Owing to the work that has gone into developing intelligent materials, this may not be as 41 as it sounds. Self-cleaning clothes have now been created, and these new materials provide 42 resistance to dirt as well as water. As a result, they require much less cleaning than traditional materials.‎ The creation of self-cleaning clothes provides an example of how nature helps scientists develop better products. This self-cleaning nature is known as the “lotus effect”. The name comes, of course, from the lotus leaves, which are famous for growing in muddy lakes and rivers while remaining almost 43 ‎ clean. By observing nature, scientists are 44 the qualities of the lotus leaves to the materials they have engineered. Because of this, some remarkable new products have been 45 . Among them are special windows that are resistant to dirt and water. A special 46 on these windows not only prevents dirt from sticking to their surfaces, but also allows dust to be easily washed off by the rain. In fact, these new windows have already been 47 to some cars. Even when traveling at high speed through rain, these cars never have to use their windshield wipers (雨刮器).‎ Although we have already seen some practical applications, even more dramatic 48 will be made in the future, and they will, perhaps, change our world completely. Undoubtedly, technology is an important development, and it will have an even bigger 49 on our lives.‎ III.

It sounds simple and achievable. But, 50 , words of wisdom are soon forgotten. Once companies have attracted customers they often 51 the second half of the story. In the excitement of beating off the competition, negotiating prices, securing orders, and delivering the product, managers tend to become carried away. They forget what they regard as the boring side of business— 52 that the customer remains a customer.‎ ‎ 53 to concentrate on retaining as well as attracting customers costs business huge amounts of money annually. It has been estimated that the average company loses between 10 and 30 per cent of its customers every years. In constantly changing 54 , this is not surprising. What is surprising is the fact that few companies have any idea how many customers they have lost.‎ Only now are organizations beginning to wake up to those lost opportunities and calculate the 55 ‎ implications. Cutting down the number of customers a company loses can make a big ‎56 in its performance. Research in the US found that a five per cent decrease in the number of defecting (流失的) customers led to 57 increases of between 25 and 85 per cent.‎ In the US, Domino’s Pizza estimates that a regular customer is worth more than $5,000 over ten years. A customer who receives a poor quality product or service on their first visit and 58 never returns, is losing the company thousands of dollars in 59 profits (more if you consider how many people they are likely to tell about their bad experience).‎ The logic behind cultivating customer 60 is impossible to deny. “In practice most companies’ marketing effort is focused on getting customers, with little attention paid to 61 them”, says Adrian Payne of Cornfield University’ School of Management. “Research suggests that there is a close ‎ relationship between retaining customers and making profits. 62 customers tend to buy more, are predictable and usually cost less to service than new customers. Furthermore, they tend to be less price 63 , and may provide free word-of-mouth advertising. Retaining customers also makes it 64 for competitors to enter a market or increase their share of a market.‎ 50. A. in particular B. in reality C. at least D. first of all 51.

They believe children _54 _ aggressive adult behavior. This behavior is then further strengthened through both positive and negative feedback.

That is one reason why astronauts on solo (单独的) space flights were given plenty of work to keep them 45 . They were also constant communication with people on the earth. 46 , being with people from whom you cannot get away might be even harder than being alone. This is what happens on long submarine (潜水艇) voyages. It will also happen on 47 space flights in the future. Will there be special problem of adjustment under such conditions?‎ Scientists have studied the reactions of men to one another during long submarine voyages. They have found that the longer the voyage lasts, the more serious the problem of 48 is. When men are 49 together for a long period, they begin to feel uneasy.

As a French graduate who has taught for more than twenty-five years, I believe I have some idea of why the failure is so total. 55 the faults already found out in the education system as a whole — such as child-centred learning, the “discovery” method, and the low expectations by teachers of pupils — there have been several serious 56 which have a direct effect on language teaching.‎ The first is the removal from the curriculum (课程) of the thorough teaching of English 57 . Pupils now do not know a verb from a noun, the subject of a sentence from its object, or the difference between the past, present, or future.‎ Another important error is mixed-ability teaching, or teaching in ability groups so 58 that the most able groups are 59 and are bored while the least able are lost and 60 bored. Strangely enough, few head teachers seem to be in favour of mixed-ability school football teams.‎ Progress depends on memory, and pupils start to forget immediately they stop having 61 lessons. This is why many people who attended French lessons at school, even those who got good grades, have forgotten it a few years later. 62 they never need it, they do not practice it.‎ Most American schools have accepted what is inevitable and 63 modern languages, even Spanish, from the curriculum.

A mother who has not     57      the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins “ Twinkle, twinkle, little star” or recite the story of Cinderella or Snow White.‎ One explanation is the law of over learning, which can be stated as following:     58     we have learned something, additional learning increases the     59      of time we will remember it.‎ In childhood, we usually continue to practise such skills as swimming, bicycle riding long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and     60      ourselves of poems such as “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” and childhood tales such as Cinderella or Snow White. We no only learn but    61     .‎ The law of over learning explains why cramming (突击学习) for an examination,     62    it may result in a passing grade, is not a      63      way to learn a school course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little over learning;    64    , is usually a good investment toward the future.‎ ‎55. A. only         B. hardly       C. still            D. even 56.

European countries, realizing crisis is at hand, are providing great encouragement for parents to create more babies in the 21st century.‎ ‎  Affairs Ministry concluded last year that,    65    cash encouragement, some women just don’t want to be    66      holding the baby. “What we know is that it’s good for the    67    if men and women share the burden of having children,” says Soren Kindlund, family policy adviser at ‎ the Swedish ministry.   68     Swedish parents can take their paid leave as they wish,  men use a mere 12% of it; 60% of fathers do not take even a(n)    69   day off work.    Experts fear that the tendency for women to use most of the parental leave could make employers    70     go give young women the  permanent jobs they need to qualify for paid maternity leave (产假)。In January. Sweden decided to allow new fathers two months’ paid leave, with a warming: use it or     71     it.    Kindlund admits that men are under    72      to stay at work, even though parental pay comes out of the public purse. “It’s not popular among bosses and perhaps with other men in the workplace,” he says. “But it’s good for the father and for the child if they can     73     a relationship.”    In Norway, a(n)    74     policy has worked wonders. 70% of dads in Norway now take parental leave, and the birthrate of 1.85 children per woman is one of the highest in Europe.‎ ‎65.

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context .‎ ‎(A)‎ ‎ Farmers , as we all know , have been having a hard time of it lately , and have turned to new ways of earning income from their land . This involves not only planting new kinds of crops , but some   55      ways of making money, the most unusual of which has got to be sheep racing . Yes , you heard me      56   ! A farmer now holds sheep races on a regular basis , and during the past year over 100, 000 people have    57     to watch the race . “I was passing the farm on my way to the sea for a holiday ,” one punter （赛马经纪人）told me , “ and I thought I’d have a look . I didn’t believe it was serious , to tell you the truth .” According to a regular visitor , betting on sheep is more interesting than betting on horses . “At proper horse races everyone has already studied the form of the horse     58    , and there are clear favourites .     59   nobody has heard anything about these    60     !Most people find it difficult to tell one from another in any case .” I stayed to watch the races , and I must admit that I found it quite     61    .In a usual sheep race , half a dozen sheep race down hill over a course of about half a mile . Food is waiting for them at the other end of the    62     just to give them some encouragement , I ought to add !

Even the simplest business such as buying  a train ticket requires     65    seven or eight of these . Another    66     of our good manners is the queue . New-comers to Britain could be forgiven for thinking that queuing rather than football was the    67     national sport . Finally , of course , motorists generally stop at crossings . But does all this mean that the British should consider themselves more polite than their European neighbours ? I think not .‎ Take forms of address （称呼）for example . The average English person -   68     he happens to work in a hotel or department store -would rather die than call a stranger “Sir” or “Madam” . Yet in some European countries this is the most basic of common address . Our  69  “you” for everyone may appear more democratic , but it means that we are forced to seek out complicated ways to express    70      .I am all  for returning to the use of “thee” and “thou”(Thee and thou are old-fashioned poetic words for “you”); “you” would be     71    for strangers and professional relationships .‎ And of course , the English find touching and other shows of friendship truly terrifying . Have you noticed how the British     72    ever touch ? Personally , I find the Latin habit of shaking hands or a friendly kiss quite charming . Try kissing the average English person , and they will either take two steps backwards in horror ; or, if their escape is     73    ,you will find your lips touching the back of their head .

There’s no ‎51 in getting depressed about it now – it’s no 52 crying over spilt（溢出的）milk. However, there may be some gain in thinking about exactly what happened and why 53 we might be able to draw some conclusions for the future.‎ ‎ One thing we all do now and again is to lose our 54 with a friend or close relative. The odd thing is that we more often display great 55 towards someone we are fond of than towards 56. The explanation may be that we see friends and relatives as a kind of safety net, an opportunity to ‎57 a bit of steam in a safe environment, while the consequences（结果）of ‎58 a stranger could be far more serious.‎ ‎ Being honest is usually thought of as a virtue（美德）and undoubtedly this is the 59.

First – obviously – it must be new. But since TV can react to events so quickly, this is often a problem for 61. They usually respond to it in one of three ways.‎ l By providing 62 detail, comment or background information.‎ l By finding a new 63 on the day’s major stories.‎ l By printing completely different stories which TV doesn’t broadcast.‎ What else? Well – it also has to be 64 some kind of conflict or danger. This is one reason why so much news seems to be 66 news. “ Plane lands safely – no-one hurt” doesn’t sell newspapers. “Plane 67 – 200 feared dead!” does.‎ ‎ Next, there’s human interest. People are interested in other 68 – particularly in the rich, famous and powerful. Stories about the private lives of pop singers, actors, models, politicians, 69, all appear regularly in certain newspapers.‎ ‎ Finally, for many editors, 70 is an important factor, too. They prefer stories about people, places and events which their readers know. That’s why the stories in Tokyo’s newspapers are often very different from the stories printed in Paris, Cairo, New York or Buenos Aires.‎ 11.
