Ⅴ.题型示例
Part I Fast Reading
Directions: In this part, you will go over the passage quickly and decide whether each
of the following statements true or false. Please mark “T” or “F” on the Answer
Sheet.
A few short years ago, I lay at the point of death. A congestive heart failure was
treated for diagnostic purposes by an angiogram that triggered a stroke. Violent and
painful hiccups, uninterrupted for several days and nights, prevented the ingestion of
food. My left side and one of my vocal cords became paralyzed. Some form of
pleurisy set in, and I felt I was drowning in a sea of slime. At one point, my heart
stopped beating; just as I lost consciousness, it was thumped back into action again. In
one of my lucid intervals during those days of agony, I asked my physician to
discontinue all life-supporting services or show me how to do it. He refused and
predicted that someday I would appreciate the unwisdom of my request.
A month later, I was discharged from the hospital. In six months, I regained the
use of my limbs, and although my voice still lacks its old resonance and carrying
power I no longer croak like a frog. There remain some minor disabilities and I am
restricted to a rigorous, low sodium diet. I have resumed my writing and research.
My experience can be and has been cited as an argument against honoring
requests of stricken patients to be gently eased out of their pain and life. I cannot
agree. There are two main reasons. As an octogenarian, there is a reasonable
likelihood that I may suffer another "cardiovascular accident" or worse. I may not
even be in a position to ask for the surcease of pain. It seems to me that I have already
paid my dues to death--indeed, although time has softened my memories they are
vivid enough to justify my saying that I suffered enough to warrant dying several
times over. Why run the risk of more?
Secondly, I dread imposing on my family and friends another grim round of
misery similar to the one my first attack occasioned.

Part IV Reading Comprehension
Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some
questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices. You
should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer
Sheet.
Passage One
High-quality customer service is preached (宣扬) by many, but actually keeping
customers happy is easier said than done.
Shoppers seldom complain to the manager or owner of a retail store, but instead
will alert their friends, relatives, co-workers, strangers — and anyone who will listen.
Store managers are often the last to hear complaints, and often find out only when
their regular customers decide to frequent their competitors, according to a study
jointly conducted by Verde Group and Wharton School.
“Storytelling hurts retailers and entertains consumers,” said Paula Courtney,
President of the Verde Group. “The store loses the customer, but the shopper must
also find a replacement.”
On average, every unhappy customer will complain to at least four others, and
will no longer visit the specific store. For every dissatisfied customer, a store will lose
up to three more due to negative reviews. The resulting “snowball effect” can be 广州大学松田学院 2014 年本科插班生专业课程考试大纲

disastrous to retailers.
According to the research, shoppers who purchased clothing encountered the
most problem. Ranked second and third were grocery and electronics customers.
The most common complaints include filled parking lots, cluttered (塞满了的)
shelves, over-located racks, out-of-stock items, long check-out lines, and rude
salespeople.
During peak shopping hours, some retailers solved the parking problems by
getting moonlighting (业余兼职的) local police to work as parking attendants. Some
hired flag wavers to direct customers to empty parking spaces. This guidance
eliminated the need for customers to circle the parking lot endlessly, and avoided
confrontation between those eyeing the same parking space.
Retailers can relieve the headaches by redesigning store layouts, pre-stocking
sales items, hiring speedy and experienced cashiers, and having sales representatives
on hand to answer questions.
Most importantly, salespeople should be diplomatic and polite with angry
customers.
“Retailers who’re responsive and friendly are more likely to smooth over issues
than those who aren’t so friendly,” said Professor Stephen Hoch. “Maybe something
as simple as a greeter at the store entrance would help.”
Customers can also improve future shopping experiences by filling complaints to
the retailer, instead of complaining to the rest of the world. Retailers are hard-pressed
to improve when they have no idea what is wrong.
46. Why are store managers often the last to hear complaints?
A. Most customers won’t bother to complain even if they have had unhappy
experiences.
B. Customers would rather relate their unhappy experiences to people around them.
C. Few customers believe the service will be improved.
D. Customers have no easy access to store managers.
