Would you please listen? It’s a complaint we’ve all heard (though perhaps not listened to). The price paid for not listening can be high: from making a mess of a task to broken relationships. “Frustrated, devalued, and disrespected—that’s how people feel when they’re ‘heard’ but not ‘listened to’,” says Jennie Grau, president of communications training and coaching firm Taliaferro Grau Associates. Yet focusing attention and understanding—the qualities that make physically hearing different from actually listening—can be hard to develop.
Learn to truly understand others, and you’ll improve your personal and professional skill sets alike. Business is all about relationships, and being a better listener helps you establish more positive relationships, says Rockhurst University communications professor Laura Janusik.
The first step is to limit anything that draws your attention away. Give up multi-tasking, and focus on what the speaker’s saying. If the moment simply doesn’t allow you to pay full attention, set up an alternative time when you will be able to concentrate.
Next, stop interrupting. Always want to jump in before the other person finishes speaking? Control yourself like this: Press your fingers firmly, count to five, and re-evaluate whether it’s time to talk. Be aware of the subjects or words that influence your emotions—both positive and negative—and calm down before responding.
Finally, listen between the lines. If you hear only the words without paying attention to the speaker’s tone of voice, facial expression, and body language, you risk missing hidden meanings or important signals. Confirm you’ve “gotten” the message. Transform what others said into a few words of your own.
And when it’s your turn to speak, know you’ve provided a model for how you hope your words will be received.
63. What’s the difference between hearing and listening according to the passage? (No more than 14 words)
_________________________________________________________________________
64. What does the author mean by saying “l(fā)isten between the lines” in Paragraph 5? (No more than 8 words)

65. What’s the best title for the passage? (No more than 8 words)

An 18th-century statesman Edmund Burke once said, “All that is needed for the success of a misguided cause is that good people do nothing.” One such cause now seeks to end biomedical research because of the theory that animals have rights to decide whether to be used in research. Scientists need to respond forcefully to animal rights advocates, whose arguments are puzzling the public and threatening advances in health knowledge and care. Leaders of the animal rights movement attack biomedical research because it depends on public funding, and few people understand the process of health care research. Hearing false reports of cruelty to animals in research settings, many are puzzled that anyone would harm an animal on purpose.
For example, a grandmotherly woman setting up an animal rights booth at a recent street fair was giving out sheets that encouraged readers not to use anything that comes from or is tested in animals-no meat, no fur, no medicines. Asked what will happen when epidemics(傳染病) return, she said. “Don’t worry, scientists will find some way of using computers.” Such well-meaning people just don’t understand.
Scientists must communicate their message to the public in an understandable way-in human terms, not in the language of biology. We need to make clear the connection between animal research and a grandmother’s organ replacement, a father’s bypass operation, a baby’s vaccinations(接種疫苗), and even a pet’s shots. To those who know nothing about the animal research that was needed to produce these treatments, as well as new treatments and vaccines, animal research seems wasteful at best and cruel at worst.
Much can be done. Scientists could give middle school lessons and present their own research. They should be quick to respond to letters to the editor, in case animal rights misinformation goes unchallenged and gains a false appearance of truth. Research institutions could be opened to tours, to show that laboratory animals receive humane care. Finally, because there are a lot of patients, the health research community should actively recruit(招募) not only well-known personalities such as Stephen Cooper, who has made courageous statements about the value of animal research, but all who receive medical treatment. If good people do nothing, there is a real possibility that uninformed citizens will wipe out the precious of medical progress.
1. The purpose of the author beginning his article with Edmund Burke’s words is to _____.
A.call on scientists to take some actions
B.a(chǎn)rgue against the cause of animal rights
C.warn of the failure of biomedical research
D.show the success of the animal rights movement
2. In the second paragraph, the author took a grandmotherly woman as an example to show ____.
A. the way to prevent epidemics           B. the innocence of the woman
C. how strong the opposition was     D. how important the animal rights were
3. In the eyes of the author, misguided people are likely to think that using an animal in research
is ______.
A.cruel but necessary           B.just but unnecessary
C.meaningful and wasteful    D.inhuman and unacceptable
4. What can be inferred from the passage?
A.People care very little about returns of epidemics.
B.The public lacks knowledge of biomedical science.
C.Stephen Cooper is very seriously concerned about animal treatment.
D.Scientists should make efforts to develop new cures by means of hi-tech.
5. According to the passage, the author’s attitude toward biomedical research is ________.
A. Disinterested                B. Indifferent                C. Objective                 D. Supportive

   1  
The  most important 1essons I learned at college weren’t the ones my professors taught me.Instead,1 learned unpleasant truths about things like money,socializing,and self—sufficiency(自給自足)——usually the hard way.If I could go back and give advice to my
freshman self,this is what I’d say.
*Take the opportunity for a semester abroad.
If your college has a program to study for a semester or a year in another county, take
advantage of it.Yes,it will probably cost a little more,but you may never again have a chance to travel abroad for an extended period.There’S no better way to do that than to become completely involved in a new culture.
*  3 
This isn't high school anymore,So there’s no need tO join every club under the sun to try to impress somebody.Figure out what you’re interested in and then pursue it.Colleges have radio stations,political advocacy organizations,writers’groups,and so much more.They’re a great way to meet people with similar interests,as well as to broaden your horizons.
*Get a job,especially during the summer vacation.
  5 It doesn’t work that way.Particularly in this economic climate,getting a job is 1ess about what yod know,and more about who you know.The best way to meet the people who may one day hire you is to get a job while in school,maybe in summers.You can get in the door at a company you may truly want to work for after graduation,get some valuable work experience,and even get the course credit.  It’s a winning situation all around.
A.Apply for scholarships and grants(津貼).
B.What 1 wish I’d known about college.
C.Get involved with student organizations.
D.If your college lacks the group you’d like to join,go ahead and start it yourself.
E.Some college graduates expect to have their choice of job offers immediately after they graduate.   
F.If you’re interested in your major,you won’t have much trouble earning good grades in those courses.
G.College should be more than learning about facts and figures——it should be a chance to educate yourself about the world you live in.

Section C
Direction:Read the following text and choose the most suitable summary from A—F for each paragraph. There is one extra summary which you do not need.
A. Promotion by the press and media.
B. Foreign influences into British cuisine.
C. The variety of British cuisine.
D. The effect of history and climate.
E. Traditional meals for different times of the day.
F. International awards to British cuisine.
1 ______
They say a country’s cuisine(烹飪) is a reflection of its culture and national character. Therefore, the UK has always been a diverse country, since every region has its own traditional foods. For example, traditional Scottish cuisine is famous for its robust character: haggis, Aberdeen Angus beef, shortbread and whisky. Wales is well known for its lamb and leeks. Ireland is synonymous with Guinness, Irish whiskey and Irish stew.
2 ______
There are of course dishes common to the whole UK as well. Everyone (except vegetarians) likes a full English breakfast in the morning, followed by a Sunday roast for lunch, perhaps followed by fish and chips or a pork pie for dinner. For dessert, there are dozens of famous British cheeses to choose from.
3 ______
British cuisine has had a better international reputation for the last decade or so. Why is that?One reason is definitely that the wide range of ethnic groups in the UK has given British cuisine new ingredients, flavours, combinations and techniques. Curry, which is originally an Asian dish, is now officially the most popular food in the UK, whereas sandwiches used to be the most popular. With significant numbers of Polish people coming to the UK recently, Polish food shops can be found in almost every British city. Most cities have a Chinese quarter as well.
4 ______
Another reason for the improvement, however, is the large number of cookery programmes on British television. British people are more educated about food than they ever before. British chefs like Gordon Ramsay and Marco Pierre White are internationally famous and even have television shows in the USA.
5 ______
So what are the results?In 2009, British restaurants received more Michelin stars than in any other previous year. The Michelin Guide (first established in France) sets the international standard for restaurant cuisine. With so much good food to eat, perhaps it is not surprising the UK now has an obesity problem.

Dr.Sylvia Earle wants you to stop eating fish.It’s not because fish are endangered, though wild fish stocks in many oceans are very low.It’s not because they’re bad for you, though fish in many areas are exposed to poisonous substances in the water.It’s because they’re smart.
“Fish are sensitive, they have personalities,” says the marine biologist.For Earle, eating a fish would be like eating a dog or a cat.“I would never eat anyone I know personally.”
There’s a lot more to fish than meets the eye: they talk to each other, they like to be touched, and they engage in behavior that can seem very human.They can remember things and learn from experience.Earle and a growing number of animal rights activists see these as strong arguments against eating fish altogether.
The activists also point out that fish feel pain and fish suffer horribly on their way from the sea to the supermarket.“While it may seem obvious that fish are able to feel pain, like every other animal, some people think of fish as swimming vegetables,” says Dr.Lynne Sneddon.“Really, it’s kind of a moral question.Is the enjoyment you get from fishing (or eating fish) more important than the pain of the fish?”
Fishermen and (fried) fish lovers are doubtful.“I’ve never seen a smart fish,” says Marie Swaringen as she finishes off a plate of fish at a Seattle seafood restaurant.“If they were very smart,
they wouldn’t get caught.”
“For years, everyone’s been telling us to eat fish because it’s so good for us,” says another diner.“Now I’ve got to feel guilty while I’m eating my fish? What are they going to think of next? Don’t eat salad because cucumbers have feelings?”
64.Dr.Sylvia Earle discourage people from eating fish because _____________.
A.there are not that many wild fish in the ocean
B.fish actually are sensitive and have personalities
C.some ocean fish contain poisonous substances
D.fish are like dogs or cats that people know personally
65.We can infer from the passage that _____________.
A.a(chǎn)ll people don’t agree with the idea to stop eating fish
B.people will be persuaded not to eat fish in the future
C.stopping eating fish will lead to people’s not eating vegetables
D.we shouldn’t care too much about the feeling of fish
66.By saying “There’s a lot more to fish than meets the eye,” the writer means ____________.
A.there are far more fish than other animals in the world
B.there are more fish in the world than people can see
C.people can see more fish if they pay more attention
D.fish are not that simple as they appear to people’s eyes
67.What is the writer’s attitude towards people eating fish?
A.Neutral.    B.Indifferent.      C.Approving.      D.Opposed.
