AOdland remembers like it was yesterday working in an expensive French restaurant in Denver. The ice cream he was serving fell onto the white dress of a rich and important woman.Thirty years have passed, but Odland can not get the memory out of his mind, nor the woman’s kind reaction. She was shocked, regained calmness and, in a kind voice, told the young Odland. “It is OK. It wasn’t your fault.” When she left the restaurant, she also left the future Fortune 500 CEO with a life lesson: You can tell a lot about a person by the way he or she treats the waiter.Odland isn’t the only CEO to have made this discovery. Instead, it seems to be one of those few laws of the land that every CEO learns on the way up. It’s hard to get a dozen CEOs to agreeabout anything, but most agree with the Waiter Rule. They say how others treat the CEO says nothing. But how others treat the waiter is like a window into the soul.Watch out for anyone who pulls out the power card to say something like, “I could buy this place and fire you,” or “I know the owner and I could have you fi red.” Those who say such things have shown more about their character than about their wealth and power.The CEO who came up with it, or at least first wrote it down, is Raytheon CEO Bill Swanson. He wrote a best-selling book called Swanson’s Unwritten Rules of Management. “A person who is niceto you but rude to the waiter, or to others, is not a nice person,” Swanson says. “I will never offer a job to the personwho is sweet to the boss but turns rude to someone cleaning the tables.”21. What happened after Odland dropped the ice cream onto the woman’s dress?A. He was fired.B. He was blamed.C. The woman comforted him.D. The woman left the restaurant at once.22.

Now such games are used to help lose weight!Like many other teenage boys, Jones loved sports. But at 5 feet, 175 pounds, he found his weight a trouble. His doctor wanted him to lose 50 pounds so that he may catch up with the football game by the end of summer.Jones chose the popular dance revolution video game at home to increase his activity. He had lost about 10 pounds by changing his diet. Now, after two weeks playing the game, he has lost another 10!The health study is being done by an insurance company, whichhopes that game will lead to better health and lower costs. “Obesity claims (肥胖索赔) last year cost us $77 million. We have to cut those costs”, said a member of the insurance group. The company provides a game console (游戏主机), a dance mat and software for the six-month, $ 60,000 study.The study is more than commercial thing of an insurance company.It is widely supported by physical education and health professionals.In West Virginia, 43% of the nearly 6,000 children examined for heart disease risk were considered over-weighted; more than 25% were too fat. “We are in a crisis of childhood obesity not only in West Virginia but in America,” said a researcher.Researchers are looking at the potential for improving effects by using the game.

A Magic Video Dance GameDPaparazzi, or “paps”, are photographers who take pictures of famous people when they are not at the center of public attention. Paps are different from professional photographers or journalists because they never take ordinary photos.The goal for paparazzi is to get pictures that no one else will getand then sell the pictures to the buyer who offers the most money —normally a small newspaper, magazine or website.There is no law against paparazzi taking pictures in public places. However, there are laws that protect certain individuals. For example, child protection laws stop improper pictures of anyone under 16 from being published.There is also no law that stops paparazzi from following celebrities (名人) and taking their pictures either. However, if paps are secretly following them and taking pictures of their faces, they could get into trouble.Most paparazzi hang out on streets and hot spots for celebrities, waiting for the opportunity to take a picture of a star. Many stay on the streets until the early hours of the morning when celebrities are leaving nightclubs and looking a little worse for wear. However, some have other ways to make sure they get pictures. Many paps are in contact with “informers” who know the locations of celebrities at any given time. They then pass the information on to paparazzi. An informer could be anyone —from a restaurant waiter to a salesman.Most of the time, paparazzi get a bad reputation for following celebrities. But sometimes stars or their managers will contact paps themselves and tell them exactly where and when they will go.What a love-hate relationship between paparazzi and celebrities!32. Which of the following things paparazzi might do would be against the law?A. Taking pictures of famous people in public places.B. Getting unsuitable pictures of a 10-year-old actress published.C.

What can we infer from the passage?A. Paparazzi always take pictures when famous people are tired.B. Stars hate paparazzi and don’t want to be followed.C. Paparazzi and famous people rely on each other sometimes.D. Informers might get paparazzi into trouble.第二节（共5小题; 每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
