的“It39。s incredible to think that after all this time, the structure still remains intact and we could one day visit it.”可知令人難以置信的是,經(jīng)過這么長時間,這座建筑仍然完好無損并且我們有一天可以參觀它。也就是說石城最難以置信的部分就是它在水下這么長時間還保持完好,故選C。 (4)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第一段中的“Now, it sits at depths ranging from 85 feet to about 103 feet”可知石城現(xiàn)在在水下85英尺到103英尺。石城在水下很深的地方,所以參觀石城需要潛水,所以最有可能去游玩的是那些喜歡潛水的人,故選B。 【點評】本題考點涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解,詞義猜測和推理判斷三個題型的考查,是一篇文化類閱讀,考生需要準(zhǔn)確捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息,并根據(jù)上下文進(jìn)行邏輯推理,從而選出正確答案。 8.閱讀理解 Looking to have a rest after the working days?Check out to see if the following events are in your area!Northside FestivalDescription: The music festival consists of artists, such as Sidney Gish and Orion Sun, free cake for everyone!

The role of corporate culture is to improve a pany39。s mission and strategies, with longterm hopes of improvements in a pany39。s profit. Mostly corporate culture es from a pany39。s top management. One role of corporate culture is to influence employee behavior, honesty, and pliance(服從). A pany does not have to necessarily create a direct influence for these actions. A direct influence may be a set of written regulations or other policies, and while these may be in place, the corporate culture is usually more of an indirect influence. While many panies try to create corporate culture through the use of written policies, its role is harder to define. The human factor has an influence on how corporate culture is expressed. The way uppermanagement acts and reacts to various situations defines how lowerlevel employees will act, and this aspect may be more important than any written policy. A pany39。s corporate culture can also extend beyond the walls of the business. Consumers who believe a pany to be honest and forthright(直率)may be more loyal in their buying behavior. Employees in a pany39。s customer service department can also exhibit positive corporate culture to outside individuals. In this case, the culture creates a link between the pany39。s employees and its customers. How customers react may be a direct result from the pany39。s corporate culture. Product quality can also be influenced by a pany39。s corporate culture. Companies that focus only on profits may decide to avoid highquality materials in products, but try to suggest that the products are of higher quality than they really are. This negative culture can then result in lower brand loyalty with consumers.(1)What do we know about corporate culture from this passage? A.It is a set of rules and regulations.B.It is the way the employees act.C.It is the values and beliefs of a pany.D.It is the long term hope of a pany.(2)Which of the following is more efficient in creating corporate culture?
