[单项选择] Questions 62 to 66 are based on the following passage.
To say that the child learns by imitation and that the way to teach is to set a good example is a bit oversimplified. No child imitates every action he sees. Sometimes, the example the parent wants him to follow is ignored while he takes over contrary patterns from some other ’ example. Therefore we must turn to a more subtle theory than "Monkey see, monkey do".
Look at it from the child’s point of view. Here he is in a new situation, lacking a ready response. He is seeking a response which will gain certain ends. If he lacks a ready response for the situation, and cannot reason out what to do, he observes a model who seems able to get the right result. The child looks for an authority or expert who can show what to do.
There is a second element at work in this situation. The child may be able to attain his immediate goal only to find that his method brings criticism from people who observe him. When
A. behave properly
B. attain his goal as soon as possible
C. show his affection for his parents
D. talk quietly

[填空题] Questions 47 to 51 are based on the following passage.
Japanese firms have achieved the highest levels of manufacturing efficiency in the world auto mobile industry. Some observers of Japan have assumed that Japanese firms use the same manufacturing equipment and techniques as United States firms but have benefited from the unique characteristics of Japanese employees and the Japanese culture. However, if this were true, then one would expect Japanese auto plants in the United States to perform no better than factories run by United States companies. This is not the case. Japanese-run automobile plants located in the United States and staffed by local workers have demonstrated higher levels of productivity when compared with factories owned by United States companies.

In 1964, the world coined a new word, Beatle-mania. That year the world was introduced to four Englishmen named John, Paul, George, and Ringo. For the next eight years, these four were the number one musical group. Each new album that appeared was a success, but the 1967 album called Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band was a milestone. It indicated a turning point in their music.
The music of the Beatles from 1964 to 1967 dealt with traditional love themes. All their songs from 1964 tell of happy meetings between boy and girl, the beginning of love.
