Over a 10-year period, Jones had managed to cheat thousands of people throughout the state out of almost $10 million.He advertised his fantastic ideas on TV. “For some reason,” Jones said, “TV seems to break the ice. Even though you are a total stranger to the viewer, once he sees you on TV in his home, he feels like he knows you. You enter his living room and become a trusted friend.”Jones had an imagination that wouldn‟t quit. One time he showed viewers an “official government” earthquake report which “proved” that the western half of California would collapse into the sea within three years. For $100, he said, Jones would insure your house and property for full value. Thousands of people who saw that TV ad sent him a hundred dollars each.In another TV ad, Jones claimed that he had come to an agreement with the federal and state government for exclusive(独享的) air rights. He told viewers that, for only $100, they could own the first 10 miles above all their property. You would be able to charge any commercial plane that flew over your property $100 per crossing. You would also be able to charge government rockets, satellites, space shuttles, and space stations $100 for each and every violation of your air rights.Another time, Jones claimed to have invented a product that gets rid of calories. He showed the viewers a spray can of “NoCal.” He said that by simply spraying NoCal on your food, a chemical interaction would cause all the calories in the food to simply disappear within about 10 seconds. The NoCal was only $10 a can. As usual, Jones received thousands of checks in the mail.The judge told Jones that he should be ashamed of himself. Jones responded that he was very ashamed of himself, and that when he got out of prison he hoped to become a TV adviser to help people avoid getting cheated. He told the judge that he was already developing an instructional CD that, for merely $100, would save people thousands of dollars in scams(骗局). The judge nodded, and then changed Jones‟ sentence from 10 years to 12 years.31. According to Jones, he could successfully cheat many people mainly because _______.A. he promised them a large profitB. they were too eager to make moneyC. they believed too much in TV adsD. he was skillful in communicating with people32. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Jones felt guilty and was determined to lead a new life.B. Jones was closely related to the state government.C. Western California was in danger of going under the sea.D. Jones showed unusual imagination in his tricks.33. We can infer that people who wanted to buy “NoCal” from Jones _______.A. were mainly from low income familiesB. all had a rich knowledge of chemistryC. were probably interested in losing weightD. usually did the shopping through the Internet34. The judge changed the sentence at last because _______.A. Jones was planning another big scamB. he could hardly believe what Jones had told himC. Jones had cheated more people than he expectedD. he had suffered from Jones‟ scams himselfBIf you want to help children develop language and speech skills, UCLA researchers say, listening to what they have to say is just as important as talking to them.The effect of a conversation between a child and an adult is about six times as great as the effect of adult speech input alone, the researchers found. “Adults speaking to children helps language develop, but what matters much more is the interaction,” said the study‟s lead author, Frederick Zimmerman, an associate professor in the School of Public Health at the University of California, Los Angeles. The researchers also found that TV viewing didn‟t have much of an effect —positively or negatively—as long as it wasn‟t displacing conversations between an adult and a child.The UCLA study included 275 families with children between 2 months and 48 months old. They represented a variety of incomes and education. The researchers found that, in an average day, children hear about 13,000 spoken words from adults and participated in about 400 adult-child conversations a day.Assessed separately, factors positively associated with language development included each additional 100 conversations a day and each 1,000 word increase in the number of words spoken by adults and heard by children. When looked at alone, TV was negatively associated with language development. But, when the three factors were analyzed together, the only one that stood out was conversation between adults and children.“The more a child speaks and interacts with an adult, the better idea a parent has about where the child is,”Zimmerman said. “Although it‟s mostly done unconsciously, parents will provide feedback and correct mistakes. They‟ll also tailor their speech to the child. Parents can give a child words by talking to them about what they‟re doing, such as, …I‟m putting on your pajamas now‟. But give your child the opportunity to talk, hopefully without the rest of the noise in the environment,” she added. “If parents can carve out some conversation time—maybe at bath time or at dinner time—that‟s a wonderful thing.”35. The researchers also found that TV viewing _______.A. had a positive effect on a child‟s language developmentB. had not much of effect on a child‟s language developmentC. affected a child‟s language development negativelyD. was displacing conversations between an adult and a child36. Frederick Zimmerman would probably agree that _______.A. parents should let their children talk most of the timeB. children should watch TV programs selectivelyC. the conversation between parents and children should be two-wayD. it‟s no good for parents correcting their children‟s mistakes when they are speaking37. We can conclude from the last paragraph that _______.A. parents should leave a child talking aloneB. parent-child conversation can be carried out at any proper timeC. parents should let a child repeat what he or she saysD. bath time or dinner time is the best chance for parents to talk to a child38. The underlined word “tailor” in the last paragraph can be best replaced by _______.A. controlB. improveC. passD. adjust四、任务型阅读No one comes to work for free except when you are volunteering for a worthy cause. But the paycheck is just one of the many rewards companies use to employ and keep workers. A satisfied employee produces good work, which in turn creates satisfied customers. So aside from a quality working environment, what rewards can a company provide? Many people work a “professional day.” Your salary is fixed no matter how ma ny extra hours or weekends you work.So, right off the bat then, the primary reward is a good salary. An employee must feel they get paid at the proper market value for their skill. Once settled, though, companies should continue giving rewards throughout the year.Let‟s start off with a simple “thank you”. When a team member completes a task, no matter how small, just send a simple thank-you e-mail. At a higher level is a congratulatory e-mail. After your team has successfully completed a project, you can send a note to the team, including your customers, congratulating them on their excellent job. Going further up the appreciation ladder, if your team member has worked long hours, and given up precious evenings with their family, a thank-you note is almost necessary in this case. Extra effort on the job should always be appreciated and never taken for granted.On a more practical level, a gift-giving program has worked well for many companies. A program like this works like rewards you might earn on your credit card. For example, you can give a peer 5 points for a good performance or a manager can reward 40 points to a team member for a particular long effort or successful project. Points are accumulated by the employee and can be changed for any number of gifts. While not quite over-time pay, employees appreciate the extra little bit of compensation.A celebratory lunch or dinner is a nice reward as well. It also serves as an opportunity for team building. A celebratory meal paid by the company can be awarded for work-related events, such as a successful completion of a project, a service anniversary, or a year-end party. Other celebratory meals can also be taken for non-company related events such as a birthday, a marriage engagement or a birth of a new child.Not usually considered a reward, a company-sponsored trip to an industry conference is a nice reward as well. This is a reward in that you can take time away from the office, you can learn about the latest industry trends and practices and also meet people from other companies in your similar line of business. Unlike a standard business trip, there are long meetings, various notes or trip reports to provide.The last bit of motivation is not a company reward but a personal one, the holiday gift. Employees should be aware of any rules regarding the giving of gifts. There might be limits, for example, on the value of such gifts. Usually a manager will give individual gifts to team members as a signal of appreciation. In contrast, team members might want to get together and give the manager a single gift. If team members give individual gifts to a manager, team members will start competing as to who gives the “best” gift to the manager. So there you have it to make the work place just a lit tle more “rewarding”.To (1)________ Employees to Work Efficiently高三英语课堂练习（七十二）答案1-10 ABADC BBDDB11-30ACBBC DDABD CACDA ABCDB31-38 CDCA BCBD1.
