第三部分:閱讀理解(共20小題,每小題2分,滿分40分)
閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項（A、B、C和D）中,選出最佳選項。
A
A lot of management training each year for Circle K Corporation, a national chain of convenience stores. Among the topics we address in our course is the retention（保護力） of quality employees-a real challenge to managers when you consider the pay scale（標準）in the service industry. During these discussions, I ask the participants（參加者）, “What has caused you to stay long enough to become a manager?” Some time back a new manager took the question and slowly, with her voice almost breaking, said, “It was a ＄19 baseball glove.”
Cynthia told the group that she originally took a Circle K clerk job as an interim（臨時的） position while she looked for something better. On her second or third day behind the counter, she received a phone call from her nine-year-old son, Jessie. He needed a baseball glove for Little League. She explained that as a single mother, money was very tight, and her first check would have to go for paying bills. Perhaps she could buy his baseball glove with her second or third check. When Cynthia arrived for work the next morning, Patricia, the store manager, asked her to come to the small room in the back of the store that served as an office. Cynthia wondered if she had done something wrong or left some part of her job incomplete from the day before. She was concerned and confused.
Patricia handed her a box. “I overheard you talking to your son yesterday,” she said, “and I know that it is hard to explain things to kids. This is a baseball glove for Jessie because he may not understand how important he is, even though you have to pay bills before you can buy gloves. You know we can’t pay good people like you as much as we would like to; but we do care, and I want you to know you are important to us.”
The thoughtfulness, empathy and love of this convenience store manager demonstrates vividly that people remember more how much an employer cares than how much the employer pays. An important lesson for the price of a Little League baseball glove.
56．Among many of the problems in the service industry, what is talked about in this passage, is___
A．how to ensure his employees’ high pay
B．how to attract more customers
C．how to look carefully after the employees
D．how to keep the good employees from leaving
57．Although a new manager, Cynthia would do her job well in keeping quality employees because she________.
A．had mastered all the courses for the manager
B．had already formed good relationship with the employees
C．know the way how to deal with her employees
D．had her own personal experience
58．This passage shows us that to run a business well it is necessary for managers to let their employees know________
A．how much they can get for their job.
B．what good positions they can get later
C．they are very necessary to the business  
D．they are nice as well as useful
59.The story told in this passage tells us that employees care about____________   
A．only how large a pay they can get
B．love from the managing people rather than only money
C．if their children could be properly taken care of
D．what position they can be offered

The most common complaint about cellphones is that people talk on them to the annoyance of people around them. But more damaging may be the cellphone’s interruption of our thoughts.
We have already entered a golden age of little white lies about our cellphones, and this is in generally a healthy, protective development. “I didn’t hear it ring” or “I didn’t realize my phone had shut off” are among the lies we tell to give ourselves space where we’re beyond reach.
The concept of being unreachable is not new – we have “Do Not Disturb” signs on the doors of hotel rooms. So why must we feel guilty when it comes to cellphones? Why must we apologize if we decide to shut off the phone for a while?
The problem is that we come from a long-established tradition of difficulty with distance communication. Until the recent mass use of cellphones, it was easy to communicate with someone next to us or a few feet away, but difficult with someone across town, the country or the globe. We came to take it for granted.
But cellphones make long-distance communication common, and endanger our time by ourselves. Now time alone, or a conversation with someone next to us which cannot be interrupted by a phone, is something to be cherished. Even cellphone devotees, myself usually included, can’t help at times wanting to throw their phones away, or curse this invention.
But we don’t and won’t, and there really is no need. That we have the right to take back our private time is a general social recognition.
In other words, we don’t have to pay too much attention to the rings of our own phones. Given the ease of making and receiving cellphone calls, if we don’t talk to the caller right now, we surely will shortly later.
A cellphone call deserves no more importance than a word from the person next to us. Though the call on my cellphone may be the one-in-a-million from Steven Spielberg–who has finally read my novel and wants to make it his next movie. But most likely it is not, and I’m better off, thinking about the idea I just had for a new story, or the slice of pizza I’ll eat for lunch.

【小題1】.
What does the writer think about people telling “white lies” about their cellphones?

A．It is a way to show that you don’t like the caller.
B．It is natural to tell lies about small things.
C．It is basically a good way to protect one’s privacy.
D．We should feel guilty when we can’t tell the truth.
【小題2】.
What is the meaning of the underlined word “devotees” in Paragraph 5?
A．people who enjoy something. B．people who are bothered.
C．people who hate something.D．people who are interrupted.
【小題3】.
. According to the author, what is the most annoying problem caused by cellphones?
A．People are always thinking of the cellphone rings so that they fail to notice anything else.
B．Cellphones interrupt people’s private time.
C．People feel guilty when they are not able to answer their cellphones.
D．With cellphones it is no longer possible to be unreachable.
【小題4】.
. What does the last paragraph suggest?
A．A person who calls us from afar deserves more of our attention.
B．Steven Spielberg once called the author to talk about the author’s novel.
C．You should always finish your lunch before you answer a call on the cellphone.
D．Never let cellphones disturb your life too much.
