click, followed by silenceit seems like hours before someone comes back on the line - that is, if you dont hang up firstoffice calls are, perhaps, the most difficult and the most important part of a secretarys workthe first impression that a man receives about a business is often through a telephone contacta caller who is left hanging on “hold” will get the feeling that he or she has been forgotten or ignoredif a call is answered rudely, the caller may become angryand if the call is not routed directly to the right person, the caller may feel that he or she is getting the “run-around”.laura needham is a secretary in the executive offices of a large manufacturing companyas a good office secretary, laura knows that all phone calls must be answered without delay and handled efficiently. she knows that a secretary must be pleasant and helpful, no matter how busy she is or what kind of feeding she may be inshe knows she must keep calm if a caller gets impatient or becomes angry; also, of course, she knows she can never allow herself to lose her temper (脾气)if she does not have the information the caller asks for, she must know who does have the informationfinally, she knows that one of her most important responsibilities(责任)is to “screen telephone calls” and to know which calls to refer to her boss, which calls to refer to other people, and which calls to handle herselfa well-handled telephone call will give the caller a good impression of the company he or she is dealing withfor this reason, an office secretary who can handle telephone calls cheerfully, tactfully (老练的), and efficiently is a valuable asset to any organization 63. good secretaries find it to handle office calls well. a. very. boring b. very importantc. quite necessary d. extremely difficult64. the underlined word nmaround here means . a. a flat refusal b. a not-so-warm welcome c . an unpleasant refusal d. an unhelpful response65. in lauras opinion a secretary can

never loses her temper66. this passage is mainly about . a. well-handled telephone calls b. an efficient office secretary called laura needham c. the importance of how office calls are dealt with d. a secretary being a valuable asset to her companyd taste is such a subjective matter that we dont usually conduct preference tests for food. the most you can say about anyones preference, is that its one persons opinion. but because the two big cola companiescoca-cola and pepsi cola- are marketed so aggressively, weve wondered how big a role taste preference actually plays in brand loyalty. we set up a taste test that challenged people who identified themselves as either coca-cola or pepsi fans: find your brand in a blind tasting.we invited staff volunteers who had a strong liking for either coca-cola classic (传统型) or pepsi, diet (低糖的) coke, or diet pepsi. these were people who thought theyd have no trouble telling their brand from the other brand.we eventually located 19 regular cola drinkers and 27 diet cola drinkers. then we fed them four unidentified samples of cola one at a time, regular colas for the one group, diet versions for the other. we asked them to tell us whether each sample was coke or pepsi; then we analyzed the records statistically to compare the participants choices with what mere guess-work could have accomplished.getting all four samples right was a tough test, but not too tough, we thought, for people who believed they could recognize their brand. in the end, only 7 out of 19 regular cola drinkers correctly identified their brand of choice in all four trials. the diet-cola drinkers did a little worse-only 7 of 27 identified all four samples correctly.both groups did better than chance would predict,but nearly half the participants in each group made the wrong choice two or more times. two people go all four samples wrong. overall, half the participants did about as well on the last round of tasting as on the first, so tiredness, or taste burnout, was not a factor. our preference test results suggest that only a few pepsi participants and coke fans may really be able to tell their favorite brand by taste and price.67.according to the passage the preference test was conducted in order to _.a.show that a persons opinion about taste is mere guessworkb.compare the ability of the participants in choosing their drinks（a）c. find out the role taste preference plays in a persons drinkingd.reveal which cola is more to the liking of the drinkers68.the statistics recorded in the preference tests show that_.a. there is not much difference in taste between coca-cola and pepsib. few people had trouble telling coca-cola from pepsic. peoples tastes differ from one anotherd. coca-cola and pepsi are peoples two most favorite drinks69.it is implied in the first paragraph that _. a. the competition between the two colas is very strongb. blind tasting is necessary for identifying fansc. the purpose of taste tests is to promote the sale of colasd. the improvement of quality is the chief concern of the two cola companies70.the authors purpose in writing this passage is to _.a. emphasize that taste and price are closely related to each otherb. recommend that blind tasting be introduced in the quality control of colasc. show that taste preference is highly subjectived. argue that taste testing is an important
