A.　Goods for auction (拍賣) sales
　　B.　Definition of bidding
　　C.　Way to sell more goods by auction
　　D.　Auction sales in history
　　E.　Brief introduction to auctions
　　F.　Making a larger profit as an auctioneer
【小題1】______
Auctions are public sales of goods, conducted by an officially approved auctioneer. He asks the crowd assembled in the auction-room to make offers, or “bids”, for the various items on sale. He encourages buyers to bid higher figures, and finally names the highest bidder as the buyer of the goods. This is called “knocking down” the goods, for the bidding ends when the auctioneer strikes a small hammer on a table at which he stands.
【小題2】 ______
The ancient Roman probably invented sales by auction, and the English word comes from the Latin auction, meaning “increasing”. The Romans usually sold in this way the goods taken in war. In England in the eighteenth centuries, goods were often sold “by the candle”: a short candle was lit by the auctioneer, and bids could be made while it stayed alight.
【小題3】 ______
Practically all goods whose qualities vary are sold by auction. Among these are coffee, skins, wool, tea, furs, silk and wines. Auction sales are also usual for land and property, furniture, pictures, rare books, old china and similar works of art.
【小題4】 ______
An auction is usually advertised beforehand with full particulars of the articles to be sold and where and when they can be viewed by potential buyers. If the advertisement cannot give full details, catalogues are printed, and each group of goods to be sold together, called a “l(fā)ot”, is usually given a number. The auctioneer need not begin with Lot 1 and continue in the order of numbers: he may wait until he notices the fact that certain buyers are in the room and then produce the lots they are likely to be interested in.
【小題5】 ______
The auctioneer’s services are paid for in the form of a percentage of the price the goods are sold for. The auctioneer therefore has a direct interest in pushing up the bidding as high as possible. He will not waste time by starting the bidding too low. He will also play on the opponents among his buyers and succeed in getting a high price by encouraging two business competitors to bid against each other.

“進(jìn)化”不了的愛(ài)

孫君飛

進(jìn)化論包含著殘酷的叢林法則，也隱含著生命的自私自利性。一個(gè)生命個(gè)體要想很好地生存下去，必須要將自己變得更優(yōu)秀，學(xué)會(huì)“排他”，否則優(yōu)勝劣汰的只能是自己。不過(guò)，人們?cè)谟^察工蜂時(shí)，驚訝地發(fā)現(xiàn)，它們并未受到進(jìn)化論的影響，它們混沌若當(dāng)初，或者說(shuō)它們完美地保持著一種純粹而崇高的精神，這使它們成為生命進(jìn)化中的另類。

工蜂屬于生殖器官發(fā)育不完善的雌性蜂，即便能夠產(chǎn)卵，也只是沒(méi)有受精的卵，因此它們自身沒(méi)有繁殖能力。這種缺陷可怕而又不幸，然而工蜂對(duì)此無(wú)動(dòng)于衷，甘愿終身攜帶著缺陷而生，從未奢望將自身進(jìn)化得更完美更強(qiáng)悍。值得稱道的是，工蜂的適應(yīng)性反而很強(qiáng)大，它們擁有相當(dāng)厲害的武器——毒刺，刺上長(zhǎng)有倒鉤，一旦“亮劍”就不能回收利用。工蜂的毒刺是不折不扣的雙刃劍，在傷及侵害者的同時(shí)，自己的生命也面臨著終結(jié)。

蜜蜂家族中令人難以置信的社會(huì)結(jié)構(gòu)更加震驚著世人的心靈，在這里一切都那么井然有序，合乎“法則”，一切又那么一往情深，合乎“生命之愛(ài)”。蜜蜂的利他主義行為也許會(huì)讓達(dá)爾文難以理解，失去繁殖能力卻能夠?qū)⒏鞣N特征和習(xí)性一代代傳承下去的工蜂可能更讓達(dá)爾文目瞪口呆吧。答案其實(shí)很簡(jiǎn)單，一切都源于蜜蜂與眾不同的遺傳結(jié)構(gòu)。換言之，存在于工蜂體內(nèi)的遺傳基因極其頑強(qiáng)，只有它們才會(huì)驅(qū)使工蜂去鞠躬盡瘁地照顧其它跟自己具有相同基因的生命，甚至為對(duì)方犧牲自己，卻無(wú)怨無(wú)悔。

蜂后產(chǎn)下的受精卵天生高貴，常常會(huì)孵化出雌性幼蜂，而延續(xù)高貴的辦法只有一個(gè)：它們只有食用了工蜂分泌的蜂王漿之后，才能發(fā)育成具有生殖能力的小蜂后，否則它們?cè)陂L(zhǎng)大后依然屬于工蜂——從出生時(shí)開(kāi)始，便將生命獻(xiàn)給蜂群、終日辛勞的工蜂！

由于小蜂后的基因與工蜂的基因幾乎相同，從身形外貌上看，彼此也幾乎一模一樣，這也許使工蜂頓感一陣甜蜜而幸福、神圣而自豪的恍然：站在我面前的，莫不是又一個(gè)“我”？我由此獲得了新生，得到了永恒……工蜂在含辛茹苦喂養(yǎng)小蜂后的過(guò)程中，彼此的血緣關(guān)系升至最親密最牢固。它們?cè)�本不是毫不相關(guān)的兩個(gè)，而是見(jiàn)證生命延續(xù)、利他友愛(ài)的兩個(gè)。因?yàn)橄嗤�的基因存活在它們的生命之中，工蜂在潛意識(shí)里將蜂后看得比自己的生命更為重要，為了對(duì)方、也為了另一個(gè)“我”和“我們”，它們可以在必要時(shí)完全放棄自己現(xiàn)實(shí)的生命及其未來(lái)。

（選自在《思維與智慧》有刪節(jié)）

下列關(guān)于“工蜂”的表述，不符合原文意思的一項(xiàng)是

  A．作為生命個(gè)體，工蜂的生命隱含著自私自利性，要想不被淘汰，它必須將自己變得更優(yōu)秀，學(xué)會(huì)“排他”。   

  B．工蜂之所以成為生命進(jìn)化中的另類，是因?yàn)樗鼈兺昝赖乇３种�一種純粹而崇高的精神，并未受到進(jìn)化論的影響。   

  C．工蜂的適應(yīng)性很強(qiáng)，尾部長(zhǎng)有倒鉤的毒刺是相當(dāng)厲害的武器，在傷及侵害者的同時(shí)，工蜂的生命也意味著終結(jié)。   

  D．從出生開(kāi)始，就為蜂群而終日辛勞的工蜂，能把各種特征和習(xí)性一代代傳承下去，靠的是與眾不同的遺傳結(jié)構(gòu)。

下列有關(guān)“蜜蜂繁殖"的表述，符合原文意思的一項(xiàng)是

  A．蜂后是具有生殖能力的雌性蜂，產(chǎn)下的受精卵天生高貴，孵化出雌性幼蜂，幼蜂長(zhǎng)大以后就成為新一代蜂后。

  B．工蜂自身沒(méi)有繁殖能力，屬于生殖器官發(fā)育不完善的雌性蜂，即便能夠產(chǎn)卵，也只是沒(méi)有受精的卵，不能孵化幼蜂。

  C．存在于工蜂體內(nèi)的遺傳基因極其頑強(qiáng)，它驅(qū)使工蜂分泌蜂王漿，鞠躬盡瘁地照顧和自己具有相同基因的“孩子”。

  D．蜂后負(fù)責(zé)產(chǎn)卵，工蜂負(fù)責(zé)喂養(yǎng)幼蜂，因而小蜂后的基因與工蜂的基因幾乎相同，身形外貌上也幾乎一模一樣。

下列根據(jù)原文信息所作的推斷，不正確的一項(xiàng)是

  A．采粉、釀蜜、飼喂幼蟲(chóng)的工蜂是蜂群的主體，兒歌唱的“小蜜蜂，整天忙，采花蜜，釀蜜糖”，指的就是工蜂。

  B．蜜蜂家族一切都井然有序，合乎“法則”，合乎“生命之愛(ài)”，人類如果借鑒了這種社會(huì)結(jié)構(gòu)．可能會(huì)更有利于社會(huì)和諧。

  C．為了蜂后和后代，工蜂不惜犧牲自己，是因?yàn)樗鼈冇蟹瞰I(xiàn)精神，潛意識(shí)里將蜂后和后代看得比自己的生命更重要。

  D．工蜂一生從事的是利他的事業(yè)，而不是優(yōu)化自己的結(jié)構(gòu)來(lái)繁衍后代，從這一點(diǎn)來(lái)看，    達(dá)爾文的進(jìn)化論“適者生存”不科學(xué)。

51  Many things can become distractions (分散注意力). Your ability to focus your mind, emotions, and physical movements will directly influence your success. Staying focused on the task at hand can be easier said than done. Here are some powerful techniques that can help you improve your ability to focus.

    For physical control, it helps to have a constant exercise schedule.   52   Exercising helps you gain better command of your body, and even goes beyond the body, giving you more flexibility not just physically but also emotionally and mentally.  When you feel more comfortable in your body, you increase your self-confidence, which helps you feel more relaxed.

For mental control, meditation (沉思；冥想) does the task.     53     It' s easy to get distracted by things in your background, but in order to perform well you have to maintain a high degree of focus. When you relax your thoughts it trains your mind to deal effectively with outside distractions so you can stay centered on what matters most at the moment.

54   It prevents you from overreaction and also from overacting. When your emotions settle down, you gain greater awareness of the environment you' re in, and feel calm and in control.

  55   The good thing is that self-control can be developed.  Start exercising frequently, get yourself into meditation, and start to feel positive changes in your career and your life in general.

A. In short, focus requires self-control.

B. There are many benefits of exercising.

C. Generally speaking, you need to practise a lot.
