A
One morning more than thirty years ago, I enter the Track Kitchen, a restaurant where everyone from the humblest (卑微的) to the most powerful came for breakfast. I noticed an empty chair next to an elderly, unshaven man, who looked somewhat disheveled. He was wearing a worn-out hat and was alone. I asked if I might join him. He agreed quietly and I sat down to have my breakfast.
We cautiously began a conversation and spoke about a wide range of things. We never introduced ourselves. I was concerned that he might have no money and not be able to afford something to eat. So as I rose to go back to the counter and buy a second cup of coffee, I asked,
“May I get you something?”
“A coffee would be nice.”
Then I bought him a cup of coffee. We talked more, and he accepted another cup of coffee. Finally I rose to leave, wished him well, and headed for the exit. At the door I met one of my friends. He asked,
“How did you get to know Mr. Galbreath?”
“Who?”
“The man you were sitting with. He is chairman of the Board of Churchill Downs.”
I could hardly believe it. I was buying, offering a free breakfast, and feeling pity for one of the world’s richest and most powerful men!
My few minutes with Mr. Galbreath changed my life. Now I treat everyone with respect, no matter who I think they are, and no matter another human being with kind and sincerity.

When a consumer finds that what she or he bought is faulty or in some other way does not live up to the manufacturer’s claim for it, the first step is to present the warranty（保单）, or any other records which might help, at the store of purchase. In most cases, this action will produce results. However, if it does not, there are various means the consumer may use to gain satisfaction.
A simple and common method used by many consumers is to complain directly to the store manager. In general, the "higher up" the consumer takes his or her complaint, the faster he or she can expect it to be settled. In such a case, it is usually settled in the consumer’s favor, assuming he or she has a just claim.
Consumers should complain in person whenever possible, but if they cannot get to the place of purchase, it is acceptable to phone or write the complaint in a letter.
Complaining is usually most effective when it is done politely but firmly, and especially when the consumer can demonstrate what is wrong with the item in question. If this cannot be done, the consumer will succeed best by presenting specific information as to what is wrong, rather than by making general statements. For example, "The left speaker does not work at all and the sound coming out of the right one is unclear" is better than "This stereo（立体声音响）does not work."
The store manager may advise the consumer to write to the manufacturer. If so, the consumer should do this, stating the complaint as politely and as firmly as possible. But if a polite complaint does not achieve the desired result, the consumer can go a step further. She or he can threaten to take the seller to court or report the seller to a private or public organization responsible for protecting consumers’ rights.
45. If a consumer wants a quick settlement of his problem, it’s better to complain to ________.
A. a shop assistant B. the manufacturer
C. the store manager D. a public organization
46. The most effective complaint can be made by ________.
A. showing the faulty item to the manufacturer
B. explaining exactly what is wrong with the item
C. saying firmly that the item is of poor quality
D. asking politely to change the item
47. According to the passage, the last way a consumer has to use is________.
A. to write to the producer  B. to quarrel with the manager
C. to collect several fighters to threaten the seller
D. to threaten to take the seller to court
48. The passage tells us _________.
A. how to make an effective complaint about a faulty item.
B. how to settle a consumer’s complaint about a faulty item
C. how to avoid buying a faulty item
D. how to deal with complaints from customers
C
A debate has been caused by a new book called Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother about Chinese-style tough parenting in the US by Amy Chua. She is also a mother of two.
Chua describes the child-rearing methods she used with her daughters. She said they would seem unimaginable to Westerners.
Chua set strict standards for her daughters. For example, in school they weren’t allowed to make grades lower than As. They had to play piano or violin and practice hours a day. There were no sleepovers, play dates or TV.
There has been wide criticism of Chua’s book in the US. “It is kind of extreme,” Jeffrey Seinfeld, a professor at New York University, told the Los Angles Times. “...standards of parenting need to be realistic and tailored to each child. Children need parents who can guide them, not force them to do things they are probably not interested in.”
Now the criticism seems to have spread to China. Sun Yunxiao, an expert from the China Youth and Children Research Center spoke to The Beijing News about his concerns. He argued that Chua’s method of parenting would limit children from reaching their full potential.
“Some Chinese parents do focus on test scores and good degrees,” Sun said. “but what gets sacrificed along the way is their kids’ capacity fully to develop and to enjoy life.”
While critics might sympathize with kids who experience this parenting style, some young people quite appreciate it. “I think anyone can do well if they work hard enough,” said 17-year-old Li Ao, a Senior 3 student at Qingdao No2 High School. “A tiger mother is there to help her kids work hard.”
Others think that Chua has a point when it comes to setting challenging goals for kids.
“It’s crucial for children,” according to Abigail Gewirtz, a professor of family science at the University of Minnesota. She told CNN: “Honestly, kids need to be pushed sometimes. If you push a kid to do well, and they’re good at it, they benefit. It’s good to have high expectations.”
49. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article?
A. Most children don’t need strict standards to do well.
B. Chua’s educating method is widely accepted in China.
C. Supporters of Amy Chua believe in high expectations.
D. Most children welcome challenging goals.
50. The underlined word “crucial” could be replaced by .
A. helpful B. cruel C. unfair D. important
51. Which of the following statements might Jeffrey Seinfeld agree with?
A. Children need to be pushed to succeed.
B. The tiger mother is no longer popular in American society.
C. Parents should take their children into account when they give them guidance.
D. Extreme parenting produces children who do not know themselves when grown up.
52. What is the author’s attitude towards Chua’s parenting style?
A. Approving. B. Objective. C. Critical. D. Disapproving.
D
