50、 in England, he made friends with an English pilot. He spent his leave with the pilot and his family in the country. He also fell in love with the pilots sister; the three were good buddies.

58、r, but it became widely popular after the publication of Daniel Golemans best seller “Emotional Intelligence” in 1995. The meaning of emotional intelligence is “Knowing how you and others feel and what to do about it.” The control center of our emotions is a small part of our brain called the amygda
59、la, which scans incoming signals from our sensory organs(eyes, ears. )and acts as the emotional alarm center of our body. When it detects a condition that we hate, that we fear, or that could hurt us, it sends an immediate signal to the other parts of our brain that controls our actions. The amygdal
60、as widespread web of neural(神经系统的) connections allows it, during an emotional emergency, to take control of much of the rest of the brain including the mind. This explains why we sometimes do things “without thinking” like closing our eyes just before a flying insect hits our face or losing control
61、during the course of a heated argument. Emotions are important for good decisionmaking and to keep friendly relationships with others around us. We admire people with determination who have the ability to control their emotions when they face pressure, arguments or aggression(attack). We also enjoy
62、being with people who can express cooperation and forgiveness. We needs these emotions to be happy in our professional life as much as we need them in our private life. The majority of problems at work are caused by unmet emotional needs. The emotionalintelligent manager knows how to make out and ma
63、nage the emotional needs of both the customers and his team. He or she, wants to help others feel respected, supported, helped, trusted, important, special, useful, needed and valued. When our emotional needs are satisfied, we feel better, and when we feel better, we are more productive, patient, cr
64、eative, openminded, and caring. Emotional intelligence requires that we develop our abilities in four main areas:1)selfawareness being aware of our emotions as they happen;2)managing emotions keeping a healthy balance of emotion and thinking;3)recognizing emotions in others its a great communicating
65、 skill;4)handling relationshipsmanaging emotions in others increases our popularity, our leadership ability and our communication effectiveness.60When did EQ become popular?A. After Peter Salovey and John Mayer defined the term.B. After computers became widely spread in our life.C. After Daniel Gole
66、man published his book on EQ.D. After an expert said it was quite important.答案与解析:C第一段可知在Daniel Goleman的畅销书Emotional Intelligence在1995年出版之后EQ开始流行。61Which of the following controls our emotion?A. Amygdala in our brains.B. Our sensory organs.C. Our mind.D. Our head.答案与解析:A在第二段第一句开始可知amygdala控制我们的感情中心。
67、62What is the reason for most of the problems we meet at work?A. Our emotional needs cannot be satisfied.B. We cannot get along well with others.C. We do not have the nerves of steel.D. We are extremely tired.答案与解析:A第五段第一句可知我们在工作中的主要问题是由感情未得到满足而引起的。63According to the passage, “managing emotions” sug
68、gests that _.A. we should always control our emotionsB. we should not always control our emotionsC. we should not care so much about our emotionsD. we should neither control nor free our emotions too much答案与解析:D从2)managing emotions之处可知,我们应该保持感情和想法的平衡,因此选D项,既不控制太紧也不完全放松。C Advertising actually has a d
69、ual (双重的) function:to sell, as well as to inform. If you stop to think of it, advertisements (ads) provide information of almost everything in our household and immediate environment,from shampoo to fuel for cars. An obvious purpose is to inform consumers of new products and services as well as to r
70、emind them of established ones. Performance, price, value for money, quality and reliability are some of the main features mentioned in ads. Yet there is another important side of advertising that should not be forgotten:choice. A number of ads for different brands of the same product, eg. toothpast
71、e, shampoo or washing powder allow the consumer to choose. Choice is an important part of buying. In this busy day and age, there is little time for comparison shopping. To determine which product is the best to buy, consumers these days rely on advertising in its various forms. This saves time and
72、energy and makes shopping easier. Few can deny that ads benefit the consumer since they encourage healthy competition. When companies compete for the consumers dollar, this is good for the purchaser of the product or service. Advertising tends to increase competition since it informs consumers of wh
73、at is available. One companys offer will be either matched or bettered by another company in its advertising. It was unheard of ten years ago to buy products directly using a personal computer,but it has become a matter of course for some people to browse (浏览) the Internet, surf until they find an e
74、commerce site and then select the product. Marketing products has been almost turned upside down by new ways of selling and buying. More than at any time in history, the choice of goods is unlimited. The whole world is a customers marketplace. For busy people like you and me, advertisements actually
75、 do us a favor.64. What the writer of this passage wants to tell us most is that _.

B. To provide consumers with chances to choose. C. To increase healthy competition of companies. D. To c
77、hange the way of selling and buying.答案与解析:D细节理解题。文章首段谈论了A项;第二、三段谈论了B项;第四段谈论了C项;而只有第五段中“Marketing products. buying”对此有所提及,讨论得最少,故D项正确。66.

78、ying on advertising and simplifying shoppingD. buying a product at the least competitive price答案与解析:B词义猜测题。结合语境尤其是下一句中的“To determine which product is the best to buy”可知,B项正确。67.

Nowadays, they want to know your website. These da
80、ys, having a web address is almost as important as a street address. Your website is an electronic meeting place for your family, friends and millions of people around the world. Best of all, you may not have to spend a cent. The web is filled with all kinds of free services and all it takes is some
81、 time and creativity. Think of your home pages as the starting point of your website. Like the table of contents of a book or magazine, the home page is the front door. Your site can have one or more pages, depending on how you design it.While web pages vary greatly in their design and content, most
82、 use a traditional magazine layout(编排). At the top of the page is a banner(横幅) GRAPHIC. Next comes a greeting and a short description of the site. Pictures, texts, and links to other websites follow. Before you start building your site, do some planning. Think about whom the site is for and what you
83、 want to say. Next, gather up the material you want to put on the site. Draw a rough layout on a sheet of paper. While there are no rules you have to follow, there are a few things to keep in mind: Start simply. If you aim too high at the beginning, you may never get the site off the ground. You can
84、 always add something new to your site. Less is better. Most people don t like to read a lot of texts online. Break it into small pieces. Smaller is better. Since it takes a long time to download large picture files(资料), keep the file sizes small. Now its time to roll up your sleeves and start build
85、ing.
