Choose the word or phrase ( A, B
, C or D) that best fits each space in the
following passage.
As more women in the
United States move up the professional ladder, more are finding it necessary to
make business trips alone. Since this is new for many, some tips are certainly
in order. If you are married, it is a good idea to encourage your husband and
children 5 to learn to cook few simple meals while you are way. They will be
much happier and probably they will enjoy the experience. If you will be eating
alone a good deal, choose good restaurants. In the end, they will be much
better for your digestion. You may also find it useful to call the restaurant
in advance and state that you will be
eating alone. You will probably get better service and almost certainly a
better table. Finally, and most importantly, anticipate your travel needs as a
businesswoman; this starts with lightweight luggage which you can easily manage
even when fully packed. Take a folding case inside your suitcase; it will come
in extremely handy 15 for dirty clothes, as well as for business documents and
papers you no longer need on the trip. And make sure you have a briefcase so
that you can keep currently required papers separate. Obviously, experience
helps, but you make things easier on yourself from the first by careful
planning, so that right from the start you really 20 can have a good trip!
1. Which of the following can
be concluded from the passage?
A．A greater percentage of women are advancing professionally in the U.S. than
before.
B．Professional men refuse to go with women on business trips.
C．Each year there are more women tourists in the United States.
D．Businesswomen become successful by showing a willingness to travel alone.
2. In this passage, what advice does the author
have for married women ?
A. Stay home and
take care of your family
B. Encourage your
husband and kids to be happy and have fun while you are away
C. Help your family
learn to prepare food for themselves
D. Have your whole
family take gourment cooking classes together
3. Why are better restautants especially
preferable for frequent travellers ?
A. The food is
usually better for your health B. The tables are better
C. You can call
ahead for reservations D. You will not
have to eat alone
4．Why is lightweight luggage
important for the traveling businesswomen?
A．It provides space for dirty clothes. B．It
allows for mobility
C．It can double as a briefcase. D．It is usually big enough to carry all business documents.
5. Which of the following is closest meaning to

Choose the word or phrase ( A, B , C or D) that best fits
each space in the following passage.
One custom that gives
insight into people’s history and values is the way they greet one another.
There is a wide range of greetings around the world. These range from the
common handshake to other strange rituals found in some countries. Let’s take a
look at how the simple action of greeting someone differs greatly from place to
place.
In the United States and Canada, for example, a simple handshake or nod is the norm. The handshake has an interesting origin: it started long ago as a way of showing people that you weren’t carrying a weapon. Shaking the person’s right hand while looking him or her in the eye is the usual method. Handshakes are also common in other parts of the world, including Britain and Russia. In Russia, males grasp other men’s hands very strongly during the handshake. Handshakes are also how most people in New Zealand greet each other. However, the native Maori people of that country display more physical contact: they press their noses together in a sign of trust and closeness.
In other countries, such as France and Belgium, hugging and kissing are more common when two people meet. In those cultures, people kiss each other on the cheeks. The number of times varies depending on the particular country. In Saudi Arabia, men might hug and kiss each other (but not a woman) on the cheek. Men will also shake hands with other men there. In some Eastern countries, including Korea and Japan, bowing is the traditional greeting. In Japan, the deeper the bow, the deeper the respect shown. The strangest custom, though, is likely in Tibet. People there opt to stick out their tongue to greet others.

However, the native Maori people of that country display more physical contact: they press their noses together in a sign of trust and closeness.
In other countries, such as France and Belgium, hugging and kissing are more common when two people meet. In those cultures, people kiss each other on the cheeks. The number of times varies depending on the particular country. In Saudi Arabia, men might hug and kiss each other (but not a woman) on the cheek. Men will also shake hands with other men there. In some Eastern countries, including Korea and Japan, bowing is the traditional greeting. In Japan, the deeper the bow, the deeper the respect shown. The strangest custom, though, is likely in Tibet. People there opt to stick out their tongue to greet others.
