A: Hello, Mr．Kubat．I am glad to meet you here at the fair.

B: Likewise．Take a seat, please．How about a cup of tea？

A: Sure．Thank you．It seems your business is prosperous．There are many customers here.

B: Yes, it's not too bad．Our sales are going up year after year．And we still have a large potential production capacity.

A: Well, what do you think of choosing a commission representative or agent abroad to promote your sales？

B: That's a good idea．So far, we have several agents abroad.

A: We are willing to be your agent in Thailand for hand-held tools．What do you think？

B: That sounds good.

A : Then , what's your usual commission rate for your agents？

B: Usually, we give a commission of 3% to our agents.

A: 3% is too low, I think．You see, we have a lot of work to do in sales promotion such as advertising on radio or TV, printing booklets, leaflets, catalogues and so on．It all costs money．3% is not enough.

B: Don't worry．We'll allow you a higher commission rate if your sales score a substantial increase.

A: You mean to say.--

B: Now, if you sell US ＄2 million worth of hand-held tools annually, we can only allow 3% commission．If the annual turnover exceeds US ＄5 million, you can get 5% commission．What do you think of that？

A: It sounds OK．Then how do you pay the commission？

B: We may deduct the commission from the invoice value directly or remit it to you after payment.

A: All right．If it's okay, we would like to sign an agency agreement with you immediately.

B : Think it over．We hope to keep a good business relationship with you.

A: Thank you for your help.

What do we mean by a satisfactory standard of living？ Obviously, it must include the basic

necessities of life such as food, clothing and shelter. To get these necessities on regular basis, a person must have a reliable income. But we have other needs which would probably also be included as basic, such as health and education facilities.

We may think of all of these as our needs. Yet most of us would be far from satisfied if we had nothing more than these which are supplied for us. (78) We all enjoy extra income to spend on things like books, sports or hobbies. Sometimes we save some of this extra income to pay for future expense of this type on holidays. So we must add our wants to our basic needs. Our standard of living is the degree, to which these needs and wants are satisfied.

But as time goes on, what we think of as our basic needs changes. Twenty years ago a television would have been a luxury, and still is in many countries now. Even now we cannot say it is a need in the same sense as food, clothing and shelter. Yet if most of the people of a country have one, it comes to be accepted as a need．It is possible therefore to have food, clothing and shelter and still be poor by the standards of our own society.

What we need in life is divided into ________ according to this article.

A．the basic necessities and luxury

B．many kinds of need such as food, clothing and houses

C．four groups the basic necessities, luxury, reliable income and future expense

D．the basic necessities and reliable income

All that we really need to plot out the future of our universe are a few good measurements

. This does not mean that we can sit down today and outline the future course of the universe with anything like certainty. There are still too many things we do not know about the way the universe is put together. But we do know exactly what information we need to fill in our knowledge, and we have a pretty good idea of how to go about getting it.

Perhaps the best way to think of our present situation is to imagine a train coming into a switchyard. All of the switches are set before the train arrives, so that its path is completely determined. Some switches we can see, others we can not. There is no ambiguity if we can see the setting of a switch: we can say with confidence that some possible futures will not materialize and others will. At the unseen switches, however, there is no such certainty. We know the train will take one of the tracks leading out, but we have no idea which one. The unseen switches are the true decision points in the future, and what happens when we arrive at them determines the entire subsequent course of events.

When we think about the future of the universe, we can see our "track" many billions of years into the future, but after that there are decision points to be dealt with and possible fates to consider. The goal of science is to reduce the ambiguity at the decision points and find the true road that will be followed.

According to the passage, it is difficult to be certain about the distant future of the universe because we ______.

A．have too many conflicting theories

B．do not have enough funding to continue our research

C．are not sure how the universe is put together

D．have focused on investigations of the moon and planets

We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money. But most mistakes

are about people. "Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen？ .... When I got that great job, did Jim really feel good about it, as a friend？ Or did he envy my luck？" When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back, it' s too late.

Why do we go wrong about our friends or our enemies？ Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning. And if we don' t really listen closely we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone tells you, "You' re a lucky dog." That' s being friendly. But "lucky dog？" There' s a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesn' t see it himself. But bringing in the "dog" puts you down a little. What he may be saying is that he doesn' t think you deserve your luck.

"Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for is another noise that says one thing and means another. It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole. But is he？ Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isn' t important. It' s telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you haven't got a date for Saturday night.

How can you tell the real meaning behind someone' s words？ One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks？ Does what he says agree with the tone of voice？ His posture？ The look in his eyes？ Stop and think. The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.

This passage is mainly about ______.

A．how to interpret what people say

B．what to do when. you listen to others talking

C．how to avoid mistakes when you communicate with people

D．why we go wrong with people sometimes
