A. The power and habit of thinking 

B. The value of previous education

C. The correctness in using mother tongue 

D. The development of an educated man 

E. The possession of gratitude 

F. Refined and natural manners 

 
76. 

   The first characteristic of an educated man is the precision of the use of the native language. When one hears English well spoken, with pure diction, correct pronunciation, and an almost unconscious choice of the right word, he recognizes it at once. How much easier he finds it to imitate English of the other sort.

 
77.

    When manners are artificial and forced, no matter what their form, they are bad manners. When, however, they are the natural expression of fixed habits of thought and action, and when they reveal a refined and cultivated nature, they are good manners. There are certain things that gentlemen do not do, and they do not do them simply because they are bad manners.

 
78.

   Human beings for the most part live wholly on the surface or far beyond the present moment and that part of the future that is quickly to follow it. They do not read those works of prose and poetry which have become classic because they reveal power and habit of reflection and induce that power and habit in others. When one reflects long enough to ask the question how? He is on the way to knowing something about science.

 
79.

    An educated man continues to grow and develop from birth to his dying day. His interests expand, his contacts multiply, his knowledge increases, and his reflection becomes deeper and wider. It would appear to be true that not many human beings, even those who have had a school and college education, continue to grow after they are twenty-four or twenty-five years of age. By that time it is usual to settle down to life on a level of more or less contented intellectual interest and activity. The whole present-day movement for adult education is a systematic and definite attempt to keep human beings growing long after they have left school and college, and therefore, to help educate them.

 
80.

    The more visionary dreamer, however charming or however wise, lacks something that an education requires. The power to do may be exercised in any one of a thousand ways, but when it clearly shows itself, that is evidence that the period of discipline of study and of companionship with parents and teachers has not been in vain.

A. Leadership

C. Open Communication

D. Respect to All Team Members

E. Measuring Progress against Goals

F. Common Goals with Challenging Target

Team Building Means More than Throwing a Few People Together

     “Teamworking” is found everywhere within just about every organization .you can’t get away   from “teams” that are supposed to be able to create something that is greater than the sum of its  parts. Or so the theory goes.

      There are five measures that need to be taken before you can get the most  out of a team:

 1­­­_________

      There must be a clear reason for the team to exist. And all the members should realized the value and significance of what they are going to do. What they are hoping to achieve should be something achievable but at the same time tough and inspiring enough to attract the members and keep their motivation alive. What is more ,they should also be well prepared for the possible difficulties they may come across in the process.

2._________

      Team members must be able to express their opinions freely without fear of being criticized  and  they must have the feeling that their suggestions will be taken seriously . This is an important point because the team may need to resolve some complex or thorny issues. For example ,it may discuss a sensitive topic .Should they keep their conclusion within the team or share it with other employees. This is an issue in itself that all the members should agree on frank discussion is required.

3._____________ D. Respect to All Team Members

It is easy to think that a junior team member may have less to contribute than more experienced ones. This is not only demoralizing or discouraging, it also makes no sense ---people that have nothing to contribute should not have been selected for the team in the first place. Since they have become members of your team, you need to make sure that each of them has an opportunity to add his or her thoughts to discussions.

4.____________

Disagreements are natural and, in fact debate and discussion should be encouraged. A team made up only of "yes men" can make disastrous decisions that few people honestly agreed with in the first place. Consequently, there should be rules on how lengthy disagreements should be handled. For example, team meetings may not be the most appropriate place for a discussion that involves only two people, so "under-the-table" method may be effective.

5.___________ A. Leadership

   Most high-performing teams are well organized. A good organizer should be able to play to individuals' strengths and help them overcome their weaknesses. It should be someone who can act  as a promoter and a constant reminder of what the team needs to achieve. He must ,above all, be skilled in sharing responsibility and setting tasks to others coaching them to achieve tasks, and providing constructive feedback on how the tasks went.

   Team building isn't as simple as just throwing a few people together. It requires, much more, but motivating people is most essential. Successful team working is not marked by how much progress the team makes toward its goals, but by how confidently each of its members completes his or her assigned tasks with a sense of achievement and pride.

A. The boys must have had more fun than the girls.

C .She had finished her work in the kitchen

D. She thought it was a great day to play outside

    C. childhood friendship means so much to the writer

Chair Miller and his crew picked up a new B-24 at California’s March Field on Christmas Eve, 1943, and prepared to fly to England. But they decided to have “one more hamburger” before going out for the distant land of fish and chips.

As the airmen sat in a local restaurant, a beautiful young waitress approached. “I understand you’re going to England,” she said to Miller. Then she told him that her fiancé, an aviation gunner like Miller, was stationed there.

The woman said she was waiting for him to provide an address so she could send him a picture of herself. “You might run into him,” she told Miller hopefully. “Would you take it?”

Miller knew it was unlikely he’d ever see her fiancé. But he didn’t want to disappoint the woman. He took the picture and placed it in his wallet. Later he realized he hadn’t even asked the man’s name. Then he was on to Europe and the war.

On August 9, 1944, Miller’s plane was shot down, and he was forced to parachute to an island off the coast of Holland. Captured by the Nazis, he spent the next nine months as a prisoner of war.

It was on Christmas Eve that someone told him a 19-year-old American prisoner down the hall was badly depressed and possibly suicidal（有自殺傾向）. Miller decided to pay the man a visit.

To break the ice, he mentioned the POW band he’s started, with the help of the Red Gross. The young man, he learned, played the saxophone. The two began to exchange details about their families. Was he married, the kid asked. “Yeah, since 1938,” responded Miller.

“Have you got her picture?” the soldier asked. So Miller reached for his wallet, and pulled out a photograph of his wife.

“She’s beautiful!” the young man responded. Then he noticed that a second picture had fallen out, and an expression of wonder crossed his face. “Where did you get that?” Miller told the story of the waitress at the California hamburger stand.

“That’s my fiancée,” the surprised man said. Miller kept his promise to the beautiful girl back home and turned the picture over to its rightful owner.

1．The reasonable connection between Miller and the young man is that ________.

       A．they were in love with the same waitress

       B．they played with the same POW band

       C．they were kept prisoner in the same camp

       D．they both served as gunners in a new B-24

2．The underlined words “To break the ice” would probably mean “______”.

       A．to keep warm in icy surroundings

       B．to start a conversation after a silence

       C．to get rid of the ice around the house

       D．to escape from the freezing place

3．It can be inferred from the passage that ______.

       A．Miller did not ask about the young man’s name on purpose

       B．the young man killed himself on account of missing his fiancée

       C．Miller joined in the war against the Nazis and was captured

       D．the young man got the photo of his fiancée by accident
