I will interview as many customers as possible and do market research and improve our products. Meanwhile I will take care of my staff so as to make them eager to work to the best of their abilities.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
When Joan gave birth to the first boy in her family in three generations, she and her husband were overjoyed. So were her parents.

But since the baby's arrival, the sisters have become distant. Joan feels hurt for Sally seems completely uninterested in her baby. Sally, who has no children, claims that her younger sister \
Neither Sally nor Joan understands that the real cause of the current coldness is that their family roles have suddenly changed to the opposite. Finally Joan seems to be better than her elder sister--and Sally doesn't like it! Their distance may be temporary, but it shows that childhood competition don't fade easily as ages grow.

Many adult brothers and sisters are close, supportive--yet still tend to compete. Two brothers I know turn into killers when on opposite sides of a tennis net. Off the court, they are the best of friends. My own younger sister can't wait to tell me when I've put on weight. However, she's a terrible cook and that pleases me; I tease her when she comes to dinner. Happily,
despite these small failings, we have been an important resource for each other.
In between the very competitive and the generally supportive children lie those who say that no friendship should survive. Some brothers and sisters stay at arm's length, hut never give up competition completely. Why do these puzzling, unproductive, often painful relationships continue to exist?

【山东省2014仿真模拟冲刺卷】D
For those who make journeys across the world，the speed of travel today has turned the countries into a series of villages．Distances between them appear no greater to a modern traveler than those which once faced men as they walked from village to village．Jet plane fly people from one end of the earth to the other，allowing them a freedom of movement undreamt of a hundred years ago．
Yet some people wonder if the revolution in travel has gone too far．A price has been paid，they say，for the conquest （征服） of time and distance．Travel is something to be enjoyed，not endured （忍受）．The boat offers leisure and time enough to appreciate the ever-changing sights and sounds of a journey．A journey by train also has a special charm about it．Lakes and forests and wild，open plains sweeping past your carriage window create a grand view in which time and distance mean nothing．On board a plane，however，there is just the blank blue of the sky filling the narrow window of the airplane．The soft lighting，in-flight films and gentle music make up the only world you know，and the hours progress slowly．
Then there is the time spent being “processed” at a modern airport．People are conveyed like robots along walkways；baggage is weighed，tickets produced，examined and produced yet again before
