26、Taking Questions

When giving presentations, it is common practice to encourage audience involvement and this often takes the form of questions from the audience. A good deal has been written recently discussing the advantages and disadvantages of various approaches to handling these. 【1】.

One approach is to take questions as and when they arise. Usually there are only a few points from the audience but in the event of receiving too many, the presenter may move the presentation on by reminding the audience of the time, and offering to continue the discussion later. 【2】. Those who aren't will simply have to wait.

【3】. A danger here is that too much time may be wasted on questions and, as a consequence, important parts of other main points have to be edited out. The audience may also confuse the presenter by asking about points that he or she intends to cover later in the presentation. If this happens, it is important to make the audience aware that answering their questions now might weaken the structure of the talk.

Alternatively, mid-point questions can be discouraged by all signing that you would prefer questions at the end. If you take this approach, however, it is import ant to bear in mind that when you get to the end, it may take a little time for people to reflect on what they have heard and to formulate a question. 【4】. To overcome this, it is useful to have a chairperson who is prepared to ask the first question.

【5】. In that case, the safest response is to tell the truth. Then the rest of the audience may appreciate your honesty. It may also be possible to move the attention away from the questioner by asking other audience if anyone else can provide an answer.

A．Another potential problem is unfriendly questioners who ask the kind of questions they know will be difficult to answer.

B．A statement such as "I will come back to this point at the end" should keep most people happy.

C．It is a good idea to be aware of the tr aps that this type of questioners try to set.

D．However, my intention here is simply to present the most common approaches.

E．There is even the possibility that an embarrassing silence may ensure.

F．Seeking a question can be an effective way of moving the session on.

G．Another approach is to ask for questions after each main point has been addressed.

27、The third-generation hybrid rice（杂交水稻）which was developed by Yuan Longping, the "father of hybrid rice", and his team ran its first public yield（产量）monitoring from Monday to Tuesday and achieved high output. The final yield of the tested variety, G3-1S/P19, came to1046.3 kg per mu（about 667 square meters）, based on two pieces of land in Qingzhu Village under the city of Hengyang in central China's Hunan Province.

"Some previous high-yielding hybrid rice varieties in China took 160 to even 180 days from sowing（播种）to harvesting, while the figure was shortened to around 125 days for the new variety. This is one of the most important features（特征）of the third-generation hybrid rice that can reduce the use of pesticides（杀虫剂）and fertilizers（化肥）, thus reducing cost and improving production efficiency." said Qian Qian, the deputy director of the China National Rice Research Institute.

Unlike the previous two generations that required a large amount of water and fertilizers as well as demanding growing conditions and technological support, the third-generation hybrid rice is easier to be cultivated（种植）by ordinary farmers. So the soil, altitude and climate of the test site were not "ideal conditions" carefully selected beforehand but were close to the paddies（稻田）of ordinary farmers.

Nowadays. China's average yield of rice is about 500 kg per mu. Ordinary farmers can produce 600 kg to 700 kg of rice per mu by growing some excellent second-generation hybrid rice varieties. However, under the same planting conditions and environment, the yield of the third-generation hybrid rice could reach 800 kg per mu. China now feeds around 20 percent of the world's population with less than 9 percent of the world's arable（可耕种的）land.

At present, Yuan's team has nine third-generation hybrid rice combinations under trial, which are expected to achieve commercial seed production in the following three to four years and hope to apply the technology into the research of sea rice. The third-generation hybrid rice has the comprehensive strength to promote a greener and more sustainable development of China's rice production with higher quality and yield.

【1】What feature of the new hybrid rice does Qian Qian mainly talk about?

A．It saves a lot more water.

B．It achieves a higher yield.

C．It saves much more farmland.

D．It has a shorter growing period.

【2】Why is the new hybrid rice not tested in ideal areas?

A．The ordinary farmers master planting technology.

B．The researchers want to reduce the experiment cost.

C．The growing conditions the new hybrid rice needs are simple.

D．The previous rice farming provides researchers with experience.

【3】What is the fourth paragraph mainly about?

A．The high output of the third-generation hybrid rice.

B．The future of the new hybrid rice variety.

C．The advanced technology of the research on hybrid rice.

D．The differences between the three hybrid rice varieties.

【4】Where is this text most likely from?

A．A guide book.

B．A news report.

C．An advertisement.

D．A fashion magazine.

29、It is 10 in the morning, and I am travelling by raft down the Li River. The sun is already burning hot even though it has not yet reached full strength, but a calm breeze cools my skin. So far the day is wonderful, but the purpose of my trip is not just to have fun: I am following in the footsteps of Xu Xiake (1587-1641), the famous Chinese travel writer and geographer. Though Xu was from Jiangsu, he spent more than 30 years travelling throughout the country, and greatly admired my destination today—Ox Gorge.

As we flow down the river, we are surrounded by steep hills sticking up into the sky—karsts. Unique among mountains, karsts were formed over thousands of years as rain entered the acidic (酸性的) soil and melted the soft rock, leaving the harder rock behind. Guangxi is full of karsts, giving it some of the most interesting—and beautiful—scenery in the world. Xu was one of the first people to make a careful study of Guilin’s karsts and their related cave systems. He, like many people today, found them fascinating.

Suddenly, our raft hits some rapids, and I find myself covered in water. I turn to my raftsman and we share a laugh. The water not only keeps us cool, but it is all part of the adventure.

What made someone like Xu spend years travelling thousands of kilometres away from home? Perhaps it’s the same reason as mine: to explore the world and to discover new things. Yet, perhaps no one in China travelled farther or longer than Xu Xiake. At least, if anyone did, they did not write about it.

When our raft reaches Ox Gorge, it proves to be every bit as beautiful as I expected—a watery heaven on earth. The raft is tied up, and then I head out to explore. That afternoon, I find a cave on the river. I wade (蹚) into it and the water grows shallower, until finally I am walking on dry land. Up ahead I see a light and hear laughter echoing off the cave walls. There is a large pool of mud, and a group of young people are jumping into it and swimming around. I run and join them. Soon, like my new friends, I am covered in gray mud from head to toe. After an hour of play, I head back out of the cave and take a swim in the river to get clean. And I wonder, when Xu Xiake came here nearly five hundred years ago, did he examine the mud like a scientist? Or did he jump in? Of course he jumped in. You know he did.

【1】Which of the following is UNTRUE about Xu Xiake?

A．He passed away in his late sixties.

B．He showed so much admiration for Ox Gorge.

C．He spent more than 30 years travelling throughout China.

D．He was a well-known Chinese travel writer and geographer.

【2】What does the second paragraph mainly tell us?

A．The author is fond of the steep hills sticking up into the sky.

B．How rain entered the acidic soil and melted the soft rock.

C．Karsts contribute to the fascinating scenery in Guangxi.

D．The author is excited to flow down the Li River.

【3】Why is the raft tied up?

A．Something is wrong with the raft.

B．The raftsman is tired and wants to have a rest.

C．The author hopes to enter the cave on the river.

D．The author wants to travel around the area to learn about it.

【4】What is the right order of what the author does according to the last paragraph?

①He walks on dry land.

②He wades into the cave.

③He swims in the river.

④He jumps into the mud.

⑤He hears laughter echoing off the cave walls.

A．①⑤③④②

B．②①⑤④③

C．③④①②⑤

D．⑤②③④①
