Hardly anyone can positively enjoy sitting in a train for more than a few hours. Train carriages soon get full of passengers and stuffy. It is almost impossible to take your mind off the journey. Reading is only a partial solution, for the noise of the wheels clicking on the rails soon makes you sleepy. During the day, sleep comes in short periods. At night, when you really want to go to sleep, you can rarely manage to do so. Surely you arrive at your destination almost worn out. Long car journeys are even less pleasant, for it is quite impossible even to read. On motorways you can, at least, travel fairly safely at high speeds, but more often than not, the greater part of the journey is spent on roads with few service stations and too much traffic. By comparison, ferry trips or cruises offer a great variety of civilized comforts. You can stretch your legs on the spacious decks, play games, meet interesting people and enjoy delicious food-always assuming, of course, that the sea is calm. If it is not, and you are likely to get seasick, no form of transport could be worse. Even if you travel in ideal weather, sea journeys take a long time. Airplanes have the reputation of being unsafe and even hardened travelers are afraid of them. They also have the disadvantages of being an expensive form of transport. But nothing can match them for speed and comfort. Traveling at a height of 30,000 feet, far above the clouds, and at over 500 miles an hour is a very exciting experience. You do not have to think out ways of taking your mind off the journey, for an airplane gets you to your destination rapidly. For a few hours, you settle back in a deep armchair to enjoy the flight. The real enjoyment is to watch a film and drink wine on some services. But even when these things are not available, there is plenty to keep you occupied. A plane offers you an unusual and breathtaking view of the world. The journey is so smooth that there is nothing to prevent you from reading or sleeping. No matter how you decide to spend your time, one thing is certain: you will arrive at your destination fresh and energetic. You do not have to spend the next few days recovering from a long and arduous journey.

A conflict at work is common.If you can avoid conflict, it means you will win what you want regardless of what the other person wants.Since the potential issue has not been removed, it will simply reappear later.Let's see what you can do.
★Be aware of the fact that some conflicts are unavoidable at work.On numerous occasions, conflict and disagreement are likely to happen.But when a conflict happens it's not the end of the world.On the contrary, it can be the beginning of an interesting learning process.Conflicts mean that people care enough to disagree strongly.The trick is not to allow the conflict to go on forever.
★Deal with conflicts sooner rather than later.Solve a conflict when it starts, as it only gets worse with time going by.Conflicts at work arise not from something that was said, but from something that wasn't said! Everyone's waiting for the other to admit he's wrong and gets more unpleasant after the conflict has lasted a while.It's essential to interrupt the "waiting game" before it gets to that point.
★Ask nicely.If somebody has done something that made you angry, or if you don't understand their viewpoint or actions, simply asking nicely about it can make a world of difference.Never assume that people do what they do to annoy or hurt you.Sometimes there's a good reason why that person does what he or she does, and a potential conflict disappear right there.Do remember to make an inquiry, not an accusation of any sort.
★Appreciate.Praise the other part in the conflict.Tell them why it's worth it to you to solve the conflict.This can be difficult as few people find it easy to praise and appreciate a person they disagree strongly with, but it's a great way to move forward.

注意:每個空格只填一個單詞。
It's every student's dream to do well in the national college entrance examination and enter a good university.In the eyes of students and parents, a good university should have a high ranking, and the employment rate of its graduates should be high.But be careful! The employment rate they tell you might not always be true.
Recently, people created a Chinese phrase “bei jiuye”, which has become popular on the Internet almost overnight across China.The word “bei” has a grammatical use in Chinese:it has a function similar to the passive voice in English.But now people often use it to express their doubts about something.Here, the phrase “bei jiuye” has the literal meaning of “to be hired”, but people understand that it really means “to be hired without one's knowledge” or “be hired for jobs that may not exist at all”.
The story of “bei jiuye” goes like this.Zhao Dongdong, a graduate of a university in Shanxi province, was surprised to find that he got a job from a company he never applied to, which he wasn't even sure was a real place.On his last day of graduation ceremonies, he was surprised to come across the employment contract.
“God! At that time, I had not landed a job yet, but they gave me an employment contract! I wondered who on earth signed the contract with the company.” When Zhao made a phone call to the company to check it out, no one answered.He was not the only one in his college who was “hired” for a job that did not exist.One of his classmates signed a contract with a company called Xi'an Beilin Industrial Corporation, which could not be found on the Internet either.In the end, it turned out that the college had faked the contract to make it seem like the employment rate for new graduates was higher than that.By doing this, the college could build up a “good” reputation that could help it attract new students.“Bei jiuye” is just one of many hot “bei” words on the Internet.See some of them in “Bonus”.The use of “bei” is a satirical(諷刺的)way for the public to express its helplessness and criticize abuses of power, some people say.People also use “bei” words to bring attention to social problems, hoping they will be noticed by authorities.

閱讀下面短文,根據(jù)所讀內(nèi)容在表格中的空白處填入恰當(dāng)?shù)膯卧~。注意:每個空格只填一個單詞。
Real policemen hardly recognize any similarity between their lives and what they see on TV.
The first difference is that a policeman's real life revolved round(圍繞;以…為目的)criminal law.He has to know exactly what actions are crimes and what evidence can be used to prove them in court.He has to know nearly as much law as a professional lawyer, and what is more, he has to apply it on his feet, in the dark and rain, running down a street after someone he wants to talk to.
Little of his time is spent in chatting.He will spend most of his working life typing millions of words on thousands of forms about hundreds of sad, unimportant people who are guilty of stupid crimes.
Most television crime drama is about finding the criminal:as soon as he's arrested, the story is over.In real life, finding criminal is seldom much of a problem.Except in very serious cases like murders and terrorist attacks, little effort is spent on searching.
Having made an arrest, a detective(偵探)really starts to work.He has to prove his case in court and to do that he often has to gather a lot of different evidence.
A third big difference between the drama detective and the real one is the unpleasant pressures:first, as members of a police force, they always have to behave absolutely in accordance with(依照)the law.Secondly, as expensive public servants, they have to get results.They can hardly ever do both.Most of the time some of them have to break the rules in small ways.
If the detective has to deceive(欺騙)the world, the world often deceives him.Hardly anyone he meets tells him the truth.And this separation the detective feels between himself and the rest of the world is deepened by the simple-minded-as he see it-of citizens, social workers, doctors, law-makers, and judges, who, instead of eliminating(消除)crime, punish the criminals less severely in the hope that this will make them reform.The result, detective feel, is that nine-tenths of their work is re-catching people who should have stayed behind bars.This makes them rather cynical(憤世嫉俗的).
