“What is success”? Mr. Black asked his 6th grade business class. It was his opening conversation for the first class of the term. “Success is riding in a sweet car, watching an 80-inch((英寸) TV, and living in a place with at least twelve rooms.” One student answered, earning(博得)laughs from all the students. Mr. Black smiled, but shook his head. “Tom, that is excess(过量). That is not success.” “How about being able to provide for your family?” A blonde girl named Sandy in the front suggested as an answer. “Now we’re getting closer,” Mr. Black smiled, “but try thinking about what you need and what you want.” “Getting everything you want.” Tom shouted out an answer again, trying for more laughs. Mr. Black sighed(叹气).“ I believe we’ve already talked about excess versus(与…比较) success.” “Getting everything you need, but some of what you want?” James, sitting in the back wondered aloud. “Quite right!” Mr. Black clapped. “Success is getting everything you need and some of what you want. The more you get that you want, the more successful you are. You do reach a point where you are living in excess, though.” “What does this have to do with business?” Tom asked. It seemed if it wasn’t funny, he wasn’t happy. “Well, Tom, think of it this way: the point of business is to make a living to support your family. Once you have properly seen to (确保) their needs, you can then seen to getting the extras that you want.” “What if I don’t have a family?” he continued to be difficult. “Then you have to provide for yourself, a family of one.” “He has goldfish to think about!” Peter, Tom’s friend, shouted out. “Then he needs to provide for a family of one with a fishbowl.” Mr. Black corrected himself. Tom nodded, satisfied with that answer. “So in the next nine weeks, we’re going to study basic business situations, like having a checking account and understanding credit cards(信用卡).” Tom rubbed his hands together excitedly. “When do we get to start spending?” “You already are, Tom. You’re spending time with us!” Mr. Black laughed. “Now, let’s see what you guys know about credit cards…” 小题1:What was Mr. Black?A.A historyteacher | B.A scienceteacher | C.A business teacher | D.A math teacher | 小题2:Which student didn’t seem to be taking the class seriously?A.Tom | B.James | C.Peter | D.Sandy | 小题3:How did Mr. Black make his class lively and interesting?A.He himself kept talking | B.He just read from a textbook. | C.He showed a movie to his students. | D.He got his students to take part in a discussion. | 小题4:How do you like Mr. Black according to the passage?A.Strange | B.Patient | C.Shy | D.Proud | 小题5:What can be the best title of this passage?A.Get What You Want | B.Needs and Wants | C.Try to Get More Money | D.How to Live Well |

请根据短文内容,填写表格,每空不超过3个单词。 Many people would like to watch sport matches. First, you need to know about audience manners. Most sporting arenas(竞技场)have rules for audience written on the back of the tickets. Read your ticket carefully before you arrive. Try to reach your seat half an hour before the start of the event and don’t leave when a game is in progress. When you leave, remember to take away your soft drink bottles and other rubbish. During exciting games, try to control yourself. Don’t criticize the performance of players and coaches. Be careful with your words, since some may cause anger among other people in the audience. Clapping is a special form of body language you can use to communicate with players, but you should do it properly. When players first appear, clap your hands together to welcome them, but don’t go on for too long. After an excellent performance, clap warmly. If someone fails, your clapping will help encourage them. Clapping is not welcome, however, while players need to keep their attention. Various sports have various rules for the audience. Enjoying artistic gymnastics silence. But lots of cheering can really help basketball and football players. When you watch snooker and table tennis matches, flash photography is not allowed. Mobile phones are not allowed in shooting centers. To be a good audience, you should take time to learn the game—particular rules and related culture of each event. Title: Good Audience Manners
