30、SHEET 1. 45 In England recently three foreign gentlemen approached a bus stop. They studied the information on the sign attached to the concrete post and decided which bus to take. About five minutes later the bus they wanted came along. They prepared to board it. Suddenly there was a clamor behind
31、them. People rushed onto the bus and tried to push them out of the way. Someone shouted insulting remarks about foreigners. The bus conductor came rushing down the stairs to see what all the trouble was about. The three foreign gentlemen looked puzzled and embarrassed. No one had told them about the
32、 British custom of queuing for a bus so that the first person who arrived at a bus stop is the first person to get on the bus. Learning the language of a country isnt enough. If you want to ensure a pleasant visit, find out as much as possible about the manners and customs of your hosts. You will pr
33、obably be surprised just how different they can be from your own. A visitor to India would do well to remember that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table. The left hand is supposed to be used for washing yourself. Also in India, you might see a man apparent
34、ly shaking his head at another and assume that he is disagreeing. But in many parts of India a rotating movement of the head is a gesture that signifies agreement or acceptance. Nodding your head when offered a drink in Bulgaria is likely to leave you thirsty. In that country you shake your head to
35、signify “yes“ pa nod indicates “no“. Arabs are known for their sumptuous hospitality. At a meal in countries on the Arabian Peninsula, you will find that any drinking vessel is repeatedly refilled as soon as you drain it. The way to indicate that you have had enough is to take the cup or glass in yo
36、ur hand and give it a little shake from side to side or place your hand over the top. In Europe it is quite usual to cross your lags when sitting talking to someone even at an important meeting. Doing this when meeting an important person in Thailand, however, could cause offence. It is considered t
37、oo informal an attitude for such an occasion. Also when in Thailand avoid touching the head of an adult - its just not done. 46 In India the left hand is supposed to be used for _. （ A） passing food at table （ B） washing oneself （ C） shaking hands （ D） offering drinks to guests 47 Where do people sh
38、ake their heads in a rotating movement to signify agreement? （ A） In Europe. （ B） In England. （ C） in India. （ D） In Thailand. 48 Which of the following is true? （ A） In Bulgaria, you are likely to be left thirsty if you nod when offered a drink. （ B） In Bulgaria, nodding ones head is a sign of agre
39、ement or acceptance, （ C） Your Arabic host wont refill your drinking vessel if you dont insist. （ D） In countries on the Arabian Peninsula you must shake your head to signify “yes“. 49 The last sentence “its just not done“ of the text means that no one in Thailand _. （ A） has ever done it （ B） can g
40、o away after having done it （ C） can do it nowadays （ D） considers it proper to do so 50 What must you do if you wish to ensure a pleasant visit to a foreign country? （ A） Master the language of that country. （ B） Speak less and watch more. （ C） Wait and see unless you are sure of success. （ D） Lear
41、n more about the culture as well as ensuring a command of the language. 50 Adam Smith, a writer in the 1700s, was the first person to see the importance of the division of labor and to explain part of its advantages. He gives as an example the process by which pins were made in England. “One man dra
42、ws out the wire, another strengthens it, a third cuts it, a fourth points it, a fifth grinds it at the top to prepare it to receive the head. To make the head requires two or three distinct operations. To put it on is a separate operation, to polish the pins is another. And the important business of
43、 making pins is, in this manner, divided into about eighteen distinct operations, which in some factories are all performed by different people, though in others the same man will sometimes perform two or three of them,“ Ten men, Smith said, in this way, turned out twelve pounds of pins a day or abo
44、ut 4 800 pins a person. But if all of them had worked separately and independently without division of labor, they certainly could not turn out any pin, each of them would have made twenty pins in a day and perhaps not even one There can be no doubt that division of labor is an efficient way of orga
45、nizing work. Fewer people can make more pins. Adam Smith saw this but he also took it for granted that division of labor is in itself responsible for economic growth and development and that it accounts for the difference between expanding economies and those that stand still. But division of labor
46、adds nothing new: it only enables people to produce more of what they already have. 51 According to the passage, Adam Smith was the first person to _. （ A） take advantage of the division of labor （ B） understand the effects of the division of labor （ C） explain the causes of the division of labor （
47、D） introduce the division of labor into England 52 Adam Smith saw that the division of labor _. （ A） enabled each worker to make pins more quickly and more cheaply （ B） increased the number of people employed in factories （ C） increased the possible output per worker （ D） improved the quality of pin
48、s produced 53 Adam Smith mentioned the number 4 800 in order to _. （ A） show the advantages of the division of labor （ B） emphasize how powerful the individual worker was （ C） show the advantages of the old craft system （ D） emphasize the importance of increased production 54 According to the writer
49、, Adam Smiths mistake was in believing that division of labor _. （ A） inevitably led to economic development （ B） was an efficient way of organizing work （ C） increased the production of existing goods （ D） was an important development in methods of production 55 Which of the following could serve as an appropriate title for the passage? （ A） The Theory of Division of Labor. （ B） Adam Smith as the Discoverer of Division o
