We → they us → them our → the

Ex: He says to her “ I miss you very much”

e.g. He (N1) said to Mary (N2): “ I can’t understand what you say”
 He said to Mary that he couldn’t understand what she said.

Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.

Body postures and movements are frequently indicators of self-confidence, energy, fatigue, or status.
Cognitively, gestures operate to clarify, contradict, or replace verbal messages. Gestures also serve an important
function with regard to regulating the flow of conversation. For example, if a student is talking about something
in front of the class, single nods of the head from the teacher will likely cause that student to continue and perhaps
more elaborate. Postures as well as gestures are used to indicate attitudes, status, affective moods, approval,
deception, warmth, arid other variables related to conversation interaction.
The saying "A picture is worth a thousand words" well describes the meaning of facial expressions. Facial
appearance - including wrinkles, muscle tone, skin coloration, and eye color-offers enduring cues that reve1il
information about age, sex, race, ethnic origin, and status.
A less permanent second set of facial cues-including length of hair, hairstyle, cleanliness, and facial hair-
relate to an individual's idea of beauty. A third group of facial markers are momentary expressions that signal that
cause changes in the forehead, eyebrows, eyelids, cheeks, nose, lips, and chin, such as raising the eyebrows,
wrinkling the brow, curling the lip.
Some facial expressions are readily visible, while others are fleeting. Both types can positively or negatively
reinforce the spoken words and convey cues concerning emotions and attitudes.
46. Gestures _________.
a. can do nothing with a conversation
b: can clarify the meaning of verbal messages.
c. may interrupt the flow of a conversation
d. can end a conversation more quickly than usual

Preparation is a key to a successful interview. Does the idea of going to a job interview make you
feel a little nervous? Many people find that it is the hardest part of the employing process. But it is not
really true. The more you prepare and practice, the more comfortable you will feel. You should find out
as much as possible about the company before you go to the interview. Understand the products that
they produce and the services that they provide. It is also good to know who the customers are and who
the major competitors are. Practice makes perfect. It will also make you feel more confident and relaxed.
So, practice your answers to common questions. Make a list of questions to ask, too. Almost all
interviewers will ask if you have questions. This is a great opportunity for you to show your keenness,
enthusiasm, and knowledge.
Make a great impression. The interview is your chance to show that you are the best person for the
job. Your application or resume has already exhibited that you are qualified. Now it is up to you to show
how your skills and experience match this position and this company. The employer will be looking and
listening to determine if you are a good fit. He/she will be looking for a number of different qualities, in
addition to the skills that you possess. To make the best impression, dress appropriately; express your
strengths; arrive early, by about 10-15 minutes; be enthusiastic; shake hands firmly; be an active
listener; sit up straight and maintain eye contact; and ask questions
After the interview, follow up with a thank-you note. This is a chance for you to restate your interest and
how you can benefit the company. Your best bet is to try to time it so that the note gets there before the
hiring: decision is made. You should also follow up with a phone call if you do not hear back from the
employer within the specified time.
41.The pronoun it refers to ________.
A. the job B. the interview C. the interviewer D. the preparation
42. What does the writer advise you to practice?
A. Asking and answering questions related to the job.
B. Making products that the company produces.
C. Providing services that the company serves.
D. Meeting some customers and competitors.
43.Which should not be shown during your interview?
A. Punctuality B. A firm hand shaking
C. Being properly-dressed D. Weaknesses
44. You can show your qualifications in the
A. dressing style and punctuality B. competing with the competitors
C. resume and letter of application D. eye contact with the interview
45. Which is not included in the writer's advice?
A. You should not communicate with the interviewer after the interview.
B. You should make the best impression in the interview.

People used to know more or less how their children would live. Now things are
changing so quickly that they don’t even know what their own lives will be like in a few
years’ time. What follows is not science fiction. It is how experts see the future.
You are daydreaming behind the steering wheel; is it too dangerous? No! That’s
no problem because you have it on automatic pilot, and with its hi-tech computers and
cameras, your car “know” how to get you home safe and sound.
What is for lunch? In the old days you used to stop off to buy a hamburger or a
pizza. Now you use your diagnostic machine to find out which foods your body needs. If
your body needs more vegetables and less fat, your food-preparation machine makes you a
salad.
After lunch, you go down the hall to your home office. Here you have every-thing
you need to do your work. Thanks to your information screen and your lastest generation
computer, you needn’t go to the office any more. The information screen shows an urgent
message from a co-worker in Brazil. You can instantly send back a reply to him and go on
to deal with other matters.

Aquatic sports — sports involving playing in or upon the water — take various
forms. The main activities include swimming, synchronized swimming, diving and water
polo. Swimming is the act of moving through the water by using the arms, legs, and body
in motion. It is an integral part of almost all water-based activities. In synchronized
swimming, the players perform beautiful maneuvers to music and diving. Water polo, on
the other hand, is a game where two opposing teams play against each other, attempting to
throw a buoyant ball into the opponent’s goal.
Underwater activities are less varied, the most popular of which are snorkeling and
scuba diving. Snorkeling involves swimming face down just below the water surface
while breathing through a slender plastic tube called a snorkel, meanwhile scuba divers
carry a big tank of air that allows them to breathe while deep underwater.
Aquatic sports have long been acknowledged as excellent ways to take physical
