二、阅读理解单项选择题（本大题共40分，共 4 小题，每小题 10 分）
1. Gift giving customs vary greatly from country to country. What is consideredappropriate in France may be entirely inappropriate in Japan.

To the Japanese, gift giving is a way ofcommunicating respect, friendship, and appreciation. When meeting with a groupof Japanese professionals, be sure to give higher quality gifts to those withmore senior rank within the company. Always present the gift with two hands.This is also true with presenting business cards.

Gift giving in Australia, Canada, UnitedStates, European countries is rarely expected. While seen as a nice gesture, itis more important to avoid gifts that will be regarded as bribes( 行贿 ). Small gifts such as pens, business diaries, and mementos withcompany logos are usually sufficient. It is important to avoid highly personalgifts such as clothing. When visiting the home of a colleague from one of thesecountries, it is normally appropriate to present a gift to the hostess.

2. Hotlines have become common in Chin Some radio broadcasting stations usehotlines to encourage the listeners to take part in the talk shows.

That''s a good idea Yet, the fact is, somepeople do nothing but break the whole programme. Some people know little aboutthe topic under discussion. Sometimes they do not even know what the host ( 主持人 ) is talking about. So the host has to tell the caller what theshow is about. Usually the caller will ask a few questions which express hopeand show his ignorance ( 无知 }.Then the host has to answer and explain —— how silly this is! It wastes a lot of time.

It seems that some people phone thehotlines in fun. They just want to let the listeners hear them. They don''tcare what the topic is, whether they themselves are interested in or how sillythey appear to be.

I think that it''s necessary for radio stations toimprove the hotline programmes. In my opinion, if a caller doesn''t know whatis going on, the operator should not let the callers take part in it(1). The sentence "some people do nothing but break thewhole programmes" may tell us that ( )

D.

because a lot of questions are raised by the caller

A. that some listeners phone the hotline in fun

3. There has been a great deal of research into the art of negotiation, and, inparticular, into what makes a “good negotiator”.

One point most researchers seem to agree onis that good negotiators try to create a harmonious atmosphere at the start ofa negotiation. They make an effort to establish a good rapport with theiropposite member, so that there will be a willingness — on both sides — to makeconcessions, if this should prove necessary.

Good negotiators generally wish to reach anagreement which meets the interests of both sides. They therefore tend to takea long-term view, ensuring that the agreement will improve, at least not harm,their relationship with the other party. On the other hand, a poor negotiatortends to look for immediate gains, forgetting that the real benefits of a dealmay come much later.

Skillful negotiators are flexible. They donot “lock themselves” into a position so that they will lose face if they haveto compromise. They have a range of objectives, thus allowing themselves tomake concessions, for example, “I aim to buy this machine for £2 000” and not “I must buy it for £2 000”. Poor negotiators have limitedobjectives, and may not even work out a “fall-back position”.

Successful negotiators do not want anegotiation to break down. If problems arise, they suggest ways of resolvingthem. The best negotiators are persuasive, eloquent people, who select a fewkey arguments and repeat them.

Finally, it is essential to be a good listener and tocheck frequently that everything has been understood by both parties.(1). The best title for the passage is ( )
A. Benefits on Both Sides
B.

Art of Negotiation
C.

Skills of Communication
D.

A. we will take a long term view in the negotiation
B.

we will pay more attention to the benefitson both sides
C.

we will try much harder to improve theagreement
D.

we will try to change the relationship with the otherparty
(4). Many poor negotiators may not make any concession for themselves in that( ).
A. they are afraid of losing face
B.

they have no clear objectives
C.

they are not flexible
D.
