題目列表(包括答案和解析)

　　A few weeks ago I was about to take my son to his ice hockey game when I noticed something unusual．He was fully dressed and ready to leave, except that one side of his shirt was tucked(塞)into his trousers while the other side remained hanging out．

　　“John, you look great, but you forgot to tuck in your shirt”, I said．

　　“Dad, you don't understand…”he replied,“I keep one side of my shirt out on purpose．It's for good luck．”

　　And then I understood．Superstitions(迷信)and sports go hand in hand．In fact, I would bet that superstitious behavior has been a part of sports since the beginning of organized games．

　　Perhaps you've noticed your own young athlete developing some unusual pre-game rituals(儀式)：putting on the same dirty undershirt game after game, wearing one sock up and one sock down, eating a particular pre-game meal, listening to the same song on the tape while riding to the game．

　　In fact, from my experience of observing even top professional athletes, superstitions are nothing more than patterns that many athletes go through, not so much to ensure good luck, but rather to help them relax and be comfortable．

　　It is unusual for six-or-seven-year-old children to have already developed some sports superstitions, but by the time they're 10 or 11, your kids might begin displaying some odd behavior before a game．As a parent, don't be overly concerned．

　　Of course, you'll want to respect your child's requests about wearing that special“l(fā)ucky shirt”or making certain you feed him that“l(fā)ucky breakfast”or whatever．Don't put down the ritual．However, you should point out to your child that while it's fine to develop a pre-game ritual to help him or her prepare for a contest, you'll also want to emphasize that one's success in sports is much more a function of hard work, practice and determination．After all, those are the real values you want to put into your child's mind．

　　Most superstitions last only as long as the athlete continues to experience“good luck”．Once that streak of good fortune runs out, he'll be glad to drop that undershirt into the washing machine．

(1)

[　　]

A．

Which of the following statements is NOT true?

[　　]

A．

B．

C．

Even though the behavior is harmless to the child, a teammate or an opponent, we still can't say the superstitious behavior is fine．

D．

If a child begins displaying some odd behavior before a game as sports superstitions, a parent needn't worry too much．

(3)

What shouldn't you do according to the passage?

[　　]

A．

Tell your kid more about the top athletes' superstitions and encourage him to do so．

B．

Tell your young athlete：The harder they work at their sports, the luckier they'll become．

C．

Respect the rights and privacy of some kids who don't want to talk about their superstitions．

D．

Keep a sense of humor about your kids superstitions, and let them do the same．

[　　]

B．

C．

[　　]

A．

Because it is sure to bring them good luck．

B．

Because they are not wise enough．

C．

Because they can be relaxed．

D．

Because it is a pre-game ritual．

“Business is war.” The traditional language of business certainly makes it sound that way: winning the competition, getting market share, beating up suppliers, locking up customers. There are the victors and the losers.

       But today in doing business, you have to listen to shareholders, work with suppliers, keep good relations-even with competitors. That doesn’t sound like war. Besides, there are few victors when business is looked upon as war.

       Most businesses succeed only if others also succeed. Business is competition and cooperation as well. In other words, business is war and peace.

       To bring together competition and cooperation, we turn to game theory. Game theory provides that whether one person wins or loses depends on what other people do. It is particularly effective when there are many interdependent factors and no decision can be made in isolation from other decisions.

       Game theory breaks down the game into key elements :players, added values, rules, tactics（計(jì)謀）, and scope (PARTS).Every element affects the result of the game. This means that each of the five elements gives you a way to change an existing game into an entirely new one. Change one of the PARTS, and you change the whole.

       Why change the game? An old Chinese saying explains: If you continue on the course you’re heading, that’s where you’ll end up. Sometimes that’s good, sometimes not. You can play the game very well, and still suffer great loss. That’s because you’re playing the wrong game: you need to change it. Even a good game can be made into a better one. Real success comes from actively shaping the game you play-from making the game you want, not taking the game you find.

46．The author of this passage is _______ the idea that “Business is war.”

       A．in favor of          B．a(chǎn)gainst              C．considering       D．doubtful of

47．“PARTS” stands for _______.

       A．players, added values, rules, tactics and scope   

       B．a(chǎn)ll of the elements in the game theory

       C．the parties in a game                       

       D．the parts that affect the result of the game

48．The correct understanding of the underlined sentence in the last paragraph is _______.

       A．you are really good at playing the game, but you still lose it out

       B．you are so competitive that you beat up all of your competitors terribly

       C．you play the game too well to suffer great loss

       D．the competition is so hard that you have to put all your heart into it

49．The author thinks that _______.

       A．we shall play very hard          

       B．we shall continue in the course we are heading

       C．we shall play in the right direction 

       D．we shall always change no matter the change is good or not

50. Why does the writer mention game theory?

   A. To inform the readers of the key elements.

   B. To explain how competition and cooperation co-exist in business.

   C. To prove business is war.

   D. To introduce the Chinese old saying.
