18、urder the referee!”These are common remarks one may hear at various sporting events. At the time they are made，they may seem innocent enough. But lets not kid ourselvesThey have been known to influence behavior in such a way as to lead to real violence. Books have been written about the way words af

19、fect us. It has been shown that words having certain meanings may cause us to react in ways quite foreign to what we consider to be our usual behavior. I see the term “opponent” as one of those words. Perhaps the time has come to delete it from sports terms.The dictionary meaning of the term “oppone

20、nt” is “enemy”, or “one who opposes your interests.” Thus, when a player meets an opponent, he or she may tend to treat that opponent as an enemy. I remember an incident in a handball game when a referee refused a players request for a time out for a glove change because he did not consider them wet

21、 enough. The player went away to rub his gloves across his wet T-shirt and then screamed, “Are they wet enough now?”In the heat of battle, players have been observed to throw themselves across the court without considering the effect that such a move might have on anyone in their way. I have also wi

22、tnessed a player reacting to his opponents intentional and illegal blocking by hitting him with the ball as hard as he could during the course of play. Off the court, they are good friends. Does that make any sense? It certainly gives proof of a court attitude which differs from normal behavior.Ther

23、efore, I believe it is time we elevated(提升)the game to the level where it belongs, setting an example to the rest of the sporting world. Replacing the term “opponent” with “associate” could be a good way to start.The dictionary meaning of the term “associate” is “friend” or “companion.” You may soon

24、 see and possibly feel the difference in your reaction to the term “associate” rather than “opponent”24. According to the passage, players in a game may _.A. throw the ball at the opponent illegally blocking their wayB. keep on screaming and shouting throughout the gameC. 1ie down on the ground as a

25、n act of protectionD. kick the ball across the court with force25. What is the fourth paragraph mainly about?A. The players eagerness to win.B. The players bad behavior.C. The players attitudes towards the game.D. The players totally different behavior on and off the court.26. What can be concluded

26、from the passage?A. Players should be educated to respect referees on the court.B. Replacing the present terms on the court can help reduce violence.C. Raising the referees sense of responsibility can help reduce violence.D. Changing the attitude of players on the sports field can help reduce violen

27、ce.CIn the more and more competitive service industry, it is no longer enough to promise customer satisfaction. Today, customer “delight” is what companies are trying to achieve in order to keep and increase market share.It is accepted in the marketing industry, and confirmed by a number of research

28、es, that customers receiving good service will promote business by telling up to 12 other people; those treated badly will tell their tales of woe to up to 20 people. Interestingly, 80 percent of people who feel their complaints are handled fairly will stay loyal.New lineages for customer care have

29、come when people can obtain goods and services through telephone call centers and the Internet. For example, many companies now have to invest (投资) a lot of money in information technology and staff training in order to cope with the “phone rage (愤怒)”caused by delays in answering calls, being cut of

30、f in mid-conversation or left waiting for long periods.“Many people do not like talking to machines,” says Dr. Storey Senior Lecturer in Marketing at City University Business School, “Banks, for example, encourage staff at call centers to use customer data to establish instant and good relationship

31、with them .The aim is to make the customer feel they know you and that you can trustthe sort of comfortable feelings people have during face-to-face chats with their local branch manager.”Recommended ways of creating customer delight include: under-promising and over-delivering (saying that a repair will be carried out within five hours, but getting it done within two); replacing a faulty product immediately: throwing in a gift voucher (购物礼券) as an unexpected “thank you” to regular customers; and always returning calls, even when they are complaints.Aiming for customer
