We can achieve knowledge either actively or passively(被动地).We achieve it actively by direct experience, by testing and proving an idea, or by reasoning.

We achieve knowledge passively by being told by someone else.Most of the learning that takes place in the classroom and the kind that happens when we watch TV or read newspapers or magazines is passive.Conditioned as we are to passive learning, it’s not surprising that we depend on it in our everyday communication with friends and co-workers.

Unfortunately, passive learning has a serious problem.It makes us tend to accept what we are told even when it is little more than hearsay and rumor(谣言).

Did you ever play the game Rumor? It begins when one person writes down a message but doesn’t show it to anyone.Then the person whispers it, word for word, to another person.That person, in turn, whispers it to still another, and so on, through all the people playing the game.The last person writes down the message word for word as he or she hears it.Then the two written statements are compared.Typically, the original message has changed.

That’s what happens in daily life.The simple fact that people repeat a story in their own words changes the story.Then, too, most people listen imperfectly.And many enjoy adding their own creative touch to a story, trying to improve on it, stamping(打上标记)it with their own personal style.Yet those who hear it think they know.

This process is also found among scholars and authors: A statement of opinion by one writer may be restated as a fact by another, who may in turn be quoted by yet another; and this process may continue, unless it occurs to someone to question the facts on which the original writer based his opinion or to challenge the interpretation he placed upon those facts.

According to the passage, passive learning may occur in _______.

     A.doing a medical experiment    B.solving a math problem

     C.visiting an exhibition          D.doing scientific reasoning

The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refers to _____.

     A.active learning        B.knowledge

     C.communication        D.passive learning

The author mentions the game Rumor to show that _____.

     A.a message may be changed when being passed on

     B.a message should be delivered in different ways

     C.people may have problems with their sense of hearing

     D.people tend not to believe in what they know as rumor

What can we infer from the passage?

     A.Active learning is less important.       

       B.Passive learning may not be reliable.

     C.Active learning occurs more frequently.    

       D.Passive learning is not found among scholars.

  Reg? Customers; and always returning calls, even when they are compants.

  Aiming for customer delight is all very well, but if services do not? ach the haigh level promised, disappointment or worse will be the result.This can be eased by offering an apolgy and an explanation of why the wervice did not meet usual standards with empathy(for example,”I know how you must feel”), and possible solutions(replace ment, compensation or whatever fairness suggests best meets the case).

  Airlines face some of the toughtest challenges over customer care, Fierce competition has conviced them at that delighting passengers is an important marketing tool, while there is great potential for customer anger over delays? by weathe, unclaimed luggage and technical?

  For British Airways staff, a winning telephone style is considered vital in handling the large volume of calls about bookings and flight times.They are trained to answer quickly,? their name, job title and a “we are here to help”attitude.The company has invested heavily in information technology to make sure that information is available instantly on screen.
