第二節(jié) （共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分）

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。

I was ten when I first sat with my grandmother behind the cashier(收銀臺) in her general store. ______71_______ I quickly learned the importance of treating customers politely and saying “thank you.”

At first I was paid in candy. ________72______ I worked every day after school, and during the summer and no weekends and holidays from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. My father helped me set up a bank account. ________73________

By the time I was 12, my grandmother thought I had done such a good job that she promoted me to selling cosmetics(化妝品). I developed the ability to look customers directly in the eye. Even though I was just a kid, women would ask me such things as “What color do you think I should wear?” I took a real interest in their questions and was able to translate what they wanted into makeup(化妝) ideas. ________74________

The job taught me a valuable lesson: to be a successful salesperson, you didn’t need to be a rocket scientist—you needed to be a great listener. ________75________ Except they are no longer women purchasing cosmetics from me; instead, they are kids who tell me which toys they would like to see designed and developed.

A.Later I received 50 cents an hour.

B.Before long, she let me sit there by myself.

C.I ended up selling a record amount of cosmetics.

D.Today I still carry that lesson with me: I listen to customers.

E.My grandma’s trust taught me how to handle responsibility.

F.Soon I found myself looking more beautiful than ever before.

Answer 1

  71---75   BAGCD  

解析:

【語篇解讀】本片是一篇記敘文。講述了“我”獨自賣貨的經(jīng)歷和掙錢的心得，從而得出一個非常有價值的經(jīng)驗：當一個傾聽者。

71. 根據(jù)文章第一句話“…first sat with my grandmother ….”于是不久以后“我”就獨自坐在收銀臺后面了。因此正確答案為B。

72. 根據(jù)前一句話“At first, I was paid in candy.”可知，剛開始“我”是以糖塊來獲得報酬的。于是后來過渡到每小時得50美分。因此正確答案為A。

73. 爸爸幫“我”建了一個賬戶，因此能看到錢不斷地增多比“我”買任何東西都感覺到有回報。因此正確答案為G。

74. 本段講述了“我”開始賣化妝品，因此最后我賣化妝品達到了一個記錄。因此正確答案為C。

75.上一句“You needed to be a great listener.”告訴大家“我”的工作心得就是當一個傾聽者。而下一句說現(xiàn)在“我”仍然謹記這個經(jīng)驗：當一個傾聽者。因此正確答案為D。
