A hero has a story of adventure to tell and community who will listen. But a hew floes beyond mere fam

19、e.Heroes serve powers or principles larger than themselves. Like high-voltage transformers, heroes take the energy of higher powers and step it down so that it can be used by ordinary people.The hero lives a life worthy of imitation. Those who imitate a genuine, they experience life with new depth,

20、enthusiasm, and meaning. A sure test for would-be heroes is what or whom do they serve? What are they willing to live and die for? The answer or evidence suggests they serve only their own fame, they may be famous persons but not heroes. Madonna and Michael Jackson are famous, but who would claim th

21、at their fans find life more abundant?Heroes are catalysts (催化剂) for change. They have a vision from the mountaintop. They have the skill and the charm to move the masses. They create new possibilities. Without Gandhi, India might still be part of the British Empire. Without Rosa Parks and Martin Lu

22、ther King, Jr. , we might still have segregated (隔离的) buses, restaurants, and parks: It may be possible for largescale change to occur without leaders with magnetic personalities, but the pace of change would be slow, the vision uncertain, and the committee meetings endless.（分数：5.00）(1).Although her

28、8, 000 students, todays traditional- age college freshmen are “more materialistic and less altruistic (利他主义的) “than at any time in the 17 years of the poll.Not surprising in these hard times, the students major objective “is to be financially well off. Less important than ever is developing a meanin

29、gful philosophy of life. It follows then that today the most popular course is not literature or history but accounting“.Interest in teaching, social service and the “altruistic“ fields is at a low. on the other hand, enrollment in business programs, engineering and computer science is way up.Thats

31、tion has accumulated an incredible amount of knowledge in fields far removed flora our own and that we are better for ear understanding of these other contributions-be they scientific or artistic. It is equally true that, in studying the diverse wisdom of others, we learn how to think. More importan

32、t, perhaps, education teaches us to see the connections between things, as well as to see beyond our immediate needs.Weekly we mad of unions who went on strike for higher wages, only to drive their employer out of business. No company; no job. How shortsighted in the long run !But the most important

33、 argument for a broad education is that in studying the accumulated wisdom of the ages, we improve our moral sense. I saw a cartoon recently which shows a group of businessmen looking puzzled as they sit around a conference table; one of them is talking on the intercom (对讲机): “Miss Baxter,“ he says,

34、 “could you please send in someone who can distinguish fight from wrong?“From the long-term point of view, thats what education really ought to be about.（分数：5.00）(1).According to the authors observation, college students _ .（分数：1.00）A.have never been so materialistic as todayB.have never been so int

35、erested in the artsC.have never been so financially well off as todayD.have never attached so much importance to mural sense(2).The students criteria for selecting majors today have much to do with _ .（分数：1.00）A.the influences of their instructorsB.the financial goals they seek in lifeC.their own in

38、improve connections among peopleD.regulate the behavior of modem people(5).Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?（分数：1.00）A.Businessmen absorbed in their career are narrow-minded.B.Managers often find it hard to tell right from wrong.C.People engaged in technical jobs le

39、ad a more rewarding life.D.Career seekers should not loons on immediate interests only.New technology links the world as never before. Our planet has shrunk. Its new a “global village“ where countries are only seconds away by fax or phone or satellite link. And, of course, our ability to benefit fro

40、m this high-tech communications equipment is greatly enhanced by foreign language skills.Deeply involved with this new technology is a breed of modem businesspeople who have a growing respect for the economic value of doing business abroad. In modem markets, success overseas often helps support dome

41、stic business efforts.Overseas assignments are becoming increasingly important to advancement within executive ranks. The executive stationed in another country no longer need fear being “out of sight and out of mind“. He or she can be sure that the overseas effort is central to the companys plan fo

43、 are becoming more and prevalent(普遍的).Thanks to a variety of relatively inexpensive communications devices with business applications, even small businesses in the United States are able to get into international markets.English is still the international language of business. But there is an ever-g

44、rowing need for people who can speak another language.

45、pportunity to fast-forward certain negotiations, and can have the cultural insight to know when it is better to move more slowly.
