16、 can take. If you are quiet, people think you agree. How can you then further the conversation when you are at different points and its not really exposed? Agreeing is easy. Disagreeing takes more guts.Several years back, when I was CEO at a company; there was a very senior woman who was very smart

17、and well spoken, but she did not wear appropriate clothes. It was distracting and she was not being taken seriously. I said to her manager, who was male, “you need to tell her.” he said, “oh, no way.”So I called her in and directly stated what I thought was happening, “youre not getting the respect

18、you deserve,” I said, “go to the store and get a personal shopper. Just say, I am a senior businessperson and need help dressing formally.” She came back, and she was completely a different person. She said she felt really good. And currency went way up.Early in my business career, if people asked m

19、e a question, Id try to answer it honestly. And it was rewarded. I had managers who wanted me around because I would actually tell them what was happening.I was raised by my grandma, and she was a pretty straight talker because she thought you would handle it.

23、tance of speechPassage 2A punctual person is in the habit of doing a thing at the proper time and is never late in keeping an appointment.The unpunctual man, on the contrary, never does what he has to do at the proper time. He is always in a hurry and in the end loses both time and his good name. A

24、lost thing may be found again, but the lost time can never be regained. Time is more valuable than material things. In fact, time is life itself. The unpunctual man is forever wasting and mismanaging his most valuable asset（财产）as well as others. The unpunctual person is always complaining that he fi

25、nds no time toanswer letters, return calls or keep appointments promptly. But the man who really has a great deal to do is very careful of his time and seldom complains of want of it. He knows that he can not get through his huge amount of work unless he faithfully keeps every piece of work when it

26、has to be attended to.Failure to be punctual in keeping ones appointments is the sign of disrespect towards others. If a person is invited to dinner and arrives later than the appointed time, he keeps all the other guests waiting for him. Usually this will be regarded as a great disrespect to the ho

27、st and all other guests present.Unpunctuality, moreover, is very harmful when it comes to do ones duty, whether public or private. Imagine how it would be if those who are put in charge of important tasks failed to be their proper place at the appointed time. A man who is known to be habitually unpu

28、nctual is never trusted by his friends or fellow men.36.

For the past 20 years, they had been on good terms farming side by side, sharing machinery, and trading labor and goods as needed. The

33、 dispute began with a small misunderstanding and grew into a major difference, and finally exploded into an exchange of bitter words followed by weeks of silence.One morning there was a knock on Jacks door. It was a carpenter looking for a few days work. Jack offered him a job saying, “Look across t

34、he steam at that farm. Thats my neighbor, in fact, its my younger brother. There used to be a meadow between us. Last week he pulled down the dam on the small river and now there is a stream instead. Well, he may have done this to offend me, but Ill do him one better.”“See that pile of lumber (木材) b

35、y the house? I want you to build me a fencean 8-footfence.” The carpenter said, “I think I understood the situation. Show me the nails and the post-hole digger (打桩机) and Ill be able to do a job that please you.”Jack had to go into town, so he helped the carpenter get the material ready and then he w

36、as off for the day. The carpenter worked hard all that day measuring, sawing and nailing. About sunset when Jack returned, the carpenter had just finished his job.Jacks eyes opened wide, his jaw dropped. There was no fence there at all. It was a bridgeabridge stretching from one side of the stream t

37、o the other! A fine piece of work! His younger brother was coming toward them with hands outstretched. “You are quite a fellow to build this bridge after all Ive said and done.” The two brothers stood at each end of the bridge, and then they met in the middle, taking each others hand.They turned to

38、see the carpenter lift his toolbox onto his shoulder. “No, wait!

41、h.Passage 4Batteries can power anything from small sensors to large systems. While scientists are finding ways to make them smaller but even more powerful, problems can arise when these batteries are much larger and heavier than the devices themselves. The researchers at university of Missouri (MU)

42、are developing a nuclear energy source that is smaller, lighter and more efficient.“To provide enough power, we need certain methods with high energy density (密度) ,” saidJac kwon, assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering at MU. “The radioisotope (放射性同位素) battery can provide power d

43、ensity that is much higher than chemical batteries.”Kwon and his research team have been working on building a small nuclear battery, presently the size and thickness of a penny, intended to power various systems. Although nuclear batteries can cause concerns, Kwon said they are safe.“People hear th

44、e word nuclear and think of something very dangerous.” he said. “however nuclear power sources have already been safely powering a variety of devices, such as pace-makers, space satellites and underwater systems.”His new idea is not only in the batterys size, but also in its semiconductor. Kwons bat

45、teryuses a liquid semiconductor rather than a solid semiconductor.“The key part of using a radioactive battery is that when you harvest the energy, part of the radiation energy can damage the lattice structure（晶体结构）of the solid semiconductor,” Kwon said, “by using a liquid semiconductor, we believe

46、we can minimize that problem.”Together with J.David Robertson, chemistry professor and associate director of the MU Research Reactor, Kwon is working to build and test the battery. In the future, they hope to increase the batterys power, shrink its size and try with various other materials. Kwon sai

47、d their battery could be thinner than the thickness of human hair.46. The passage gets started by .A. an introductionB. an exampleC. a questionD. a conclusion47. What do you know about Jae Kwon？A.
