Section B
Passage One
Nilrikman and others of the Harvard research group have done some research into the differences between average and good negotiators. They found negotiators with the good trait record and studied them in action. They compared them with another group of average negotiators and found there was no difference in the time the two groups spent on planning their strategy. However, there were some significant differences on other points. The average negotiators thought in terms of the present, but the good negotiators took a long-term view. They made lots of suggestions and considered twice the number of alternatives. The average negotiators set their objectives as a single points. “ We hope to get 2 dollars ” , for example. The good negotiators set their objectives in terms of range, which they might formulate as “ We hope to get 2 dollars, but if we get one dollar and fifty, it ' ll be all right. ” The average negotiators tried to persuade by giving lots of reasons. They used a lot of different arguments. The good negotiators didn ' t give many reasons. They just repeated the same ones. They also did more summarizing and reviewing, checking they were understood correctly.
11. What do good negotiators and average negotiators have in common?
12. According to the speaker, what would the good negotiators do?
13. According to the speaker, what does the average negotiator usually do?
Passage Two
To most of us, sharks are the most dangerous fish in the sea and they attack humans. However, according to Dr Clark who has studied the behaviour of sharks for 12 years, humans are not normally on the sharks ' menu. What do sharks feed on? Mainly fish and other small sea animals. Dr Clark also found that sharks don ' t eat as much food as people think. For instance, a nine feet shark only need two pounds of food a day to keep healthy. But she says sometimes sharks starve and at other times they fill themselves with what they have killed. Around the world there are only about 100 shark attacks on humans each year, ten of which prove fatal. But consider this, in the U.S. alone about 3 million people are bitten by dogs each year. Of this, thirteen people die. If a shark bites you, says Dr Clark, the reason is usually because it mistakes you for its natural food. For example, say you went underwater fishing and saw a shark, you could be in trouble. The shark might go for the injured fish you had attacked and take a big bite of you at the same time. If you go into a shark ' s territory and threaten it, it might try to bite you. That ' s because sharks are territorial and tend to guard their territory. Like dogs, they protect the area that they think as their own.
14. What does the passage say about the eating behaviour of sharks?
15. When might a shark attack humans?
16. What do we learn from the passage about sharks?
Passage Three
Science fiction writers have often imagined human beings going to live on Mars. But these days scientists are taking the idea seriously. It has a great deal to recommend it since it might solve the problem of over-crowding on the earth. But obviously it will not be worth making the effort and thus the people could live there naturally. If the atmosphere were like that of the earth, this might be possible. But in fact it is mostly carbon dioxide. Apart from that, there are other problems to be overcomed. For example, the temperature would have to be raised from 60 degrees below 0 to 15 degrees above it. Scientists used to study Mars have laid down the program that they can follow. To begin with, they will have to find out whether life has ever existed on the planet Mars in the past. Secondly, they will have to make a reliable map of its surface, and finally they will have to make a list of the guesses. Above all they will have to discover how much nitrogen is pellasis, since nitrogen is four-fifths of the air we breathe. They are surprisingly optimistic about raising the temperature on Mars, and believe it could be done in 200 years. It would take a bit long, though, to transform the atmosphere so that human beings could live there. Scientists estimate that this will take 100,000 years.
17. Why are scientists interested in Mars?
18. What is one of the things that must be done before man can live on Mars?
19. Why do scientists want to find out whether there is sufficient nitrogen on Mars?
20. What is the prospect of people living on Mars?
