Last week, I took a sales class for female business owners. The     36   thing the instructor did was ask if anyone had been the victim of a     37   sales experience. Every person in the room    38   her hand.

When she knew details, we learned that the     39   situations had one thing in common. It     40   that whenever a class member had a bad sales experience, it involved the     41   promising something he wouldn’t or couldn’t deliver.

The example I     42  with the class was a current one. I bought a summer membership at our community pool     43   because it advertised a lovely baby pool to which I could escape with my active one and four year-olds. However, every time I’ve used the pool this summer, the baby area has been     44   . Too much chlorine(氯氣),    45   one manager.

I’m sure the pool director was very apologetic that his     46   had been inconvenienced, and that’s nice, but the     47   is that I did not get what I paid for. When the baby pool was closed, I had to swim with my     48   in the adult pool, which did not     49   me the control I wanted and as such, was quite stressful. I would have rather stayed home.

The pool has     50  a customer. I will not be buying a pass next summer.

In work and in life, it is really important not to     51   something you can’t deliver, because at best, it will improve your   52    . At worse, you could lose your job.    53   , before you assure a co-worker or customer that you can get something done, make sure that your boss or someone higher-up isn’t going to step in and force you to     54   your plan. You are not God, so don’t lead people to believe that you     55  the universe.

科目:高中英語 來源:2012-2013學(xué)年江西省八校高三聯(lián)考英語試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

Michelle Obama made a daring decision to return to the same designer who created her Inaugural (就職)Ball dress four years ago --- and the risk paid off.

The First Lady looked extremely attractive in a thin, sweeping, and ruby-colored dress by designer Jason Wu. She teamed the dramatic dress with heels by Jimmy Choo and a diamond ring by Kimberly McDonald.

She surprised the fashion establishment by returning to a Wu design which had been the custom made for her.

Four years ago at her first Inauguration Ball, Michelle shimmered(熠熠生輝)in an off-white, one-shouldered floor-length dress by the designer.

Wu, who was 26 at the time and had only been working in fashion for three years, saw his career take off after the First Lady's surprise decision to wear one of his dresses.

He said at the time that he was unaware she had chosen the dress and had been watching at home on his couch and eating pizza when she appeared.

After her 2013 decision, Wu told Women's Wear Daily: “Mrs Obama likes to keep her secrets. She fooled me again.”

Wu released a women's clothing and accessories(裝飾品)collection at Target last year and continues to be popular with the First Lady for official engagements.

The sleeveless, cross-halter neck dress with low-cut back flattered(突出)49-year-old Michelle's arms and neat waist.

It had been created especially for her by Wu and was a departure from the dark and plain colour tone she stuck to at earlier inauguration events.

Mrs Obama's new hairstyle -- she had bangs(美發(fā)沙龍)cut on her birthday last week  had been loosely tousled(蓬松的)for the special night.

Vice-President Joe Biden's wife Jill also looked attractive in a blue silk dress by Vera Wang at the Inauguration Ball.

1.What does the passage mainly talk about?

A.Michelle Obama’s inaugural ball dress.

B.Wu, a great designer.

C.The First Lady’s secrets.

D.Mrs Obama’s 2013 decision.

2.Michelle Obama’s brave decision proved to be a_________.

A.risk                                  B.danger

C. Surprise                             D.success

3. According to the passage, which of the following is correct?

A.Mrs Obama’s inaugural dresses were made by the same designer.

B.Joe Biden’s wife Jill also had her dress created by Wu.

C.The colour tone at Michelle’s earlier inaugural events was not satifactory.

D.Mrs Obama had straight forehead hair as her new hairstyle for the special night.

4. Which of the following best describes Jason Wu?

A.Daring and gifted.

B.Unusual and cautious.

C.Careful and brave.

D.Talented and lucky.

5. From the 6th and 7th paragraphs we know that________.

A.Wu was aware that Mrs Obama had chosen his work again

B.Wu didn’t know Mrs Obama had chosen his creation again.

C.Mrs Obama told Wu to give away her secrets

D.Mrs Obama should have told Wu the truth
