Not only have we got 37 per cent of the market under Bill's leadership; we are increasing our share with each passing month.
  As you know, the company has moved Bill to northern California to work his sales magic in one of this company's most competitive(競爭的) areas. But we know that if anyone can do it, Bill Masters can, and I know you all join me in wishing him the best of luck in his new work.

If you want to teach your children how to say sorry, you must be good at saying it yourself, especially to your own children. But how you say it can be quite tricky.

  If you say to your children “I’m sorry I got angry with you, but …” what follows that “but” can render the apology ineffective: “I had a bad day” or “your noise was giving me a headache ” leaves the person who has been injured feeling that he should be apologizing for his bad behavior in expecting an apology.

  Another method by which people appear to apologize without actually doing so is to say “I’m sorry you’re upset”; this suggests that you are somehow at fault for allowing yourself to get upset by what the other person has done.

  Then there is the general, all covering apology, which avoids the necessity of identifying a specific act that was particularly hurtful or insulting, and which the person who is apologizing should promise never to do again. Saying “I’m useless as a parent” does not commit a person to any specific improvement.

  These pseudo-apologies are used by people who believe saying sorry shows weakness. Parents who wish to teach their children to apologize should see it as a sign of strength, and therefore not resort to these pseudo-apologies.

  But even when presented with examples of genuine contrition, children still need help to become aware of the complexities of saying sorry. A three-year-old might need help in understanding that other children feel pain just as he does, and that hitting a playmate over the head with a heavy toy requires an apology. A six-year-old might need reminding that spoiling other children’s expectations can require an apology. A 12-year-old might need to be shown that raiding the biscuit tin without asking permission is acceptable, but that borrowing a parent’s clothes without permission is not.

1.According to the author, saying “I’m sorry you’re upset” most probably means “_______”.

A.You have good reason to get upset

B.I’m aware you’re upset, but I’m not to blame

C.I apologize for hurting your feelings

D.I’m at fault for making you upset

2.We learn from the last paragraph that in teaching children to say sorry _______.

A.the complexities involved should be ignored

B.their ages should be taken into account

C.parents need to set them a good example

D.parents should be patient and tolerant

3.It can be inferred from the passage that apologizing properly is _______.

A.a(chǎn) social issue calling for immediate attention

B.not necessary among family members

C.a(chǎn) sign of social progress

D.not as simple as it seems

When did you last see a polar bear(北極熊)?On a trip to a zoo,perhaps?If you had attended a winter activity in New York a few years ago,you would have seen a whole polar bear club.These "Polar Bears" are people who meet frequently in the winter to swim in freezing cold water.That day,the air temperature was 3℃,and the water temperature was a little higher.The members of the Polar Bear Club at Coney Island,New York are usually about the age of 60.Members must satisfy two requirements.First,they must get along well with everyone else in the group;this is very important because there are so many different kinds of people in the club.Polar Bears must also agree to swim outdoors at least twice a month from November to February.

  Dcotors don't agree about the medical effects of cold-winter swimming.Some are worried about the dangers of a condition in which the body's temperature drops so low that finally the heart stops.Other doctors,however,point out that there is more danger of a heart attack during summer swimming because the difference between the air temperature and water temperature is much greater in summer than in winter.

  The Polar Bears themselves are satisfied with the benefits of cold-water swimming.They say that their favorite form of exercise is very good for the circulatory system(循環(huán)系統(tǒng))because it forces the blood to move fast to keep the body warm.Cold-water swimmers usually turn bright red after a few minutes in the water.A person who turns blue probably has a very poor circulatory system and should not try cold-water swimming.

  The main benefits of cold-water swimming are probably mental.The Polar Bears love to swim all year round;they find it fun and relaxing.As one 70-year-old woman says,"When I go into water,I pour my troubles into the ocean and let them float away."

72.The members of the Polar Bear Club must meet the following requirements except that_____.[來源:學(xué)+科+網(wǎng)]

  A.they must swim outdoors at least 8 times in the four cold months

  B.they must reach the age of 60

  C.they should be easy to make friends with

  D.they must agree to swim outdoors from November to February

73.According to the passage,some doctors believe it is true that_____.

  A.Polar Bears are bears swimming in freezing water

  B.cold-water swimming can make the body temperature dangerously high

  C.you are healthy if cold-water swimming turns your skin color blue

  D.cold-water swimming causes more heart attacks in summer than in winter

74.The Polar Bears like to swim year-round,for_____.

  A.it is an easy way ot keep the body warm in winter

  B.they can remain young

  C.they find it enjoyable and interesting

  D.they might meet fewer troubles in life

75.The passage is mainly about_____.[來源:]

  A.the requirements of the Polar Bear Club

  B.a group of cold-water-swimming livers

  C.the Polar Bears' life in New York

  D.doctors' ideas about cold-water swimming
