根据短文内容,从下框的A~F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项.项中有一项为多余项.

A. Be well-organised.
B. Close with a Q & A.
C. Don"t be contradictory.
D. Bring it to a specific end
E. Speak slowly and pause.
F. Drop unnecessary words
     Speaking to a group can be difficult, but listening to a bad speech is truly a tiresome task-especially
when the speaker is confusing. Don"t want to confuse your audience? Follow these suggestions:
1.       
     When it comes to understanding new information, the human brain needs a little time. First, we hear the words; then, we compare the new information to what we already know. If the two are different, we need to pause and think. But abreathless speaker never stops to let us think about what he or she is saying and
risks confusing us. Slow it
2.      
     Sometimes we all start a sentence one way and then switch directions, which is very difficult to follow. When you the audience confuse your listeners with opposing information, you leave the audience
wondering what part of the information is right and what part they should remember. Instead of relying and keeping correcting yourself, work to get the facts clear and straight.
3.        
     Jumpng from point to point as it comes to your mind puts the onus (责任)on your listeners to make up
for your lack of organisation. And it"s confusing for them to listen, reorganise, and figure out what you"re
saying all at once. But going smoothly from one point to the next helps them understand information more
easily. You can arrange things from beginning to end, small to large, top to bottom or by some other order. Just be sure to organise.
4.     
     Repeated use of um, ah, like, you know and some other useless noises can drive an audience crazy. It makes the speaker sound uncertain and unprepared, and it can leave listeners so annoyed that they can"t
pay attention. Recently I attended a speech that was marked by so many ums that audience members were rolling their eyes. Was anybody grasping the intended message? Um, probably not.
5.      
     Many speakers finish up their speeches with question-and-answer (Q & A) sessions, but some let the Q & A go on without a clear end. The audience is often left confused about whether the meeting is over
and when they can get up and leave. Do your listeners a favour by setting a time limit on questions, and
close your speech with a specific signal-even if it"s something simple like, "If you have any more questions, you know where to reach me."
       Or even more to the point, conclude your speech with "Thanks for your time. "

阅读理解。     Last August, Joe and Mary Mahoney began looking at colleges for their 17-year-old daughter,
Maureen. With a check list of criteriain hand, the Dallas family looked around the country visiting half
a dozen schools. They sought a university that offered the teenager"s intended major, one located near a
large city, and a campus where their daughter would be safe.      
     "The safety issue is a big one," says Joe Mahoney, who quickly discovered he wasn"t alone in his
worries. On campus tours other parents voiced similar concerns, and the same question was always asked: What about crime? But when college officials always gave the same answer, "That"s not a problem here. " Mahoney began to feel uneasy.      
     "No crime whatsoever?" comments Mahoney today. "I just don"t buy it. "Nor should he; in 1999 the
US Department of Education had reports of nearly 400,000 serious crimes on or around our campuses. " Parents need to understand that times have changed since they went to college," says David Nichols,
author of Creatinga Safe Campus. "Campus crime mirrors the rest of the nation. "    
     But getting accurate information isn"t easy. Colleges must report crime statistics (统计数字) by law, but some hold back for fear of bad publicity, leaving the honest ones looking dangerous. "The truth may not
always be obvious, "warns S. Daniel Carter of Security on Campus, Inc. , the nation"s leading campus
safety watchdoggroup.    
     To help concerned parents, Carter promised to visit campuses and talk to experts around the country
to find out major crime issues and effective solutions.1. The Mahoneys visited quite a few colleges last August______.    A. to express the opinions of many parents

B. mirror the rest of the nation    
C. hide the truth of campus crime    
D. have too many watchdog groups 3. The underlined word" buy" in the third paragraph means    A. mind

                           Spiritual Intelligence Quotient
      Our spiritual intelligence quotient (精神智商), or SQ, helps
us understand ourselves, and live a fuller, happier life.
      While we"re all born with SQ, most of us don"t even realize that
we have it. Fortunately, you don"t have to sign up for classes to learn
how to improve your SQ. Here are some simple steps that can lead
you to a new level of understanding.
      Sit Quietly. The process of developing spiritual intelligence begins
with solitude(独处) and silence. To tune into yourS,you
have to turn down the volume(强度) in your busy,noisy and complicated
life and force yourself to do nothing at all. In the car, instead of reading
or doing something else, use the time to think. At work,shut the door to
your office between meetings, take a few breaths and let them out very,
very slowly. Enjoy the stillness in your home after the kids are finally in bed.
     Step Outside. For many people, nature sets their spirits free.
Go outside to watch a beautiful sunset. If you are walking with your
dog,take the time to admire flowers in bloom; follow the flight of
birds;watch clouds floating overhead.
     Ask Questions of Yourself. Ask open-ended questions, such as
"What am I feeling? What are my choices?"or"Where am I heading?
" But don"t expect an answer to arrive through"some supernatural forms
or e-mails. "Rarely do I get an immediate answer to my
question,"says Reverend Joan Carter, "I never considered a problem
from a different perspective (角度) before. "
     Trust Your Spirit. While most of us rely on our gut feeling (直
觉)to realize danger,spiritual intelligence pushes us towards some
action that will lead to a greater good.

1. The passage is mainly about ___.  A. what your SQ is and in what way it can benefit your life
B. what your SQ is and in what way it can be improved
C. the relationship between your SQ and your life
D. the advantages and disadvantages of SQ2. The underlined phrase"tune into your spirit" in the third paragraph probably means"______".    A. get your spirit relaxed
B. keep up your spirit
C. keep seated quietly
D. change your spirit3. The author mentiuns the example of Reverend Joan Carter to show that_______.  A. there are no immediate answers to your questions
B. e-mails can"t keep working out problems

阅读理解。     Most people think of racing when they see greyhounds(灰狗)
and believe they need lots of exercise. They can actually be quite
lazy! Greyhounds are good at fast races but not long-distance run-
ning. They do need regular exercise but they like to run for a short
burst and then get back on the bed or a comfortable seat. Another
misunderstanding is that greyhounds must be aggressive (好斗的)
because they are big in size. In fact greyhounds love people and are
gentle with children.
     Greyhounds can live for 12~14 years but usually only race for
two or three years, and after that they make great pets. They don"t
need a lot of space,don"t make a lot of noise,and don"t eat a lot for
their size.
      Normally, greyhounds can be as tall as 90cm. There is, however,
a small-sized greyhound, which stands only 33cm. Greyhounds
come in a variety of colors. Grey and yellowish-brown are the most
common. Others include black, white, blue, red and brown or a mix
of these.
      Greyhounds have smooth body coats ,low body fat and are very
healthy. Because they"re slim (苗条的)they don"t have the leg
problems like other dogs with the same height. But they do feel the
cold ,especially since they would much rather be at home in bed
than walking around outside. 1. The text is written mainly ________.     A. to tell people how to raise greyhounds
B. to let people know more about greyhounds
C. to explain why greyhounds are aggressive
D. to describe greyhounds of different colors2. It can be inferred that greyhounds _______.   A. love big dog houses
B. like staying in bed all day
C. make the best guard dogs
D. need some exercise outdoors3. Why does the author say that greyhounds.make great pets7    A. They are big in size.
B. They live a very long life.
C. They can run races for some time.
D. They are quiet and easy to look after.
4. If you keep a pet greyhound,it is important _______.  A. to keep it slim
B. to keep it warm
C. to take special care of its legs
D. to take it to animal doctors regularly
