You should make the correct choice. 36 The motor vehicle has killed and disabled more people in its brief history than any bomb or weapon ever i
17、nvented. Much of the blood on the street flows essentially from impolite behavior of drivers who refuse to respect the legal and moral, rights of others. So the killing on the road may be regarded as a social problem. In fact the enemies of society on wheels are a rather harmless people, just ordina
18、ry people acting carelessly, you might say. But it is a principle both of law and common morality (道德 ) that carelessness is no excuse when ones actions could bring death or damage to others. Researchers have estimated that as many as 80 percent of all automobile accidents result from the psychologi
19、cal condition of the driver. Emotional upsets can damage drivers reactions, slow their judgment, and blind them to dangers that might otherwise be obvious. The experts warn that it is essential for every driver to make a conscious effort to keep ones emotions under control. Yet the irresponsibility
20、that accounts for much of the problem is not confined to drivers. Street walkers regularly violate traffic regulations. They are at fault in most vehicle walker accidents.

25、vehicle accidents Task 2 Directions: This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45. 41 The business cycle is composed of many phases and one of them is the expansion phase. This phase is a two-fold one, including recovery and prosperity. During
26、the recovery period there is an ever-growing expansion of existing equipment. And new facilities for production are created. More businesses are created and older ones expanded. Improvements of serious kinds are made. There is an ever increasingly positive view about the future of economic growth. M
27、uch capital is invested in machinery or “heavy“ industry. More labor is employed. More raw materials are required. As more parts of the economy develop, other parts are affected. For example, the expansion in automobiles results in an expansion of the steel and rubber industries. Roads are required;
28、 thus the cement and machinery industries are activated. Demand for labor and materials results in greater prosperity for workers and suppliers of raw materials. This increases the amount of goods bought and sold. Thus prosperity develops among the various parts of the population. This prosperity, p
29、eriod may continue to rise without an obvious end. However, a time comes when this phase reaches a peak and stops going upwards. This is the end of the expansion phase. 41 Which of the following does NOT happen in economic recovery? （ A） The expansion of existing facilities. （ B） The creation of new

After reading it, you are required to complete the outline in the table below (No. 46 through 50). You should write you
34、r answers briefly (in no more than 3 words) on the blanks. 46 In order to write better business reports, you should bear in mind some important factors. First of all, although there is usually overlap between the different types of business reports, there are also important differences. For example,
35、 do they want: a business proposal, a strategic plan, or what? Knowing exactly what type of final report is expected from the outset. Secondly, once you know exactly what the client wants, and the specific type of report they are looking for, you are ready to conduct your initial pre-report research
36、. This stage may be as simple as collecting and reading a few background documents supplied by the client, or it could involve developing questionnaires and conducting detailed interviews with the appropriate people. A trick I always use when working with MS-Word is to create a skeleton document fir
37、st. That is, before you actually write any of the text, enter the entire Table of Contents that you have already developed into MS-Word, heading by heading, including sub-headings. Finally, once the skeleton framework is in-place, writing the actual report becomes almost like filling in the blanks.
