AGrandma celebrated her fifty-third birthday just weeks before grandpa died of cancer in 1965. Although his passing was very difficult for her, I think their shared struggle to make his life longer taught grandma that gpod health was not to be taken for granted, and she made up hermind to live the rest of her own life as fully and as long as she could. One day, when she announced to attend lessons at the Fred Astaire Dance Studio in Portland, Oregon, where she lived, we rolled our eyes in embarrassment and helplessly wished she would just stay home and bake cookies as normal grandmothers did. Many years filled with countless dance lessons passed before we learned to appreciate the wonder of having a dancing grandma.I suppose grandma’s primary motivation for wanting to learn to dance was social. She had been a shy girl, always very tall and heavy, and had married into grandpa’s quiet lifestyle before developing any elegance or confidence in her personal appearance. Dancing, on the other hand, filled her life with flash lights, wonderful parties, beautiful dresses, handsome young dance instructors, and the challenge of learning. Although the weekly dance lessons did not change her ample, two-hundred-pound figure, grandma surprised everyone with energetic performances on the dance floor, which soon gave her as much elegance and confidence as any Miss American competitor.Having taken weekly dance lessons for years, my grandma learned various dances easily and was soon participating in dancing matches all over the Northwest. When I was fourteen, grandma proudly invited me to watch her compete in one of these matches to be held in the grand ballroom of the Red Lion Inn. My attitude was still unenthusiastic at that point, but to make her happy, my mother and I attended the match. As if to prove me wrong, grandma made a wonderful showing in every event she entered. I thought she was truly the queen of the ball during the dance, and my thoughts were shared by the judges a short time later when she was awarded a gold cup for her outstanding performance.21. What did grandma learn from grandpa’s death?A. Good health was not there for everyone.B. She should take dance lessons.C. She had to struggle to live a better life.D. She should wear beautiful dresses.22. Normal grandmas usually ________ in the author’s point of view?A. took dance lessonsB. did some housework at homeC. took care of grandchildren at homeD. did some exercises at home23. The author felt ________ when he was invited to watch grandma’s match.A. happyB. proudC. excitedD. uninterestedBNot all memories are sweet. Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars. Often they relive these experiences in nightmares.Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce, or possibly wipe out, the effect of painful memories.In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are wiped out . They are not sure to what degree people’s memories are affected.The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it.Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers, troubling memories after war.They, say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories.“Some memories can ruin people’s lives. They come back to you when you don’t want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions,” said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. “This could relieve a lot of tha t suffering.”But those who are against the research say that maybe the pills can change people’s memories and changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity. They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past.“All of us can t hink of bad events in our lives that were terrible at the time but make us who we are . I’m not sure we want to wipe those memories out.” Said Rebcca Dresser, a medical ethicist.24. The passage is mainly about ________A. a new medical inventionB. a new research on the pillC. a way of wiping out painful memoriesD. an argument about the research on thepill25. The drug tested on people can ________A. cause the brain to fix memoriesB. stop people remembering bad experiencesC. prevent body producing certain chemicalsD. wipe out the emotional effect of memories26. We can infer from the passage that ________A. people doubt the effect of the pillsB. the pills will certainly stop people’s emotional memoriesC. taking the pill will do harm to people’s physical healthD. the pill has already been produced and used by the public in the US27. Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with in the last paragraph?A. Some memories can ruin peopled lives.B. People want to get rid of bad memories.C. Experiencing bad events makes us different from others.D. The pill will reduce people’s sufferings from bad memories.CI was born and raised in Minnesota, the USA, but as an adult I have mostly lived in Europe and Africa. I teach cross-cultural management at the International Business School near Paris. For the last 15 years, I’ve studied how people in different parts of the world build trust, communicate, and make decisions especially in the workplace.While traveling in Tokyo recently with Japanese colleague, I gave a short talk to a group of 20 managers. At the end, I asked whether there were any questions or comments.No hands went up, so I went to sit down. My colleague whispered to me, “I think there actually were some comments, Erin. Do you mind if I try?” I agreed, but I guessed it a waste of breath.He asked the group again, “Any comments or questions?”Still, no one raised a hand, but this time he looked very carefully at each person in the silent audience.Gesturing to one of them, he said, “Do you have something to add?” To my amazement, she responded “Yes,thank you.” and asked me a very interesting question.My colleague repeated this several times, looking directly at the audience and asking for more questions orcomments.After the session, I asked my colleague, “How do you know that those people had questions?” He hesitated, not sure how to explain it, and then said, “It has to do with how bright their eyes are.”He continued, “In Japan,we don’t make as much direct eye contact as you do in th e West. So when you asked if there were any comments, most people were not looking directly at you. But a few people in the group were looking right at you, and their eyes were bright. That indicates that they would be happy to have you call on them.”I thought to myself I would never have learned from my upbringing in Minnesota.Since then, I try to focus on understanding behavior in other cultures I encounter,and keep finding the bright-eyes in the room.28. What can we conclude from the first paragraph?A. Life in Minnesota has made the author worn out.B. The author enjoys traveling around the world.C. Different cultures are kind of familiar to the author.D. The author may start his own business in the future.29. Hearing the colleague whispering, the author ________.A. went back to his seat and got seatedB. knew his colleague had some questionsC. owed a big debt of gratitude to his colleagueD. thought his colleague would get nowhere30. Where does the author’s colleague probably come from?A. Japan.B. America.C. Africa.D. France31. Which is the proper title for the passage?A. Focusing on Behavior in Cultures.B. Looking at Another Culture in the Eye.C. Sharing Different Cultures in Tokyo.D. Admiring the Beauty in the Eye.D“Can’t hold a candle to” is a popular expression.When there wasn’t electricity, someonewould have a servant light his way by holding a candle.

Now, it means such a person cannot compare or compete.Another expression is “hold your tongue.” It means to be still and not talk. “Hold your tongue”is not something you would tell a friend. But a parent or teacher might use the .expression to quiet a noisy child.“Hold out” is an expression one hears often in. sports reports and labor news. It means to refuse to pl ay or work. Professional football and baseball players “hold out” if their team refuses to pay them what they think they are worth.The expression “hold up” has severa l different meanings.One is a robbery. A man with a gun may say, “This is a hold up. Give me your money.” Another meaning is to delay. A driver who was held up by heavy traffic might be late for work.

As you leave for school, your brother may say, “Hold on, you forgot your book.” It is used to ask a telephone caller to wait and not hang up his telephone.Our final expression is “hold the line.” That means to keep a problem or situation from getting worse—to hold steady.
