17、eeps on rising. B B When my sister Mertie told me she had put out tomato plants last summer, I was quite impressed. Since she was a garden-beginner, Mertie researched exactly how far apart to space her tomato plants; what kind of fertilizer to use; how to keep away the bugs, etc. Once they were plan
18、ted, she took care of them daily, anxiously awaiting the juicy tomatoes to appear. But, day after day, her plants were tomato-less while all of her neighbors who had also put out tomato plants were already enjoying the fruit of their labor. Frustrated, Mertie gave in and went to the market to search
19、 fresh tomatoes. While paying, Mertie told the farmer her troubles. The farmer paused to think for a moment and then asked, “Well, what kind of tomatoes did you plant?” “I think they were called Big Boy,” Mertie remembered. “Well theres your problem,” the farmer explained. “Big Boy and Better Boy to
20、matoes have a 95-day growing period whereas regular tomato plants produce fruit in as few as 70 daysyou just have to wait a little longer for the Big Boys.” With that new knowledge, Mertie went home with excitement, knowing they would be worth the wait. Thinking about my sisters gardening experience
21、, I had to smile. She just didnt know that Big Boy tomatoes took longer-neither did I-but once she discovered that information, she was no longer discouraged and upset about the lack of tomatoes on her plants. Instead, she was encouraged and excited to see them a few weeks later. 3 It makes me wonde
22、r how many of us have “Big Boy” dreams in our hearts, yet we just dont realize that they are of the “Big Boy” variety so we are discouraged and worn out with the waiting process. Instead of waiting with excitement, we give up on our dreams and figure we must have done something wrong to stop them fr

26、gest problems when we are talking is the awkward silence. Encountering this situation is so uncomfortable that you would avoid meeting new people in the first place. In the past, I struggled with this and I even thought it had to do with my DNA or something But later I learned that once you know how
27、 to keep those words flowing, you can meet and talk to anyone you like, which helps create great possibilities for friendship, fun and shared activities that you would otherwise have missed out on. After studying this in depth, I had different opinions and found that one of these common behaviors is
28、 the habit of filtering (过滤)-holding back from saying something until youve “checked” to make sure that what youre about to say is cool, impressive and interesting. Another problem is not learning to get in the mood for conversation. If you dont know how to change from subjects, then it can take a l
29、ot of time to warm up. It is the reflex (习惯性思维) that allows you to say whatever goes on in your mind. Its fun to realize that youre allowed to say whatever is on your mind. As long as you dont say anything that could land you in jail (监狱). All of the “Oh! Thats interesting” “Hmm, Ive never heard of
30、that” “Hmm, cool!” expressions are reactionary (保守的) bits of conversation that prove to the other person that youre really listening. This works 99% of the time. So, if you show some interest, theyll hang around and want to talk to you even more. Everyone knows that stories juice-up conversations, b
31、ut most people only talk about stories of their own lives. When someone mentions something related to any of 4 them, just tell the story, even if its not from your life. The more interesting, stranger or more frightening they are, the harder they are to forget. 28. If people can deal with the awkwar
32、d silence, they can . A. train their working skill B. improve their life quality C. enrich their social life D. establish their working relationship 29. When talking with others, we should .

The listeners curiosity and concern. 31. What does the underlined part “juice-up conversations” mean? A. making conversations more boring B. m
34、aking conversations livelier C. making conversations smoother D. making conversations more relaxing D D Forcing waiters and waitresses to survive on tips from customers rather than normal wages is a pointless, crude, and unique American custom that, in the past several years, a handful of progressiv
35、e restaurant owners have attempted to do away with. Danny Meyer, CEO of Union Square Hospitality Group, is about to join their ranks and has announced that he plans to gradually stop tipping at the companys 13 restaurants. What, exactly, is wrong with tipping? As Brian Palmer has explained, more or
36、less its everything. To start, leaving a waiters pay in the hands of customers has a feeling of classism (阶级歧视)And in theory, handing restaurant customers the power to tip is at least supposed to motivate better service. This fails in practice because humans turn out to be pretty arbitrary (随意的) abo
37、ut their tipping behavior. Research has shown that the amount diners tip has very little to do with their level of satisfaction. All of this doesnt encourage waiters and waitresses to do anything but turn over as many tables as possible. Tipping is also very unfair to kitchen staff. The law allows r
38、estaurants to divide tips between front-of-the-house workers like waiters, hosts, hostesses, and bartenders (调酒师), but not cooks. This creates a system in which the people serving the food in a restaurant can earn more than the people preparing it One of the most fascinating parts of Meyers move is
39、that, unlike some restaurant owners who have taken an anti-tipping stand, he wont simply add a standard extra charge to diners bills. Rather, Union Square Hospitality Group means to raise menu prices enough to fully cover the cost of a meal. If Meyer manages to move away from tipping at all without
40、hurting his profits, it would almost certainly set the stage for others to follow suit. 32. Whats Danny Meyer s attitude towards stopping tipping? A. Negative. B. Supportive. C. Objective. D. Doubtful. 33. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2? A. Tipping may disturb the restaurants management. B. T
41、ipping will guarantee diners high quality service. 5 C. Tipping can arouse the staffs enthusiasm for work D. Tipping will bring customers a sense of satisfaction. 34. What can we know about Union Square Hospitality group? A. Brian Palmer is in charge of it now. B. Its cooks earn much more than its s
42、ervers. C. Restaurant tipping has been totally banned there. D. Diners will be charged more for the dishes there. 35. What is the topic of the passage? A. Restaurants getting rid of tipping. B. Difficulties that restaurants are faced with. C. The popularity of no-tipping restaurants. D. Tips on runn

45、y with their children more often and give them problems to think about. 38._If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent. 39._ According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or sh
46、e is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things.
