    根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

       1   . So when you want to do business in France, you have to get to know French culture, to make marketing plans, and to run your business by local laws.

       2   The French take great pride in their language, so anyone who does not speak it may run the risk of being disrespected by his French colleagues or business partners. Also, another reason why learning French is important is that it is a great way to show every possible French business partner that you care and respect their country’s culture and language.

    The first thing that you should do when meeting someone new is to shake his hand firmly and always look the person in the eye. In social meetings with friends, kissing is common.

    Use first names only after being invited to.    3   The French will sometimes introduce themselves using their surname first, followed by their first name.

    Dress well. The French draw information about people based on their appearance. Your business clothing is a sign of your success and social status. Always try to be tasteful and stylish. Women are advised to dress simply but elegantly. Wearing make-up is practised widely by business women. K$s*5u

    The French are passionate about food, so lunches are common in doing business in France, which usually consist of an appetizer, main meal with wine, cheese, dessert and coffee, and normally take up to two hours.   4    

    Do not begin eating until the host says, “bon appetite”. Pass dishes to the left, keep hands above the table and try to eat everything on the plate.    5   This may suggest that you find the food tasteless. If eating in a restaurant, the person who invites always pays.

    A．Maybe you have heard the expression “When in Rome, do as the Romans do”

    B．This is a time for relationship building.

    C．Remember to be as polite as possible.

    D．Language should be the focus of anyone planning to do business in France.

    E. Be careful with adding salt, pepper or sauces to your food.

    F. Use Monsieur or Madame before the surname.

    G. Make an appointment with your business partner in advance.

    Why does most of the world travel on the right side today? Theories differ, but there’s no doubt that Napoleon was a major influence. The French had used the right since at least the late 18th century. Some say that before the French Revolution, noblemen drove their carriages on the left, forcing the peasants to the right. Regardless of the origin, Napoleon brought right-hand traffic to the nations he conquered, including Russia, Switzerland and Germany. Hitler, in turn, ordered right-hand traffic in Czechoslovakia and Austria in the 1930s. Nations that escaped right-hand control, like Great Britain, followed their left-hand tradition.

    The U.S. has not always been a nation of right-hand rivers; earlier in its history, carriage and horse traffic traveled on the left, as it did in England. But by the late 1700s, people driving large wagons pulled by several pairs of horses began promoting a shift to the right. A driver would sit on the rear (后面的) left horse in order to wave his whip with his right hand; to see opposite traffic clearly, they traveled on the right.

    One of the final moves to firmly standardize traffic directions in the U.S. occurred in the 20th century, when Henry Ford decided to mass-produce his cars with controls on the left (one reason, stated in 1908; the convenience for passengers exiting directly onto the edge, especially… if there is a lady to be considered). Once these rules were set, many countries eventually adjusted to the right-hand standard, including Canada in the 1920s, Sweden in 1967 and Burma in 1970. The U.K. and former colonies such as Australia and India are among the western world’s few remaining holdouts. Several Asian countries, including Japan, use the left as well — thought many places use both right-hand-drive and left-hand-drive cars.

    1.Why did people in Switzerland travel on the right?

    A．They had used the right-hand since the 18th century.

    B．Rich people enjoyed driving their carriages on the right.

    C．Napoleon introduced the right-hand traffic to this country.

    D．Hitler ordered them to go to against their left-hand tradition.

    2.Of all the countries below, the one that travels on the right is ______.

    A．Austria

    B．England

    C．Japan

    D．Australia

    3.Henry Ford produced cars with controls on the left _______.

    A．in order to change traffic directions in the U.S.

    B．so that passengers could get off conveniently

    C．because rules at that time weren’t perfect

    D．though many countries were strongly against that

    4.According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

    A．Before the French Revolution, all the French people used the right.

    B．People in Britain and the U.S. travel on the same side nowadays.

    C．The Burmese began to travel on the right in 1970.

    D．All the Asian nations use the left at present.

    5.What would be the best title for this passage?

    A．Who made the great contributions to the shift of traffic directions?

    B．How cars have become a popular means of transportation?

    C．How Henry Ford produced his cars with controls on the left?

    D．Why don’t people all drive on the same side of the road?

    A recent Living Social survey showed that Americans may live up to their poor reputation while travelling abroad. But what’s more surprising is that many of those surveyed self-identified themselves as ‘ugly’ Americans and the world’s worst travelers.

    Those in the U.S. ranked themselves as the worst travellers by a shocking 20 per cent, followed by 15 per cent saying the Chinese were the most substandard tourists.

    Americans topped the list as being the worst-behaved travelers in a survey of 5,600 respondents, 4,000 of whom were Americans. Other respondents were in Australia, Canada, Ireland and the United Kingdom. But even American respondents considered their compatriots(同胞) as the worst travelers from a list of 16 nationalities.

    Canadians and Australians also put Americans in the No. 1 spot. Irish respondents pointed to U.K. residents and U.K. respondents gave Germans the nod. On the other hand, 37% of Americans opted for "none of the above" in answer to the worst-tourists question, displaying more tolerance and open-mindedness than the other nationalities.

    Other survey questions had respondents admitting pilfering from hotels. Four in ten U.S. survey-takers said they’d stolen something – mostly towels (28%) and bathrobes (8%). Other popular pinched items included pillows, remote controls, Bibles and sheets.

    Not surprising is that Americans have less time off from work than other nationalities. Americans reported getting 16 days off, compared with 28 days for the Irish, 27 days for Australians, 23 days for U.K. workers; and 21 days for Canadians.

    In the travel mishaps department, the most common travel disaster reported by Americans was lost luggage on an airline (21%)； bad weather (21%)； and getting very lost (16%).

    As for places Americans most want to see, Disney World and Las Vegas made the top 10, but they weren't at the top of the heap. And New York didn't make the cut.

    1.What percentage of American respondents is in the survey?

    A．20 %

    B．15%

    C．71%

    D．37%

    2.The underlined word “pilfering” in Para. 5 most probably means ________.

    A．taking

    B．bringing

    C．stealing

    D．borrowing.

    3.According to the survey, what kind of things are most taken away by Americans?

    A．towels and pillows

    B．bathrobes and remote controls.

    C．towels and Bibles

    D．bathrobes and towels.

    4.What’s the best title of this passage?

    A．Chinese were announced as the world’s worst travellers.

    B．The global worst travellers were announced.

    C．Disney World is the best destination to Americans.

    D．European travellers were the best in the world

             Over the past century, all kinds of unfairness and discrimination(歧视) have been made illegal. But one popular form continues to exist, that is alphabetism (字母排序法). This, for those as yet unaware of such a disadvantage, refers to discrimination against those whose surnames (姓氏) begin with a letter in the lower half of the alphabet.

             It has long been known that the cars of a taxi firm called AAAA have a big advantage over Zodiac cars when customers look through their phone directories. Less well known is the advantage that Adam Abbot has in life over Zoe Zysman. English names are fairly spread between the halves of the alphabet. Yet a quite large number of top people have surnames beginning with letters between A and K.

             Thus the American presidents and vice-presidents have surnames starting with B and C separately and 26 of those before George Bush took office (including his father) had surnames in the first half of the alphabet against just 16 in the second half. Even more striking, six of the seven heads of government of the G7 rich countries are alphabetically advantaged (Berlusconi, Blair, Bush, Chirac, Chretien and Koizumi ). The world’s three top central bankers (Greenspan, Duisenberg and Hayami) are all close to the top of the alphabet, even if one of them really uses Japanese characters. The same case are the world’s five richest men (Gates, Buffet and so on).

             Can this merely happen by chance? At the start of the first year in primary school, teachers seat pupils alphabetically from the front, to make it easier to remember their names. So shortsighted Zysman gets stuck in the back row, and is seldom asked the improving questions by those teachers. At that time the alphabetically disadvantaged may think they have had a lucky escape. Yet the result may be worse qualifications, because they get less attention, as well as less confidence in speaking publicly.

             The unfairness continues. At university graduation parties, the ABCs proudly get their awards first. However, by the time they reach the Zysmans most people are a little tired. Lists of job interviews and conference speakers and attendees all tend to be drawn up alphabetically, and their readers lose interest as they plough through them.

    1. What does the author intend to show with AAAA cars and Zodiac cars?

             A. An example of competition of two kinds of cars.         B. Some advantages of AAAA cars in the taxi firm.

             C. An example of unfairness caused by alphabetism.     D. Some disadvantages of Zodiac cars in the taxi firm.

    2. What can we infer from the first three paragraphs?

             A. The alphabet is to blame for the failure of Zoe Zysman.

             B. In both East and West, names are important to success.

             C. Customers often pay a lot of attention to companies’ names.

             D. The discrimination in alphabetism can be found in many areas.

    3. The fourth paragraph suggests that         .

             A. alphabetically disadvantaged students often escape from class

             B. teachers should pay equal attention to all their students

             C. questions are often put to the more intelligent students

             D. students should be seated according to their eyesight

    4. Which of the following is true according to the passage?

             A. VIPs in the western world gain a great deal from alphabetism.

             B. People with surnames beginning with N to Z are often ill – treated.

             C. Putting things alphabetically may lead to unintentional unfairness.

             D. The movement to get rid of alphabetism still has a long way to go.
