2012年高考全国卷二(英语)

2012年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试英语参考答案与解题提示1．D 2．B 3．C 4．A 5．B6．【答案】D【命题立意】考查交际用语。

难度较小。

【解题思路】句意为：那么今晚我们该做什么呢？由你决定，你想做什么就做什么。

根据题干中“whatever you want.”可知，答案应选D，由你决定。

A别客气，请自便；B说定了，成交了；C没问题。

7．【答案】C【命题立意】考查冠词。

难度中等。

【解题思路】句意为：在跳高比赛中他错失金牌，但在跳远比赛中他还有一次（得金牌的）机会。

根据句意可知，“gold”此处是特指跳高比赛的这块金牌，所以选“the”；“a second chance”意为“再一次，又一次机会”，故选“a”。

序数词前用定冠词时意为“第几”，而用不定冠词时则表示“再一，又一”。

故选C。

【易错点】本题考生会受思维定势的影响而误选A。

因为考生在初中就学过序数词前用定冠词的语法规则，所以看到序数词时首先就会想到自己熟悉的知识——这就是所谓的思维定势。

不过，在高考应试中，考生应该注意，如果发现所考考点是属于初中知识水平时，应小心此题可能有陷阱，这样就能避免失误。

8．【答案】B【命题立意】考查定语从句。

难度中等。

【解题思路】句意为：那天晚上我工作到很晚，关于那天晚上的更多事我稍后会告你的。

根据选项可知，本题考查的是定语从句的引导词；同时从句放在名词之后，用逗号隔开，并且从句中缺少“about”的宾语，由此可知，本题属于非限制性定语从句。

先行词“That evening”在从句中作about的宾语。

故选B。

【知识拓展】在定语从句中，that不能引导非限制性定语从句，也不用于介词后；what不能做定语从句的关系词；when在定语从句中作时间状语。

判断选择关系代词还是关系副词时，可以用“还原法”，即将先行词放到从句中，看它在从句中作什么成分，作主、宾、表时常用关系代词，作状语时常用关系副词。

9．【答案】D【命题立意】考查代词。

Sometimes owners forget that their cats are just as used to the warm shelter (住所) as they are. Some owners will leave their animals outside for a long period of time, thinking that all animals are used to living outdoors. This can put their pets in danger of serious illness. There are things you can do to keep your animal warm and safe.Keep your pets inside as much as you can when the weather is bad. If you have to takethem out, stay outside with them. When you’re cold enough to go inside, they probably are too.I you must leave them outside for a long time, make sure they have a warm, solid shelter against the wind, thick bedding, and plenty of non-frozen water.If left alone outside, dogs and cats can be very smart in their search for warm shelter. They can dig into snow banks or hide somewhere. Watch them closely when they are left outdoors, and provide them with shelter of good quality. Keep an eye on your pet’s water. Sometimes owners don’t realize that a water bowl has frozen and their pet can’t get anything to drink. Animals that don’t have clean and unfrozen water may drink dirty water outside, which may contain something unhealthy for them.41. What do we learn about pets fromParagraph 1?A. They are often forgotten by their owners.B.They are used to living outdoors.C. They build their won shelter.D. They liketo stay in warm places.42. Why are pet owners asked to stay with theirpets when they are out in cold weather?A. To know when to bring them inside.B.To keep them from eating bad food.C. To help them find shelters.D. Tokeep them company.43. If pets are left on their own outdoors in coldweather, they may ___.A. run short of clean waterB. dig deep holesfor funC. dirty the snow nearbyD. get lost in the wild44. What is the purpose of this text?A. To solve a problem.B. To give practical advice.C. To tell an interesting story.D. To present a research result.(B) You may think that sailing is a difficult sport, but it is really not hard to learn it. You do not need to be strong. But you need to be quick. And you need to understand a few basic rulesabout the wind.First, you must ask yourself, “Where is the wind coming from? Is it coming from ahead or behind or from the side?” You must think about this all the time on the boat. The wind direction tells you what to do with the sail.Let’s start with the wind blowing from the behind. This means the wind and the boat are going in the same direction. Then you must always keep the sail outside the boat. It should be at a 90° angle (角度) to the boat. Then it will catch the wind best.If the wind is blowing from the side, it is blowing across the boat. In this case, you must keep the sail half way outside the boat. It should be at a 45° angle to the boat. It needs to be out far enough to catch the wind, but it shouldn’t flap (摆动). It shouldn’t look like on a flagpole. If it is flapping, it is probably out too far, and the boat will slow down.Sailing into the wind is not possible. If you try, the sail will flap and the boat will stop. Youmay want to go in that direction. It is possible, but you can’t go in a straight line. You must go first in one direction and then in another. This is called tacking. When you are tacking, you must always keep the sail inside the boat.45. What should you consider first while sailing?A. Sailors’ strength.B. Wave levels.C. Wind directions.D. Size of sails.46. What does the word “It” underline d inParagraph 4 refer to?A. The boat.B. The wind.C. The sail.D.The angle.47. What do you have to do when sailing againstthe wind?A. Move in a straight line.B. Allow the sail toflap.C. Lower the sail.D. Tack the boat.48. Where can you probably find the text?A. In a popular magazine.B. In a tourist guidebook.C. In a physics textbook.D. In an official report.(C) Facial expressions carry meaning that is determined by situations and relationships. For example, in American culture (文化) the smile is in general an expression of pleasure. Yet it also has other uses. A woman’s smile at a police officer does not carry the same meaning as the smile she gives to a young child. A smile may show love or politeness. It can also hide true feelings. It often causes confusion (困惑) across cultures. For example, many people in Russia smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even improper. Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places (although this is less common in big cities). Some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places; some Americans believe that Russians don’t smile enough. In Southeast Asian culture, a smile is frequently used to cover painful feelings. Vietnamese people may tell a sad story but end the story with a smile.Our faces show emotions (情感), but we should not attempt to “read” people fromanother culture as we would “read” someone from our own culture. The fact that members of one culture do not express their emotions as openly as do members of another does not mean that they do not experience emotions. Rather, there are cultural differences in the amount of facial expressions permitted. For example, in public and in formal situations many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do. When with friends, Japanese and Americans seem to show their emotions similarly.It is difficult to generalize about Americans and facial expressiveness because of personal and cultural differences in the United States. People from certain cultural backgrounds in the United States seem to be more facially expressive than others. The key is to try not to judge people whose ways of showing emotion are different. If we judge according to our own cultural habits, we may make the mistake of “reading” the other person incorrectly.49. What does the smile usually mean in theU.S.?A. Love.B. Politeness.C. Joy.D.Thankfulness.50. The author mentions the smile of theVietnamese to prove that smile can ___ .A. show friendliness to strangersB. be used tohide true feelingsC. be used in the wrong placesD. showpersonal habits51. What should we do before attempting to“read” people?A. Learn about their relations with others.B. Understand their cultural backgrounds.C. Find out about their past experience.D. Figure out what they will do next.52. What would be the best title for the test?A. Cultural DifferencesB. Smiles and RelationshipC. Facial ExpressivenessD. Habits and Emotions(D) ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia –One of theworld’s most famous fossils (化石) –the 3.2 million-year-old Lucy skeleton (骨骼) unearthed in Ethiopia in 1974 –will go on an exhibition tour abroad for the first time in the United States, officials said Tuesday.Even the Ethiopian public has only seen Lucy twice. The Lucy on exhibition at the Ethiopian National Museum in the capital, Addis Ababa, is a replica while the real remains are usually locked in a secret storeroom. A team from the Museum of National Science in Houston, Texas, spent four years discussing with the Ethiopians for the U.S. tour, which will start in Houston next September.“Ethiopia’s rich culture of both the past and today, is one of the best kept secrets in the world,” said Joel Bartsch, director of t he Houston museum.The six-year tour will also go to Washington, New York, Denver and Chicago. Officials said six other U.S. cities may be on the tour. But they said plans had not been worked out.Travelling with Lucy will be 190 other fossils.Lucy, her name taken from a Beatles song that played in a camp the night of her discovery,is part of the skeleton of what was once a 31 2-foot-tall ape-man (猿人).53. The author writes this text mainly to ___ .A. introduce a few U.S. museumsB.describe some research workC. discuss the value of an ape-manD.report a coming event54. What does the words “a replica” inParagraph 2 refer to?A. A painting of the skeleton.B. A photographof LucyC. A copy of the skeleton.D. A written recordof Lucy.55. How many cities has Lucy’s U.S. tour planalready included?A. Four.B. Five.C. Six.D. Eleven.56. What was the skeleton named after? A. Anape-man. B. A song. C. A singer. D. A camp.(E) Make Up Your Mind to SucceedKind-hearted parents have unknowingly left their children defenseless against failure. The generation born between 1980 and 2001 grew up playing sports where scores and performance were played down because “everyone’s winter.” And their report cards sounded more positive (正面的) than ever before. As a result, Stanford University professor Carol Dweck, PhD, calls them “the overpraised generation.”Dweck has been studying how people deal with failure for 40 years. Her research has led her to find out two clearly different mind-sets that have a great effect on how we react to it. Here’s how they work:A fixed mind-set is grounded in the belief that talent (才能) is genetic –you’re a born artist, point guard, or numbers person. The fixed mind-set believes it’s sure to succeedwithout much effort and regards failure as personal shame. When things get difficult, it’s quick to blame, lie, and even stay away from future difficulties.On the other hand, a growth mind-set believes that no talent is entirely heaven-sent and that effort and learning make everything possible. Because the ego (自尊) isn’t on the line as much, the growth mind-set sees failure as a chance rather than shame. When faced with a difficulty, it’s quick to rethink, change and try again. In fact, it enjoys this experience.We are all born with growth mind-sets. (Otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to live in the world.) But parents, teachers, and instructors often push us into fixed mind-sets by encouraging certain actions and misdirecting praise. Dweck’s book, Mind-set: The New Psychology of Success, and online instructional program explain this in depth. But she says there are many little things you can start doing today to make sure that your children,grandchildren and even you are never defeated by failure.57. What does the author think about thepresent generation?A. They don’t do well at school.B. They areoften misunderstood.C. They are eager to win in sports.D. They aregiven too much praise.58. A fixed mind-set person is probably one who___ .A. doesn’t want to work hardB.cares a lot about personal safetyC. cannot share his ideas with othersD.can succeed with the help of teachers59. What does the growth mind-set believe?A. Admitting failure is shameful.B.Talent comes with one’s birth.C. Scores should be highly valued.D.Getting over difficulties is enjoyable.60. What should parents do for their childrenbased on Dweck’s study?A. Encourage them to learn from failures.B.Prevent them from making mistakes.C. Guide them in doing little things.D. Help them grow with praise.第二节根据对话内容…………….选项中有两项为多余选项。

Sometimes owners forget that their cats are just as used to the warm shelter (住所) as they are. Some owners will leave their animals outside for a long period of time, thinking that all animals are used to living outdoors. This can put their pets in danger of serious illness. There are things you can do to keep your animal warm and safe.Keep your pets inside as much as you can when the weather is bad. If you have to take them out, stay outside with them. When you’re cold enough to go inside, they probably are too. I you must leave them outside for a long time, make sure they have a warm, solid shelter against the wind, thick bedding, and plenty of non-frozen water.If left alone outside, dogs and cats can be very smart in their search for warm shelter. They can dig into snow banks or hide somewhere. Watch them closely when they are left outdoors, and provide them with shelter of good quality. Keep an eye on your pet’s water. Sometimes owners don’t realize that a water bowl has frozen and their pet can’t get anything to drink. Animals that don’t have clean and unfrozen water may drink dirty water outside, which may contain something unhealthy for them.41. What do we learn about pets from Paragraph 1?A. They are often forgotten by their owners.B. They are used to living outdoors.C. They build their won shelter.D. They like to stay in warm places.42. Why are pet owners asked to stay with their pets when they are out in cold weather?A. T o know when to bring them inside.B. T o keep them from eating bad food.C. T o help them find shelters.D. T o keep them company.43. If pets are left on their own outdoors in cold weather, they may ___.A. run short of clean waterB. dig deep holes for funC. dirty the snow nearbyD. get lost in the wild44. What is the purpose of this text?A. T o solve a problem.B. T o give practical advice.C. T o tell an interesting story.D. T o present a research result.(B)Y ou may think that sailing is a difficult sport, but it is really not hard to learn it. Y ou do not need to be strong. But you need to be quick. And you need to understand a few basic rules about the wind.First, you must ask yo urself, “Where is the wind coming from? Is it coming from ahead or behind or from the side?” Y ou must think about this all the time on the boat. The wind direction tells you what to do with the sail.Let’s start with the wind blowing from the behind. This means the wind and the boat are going in the same direction. Then you must always keep the sail outside the boat. It should be at a 90° angle (角度) to the boat. Then it will catch the wind best.If the wind is blowing from the side, it is blowing across the boat. In this case, you must keep the sail half way outside the boat. It should be at a 45° angle to the boat. It needs to be out far enough t o catch the wind, but it shouldn’t flap (摆动). It shouldn’t look like on a flagpole. If it is flapping, it is probably out too far, and the boat will slow down.Sailing into the wind is not possible. If you try, the sail will flap and the boat will stop. Y o u may want to go in that direction. It is possible, but you can’t go in a straight line. Y ou must go first in one direction and then in another. This is called tacking. When you are tacking, you must always keep the sail inside the boat.45. What should you consider first while sailing?A. Sailors’ strength.B. Wave levels.C. Wind directions.D. Size of sails.46. What does the word “It” underlined in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. The boat.B. The wind.C. The sail.D. The angle.47. What do you have to do when sailing against the wind?A. Move in a straight line.B. Allow the sail to flap.C. Lower the sail.D. T ack the boat.48. Where can you probably find the text?A. In a popular magazine.B. In a tourist guidebook.C. In a physics textbook.D. In an official report.(C)Facial expressions carry meaning that is determined by situations and relationships. For example, in American culture (文化) the smile is in general an expression of pleasure. Y et it also has other uses. A woman’s smile at a police officer does not carry the same meaning as the smile she gives to a young child. A smile may show love or politeness. It can also hide true feelings. It often causes confusion (困惑) across cultures. For example, manypeople in Russia smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even improper. Y et many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places (although this is less common in big cities). Some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places; some Americans believe that Russians don’t smile enough. In Southeast Asian culture, a smile is frequently used to cover painful feelings. Vietnamese people may tell a sad story but end the story with a smile.Our faces show emotions (情感), but we should not attempt to “read” people from another culture as we would “read” someone from our own culture. The fact that members of one culture do not express their emotions as openly as do members of another does not mean that they do not experience emotions. Rather, there are cultural differences in the amount of facial expressions permitted. For example, in public and in formal situations many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do. When with friends, Japanese and Americans seem to show their emotions similarly.It is difficult to generalize about Americans and facial expressiveness because of personal and cultural differences in the United States. People from certain cultural backgrounds in the United States seem to be more facially expressive than others. The key is to try not to judge people whose ways of showing emotion are different. If we judge according to our own cultural habits, we may make the mistake of “reading” the other person incorrectly.49. What does the smile usually mean in the U.S.?A. Love.B. Politeness.C. Joy.D. Thankfulness.50. The author mentions the smile of the Vietnamese to prove that smile can ___ .A. show friendliness to strangersB. be used to hide true feelingsC. be used in the wrong placesD. show personal habits51. What should we do before attempting to “read” people?A. Learn about their relations with others.B. Understand their cultural backgrounds.C. Find out about their past experience.D. Figure out what they will do next.52. What would be the best title for the test?A. Cultural DifferencesB. Smiles and RelationshipC. Facial ExpressivenessD. Habits and Emotions(D)ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia –One of the world’s most famou s fossils (化石) – the 3.2 million-year-old Lucy skeleton (骨骼) unearthed in Ethiopia in 1974 – will go on an exhibition tour abroad for the first time in the United States, officials said T uesday.Even the Ethiopian public has only seen Lucy twice. The Lucy on exhibition at the Ethiopian National Museum in the capital, Addis Ababa, is a replica while the real remains are usually locked in a secret storeroom. A team from the Museum of National Science inHouston, T exas, spent four years discussing with the Ethiopians for the U.S. tour, which will start in Houston next September .“Ethiopia’s rich culture of both the past and today, is one of the best kept secrets in the world,” said Joel Bar tsch, director of the Houston museum.The six-year tour will also go to Washington, New Y ork, Denver and Chicago. Officials said six other U.S. cities may be on the tour. But they said plans had not been worked out.Travelling with Lucy will be 190 other fossils.Lucy, her name taken from a Beatles song that played in a camp the night of herdiscovery, is part of the skeleton of what was once a 312-foot-tall ape-man (猿人). 53. The author writes this text mainly to ___ .A. introduce a few U.S. museumsB. describe some research workC. discuss the value of an ape-manD. report a coming event54. What does the words “a replica” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. A painting of the skeleton.B. A photograph of LucyC. A copy of the skeleton.D. A written record of Lucy.55. How many cities has Lucy’s U.S. tour plan already included?A. Four.B. Five.C. Six.D. Eleven. 56. What was the skeleton named after? A. An ape-man. B. A song.C. A singer.D. A camp. (E)Make Up Y our Mind to SucceedKind-hearted parents have unknowingly left their children defenseless against failure. The generation born between 1980 and 2001 grew up playing sports where scores and performance were played down because “everyone’s winter .” And their report cards sounded more positive (正面的) than ever before. As a result, S tanford University professor Carol Dweck, PhD, calls them “the overpraised generation.”Dweck has been studying how people deal with failure for 40 years. Her research has led her to find out two clearly different mind-sets that have a great effect on how we react to it. Here’s how they work:A fixed mind-set is grounded in the belief that talent (才能) is genetic – you’re a born artist, point guard, or numbers person. The fixed mind-set believes it’s sure to succeed without much effort and regards failure as personal shame. When things get difficult, it’s quick to blame, lie, and even stay away from future difficulties.On the other hand, a growth mind-set believes that no talent is entirely heaven-sent and that effort and learning make everything possible. Because the ego (自尊) isn’t on the line as much, the growth mind-set sees failure as a chance rather than shame. When faced with a difficulty, it’s quick to rethink, change and try again. In fact, it enjoys this experience.We are all born with growth mind-sets. (Otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to live in the world.) But parents, teachers, and instructors often push us into fixed mind-sets by encouraging certain actions and misdirecting praise. Dweck’s book, Mind-set: The New Psychology of Success, and online instructional program explain this in depth. But she says there are many little things you can start doing today to make sure that your children, grandchildren and even you are never defeated by failure.57. What does the author think about the present generation?A. They don’t do well at school.B. They are often misunderstood.C. They are eager to win in sports.D. They are given too much praise.58. A fixed mind-set person is probably one who ___ .A. doesn’t want to work hardB. cares a lot about personal safetyC. cannot share his ideas with othersD. can succeed with the help of teachers59. What does the growth mind-set believe?A. Admitting failure is shameful.B. T alent comes with one’s birth.C. Scores should be highly valued.D. Getting over difficulties is enjoyable.60. What should parents do for their children based on Dwec k’s study?A. Encourage them to learn from failures.B. Prevent them from making mistakes.C. Guide them in doing little things.D. Help them grow with praise.第二节根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

I was 23 a school bus to make ends meet and 24 with a friend of mine, for I had lost my flat．I had 25 five interviews (面试) with a company and one day between bus runs they called to say I did not 26 the job．“Why has my life become so 27 ?” I thought painfully. As I pulled the bus over to 28 a little girl, she handed me an earning 29 I should keep it 30 somebody claimed (认领) it．ThAt first I got angry．Then it 31 me – I had been giving all of my 32 to what was going wrong with my 33 rather than what was right! I decided then and there to make a 34 of fifty things I was happy with．Later, I decided to 35 more things to the list．That night there was a phone call for 36 from a lady who was a director at a larger 37 ．She asked me if I would 38 a one-day lecture on stress (压力) management to 200 medical workers．I said yes. My 39 there went very well, and before long I got a well-paid job．To this day I know that it was because I changed my way of 40 that I completely changed my life.21．A．As B．Though C．If D．When22．A．successful B．extra C．satisfying D．convenient23．A．driving B．repairing C．taking D．designing24．A．working B．travelling C．discussing D．living 25．A．prepared for B．attended C．asked for D．held26．A．lose B．like C．find D．get27．A．hard B．busy C．serious D．short28．A．wave at B．drop off C．call on D．look for29．A．ordering B．promising C．saying D．showing30．A．in case B．or else C．as if D．now that31．A．hurt B．hit C．caught D．moved32．A．feelings B．attention C．strength D．interests 33．A．opinions B．education C．experiences D．life34．A．list B．book C．check D．copy35．A．connect B．turn C．keep D．add36．A．her B．a passenger C．me D．my friend37．A．hospital B．factory C．restaurant D．hotel38．A．listen to B．review C．give D．talk about39．A．plan B．choice C．day D．tour40．A．operation B．speaking C．employment D．thinking第二部分阅读理解 (满分45分) 第一节语篇阅读 (每小题2分)(A) Cold weather can hard on pets, just like it can be hard on people．Sometimes owners forget that their cats are just as used to the warm shelter (住所) as they are．Some owners will leave their animals outside for a long period of time, thinking that all animals are used to living outdoors．This can put their pets in danger of serious illness．There are things you can do to keep your animal warm and safe. Keep your pets inside as much as you can when the weather is bad．If you have to take them out, stay outside with them．When you're cold enough to go inside,they probably are too．I you must leave them outside for a long time, make sure they have a warm, solid shelter against the wind, thick bedding, and plenty of non-frozen water. If left alone outside, dogs and cats can be very smart in their search for warm shelter．They can dig into snow banks or hide somewhere．Watch them closely when they are left outdoors, and provide them with shelter of good quality．Keep an eye on your pet's water．Sometimes owners don't realize that a water bowl has frozen and their pet can't get anything to drink．Animals that don't have clean and unfrozen water may drink dirty water outside, which may contain something unhealthy for them.41．What do we learn about pets from Paragraph 1?A．They are often forgotten by their owners. B．They are used to living outdoors. C．They build their won shelter. D．They like to stay in42．Why are pet owners asked to stay with their pets when they are out in cold weather?A．To know when to bring them inside. B．To keep them from eating bad food. C．To help them find shelters. D．To keep them company.43．If pets are left on their own outdoors in cold weather, they may ___.A．run short of clean water B．dig deep holes for fun C．dirty the snow nearby D．get lost in the wild44．What is the purpose of this text?A．To solve a problem. B．To give practical advice. C．To tell an interesting story. D．To present a research result.(B) You may think that sailing is a difficult sport, but it is really not hard to learn it．You do not need to be strong．But you need to be quick．And you need to understand a few basic rules about the wind. First, you must ask yourself, “Where is the wind coming from? Is it coming from ahead or behind or from the side?” You must think about this all the time on the boat．The wind direction tells you what to do with the sail. Let's start with the wind blowing from the behind．This means the wind and the boat are going in the same direction．Then you must always keep the sail outside the boat．It should be at a 90° angle (角度) to the boat．Then it will catch the wind best. If the wind is blowing from the aside, it is blowing across the boat．In this case, you must keep the sail half way outside the boat．It should be at a 45° angle to the boat．Itneeds to be out far enough to catch the wind, but it shouldn't flap (摆动)．It shouldn't look like on a flagpole．If it is flapping, it is probably out too far, and the boat will slow down. Sailing into the wind is not possible．If you try, the sail will flap and the boat will stop．You may want to go in that direction．It is possible, but you can't go in a straight line．You must go first in one direction and then in another．This is called tacking．When you are tacking, you must always keep the sail inside the boat.45．What should you consider first while sailing?A．Sailors' strength. B．Wave levels. C．Wind directions. D．Size of sails.46．What does the word “It” underlined in Paragraph 4 refer to?A．The boat. B．The wind. C．The sail. D．The angle.47．What do you have to do when sailing against the wind?A．Move in a straight line. B．Allow the sail to flap. C．Lower the sail. D．Tack the boat.48．Where can you probably find the text?A．In a popular magazine. B．In a tourist guidebook. C．In a physics textbook. D．In an official report.(C) Facial expressions carry meaning that is determined by situations and relationships．For example, in American culture (文化) the smile is in general an expression of pleasure．Yet it also has other uses．A woman's smile at a police officer does not carry the same meaning as the smile she gives to a young child．A smile may show love or politeness．It can also hide true feelings．It often causes confusion (困惑) across cultures．For example, many people in Russia smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even improper．Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places (although this is less common in big cities)．Some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places; some Americans believe that Russians don't smile enough．In Southeast Asian culture, a smile is frequently used to cover painful feelings．Vietnamese people may tell a sad story but end the story with a smile. Our faces show emotions (情感), but we should not attempt to “read” people from another culture as we would “read” someone from our own culture．The fact that members of one culture do not express their emotions as openly as do members of another does not mean that they donot experience emotions．Rather, there are cultural differences in the amount of facial expressions permitted．For example, in public and in formal situations many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do．When with friends, Japanese and Americans seem to show their emotions similarly. It is difficult to generalize about Americans and facial expressiveness because of personal and cultural differences in the United States．People from certain cultural backgrounds in the United States seem to be more facially expressive than others．The key is to try not to judge people whose ways of showing emotion are different．If we judge according to our own cultural habits, we may make the mistake of “reading” the other person incorrectly.49．What does the smile usually mean in the U.S.?A．Love. B．Politeness. C．Joy. D．Thankfulness.50．The author mentions the smile of the Vietnamese to prove that smile can ___ .A．show friendliness to strangers B．be used to hide true feelings C．be used in the wrong places D．show personal habits51．What should we do before attempting to “read” people?A．Learn about their relations with others. B．Understand their cultural backgrounds. C．Find out about their past experience. D．Figure out what they will do next.52．What would be the best title for the test?A．Cultural Differences B．Smiles and Relationship C．Facial Expressiveness D．Habits and Emotions(D) ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia – One of the world's most famous fossils (化石) – the 3.2 million-year-old Lucy skeleton (骨骼) unearthed in Ethiopia in 1974 – will go on an exhibition tour abroad for the first time in the United States, officials said Tuesday. Even the Ethiopian public has only seen Lucy twice．The Lucy on exhibition at the Ethiopian National Museum in the capital, Addis Ababa, is a replica while the real remains are usually locked in a secret storeroom．A team from the Museum of National Science in Houston, Texas, spent four years discussing with the Ethiopians for the U.S．tour, which will start in Houston next September. “Ethiopia's rich culture of both the past and today, is one of the best kept secrets in the world,” said Joel Bartsch, director of the Houston museum. The six-year tour will also go toWashington, New York, Denver and Chicago．Officials said six other U.S．cities may be on the tour．But they said plans had not been worked out. Travelling with Lucy will be 190 other fossils. Lucy, her name taken from a Beatles song that played in a camp the night of her discovery, is part of the skeleton of what was once a 312 -foot-tall ape-man (猿人).53．The author writes this text mainly to ___ .A．introduce a few U.S．museums B．describe some research work C．discuss the value of an ape-man D．report a coming event54．What does the words “a replica” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A．A painting of the skeleton. B．A photograph of Lucy C．A copy of the skeleton. D．A written record of Lucy.55．How many cities has Lucy's U.S．tour plan already included?A．Four. B．Five. C．Six. D．Eleven.56．What was the skeleton named after?A．An ape-man. B．A song. C．A singer. D．A camp.(E) Make Up Your Mind to Succeed Kind-hearted parents have unknowingly left their children defenseless against failure．The generation born between 1980 and 2001 grew up playing sports where scores and performance were played down because “everyone's winter.” And their report cards sounded more positive (正面的) than ever before．As a result, Stanford University professor Carol Dweck, PhD, calls them “the overpraised generation.”Dweck has been studying how people deal with failure for 40 years．Her research has led her to find out two clearly different mind-sets that have a great effect on how we react to it．Here's how they work: A fixed mind-set is grounded in the belief that talent (才能) is genetic – you're a born artist, point guard, or numbers person．The fixed mind-set believes it's sure to succeed without much effort and regards failure as personal shame．When things get difficult, it's quick to blame, lie, and even stay away from future difficulties. On the other hand, a growth mind-set believes that no talent is entirely heaven-sent and that effort and learning make everything possible．Because the ego (自尊) isn't on the line as much, the growth mind-set sees failure as a chance rather than shame．When faced with a difficulty, it's quick to rethink, change and try again．In fact, it enjoys this experience. We are all born with growth mind-sets．(Otherwise, we wouldn't be ableto live in the world.) But parents, teachers, and instructors often push us into fixed mind-sets by encouraging certain actions and misdirecting praise．Dweck's book, Mind-set: The New Psychology of Success, and online instructional program explain this in depth．But she says there are many little things you can start doing today to make sure that your children, grandchildren and even you are never defeated by failure.57．What does the author think about the present generation?A．They don't do well at school. B．They are often misunderstood. C．They are eager to win in sports. D．They are given too much praise.58．A fixed mind-set person is probably one who ___ .A．doesn't want to work hard B．cares a lot about personal safety C．cannot share his ideas with others D．can succeed with the help of teachers59．What does the growth mind-set believe?A．Admitting failure is shameful. B．Talent comes with one's birth. C．Scores should be highly valued. D．Getting over difficulties is enjoyable.60．What should parents do for their children based on Dweck's study?A．Encourage them to learn from failures. B．Prevent them from making mistakes. C．Guide them in doing little things. D．Help them grow with praise.第二节根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
