    Making an apology is not the same as making amends. Sometimes we apologize just because it’s the easiest thing to do. What’s actually important is to identify where we go wrong, take full responsibility for our mistakes and , if possible, try to make up for them.
    A recent case involving Hewlett-Packed, the US computer giant, shows the importance of presenting a sincere apology. The Chinese consumers who had bought notebook computers of certain models, which have been put on Chinese market since 2007, suffered a massive flash screen failures and overheating problems. Through investigation, Chinese AQSIQ (国家质检总局) identified these HP computers had quality problems and HP admitted this. HP made a proposal that they would extend the warranty (保修) period of such computers, but this could not satisfied the consumers. What they needed was a thorough description of the truth. HP has “sincerely” apologized. But the consumers remain angry, and say that only a product recall — as HP has done in the past — will prove that the apology is sincere.
    Another apology that fell flat on its face was that of Thierry Henry, the famous French footballer. His deliberate handball in November 2009 created the goal which knocked Ireland out of the 2010 World Cup. The incident caused great anger in the football world, and eventually Henry issued an apology. Two days later, he wrote, “I’m not the referee…but if I hurt someone I’m sorry.” Better late than never, perhaps, but even then he passed the blame onto the referee!
    Such high-profile cases, which attract a lot of publicity often under the spotlight, but similar incidents occur in our everyday lives. Stress caused by schoolwork and tiredness can sometimes result in outbursts of anger against friends and family. Have you ever lost your temper for minor reasons? After calming down, most people are quick to realize their mistake and apologize. But it’s just as important to identify what caused the error in the first place and take action to ensure it doesn’t happen again.
    No one should hold a negative attitude to making a sincere apology. Empty words are easy to say, but they are as useless as they sound. A real show of remorse（痛悔;自责）demands hard work and commitment to put error right. 
    【小题1】What does the author intend to tell us in the case of HP?

    A．A true apology needs sincere actions.
    B．HP should recall all the faulty computers.
    C．Good quality makes a good company.
    D．A company should apologize and pay for their mistakes.
    【小题2】 According to the author, when we do anything wrong we firstly _________.
    A．make an apology face to face honestly
    B．admit we were wrong and try to make the wrong right
    C．take the responsibility for apologizing to others
    D．choose the easiest thing to do
    【小题3】We can infer from the case of Thierry Henry that _________ .
    A．it’s never too late to say “I’m sorry.”
    B．writing an apology is not a good idea
    C．Henry didn’t identify his fault.
    D．the football fans were mad with Henry.
    【小题4】Which of the following can best explain the word “commitment” in the last paragraph?
    A．Decision.B．Promise.C．Agreement.D．Responsibility.
    【小题5】 What’s the best title of this passage?
    A．What really puts things right
    B．Don’t apologize easily
    C．Making an apology — no one is out of exception
    D．How to judge an apology — sincere enough?

I wanted to forgive him, but now I have no chance to tell him.” she said.
    Ms Lo, who was a human resource manager in APB, left the company after the accident. She is now working in a photo studio.

    An experiment was carried out at British school into the performance of new pupils. At the start of the year, the pupils were each given a rating, ranging from “excellent prospect” to “unlikely to do well”. These were totally untrue ratings and did not reflect how well the pupils had previously performed. However, these ratings were given to the teachers. At the end of the year, the experimenters compared the pupils’ performance with the ratings. Despite their real abilities, there was an astonishingly high connection between performance and ratings. It seems that people perform as well as we expect them to.
    The Self-fulfilling Effect is also known as the Pygmalion Effect. This comes from an old Greek story. The story was also the basis of George Bernard Shaw’s play “Pygmalion”, later turned into the musical “My Fair Lady”. In Shaw’s play, Professor Henry Higgins claims he can turn a Cockney flower girl, Eliza Doolittle into a duchess. But, as Eliza herself points out to Higgins’ friend Pickering, it isn’t what she learns or does that determines whether she will become a duchess, but how she’s treated.
    The implication (含义) of the Pygmalion Effect for leaders and managers is massive. It means that the performance of your team depends less on them than it does on you. The performance you get from people is no more or less than what you expect, which means you must always expect the best. As Goethe said, “Treat a man as he is and he will remain as he is. Treat a man as he can and should be and he will become as he can and should be.”
    【小题1】The underlined word in Paragraph 1 can be replaced by “_________”.

    A．programB．regulationC．correctionD．classification
    【小题2】What’s the passage mainly about?
    A．A new scientific experiment.
    B．The Self-fulfilling Effect.
    C．Shaw’s play “Pygmalion”.
    D．An improved teaching method.
    【小题3】The experiment was made in order to _________.
    A．try out a new teaching method
    B．pick out the most excellent pupils
    C．learn if expectations affect performance
    D．give each pupil a proper rating
    【小题4】What made Eliza change into a duchess according to Eliza herself?
    A．Strict training from Higgins.
    B．Her own strong will and hard work.
    C．The proper way she was regarded.
    D．Warm encouragement from Pickering.
    【小题5】According to the Pygmalion Effect, if you want a man to finish a hard task in a short time, you should say, “_________”.
    A．I’m sure you can make itB．I will help you any time
    C．It is as easy as pieD．It doesn’t matter if you fail
