Have you ever tried to make an apology, only to be refused? It may be that you were offering partial apology in a “language” that was foreign to your listener. The five languages of apology include: Apology Language 1: “I am sorry.” List the hurtful effects of your action. NOT “I am sorry if…”, but “I am sorry that…”. You might ask if they want to add any points that you have not recognized. Apology Language 2: “I was wrong.” Name your mistake and accept your fault. Note that it is easier to say “You are right. ” than “ I am wrong.”, but the latter carries more weight. Apology Language 3: “What can I do to make it right?” How are you now? How shall I make amends for my mistake? How can I RESTORE YOUR CONFIDENCE that I love you even though I was so hurtful to you? Apology Language 4: “I will try not to do that again.” Engage in problem-solving. Do not make excuses for yourself such as: “Well, my day has just been so …” Instead, offer what you will change to prevent yourself putting them in the same bad situation again. Apology Language 5: “Will you please forgive me?” Be patient in seeking forgiveness. They may need some time or greater clarification of your input from Apology Languages 1-4. Finally, your apology may not be accepted, but at least you know that you have been faithful in offering a sincere olive branch of peace. 49. According to the 1st paragraph, your apology may be refused mainly because ________. A. your apology is not made loudly enough B. your apology is not expressed well enough C. your listeners can’t hear what you said clearly D. your listeners can’t understand your language well 50. According to the author, which of the following expressions would be the LEAST acceptable while making an apology? A. I am wrong. B. I am sorry that I hurt you. C. I will try not to do that again. D. Well, my day has just been so upsetting. 51. What does the underlined phrase “make amends” (Paragraph 4) refer to? A. make improvement B. make mistakes C. make up for wrongdoing D. make up a conversation 52. What is the BEST title of the passage? A. Tips for effective apologies B. Ways of refusing apologies C. List of apology expressions D. Importance of apology languages

In 2007, the first solar electric boat crossed the Atlantic Ocean. Now a Swiss group wants to cover that distance and keep going, circling the globe on nothing but the sun’s power for the first time. The team of engineers and scientists has started the building of its 98-foot long boat, named Planet Solar, in Kiel Germany. The boat’s power will come from the 5,000 square feet of solar panels（电池板）, about the size of two tennis courts, covering its broad deck. When the sun is shining bright above, they will turn 23 percent of the sun’s rays to energy — six percent more than average solar panels. Even though batteries aboard Planet Solar can store enough energy to power it through up to three days of cloudy weather, the sailors will try to avoid clouds: constant communication with the French meteorological institute, Meteo France, will help the sailors stay with the sunny course. The $11.5 million project, which is led by Raphael Domjan, should be ready for its first voyage next summer. The solar electric boat will warm up in European waters, and attempt to deal with traveling around the globe in spring 2011. At a maximum speed of 16 mph, Planet Solar will be the fastest solar electric boat. The team expects to finish the first leg of its journey across the Atlantic in about two weeks, compared to the six months the solar boat took back in 2007. If sailing by sun becomes practical, it would be a return to the green boating methods of the days of Christopher Columbus. Those long-ago voyages relied only on a different type of renewable energy: wind. And, if wind-powered sails could be combined with solar panels, we might really pick up the boating speed. 57. Which of the following is NOT true about Planet Solar? A. Its deck is covered by solar panels. B. It will be the fastest solar electric boat. C. It is 98-foot long and is to be made in Germany. D. It can turn 17 percent of the sun’s rays into energy. 58. Planet Solar will be likely to __________ in continuous rainy weather. A. continue traveling forward B. ask the local weather station for help C. stop to wait for the weather to clear up D. turn to Meteo France for help to choose the sunny course 59. What can be inferred from the passage? A. Sailing by solar energy has not been widely used in today’s green boating. B. Planet Solar will be the first boat to circle the globe using solar energy in 2011. C. The solar panels in Planet Solar can turn more sunlight to energy than average ones. D. Batteries aboard Planet Solar can be consumed for at most three days of cloudy weather. 60. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Planet Solar uses solar energy all over the world. B. Planet Solar aims to be the first to circle the globe. C. Planet Solar collects a different kind of renewable energy. D. Planet Solar combines traditional methods with modern technology.

A frightening example of the sea’s power saw 125,000 people die in 12 different countries last week. The terrible disaster was caused when a great earthquake sent tsunamis breaking into Indian Ocean coastlines. Various areas in Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Thailand, India, Malaysia and East Africa have been destroyed by the huge waves. Whole towns were simply swept aside by the power of the water. Cars, trains and buildings could not remain steady, not to say the people who stood in the way. The earthquake measured 9.0 on the Richter scale and occurred off the coast of Indonesia. It was recorded as the fifth strongest since 1900. Scientists said the quake was as powerful as a million of the atomic bombs that were dropped on Japan during the World War II. “This may be the worst natural disaster in recent history because it is affecting so many heavily populated coastal areas.” said Jan Ege-land, a UN official. Because such waves hardly happen in the Indian Ocean, there is no system in place to warn coastal people who are about to be hit. Tsunami is a Japanese word. They are usually caused by a sudden rise or fall of part of the Earth’s crust under the ocean. Tsunamis often happen in oceans and they are most common in the Pacific. Tsunamis can be very long, as much as 100 kilometers. They are able to cross entire oceans without losing much energy. One of the most striking facts about tsunamis is that an earthquake on one side of the Pacific Ocean can cause huge waves on the other side. When the ocean is deep, tsunamis can travel unnoticed at speeds of up to 800 kilometers per hour. They can cross the entire ocean in a day or less. The wave may only be a few meters high in the ocean, but when it is near the shore and reaches shallow water, the wave builds up very quickly in height. 61. How many countries were stricken by the terrible disaster? A. 6. B. 12. C. 18. D. Not sure. 62. All of the following statements are true EXCEPT __________. Tsunami is a word taken in from Japanese Tsunamis are quite common in the Indian Ocean The earthquake measured 9.0 on the Richter scale No warning system has been set up to watch tsunamis there 63. We can know from this passage that __________. the earthquake has been the strongest in the last century the wave soon becomes higher when it reaches the shore the atomic bombs were more powerful than the earthquake tsunamis can cross entire oceans with almost the same energy 64. You’ll see the passage in __________ section of a newspaper most probably. A. Sports B. Health C. News D. Culture

In a classroom in any country, the teacher teaches more than art or history or language. 65 In a society such as the United States, people with different history, culture and language join together and they highly value individualism. 66 Teachers try to make each student special. Students do not have to memorize a lot of information; instead, they work individually and find answers by themselves. There is often discussion in the classroom. At an early age students learn to form their own ideas and opinions. Their education encourages personal thought. The importance is placed on how to arrive at an answer rather than simply to get the correct answer. In most Asian countries, people have the same language, history, and culture. 67 Children in China and Japan often work together and help each other with homework. In the classroom, the teaching methods are often very traditional. There is not much discussion. Instead, the students repeat rules of information that they have been taught in order to keep them in mind. 68 In western countries teachers are taught to educate students. They make it easier for the students to learn for themselves. In eastern countries, however, teachers often feel that their task is to pass knowledge to students, or the students can’t learn anything. 根据短文内容，从A、B、 C、D和E中选出最适合放入短文空缺处的选项。选项中有一项是多余的。 A. In many ways these differences come from different educational psychology. B. Their education, as part of the society, also values this greatly. C. Some countries value both individualism and teamwork. D. Perhaps for this reason, the education there shows society’s value in group goals and purposes rather than individualism. E. He or she teaches what is known as the “hidden course” — the culture of that country.
