A

At a young age, I realized that my parents depend on me to become everything that they have always wanted to become themselves.

My mother never had a chance to complete her education because of difficult family situations. She has put all her unrealized hopes and dreams on my shoulders, a seventeen-year-old. My siblings (兄弟姐妹) were angry with me and I, in turn, was angry with my parents for the added pressure of being “the one that will be everything”. But I still tried hard to remain on top of my grades through elementary and middle school because I didn’t want to disappoint them. My father would actually gloat (洋洋自得) when I brought home a perfect grade. He would offer me a simple “Congratulations” and then walk away. I remember when I did not get the highest grade, and received a score less than perfect by my father’s standards, I wished for a heartfelt “I am proud of you” or a hug and kiss, but instead was asked the question, “Where are the other ten points?” I would laugh it off and pretend that I did not care. But I cared more than I thought.

As my final year of high school comes to a close, and my college career approaches, my mother is becoming more and more aggressive in her desires for me to succeed. I keep having nightmares of failing or not becoming the success they thought I would be. It is so hard to overcome this fear. I know what it takes. I have to trust my judgment and let go of the demands of my parents. I will live my dreams and become the success that I want to be.

37. The author finally decided        .

A. to run away from home

B. to follow his own dreams

C. not to be devoted completely to his studies D. not to go to college

A. parents usually love their children deeply

B. children should shoulder their parents’ unrealized wishes

C. children should learn to be independent

D. too much pressure from parents can harm their children

B

The 1960 Presidential Debates between Vice President Nixon and Kennedy were the first nationally televised debates in presidential (总统的) campaign history. 70 million voters were given the opportunity to not only hear the candidates, but to visually (在视觉上地) compare them.

Surprisingly, there’s a big difference between the TV-viewers and the radio-listeners. While radio-listeners clearly thought that Nixon had won the first debate, TV-viewers were attracted by Kennedy’s smile and charm.

Now let’s think about some other situations: what if a baseball manager knew the opposing team’s signals and were able to prognosticate their game plan? Likewise, as a professional salesman, you would be wise to monitor your potential customers’ body language and adjust your work from time to time.

In 1872, Charles Darwin published the book The Expressions in Man and Animals and began the modern study of nonverbal (非语言的) communication. In fact, it is a mixture of movement, posture and tone of voice.

Top salesmen and the most successful managers recognize the importance of nonverbal communication. They understand that one of the easiest and most effective ways to make good sales is to be aware of their potential customers’ “buy signals.”

Matching and mirroring your potential customers’ body language gestures is a way of telling others that you like them and agree with them. The psychological principle behind matching and mirroring is that people want to do business with salesmen who are similar to them.

39. We can learn from the passage that _____.

A. a salesman should not use too much body language

B. Presidential Debates first started in America in 1960

C. baseball managers often know the opposing team’s signals

D. Darwin was the first modern scientist researching on body language

40. The example of 1960 Presidential Debates is used to show _____.

A. the debates were always fierce

B. the debates always attracted large quantities of people

C. the voters paid more attention to the candidate’s debating skills

D. the voters’ opinions are affected by the candidate’s nonverbal communication

41. Charles Darwin wrote the book The Expressions in Man and Animals to _____.

A. report his research on body language

B. conclude men can learn a lot from animals

C. teach people how to communicate with animals

D. show the big difference between men and animals
