【題目】As jewelry designers，my sister Jodie and I are always traveling for work．We need to go to a lot of shows，so we can’t pack lightly and usually bring about four suitcases filled with our work．
Most of our stuff is made from heavy materials and metals．So part of the routine for us when we fly is getting stopped by security．Our jewelry sets off the alarms，and we’ve become accustomed to arriving early to go through private screenings．Most of the time，it’s not troublesome.
However，on our recent trip to a Paris trade show，we were stopped at security and asked to empty our bags. One of the agents walked over to another agent and they started whispering to each other．Both gentlemen came back，and one of them then told us that it seemed that we were carrying a very dangerous object.
My sister and I just said，“Huh?”O(jiān)f course，we were a little concerned，thinking that maybe someone put something dangerous in one of our bags when we weren’t looking．
One of the agents then started to unpack our bags．I kept asking what he was 1ooking for and then the object in question finally appeared．It was our Cosima necklace．It's a piece of jewelry，with large，metal triangular spikes．
My sister and I 1ooked at each other and breathed a huge sigh of relief．We started laughing and explained to the two male agents that it was just a necklace from our collection．not a weapon of mass destruction．They thought we were lying，and one agent kept repeating that he believed it was a weapon.
I tried to explain that we were jewelry designers going to a trade show，and this was simply a piece from our collection．But the agents didn’t buy it．Then a few women guards came over to assist．One of the women guards was holding an earring up to her ear and another was trying on a ring．Apparently，they liked our stuff．
It was only at this point that the male guards gave up．And I think they also got tired of listening to a bunch of women talk about jewelry．They let us through．
We took the names of the women agents and sent them a piece of jewelry when we got back to say thanks．
【1】The writer and her sister were stopped by the agents because ________.
A．their suitcases were too heavy
B．the agents wanted to play a joke on them
C．they were suspected to carry dangerous objects
D．the agents wanted to admire the jewelry inside the suitcases

A．doubtB．believeC．purchase D．understand
【3】The writer sent the women agents a piece of jewelry in order to ________.
A．persuade them to buy her jewelry later
B．get help from them next time
C．show them her talent in designing jewelry
D．show them her gratitude for their assistance
【4】According to this passage，which of the following statements is NOT true?
A．Someone put something dangerous in one of the writer’s bags.
B．The male agents didn’t believe the writer at first.
C．The female agents liked the jewelry.
D．The writer is always travelling on business.

試題分析：制作者和妹妹朱迪經常因為工作的原因而到處旅行。作為珠寶設計師，作者姐妹需要參加很多的展覽。因為需要帶很多的行李，姐妹倆有一次被擋在了安檢門外。
【1】C 細節(jié)理解題。根據第三段“one of them then told us that it seemed that we were carrying a very dangerous object.”可知，工作人員懷疑她們攜帶有危險物品，故選C。
【2】B 詞義猜測題。根據第七段“I tried to explain that we were jewelry designers going to a trade show, and this was simply a piece from our collection. But the agents didn’t buy it.”可知，作者盡力的向工作人員解釋，但工作人員不買賬，也就是說，工作人員不相信作者說的話，故選B。
【3】D 細節(jié)理解題。根據最后一段“sent them a piece of jewelry when we got back to say thanks”可知，作者寄給工作人員首飾是為了表示感謝，故選D。
【4】A 推理判斷題。根據第四段“maybe someone put something dangerous in one of our bags when we weren’t looking”和第五段“It’s a piece of jewelry, with large, metal triangular spikes.”可知，可疑物品是珠寶首飾，有人偷偷往箱子里放危險物品只是作者的猜測，故選A。
【學法指導】
利用上下文提供的情景和線索，進行合乎邏輯的綜合分析進而推測詞義，是閱讀過程中的一大關鍵，這也是近年來高考考查的熱點。最常見的就是利用上下文語境、常識和語法關系推斷詞義。1.抓住所需推斷詞匯前后的“mean”或系動詞或破折號等直接定義該詞的部分。2.抓住文章主旨與該段所表達的中心。特別對于議論文要牢記論點與論據的相互支撐關系。【2】B詞義猜測題。根據第七段“I tried to explain that we were jewelry designers going to a trade show, and this was simply a piece from our collection. But the agents didn’t buy it.”可知，作者盡力的向工作人員解釋，但工作人員不買賬，也就是說，工作人員不相信作者說的話，故選B。

【題目】Many Years ago three soldiers, hungry and tired of battle, came upon a small village. The villagers, suffering a bad harvest and the many years of war, quickly hid what little they had to eat and met the three in the village square, shaking their heads and sighing, “Well, we are starving.” The soldiers communicated with each other quietly and then the first soldier turned to the villagers. “Your poor fields have left you nothing to share, so we will share what little we have: the secret of making soup from stones.”
Naturally the villagers were intrigued and soon a fire was built to the villager’s greatest pot, and then the soldiers dropped in three smooth stones.
‘“Now this will be a fine soup,” said the second soldier, “but a handful of salt and some parsley (香芹) would make it wonderful!” Up jumped a villager, crying “What a piece of luck! I’ve just remembered where some has been left!”
And off she ran, returning with parsley. As the pot was boiling, the memory of the villagers improved: soon carrots, beef and cream had found their way into the great pot. They ate and danced and sang well into the night, thrilled about the feast and their new-found friends. In the morning the three soldiers awoke, finding all the villagers standing before them. At their feet lay a bag of the village’s best bread and cheese. “You have given us the greatest gift.” said an elder, “and we shall never forget.” The third soldier turned to the crowd, and said, “There is no sccret, but this is certain: people working together can accomplish great things.” At last the light dawned on villagers.

Customer service refers to the way that companies behave towards their customers. 【1】 However, many a time organizations don’t focus on customer relationship management, and that’s what makes customers angry, which is one of the reasons why companies lose their customers. 【2】
First of all, you need to realize the great value of the customers. It’s they who are the boss, and it’s because of them that you get your pay checks. So do take your customers seriously.
【3】You need to ask the customers the right kind of questions and think of the possible solutions which you can provide. Understand how they feel according to a particular situation, their body language, tone of voice and words they speak. Never make assumptions （臆斷）and think that you know what the customers want.
【4】 Treat customers as individuals and the best way to do that is using their first name and finding ways of praising them in a sincere way.
In addition, there are some other skills which will help you in serving your customers better.
