考题 Every culture has its own body language, and children absorb its nuances along with spoken language. A Frenchman talks and moves __(1)__ French. The way an Englishman crosses his legs is nothing like the way an American man __(2)__ it. When we communicate with people from other cultures, the body language sometimes helps make __(3)__ easy and effective. For example, shaking hands is nearly a __(4)__ gesture, so people all over the world know that it is a signal for greeting. But sometimes the body language can cause certain __(5)__ since people of different cultures may have different forms of behavior. for sending the same message or may have different interpretations for the same body signal. __(6)__ one's head is generally meant to show agreement “Yes”, but to Nepalese, Sri Lankans, some Indians and some Eskimos, it means not “yes”, but “no”. When an American __(7)__ his nose, it may mean he is disagreeing with someOne or __(8)__ something. But there are other possible interpretations, too. One more example: When a student in conversation with a professor holds the older man's eyes a little __(9)__ than usual, it can be a sign of respect and affection; it can be a subtle challenge to the professor's __(10)__ ; or it can be something else entirely.(1)A、onB、inC、atD、for(2)A、crossesB、crossC、doesD、do(3)A、the communicationB、communicationC、a communicationD、talks(4)A、formalB、friendlyC、usualD、universal(5)A、informationB、laughsC、misunderstandingsD、understanding(6)A、ShakingB、NoddingC、Turning aroundD、Raising(7)A、blowsB、holds upC、turns upD、rubs(8)A、acceptingB、takingC、rejectingD、declining(9)A、longerB、shorterC、higherD、lower(10)A、charactersB、authorityC、temperD、education

考题 Benjamin Disraeli, the famous nineteenth century prime minister, said, "London is not a city, - it is a nation." Today this is an understatementLondon, with its vast range of different ethnic groups, is a world. Certainly, London is the most culturally diverse city in the world. The city was founded by the Romans and since then new arrivals have constantly added to its character and prosperity. Within 10 years 40% of Londoners will be from ethnic minority groups, including the growing number of Londoners of mixed ethnic origin, but most of them will have been born in Britain. Children of Caribbean-Chinese marriages will go to school with children of Russian-Irish couples. None of them will be English but all of them will be Londoners. Most of Britain's ethnic minority residents live in the capital, speaking over 300 languages. Nearly all of the African population and many of the Caribbean population of Britain live in London (83% and 58% respectively)39% of the Chinese population of Britain and 36% of the Asian population of Britain live in London. The largest migrant community is from the Irish Republic with 256,000 people, 3.8% of the total population of London. There are an estimated 330,000 refugees and asylum seekers living in London, with most recent arrivals coming from Eastern Europe, North Africa and Kurdistan. Young people, in particular, are skilled at dealing with a large number of different and hybrid cultures. They themselves often have several different ethnic identities since their parents and grandparents may come from several different backgrounds and their friends and partners do also. They are "skilled cross-cultural travelers" without leaving their home-town.1.Why does the writer think that Benjamin Disraeli's statement is an understatement? Because he thinks London is ().2. London is regarded as the most culturally diverse city in the world due to the following facts EXCEPT that ().3. Ethnic minority groups will make up () of the London population in the future.4. The last paragraph mainly tells us in London ().5.

考题 The food we eat seems to have profound effects on our health.Although science has made enormous steps in making food more fit to eat ,it has, at the same time,made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of all human illnesses are related to diet and forty percent of cancer is related to the diet as well,especially cancer of the colon. Different cultures are more likely to cause certain different illnesses because of the food that is characteristic in these cultures. That food is related to illness is nto a new discovery. In 1945, about 35 years ago, government researchers realized that nitrates, commonly used to preserve color in meats,and other food additives,caused cancer. Yet, these carcinogenic additives remain in our food, and it becomes more difficult all the time to know which things on the packaging labels of processed food are helpful or harmful. The additives which we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to beef and living animals, and because of this ,penicillin has been found in the milk of treated cow. Sometimes similar drugs are given to animals not for medical purposes,but for financial reasons. The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to obtain a higher price on the market. Although the Food and Drug Administration(FDA) has tried repeatedly to control these procedures, the practices continue. Which of the following statements is NOT ture? a.Drugs are always given to animals for medical reasons b.Some of the additives in our food are added to the food itself and some are given to the living animals c.Researchers have known about the potential dangers of food additives for over thirty-five years. d.Food may cause forty percent of cancer in world.

考题 Passage 2 The food we eat seems to have profound effects on our health. Although science has made enormous steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of all human illness are related to diet and forty percent of cancer is related to the diet as well, especially cancer of the colon. Different cultures are more prone to contract certain illness because of the food that is characteristic in these cultures. That food related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, government researchers realized that nitrates and nitrites, commonly used to preserve color in meats, and other food additives, caused cancer. Yet, these carcinogenic additives remain in our food, and it becomes more difficult all the time to know which things on the packaging labels of processed food are helpful or harmful.

Sometimes similar drugs are administered to animals not for medicinal purposes, but for financial reasons. The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to obtain a higher price on the market. Although the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has tried repeatedly to control these procedures, the practices continue. It can inferred from the passage that___. A. Scientists have made all the food fit to eat. B. Only in recent years have people found that the food is related to one’s illness. C. All kinds of cancer are related to the diet. D. Some additives are harmful to our health.

考题 资料:What attracts customers? Obviously the quality of a product does, but visual images contribute a great deal. It is not only the image provided by the packaging that counts but the whole corporate identity of the company. There are now many products and services on the market which are similar in content though produced by different companies. It is vital, therefore, for a company to distinguish itself from its competitors by having a strong company image which is immediately recognizable. Logos are part of this image. They are symbols which often include a name or initials to identify a company. The logo establishes a visual identity for the company, just as different groups of young people express their identity through hairstyles and clothes. All groups from all cultures and throughout the ages have used colors and symbols to show their identity. In different cultures, different colors carry different meanings. Some colors may be connected with coldness in one culture and with warmth in another; some colors represent life in one culture but death in another. International companies have, therefore, to make sure that their logos will not be misunderstood or misinterpreted in different countries. Many companies have, over the years, renewed their logos to fit in with contemporary design and to present more powerful images. Company logos can be emotive and can inspire loyalty by influencing the subconscious. Some logos incorporate an idea of the product; and a case in point is the steering wheel in the Mercedes logo, for example, and the airplane tail of Alitalia. Logos are used on letterheads, packaging and brochures as well as on the product itself. They may also appear in newspapers or on television as part of an advertising campaign. Companies need to have a strong corporate identity. The logo helps to promote this image and to fix in the minds of the consumers. Logos, therefore, need to be original and to have impact and style. According to the passage, what can attract customers’ eyes? A.The corporate identity. B.Quality of the product. C.Packaging images. D.All of above

考题 共用题干 Earthquake1.Every year earthquakes are responsible for a large number of deaths and a vast amount of destruction in various parts of the world.Most of these damaging earthquakes occur either in a narrow belt which surrounds the Pacific Ocean or in a line which extends from Burma to the Alps in Europe. Some of the destruction is directly caused by the quake itself. An example of this is the collapse of buildings as a result of the quake itself. Other damage results from landslides or major fires which are initiated by the quake.2.There are about a million quakes a year. Fortunately,however,not all of them are destructive.The intensity of an earthquake is measured on the Richter Scale,which goes from 0 upward. The highest scale recorded to date is 8.9.Major damage generally occurs from quakes ranging upwards from 6.0.3.The actual cause of the quake itself is the breaking of rocks at or below the earth's surface. This is produced by pressure which scientists believe may be due to a number of reasons, two of which are the expansion and contraction of the earth's crust and continental drift.4.In order to limit the damage and to prevent some of the suffering resulting from earthquakes, scientists are working on ways to enable accurate prediction.Special instruments are used to help people record,for example,shaking of the earth.Scientists are trying to find methods that will enable them to indicate the exact time,location and size of an earthquake.5.Certain phenomena have been observed which are believed to be signs of imminent earth-quakes.These include strange behaviors of some animals,the changes in the content of mineral water,etc.The magnetic properties of rocks may also display special pattern before major earthquakes happen.Not all earthquakes are strong enough___________.A:by the quake itselfB:not be preventedC:to cause damage of property and loss of livesD:of a possible earthquakeE:the unusual behaviors of some animals F: the strange behaviors of human beings

考题 问答题Cultural Attitudes towards Time  According to anthropologist Irving Hallowell, there is no evidence that humans have an inborn sense of time. A person’s temporal concepts are probably determined largely by culture. One study showed that infants, after a few days of listening to speech around them, will move their heads and limbs in rhythm with the speech they hear. As children develop, they adapt more fully to their temporal culture. This temporal culture influences language, music, poetry and dance. It also affects relationships. We tend to get along well with people who share our sense of time.  One particular cultural attitude towards time is found in polychronic cultures. Some Mediterranean and southwest Asian Cultures are usually placed in this category. Such cultures emphasise relationships among people, flexible timing of appointments, and the careful completion of processes rather than strict schedules. Polychronic people seldom feel that time is being wasted. They tend to consider each activity valuable on its own, not just as part of a larger process.  Polychronic people tend to have many projects going on at the same time, and they may shift frequently from one task to another. They change plans often. For polychronic people, work time is not clearly separable from personal time, so business meetings are considered a form of socialising.  Monochronic cultures, on the other hand, are oriented towards tasks and schedules. Cultures usually considered monochromic can be found in northern Europe, North America, and some parts of eastern Asia. Monochronic people feel that time is tangible and inflexible and that “time is money.” They do one thing at a time and concentrate on each thing. Time and job commitments are very important to them and they tend to follow plans rigidly. Also, monochromic people clearly separate their work and personal time, and they place a high value on privacy.  As you might expect, people from polychronic and monochromic cultures often misunderstand each other because of their different senses of time. For example, because a monochromic culture is highly compartmentalized, monochromic people tend to sequence conversations as well as tasks. They would not, for instance, interrupt a phone call in order to greet another person who just came into the room In contrast, polychronic people are comfortable with having multiple conversations at the same time. They would consider it rude not to greet someone who entered during a phone conversation.  Complete the summary below by choosing for each blank no more than three words from the passage.  Cultures may have either a 1 or a monochromic conception of time. Cultures with a polychromic view of time follow a 2 timetable. People from polychronic cultures tend to work on severa 3 at the same time. On the other hand, people in 4 perceive events and tasks as being more compartmentalized. In this culture, jobs and even conversations should follow a certain 5 Everything in these cultures seems inflexible, and has its own place and time.

考题 问答题Practice 1The United States is well-known for its network of major highways designed to help a driver get from one place to another in shortest possible time. Although these wide modem roads are generally 1 and well maintained, with few sharp curves and many straight sections, a direct route is not always the most 2 one. Large highways often pass by scenic areas and interesting small towns. Furthermore, these highways generally 3 large urban centers which means that they become crowded with 4 traffic during rush hours, when the "fast, direct" way becomes a very slow route.However, there is almost always another route to take if you are not in a hurry. Not far from the 5 new "superhighways", there are often older,6 heavily traveled roads which go through the countryside. Some of these are good two-lane roads; others are uneven roads 7 through the country. These secondary routes may go up steep slopes, along high 8 , or down frightening hillsides to towns 9 in deep valleys. Through these less direct routes, longer and slower, they generally go to places where the air is clean and the scenery is beautiful, and the driver may have a chance to get a fresh, clean 10 of the world.[A] connect      [B] relatively    [C] view[D] less        [E] lead       [F] curving[G] heavy       [H] laying      [I] cliffs[J] profitable     [K] lying       [L] regularly[M] smooth       [N] enjoyable     [O] more
