Passage 1 s6;ZaU
Guthrie's contiguity principle offers practical suggestions for how to break A+\rGVNH'S
babies. 3aU4Z|f~
One application of the thrcshoM method involves the time young children md\Vw?PkU
spend on academic activities. Young children have short attention spans, so the _]3#C[1L
length of time they can sustain work on one activity is limited. Most activities mmNn,>AO!
are scheduled to last no longer than 30 to 40 minutes. However, at the start of ].QzOV'
the school year, attention spans quickly wane and behavior problems often
2Mw`
result. To apply Gutiarie's theory, a teacher might, at the start of the year, limit *'{9(Oj
activities to 15 to 20 minutes. Over the next few weeks the teacher could /6 x[C
gredually increase the time students spend working on a single activity. D7B g!*
The threshold methoci also can be applied to teaching printing abd 4VsttT
handwriting. When children first learn to form letters, their movements &t6SI'
awkward and they lack free motor coordination. The distances between lines on gKWUHlQY
a page are purposely wide so children can fit the letters into the space. If paper 2G:KaQ)
with narrow lines is initially introduced, students' letters would spill over the 'auYm
X
borders and students might become frustrated. Once students can form letters bQ0+Y?,+/
within the larger borders, they can use paper with smaller borders to help them c47.,oTo
refine their skills. A*]sN8
The fatigue method can be applied when disciplining disruptive students LTb#1JC
who build paper airplanes and sail them across the room. The teacher can ue!4By8T
remove the students from the classroom, We them a large stack of paper, and ~sWXd~\
tell them to start making paper airplanes. After the students have made several
$TAsb>W!(
airplanes, the activity should lose its attraction and paper will become a cue for H$zD k
not building airplanes. m^tf=O<
Some students continually race around the gym when they first enter their nIUts?mB
physical education class. To employ the fatigue method, theteacher might G{a_\'7
decide to have these students continue to run a few more laps after the class has |Ur$H!oe?'
begun. +' .o
The incompatible response method can be used with students who talk and .SWn/Kk
misbehave in the media center. Reading is incompatible with talking. The a3 t||@v!
media center teacher might ask the students'to find interesting books and read 97}l`z;Z
them while in the center. Assuming that the studentS find the books enjoyable, (S&D
the media center will, over time, become a cue for selecting and reading books ORIXcj]
rather than for talking with other students.
G98f Bw
In a social studies class some students regularly fall asleep. The teacher 0A75)T=lQ
realized that using the board and overhead projector while lecturing was very ? y[i6yN9
boring. Soon the teacher began to incorporate other elements into each lesson, a{kLAx[>
such as experiments, videotapes, and debates, in an attempt to involvs students
+OOmy
and raise their interest in the course.

45. We can draw the conclusion from the passage that 7k#0EhN 1>
A. The incompatible response method is to force child to make unwanted |h2=9\:]
response repeatedly in presence of stimulus until he or she becomes L&Pj0K-HT3

B. The threshold method refers to introducing undesired behavior with a TA!6|)BUW
response incompatible with the undesired response so they can not be /wJocx]vQ

The increase in global trade means that international companies cannot l#3jJn
afford to make costly advertising mistakes if they want to be competitive. ME'LZ"VT
Understanding the language and culture of target markets in foreign li%A?_/m<&
countries is one of the keys to successful international marketing. Too many \_t[\&.a}
companies, however, have jumped into foreign markets with embarrassing o(oD8Ni
wralts . XOPiwrg%p
Translation mistakes are at the heart of many blunders in international n<DZb`/uHZ
advertising. GBGna3
General Motors, the US auto manufacturer, got a costly lesson when it HXQ
}B$V
introduced its Chevrole Nova to the Puerto Rican market. "Nova" is Latin for nF=[m; ~
new (star)" and means "star" in many languages, but in spoken Spanish it can
{R5_=MG
sound like "no va", meaning "it doesn't go". Few people wanted to buy a car eVGW4b
with that cursed meaning. When GM changed the name to Caribe, sales F|?}r3{aJ
picked up" dramatically. muIJeQ.C
Marketing blunders have also been made by food and beverage companies. 5O:4-}hz
3ne American food company's friendly "Jolly Green Giant" (for advertising snyA
,egetables) became something quite different when it was translated into i6xzHfaYG
Arabic as "Intimidating Green Ogre". So}pA2[0
When translated into German Pepsi's popular slogan, "Come Alive with Ej$oRo{IG
Pepsi" came out implying "Come Alive from the Grave". No wonder customers :<,tGYg/!
in Germany didn't rush out to buy Pepsi. G PL^!_
Successful international marketing doesn't stop with good !r9~K^EI
ranslafions--,-other aspects of culture must be researched and understood ff v'SqH,=d
aarketers are to avoid blunders. a
#+;BH1
When marketers do not understand and appreciate the values, tastes, |5\:
E}1
geography, climate, superstitions, religion, or economy of a culture, they fail to Kj#h9e
capture their target market. M#xol/)h
For example, an American designer tried to introduce a new pentare ihto @Zfg]L{Lr
the Latin American market but the product aroused little interest. The mail DU:+D}vl
reason was that the camellia used in it was traditionally used for funerals in %m "9 =C
many South American countries. kvam`8SeL
Having awakened to the special nature of foreign advertising, companies `k3sl
0z%
are becoming much more conscientious in their translations and more sensitive FF#?x@
N:
to cultural distinctions. *N%)+-
X'usd$[.
The best way to prevent errors is to hire professional translators who "2`/mtMon
understand the target language and its idiomatic usage, or to use a technique Ob|v$C
called "back translation" to reduce the possibility of blunders. 7lG,.W|
The process uses one person to translate a message into the target @EUvx
language and another to translate it back. Effective translators aim to capture QMwV6cA
the, overall message of an advertisement because a word-for-word duplication @gm!D`YL
of the original rarely conveys the intended meaning and often causes a-9sc6@
misunderstandings. ^6 \@$
In designing advertisements for other countries, messages need to be shot U (A#}
and simple. >

They should also avoid jokes, since what is considered funny in one part rnXoA, c/
of the world may not be so humorous in another. g>_d,#F

Passage 3 u1/q8'RW
It is not unusual for chief executives to collect millions of dollars a year in 4
zipgw
pay, stock options, and bonuses. In the last fifteen years, while executive
A}n7A
remuneration rose, taxes in the highest income bracket went down. Millionaires XC\'8hL:
are now commonplace. LH>h]OTQF
Amiability is not a prerequisite for rising to the top, and there are a WFMQ;
number of chief executive officers with legendary bad tempers. It is not the kk+:y{0V
boss's job to worry about the well-being of his subordinates although the man 5z9'~Gfb
with many enemies wi!! be swept out more quickly in hard times; it is the l6HT}x7OiH
company he worries about . His business savvy is supposed to be based on q4ej7T8
intimate knowledge of .his company and the industry .so he goes home nightly ;Yn_*M/*
with a full briefcase. At the very top - and on the way up - executives are 8YkCTJfBGu
exceedingly dedicated. _O"C`]]
The American executive must be capable of enough small talk to get him [jgC`
through the social part of his schedule, but he is probably not a highly cultured u9%AK g}~
individual or an intellectual. Although his wife may be on the board of the scR+F'M
symphony or opera, he himself has little time for such pursuits. His reading dhI+_z
may largely concern business and management, despite interests in other fields. <F+9#-
Golf provides him with a sportive outlet that combines with some useful rOXh?r
socializing. Z%I9:(
These days, he probably attempts some form of aerobic exercise to "keep X e\,:~
the old heart in shape" and for the same reason goes easy on butter and alcohol, 8!Q0:4Vb
and substances thought to contribute to taking highly stressed executives out of JL&ni]m
the running. But his doctor's admonition to "take it easy" falls on deaf eyes. He ]=m0@JTbG
likes to work. He knows there are younger men nipping at his heels. 5c3&4,,eR
Corporate head-hunting, carried on by "executive search fares," is a U%_6'5s{^
growing industry. America has great faith in individual talent, and dynamic and M@O<b-
aggressive executives are so in demand that companies regularly raid each KS(Ms*k;'
other's managerial ranks. QNCG^ub
51. We can infer from the second paragraph that___ btIh%OM
A. promotion depends on amiability e+P|PW
B. chief executives do not work hard enough at the top level _JXb|FIp
C. it is the duty of the chief executive to look after the well-being of his ,Y2){8#l
subordinates 8:

D. a chief executive is expected to know more about his company and the j=TGe
industry /A/k13 J
52. The term "aerobic exercise" (fa'st line in second last paragraph) is a kind Of Se&%Dr3Nv
____ 2[$` ]{U
A. hallucination exercise T1pMe{

Passage 4 h&6v&%S/L
In November 1970 Yukio Mishima, together withsome of his fanatical c0%%X!!$
followers from the ultranationalistic Shield Society WhiCh. he had four, dod in h .Iscr^~
1966, broke into the headquarters of Japan's Eastern Defense Forces armed ^J=l] l
with swords and daggers, overpowered some aides, tied up the commanding 7!E?(3$#"
general, and demanded that the troops be assembled to hear a speech. Mishima Qm X(s
addressed the troops for ten minutes, inciting them to rebel against the s~(iB{-
constitutional govemment imposed by the United States that had, in his words, )} H46
"turned Japan spineless." Receiving only ridicule in response, he returned to the c{u~=24;%#
general's office and there, before the general's unbelieving eyes, proceeded to DEw_dOJ(
kill himself in strict accordance with the tradifonal samurai ritual of seppuku. /WJ*ro]Hd$
After Mishima had driven a dagger deep into his left abdomen, one of his aides Bld $<uU
severed his head with a sword. The aide likewise 'killed himself and was Q7 Clr{&
5eheaded; the others surrendered. zU'\r~c
In 1936 there had been a similar revolt and, though equally unsuccessful, )c#m<_^
it had foreshadowed the repressive re,me of General Tojo that was to stage tho [1Yx#t
attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. That earlier revolt is the one referred to in Uaho.(_GP
"Patriotism," one of Mishima's most powerful stories. Here life and fiction #D$vH
become joined. The act of seppuku was for Mishima a fulfdlment, "the ultimate })R8VJ&C/
dream of my life." Bom of an ancient samurai family, he longed to die a hero's -m:i~^
u
death in accordance with the ancient samurai code; but his weak body kept him l ^*Gq
P5
from service in the war, and he had to compensate through body building (he ?N,'1I
became expert at karate and kendo) and, most important, through the discipline !ACWv*pW
writing. In his short lifetime he turned out twenty novels, thirty plays, many aNpeePF)z
essays, and more than eighty stories: he also produced, directed, and acted in yuvt<kz
movies, and even sang on stage. His first book of stories, A Forest in Flower, XLK#=YTI
appeared in 1943, but it was Confession of a Mask (1948), dealing with the #cBt@SEL'
meditations of a young man of homosexual leanings in a repressive society, that |yi3y `f
brought him fame. '|b {

One might ask why speculation is permitted when there is so real a danger of q^Lj)zmnK
loss. The basic reason is that speculation can perform useful functions in the P6S^wjk
economy. Buying a commodity or stock in the belief that prices will rise speeds <8!mmOK1
market equilibrium and encourages faster entry of more suppliers. If the price ]1%H.pF
change lagged until after an actual commodity shortage had occurred, the n<\^&_a
fluctuation would probably be sharper and more sudden. Remedial supply Kom$i<O?48
action could not be further delayed. Similarly, if speculators foresee a surplus in 5|xFY/%
some commodity, their selling of futures will help drive the price down to some 1QE-[|
extent before the SurpluS actually occurs. When speculators foresee a shortage DyG3|5s1R
and bid up the price, they are also helphng to conserve the present supply. As uwQ{y>SG
