FOUR TIPS FOR BECOMING A FRANCHISEE

If you want to become a franchisee, the tips below can help you to find the perfect opportunity. BE FOCUSD ON YOUR PREFERENCE. On the stage of decision-making, the bottom line is: Don't rule out a business without learning or seeing what the day-to-day will look like. For instance, think about a mom returning to the work force who knows she wants to interact with children on a daily basis. Among the hundreds of options there, she needs to decide if she would like to be hands on as a teacher or if she would rather manage a facility that tutors children in math. Deciding between the two is easy if she considers which day-to-day position she would prefer and how that will impact her other goals. BE PROACTIVE WITH YOUR RESEARCH. After you've determined what role you want in a franchise, it's important to start researching different options. Physically visit many different franchise locations and browse the web and then determine what will be a fit in your community. Make sure the franchisor has experience. Before signing on to a franchise, it is essential to ask the franchisor about the executive team and its past industry experience. Find out if the company leaders have had significant experience at another franchise and are now applying that knowledge successfully. READ THE FRANCHISE DISCLOSURE DOCUMENT CAREFULLY. The first thing to look at is how much a franchise would cost to purchase. Make sure you have a financial advisor who can look at that item with you and see the type of profit a franchisee can make on average. It's also important to take a look at the post-termination clause in the agreement to make sure that when you want to leave the business, you know the terms well and your interests are properly protected.

1. Decide on a business with learning or seeing what the day-to-day will look like.() 2. Before you've determined what role you want in a franchise, it's time to start the business.()

3. Before signing on to a franchise, the essential job is to ask the franchisor about the executive team and its past industry experience.()

4. The first thing to look at is how long a franchise would take to purchase.()

5. To make sure that when you want to leave the business, you have made enough money and you are satisfied with that.()

Anew phase in space exploration has begun.The planet Venus is only slightly smaller than Earth; it is the only other object in the solar system, in fact,that even comes close to earths size. Venus has a similar density, so it is probably made of approximately thesame stuff, and it has an atmosphere, complete with clouds. It is also the closest planet to earth, and thus themost similar in distance from the sun. In short, Venus seems to justify its long-held nickname of “earths twin.”The surface temperature of Venus reaches some 900F. Added to that is an atmospheric pressure about 90times Earths: High overhead in the carbon dioxide (CO2) that passes for air is a layer of clouds, perhaps 10 to 20miles thick, whose little drops consist mostly of sulfuric acid (H2SO4). Water is all but nonexistent.Born with so many fundamental similarities to earth, how did Venus get to be so radically different: It is notjust an academic matter. For all its extremes, Venus is a valuable laboratory for researchers studying the weatherand climate of earth. It has no earths oceans, so the heat transport and other mechanisms are greatly simplified.In addition, the planet Venus takes 243 earth-days to turn once on its axis, so incoming heat from the sun isadded and distributed at a more leisurely, observable pace.11. Venus is similar to Earth in _.A size and densityB distance from the sunC having atmosphereD all of the above12. The greatest value in studying Venus should be to _.A allow us to visit thereB understand Earth betterC find a new source of energyD promote a new 、space programText 2Tourists were surprised to see a woman driving a huge orange tractor down one of Romes main avenues.Italys political leaders and some of its male union chiefs are said to have been even more puzzled to see that thetractor was followed by about 200,000 women in a parading procession that took more than three hours to snakethrough central Rome.Shouting slogans, waving flags and dancing to drumbeats, the women had come to the capital from all overItaly to demonstrate for “a job f

考题 What if there had been a way to avoid this trade war well before it started, a strategy thatthe conditions that led to the trade war before they became problematic. A、would address B、had addressed C、would have addressed D、addressed 答案：B解析：本题考查动词的时态。根据题千已有的谓语动词there had beenaway可看出a way就是指的a strategy,空白处的动词与主句there had beenaway属于同一时间，所以空白处也需用过去完成时。第二种方法，从第二个分句的语义着手。本题千意为:要是我们能在贸易战开始之前，找到一种能有效避免贸易战的策略，使该策略，在引发贸易战的条件变成熟之前，就解决它们。第二分句是指:该项策略要能在they became problematic之前，就解决这些条件。所以，发生在一般过去时之前，即为过去完成时。综合所述，本题选B。

考题 问答题In this section, there is one passage followed by a summary. Read the passage carefully and complete the summery below by choosing a maximum of three words from the passage to fill in each of the blanks 51-5.Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet.　　For many years after he formed his Theory of Relativity, Albert Einstein visited many universities in different cities where he gave talks about it. He had his own chauffeur who drove him to where he was to give the talk. The chauffeur sat at the back of the room while he was giving his lecture, and then drove him home.　　One day, the chauffeur said to Einstein, “Professor, I have heard you give your talk so many times that I know every word of it.” “Do you?” Einstein said with a smile. “Let’s find out, shall we? You give my next talk for me. Nobody knows what I look like where we’re going. I’m just a name to them.” Just before they reached the university where Einstein was to give his talk, he changed places with his chauffeur.　　The chauffeur’s memory was excellent and he was able to give Einstein’s talk exactly as Einstein gave it. He did not understand a word he was saying, but this did not seem to matter. Then, as he was leaving the university, one of the teachers who had been at the talk came up to him.　　“Professor Einstein,” he said. “That was a most interesting talk. I’d be grateful if you would answer a question.” The chauffeur hurried on. “I’m sorry,” he said, “but I’m late for my next meeting.”　　“I’ll walk with you,” the teacher said. “I want to talk to you about the problem.” The teacher walked along beside the chauffeur and asked him to solve a very difficult mathematical problem.　　The poor chauffeur couldn’t understand the problem, let alone attempt an answer. He did not know what to say. Then he had an idea. “It’s so simple,” he said. “Even my chauffeur could answer it.”　　He pointed to his car, where Einstein was standing, still wearing the chauffeur’s cap.　　“This man has a maths question,” he said to Einstein. “It’s so easy I’m sure even you can answer it.”　　Summary:　　Albert Einstein was a famous scientist who worked out the Theory of Relativity. He used to travel around the country with his chauffeur giving (1) on mathematics. His chauffeur knew his talk very well so Einstein asked him to give the talk at the next (2) where they did not know him. The chauffeur did well, but afterwards a teacher came up to him and asked him a difficult (3) .The chauffeur did not know the answer but he said, “This problem is so simple I’m sure my chauffeur knows (4) it.” Then he pointed to Einstein still standing (5) beside the car.正确答案：1.talks 文章第一话明确指出爱因斯坦经常带着他的司机到各地演讲。2.university 由第二段最后一句话可看出他们是到大学做演讲。3.mathematical problem 由第五段最后一句话可以看出那个老师问的是一道非常难的数学题。4.how to solve could answer it也就是know how to solve it。5.in his cap in his cap是wearing the chauffeur’s cap的另一种说法。解析：暂无解析

考题 问答题Some people say that computers are making the world lonely and dehumanized. What is your opinion? State your opinion in no less than about 160 words, and write it on the Answer Sheet.正确答案：Many people hold that computers are making the world lonely and dehumanized. I could hardly agree with them and I believe that the benefits brought by computers outweigh their defects. First of all, computers make our lives more convenient than that of before, especially in communication. Chatting on line is much cheaper than talking on telephone and quicker than writing letters. What’s more, computers enrich our lives and broaden our horizon greatly. We are able to get access to news and other useful information all over the world even when we stay at home. At the same time, listening to music or watching movies on line is such a pleasure. Last but not least, the computer has become an indispensable tool of the modern society. Now we have business on line, bank on line, we even shop on line. With computers, we can handle complicated data, which was considered impossible by human beings in the past. In sum, though computers might bring us certain negative effects, they benefit us a lot. Used in an appropriate way, computers could be of great help. (Word Count: 182)解析：暂无解析

考题 问答题Directions:In this section, there is one passage followed by a summary. Read the passage carefully and complete the summary below by choosing no more than three words from the passage. Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet.　　Questions 1-5 are based on the following passage.The City of the Future　　What will city life be like in the future? Some people think that life in the cities is going to be horrible. They predict that cities will become more and more crowded. As the number of people increases, there will be less space for each person. This overcrowding will cause other problems—more crime, dirtier streets, and worse problems with traffic than we have now. How will people find enough drinking water, energy (such as gas and electricity), and housing? Because life will be hard, people who live in cities will worry more, and they may become sick. For these reasons, some say that nobody will want to live in urban areas.　　How can we solve such problems as overcrowding, crime, and traffic? In some cities, thousands of people are already sleeping in the streets because there is so little suitable housing—and because rents are so high. The crime rate isn’t going down. Instead, it is increasing so fast that many people are afraid to go out at night. Traffic is also getting worse. More and more often, traffic jams are so bad that cars don’t move at all for several blocks. These urban problems have been getting worse, not better, so many people see no hope for the future of the city.　　Los Angeles, California, for instance, has no subway system and the buses are slow. Instead, most commuters drive many miles from their homes to work. Many of these drivers spend several hours each day on busy freeways. New York, by contrast, has a mass transit system—buses, commuter trains, and subways. Because the public transportation is crowded and dirty, however, many people drive private cars, and the traffic jams are worse than in Los Angeles.　　On the other hand, some cities have clean, fast, and pleasant public transportation systems. In Paris, France, and Toronto, Canada, for example, anyone can use mass transit to move quickly from one part of the city to another.　　The disadvantages of any modern city are not unique to that city—that is, cities all over the world have to solve the problems of traffic jams, crime, housing, energy, drinking water, and overcrowding. Yet many cities have found answers to one or more of these difficulties. Some European cities, such as Stockholm, Sweden, or London, England, have planned communities that provide people with apartments, jobs, shopping centers, green space, entertainment, and transportation. Many U.S. cities are rebuilding their downtown areas. Urban planners can learn from one another. They can try solutions that have been successful in other parts of the world.　　Summary:　　Some people think that life in the cities is going to be horrible. They say that cities will become more and more crowded and many other problems will be caused by this 　1　Due to the hard life, people do not want to live in 　2　These urban problems such as overcrowding, crime and traffic have been getting worse, so many people 　3　for the future of the city. However, these disadvantages of any modern city are not unique to that city.

For these reasons, some say that nobody will want to live in urban areas”,即,由于生活的艰辛,没有人愿意生活在市内。3.see no hope 文章第二段最后一句提到“These urban problems have been getting worse, not better, so many people see no hope for the future of the city”,因此答案为see no hope。4.Stockholm 文章最后一段第三句提到“Some European cities, such as Stockholm, Sweden, or London, England, have planned communities that provide people with apartments, jobs, shopping centers, green space, entertainment, and transportation”,句中Stockholm与London并列,因此答案为Stockholm。5.rebuild downtown areas 文章最后一段中作者举例说明很多城市已经找到了解决城市存在的问题的方法,美国城市即所举例子之一。倒数第三句提到:“Many U.

考题 问答题Directions:In this section, there is one passage followed by a summary. Read the passage carefully and complete the summary below by choosing a maximum of three words from the passage to fill in the spaces 76 - 80. Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet.　　Questions 1- 5 are based on the following passage.　　Lack of culture, or rather an excess of the wrong sort of culture, is often considered to be synonymous with disadvantage. Most commonly associated with low cultural standards are low levels of reading, and some thirteen per cent of all twenty-three-year-olds feel they have trouble with reading and writing. One way of compensating such disadvantaged young people is thought to be to provide them with the culture they lack: in particular, high quality reading material.　　Whereas forty to fifty per cent of young people aged sixteen to twenty rarely read a book, the majority appear to read comics. In 1991 sales of Viz, a UK comic exceeded one million copies per issue, making it the fourth best-selling periodical in Britain. The reading of comics, however, is not restricted to young people: by 1992 it was estimated that two out of three men aged eighteen to fifty-three read Viz. The number of imitators of this comic has spawned, including Zit, Gas, BrainDamageand Swiz,indicates the extent of the influence it wields.　　The reading of comics was traditionally regarded by the educational establishment with considerable suspicion. Whereas the received arts were always assumed to exert an improving or civilizing influence, comics were thought to “rot children’s brains”, to lower educational standards and to threaten morality. They were, and are, assumed to be an inferior cultural form; their readers assumed to come from the lower social classes, to be low educational attainers and to be easily led astray.　　Over the past decade, perceptions of comics have shifted. Since the 1970s, the comic format has been commonly used to represent the interests of various disenfranchises groups—community groups, the unemployed, welfare recipients of—who became more conscious of a climate conditioned by other contemporary movements such as civil rights, consumerism, self-help and de-institutionalization. As cultural signifiers, comics have become the subject matter of academic courses in cultural and media studies. Indeed, young people’s cultural activities, grounded in the commercial rather than the subsidized sector, are beginning to merit the attention of the arts establishment.　　Summary:　　Low cultural standards，such as 　1　of reading，a difficulty experienced by many young adults, are often associated with disadvantage. While around half of sixteen to twenty-year-olds rarely read books，most will read comics. Although many comics in Britain are 　2　and have lots of readers，the educational establishment sill considers them to be an 　3　appealing only to the lower levels of society. However, attitudes are beginning to change as the format has been adopted to 　4　of disenfranchised groups. Certain comics have been included in the courses of 　5　studies. Young people’s cultural activities are beginning to attract the attention of the arts establishment.正确答案：1.low levels 第一段中间提到Most commonly associated with ... they have trouble with reading and writing.与低文化标准相关联的往往是较低的阅读水平,在年龄为23岁的年轻人中有大约13%的人感觉他们在读写方面有困难。2.best-selling periodicals 摘要中空格的后半句提到and have lots of readers,由此可知空格处应该填与其意思相同的词。文章的第二段指出漫画的销售量很好。所以应该填best-selling periodicals。3.inferior cultural form 文章的第三段提到The reading of comics was traditionally regarded by the educational establishment with considerable suspicion...They were, and are, assumed to be an inferior cultural form,教育家对人们读漫画书持怀疑态度,漫画书被认为是一种次等的表现文化的形式,漫画书腐蚀人们的心灵,漫画书的阅读者被人们认为来自于较低的社会阶层。由此可知摘要中应该填inferior cultural form。4.represent the interests 本题答案在文章最后指出“漫画书代表了许多无选举权的团体的利益”,即represent the interests。5.cultural and media 文章最后一段倒数第二句指出comics have become the subject matter of academic courses in cultural and media studies.漫画已经成为文化和媒体领域中的一门重要课程。故答案为cultural and media。解析：暂无解析
