shoved a five dollar bill. “I don’t have change,” she said, “but here is an
extra five dollar bill. Use it to pay for your parking spot.” I was floored!

Knowing how to communicate well needs very personal attention between you and another human being. Is there a better way to learn how to communicate effectively? Yes, there is. Please follow the 3 basic steps below. 1. Relax and Breathe. Whether it's a business meeting or the first date, the first thing you must do in order to communicate is to relax. When you relax you are in control. You control your reactions and your reactions do not control you. Breathing is central to relaxation. Take a few deep breaths and your body will begin to be more at ease. This will help you apply what you already know about how to communicate well. 2. Think and you will be prepared. Have you ever heard the old saying, "think before you speak"? Well, it is true. By thinking ahead about how the conversation might flow, you will be better prepared, more at ease and more confident. 3. Follow the flow of the conversation. If you are uncomfortable, being silent will only make it worse and make the other person uncomfortable as well. So when all else fails, follow through with small talk until a common topic appears. A good way to keep a conversation going is to ask the other person questions. People love to talk about themselves and if you do this they will think very highly of you. Learning good communication skills is not something out of reach. If you make an effort, you will succeed. 1.Which of the following is the best title of the passage? A. Preparation and Conversation B. How to Communicate with Anyone You Meet C. Personal attention and Communication D. How to Keep Your Conversation Going 2.If you want to talk with others successfully, the most important thing you should do is . A. to follow the flow of the conversation. B. to take as many deep breaths as possible C. to make a good preparation for the conversation D. to keep calm and relax yourself fully 3.Why does relaxation play an important part in your good communication? A. Because it can help you put your communication skills that you know into use. B. Because it will help you organize good sentences for your communication. C. Because it can help you keep excited and react quickly in the communication. D. Because no one likes to communicate with a nervous person. 4. If you feel uncomfortable, you’d better . A. keep silence in order to give the chance of speaking to others B. talk small things until you find a topic you both like C. speak freely so as to run across the topic you like D. ask questions which you are interested in 5.

TAIBEI － Increasing numbers of Taiwanese students are joining the island’s “China rush”, seeking education on the Chinese mainland． According to official Chinese figures, the number of Taiwanese students admitted into college and postgraduate（研究生）programs on the mainland totaled 461 in 1996, 928 in 1997 and 839 in 1998．Although no latest official numbers were available,” Netbig.com said this number had risen between 30 to 50 percent annually in the past two years with well over 1000 entering mainland campuses last year. The Internet site, based in the Chinese city of Shenzhen, provides education service and information on Chinese mainland college and universities. “Many Taiwanese believe a Chinese education giving more knowledge about the people and culture in the mainland will increase their chances in the Chinese job market,” Netbig.com vice-president Ingrid Huang said．“I believe it will give me hands-on experience in the business field in the Chinese mainland and a better understanding of the Chinese mainland people,” said Lydia Chang, a 19-year-old majoring in journalism at Shih Shin University. Chang plans to go on to get a master’s degree in business administration in Shanghai, which she says offers the best environment for such studies. A journalism graduate student, surnamed Lin, at the National Taiwan University said he would like to study law on the Chinese mainland since “there will be better career prospects now that more Taiwanese companies are going there”. “They hope the children could build up connections which could later become useful in their business operations,” said Yang Ching-yao, professor of the Chinese mainland studies. A Netbig.com survey showed the campuses favored by Taiwan students included Beijing, Qinghua and Renmin universities in Beijing, and Jinan and Zhongshan universities in Guangzhou. The most popular studies were law, business and Chinese medicine. At present, Chinese Taibei doesn’t recognize diplomas earned in the Chinese mainland nor help with any inquiries about studying there. But recognizing the trend, education authorities are giving a final form to a policy accepting certificates（证书）from selected universities. 1.One Taiwanese students study on the Chinese mainland because ___________. A．Taiwan will reunite with the mainland sooner or later B．the fees asked for are lower than those of Taiwan C．there are many famous universities for them to choose D．what they have learned on the mainland will bring them a bright future 2.Some business executives were sending their children to study in the Chinese mainland so that their children _______. A. could receive better education B. could do well in the business operations C. could learn more about the policy there D. could make more friends there 3.The underlined word “it” in the third paragraph refers to __________. A．Netbig.com B．the Chinese job market C．a Chinese education on the mainland D．the university 4.The author wrote the article to tell us ______________. A. the number of Taiwanese students going to universities on the mainland had been increasing year after year B. more Taiwanese students are studying on the mainland C. education on the mainland is more attractive compared with that of Taiwan D. Taiwan and the mainland should cooperate with each other in every field. 5.Which is true according to the passage? A．Chinese Taibei recognizes diplomas earned on the Chinese mainland B．The number of Taiwanese students going to study on the mainland will surely be increasing in the next few years. C．Education of Taiwan is far behind the mainland. D．Chinese Taibei doesn’t help with any inquiries about Taiwanese studying in the mainland

Parents are often amazed at how fast their child grows and develops. New research has determined that the ability to quantify may develop much sooner than most parents realize. Kristy Vanmarle, professor of the University of Missouri, has determined that contrary to what previous studies have shown, infants（婴儿）are able to quantify substances（物质）—like sand or water—as early as 10 months. As long as the difference between the two substances is large enough, infants will choose the larger amount, especially when it comes to food. With the assistance of her team researchers, Vanmarle tested the quantifying skills of babies by presenting them with two cups: one containing a small amount of food, and one containing a larger amount. Consistently, the babies chose the larger amount. “Several studies throughout the last 15 years have shown that infants are very good at telling how many objects they see; however, infants don’t seem to count things like water or sand,” Vanmarle said. “What we’re saying is that they can quantify substances; it’s just much harder. The infants can see how much food goes into each cup and compare that in their memories. They decide which amount is larger, and they almost always select the larger one.” “This information further refutes（驳斥）the long-held idea that babies know nothing of the world,” Vanmarle said. “Since psychologists have begun studying infants with sensitive measures, we’ve discovered a lot of early abilities. I think for parents, it should be exciting to know that there’s somebody in there that has some fundamental and basic knowledge of the world, and that knowledge is guiding their development,” Vanmarle said. In the future, Vanmarle says this kind of study could be linked to a child’s progress in math-related skills, although programs marketed to increase those abilities, such as “Baby Einstein,” still have mixed reviews when it comes to academic study. 1. The quantifying ability refers to the ability to . A. choose between different substances B. describe the quantity of something C. get much knowledge of the world D. obtain math-related skills 2. What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 4? A. The process of doing research. B. The final choice of infants. C. The scientific findings. D. The observation of infants’ behavior. 3. Babies choose the larger amount of food . A. through their natural abilities B. with the help of parents C. on personal preference D. by saying numbers 4.We can learn from the text that . A. some parents don’t care about their kids B. scholars disagree on baby-training programs C. little research has been done on infants D. people used to think the world is known to babies 5.What’s the best title of the text? A. Unique Quantifying Methods B. Amazing Baby-training Ideas C. Early Human Abilities D. Breakthrough in Baby Studies
