  China is the biggest market in the world, and many countries such as Germany, the USA, the UK and Russia do a lot of business in China. Let’s have a look at some important tips to help you be successful when dealing with these nationalities,                                          

    First, you must be punctual(準(zhǔn)時(shí)的) with Germans. Even 5 minutes late makes a bad impression. Being punctual is also very important in the USA. In the UK, it’s important to be punctual for business meetings, but nobody expects you to be on time for a social event. Half past seven really means a quarter to eight, or even eight o’clock! With Russians, you should always be on time, though it is not unusual for them to be one or even two hours late!

    It is best to dress formally and wear dark colours when you meet people from all the four countries. In Russia, designer clothes are very common.. Don’t be surprised if you go to an office in the UK on a Friday and find everyone wearing jeans. Many companies have "dress down Friday", when people wear casual (隨便的) clothes.

    In Germany, first names are only used by family members and close friends, so be prepared to use titles and last names. In the USA you will usually be invited to use first names almost immediately. The British are quite informal and using first names in business is more and more common, especially among younger people. In Russia, however, nobody uses first names, so use titles and last names.

    In conversation, the British and the Americans value humour, and both like to talk about sport. The weather is also a good topic of conversation with the British and the Americans, but avoid talking about politics. In Russia, say positive (積極的)things about their country, but avoid making complaints（抱怨）. The Germans, however, prefer to get straight down to business!

   So, use these tips, and you will be on your way to a successful international business career!

Which color should you NOT wear when meeting a person from the USA?

A. Dark blue.      B. Gray.         C. Black.       D. White.

All of the following statements are true EXCEPT ________.

    A. you can say something funny when you talk to an American

    B. you can use his first name when you talk to an Englishman     

C. you must be on time when you meet people from each of the four countries

    D. people wear whatever they like on Friday in some companies in the UK

When you talk to a Russian, you can ________.

    A. complain about something  

B. say something negative about his country     

C. say something good about his country 

D. point out some disadvantages in politics

The tips in this passage are probably given to people from ______.

A. China        B. the USA      C. Germany      D. the UK

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2011屆江蘇省泰州中學(xué)高三上學(xué)期9月質(zhì)量檢測(cè)英語(yǔ)卷 題型：閱讀理解

In all one’s lifetime it is oneself that one spends the most time being with or dealing with. But it is exactly oneself that one has the least understanding of.
When you are going upwards in life you tend to overestimate yourself. It seems that everything you seek for is within your reach. When you are going downhill you tend to underestimate yourself, mistaking difficulties for your own incompetence.
To get a thorough understanding of oneself is to gain a correct view of oneself-aware of both one’s strengths and shortages. You may look forward hopefully to the future but be sure not to expect too much, for ideals can never be fully realized. You may be courageous to meet challenges but it should be clear to you where to direct your efforts. That’s to say so long as you have a perfect knowledge of yourself there won’t be difficulties you can’t overcome.
To get a thorough understanding of oneself needs self-appreciation. Whether you think you are a towering tree or a blade of grass, a high mountain or a small stone, you represent a state of nature that has its own value. If you earnestly admire yourself you’ll have a real sense of self-appreciation, which will give you confidence. As soon as you gain full confidence in yourself, you’ll be enabled to fight and overcome any adversity.
To get a thorough understanding of oneself also requires doing oneself a favor when it’s needed. In time of sadness, do yourself a favor by sharing it with your friends so as to change a gloomy mood into a cheerful one; in time of tiredness, do yourself a favor by getting a good sleep. As you are aware, what a person physically has is but a human body that’s vulnerable when exposed to the elements. So if you fall ill, it’s up to you to take a good care of yourself.
In a word, to get a thorough understanding of oneself is to get a full control of one’s life. Then one will find one’s life full of color and flavor.
【小題1】 What is described in Paragraph 2 is to show that           .

A．a(chǎn) person is easy to estimate himself too high when succeeding
B．it is difficult for one to have a perfect knowledge of oneself
C．you should keep up high spirits whatever difficulties you meet
D．it is essential that a person get a thorough understanding of himself
【小題2】 Remember not to expect too much of yourself when looking forward to the future because         .
A．your shortages might stop you succeeding
B．ideals can never be turned into realities
C．you are likely to lack enough courage
D．you haven’t understood yourself quite well
【小題3】Having a real sense of self-appreciation can enable one         .
A．to realize one’s shortagesB．not to be too proud
C．to gain enough self-confidenceD．not to go downhill
【小題4】If this passage is divided into three parts, the second part should consist of        .
A．Paragraph 2 and Paragraph 3B．Paragraph 2 to Paragraph 5
C．Paragraph 3 to Paragraph 5D．Paragraph 4 and Paragraph 5
