Fluency(流利) in another language is one of the most important aims of a newcomer to another country. In addition, understanding the culture and learning to communicate comfortably with people of that culture are as important as learning the rules of the language. Language learning and culture learning go together and may take a long time.?
Sometimes people feel that they understand a culture after a few weeks or months. People do learn a lot when they first begin living in another culture, but this is only the first stage of learning. It usually involves(含包) things like learning everyday activities and some basic customs.?
To really understand another culture, people have to go beyond the first stage, This is challenge because it is often difficult to know what to learn. Much of what we call “culture” is hard to see.?
Culture is like an iceberg. Picture in your mind a huge iceberg in the ocean. The only part of the iceberg that you see is the tip. You don’t see the rest of the iceberg because it is hidden from sight in the water. It is easy to forget that it is there. Most of the iceberg is deep within the ocean, just as much of a culture is deep within its people.?
When you meet someone from another culture, certain culture differences are obvious: You hear another language or you hear your own language spoken with an accent. You see different foods, clothes and sometimes physical characteristics of people. You observe new customs or habits, such as the use of chopsticks, and, bowing or kissing on both cheeks as a greeting. These differences are interesting and important, but they are usually not too difficult to understand. They are visible so they are seen easily and quickly.?
The part of culture that is like the underwater part of the iceberg consists of assumptions(設(shè)想), communication styles, values, and beliefs about what is right and wrong. The hidden part of culture affects much of a person’s way of thinking and communicating. It is the meaning behind his or her verbal (言語的) and nonverbal language. Learning to communicate well with people from another culture involves becoming aware of the hidden part of culture.
61.What’s the subject of this passage?
A. Learning about culture.          B. Language learning.
C. The hidden part of the iceberg.    D. Fluency in another language.
62.What is learning about culture?
A. Learning the hidden part of the iceberg, which is underwater.
B. Learning everyday activities and some basic customs.
C. Learning the culture of an iceberg.
D. Learning the visible as well as the hidden differences of culture.
63.What’s the writer’s opinion?
A. Communication styles can be easily seen and learned.
B. Language learning is more important than culture learning.
C. Learning about culture is not easy and may take a long time.
D. People usually learn a culture after a few weeks or months.
64.The underlined phrase “consists of” can be replaced by “______”.
A. lies in         B. is made up of         C. agrees with         D. is different from
65.What conclusion can we draw after reading this passage?
A. Values and beliefs are like the tip of the iceberg.
B. People often become aware of the hidden part of culture.
C. The tip of the iceberg is larger than the hidden part.
D. The hidden part of culture has a great effect on people’s communication styles.

III. 閱讀理解(共15小題;每小題2分,滿分30分)
閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A、B、C和D項(xiàng)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng),并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。                                      
Few laws are so effective that you can see results just days after they take effect. But in the nine days since the federal cigarette tax more than doubled----to $1.01 per pack---smokers have jammed telephone ‘quit lines’ across the country seeking to kick the habit.
This is not a surprise to public health advocates. They’ve studied the effect of state tax increases for years, finding that smokers, especially teens, are price sensitive. Nor is it a shock to the industry, which fiercely fights every tax increase.
The only wonder is that so many states insist on closing their ears to the message. Tobacco taxes improve public health, they raise money and most particularly, they deter people from taking up the habit as teens, which is when nearly all smokers are addicted. Yet the rate of taxation varies widely.
In Manhattan, for instance, which has the highest tax in the nation, a pack of Marlboro Light Kings cost $10.06 at one drugstore Wednesday. In Charleston, S.C., where the 7-cent-a-pack tax is the lowest in the nation, the price was $4.78.
The influence is obvious.
In New York, high school smoking hit a new low in the latest surveys----13.8%, far below the national average. By comparison, 26 % of high school students smoke in Kentucky, Other low-tax states have similarly depressing teen-smoking records.
Hal Rogers, Representative from Kentucky, like those who are against high tobacco taxes, argues that the burden of the tax falls on low-income Americans “who choose to smoke.”
That’s true. But there is more reason in keeping future generations of low-income workers from getting hooked in the first place.  As for today’s adults, if the new tax drives them to quit, they will have more to spend on their families, cut their risk of cancer and heart disease and feel better.
1. The text is mainly about___________.
A  the price of cigarettes                      
B  the rate of teen smoking
C  the effect of tobacco tax increase          
D  the differences in tobacco tax rate
2. What does the author think is a surprise?
A  Teen smokers are price sensitive.
B  Some states still keep the tobacco tax low.
C  Tobacco taxes improve public health.
D  Tobacco industry fiercely fights the tax rise.
3. The underlined word "deter" in Paragraph 3 most probably means      .
A. discourage   B. remove      C. benefit         D. free
4. Rogers’ attitude towards the low-income smokers might be that of     .
A. tolerance        B. unconcern      C. doubt             D. sympathy
5. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. The new tax will be beneficial in the long run.
B. Low-income Americans are more likely to fall ill.
C. Future generations will be hooked on smoking.
D. Adults will depend more on their families.

The naive fellow has never met a thief and firmly believes that he lives in a world without thieves. And, the female thief fights against other thieves only to protect this guy's "daydream". Sound strange? Then go to the cinema to see what happens in "A World Without Thieves" (Tianxia Wuzei). It's the latest offering from Chinese director Feng Xiaogang. The film will hit mainland cinemas on December 9, 2004.
Adapted from the book of the same name, it tells the story of a couple, both of them skillful thieves, who find their consciences on a thief-filled train.
Wang Bo (Andy Lau, or Liu Dehua) is a master pickpocket from Hong Kong. Wang Li (Rene Liu, or Liu Ruoying) is a "talented" cheat from Taiwan. They're partners in crime and passion, and cheat their way across China, until one day they run into Shagen (Wang Baoqiang) at a railway station.
An orphan since birth, Shagen spends more time with wolves than with men. He believes in the basic goodness of human nature and is convinced that he lives in a world without thieves. Having saved up 60,000 yuan after five years of hard work, he decides to go back to his hometown, build a house and get married.
However, the train Shagen boards is full of thieves. Besides Wang Bo and Wang Li, there is a gang of highwaymen under the control of Uncle Bill (Ge You). While Bill's men are trying to get Shagen's savings, Wang Li takes it on herself to be his protector.
Feng Xiaogang has become a supplier of New Year's movies in China. For four consecutive years, he has caused a nationwide media excitement at the end of each year. That started with 1998's "The Dream Factory" (Jiafang Yifang) and ran to last year's "Cell phone" (Shouji).
With "A World without Thieves", Feng tries his hand at something beyond his standard humor. For the first time, he employs a lot of special effects.
"I do like comedy, but I also want to know where my limits lie," said Feng, "The film is an experiment. It has special skills, love between thieves, as well as the rediscovery of conscience."
Feng says the film is more like a fairy tale: It's two thieves trying to protect someone's "daydream". "You see, a fairy tale may expose more about life and human nature than another story. You don't change the world with a film, but you make people see and feel innocence, and that's my power. "
46. The underlined word “naive” means _________.
A. lovely              B. interesting                     C. innocent           D. smart
47. Which of the following films is not directed by Feng Xiaogang?
A. Red River Valley                              B. A World Without Thieves
C. The Dream Factory                               D. Cellphone
48. It can be inferred from the text that _________.
Feng Xiaogang has directed more than three films since 1998.
This film was first on show on December 9, 2004.
Wang Bo and Wang Li are in the charge of Uncle Bill.
Feng Xiaogang likes fairy tales.
49. Which of the following statements best expresses the main idea of the passage?
Introduction of Feng Xiaogang
Introduction of Liu Dehua
Brief introduction of Feng’s film — A World Without Thieves
Feng’s opinion about his film — A World Without Thieves
50. What’s Feng’s opinion about this film?
All the World is peaceful and perfect objects.
The power of the film is to make people see and feel innocence.
It’s only a fairy tale.
Let people rediscover their consciences by this film.

 I was telling my boy Sonny the story of the hare (兔子) and the tortoise (烏龜). At the end I said. “Son, remember: Slow and steady (穩(wěn)固的) wins the race. Don’t you think there’s something to learn from the tortoise?”
Sonny opened his eyes wide, “Do you mean next time when I’m participating in the 60-metre race I should wish that Billy and Tony and Sandy would all fall asleep halfway?”
I was shocked, “But the tortoise didn’t wish that the hare would fall asleep on the way!”
“He must have wished that,” Sonny said. “Otherwise how could he be so stupid as to race with the hare? He knew very well the hare ran a hundred times faster than he himself did.”
“He didn’t have such a wish,” I insisted, “He won the race by perseverance , by pushing on steadily.”
Sonny thought a while. “That’s a lie,” he said. “He won it because he was lucky. If the hare hadn’t happened to fall asleep, the tortoise would never have won the race. He could be as steady as you like, or a hundred times steadier, but he’d never have won the race. That’s for sure.”
I gave up. Today’s children are not like what we used to be. They’re just hopeless.
61.Sonny believed that the tortoise ________.
won the race by his own effort
B. took a risk by agreeing to race
C. was not given a fair chance in the race
D. in fact did not win the race
62.Billy, Tony and Sandy must be ________.
A. boys who were unknown to Sonny’s father
B. boys Sonny had run races with before
C. boys Sonny had never raced with before
D. boys Sonny did not expect to race with again
63.The writer thinks that his generation (代) ________.
A. were more clever than Sonny’s generation
B. had the same ideas about life as Sonny’s generation
C. were more hopeful than Sonny’s generation
D. had different ideas about life from Sonny’s generation
