that you do make a difference to me. You’re a great kid and I love you!”
The startled boy started to sob and sob, and he couldn’t stop crying. He looked up at his father and said through his tears, “I was planning on committing suicide tomorrow, Dad, because I didn’t think you loved me. Now I don’t need to.”
72. What does the blue ribbon in the passage indicate?
A. Recognition of you from others. B. Appreciation for what you’ve done for others’
C. A sign of love and being loved. D. A symbol of respect.
73. Why was the boss surprised at what the junior manager said and did?
A. Because the boss was usually bad-tempered.
B. Because the junior manager was not afraid of his bad temper.
C. Because he didn’t expect his juniors to appreciate him.
D. Because it embarrassed him to wear such a blue ribbon.
74. The change in the boss implies that ____________.
A. positive comments work better than criticism
B. blue ribbons are a good sign of understanding between people
C. he would never be bad-mannered to his employees
D. everybody can make a difference to the world
75. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
A. Who You Are Makes a Difference B. Blue Ribbon, a Sign of Acknowledgement
C. Bad Temper Can Be Changed D. Appreciation Can Prevent Juvenile Suicide
第四部分：任务型读写（共10小题：每小题1分，满分10分）
阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。
A conflict at work is common. If you can avoid conflict, it means you will win what you want regardless of what the other person wants. Since the potential issue has not been removed, it will simply reappear later. Here are the necessary steps to effectively get rid of conflicts at work.
★Be aware of the fact that some conflicts are unavoidable at work. On numerous occasions, conflict and disagreement are likely to happen. But when a conflict happens it's not the end of the world. On the contrary, it can be the beginning of an interesting learning process. Conflicts mean that people care enough to disagree strongly. The trick is not to allow the conflict to go on forever.
★ Deal with conflicts sooner rather than later. Solve a conflict when it starts, as it only gets worse with time going by. Conflicts at work arise not from something that was said, but from something that wasn't said! Everyone's waiting for the other to admit he's wrong and gets more unpleasant after the conflict has lasted a while. It's essential to interrupt the "waiting game" before it gets to that point.
★ Ask nicely. If somebody has done something that made you angry, or if you don't understand their viewpoint or actions, simply asking nicely about it can make a world of difference. Never assume that people do what they do to annoy or hurt you. Sometimes there's a good reason why that person does what he or she does, and a potential conflict disappear right there. Do remember to make an inquiry, not an accusation of any sort.
★ Appreciate. Praise the other part in the conflict. Tell them why it's worth it to you to solve the conflict. This can be difficult as few people find it easy to praise and appreciate a person they disagree strongly with, but it's a great way to move forward.
Topic
How to 1. ______ conflicts at work

附完形填空、阅读理解
完形填空：文章大意：作者是一位17岁的中学生，利用业余时间打工。一天，在身心疲惫打工的时候，一个人一句话使作者对自己的前途重燃希望。那句话是：You Are Going Places（你前途无量）。
31.D【解析】我去上班的时候心情非常不好。feeling down 是现在分词作伴随状语，意为“闷闷不乐”。倒数第二段的They 47 my spirit from being down也说明了该题答案。
32.A【解析】应付那些抱怨食品、座位等的顾客是大大小小的事情。deal with表示“对付”；help with帮助某人做......；talk with和......交谈；meet with遇到，经受。
33.B【解析】顾客抱怨他们就座的位置。seat是使动词，表示“使坐下”，be seated意为“坐下，就座”；sit是不及物动词，应为where they sat。
34.D【解析】诸如此类的小事容易造成我们雇员的烦恼。annoy表示“使生气”。因为作者前面提到了顾客的种种抱怨，因此只能导致雇员的烦恼、生气。attract吸引；avoid避免；adjust调整。
35.A【解析】诸如此类的小事容易造成我们雇员的烦恼。剧中的our和下文的we给答案做了提示。employees表示“受雇者，雇工”。
36.C【解析】他们碰巧坐在我存放过用过的盘子附近的地方。spot表示“地方，地点”。根据后面的where I keep the dirty 37 in the boxes句子，排除B项；不可能把脏盘子放在客人用餐的桌子上，故排除A；kitchen不会与客人用餐的地方处于同一个位置，故排除D。
37.A【解析】the dirty dishes指客人用过的盘子。因为作者是在餐厅打工的学生，所以“端盘子”才能与文章主题相符。
38.C【解析】顾客们的进进出出、服务人员的穿梭走动。该空指服务人员在餐馆的来回走动，穿梭服务。顾客们是来这里就餐的，不能来回走，故排除D，A，B两项太片面。
39.C【解析】虽然餐馆处于一片忙乱的状态，但是这三位妇女在专心的看着我。该空前的crazy给该空提出了暗示。
40.B【解析】注视着我为了确保每张桌子是干净的去迎接下一位顾客，而多么努力的工作。how相当于how hard。
41.A【解析】她们吃晚饭的时候。根据下文的I took their plates back to the kitchen排除C、D选项；complete往往用于完成“建筑物”、“工程”、“书籍”等；而finish制作完手中的事情，如：“用完”、“吃完”等。
42.B【解析】她们询问我上哪个年级。通过上下文，可知作者是个打工的学生，故B项符合文章。grade表示“年级”；mark分数。
43.C【解析】当她们离开的时候，她们走过我身边。as引导时间状语从句时，表示主从句的动作同时发生。由句意排除A、D选项；while引导时间状语从句时，从句中的谓语动词是延续性动词。
44.A【解析】她们从我身边走过时，有一个人用自信和温和的语调说。由下文的You are going places.（你前途无量）推测说话者语气。因为说话人在鼓励作者，所以只有A项符合语境。
45.C【解析】客人说完后就离开了餐馆。由下文知道，they指three elderly ladies，她们来餐馆用餐。
46.B【解析】根据文意可知，别人给予了作者自信的“勇气”，作者才得以重新振作起来。
47.B【解析】她们让我振作起来。pick up表示“使恢复精神”。put down放下，镇压；take over接管；point out指出。
48.B【解析】她们给了我继续努力的理由。reason表示某种行为的原因；cause表示某种现象的原因。
49.A【解析】有人曾经告诉我，没有学位，我就不能从事电视台的工作。下文的I'm now a co-anchor（联合主持人）of a student-produced television 50.暗示这里的答案。

Australia is one of the best places in the world to live while you learn. The standard of living is amongst the highest in the world, yet costs remain competitive. On your breaks from study, you will have a wide choice of activities to enrich your experience--from cultural festivals, concerts and museums, to major sporting events.
Australian education has a strong international reputation for excellence. Whether you study at a university, school, vocational or English language institute, you will receive a quality education that will form a strong foundation for your future success.
The benefits of living and learning in Australia are both personal and academic. Your years in Australia will give you the best platform to succeed in your career, and prepare you for the challenges of the work place. It won’t just be your mind that develops--your time in the classroom will change you as a person.
You can find out here about courses, institutions, studying and living costs, the application process, visa requirements and much more. If you’ve already decided on an institution, use the search function to learn more about that university, training course or language school.
If you haven’t decided yet, let our Study Wizard guide you through all the steps of selecting a course and enrolling to study in Australia. You can also click the Student Response Facility if you can’t find the information you are looking for.
If you want an Australian education but can’t travel here to receive it, you’ll be pleased to hear that many Australian institutions now provide education and training to students living outside of Australia. Some of these institutions have established their own campuses in other countries, while others offer courses in partnership with overseas institutions.

Close relationships, thought to help communication by giving speakers a common context, are actually more likely to make crossed wires than when strangers are involved, a new study suggests.
Because close colleagues and friends already share so much common knowledge that they often use short, ambiguous(模糊的) messages which can lead to misunderstandings.
“People are so used to talking with those with whom they already share a great deal of information that, when they have something really new to share, they often present it in a way that they assume the person already knows it.” says study-team member Boaz Keysar.
Keysar and his graduate student, Shall Wu, trained 40 pairs of undergraduate students to memorize made-up names and descriptions of strange shapes. In each pair, the “director” had to communicate the identity of one of the 24 shapes. The partner had to use the information to choose the correct shape from a set of three images on a computer monitor.
Half of the partners studied only the first six shapes, while the others learned the first 18 shapes. The directors, who had memorized all the shapes, were aware of their partners’ knowledge levels of the shapes.
In the pairs with the most shared knowledge, the directors were more likely to rattle off (快速背出)shape names, compared with pairs with little knowledge overlap(重合), in which the directors were more likely to describe the actual shapes. Not surprisingly, participants with more shared knowledge were twice as likely to ask for clarification as those with less overlap.
Language itself can be confusing. “The reason all this is happening at all is that language in general is ambiguous,” said Keysar.
He recalls an ambiguous billboard near a stadium holding a Rolling Stones concert that night. The billboard read, “Avoid LSD tonight.” (注：LSD常作”迷幻药”的缩略语)
Hmmm? “It was about Lake Shore Drive, and I’m sure the writer of the sign didn’t realize he was being ambiguous,” Keysar said.
“Even though miscommunication can lead to missed meetings or deadlines, people are often unaware when their language is ambiguous,” Keysar added, “We don’t realize we say things that are ambiguous,” he said, “and that’s a problem.”
64. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Electric wires joined together. B. Riddles hard to figure out.
C. Misunderstandings in communication. D. Offensive remarks.
65. In Keysar’s experiment, which of the following gives more accurate descriptions of the shapes?
A. The “directors” of the pairs with little shared knowledge.
B. The “directors” of the pairs who shared more knowledge.
C. The partners whose directors rattle off shape names.
D. The partners whose directors give clear clarifications.
66. It can be inferred from the example of the billboard that _________.
A. most people know what LSD usually refers to
B. local people would not misunderstand the meaning of LSD
C. the writer of the sign means to play jokes on those attending the concert
D. people sometimes ignore the limitation of shared knowledge
67. By this passage, the author mainly wants to say ___________.
A. ambiguous language can lead to misunderstandings
B. familiarity can mess up communication
C. accurate descriptions of identity help guess shapes
D. close relationships do not mean good communication
C
Maybe you’re really busy. Maybe you don’t have much to say. Or maybe you’re just lazy. Not a problem. This free service works by letting you broadcast a group text message to your friends’ mobile phones from either your own phone, an instant message or an online form at twitter.com. All your notes are then stored and displayed on your personal profile page on the site, which includes links to your friends’ Twitter pages, a thumbnail picture of your choice, and a short bio. All this is what the new service Twitter can bring you. Just remember to keep it short: posts are limited to 40 characters, and the topic is, invariably, “What are you doing?”
More often than not, it turns out, Twitter’s 100,000 members--twice as many as it had just a month ago, according to Twitter business development director Biz Stone--are simply killing time. Even Presidential hopeful John Edwards is on it, although he seems to be the only one thinking about more than lunch. As I type this, Caroline is mulling over some Girl Scout cookies, Ian Hocking is “waiting for Jessica to arrive so we can eat!” and Hlantz is “having a nice cup of Soft Starmint tea.”
The chatter (闲话) about Twitter turned into a virtual roar two weeks ago during the South by Southwest Multimedia Festival in Austin, Texas, when the barebones service owned by Blogger founder Evan Williams, 34, was named the best blogging tool and attendees used it to meet up at parties. Nevertheless, Twitter has been the top term on blog search engine Technorati for the past two weeks.
Plenty of people would happily have Twitter silenced, rather than tolerate the beeping alert for yet another new text message. But I’m betting that Twitter will get a lot noisier before netizens move on to the next new thing. We cyber-junkies need a new thrill, and what is better than a service like Twitter that combines social networking, blogging and texting? And if you don’t like it, well, in the words of one Twit from San Francisco, “I’m so sick to death of Twitter-haters. If you don’t like it, why waste your time writing, reading, or talking about it?”
68. This text is intended to __________.
A. point out the virtues and faults of Twitter
B. tell people how to use Twitter to communicate
C. give a general outline of Twitter. com
D. introduce a new and easy way of instant communication
69. According to the text, Twitter is designed mainly for the purpose of ___________.
A. promoting products and services B. talking about small daily things
C. discussing serious social matters D. attracting voters for presidential election
70. We know from the text that Twitter may be superior to Blogger in that ________.
A. it limits each user’s texting under 140 words
B. it saves users’ time and thinking
C. it can be easily operated through users’ mobile phones
D. it is newly invented by Blogger owner Evan Williams
71. By quoting one Twit from San Francisco, the author implies that ___________.
A. like it or not, Twitter will be accepted by more and more people
B. if one doesn’t like Twitter, he/she can choose not to mention it
C. writing, reading and talking about Twitter is a waste of time
D. twitter users naturally have a strong dislike for non-Twitter users
D
A teacher in New York decided to honor each of her seniors in high school by telling them the difference they each made. She called each student to the front of the class, one at a time. First she told them how the student made a difference to her and the class. Then she presented each of them with a blue ribbon imprinted with gold letters which read, “Who I Am Makes a Difference.”
Afterwards the teacher told the students to do a class project to see what kind of impact recognition would have on a community. She gave each of the students three more ribbons and instructed them to go out and spread this acknowledgement ceremony.
One of the boys in the class went to a junior manager in a nearby company and honored him for helping him with his career planning. He gave him a blue ribbon and put it on his shirt. Then he gave him two extra ribbons, and told him what it was all about.
Later that day the junior manager went in to see his boss, who had been noted, by the way, as being kind of a bad-tempered fellow. He sat his boss down and he told him that he deeply admired him for being a creative genius. The boss seemed very surprised. The junior manager asked him if he would accept the gift of the blue ribbon and give him permission to put it on him. His surprised boss said, “Well, sure.
The junior manager took the blue ribbon and placed it right on his boss’s jacket above his heart. Then he gave him the last extra ribbon, and repeated what the boy had told him.
That night the boss came home to his 14-year-old son and sat him down. He said, “The most incredible thing happened to me today. I was in my office when one of the junior managers came in and told me he admired me and gave me a blue ribbon for being a creative genius. Then he put this blue ribbon that says 'Who I Am Makes A Difference’ on my jacket. He gave me an extra ribbon and asked me to find somebody else to honor. As I was driving home tonight, I started thinking about whom I would honor with this ribbon and I thought about you. I want to honor you.”
“I’m really busy around all day and when I come home I don’t pay a lot of attention to you and sometimes I scream at you, but somehow tonight, I just wanted to sit here and well, just let you know that you do make a difference to me. You’re a great kid and I love you!”
The startled boy started to sob and sob, and he couldn’t stop crying. He looked up at his father and said through his tears, “I was planning on committing suicide tomorrow, Dad, because I didn’t think you loved me. Now I don’t need to.”
72. What does the blue ribbon in the passage indicate?
A. Recognition of you from others. B. Appreciation for what you’ve done for others’
C. A sign of love and being loved. D. A symbol of respect.
73. Why was the boss surprised at what the junior manager said and did?
A. Because the boss was usually bad-tempered.
B. Because the junior manager was not afraid of his bad temper.
C. Because he didn’t expect his juniors to appreciate him.
D. Because it embarrassed him to wear such a blue ribbon.
74. The change in the boss implies that ____________.
A. positive comments work better than criticism
B. blue ribbons are a good sign of understanding between people
C. he would never be bad-mannered to his employees
D. everybody can make a difference to the world
75. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
A. Who You Are Makes a Difference B. Blue Ribbon, a Sign of Acknowledgement
C. Bad Temper Can Be Changed D. Appreciation Can Prevent Juvenile Suicide
第四部分：任务型读写（共10小题：每小题1分，满分10分）
阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。
A conflict at work is common. If you can avoid conflict, it means you will win what you want regardless of what the other person wants. Since the potential issue has not been removed, it will simply reappear later. Here are the necessary steps to effectively get rid of conflicts at work.
★Be aware of the fact that some conflicts are unavoidable at work. On numerous occasions, conflict and disagreement are likely to happen. But when a conflict happens it's not the end of the world. On the contrary, it can be the beginning of an interesting learning process. Conflicts mean that people care enough to disagree strongly. The trick is not to allow the conflict to go on forever.
★ Deal with conflicts sooner rather than later. Solve a conflict when it starts, as it only gets worse with time going by. Conflicts at work arise not from something that was said, but from something that wasn't said! Everyone's waiting for the other to admit he's wrong and gets more unpleasant after the conflict has lasted a while. It's essential to interrupt the "waiting game" before it gets to that point.
★ Ask nicely. If somebody has done something that made you angry, or if you don't understand their viewpoint or actions, simply asking nicely about it can make a world of difference. Never assume that people do what they do to annoy or hurt you. Sometimes there's a good reason why that person does what he or she does, and a potential conflict disappear right there. Do remember to make an inquiry, not an accusation of any sort.
★ Appreciate. Praise the other part in the conflict. Tell them why it's worth it to you to solve the conflict. This can be difficult as few people find it easy to praise and appreciate a person they disagree strongly with, but it's a great way to move forward.

附完形填空、阅读理解
完形填空：文章大意：作者是一位17岁的中学生，利用业余时间打工。一天，在身心疲惫打工的时候，一个人一句话使作者对自己的前途重燃希望。那句话是：You Are Going Places（你前途无量）。
31.D【解析】我去上班的时候心情非常不好。feeling down 是现在分词作伴随状语，意为“闷闷不乐”。倒数第二段的They 47 my spirit from being down也说明了该题答案。
32.A【解析】应付那些抱怨食品、座位等的顾客是大大小小的事情。deal with表示“对付”；help with帮助某人做......；talk with和......交谈；meet with遇到，经受。
33.B【解析】顾客抱怨他们就座的位置。seat是使动词，表示“使坐下”，be seated意为“坐下，就座”；sit是不及物动词，应为where they sat。
34.D【解析】诸如此类的小事容易造成我们雇员的烦恼。annoy表示“使生气”。因为作者前面提到了顾客的种种抱怨，因此只能导致雇员的烦恼、生气。attract吸引；avoid避免；adjust调整。
35.A【解析】诸如此类的小事容易造成我们雇员的烦恼。剧中的our和下文的we给答案做了提示。employees表示“受雇者，雇工”。
36.C【解析】他们碰巧坐在我存放过用过的盘子附近的地方。spot表示“地方，地点”。根据后面的where I keep the dirty 37 in the boxes句子，排除B项；不可能把脏盘子放在客人用餐的桌子上，故排除A；kitchen不会与客人用餐的地方处于同一个位置，故排除D。
37.A【解析】the dirty dishes指客人用过的盘子。因为作者是在餐厅打工的学生，所以“端盘子”才能与文章主题相符。
38.C【解析】顾客们的进进出出、服务人员的穿梭走动。该空指服务人员在餐馆的来回走动，穿梭服务。顾客们是来这里就餐的，不能来回走，故排除D，A，B两项太片面。
39.C【解析】虽然餐馆处于一片忙乱的状态，但是这三位妇女在专心的看着我。该空前的crazy给该空提出了暗示。
40.B【解析】注视着我为了确保每张桌子是干净的去迎接下一位顾客，而多么努力的工作。how相当于how hard。
41.A【解析】她们吃晚饭的时候。根据下文的I took their plates back to the kitchen排除C、D选项；complete往往用于完成“建筑物”、“工程”、“书籍”等；而finish制作完手中的事情，如：“用完”、“吃完”等。
42.B【解析】她们询问我上哪个年级。通过上下文，可知作者是个打工的学生，故B项符合文章。grade表示“年级”；mark分数。
43.C【解析】当她们离开的时候，她们走过我身边。as引导时间状语从句时，表示主从句的动作同时发生。由句意排除A、D选项；while引导时间状语从句时，从句中的谓语动词是延续性动词。
44.A【解析】她们从我身边走过时，有一个人用自信和温和的语调说。由下文的You are going places.（你前途无量）推测说话者语气。因为说话人在鼓励作者，所以只有A项符合语境。
45.C【解析】客人说完后就离开了餐馆。由下文知道，they指three elderly ladies，她们来餐馆用餐。
46.B【解析】根据文意可知，别人给予了作者自信的“勇气”，作者才得以重新振作起来。
47.B【解析】她们让我振作起来。pick up表示“使恢复精神”。put down放下，镇压；take over接管；point out指出。
48.B【解析】她们给了我继续努力的理由。reason表示某种行为的原因；cause表示某种现象的原因。
49.A【解析】有人曾经告诉我，没有学位，我就不能从事电视台的工作。下文的I'm now a co-anchor（联合主持人）of a student-produced television 50.暗示这里的答案。
