With 58 million daily customers worldwide, McDonald's is now so ubiquitous around the globe that The Economist publishes a global ranking of currencies' purchasing power based on the prices charged at the local McDonald's, called the Big Mac Index(巨无霸指数).That's not to say that every nation carries the same menu items: choices vary widely depending on location. Some Asian locations serve fried shrimp in a Big Mac roll, while McDonald's in India doesn't serve beef at all, relying instead on burgers made from vegetables, rice and beans. Not everyone in the world has been happy to greet Ronald McDonald when he moves to town. Many see McDonald's as a symbol of American economic and cultural chauvinism(沙文主义), and European nations in particular have viewed American-style fast food as an insult to their national food. A French farmer, Jose Bove, became something of a national hero in 1999 after he and a group of people destroyed a McDonald's under construction to protest globalization and “bad food.” The next year, a bomb exploded in a French McDonald's, killing a 27-year-old employee. No one claimed responsibility. But regardless of whether you like their food or their policies, McDonald's is still widely seen as one of the true pioneers of peaceful globalization. 1. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE? 1 A. McDonald's was founded in 1948. B. McDonald's has opened its restaurants in every city of the world. C. McDonald's has over 30,000 locations in the world now. 2. The word ubiquitous in Paragraph 2 is most likely to mean 2 . A. very crowded B. very clean C. existing everywhere 3. From Paragraph 2, we can conclude that 3 . A. McDonald's designs its menu to suit the local people B. millions of young adults got their first job with McDonald's C. the McDonald's menu sticks to old-fashioned favorites such as the Big Mac 4. What did Jose Bove and his people do in 1999 to protest against McDonald's? 4 A. They destroyed a McDonald's under construction. B. They protested outside a McDonald's. C. They refused to go to a newly-built McDonald's. 5. In 5 , an employee died in a fatal bomb attack on a McDonald's restaurant in France. A. 1998 B. 1999 C. 2000 (1).__1__ A.A B.B C.C (2).__2__ A.A B.B C.C (3).__3__ A.A B.B C.C (4).__4__ A.A B.B C.C (5).__5__ A.A B.B C.C 单元自测3(10分) 试卷总分:100 得分:100 一、选择填空,从A、B、C三个选项中选出一个能填入空白处的最佳选项。(每题10分) 1.-Can you go out with us for dinner this evening? -__________.

A.an eighteen-year-old B.an eighteen-years-old C.a eighteen-years-old 二、阅读理解:选择题(每题10分) 6.选择题 It can be really frustrating (使人沮丧的) for an overweight person to go to a gym and work out with a positive attitude. All one has to do is walk by almost any nice gym and notice all the healthy, sweating, “skinny” members. Sometimes they stare at those of us who are, well, zaftig. It is easy to see the judgment behind their eyes. Who wants to put up with that? Many people are self-conscious of their bodies and feel isolated when joining workout classes of while exercising, especially if they are larger than most of the others in the group. Now the fitness industry is finally paying attention. Popular gyms are catering (迎合) to overweight and weight conscious customers by dedicating areas where the “skinny” people are not allowed. There are even gyms or programs that require members to be at least 50 pounds overweight to participate. Trainers recommend functional fitness as a practical goal, rather than six-pack abs(六块腹肌). They often use text messages to stay in touch with customers. Often at these specialized gyms, the trainers are overweight themselves, or working on their own weight goals, and this can help those people with anxiety caused by poor body image. The equipment has been designed for use by larger people. Wider seats, more cushioning, no mirrors, and tinted (有色的) windows for privacy, are all important changes. Hopefully these types of gyms will successfully grow in numbers in the future. The idea is a very simple and potentially popular one. If it helps those of us who are bigger exercise more and improve our fitness level, it's a step in the right direction. 1. The word zaftig in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to 1 . A. fat B. healthy C. friendly 2. We can infer from the first two paragraphs that 2 . A. most large gym chains really don't want members to show up frequently B. overweight people are often frustrated and pushed away by traditional gym industry C. regular gyms don't accept overweight people to participate in their programs 3. What is the training goal in the gyms catering to overweight members? 3 A. To achieve functional fitness. B. To build six-pack abs. C. To look like a fitness model. 4. As for the gyms catering to overweight members, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE? 4 A. The machines are designed for larger people. B. Tinted windows are used to ensure extra privacy. C. There are large mirrors on the walls. 5. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? 5 A. Improving Women's Self-confidence through Exercises. B. The traditional Gym Industry Is Losing Its Customers. C. Specialized Gyms Designed for Overweight People.

A strong research system E. in part because of this Education and academic quality can mean different things to different people, depending on their perspective, role and context and, 1 , quality is notoriously difficult to evaluate. The question of how to do this has been pursued for many years. Nevertheless, the goal of improving educational quality is agreed by all and stimulated further by the recent worldwide economic downturn and the need to counteract the impact of? 2 and prepare for economic recovery. As the World Bank and UNESCO said 10 years ago: “The quality of knowledge generated within higher education institutions, and its availability to the wider economy, is becoming increasingly critical to national competitiveness.” They also rightly emphasized that “ 3 at the national level opens up the possibility that substantial additional public benefits can be realized through international links.” This is precisely why? 4 should contribute to these global benefits, reforming and improving evaluation systems for educational and academic quality. Original and good research, especially in science, economics and social sciences, has a trickle-down effect on society. And it offers additional benefits 5 , though international collaboration and exchange of the best evaluation policy and practice can bring substantial advantages to all partners in relation to lessons learned elsewhere.

Intercultural communication D. Fostering respect E. Avoiding conflicts Para 1? 1 Intercultural communication refers to messages transmitted between members of two or more different societies. Effective intercultural communication helps firms avoid conflict, prevent misunderstandings, and foster respect. Para 2? 2 The workplace is growing more diverse every day. Managers cannot assume that what they find inoffensive will also be inoffensive to their subordinates. A lack of sensitivity can lead to claims of discrimination or harassment, which costs firms big money. Intercultural communication involves exercising sensitivity and tact to avoid such conflicts. Para 3? 3 We human beings have developed language to communicate ideas to one another. Still, our language represents an imperfect form of communication. Sometimes, words cannot accurately convey an idea, because the information might be highly complex. Also, a concept that exists in one culture or language might not be part of another. Effective intercultural communication tries to bridge language gaps as effectively as possible so that everyone at the workplace finds themselves on the same page. Para 4? 4 Given the inexactitude of language, misunderstandings can frequently arise between people from different cultures when they exchange information. Idioms often become lost in translation. For example, the English expression “to shoulder responsibility” translates into Swedish as “be a man for your hat”. Intercultural communication does not rely on expressions native to a particular language that could lead to confusion; rather, it relies on clear messages that all parties understand. Para 5? 5 Communication happens differently in various cultures. What one society finds acceptable may be anathema?to another. When coworkers from different cultures do not take these differences into account, not only does communication suffer but conflicts come to the fore. Effective intercultural communication does not try to ignore societal differences; rather, it respects the variations among the human race and enables people to transmit information clearly.

Social work has its roots in charity, as it originally began around the time of the industrial revolution when there were many poor people and society was seeking a way of dealing with the poor and social problems. Although social work began as charity work, it has expanded a lot and needs to be seen from a completely different perspective. Modern-day social work deals not only with poverty and the subsequent problems, but also with the problems arising from various types of “social fear” (“social phobias”) and discrimination such as sexism, racism, and discrimination against an individual due to his age, or mental or physical disabilities. Social workers deal with the consequences of these discriminations as well as consequences that arise from sexual abuse, drug abuse, and various other problems. Social work provides an important service to society. Individuals and families in need of help are the focus of it, and are re ferred to as clients. Social workers help clients live a productive life in their own community. In order to reach this goal, they often enlist the assistance of family members, relatives, local religious leaders, and other influential members of the community. Although institutionalization may be necessary at times, it is a temporary solution. Social workers usually serve in the front line, and reach out to the clients soon after problems occur. The goal is to help clients return to normal life in a natural setting. 1. The charity originally means to 1 . A. help the poor that makes the rich feel good. B. help clients return to normal life. C. serve the whole society. 2. When does social work begin? 2 A. around the time of the industrial revolution B. Biblical times C. modern time 3. Modern-day social work deals with the following problems except 3 ? A. poverty B. racism C. education 4. In order to help clients live a productive life, social workers can turn to the assistance of 4 . A. government B. family members C. businessmen 5. Which statement about social work is NOT True? 5 A. Social work roots from charity. B. Social work deals not only with poverty and the subsequent problems, but also with various social fear and discrimination. C. Social work is that the rich people want to help the poor people.

About 95 percent of lawyers still perform their legal work on an hourly basis. If you want something better than the old “bill by the hour” deal, try presenting one of these billing structures. Project billing for routine issues If your legal needs include large but repetitive tasks, consider a flat-fee approach. Once you get a project billing estimate, don't hesitate to shop around to compare prices and services with other law firms. A firm may provide a better deal if it expects future work from your company. Results-oriented options “Pay-according-to-success” is one choice. It considers fees based on the outcome of the case and the performance of your counsel. Contingency fees turn the matter into a shared risk or shared encouragement, making the law firm your business partner, not just representation. Multi-layered tasks If you're shopping for a firm for actual legal work involving a number of legal specialties, consider using blended hourly fees. The firm calculates in advance an “average” rate based on the anticipated time each lawyer spends on the matter. This arrangement helps the client to avoid paying a senior partner's hourly rate for research that should be conducted by a junior associate. Legal “Insurance” The contract fee allows the client to pick up the phone and talk to the lawyer without needing to eye the clock. This approach works like a legal insurance policy. It encourages companies to contact their counsel on non-litigation, non-crisis matters, and to save money in the long run by engaging in more preventive legal action. ? 1. 1 is the best way to be charged for legal services. A. Results-oriented billing B. Hourly billing C. Flat-fee billing 2. A flat-fee approach 2 . A. is suitable for repetitive tasks B. is useless C. is the best choice. 3. 3 make the law firm share your risk and encouragement. A. Contract fees B. Blended hourly fees C. Contingency fees 4.
