Hi

19、s hunt was going 【31】 that day, and he couldnt seem to find anything worthy of 【32】 his rifle. Then, his staff captured a black baby bear for the President to shoot, but he could not. The thought of shooting a bear that was tied to a tree did not seem sporting, so he 【33】 the life of the baby bear a

20、nd set it free. Based on this story, a famous political cartoonist for the Washington Star drew a cartoon, which showed Teddy Roosevelt, rifle 【34】 . with his back turned on a cute (可爱的) baby bear. Morris Michtom, owner of a Brooklyn toy store, was 【35】 by the cartoon to make a stuffed baby bear. In

21、tending it only as a display, he placed the stuffed bear in his toy store 【36】 , and next to it placed a copy of the cartoon from the newspaper.

24、comes fashionable in China. The DINK couples are usually regarded as those who have higher educations and 【31】 careers with higher incomes. The increase in DINK families has shattered the Chinese traditional idea of the family and 【32】 typical. A survey conducted recently in Beijing by a market surv

25、ey company 【33】 that about 33 percent of the 1,300 surveyed families in Beijing said they have 【34】 plans to have children. It is estimated there about 600,000 DINK families in large cities like Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, Shenzhen and Chongqing. Why they choose such a lifestyle is concluded in 【35】

26、 reasons. Some are showing great worry for the rapid growth of population; some are indulged in building a more well-off family; some are showing sharp 【36】 to get themselves free from the obligation of raising children. 【37】 , most people still believe it is necessary to bear a child to keep the fa

27、mily line on. As an old Chinese saying goes: There are three aspects in failing to be a filial son and the 【38】 serious one is to have no heir for the family. So, childless couples will suffer discrimination 【39】 family members and neighbors. But it is clear that the new tide of ideas has come, whic

28、h suggests young people 【40】 to choose their own way of life. They are instilling modern ideas into traditional families and society. In the modernization process, personal choices will be highly respected. （分数：-1.00）A.stableB.availableC.achievableD.liableA.had becomeB.may becomeC.becameD.becomesA.d

30、ans spoke very critically of the Industrial Revolution. They 【B1】 that in the long run industrialization greatly raised the standard of living for the 【B2】 man. But they insisted that its 【B3】 results during the period from 1740 to 1840 were widespread poverty and misery for the 【B4】 of the English

31、population. 【B5】 contrast, they saw in the preceding hundred years from 1640 to 1740, when England was still a 【B6】 agricultural country, a period of great abundance and prosperity. This view, 【B7】 . is generally thought to be wrong. Specialists 【B8】 history and economics, have 【B9】 two things: that

32、 the period from 1640 to 1740 was 【B10】 by great poverty, and that industrialization certainly did not worsen and may have actually improved the conditions for the majority of the populace. （分数：-1.00）A.admittedB.believedC.claimedD.predictedA.plainB.averageC.meanD.normalA.momentaryB.promptC.instantD.

34、s source of discomfort for their fellows. Medical authorities express their 【B1】 about the effect of smoking on the health not only 【B2】 those who smoke but also of those who do not. In fact, nonsmokers who must involuntarily inhale the air polluted by the tobacco smoke may 【B3】 more than the smoker

35、s themselves. As you are doubtless aware, a considerable number of our students have 【B4】 an effort to 【B5】 the university to ban smoking in the classrooms. I believe they are entirely right in their aim. 【B6】 .I would hope that it is possible to achieve this by 【B7】 on the smokers to use good judgm

36、ent and show concern for others rather than 【B8】 regulation. Smoking is prohibited by city laws in theaters and in halls used for showing films as well as in laboratories 【B9】 there may be a fire hazard. Elsewhere, it is up to your good sense. I am therefore asking you to maintain “No Smoking“ in th

37、e auditoriums and classrooms. This will prove that you have to keep nonsmokers health and well-being 【B10】 . which is very important to a large number of our students. （分数：-1.00）A.concernB.troubleC.interestD.displeasureA.toB.aboutC.withD.ofA.endureB.sufferC.undergoD.put up withA.joinedB.directedC.jo

39、 commentators were able to be effective on television. Some of the difficulties they experienced when were trying to 【B1】 themselves to the new medium were technical. When working on radio, for example, they had become 【B2】 to seeing on behalf of the listener. This 【B3】 of seeing for others means th

40、at the commentator has to be very good at talking. Above all, he has to be able to 【B4】 a continuous sequence of visual images which 【B5】 meaning to the sounds which the listener hears. In the 【B6】 of television, however, the commentator sees everything with the viewer. His role, therefore, is compl

41、etely different. He is there to make 【B7】 that the viewer does not miss some point of interest, to help him focus on particular things, and to 【B8】 the images on the television screen. Unlike his radio colleague, he must know the 【B9】 of silence and how to use it at those moments 【B10】 the pictures

In speaking, the choice of words is 【B1】 the utmost importance. Proper selection will eliminate one source of 【B2】 breakdown in the communica

44、tion cycle. Too often, careless use of words 【B3】 a meeting of the minds of the speaker and listener. The words used by the speaker may 【B4】 unfavorable reactions in the listener 【B5】 interfere with his comprehension; hence, the transmission-reception system breaks down. 【B6】 , inaccurate or indefin

45、ite words may make 【B7】 difficult for the listener to understand the 【B8】 which is being transmitted to him. The speaker who does not have specific words in his working vocabulary may be 【B9】 to explain or describe in a 【B10】 that can be understood by his listeners.（分数：-1.00）A.ofB.atC.forD.onA.inacc

47、Recruiting(招募)the right candidate to fill a vacancy can be a difficult and costly task. 【31】 the wrong person could be an expensive mistake which could cause personnel problems for the whole department. And, as every HR (Human Resource) manager knows, it is much more difficult to get rid of someone

48、than it is to 【32】 them. The HR managers first decision is 【33】 to recruit internal applicants or advertise the vacancy outside the company. 【34】 applicants are easy to recruit by memo, e-mail, or newsletter. Furthermore, they are easy to assess and know the company well. 【35】 , they rarely bring fr

49、esh ideas to a position. Moreover, a rejected internal candidate might become unhappy and leave the company. Recruiting outside the company means either advertising the vacancy directly or 【36】 an employment agency. If the company decides to advertise the vacancy directly, it has to decide where to place the 【37】 . Traditionally this has meant newspapers and professional journals but now the Internet is also very popular. The decision normally depends on the vacancy. Companies advertise blue-collar or clerical jobs in local newspaper
