2012安徽英语高考题完形填空全篇翻译当我定居在芝加哥时,这座新城市对我来说是巨大却不友好的.过了一段时间后,我身体上出现的一些问题(physical problem)使我不得不去医院做一个全身检查。
(thorough examination)这(it指代前面的检查)对我以前面对的事情来说只不过是个小困难,但是这事从一开始(right from the beginning)似乎就糟糕了起来。
从没有过一辆轿车而且对这座城市没有真正了解过的我,每天只得依赖几辆把我从A地送到B地的巴士车。
虽然我给自己预留了很多时间(可能是要做检查所以就起了个早),但是过了一会(soon)我觉得很“奇怪”我竟然快要迟到了(这句我觉得是obvious 显然)。
因为我错误地登上了一辆把我送往相反方向的巴士!(opposite direction)我下了巴士,傻傻地站在人行横道上不知所措(这段我自己修饰了一下).我无助地(修饰的)望着一位试图从我身边经过的陌生人的眼睛,令我惊讶的是她并没有径直走过去,而是在我身边停了下来并询问我一切是否安好(呃。
.).当我向她解释了我的处境之后,她指向了街对面的一座巴士站,一个能让我去约定好的地方(应该是医院,预约了)的车站.在巴士站里坐着等待的时候,我心里满怀感激地想着刚才那个人乐于助我的举动(呃。
),过了一会,我听到附近有汽车喇叭的声音,我转过头去(修饰的),看到车子里面向我招手示意我上车的新朋友,她回来是为了能顺路载我去医院.一个路人给予的如此多的意想不到的善良之举是一个美好的礼物(这句无语,修饰语太多,晕了).当我从医院门口下车时,我回头对她说了一声感谢,她微笑着对我说:不要失去信心,因为任何事都是可能的.(李宁~anything is possible)2012江苏卷的英语高考题的完形填空孤独的概念在数字世界中几乎是不存在的。

Found and taken from the north Atlantic 6 days after the sinking of the Titanic in 1912, his tiny body so moved the salvage (救援) workers that they called him ―our baby.‖ In their home port of Halifax, Nova Scotia,people collected money for a headstone in front of the baby's grave (墓), carved with the words: ―To the memory of an unknown child.‖ He has rested there ever since.But history has a way of uncovering its secrets. On Nov. 5, this year, three members of a family from Finland arrived at Halifax and laid fresh flowers at the grave. ―This is our baby,‖ says Magda Schleifer, 68, a banker. She grew up hearing stor ies about a great-aunt named Maria Panula,42, who had sailed on the Titanic for America to be reunited with her husband. According to the information Mrs. Schleifer had gathered, Panula gave up her seat on a lifeboat to search for her five children -- including a 13-month-old boy named Eino from whom she had become separated during the final minutes of the crossing. "We thought they were all lost in the sea," says Schleifer.Now, using teeth and bone pieces taken from the baby's grave, scientists have compared theDNA from the Unknown Child with those collected from members of five families who lost relatives on the Titanic and never recovered the bodies. The result of the test points only to one possible person: young Eino. Now, the family sees: no need for a new grave. "He belongs to the people of Halifax," says Schleifer. "They've taken care of him for 90 years."Adapted from People, November 25, 200256. The baby travelled on the Titanic with his___________.A. motherB. parentsC. auntD. relatives57. What is probably the boy's last name?A. SchleiferiB. Eino.C. Magda.D. Panula.58. Some members of the family went to Halifax and put flowers at the child's grave on Nov. 5__.A. 1912B. 1954C. 2002D. 200459. This text is mainly about how______________.A. the unknown baby's body was taken from the north AtlanticB. the unknown baby was buried in Halifax, Nova ScotiaC. people found out who the unknown baby wasD. people took care of the unknown baby for 90 yearsBDeserts are found where there is little rainfall or where rain for a whole year falls in only a few weeks' time. Ten inches of rain may be enough for many plants to survive (存活)if the rain isspread throughout the year, If it falls, within one or two months and the rest of the year is dry, those plants may die and a desert may form.Sand begins as tiny pieces of rock that get smaller and smaller as wind and weather wear them down. Sand dunes (沙丘) are formed as winds move the sand across the desert. Bit by bit, thedunes grow over the years, always moving with the winds and changing the shape. Most of them are only a few feet tall, but they can grow to be several hundred feet high.There is, however, much more to a desert than sand. In the deserts of the southwestern United States, cliffs (悬崖) and deep valleys were formed from thick mud that once lay beneath a sea more than millions of years ago. Over the centuries, the water dried up. Wind, sand , rain, heat and cold all wore away at the remaining rocks. The faces of the desert mountains are always changing –-very, very slowly ---as these forces of nature continue to work on the rock.Most deserts have a surprising variety of life. There are plants, animals and insects that :have adapted to life in the desert. During the heat of the day, a visitor may see very few signs of living things, but as the air begins to cool in the evening, thedesert comes to life. As the sun begins to rise again in the sky, the desert once again becomes quiet and lonely.60. Many plants may survive in deserts when__________________.A. the rain is spread out in a yearB. the rain falls only in a few weeksC. there is little rain in a yearD. it is dry all the year round61. Sand dunes are formed when___________________.A. sand piles up graduallyB. there is plenty of rain in a yearC. the sea has dried up over the yearsD. pieces of rock get smaller62.

They are a branch of the great Appalachian family, and can be seen to the west rising up to a noble height and towering over the surrounding country. When the weather is fair and settled, they are clothed in blue and purple, and print their beautiful shapes on the clear evening sky, but sometimes when it is cloudless, gray steam gathers around the top of the mountains which, in the last rays of the setting sun, will shine and light up like a crown of glory (华丽的皇冠).At the foot of these mountains, a traveler may see light smoke going up from a village.In that village, and in one of the houses (which, to tell the exact truth, was sadly time-worn and weather-beaten), there lived many years ago, a simple, good-natured fellow by the name of Rip Van Winkle.Rip's great weakness was a natural dislike of all kinds of money-making labor. It could not be from lack of diligence (勤劳), for he could sit all day on a wet rock and fish without saying a word, even though he was not encouraged by a single bite. He would carry a gun on his shoulder for hours, walking through woods and fields to shoot a few birds or squirrels. He would never refuse to help a neighbor, even in the roughest work. The women of the village, too, used to employ him to do such little jobs as their less helpful husbands would not do for them. In a word, Rip was ready to attend to everybody's business but his own.If left to himself, he would have whistled ( 吹口哨) life away in perfect satisfaction; but his wife was always mad at him for his idleness (懒散). Morning, noon, and night, her tongue was endlessly going, so that he was forced to escape to the outside of the house -- the only side which, in truth, belongs to a henpecked husband.68. Which of the following best describes the Catskill Mountains?A. They are on the west of the Hudson River.B. They are very high and beautiful in this area.C. They can be seen from the Appalachian family.D. They gather beautiful clouds in blue and purple.69. The hero of the story is probably_____________.A. hard-working and likes all kinds of workB. idle and hates all kinds of jobsC. simple, idle but very dutifulD. gentle, helpful but a little idle70. The underlined words "henpecked husband" in the last paragraph probably means a man who.A. likes huntingB. is afraid of hensC. loves his wifeD. is afraid of his wife71. What would be the best title for the text?A. Catskill Mountains.B. A Mountain Village.C. Rip Van Winkle.D. A Dutiful Husband.EEvery year more people recognize that it is wrong to kill wildlife for ―sport.‖ Progress in this direction is slow because shooting is not a sport for watching, and only those few who take part realize the cruelty and destruction.The number of gunners, however, grows rapidly. Children too young to develop proper judgments through independent thought are led along way away by their gunning parents. They are subjected to advertisements of gun producers who describe shooting as good for their health and guncarrying as a way of putting redder blood in the veins (血管). They are persuaded by gunner magazines with stories honoring the chase and the kill. In school they view motion pictures which are supposedly meant to teach them how to deal with arms safely but which are actually designed to stimulate (刺激) a desire to own a gun. Wildlife is disappearing because of shooting and because of the loss of wildland habitat (栖息地). Habitat loss will continue with our increasing population, but can we slow the loss of wildlife caused by shooting? There doesn't seem to be any chance if the serious condition of our birds is not improved.Wildlife belongs to everyone and not to the gunners alone. Although most people do not shoot, they seem to forgive shooting for sport because they know little or nothing about it. The only answer, then, is to bring the truth about sport shooting to the great majority of people.Now, it is time to realize that animals have the same right to life as we do and that there is nothing fair or right about a person with a gun shooting the harmless and beautiful creatures. The gunners like to describe what they do as character-building, but we know that to wound an animal and watch it go through the agony of dying can make nobody happy. If, as they would have you believe, gun-carrying and killing improve human-character, then perhaps we should encourage war.72. According to the text, most people do not seem to be against hunting because___________.A. they have little knowledge of itB. it helps to build human characterC. it is too costly to stop killing wildlifeD. they want to keep wildlife under control73. The underlined word "agony" in the last paragraph probably means______________.A. formB. ConditionC. painD. sadness74. According to the text, the films children watch at school actually__________.A. teach them how to deal with guns safelyB. praise hunting as character-buildingC. describe hunting as an exerciseD. encourage them to have guns of their own75. It can be inferred from the text that the author seems to_____________.A. blame the majority of peopleB. worry about the existence of wildlifeC. be in favour of warD. be in support of character-building2005年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试英语(江苏卷)完形填空On May 27, 1995, our life was suddenly changed.

She began writing early in life, although the prejudices of her times forced her to have her books published anonymously ( 匿名).But Jane Austen is perhaps the best known and best loved of Bath's many famous local people and visitors. She paid two long visits here during the last five years of the eighteenth century and from 1801 to 1806, Bath was her home. Her deep knowledge of the city is fully seen in two of her novels, Northanger Abbey and Persuasion, which are largely set in Bath. The city is still very much as Jane Austen knew it, keeping in its streets and public buildings the well-ordered world that she described so well in her novels. Now the pleasure of learning Jane Austen's Bath can be enhanced (增强)by visiting the Jane Austen Centre in Gay Street. Here, in a Georgian town house in the heart of the city, you can find out more about Bath in Jane Austen's time and the importance of Bath in her life and work.The Centre has been set up with the help and guidance of members of the Jane Austen Society. After your visit to the Centre, you can look round the attractive shop, which offers a huge collection of Jane Austen related books, cards and many specially designed gifts.

The three-day event is not fixed to the same dates each year, but generally takes place in November or December. It is well attended by tourists, but even better attended by locals.During the opening ceremonies, after the official greetings from the government leaders, people who attend the festival begin to march smartly before the viewing stands, and white camels transport their riders across the sands. Horsemen from different nations display their beautiful clothes and their fine horsemanship. One following another, groups of musicians and dancers from all over the Sahara take their turn to show off their wonderful traditional culture. Groups of men in blue and yellow play horns and beat drums as they dance in different designs. On their knees in the sand, a group of women in long dark dresses dance with their hair: their long, dark, shiny hair is thrown back and forth in the wind to the rhythm of their dance.The local and visiting Italian dogs are anxious to run after hares. The crowd is on its feet for the camel races. Camels and riders run far into the distance, and then return to the finish Line in front of the cheering people.Towards the evening, there comes the grand finale of the opening day, an extremely exciting horserace. All the riders run very fast on horseback. Some riders hang off the side of their saddles. Some even ride upside down -- their legs and feet straight up in the air -- all at full speed. Others rush down the course together, men arm in arm, on different horses. On and on they went. SO fast and so wonderful!64.

Before the races begin, ________ take part in the activities during the opening ceremonies.A. musicians, dancers, horses and haresB. camel riders, musicians, dogs and haresC. horsemen, dancers, camels and dogsD. musicians, officials, camels and horses66. The underlined word "finale" in the fourth paragraph most probably means the ________of the opening day.A. first partB. middleC. last partD. whole67. This passage mainly tells readers_______.A. what happens on the opening day of the Sahara FestivalB. how people celebrate during the three-day Sahara FestivalC. what takes place at the closing ceremonies of the Sahara FestivalD. how animals race on the first and the last days of the Sahara FestivalDAnimals can move from place to place, but plants cannot. When an animal is under attack, it can run away or fight back.. Plants certainly cannot run away, and they lack teeth and claws. But plants can defend themselves by using both physical and chemical means.Some plants have their own ways to keep animals away. For example, the leaves of the holly plant have sharp spines (刺) that discourage grass-eating animals. Holly leaves on lower branches have more spines than leaves on upper branches. This is because the lower leaves are easier for most animals to reach..Some plants, such as the oak tree, have thick and hard leaves that are difficult for animals to eat. Some grasses may contain a sandy material; eating such grasses wears down the animal's teeth.Many plants also have chemical defenses. Some plants produce chemicals that taste bitter or cause an unpleasant reaction. Some plants may fight against an attack by increasing the production of these chemicals. When a caterpillar (毛虫) bites a tobacco leaf, the leaf produces a chemical messenger. This messenger sends to the roots the information to produce morenicotine. The higher levels of nicotine discourage the caterpillar.Many plants depend on both physical and chemical defenses. A certain plant in China, for instance, has prickly (多刺的) leaves, and each prickle contains poisonous venom (毒液) A single experience with this kind of plant will teach an animal to stay away from it in the future.6 8. The holly plant has more spines on the lower leaves because most animals________.A. are not tall enoughB. like the lower leaves onlyC. are not clever enoughD. can get the lower leaves easily69. To defend themselves, oak trees use________.A. chemical meansB. physical meansC. bitter chemicalsD. sandy materials70. How does tobacco protect itself against an attack from a caterpillar?A. Its leaves fight against the attack by physical means.B. Its roots send a messenger to discourage the caterpillar.C. Its roots increase the production of nicotine when it is attacked.D. Its leaves produce poisonous sand to drive the caterpillar away.71. What would be the best title for this passage?A. Plants and AnimalsB. How Plants Defend ThemselvesC. Attacks and DefensesD. How Animals Eat Plant LeavesEThe twentieth century saw greater changes than any century before: changes for the better, changes for the worse; changes that brought a lot of benefits to human beings, changes that put man in danger. Many things caused the changes, but, in my opinion, the most important was the progress in science.Scientific research in physics and biology has vastly broadened our views. It has given us a deeper knowledge of the structure of matter and of the universe; it has brought us a better understanding of the nature of life and of its continuous development. Technology m the application of science m has made big advances that have benefited us in nearly every part of life.The continuation of such activities in the twenty-first century will result in even greater advantages to human beings: in pure science -- a wider and deeper knowledge in all fields of learning; in applied science -- a more reasonable sharing of material benefits, and better protection of the environment.Sadly, however, there is another side to the picture. The creativity of science has been employed in doing damage to mankind. The application of science and technology to the development and production of weapons of mass destruction has created a real danger to the continued existence of the human race on this planet. We have seen this happen in the case of nuclear weapons, Although their actual use has so far occurred only in the Second World War, the number of nuclear weapons that were produced and made ready for use was so large that if the weapons had actually been used, the result could have been the ruin of the human race, as well as of many kinds of animals.William Shakespeare said, "The web of our life is of a mingled yarn (纱线), good and ill together. '‘The abov e brief review of the application of only one part of human activities – science seems to prove what Shakespeare said. But does it have to be so? Must the ill always go together with the good? Are we biologically programmed for war?72. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?A. B. C. D.。

肢体语言是无声、秘密但却是最强有力的语言。
它比言语更响亮。
专家称,我们的身体传达的信息比我们意识到的还要多。
事实上,非言语交流所传达的信息约占我们想要传达全部信息的50%.在进行跨文化交流中,肢体语言尤其重要。
的确,肢体语言完全是我们的一部分,以至于我们往往意识不到。
误解也由此产生。
例如,不同社会对人与人之间距离的看法不同。
北欧人通常甚至不喜欢和朋友有身体接触,肯定也不喜欢和陌生人有身体接触。
拉美国家的人正相反,他们的身体接触很多。
因此,谈话中,很可能会出现这样的场景:拉美人似乎跟着挪威人从房间的这头移动到那头。
拉美人为了表示友好,不断靠近后者。
而挪威人很可能把这看成是一种粗鲁的行为,会不断后退---而在拉美人看来,这确实冷漠的表现。
显而易见,当人们在交谈时,还会有很多事情正在发生。
而这只有部分情况是以言语形式表现出来的。
当双方来自不同的文化时,很可能会产生误解。
但是,无论在什么情况下,最好的建议是遵循这样一条黄金法则:已所不欲,勿施于人。

2012阅读高考真题长难句翻译
In my 14 years of teaching in a New Y ork City public middle school, I’ve taught kids with imprisoned parents, abusive parents, irresponsible parents; kids who are parents themselves; kids who are homeless; kids who grew up in violent neighborhoods.I originally proposed this idea to my headmaster after learning that a former excellent student of mine had transferred out of a selective high school—one that often attracts the literary-minded children of Manhattan’s upper classes—into a less competitive setting.I thought additional “cultural capital” could help students like her develop better in high school, where they would unavoidably meet, perhaps for the first time, students who came from homes lined with bookshelves, whose parents had earned Ph. D.’s.Y ear after year, however, we are increasing the number of practice tests. We are trying to teach students to read increasingly complex texts, not for emotional punch (碰撞) but for text complexity. Y et, we cannot enrich (充实) the minds of our students by testing them on texts that ignore their hearts. We are teaching them that words do not amaze but confuse.Aside fro m trying to stop the graying of America’s farmers, her work is made tougher by a recent blog posting that put agriculture at No. 1 on a list of “useless” college degrees.“Never befo re have we had the innovations in technology which have led to agriculture in this country being the most efficient it has ever beenFor those who make journeys across the world, the speed of travel today has turned the countries into a series of villages.Distances between them appear no greater to a modern traveler than those which once faced men as they walked from village to village.Lakes and forests and wild, open plains sweeping past your carriage window create a grand view in which time and distance mean nothingThe holiday maker, too, with limited time to spend, patiently endures the busy airports and limited space of the flight to gain those extra hours and even days, relaxing in the sun.It is a program which provides friendship and fun by matching vulnerable young people (ages 7-17) with a volunteer adult who can be both a role model and a supportive friend.It was a simple letter asking for a place to study at Scotland's oldest university which helped start a revolution in higher education. A 140-year-old letter written by a lady calling for her to be allowed to study medicine at St Andrews University has been discovered by researchers. Written by Sophia Jex-Blake in 1873, the seven-page document, which urged the university to allow women to study medicine at the institution, was released yesterday on International Women's Day."We knew that Sophia Jex-Blake and her supporters, in their effort to open up university medical education for women, had written to the Senatus Academicus(校评议委员会) at St Andrews in an attempt to gain permission to attend classes there, but we didn't know documentary evidence existed.Although her letter was not successful, it eventually led to the establishment of the Ladies Literate in Arts at St Andrews, a distance-learning degree for women. The qualification, which ran from 1877 until the 1930s, gave women access to university education in the days before they were admitted as students.Later-borns don't enjoy that much talking time with parents, but instead they harvest lessons from bigger brothers and sisters, learning entire phrases and getting an understanding of social concepts such as the difference between "I" and "me”.One way children seek more attention from parents is by making themselves different from their siblings, particularly if they are close in age.Girls with brothers show their differences to a maximum degree by being more feminine than girls with sisters.A 2003 research paper studied adolescents from 185 families over two years, finding that those who changed to make themselves different from their siblings were successful in increasing the amount of warmth they gained from their parents.The way most of us spend our mornings is exactly opposite to the conditions that promote flexible, open-minded thinking.Imaginative ideas are most likely to come to us when we're unfocused. Sleepy people's lack of focus leads to an increase in creative problem solving. By not giving yourself time to tune into your wandering mind, you're missing out on the surprising solutions it may offer.So what would our mornings look like if we wanted to start them with a full capacity for creative problem solving?Holidays are really important. Many of us will have childhood memories of summer holidays where we were taken away from home to experience new environments and learn in different ways.Even the cheapest holidays require travel and other additional costs that are difficult for many families to meet.When an annual leave allowance (年度请假许可)amounts to only five weeks,there is a need to spread this across the year. Couples can find themselves taking leave in turn in order to care for children who are on holiday.The lack of free school meals for six weeks can result in pressure on a family budget(预算)and an inability to afford the inspiring experiences that help children to continue their learning.We acknowledge that this change may be difficult for some school staff, particularly whose own children are educated in other authorities(机构). However, this must be weighed against the benefits for city children for whom we all have the greatest duty of care.the existence of mirror neurons suggests that every time we see someone else do something, our brains imitate (模仿)it, whether or not we actually perform the same action.Mirror neurons can undoubtedly be found all over our brains,but especially in the areas which relate to our ability to use languages,and to understand how other people feel.Any problems with mirror neurons(神经元)may well result in problems with behavior. Much research suggests that people with social and behavioral problems have mirror neurons which are not fully functioning.Research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with ever more information concerning how humans behave and interact(互动).Indeed, it may turn out to be the equivalent (相等物)for neuroscience (神经科学)of what Einstein's theory of relativity was for physics.Strange though it may seem —“my wife already does that”was a common response among attendees viewing the device when it was introduced at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) this week —Samsung is just one of many appliance makers racing to install (安装) a large number of internet-connected features in machines in an effort to make them “smart”.The washers and dryers, available starting in the spring, connect to any smartphone through a downloadable application. The phone can then be used as a remote control, so the machines can be turned on and off while their owners is at work or on the bus.But what they will probably really accomplish is what all good technologies do —enable laziness. Rather than getting up to check on whether the laundry is done, users will instead monitor it on their phones while watching TV.。

A篇The Basics of Math—Made ClearBasic Math introduces students to the basic concepts of mathematics, as well as the fundamentals of more tricky areas. These 30 fantastic lectures are designed to provide students with an understanding of arithmetic and to prepare them for Algebra(代数) and beyond.The lessons in Basic Math cover every basic aspect of arithmetic. They also look into exponents(指数), the order of operations, and square roots. In addition to learning how to perform various mathematical operations, students discover why these operations work, how a particular mathematical topic relates to other branches of mathematics, and how these operations can be used practically.Basic Math starts from the relatively easier concepts and gradually moves on to the more troublesome ones, so as to allow for steady and sure understanding of the material by students. The lectures offer students the chance to “make sense” of mathematical knowledge that may have seemed so frightening. They also help students prepare for college mathematics and overcome their anxiety about this amazing—and completely understandable—field of study.By the conclusion of the course, students will have improved their understanding of basic math. They will be able to clear away the mystery(神秘性) of mathematics and face their studies with more confidence than they ever imagined. In addition, they will strengthen their ability to accept new and exciting mathematical challenges.Professor H. Siege l, honored by Kentucky Educational Television as “the best math teacher in America,” is a devoted teacher and has a gift for explaining mathematical concepts in ways that make them seem clear and obvious. From the basic concrete ideas to the more abstract problems, he is master in making math lectures learner-friendlier and less scary.With a PhD in Mathematics Education from Georgia State University, Dr. Siegel teaches mathematics at Central Arizona College. His courses include various make-up classes and a number of lectures for future primary school teachers.If the course fails to provide complete satisfaction to you, you can easily exchange it for any other course that we offer. Or you can get your money back.B基本的Math-Made清晰基本的数学介绍了学生数学的基本概念,以及更棘手的领域的基本原理。

英语高考真题-完形填空【2012全国II】Around twenty years ago I was living in York. Though I had a lot of experience and a Master’s degree, I could not find satisfying work.I was driving a school bus to make ends meet and living with a friend of mine, for I had lost my flat. I had attended five interviews (面试) with a company and one day between bus runs they called to say I didnot get the job. “Why has my life become so hard ?” I thought painfully.As I pulled the bus over to drop off a little girl, she handed me an earring saying I should keep it in case somebody claimed (认领) it. The earring was painted black and said “BE HAPPY”.At first I got angry. Then it hit me – I had been giving all ofmy strength to what was going wrong with my experience rather than what was right! I decided then and there to make a list of fifty things I was happy with. Later, I decided to add more things to the list. That night there was a phone call for me from a lady who was a director at alarger hospital . She asked me if I would give a one-day lecture on stress (压力) management to medical workers. I said yes.My day 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 thinking that I completely changed my life.大约20年前我生活在York,尽管我有许多经验和硕士学位,但还是不能找到满意的工作。

比如说,我们当中有多少人能想到在像德国这样的发达国家中也能发现有人住在大街上?2库尔特马勒和妻子瑞塔11年来一直在为生活在德国首都柏林的无家可归的人做饭。
他们最初是从一个暑假开始的,暑假时间较长,大部分的德国人都外出度假了。
库尔特和妻子留在家里,制作三明治,并且在大街上摆了一张桌子,将食物送给那些流浪者。
3马勒夫妇很快就意识到食物和衣服远远不够。
马勒的妻子瑞塔说:“这些人同样需要温暖和关怀。
”马勒夫妇毫不犹豫的公布了自己的电话号码,并且无家可归的人可以在任何时候打电话。
瑞塔确保有人在家接电话,他们的家总是向那些不想在大街上过夜的人开放。
2012 新课标完型译文
•肢体语言是所有语言中安静的,秘密的并最有威力的语言。
它比语言更大声。
根据专家们(的意见),我们肢体发出比起我们所意识到的更多的信息。
事实上,非语言交际占据了我们真正想表达意思的大约50%。
并且肢体语言显得尤其重要当我们试图进行跨文化交流时。
实际上,所谓的肢体语言是我们自身很大的一部分,以至于实际上它经常不被注意。
并且误解因为它经常发生。
例如,不同的社会对待人们之间的距离是不同地。
北欧人通常不喜欢有身体上的接触,甚至与朋友们,当然更别说陌生人了。
来自拉丁美洲国家的人们,另一方面,却互相碰触相当多。
因此,有可能,在交谈中,它看上去就像拉丁人满屋子跟着挪威人跑一样。
试图表达友谊的拉丁人想离对方更近些。
很有可能把它看作粗鲁的挪威人将继续保持后退----作为回应拉丁人会把这看做冷漠。
•明显地,当人们谈话时,就会产生很多误解。
并且只有一部分在于语言本身。
并且来自不同文化的双方,就有强烈的误解可能。
但是,无论情况是什么,最好的建议是遵守黄金规则:对待其他人就像你想被对待一样。

2012年完形填空Body language is the quiet, secret and most powerful language of all !身体语言是安静的,秘密的和最强大的语言。
It speaks louder than words. 它胜过语言。
According to specialists, our bodies send out more messages than we realize.据专家说,我们的身体发送更多的信息比我们意识到的。
In fact, non-verbal communication(非言语交际) takes up about 50% of what we really mean , And body language is particularly important when we attempt to communicate across cultures(文化),what is called body language is so much ,a part of us that it's actually often unnoticed。
And misunderstandings occur as a result of it .事实上,非语言沟通(非言语交际)占据了大约50%的我们真正的意思。
和肢体语言尤为重要,当我们试图在跨文化交流(文化),所谓的肢体语言是如此之多,我们的一部分,它实际上是经常被忽视。
和误解会导致它。
For example different societies treat the distance between people differently.例如不同的社会对待不同的人们之间的距离。
Northern Europeans usually do not like having bodily, contact(接触) even with friends, certainly not with strangers. 北欧人通常不喜欢在身体,联系(接触)即使有朋友,当然不是跟陌生人。
People from Latin American countries on the other hand , touch each other quite a lot. Therefore, it's possible that in conversation.人们从拉丁美洲国家在另一方面,触摸彼此相当多。
因此,在谈话中,这是可能的。
it may look like a Latino is following a Norwegian all over the room.也许它看上去就像是一个拉丁裔遵循的是挪威人在房间里。
The Latino, trying to express friendship, will keep moving closer.拉丁裔,试图表达友谊,将保持靠拢。
The Norwegian, very probably seeing this as pushiness, will keep backing away - which the Latino will in return regard as coldness.挪威,很可能看到这是一意孤行,将保持后退——拉丁裔将作为回报视为冷漠。
Clearly, a great deal is going on when people talk And only a part of it is in the wards themselves.显然,一个伟大的交易是怎么回事,只有当人们说话的部分是它自己的病房。
And when parties are from different cultures, there's a strong possibility of misunderstanding .当来自不同文化背景的政党,有一个强大的误解的可能性。
But whatever the situation, the best advice is to obey the Golden Rule: treat others as you would like to be treated .但是无论在任何情况下,最好的建议是遵循黄金法则:对待其他人就像是你要被对待的一样。
