2、Pronouncing a LanguagePronouncing a language is a skill. Every normal person is an expert in the skill of pronouncing his own language; but few people are even fairly proficient at pronouncing foreign languages. Now there are many reasons forthis, some obvious, some perhaps not so obvious. But I suggest that the basic reason why people in general do not speak foreign languages very much better than they do native language is that they fail to understand the true nature of the problem of learning to pronounce. Far too many people fail to realize that pronouncing a foreign language is a skill----one that needs careful training of a special kind, and one that cannot be gained by just leaving it to take care of itself. I think even teachers of language, while realizing the importance of a good accent, often neglect, in their practical teaching, the branch of study concerned with speaking the language. So the first point I want to make is that English pronunciation must be taught; the teacher should be prepared to devote some of the lesson time to this, and get the student to feel that here is a matter worthy of receiving his close attention. So, there should be occasions when other aspects of English, such as grammar orspelling, are allowed forthe moment to take second place.Besides this question of the time given to pronunciation, there are two other requirements forthe teacher: the first, knowledge; the second, technique.It is also possible to get a clear mental picture of the relationship between the sounds of different languages, between the speech habits of English people and those, say, of your students. Unless the teacher has such a picture, any comments he may make on his students\' pronunciation are unlikely to be of much use, and lesson time spent on pronunciation may well be time wasted.What does a student who masters correct speech habits depend on?【单选题】
A.The teacher\'s proper teaching technique
B.The learning of grammar .
C.The knowledge of spelling
D.The teacher\'s teaching method forpronunciation
正确答案:D
答案解析:根据最后一段提到“除非老师……,否则对学生发音训练的指导就不会有大用处,用在发音训练上花的时间就是浪费”。这句话的意思说的更明确些就是,教师的授课技巧,因此答案是D。
3、Working Successfully within Cultural BoundariesSoon after starting our job in China, we realized that the greatest challenge we faced would not be our day-to-day responsibilities but a completely foreign work environment and culture.We were used to the very direct, sometimes confrontational, but more equal style of management in the United States. Here, we were faced with the never-direct, never-confrontational style of management common in Asia.We often hear similar stories. One woman shared her experience of returning to China after more than 15 years in the US. Although she spent most of her childhood in China, she felt that her colleagues\' thinking processes were completely foreign to her. She needed to adapt herself to the culture of her company only then would she be successful at her job. In the end, she wasn\'t able to successfully re-adapt herself to the culture. What she didn\'t realize was that, rather than disagreeing with her ideas, they disagreed with her method of implementing them. Forexample, instead of recognizing her company\'s strict chain-of-command, she had in one case taken her plan straight to the company chairman. This action consequently caused her superiors to lose face. She had unwittingly broken a cardinal rule of Chinese culture.One man who spent many years overseas before returning to China to head up the local operations of a multinational company, had a similar experience. In his first management team meeting, he presented his plans fora new direction in China operations. His request was met with an uncomfortable silence, with none of the managers daring to speak up. They had not been prepared forhis open style of management. Soon he quickly determined that his first on-the-job challenge would be to build up managers\' confidence in him, and that he had to do this individually, not in a group. Within a year, their management team meetings were transformed into the interactive, brainstorming sessions that he intended them to be.Therefore, it wasn\'t until after we had learned to appreciate the culture of our workplace and earned the confidence and trust of our inferiors that we were able to move forward and successfully do our job. We must first understand and accept a culture forwhat it is; only then will we be able to successfully work within it.What are the differences in style of management in the USA and China according to the author?【单选题】
A.In the USA, it is indirect style of management. In China, it is direct.
B.In the USA, it is direct style of management. In China, it is never-direct.
C.In the USA, it is always confrontational. In China, it is sometimes confrontational.
D.In the USA, it is equal. In China it is unequal.
正确答案:B
答案解析:根据第2段,文中说“我们习惯了美国的直接、有时针锋相对,但是更为平等的管理模式,但是在这里我们面临的是在亚洲普遍存在的不直接、不正面交锋的管理模式”,因此答案是B

5、Life at Aichi UniversityI\'m Yamamoto Mika, a 22 years old Japanese girl. I\'d like to invite you to Aichi University so you can understand my life.Our university has a close relationship with China and my department is the only one of its kind in Japan. My courses include the Chinese language, modern Chinese politics and economics. I love Chinese culture and I have been to Tianjin as an exchange student.In Japan, our courses are divided into compulsory, optional and specialized courses. However, we have a flexible schedule. We can choose classes from a wide range of options.Many students finish the compulsory courses in three years so that they can have one year without any classes. They often use this period of time to study abroad, conduct research and travel. Many students even suspend their study foradditional study - abroad opportunities,Japanese universities encourage students to choose their own ways of study, so it is quite easy forus to apply forstudy suspension.Japanese students participate in various kinds of extracurricular (课外的) activities. They attend clubs from elementary schools, so many students have already been accustomed to clubs when they enter university.Our university now has 42 art clubs and 45 sports clubs. The annual University Festival is the grandest carnival (狂欢节) of Japanese universities. In the festival, students promote their clubs and organize various activities. Our university\'s festival attracted about 150,000 people last year. I really like this festival.When we promote our clubs, we cook "tonnjiru", a kind of pork soup, and sell it to other students at the fair.We also go to different places to interview celebrities (名人) who attend our festival as guests. It is a wonderful experience to talk to those stars face to face.Japanese students like to hold parties. We have two kinds of parties. One is the Mochivori party. If you want to attend this party you have to cook something and take it to the party. The organizer buys drinks and snacks.The other kind of party is the Nomikai, which mainly involves alcohol. We drink something called chu - hai, which is a combination of soda and wine. We also drink Japanese sake (日本米酒) and beer. There are parties formany occasions, like welcoming new students, celebrating victories and birthday parties orjust forpromoting friendship.What is the requirement forattending the Mochiyori party? ____【单选题】
