15、s quite far away, the potter would rest under a tree midway, 37 his donkey nearby. One day, the potter forgot to take the 38 with which he tied the donkey every day. When he reached the tree, he thought, “How do I tie this donkey today? He might 39 if I sleep.” The potter decided to lie down 40 the
16、donkeys ears so that the donkey would not run away. But 41 this way neither the donkey nor the potter was able to take a rest. A wise saint(圣人), who 42 to be passing by, saw the potter holding on to the donkeys ears. Then the saint wanted to know what the problem of the potter was. When he was 43 wh
17、at the problem was, the wise saint said, “Take the donkey to the place where you tie him every day. Pretend(假装) to tie him using a(n) 44 rope.

Sushi is not popular in Shanghai as it is a kind of Japanese traditional food. 53. From the text we may learn that Kamura is _. A. a cook
29、B. a waitress C. an actress D. an artist B If we are asked exactly what we were doing a year ago, we should probably have to say that we could not remember. But if we had kept a book and had written it in an account (陈 述) of what we did each day, we should be able to give an answer to the question.
30、It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotten because we dont have written account of them. Sometimes men did keep a record of the important happenings in their country, but it was often destroyed (破坏) by fire or in a war. Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the
31、people of that time and place did not know how to write. For example, we know a great deal about the people who lived in China 4,000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them. But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago
32、in central Africa because they had not learnt to write. Sometimes, even if the people cannot write, they may know something of the past. They have heard about it from older people and often songs and dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings, and those have been sung and
33、acted and told for many generations (代), for most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past. This we may call “remembered history”. Some of it has been written history because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing. But wh
34、ere there are no written records, such spoken stories are often helpful. 54. We can infer (推断) from the passage that _. A. if there are no written records, there is no history. B. a written account of our daily activities is useless for history. C. “Remembered history” is more reliable (可靠的) than wr
35、itten history. D. written records of the past play an important role in our learning of the human history. 55. We know very little about the central Africa 200 years ago because _. A. the people there did not know how to write B. there was nothing worth writing down at that time C. the written recor
36、ds were perhaps destroyed by fire in a war D. the people there paid no attention to the importance of keeping a record 56. “Remembered history” is considered as valuable only when _. A. it proves to right B. people are interested in it C. it is written down D. there is no written account 57. The pas
37、sage suggests (暗示) that we could have learnt much more about our past than we do now if the ancient people had _. A. made more songs and dances B. kept a record of every past event C. not burnt their written records in wars D. told the exact stories of the most important happenings C Some people mak
38、e you feel comfortable when they are around. You spend an hour with them and feel as if you have known them half your life. These people have something in common. And once we know what it is, we can try to do it ourselves. How is it done? Here are several skills that good talkers have. If you follow
39、 the skills, theyll help people feel relaxed and make friends with them quickly. First of all, good talkers ask questions. Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answer a question. One well-known businesswoman says, “At business lunches, I always ask people what they did that morning. Its a co
40、mmon question, but it will get things going.” From there you can move on to other matterssometimes to really personal questions. And how he answers will let you know how far you can go. Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to the answers. This point seems clear, but it isnt. Y
41、our questions should have a point and help to tell what type of person you are talking to. And to find out, you really have to listen carefully and attentively. Real listening at least means some things. First it means not to change the subject of conversation. If someone sticks to one topic, you ca
42、n take it as a fact that hes really interested in it. Real listening also means not just listening to words, but to tones of voice. If the voice sounds dull, then, its time for you to change the subject. Finally, good talkers know well how to deal with the moment of saying goodbye. If youre saying g
43、ood-bye, you may give him a firm handshake and say, “Ive really enjoyed meeting you.” If you want to see that person again, dont keep it a secret. Let people know what you feel, and they may walk away feeling as if theyve known you half their life. 58. Asking questions might be a quite good and suit
44、able way _. A. to begin your business talks B. for you to make new friends C. to get the conversation going smoothly D. for you to impress others with your questions 59. After having asked somebody a question, itll be polite of you to _. A. go on asking him more questions B. listen to his or her rep
45、ly carefully C. sit quietly without saying anything D. make clear what kind of person he is 60. Generally speaking, good talkers are persons who _.
