Reading（26分）(A)Meeting people from another culture can be difficult. From the beginning, people may send the wrong signal. Or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship.Different cultures emphasize the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesserdegree. For example, business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust. Even with people at work, it is necessary to spend a lot of time in "small talk", usually over a glass of tea, before they do any job. In many European countries - like the UK or France - people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or cafes rather than at the office.Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures. I once made a speech in Thailand. I had expected my speech to be a success and start a lively discussion; instead there was an unfortable silence. The people present just stared at me and smiled. After getting to know their ways better, I realized that they thought I was talking too much. In my own culture, we express meaning mainly through words, but people there sometimes feel too many words are unnecessary.Even within Northern Europe, cultural differences can cause serious problems. Certainly, English and German cultures share similar values; however, Germans prefer to get down to business more quickly. We think that they are rude. In fact, this is just because one culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly.People from different parts of the world have different values, and sometimes these values are quite against each other. However, if we can understand them better, a multicultural environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other.75. In some countries, eating together at restaurants may make it easier for people to _______.A. keep each other panyB. get to know each otherC. share the same cultureD. develop closer relations76. The author mentions his experience in Thailand to show that _________A. too many words are of no useB. the English prefer to make long speechesC. even talk and silence can be culturally differentD. people from Thailand are quiet and shy by nature77. According to the text, how can people from different cultures understand each other better?A. By speaking each other’s languages.B. By recognizing different values.C. By accepting different habits.D. By sharing different ways of life.78. What would be the best title for the text?A. How to Understand Each Other.B. How to Build Up a Relationship.C. Multicultural Environment.D. Cross-Cultural Differences.(B)Carol was slowly going out of her mind with boredom. After ten years of being a housewife a nd a mother, she could not stand it any longer. Then, one morning, just after her two daughters had gone to school, she saw an advertisement in the paper. She phoned, and was asked to e to an i nterview that very afternoon.The interviewer, Mr. Hollins, turned out to be a young man about 24 in a blue suit. There was a hard look in his eyes and he talked very fast. He told her she would be required to stop men between the age of 25 and 50 and interview them. Eachinterview consisted of a series of questions designed to determine men’s attitudes to cigarettes. The information was to be recorded on special questionnaires and she would be paid according t o the number of plete interviews she obtained.When Carl asked which manufacturer the research was for, she was told that wasn’t really co ncern her. Last of all, before she began to she would have to attend a one-day training-session, Carol accepted.After the training-session, which was really only about how to fill in the questionnaires corre ctly and howto put the questions themselves, Carol found herself in the center of town at 9:30 in the morning. She soon found out that getting the information was really not all that easy.She stopped several men and tried to ask them questions but without success. Finally, Carol spotted a young man witha pleasant smile on his face. He was ing towards her slowly and seemed ready to talk.

Theover-development of motor transport, with its increase of more cars, more highways, morepollution, more its increase of more cars, more highways, more pollution, more suburbs, more muting, has contributed to the near-destruction of our cities, the breakup of the family, and the pollution not only of local air, but also of the earth's atmosphere. The disaster has arrived in the form of the energy crisis.Our present situation is unlike war, revolution or depression. It is also unlike the great natural disasters of the past. Worldwide resources exploitation and energy use have brought us to a state where long-range planning is essential. What we need is not a continuation of our present serious state, which endangers the future of our country, our children, and our earth, but a movement forward to a new norm in order to work rapidly and effectively on planetary problems.This country has been falling back under the continuing exposures of loss of morality and the revelation that lawbreaking has reached into the highest places in the land. There is a strong demand for moral revival and for some devotion that is vast enough and yet personal enough to enlist the devotion of all. In the past it has been only in a war in defense of their own country and their own ideals that any people have been able to devote themselves wholeheartedly.This is the first time that we have been asked to defend ourselves and what we hold dear in cooperation with all the other inhabitants of this planet, who share with us the same endangered air and the same endangered oceans. There is a mon need to reassess our present course, to change that course, and to devise new methods through which the world can survive. This is a priceless opportunity.To grasp it, we need a widespread understanding of the nature of the crisis confronting us, and the world, a crisis that is no passing in-convenience, no by-product of the ambitions of the oil-producing countries, no environmentalists' mere fears, no byproduct of any present system of government. What we face is the oute of the invention of the last four hundred years. What we need is a transformed lifestyle. This new life style can now directly from science and technology, but its acceptance depends on a sincere devotion to finding a higher quality of life for the world's children and future generation.83. Which condition does the author feel has nearly destroyed our cities?A. Natural disasters in many regions.B. The excessive growth of motor transportation.C. Lack of financial planning.D. The breakup of the family.84. According to the author, what is one example of our loss of morality?A. Lack of devotion.B. Disregard for law.C. Exploitation of resources.D. Lack of cooperation.85. By paring past problems with present ones, the author draws attention to the _________.A. significance of this crisisB. inadequacy of governmentsC. similarity of the past to the presentD. hopelessness of the situation86. What contribution does the author feel people must now make?A. Search for new energy sources.B. Outlaw motor transportation.C. Accept a new lifestyle.D. Adopt a new form of government.87.
