18、e must-know information from a handbook on how people behave in doing business in some countries.In BrazilBrazilians are warm and friendly. They often stand close when talking and it is common for them to touch the person on the shoulder. People often greet each other (particularly women) with light
19、 cheek kisses. Schedules tend to be flexible, with business meetings sometimes starting later than planned. But to be safe, be on time. Meals can stretch for hourstheres no such thing as rushing a meal in Brazil. Lunches also can start in the mid to late afternoon. Brazilians are social, preferring
20、face-to-face communication over mails or phone calls.In SingaporeSingaporeans shake hands when they meet and often also greet each other with a small, polite bow. Business cards should be offered and received with two hands. Arriving late is considered disrespectful. So be on time. Efficiency(效率) is
21、 the goal, so meetings and dealings often are fast-paced. Singaporeans are direct in their discussions, even when the subject is about money. Rank is important and authority is respected. This determines both people interact in meetings. For example, people avoid disagreeing outright with someone wi
22、th a higher rank.In the United Arab EmiratesIn the UAE, status is important, so the most senior or oldest should be greeted first with their titles. The handshake seems to be longer than elsewhere. So, do not pull away the handshake. Women should cover themselves when it comes to dress. Men also ten
23、d to be covered from neck to elbows(肘部) and down to the knees. People do not avoid entertaining in their homes, but they also hold business meals at restaurants. Touching or passing food or eating with your left hand is to be avoided. When meetings are one-to-one, if your host offers you coffee, you
24、 should refuse. It might seem odd, but it is a cultural tradition. Coffee should only be accepted if it is always set out or presented.In SwitzerlandThe Swiss tend to be formal and address each other by last name. They also are respectful of private lives. You should be careful not to ask about pers
25、onal topics. Punctuality (守时) is vital, something that comes from a deep respect for others time. Arrive at any meeting or even a few minutes early to be safe. They also have clear structure in their companies. Higher-ups make the final decisions, even if others might disagree. Neat, clean dress is

29、acking our senses to boost learning powerSome schools are pumping music, noises and pleasant smells into the classroom to see if it improves exam results. Could it work? Why do songs stick in our heads? What does your school smell like? Is it noisy or peaceful?It might not seem important, but a grow
30、ing body of research suggests that smells and sounds can have an impact on learning, performance and creativity. Indeed, some head teachers have recently taken to broadcasting noises and pumping smells into their schools to see whether it can boost grades. Is there anything in it? And if so, what ar
31、e the implications for the way we work and study?There is certainly some well-established research to suggest that some noises can have a harmful effect on learning. Numerous studies over the past 15 years have found that children attending schools under the flight paths of large airports fall behin
32、d in their exam results. Bridget Shield, a professor of acoustics (声学) at London South Bank University, and Julie Dockrell, from the Institute of Education, have been conducting studies on the effects of all sorts of noises, such as traffic and sirens (汽笛), as well as noise generated by the children
33、 themselves. When they recreated those particular sounds in an experimental setting while children completed various learning tasks, they found a significant negative effect on exam scores.Everything points to a bad impact of the noise on childrens performance, in numeracy, in literacy, and in spell
34、ing,says Shield. The noise seemed to have an especially harmful effect on children with special needs.Whether background sounds are beneficial or not seems to depend on what kind of noise it is and the volume. In a series of studies published last year, Ravi Mehta from the College of Business at Ill
35、inois and his colleagues tested peoples creativity while exposed to a soundtrack made up of background noises such as coffee-shop chatter and construction-site drilling at different volumes. They found that people were more creative when the background noises were played at a medium level than when
36、volume was low. Loud background noise, however, damaged their creativity.Many teachers all over the world already play music to students in class. Many are inspired by the belief that hearing music can boost IQ in later tasks, the so-called Mozart effect. While the evidence actually suggests its har
37、d to say classical music boosts brainpower, researchers do think pleasant sounds before a task can sometimes lift your mood and help you perform well, says Perham, who has done his own studies on the phenomenon. The key appears to be that you enjoy what youre hearing. If you like the music or you li
38、ke the sound even listening to a Stephen King novel then you do better. It doesnt matter about the music, he says.So, it seems that schools that choose to prevent disturbing noises and create positive soundscapes could enhance the learning of their students, so long as they make careful choices. Yet
39、 this isnt the only sense being used to affect learning. Special educational needs students at Sydenham high school in London are being encouraged to revise different subjects in the presence of different smells grapefruit scents for maths, lavender for French and spearmint for history.45. The four
40、questions in the first paragraph are meant to _.Acreate some sense of humour to please the readersBprovide the most frequently asked questions in schools nowadaysChold the readers attention and arouse their curiosity to go on readingDdeclare the purpose of the article: to try to offer key to those q
41、uestions46. What does the conclusion of the studies of noise conducted by Bridget Shield and Julie Dockrell suggest?APeaceful music plays an active role in students learning.BNot all noises have a negative impact on childrens performance.CWe should create for school children a more peaceful environm
42、ent.DChildren with special needs might be exposed to some particular sounds.47. Ravi Mehtas experiment indicates that _.Astudents creativity improves in a quiet environmentBwe may play some Mozart music while students are learningCa proper volume of background noises does improve creativityDnoise of
43、 coffee-shop chatter is better than that of construction-site drilling48. Towards the positive impact of appropriate background sound and smell on students learning and creativity, the authors attitude is _.AambiguousBdoubtfulCnegativeDsupportive49. Which of the following is most likely to follow up
44、 the research findings?AExperts research into other senses that can improve students grades.BMore successful examples of boosting learning power by using music.CSuggestions for pumping lots of pleasant smells into school campuses.DDebates on whether noises can really have positive effect on students
45、 performance.CTwo things changed my life: my mother and a white plastic bike basket. I have thought long and hard about it and its true. I would be a different person if my mom hadnt turned a silly bicycle accessory into a life lesson I carry with me today.My mother and father were united in their w
46、ay of raising children, but it mostly fell to my mother to actually carry it out. Looking back, I honestly dont know how she did it. Managing the family budget must have been a very hard task, but she made it look effortless. If we complained about not having what another kid did, wed hear something
47、 like, I dont care what so-and-so got for his birthday, you are not getting a TV in your room/a car for your birthday/a lavish sweet-16 party. We had to earn our allowance(零用钱)by doing chores around the house. I can still remember how long it took to polish the legs of our coffee table. My brothers
48、can no doubt remember hours spent cleaning the house. Like the two little girls growing up at the White House, we made our own beds (no one left the house until that was done) and picked up after ourselves. We had to keep track of our belongings, and if something was lost, it was not replaced.It was
49、 summer and, one day, my mother drove me to the bike shop to get a tire fixedand there it was in the window.White, shiny, plastic and decorated with flowers, the basket winked at me and I knewI knewI had to have it.Its beautiful, my mother said when I pointed it out to her, What a neat basket.I trie
50、d to hold off at first, I played it cool for a short while. But then I guess I couldntstand it any longer: Mom, please can I please, please get it? Ill do extra chores for as long as you say.Ill do anything, but I need that basket, I love that basket. Please, Mom. Please?I was desperate.You know, sh
51、e said, gently rubbing my back while we both stared at what I believedwas the coolest thing ever, If you save up you could buy this yourself.By the time I make enough itll be gone!Maybe Roger here could hold it for you, she smiled at Roger, the bike guy.He cant hold it for that long, Mom. Someone el
52、se will buy it .Please, Mom, Please?There might be another way, she said.And so our paying plan unfolded. My mother bought the beautiful basket and put it safely in some hiding place I couldnt find. Each week I eagerly counted my growing savingsincreased by extra work here and there (washing the car
53、, helping my mother make dinner, delivering or collecting things on my bike that already lookednaked without the basket in front).And then, weeks later, I counted, re-counted and jumped for joy. Oh, happy day! I made it! I finally had the exact amount wed agreed upon.Days later the unthinkable happe
54、ned. A neighborhood girl Id played with millions of times appeared with the exact same basket fixed to her shiny, new bike that already had all the bells and whistles. I rode hard and fast home to tell my mother about this disaster. This horrible turn of events.And then came the lesson Ive taken wit
55、h me through my life: Honey, Your basket is extra-special, Mom said, gently wiping away my hot tears. Your basket is special because you paid for it yourself.50.
