 TNPT 74 MASTER COPE ~ WITH KEY 
Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the following questions.
 The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign language and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts.
 Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of negotiation.
 In many international negotiations business abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that Americans represents a large multimillion-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role became that of an impersonal purveyor of information and cash, the image that succeeds only in underming the negotiation.
 In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm that stereotypical perception, while subverting the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on that part of American negotiator.
 Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator.
 Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiation and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
 The invention of the incandescent light bulb by Thomas A. Edison in 1879 created a demand for a cheap, readily available fuel with which to generate large amounts of electric power. Coal seem to fit the bill, and it fueled the earliest power stations (which were set up at the end of the nineteenth century by Edison himself). As more power plants were constructed throughout the country, the reliance on coal increased. Since the first World War, coal-fired power plants have accounted for about half of the electric produced in the United States each year. In 1986 such plants had a combined generating capacity of 289,000 megawatts and consumed 83 percent of the nearly 900 million tons of coal mined in the country that year. Given the uncertainty of the future growth of nuclear power and in the supply of oil and natural gas, coal-fired power plants could well provide up to 70 percent of the electric power in the United States by the end of the century.
 Yet, inspite of the fact that coal has long been a source of electricity and may remain one for many years (coal represents about 80 percent of the United States fossil-fuel reserves), it has actually never been the most desirable fossil fuel for power plants. Coal contain less energy per unit of weight than natural gas or oil; it is difficult to transport, and it is associated with a host of environmental issues, among them acid rain. Since the late 1960’s problems of emission control and waste disposal have sharply reduced the appeal of coal-fired power plants. The cost of ameliorating these environmental problems, along with the rising cost of building a facility as large and complex as a coal-fired power plant, has also made such plants less attractive from purely economic perspective.
 Change in the technological base of coal-fired power plants could restore their attractiveness, however. Whereas some of these changes are evoluntary and are intended mainly to increase the productivity of existing plants, completely for new technologies for burning coal cleanly are also being developed.
Question 34: The word "ameliorating" in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to........
A. raising	B. amending	C. touching	D. following
Question 35: In the author’s opinion, the important of coal-generated electricity could increase in the future for which of the following reasons?
A. The future availability of other fuels are uncertain
B. The possible substitutes are too dangerous
C. Other fuels present too many environmental problems
D. The cost of changing to other fuels is uncertain
Question 36: The phrase "fit the bill" in paragraph 1 can be replaced by.......
A. be used	B. be suitable	C. be paid	D. be discovered
Question 37: Edision electric light bulb is mentioned in the passage because it.......
A. could work only with electricity generated from coal	B. was safer than any other method of lighting
C. increased the need for electric power	D. replaced gas as a light source
Question 38: The word "it" in paragraph 2 refers to........
A. oil	B. electricity	C. plant	D. coal
Question 39: Acid rain is mentioned in the passage for which of the following reasons?
A. It contains less energy per unit than coal does.
B. It increases the difficulty in transporting coal
C. It reduces the efficiency of coal-fired plants
D. It is an environmental problem associated with coal use.
Question 40: What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. Coal-fired power plants are important source of electricity in the United States and are likely to remain so.
B. Generating electricity from coal is comparatively recent in the United States
C. Coal is a safer and more dependable fossil fuel than oil or gas
D. Coal is a more economical fuel than either oil or nuclear power.
Question 41: According to the passage, which of the following is one of the goals of new technology in coal-fired plants?
A. To adapt the plants to other kinds of fuel
B. To reduce the cost of building more plants
C. To make the plants already in use more effective
D. To lengthen the lives of plants already in use
