Getting your children to study can be a little like getting them to eat their vegetables.

Section B
Directions: Read the following passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
After a few days in Pittsburgh, I was happy to leave the city and enjoy the harmony of the countryside. I left my hotel early and drove south to the Bear Run Nature Reserve. As I arrived, I was immediately impressed by the charming Laurel Highlands and other natural sights. However, I was not there to enjoy beauty: I was there to see a house, one of the most famous houses in the world.
The house I had come to see is Fallingwater. It is called Fallingwater because it was built over a waterfall. As most houses are built on solid ground, this house’s location instantly made it famous. When you approach the house, surrounded by forest, streams and mountains, it looks as though the clear blue water were flowing through it, since the stream rushes out from under the ground floor of the building.
The house was designed by the architect, Frank Lloyd Wright, for businessman Edgar Kaufman and his family. As I toured the house, I learnt that it took Wright three years to build the place. The Kaufman family had asked him to design them a home in the middle of the countryside where they could enjoy the sights and sounds of the natural world. Though they lived in the city, they loved to come to the mountains to spend some time in the peace and quiet of nature, where they could go camping in the forest and play in the stream with their children. In fact, they loved the water so much that they asked Wright to design a house that would let them view the beautiful waterfall every day.
Many people have suggested that this incredible building is a work of art, and I would agree that this beautiful house is a masterpiece of design. It also demonstrates how important it is to live side-by-side with nature and to respect it rather than try to dominate it. 
65. ______ impressed the author first as he arrived at the location of Fallingwater.
A. The beauty of nature                                    B. The sight of the waterfall
C. The designer of the house                              D. The preservation of the environment
66. Fallingwater quickly became famous because ______.
A. a famous architect designed it                        B. it was built over waterfall
C. blue water flowed through it                         D. it was situated in a nature reserve
67. The Kaufman family had the house built there in order to ______.
A. move to the countryside                           B. live in a masterpiece
C. enjoy the harmony of nature                         D. create a new scenic spot
68. What is the best title of the passage?
A. A Talent Designer and His Masterpiece          B. Human and Nature
C. A House over Waterfall                                D. Life in Fallingwater

76.
Have you ever wondered what it might be like to live under the sea? Imagine the feeling of freedom you would have swimming through the clear, blue water deep beneath the waves, admiring the different types of corals, unusual plants and the creatures that call the sea bed home. Passing turtles are swimming above you, while bright and colorful groups of fish are travelling alongside you through the depths. All of this is possible on one of our scuba(水中呼吸器)-diving holidays!

 


 
77. International Diving Tours can prepare you for the experience of a lifetime. On our scuba-diving holidays, you will have the opportunity to swim in some of the most beautiful locations in the world, where you can explore underwater caves and coral reefs, and witness some of the strangest and most wonderful creatures on the planet. Not only will you have one of the most exciting times of your life, but you will also come back from your trip feeling calm and relaxed.

 


 
78. We offer several different holiday options for you to choose from. Our sales people can plan and organize the best trip for you, all for the best price! Options include the chance to explore some of the most famous ancient shipwrecks hidden beneath the ocean, or, if you prefer the natural world, we also offer tours of the world-famous Great Barrier Reef in Australia. We even offer the chance to swim with dolphins or venture into a shark cage, where behind the safety of a metal barrier you can watch these fierce beasts go about their daily life. 

 


 
79. All the necessary equipment for your underwater adventure is provided, from wetsuits designed to fit all body shapes, to the latest scuba masks to help you see when you are exploring the world beneath the sea. For longer dives, we provide tanks of oxygen that can let you dive for up to four hours. All of our equipment is checked regularly to ensure that you remain safe at all times.

 


 
80. Our instructors are among the best in the world. They will show you how to swim in your scuba equipment and how to communicate with hand signals under water, which is vital for deep-sea diving. They will also make sure you understand how to return to the surface safely, since rising too quickly can cause a number of health problems. Most importantly, however, they will make sure you have fun.

Section D
Directions: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.
In today’s world, the most successful companies are the ones who understand how important it is to make contacts around the world. However, doing business in different countries is very rarely simple. It is important to be aware of the local customs and traditions of the people you are dealing with, which is the best way to impress your hosts.
One example that comes to mind is of a German company that recently tried to gain a new contract in South Korea. The German visitors arrived at the Korean company’s office early in the morning and spent the whole day in long meetings. By the evening, the Germans were so tired that they politely declined the Korean’s invitation to go out for dinner and drinks, since they wanted to return to their hotel and get some rest. The Germans did not understand that in South Korea business talks often continue into the evening. The Germans only came to realize that they offended their hosts after they had lost the contract.  
In Europe or the USA, business is rarely discussed into the evening. However, it is important to be on time for a meeting. If you are late, your hosts may think you do not care. In fact, it is better to arrive at least ten minutes before the meeting starts. This way, you can show how keen you are to do business with them, and you will also have time to talk with your hosts before you sit down to discuss business.
However, in many countries meetings may not start on time. There are a number of reasons for this, such as transport difficulties due to poor roads, unusual weather and the cost of cars. Sometimes the time of day is also important. In South America and many countries in southern Europe, people have a short sleep for a couple of hours after lunch. Therefore, if you try to arrange a meeting for the early afternoon, you may find that not many people will attend, or that you hosts will be in a bad mood.
(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TWELVE WORDS.)
81. In Korea, what confuses many western businessmen is _______.
_____________________________________________________________________________
82. In the West, what does a businessman do if he wants to show a keen attitude to the business in
a negotiation?
_____________________________________________________________________________
83. Where is it common for people to have a nap after lunch?
_____________________________________________________________________________
84. According to the passage, it can be concluded that _______ helps a company make good
contacts in different countries.
_____________________________________________________________________________
