【题目】Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.

A consumercomplaint or customer complaint isan expression of dissatisfaction on a consumer’s behalf to a responsible party. It can also be described in a positive sense as a report from a consumer providing documentation about problems with a product or service.

So what are the common reasons for customer complaints? The most common complaints about retail(零售) storesfall into several aspects. First, they have to circle the filled parking lot endlessly, which is a waste of time and a test for their patience. They also can’t stand clutteredshelves, over-loaded racks, out-of-stock items and long check-out lines. Worst of all, sometimes some salespeople are rude, turning their mood into a bad one.

In fact, some modern business consultants urge businesses to view customer complaints as a gift but not a trouble.Some retailers, however,ignore complaints or deal with them dishonestly, which can cause a chain of events like bad reputation, leave theirbusiness with fewer and fewer customers. The resulting “snowball effect” can be disastrous to retailers.In the most severe cases, it can even cause companies to shut down.

Increasing competition is forcing companies to take more effective measures to satisfycustomers and better their customer service.During peak shopping hours, some moonlighting(业余兼职的) local police have been employed as parking attendants bysome retailers to solve the parking problems. Some hire flag wavers to direct customers to parking spaces that are empty. This guidance can avoid confrontation between those eyeing the same parking space.Retailers can relieve the headache by redesigning store layouts, pre-stocking sales items, hiring the cashiers with much experience, and having sales representatives on hand to answer questions.Most importantly, salespeople should be trained to deal with angry customerswith politeness.Try their best to resolve the problem if they can.

Quickly and properly solving customer complaints can help retailers smooth over issues and their business can grow and prosper.

【解析】试题分析:这是结构是否清晰的文章。全文为绕顾客抱怨的主题,展开论述分析。第一段是解释顾客抱怨的定义;第二段是分析顾客抱怨的原因;第三段是讲顾客抱怨的影响;第四段提出解决方案。

1A consumer complaint / Customer complaint。考察对文章主旨的理解。本文第一句“A consumercomplaint or customer complaint isan expression of dissatisfaction on a consumer’s behalf to a responsible party.”点出全文中心:顾客抱怨。结合本文下面几段的内容,故填A consumer complaint / Customer complaint

2Reasons。该空对应的细节,在文中第二段。在此之前“So what are the common reasons for customer complaints?”所以,顾客抱怨的共同原因是什么?,由此可知,作者失聪顾客抱怨的原因角度来展开分析的。故填Reasons

3Measures / Solution该空对应右侧的细节在文中第四段得到体现。文中第四段的中心句:“Increasing competition is forcing companies to take more effective measures to satisfycustomers and better their customer service.”日益增加的竞争正逼迫公司不得不去采取更多的措施去使顾客满意,把顾客服务做得更好。可知文中第四段是在提出解决方案。故填“Measures / Solution”

4a consumer’s report。细节题。从文中第一段里“It can also be described in a positive sense as a report from a consumer providing documentation about problems with a product or service. ”它可以用积极的心态被描述成顾客提供的关于产品和服务的文件报告。故填a consumer’s report

5rude salespeople / salespeople’s rudeness 细节题。根据对应细节提示,可以找到原文第二段最后一句“Worst of all, sometimes some salespeople are rude, turning their mood into a bad one.”最糟糕的是,有时一些售货员是很粗鲁的,会使他们的情绪变得糟糕起来。故填rude salespeople / salespeople’s rudeness

6lack / short of customers / fewer customers细节题。从文中第三段第二句后半段“which can cause a chain of events like bad reputation,leave their business with fewer and fewer customers.”这将会引起一系列的事件,例如糟糕的声誉,导致他们的生意的顾客越来越少。故填lack / short of customers / fewer customers

7Employing local police / Employing moonlighting police细节题。从文中第四段第二句“During peak shopping hours, some moonlighting(业余兼职的) local police have been employed as parking attendants bysome retailers to solve the parking problems.”在购物高峰时段,一些兼职的当地治安人员将被一些商家雇佣作为停车员去解决停车问题。故填Employing local police / Employing moonlighting police

8empty parking spaces细节题。从文中第四段第三句“Some hire flag wavers to direct customers to parking spaces that are empty.“一些商家租用摇旗者去引导顾客去有空位的地方停车。故填empty parking spaces

【题目】 Roughly 8. 5 billion plastic straws are used in the United Kingdom each year, but as a new ban takes effect next April, that number will decrease to zero. One startup (初创企业) is hoping to capture the chance to make a kind of straws as an alternative by using an unlikely material: pasta (意大利面食).

“It has all the function of a plastic straw that everyone has been using,” says Maxim Gelmann, founder of Stroodles, the startup. The straws, made by an Italian company that also produces regular pasta, are the same shape and size as a standard plastic straw.

Unlike a paper straw, they don’t taste like wet paper; they don’t change the flavor of the drink. They last at least an hour, and longer in colder drinks. If you’re nursing a drink for hours and the pasta eventually softens, you can choose to eat it. The raw straw is also eatable, and Gelmann says that some people snack on them.

A handful of other pasta-straw startups also exist, though Stroodles is hoping to feature itself with a smoother, more plastic-like material and its branding.

It’s more expensive to make than a plastic straw, but at large volumes, it can compete with the cost of paper straws. Because of the coming ban, “No one really compares us with plastic anymore,” Gelmann says. “They compare us with paper straw prices, which makes my argument much easier and my expectation brighter.”

Other alternatives, like bamboo or stainless steel, are more expensive and a less elegant solution; some bars say that customers don’t trust the idea that stainless steel straws can be fully sanitized (消毒). Another option—a plastic-like eatable straw made from seaweed—may be more of a competitor.

1What’s the startup’s main purpose of producing the pasta straws?

A.To reduce the consumption of energy.

B.To take over the market.

C.To answer the call for the ban.

D.To compete with paper straws.

2What advantage do the pasta straws have compared with other straws?

A.They are cheaper.B.They can be used longer.

C.They can be treated as snacks.D.They are suitable for mass production.

3What attitude does Gelmann have towards the pasta straws’ future?

A.Controversial.B.Doubtful.

C.Cautious.D.Positive.

4What can be inferred from the text?

A.The government disagrees with Gelmann.

B.The startup will become a very big company.

C.The pasta straws face fierce competition.

D.The pasta straws can improve drinks’ flavor.

【题目】Computer technology has its own special words. One example is the word “mouse”. A computer mouse is not a small animal that lives in buildings or open fields. It is a small object that you move around on a flat surface in front of a computer. The mouse moves the pointer on the computer screen. Computer expert (专家) Douglas Engelbart developed the idea of the mouse in the early 1960s. It was called a mouse because it had a tail at one end. The tail was the wire (电线) that connected it to the computer.

Using a computer takes some training. People who are experts are sometimes called hackers. A hacker is usually a person who writes software programs in a special computer language. But the word “hacker” is also used to describe a person who tries to steal information from computer systems.

Another well known computer word is Google, spelled g-o-o-g-l-e. It is the name of a popular “search engine(引擎)”for the Internet. People use the search engine to find information about almost any subjects on the Internet. People who started the company named it Google because in mathematics, googol, spelled g-o-o-g-o-l, is an extremely large number. It is the number followed by one hundred zeros.

When you “Google” a subject, you can get a large amount of information about it. Some people like to Google their friends or themselves to see how many times their names appear on the Internet. If you Google someone, you might find that person’s name on a blog. A blog is the shortened name for a Weblog. A blog is a personal Web page. It may have stories, opinions , pictures and links(链接) to other Web sites. Some people add information to their blogs every day. People who have blogs are called bloggers.

Blogs are not the same as spam. Spam is unwanted sales messages sent to your electronic mailbox...

【1According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

A. A mouse didn’t have a wire at the beginning.

B. Hackers steal information from computer systems.

C. Hackers can only write special computer language.

D. A mouse attracts more people to play computer games.

【2The company was named Google mainly because __________.

A. this name was very interesting

B. there were many zeros in this name

C. it was very easy to remember this name

D. it stands for an extremely large number in mathematics

A. Google and Blog.

B. What’s Google.

C. Computer Technology.

D. Special Computer Words.

Patience is of great importance in our daily life. Once I waited a bus to come at a stop. 30 minutes past, but no bus came. Both sad and annoyed, I decided to walk on foot. But no sooner had I left when the bus arrived. I thought if I had waited for one more minute, I would have caught it. If I chose to take a next bus, I would have to wait for other 30 minutes. Only then do I realize my problem. Being impatient will possible waste all the effort that we have put it in. Now whenever I am close to lose my patience, I’ll think of the experiences.
