【題目】閱讀下面短文，在空白處填入1個適當(dāng)?shù)膯卧~或括號內(nèi)單詞的正確形式。

Generally we know a little about the western people and their ways of life. When the difference is 【1】(wide) than our expectation, it becomes a cultural shock.

Cultural 【2】 (shock) may come in different ways. Once my friend, 【3】 businessman, after concluding a business with his suppliers in Hangzhou, 【4】 (whisper)to me, “Do we have to dine (進(jìn)餐) together with them? ”I knew he was not sure of our dinner culture and reassured (使安心) him, “Yes, if you wish, 【5】 not necessary.” He did choose to dine with the suppliers but I don't think he enjoyed it. Hard as I tried 【6】 (focus) the dialogue on my friend, the suppliers always talked to me, 【7】 (leave) my friend seated there listening to a(n) 【8】 (relevant) conversation.

People who are familiar 【9】 Chinese ways know Chinese people drink hot water, and always remind their friends not to drink 【10】 (direct)when they receive a cup of water. I, too, don't take any chance, either ask my clients whether they need chilled water or normal or remind them the water might be hot.

China is an open country now and the cultural exchange has been quite frequent over the last 30 years. Such cultural shocks are less and less shocking.

【答案】

【1】wider

【2】shocks

【3】a

【4】whispered

【5】but

【6】to focus

【7】leaving

【8】irrelevant

【9】with

【10】directly

【解析】

本文是說明文。作者通過親身經(jīng)歷，說明了交往中的文化沖擊現(xiàn)象及表現(xiàn)形式。隨著中國的發(fā)展，文化沖擊的影響越來越小。

【1】

考查形容詞。句意：當(dāng)差異超出我們的預(yù)期時，它就變成了文化沖擊。根據(jù)than our expectation可知用比較級，故填wider。

【2】

考查名詞復(fù)數(shù)。根據(jù)上文a cultural shock可知shock是可數(shù)名詞，此處表示泛指文化沖擊，用復(fù)數(shù)形式，故填shocks。

【3】

考查冠詞。根據(jù)my friend可知指的是一個人，表示我的朋友是一名商人，businessman開頭是輔音因素，故填a。

【4】

考查動詞時態(tài)。此處講述過去發(fā)生的事，與下文所給動詞knew和 reassured一致也用一般過去時，故填whispered。

【5】

考查連詞。句意：如果你愿意的話，可以，但不是必須的。Yes和是not necessary是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，故填but。

【6】

考查動詞不定式。此處表示“努力做某事”是try to do sth.后加不定式，故填to focus。

【7】

考查非謂語動詞。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知句中已有謂語動詞，此處應(yīng)該用非謂語動詞。句中主語和動詞leave是主動關(guān)系，用現(xiàn)在分詞作狀語，故填leaving。

【8】

考查形容詞。句意：盡管我努力把對話的重點(diǎn)放在我的朋友身上，但供應(yīng)商總是跟我說話，讓我的朋友坐在那里聽著不相干的對話。根據(jù)句意可知供應(yīng)商總是跟我說話，讓我的朋友坐在那里聽，所以這些談話和朋友是不相干的，故填relevant 的反義詞irrelevant。

【9】

考查介詞。此處主語是人，表示“熟悉……”是be familiar with…，為固定短語。故填with。

【10】

考查副詞。此處表示“直接喝”，修飾動詞drink，用副詞，故填directly。

【題目】 Friends should always be honest with you, right? So when they lie, it can be really hard to take. You want to trust your friends and that means knowing that they’ll tell it to you straight no matter what it is. 【1】Why does this happen?

【2】

One of the biggest reasons friends lie is simply to avoid hurting your feelings. Some people don’t understand the difference between being gently honest with a friend and being so straightforward that they leave a verbal wound. They choose to avoid these two extremes in the form of a lie.

They feel embarrassed.

Sometimes friends will lie about things in their life because they are too embarrassed to admit the truth. Maybe they are going through a rough time and they just don’t want you to know about it. Avoid trying to badger ( 糾 纏 ) your friends into telling you what’s wrong.【3】

Avoid an argument with you.

Perhaps your friends know that if they tell you the truth, you’ll get angry with them. Make sure that if a friend tells you something unpleasant, you don’t overact.【4】 If you do end up arguing, do it in a respectable way.

Exclude you.

Lying isn’t always a sign that friends are trying to protect you, however. 【5】 When you find out with certainty that your friend is lying to you, try and face it. If you feel your friend is lying because he or she doesn’t want to be around you, that’s your wake-up to move on.

A.Protect your feelings.

B.They want to be your closer friends.

C.But a friend who lies isn’t always trying to hurt you.

D.Consider what’s being said and why your friend is telling you this.

E.Being honest and making a sincere effort can keep the friendship strong.

F.Sometimes they lie because they don’t want you to be included in their plans.

G.Instead, make it clear that you are there for them when and if they are ready to talk.

【題目】 Despite the countless differences between people’s characters and careers, or their likes and their dislikes, it seems that we are all connected in this wonderful life by one thing: namely, seeking happiness.

Happiness means, naturally, different things to different people. For myself, happiness is synonymous（同義的）with horse riding, Cadbury’s Creme Eggs and spending time with my friends. Some people are at their happiest at home, while others find their happiness through travelling far-off foreign lands. Happiness can be as simple as a surprise bunch of fresh flowers or a really strong coffee, just when you need it most. Sometimes, happiness comes from spending time with loved ones; for others, it’s having a well-earned quiet night at home, with nothing but a comfortable bed for company.

Since it comes in so many shapes and sizes, it’s sometimes easy to take happiness for granted. It is especially true if it’s been “one of those days”. Maybe you overslept, missed the bus and had to walk to school in the rain, only to be told that you were late. Or perhaps, because of work, you had to cancel plans with friends, despite looking forward to seeing them for ages. Forgotten keys, delayed flights, an argument with your parents, illness or injury... all very frustrating, and understandably guaranteed to make you feel unhappy.

Luckily, there are a few simple, scientifically proven ways to make the glass seem half-full again. To start with, things like trying out cycling or walking instead of driving to work and listening to music are great moodboosters（情緒助推器）. Volunteering and getting involved with a charity are two ways in which you can become happier through helping others. Last, but certainly not least, try hugging your way to happiness; it’s been suggested that we humans need a minimum（最少的）of five hugs a day. If you’ve been having a bad day, there’s nothing better than a good old bear-hug.

【1】What would be the main idea of Paragraph 2?

A.Happiness comes from different things.

B.Fresh flowers can give you a surprise.

C.Some people enjoy themselves at home.

D.It is pleasant to spend time with close friends.

【2】The underlined part “one of those days” may refer to a day when .

A.it is easy to be happy

B.you go to work on time

C.you have a coffee at home

D.you tend to be sad at your life

【3】To tell us that people are easy to take happiness for granted, the writer .

A.performs an experimentB.provides some examples

C.tells an interesting storyD.brings up some problems

【4】Where does the passage come from?

A.In a scientific report.B.In an advertisement.

C.In a guidebook.D.In a novel.

【題目】 Increasingly, Americans are becoming their own doctors, by going online to diagnose their symptoms, order home health tests or medical devices, or even self-treat their illnesses with drugs from Internet pharmacies （藥店）.Some avoid doctors because of the high cost of medical care, especially if they lack health insurance. Or they may stay away because they find it embarrassing to discuss their weight, smoking, alcohol consumption or couch potato habits. Patients may also fear what they might learn about their health, or they distrust physicians because of negative experiences in the past. But playing doctor can also be a deadly game.

Every day, more than six million Americas turn to the Internet for medical answers—most of them aren't nearly sceptical enough of what they find. A 2002 survey by the Pew Internet & American life Project found that 72 percent of those surveyed believe all or most of what they read on health websites. They shouldn't look up " headache," and the chances of finding reliable and complete information, free from a motivation for commercial gain, are only one in ten, reports an April 2005 Brown Medical School study. Of the 169 websites the researchers rated, only 16 are scored as "high quality.” Recent studies have found faulty facts about all sorts of other disorders, causing one research team to warn that a large amount of incomplete, inaccurate and even dangerous information exists on the Internet.

The problem is that most people don't know the safe way to surf the Web. "They use a search engine like Google, get 18 trillion choices and start clicking. But that's risky, because almost anybody can put up a site that looks authoritative (權(quán)威的)，so it's hard to know if what you’re reading is reasonable or not,” says Dr. Sarah Bass from the National Cancer Institute.

【1】According to the text, an increasing number of Americans .

A.are suffering from mental disorders

B.turn to Internet pharmacies for help

C.like to play deadly games with doctors

D.are sceptical about surfing medical websites

【2】Why do some Americans stay away from doctors?

A.They find medical devices easy to operate.

B.They prefer to be diagnosed online by doctors.

C.They are afraid to face the truth of their health.

D.They are afraid to misuse their health insurance.

【3】What can we learn according to the study of Brown Medical School?

A.More than 6 million Americans distrust doctors.

B.Only 1/10 of medical websites aim to make a profit.

C.About 1/10 of the websites surveyed are of high quality.

D.72% of health websites offer incomplete and faulty facts.

【4】Which of the following is the author's main argument?

A.It's cheap to self-treat your own illness.

B.It's embarrassing to discuss your bad habits.

C.It's reasonable to look up a medical website.

D.It's dangerous to be your own doctor.

【題目】 According to a recent investigation conducted by the Associated Press(美聯(lián)社), many Google services on both Android and iPhone devices store records of user location data, and the bad news is that they do it even if the users have turned off the Location History on devices.

Google replied to the study with the following statement, “There are a number of different ways that Google may use location to improve people’s experience, including Location History, Web and App Activity, and through device-level Location Services. We provide clear descriptions of these tools, and strong controls so people can turn them on or off, and delete their histories at any time.”

That isn’t true. Even with Location History paused, some Google apps automatically store time-stamped location data without asking. The Associated Press has used location data from an Android smartphone with Location History turned off to design a map of the movements of Princeton researcher Gunes Acar. The news agency was able to track his movements and identify visited locations, including his home address.

“The privacy issue affects some two billion users of devices that run Google’s Android operating software and hundreds of millions of worldwide iPhone users who rely on Google for maps or search.” continues the Associated Press. Jonathan Mayer, a Princeton researcher and former chief technologist with the FCC remarked that location history data should be deleted when the users switch off the Location History. “If you’re going to allow users to turn off something called Location History, then all the places where you keep location history should be turned off.” Mayer said, “That seems like a pretty straightforward position to have.”

【1】What is the Associated Press really concerned about?

A.Google fails to improve users’ experience.

B.Google is able to record users’ location history.

C.Users can’t prevent their location data from being recorded.

D.Users are not informed of how to delete their location history.

【2】How does the Associated Press prove that Google is lying?

A.By designing a map of Gunes Acar’s home.B.By tracking the movement of Gunes Acar.

C.By checking Google’s operating software.D.By comparing Google’s location history data.

【3】The purpose of writing the passage is to .

A.encourage the improvement of Google apps

B.warn the public of their over dependence on Google apps

C.raise public concern over privacy issue caused by Google apps

D.appreciate the Associated Press’s contributions to scientific research

【4】Which section of a newspaper is the text probably from?

A.Culture.B.Entertainment.C.Finance.D.Technology.
