P-Porter                        L-Lizzy
P:Now that we've arranged the time and place,we can write the invitation.
L:(61)C
P:How about this"To celebrate 10years in business,Holly Porter requests the honor of your presence at …"(62)D
L:It just sounds very formal.
P:What do you suggest,then?
L:How about this:"After 10years at Porter Printing,it's time to celebrate!Join us at…"
P:That does sound better.
L:Should the invitation include children,Ms.Porter?
P:(63)E
L:How would you like to say that,then?
P:I guess we can't say,"No kids please,"can we?
L:(64)FHow about just addressing the invitation to"employee and guest"?
P:(65)B

A.No,no.I don't mind.
B.That sounds fine.I hope they get the hint(暗示).
C.What would you like it to say?
D.What's the matter?You don't like this?
E.No.Not this time.
F.That may not sound very nice.
G.That would be fine with us.

分析 本文是两人针对公司成立10周年庆祝活动邀请函写法的一段对话.双方就如何措辞、是否邀请孩子参加等问题进行了交流并达成了一致意见.

解答 61.C      根据上句中的we can write the invitation.可知,对方是想听听他的见解,即C.What would you like it to say?后面的How about this"也正好相吻合;故选C.
62.D      此空前出现了停顿,以及下一句It just sounds very formal.可知,是对方有想法,说是这样写邀请函太正式了,所以此处应该是询问对方的意见:What's the matter?You don't like this?故选D.
63.E       该空是对Should the invitation include children,Ms.Porter?的回答,所以No.Not this time.这次就不请孩子来参加了符合要求;故选E.
64.F       根据后面的内容How about just addressing the invitation to"employee and guest"?可知,"No kids please,"的表达是不合适的;所以That may not sound very nice.符合语境;故选F.
65.B      最后发表对just address the invitation to"employee and guest"观点,所以That sounds fine.I hope they get the hint(暗示).比较合乎情景;故选B.

点评 本题重点要求考生对全文的理解,尤其是对上下文的理解,正确把握说话者意图就能逐一排除.

12.Once upon a time there was a businessperson who had the task of convincing an audience of the need for the business to plan better for the future.Instead of starting out with a spreadsheet and a long list of numbers,he started with a story we all know,"The Three Little Pigs".He attracted his audience with the brilliance of the little pig who built his house out of brick,and then used that metaphor(暗喻)to carry on his discussion of long-term planning.
There are many ways to communicate depending on the message you need to deliver,who the targeted receiver is,and the urgency of the message.
The military officer orders.
The advertiser entices(诱惑).
The leader inspires.
The trainer,educator,or coach motivates.
Since few of us are in a position to communicate by barking orders,we have to learn to become more effective in enticing,inspiring,and motivating.Perhaps the most effective method is to think back to the days when you were a child and your parents told you a bedtime story.Many of these stories are short tales that carries a lesson or moral attitude in an entertaining manner.But stories are not just for little kids,we all listen more attentively when we are entertained.
Listeners become involved when being told a story.Our comprehension and sympathy increases as we identify with the circumstances,the people,and events that we imagine when an entertaining story is told with skill and affection.A story is so much better than a dry,factual laundry list of"do's"and"don'ts."
When you have to convince,motivate,inspire,sell,or entertain,think of preparing your communication in a form your audience will react to with enthusiasm and wonder.It will help them better prepare for the day that big bad wolf comes to huff and puff(呼气吸气)and blow the house down.

68.The first paragraph serves as aC.
A.summary     B.comment
C.lead-in     D.background
69.Which of the following does the author think is most effective?A
A.Instructive and entertaining stories.
B.A long list of numbers.
C.Imaginary and adventurous stories.
D.Romantic short tales.
70.By the underlined sentence,the writer means that a good communicationC.
A.helps the audience fight against bad wolves
B.helps the audience build a stronger house
C.has a better effect and influence on the audience
D.attracts the audience to learn more lessons from tales
71.Which of the followings may be the best title of the passage?C
A.How To Tell a Story?
B.How To Deliver a Speech?
C.Let Me Tell You a Little Story
D.Let Me Tell You Some"Do's"and"Don'ts"

A.recently      B.affects      C.pattern      D.varied   E.floats
F.warm        G.regularly    H.mysterious   I.effect    J.evidence
Big climate changes in the last million years might have come from something very small dust from outer space.
Earth changes between ice ages and warm periods in a(n) (41)Cthat includes several cycles,including a (42)H one that lasts 100,000years.Scientists (43)Asuggested this cycle might be due to changes in the inflow of cosmic(宇宙) dust.
The idea is that Earth (44)Eabove and below the imaginary planet that runs through the sun and Jupiter(木星),completing a cycle every 100,000years.So maybe it encounters (45)Gvarying amounts of dust during each cycle that produce the climate trend.
Now there is some (46)J,from ancient cosmic dust recovered in ocean-floor drilling near the Azores islands west of Portugal.The large quantity of the dust rises and falls with a wonderful 100,000year cycle during the period analyzed,253,000years to 458,000years ago.Periods of more dust are related to(47)F climates.
But that is a long way from showing that the dust (48)Bclimate.Some scientists argue that it is not clear how cosmic dust would make the climate warmer while dust from volcanoes is known to make it cooler.They say the cosmic dust is so thin that it is hard to see how it could have any climate(49)I.
Nevertheless,the new study shows scientists have to take the cosmic dust idea seriously.
