Although there are differences between religious Taoist ideas and philosophic Taoist ideas

听力原文： During the Christmas shopping rush in London，the intriguing story was reported of a tramp who，apparently through no fault of his own，found himself locked in a well-known chain store late on Christmas Eve．No doubt the store was filled with last-minute Christmas shoppers and the staff were dead beating and longing to get home．Presumably all the proper security checks were made before the store was locked and they left to enjoy the three-day holiday untroubled by customers desperate to get last-minute Christmas presents．

However that may be，our tramp found himself alone in the store and decided to make the best of it．There was food，drink，bedding and camping equipment，of which he made good use．There must also have been television sets and radios．Though it was not reported if he took advantage of these facilities，when the shop re-opened．he was discovered in bed with a large number of empty bottles beside him．He seems to have been a man of good humour and philosophic temperament—as indeed vagrants very commonly are．Everyone else was enjoying Christmas，so he saw no good reason why he should not do the same．He submitted，cheerfully enough，to being taken away by the police．Perhaps he had a better Christmas than usual．He was put into prison for seven days．The judge awarded no compensation to the chain store for the food and drink our tramp had consumed．They had，in his opinion，already received valuable free publicity from the coverage the story received in the newspapers and on television．Perhaps the judge had a good Christmas too．

The tramp was locked in the store ______.

A．for his own mistakes

B．due to a misunderstanding

C．by accident

D．through an error of judgment

Refer to the exhibit. Currently the two eBGP links between AS100 and AS200 have an average inbound load of 65% and 20% respectively. After further investigation, traffic to 10.10.1.16/28 accounts for 45%, and t raffic to 10.10.1.32/28 and to 10.10.1.48/28 each account for 20% of the inbound load. The BGP attributes are currently set at their default values in both autonomous systems. If you want to influence how AS200 sends traffic to AS100, which eBGP configu rations would you configure in AS100 to influence AS200 to use the eBGP links more evenly?（）

A. neighbor 192.168.30.2 route - map as_50 out

B. neighbor 192.168.20.2 route - map as_50 out

C. route - map as_50 permit 10 match ip address 50 set metric 150 a ccess - list 50 permit 10.10.1.16 0.0.0.240

D. route - map as_50 permit 10 match ip address 50 set metric 150 access - list 50 permit 10.10.1.32 0.0.0.240

Although there are body languages that can cross cultural boundaries, culture is still a significant factor in all body languages. This is particular true of personal space needs.

Donald Keene notes the fact that in the Japanese language there is no word for privacy. To the Japanese, privacy exists in terms of his house. He considers this area as his own ,and he dislikes invasions of it.

Dr. Hall sees this as a reflection of the Japanese concept of space. Westerners, he believed, see space as the distance between objects; to them, space is empty. The Japanese, on the other hand, see space as having as much meaning as their flower arrangement and art.

In public the Arabs are crowded together. In privacy, they prefer a great deal of space. The traditional or wealthy Arab house is large and empty, with family often crowded together in one small area of it. The Arabs do not like to be alone, and even in their spacious houses they will huddle together.

The Arabs like to touch his companion. To deny a friend one's breath is to feel ashamed. The Japanese, in their closeness, preserve a formality and cool dignity.

Along with this closeness, there is a pushing and shoving in the Arab world that many Westerners find uncomfortable, even unpleasant. To an American, for example, there are personal boundaries even in a public place. When he is waiting in line, he believes that his place there is his alone, and may not be invaded by another. The Arab has no concept of privacy in a public place, and if he can push his way into a line, he feels perfectly within his rights to do so.

Hall points out that an Arab needs at times to be alone. To do this, he simply cuts off the lines of communication. He retreats into himself, mentally and spiritually, and this withdrawal is respected by his companions. If an American were with an Arab who withdrew in this way, he would regard it as impolite, as lack of respect, even as an insult.

We can learn from the passage that ______.

A．Japanese society is very close

B．Westerners and Japanese have the same concept of space

C．Westerners and Japanese have different idea with regard to personal space

D．Japanese have no idea about privacy

Although there are body languages that can cross cultural boundaries, culture is stilt a significant factor in all body languages. This is particularly true of personal space needs. For example, Dr. Edward Hall has shown that in Japan crowding together is a sign of warm and pleasant intimacy. In certain situations, Hall believes that the Japanese prefer crowding.

Donald Keene, who wrote Living Japan, notes the fact that in the Japanese language there is no word for privacy. Still, this does not mean that there is no concept of the need to be apart from others. To the Japanese, privacy exists in terms of his house. He considers this area to be his own, and he dislikes invasion of it. The fact that he crowds together with others does not contradict his need for living space.

Dr. Hall sees this as a reflection of the Japanese concept of space. Westerners, he believed, see space as the distance between objects; to them space is empty. The Japanese, on the other hand, see space as having as much meaning as their flower arrangements and art, and the shape of their gardens as well, where units of space balance the areas containing flowers or plants.

Like the Japanese, the Arabs too prefer to be close to one another. But while in public they are crowded together, in privacy, they prefer a great deal of space. The traditional or wealthy Arab house is large and empty, with family often crowded together in one small area of it. The Arabs do not like to be alone, and even in their spacious. houses they will huddle together.

The difference between the Arab huddling and the Japanese crowding is a deep thing. Tile Arabs like to touch his companion. The Japanese, in their closeness, preserve a formality and a cool dignity. They manage to touch and still keep rigid boundaries. The Arabs push these boundaries aside.

Along with this closeness, there is a pushing and shoving in the Arab world that many Westerners find uncomfortable, even unpleasant. To an American, for example, there are personal boundaries even in a public place. When he is waiting in line, he believes that his place there is his alone, and may not be invaded by another. The Arab has no concept of privacy in the public place, and if he can rush his way into a line, he feels perfectly within his rights to do so. To an American, the body is sacred; he dislikes being touched by a stranger, and will apologize if he touches another accidentally. To an Arab, bodily contact is accepted.

Hall points out that an Arab needs at times to be alone, no matter how close he wishes to be, physically, to his fellow men. To be alone, he simply cuts off the lines of communication. He retreats into himself, mentally and spiritually, and this withdrawal is respected by his companions. If an American were with an Arab who withdrew in this way, he would regard it as impolite, as lack of respect, even as an insult.

What's the main idea of the passage?

A．Arabs and Japanese have different ideas of privacy.

B．Body languages reflect cultural concepts.

C．Cultural differences between the West and the East.

D．People in different cultures have different concepts of space.

I am always a little puzzled when I hear people complain about the difficulties of finding a good job. Young people in their 20s express dissatisfaction that all the good jobs have been taken by those in their 40s. People in their 40s, trapped in the middle groups of the workforce, complain about waiting for their elders to. make room for them at the top. Older employees worry about being forced out of the job market prematurely by younger people willing to work at entry-level wages. It is not a pretty picture.

But I do not buy it. In my view, differences between generations are not a problem but an opportunity—if you remember to apply some basic principles of self-marketing. Most of us learned from Marketing 101 textbooks that there are four phases in the life cycle of a product or brand. The names may differ, but essentially the four phases are Introduction, Growth, Maturity and Decline. As a manager of high-profile athletes for more than 30 years, I know that these four phases certainly apply to the career and marketability of an athlete.

An athlete's introduction or start-up phase is when he or she starts competing, does well and captures the attention of people in the sport. Introduction turns into the growth phase when the athlete goes from being a promising performer to an established star. That's when everybody wants a piece of the athlete's time and he must stay focused on his primary talent and not get distracted by side issues.

For an athlete, the toughest thing about the mature phase may simply be recognizing that he or she is in it. If you're marketing a bar of soap it is easy to tell if the product is mature. It is there in the stagnant or shrinking sales figures. It is different with athletes. Not only do they think the growth phase will never end, but they often deny that there is any decrease in their athletic skills or marketability, no matter what the numbers say.

The decline phase for an athlete may sound harsh, but it doesn't have to be if he or she thinks of it as a reflective phase. In this phase an athlete can have tremendous future as a legendary figure who functions as an ambassador for his or her sport. If you substitute "employee" for "athlete" in these examples, these four phases apply to any individual's career.

I genuinely believe that whenever people face a career crisis, a big reason is because they are "out of phase." I have always been a tremendous advocate of recruiting older workers. With the massive downsizing of corporate America, there are tens of thousands of talented men and women over the age of 50 who feel shut out of the work-place. To me, these people are a gold mine—not because they are available but rather because they possess the qualities that employees in the introduction and growth phases lack, namely wisdom and experience. And since many of them received generous early-retirement packages, money is not their sole motivation. In other words, they are affordable.

If I were marketing myself in the mature phase, I'd focus on these qualities. Wisdom, experience and affordability make up a potent package. But you cannot do that unless you first recognize and fully appreciate the phase you are in.

What can be concluded from the passage?

A．Most young people cannot find a job if they don't study the four phase theory.

B．Young people with good jobs have studied the four phase theory.

C．Job seekers should fully understand the phase they are in.

D．Older employees will be forced out of job market by the young.

Paulus could accurately predict the relapsers because

A．the part of their brain controlling cognitive skills is less active.

B．a four-week intensive rehabilitation program is not effective enough.

C．he has the devices sophisticated enough to scan any brain damage.

D．something innate to their brains prompt them to use drugs.

Many Older Doctors Plan to Phase out Their Practice.

The results Of a new survey indicate that 48 percent of physicians between 50 and 65 years Of age are planning to reduce or end their clinical practice in the next。l to 3 years.The findings also suggest that many older physicians believe that their younger counterparts do not have the work ethic they do.

The survey，which was conducted by Merritt Hawkins&Associates，a Texas-based physician search and consulting firm，suggests that many older physicians are simply unhappy with the changes that have taken place in medicine over the Years.

“When Baby Boom doctors entered medicine they had control over how they practiced and the fee they charged.But the rules changed on them in mid’stream and now many are looking for a ticket out，”Mark Smith，executive vice president of Merritt Hawkins&Associates，said in a statement.

“Our study is the only one I am aware of that examines the career plans of.

physicians in the 50-To-65 age group.”This age group represents more than One-third of all physicians in the U.S.If they stop working in the coming years，It will have a “significant impact”on the overall supply of physicians，Smith told Reuters Health_.

The results of the survey，which included 1,170 respondents(调查对象)，show that 24 percent Of older physicians are planning to leave clinical practice all together In the next 1 to 3 years.Specifically，1 4 percent said they were planning on retiring，7 percent said they were looking for a medical job a non—patient care setting，and 3 Percent said they were seeking a job in a non—medical field.

For those physicians not leaving clinical practice，many said they would make changes to reduce the number of patients they treat.For instance，12 percent said they would begin working part—time，8 percent said they planned to stop taking new patients Or markedly reduce their patient load，and 4 percent expressed a desire to work on a temporary basis.

When asked about the work ethic of physicians entering practice today，68 percent of the respondents said that these younger doctors are not as dedicated Or as hard working as physicians who entered practice 20 t0 30 years ago.

Fifty-seven percent of older physicians said they would not recommend medicine as a career to their own children.Similarly，44 percent said they would not select medicine as a career if they were starting out today.

“The most ominous(不祥的)finding is that about one half of physicians surveyed plant to either abandon patient care in the next 1 to 3 years，or significantly reduce the number Of patients they see，”Smith said.“The U.S。already is facing a widespread shortage Of physicians，Should older，‘workhorse’physicians choose to opt out Of patient care.access to medical services will be further restricted.”.
