ANSWER SHEET. [+%d3+27  
Passage 1 8<yV  
  Guthrie's contiguity principle offers practical suggestions for how to break N75 3  
babies. Z6IJo%s  
  One application of the thrcshoM method involves the time young children < QDr,Hj  
spend on academic activities. Young children have short attention spans, so the obAs<nk  
length of time they can sustain work on one activity is limited. Most activities 8! H8[J  
are scheduled to last no longer than 30 to 40 minutes. However, at the start of U] V3DDN  
the school year, attention spans quickly wane and behavior problems often `26V`%bPkr  
result. To apply Gutiarie's theory, a teacher might, at the start of the year, limit S,*{q(   
activities to 15 to 20 minutes. Over the next few weeks the teacher could Uz6{>OCvk|  
gredually increase the time students spend working on a single activity. 5JBB+g  
  The threshold methoci also can be applied to teaching printing abd JrCf,?L^  
handwriting. When children first learn to form letters, their movements MkG`w,  
awkward and they lack free motor coordination. The distances between lines on :DtZ8$I`]C  
a page are purposely wide so children can fit the letters into the space. If paper a>o"^%x  
with narrow lines is initially introduced, students' letters would spill over the wr$cK'5ZL  
borders and students might become frustrated. Once students can form letters /d0Q>v.g  
within the larger borders, they can use paper with smaller borders to help them IL~]m?'V(  
refine their skills. <i\UMrD]`:  
  The fatigue method can be applied when disciplining disruptive students = n+q_.A  
who build paper airplanes and sail them across the room. The teacher can CfPXn0I  
remove the students from the classroom, We them a large stack of paper, and K#qoR/:  
tell them to start making paper airplanes. After the students have made several L;/9L[s,  
airplanes, the activity should lose its attraction and paper will become a cue for :3f-9aRC!  
not building airplanes. U91 &|  
  Some students continually race around the gym when they first enter their K :1g"  
physical education class. To employ the fatigue method, theteacher might )l`1)Ea~  
decide to have these students continue to run a few more laps after the class has 9@:BK;Fi  
begun. J.1O/Pw!.a  
  The incompatible response method can be used with students who talk and H_VEPp,T  
misbehave in the media center. Reading is incompatible with talking. The =WIE>*3[  
media center teacher might ask the students'to find interesting books and read J'o DOn.M  
them while in the center. Assuming that the studentS find the books enjoyable, # v{Y=$L  
the media center will, over time, become a cue for selecting and reading books JZ`>|<W  
rather than for talking with other students. *6:v}#b[  
In a social studies class some students regularly fall asleep. The teacher x>}B#  
realized that using the board and overhead projector while lecturing was very a "R7JjH  
boring. Soon the teacher began to incorporate other elements into each lesson, ZTN (irK  
such as experiments, videotapes, and debates, in an attempt to involvs students he"L*p*H  
and raise their interest in the course. e"]"F{Q  
41. The purpose of this passage is to___ TI}}1ScA'  
A. inform     B. persuade     C. debate   D. narrate 2;8Xz 6T  
42. Guthrie identified three methods for__ J0=7'@(p  
A. educating students       B. altering bad habits  Do|]eD  
C. avoiding undesired action     D. forming good hobbies ]fj-`==  
43. Which of the following is not the example of applying the threshold z<hFK+j,'^  
method? :pRF*^eU  
A. Parents introduce spinach in small bites or mixed with a food than the uS~#4;R   
  child enjoys over time so that the child will not refuse to eat it. n=q=zn;  
B. Teachers introduce academic content in short blocks of time for young @<2d8ed  
  children and gradually increase session length but not to where students nP<S6:s:  
  become frustrated or bored. k}GjD2m  
C. Paper with wider lines is first used and then paper with narrow lines is mb&lCd ^-  
  introduced step by step to help children learn printing and handwriting. -OrR $w| e  
D. A child might be made to throw toys until it is no longer fan by his vYdR ht\(  
  parents in order to change his behavior of repeatedly throwing toys. C}q>YRubZ  
44. To stop snacking while watching television, people should keep their hands TjxA#D)   
busy by sewing, painting, working crossword puzzles, and so forth. Over K1OkZ6kl  
time. watching TV becomes a cue for engaging in an activity other than b^x07lO  
snac 'king. What method is used in this example? <?YA,"~  
A. The threshold method.         B. The fatigue method. &R,9+c  
C. The incompatible response method.   D. The punishment method. V>Fesm"aq  
45. We can draw the conclusion from the passage that kx:jI^  
A. The incompatible response method is to force child to make unwanted W m . }Zh  
  response repeatedly in presence of stimulus until he or she becomes rFey4zzz  
  exhausted } #Doy{T  
B. The threshold method refers to introducing undesired behavior with a iCP~O  
  response incompatible with the undesired response so they can not be )1lu=gc  
  performed simultaneously )T1iN(Z  
C. The fatigue method means that engaging in the behavior is transformde m2xBS!fm  
  into avoiding it by introducing the stimulus at full strength so it becomes {:bN/zV#  
  a cue for not performing it uFG<UF  
D. The fatigue method is that in presence of stimulus teachers have child (u&`Ij9  
  make response incompatible with unwanted response ?,)"~c$hZ  
Passage 2 M&KyA  
The increase in global trade means that international companies cannot m|O1QM;T  
afford to make costly advertising mistakes if they want to be competitive. U%>'"  
Understanding the language and culture of target markets in foreign }Cj8  
countries is one of the keys to successful international marketing. Too many ^:KO_{3E  
companies, however, have jumped into foreign markets with embarrassing P`(Mk6gE  
wralts . ;b0NGa(k  
Translation mistakes are at the heart of many blunders in international `s"d]/85VW  
advertising. XRtD< jlA"  
General Motors, the US auto manufacturer, got a costly lesson when it j}f[W [2  
introduced its Chevrole Nova to the Puerto Rican market. "Nova" is Latin for 94/BG0  
new (star)" and means "star" in many languages, but in spoken Spanish it can .c+9P<VmC}  
sound like "no va", meaning "it doesn't go". Few people wanted to buy a car :Ht; 0|[H  
with that cursed meaning. When GM changed the name to Caribe, sales Z7a945Jd  
picked up" dramatically. 4_^[= p/R  
Marketing blunders have also been made by food and beverage companies. ;11x"S  
3ne American food company's friendly "Jolly Green Giant" (for advertising $B (kZ  
,egetables) became something quite different when it was translated into 2C=Q8ayvX  
Arabic as "Intimidating Green Ogre".  ZDt?j   
When translated into German Pepsi's popular slogan, "Come Alive with Bc5+ss  
Pepsi" came out implying "Come Alive from the Grave". No wonder customers .; Q:p*  
in Germany didn't rush out to buy Pepsi. 646JDX[o  
Successful international marketing doesn't stop with good EGVM)ur  
ranslafions--,-other aspects of culture must be researched and understood ff ?C-Tow o=i  
aarketers are to avoid blunders. WXw}^v  
When marketers do not understand and appreciate the values, tastes, HD>q(cK_|8  
geography, climate, superstitions, religion, or economy of a culture, they fail to pzZk\-0R  
capture their target market. 2JGL;U$  
For example, an American designer tried to introduce a new pentare ihto sD;M !K_  
the Latin American market but the product aroused little interest. The mail 4?\:{1X=  
reason was that the camellia used in it was traditionally used for funerals in !69&Ld  
many South American countries. <AH1i@4  
  Having awakened to the special nature of foreign advertising, companies V!_71x\-Q  
are becoming much more conscientious in their translations and more sensitive W/$Zvl  
to cultural distinctions. zi9[)YqxPH  
                        co8"sz0(U  
The best way to prevent errors is to hire professional translators who tBbOY}.VD  
understand the target language and its idiomatic usage, or to use a technique 'a6<ixgo0  
called "back translation" to reduce the possibility of blunders. w8S!%abl1  
  The process uses one person to translate a message into the target i:]*P  
language and another to translate it back. Effective translators aim to capture :KJ pk:<  
the, overall message of an advertisement because a word-for-word duplication u$#Wv2|mk  
of the original rarely conveys the intended meaning and often causes RD7^&  
misunderstandings. nfSbM3D]h  
In designing advertisements for other countries, messages need to be shot yZr M.%V  
and simple. Dl(3wgA  
They should also avoid jokes, since what is considered funny in one part eV:9y  
of the world may not be so humorous in another. MTg:dR_   
46. The best title of this passage might be __ . -i0(2*<  
A. Culture Is Very Important ia Advertishag v\16RD  
B. Avoid Cultural Misunderstanding between Nations 3~S'LxV  
C. Overcome Cultural Shock in Different Countries voP7"Dl[  
D. Advertisements Reflect Various Life Styles %VYAd)gC  
47. What does the word "blunder" mean in this passage? f=C,e/sw  
A. hesitation   B. mistake   C. stutter   D. default `ps)0!L L`  
48. Which of the following statements can be used to summarize the gist from *n" /a{6>  
Paragraph 3 to Paragraph 6? \PDd$syDA  
A. Cultural shocks       B. Faulty translations -p3Re9  
C. Avoid cultural oversights   D. Prevent blunders (?_S6H E  
49. We can learn from the context in Paragraph 9 that the word "ca " most p' M%XBu  
probably mean____ W;bu2ym&Q  
A. an animal used in perfume for its smell *Qugv^-  
B. a piece of fabric used both in perfume and at funerals S*j6Ow Z  
C. a flower used in perfume for its fragrance and used for funerals y_\p=0t8  
D. an nrnament used in prefume and at funerals *K> l*l(f]  
50. One way to prevent errors in advertising in different countries is to___ >:D j\"o  
A.fire the translators who don't know the target language. 'cY` w  
B.use the technique called "literal translation" to reduce the possibility of :ba5iMa

Passage 3 8_T6_jL<  
It is not unusual for chief executives to collect millions of dollars a year in z9aY]lHY  
pay, stock options, and bonuses. In the last fifteen years, while executive X]P:CY  
remuneration rose, taxes in the highest income bracket went down. Millionaires z dO#0t N  
are now commonplace. _YcA+3ZL  
Amiability is not a prerequisite for rising to the top, and there are a e{m2l2Tx:  
number of chief executive officers with legendary bad tempers. It is not the [IK  )  
boss's job to worry about the well-being of his subordinates although the man V}\~ugN)y  
with many enemies wi!! be swept out more quickly in hard times; it is the zN  [2YJ$  
company he worries about . His business savvy is supposed to be based on ) $PDo 7#  
intimate knowledge of .his company and the industry .so he goes home nightly 4~B> 9<$e>  
with a full briefcase. At the very top - and on the way up - executives are Q+YRf3$  
exceedingly dedicated. ULQMG'P^D  
The American executive must be capable of enough small talk to get him ;qrB\j"  
through the social part of his schedule, but he is probably not a highly cultured 33!oS&L  
individual or an intellectual. Although his wife may be on the board of the -wjN"g<  
symphony or opera, he himself has little time for such pursuits. His reading dPhQ :sd>  
may largely concern business and management, despite interests in other fields. .k,kTr$ S  
Golf provides him with a sportive outlet that combines with some useful LqA@&H  
socializing. fl\ly `_  
These days, he probably attempts some form of aerobic exercise to "keep ^Vpq$'!  
the old heart in shape" and for the same reason goes easy on butter and alcohol, () j =5KDu  
and substances thought to contribute to taking highly stressed executives out of 92EWIHEWZ  
the running. But his doctor's admonition to "take it easy" falls on deaf eyes. He  KQ~i<1&j  
likes to work. He knows there are younger men nipping at his heels. B'fb^n <  
Corporate head-hunting, carried on by "executive search fares," is a }`@728E  
growing industry. America has great faith in individual talent, and dynamic and &}A[x1x06)  
aggressive executives are so in demand that companies regularly raid each M8tRjNWS?  
other's managerial ranks. W VI{oso#  
51. We can infer from the second paragraph that___ +(h\fm7*-  
  A. promotion depends on amiability rnF/H=I/  
  B. chief executives do not work hard enough at the top level d!$Z (W0  
  C. it is the duty of the chief executive to look after the well-being of his h@[ R6G|

  D. a chief executive is expected to know more about his company and the BW "5Aj  
  industry ; d J1

  ____ `b^Ru+(dM  
  A. hallucination exercise ~x|F)~:0=

Passage 4 /N&CaH\;^$  
In November 1970 Yukio Mishima, together withsome of his fanatical 1*@'-mj  
followers from the ultranationalistic Shield Society WhiCh. he had four, dod in &M.66O@  
1966, broke into the headquarters of Japan's Eastern Defense Forces armed 5) pj]S!]-  
with swords and daggers, overpowered some aides, tied up the commanding j4cwI90=

kill himself in strict accordance with the tradifonal samurai ritual of seppuku. AMyIAZnYq)

  In 1936 there had been a similar revolt and, though equally unsuccessful, ZHm7Isa1  
it had foreshadowed the repressive re,me of General Tojo that was to stage tho T^Ze3L]

"Patriotism," one of Mishima's most powerful stories. Here life and fiction fR*q?,

dream of my life." Bom of an ancient samurai family, he longed to die a hero's Na?!;1]_  
death in accordance with the ancient samurai code; but his weak body kept him 9*{[buZX  
from service in the war, and he had to compensate through body building (he k{Me[B  
became expert at karate and kendo) and, most important, through the discipline !g(KK|`,m  
writing. In his short lifetime he turned out twenty novels, thirty plays, many ,^eYlmT>6

One might ask why speculation is permitted when there is so real a danger of \u>"s   
loss. The basic reason is that speculation can perform useful functions in the cvfr)K[0  
economy. Buying a commodity or stock in the belief that prices will rise speeds x\s|n{  
market equilibrium and encourages faster entry of more suppliers. If the price D*F4it.  
change lagged until after an actual commodity shortage had occurred, the g47-db"5  
fluctuation would probably be sharper and more sudden. Remedial supply ZOQTINf  
action could not be further delayed. Similarly, if speculators foresee a surplus in .D: Z{|.1  
some commodity, their selling of futures will help drive the price down to some 'b #0t#|TM  
extent before the SurpluS actually occurs. When speculators foresee a shortage sh`s /JRf  
and bid up the price, they are also helphng to conserve the present supply. As u*tN)f3  
the price goes up,less of the commodity is purchased; a rise in price 9lW;Nk*j:  
encourages users to ecor, om2ze. Similarly, a lowering of price encourages users !>e5z|1   
to buy more, thus helping to sell the surplus which is developing. jlBanGs?
