【解析】

【語篇解讀】只要有堅強的意志，舞蹈者靠的不是腳，而是一顆自信的心。

【1】cut off意為：切斷，斷絕，表示事業(yè)之路的中斷。

【2】從上文可知，她的右腿被截掉，這對于一個舞蹈演員來說意味著她的演藝事業(yè)的停止(stop)。

【3】 句意：在接下來痛苦的幾個月中。遭遇了車禍，又被截了肢，舞蹈事業(yè)遭受挫折，因此只有＂painful(痛苦的)＂符合語境。

【4】從下文...had been fitted with an artificial leg可知醫(yī)生給她制作了假肢。

【5】句意：她強烈地(strongly)想要回到舞蹈(dancing)事業(yè)。強烈地(strongly)符合語境。

【6】從文中的敘述可知，她雖遭此不幸，但不放棄，想要重返舞臺。

【7】句意：Sudha相信她自己(herself)，知道她能實現(xiàn)自己的夢想。

【8】 從語境中看，因為她相信自己能實現(xiàn)夢想，因此(so)勇敢地開始了重返舞臺的旅途。

【9】裝上假肢之后，Sudha必須重新學習(learning)平衡、彎曲、伸展、走步、旋轉(zhuǎn)等動作。

【10】would在這里意思是＂總會，過去常常＂。其他三項could(可能)，should(應該)，might(可能)均不符合語境。

【11】句意：你還(still)有很長的路要走。表示父親很冷靜，對女兒重返舞臺的艱辛有充分的心理準備。

【12】 in return作為（對……的）回報，作為回應，作為回答，同as an answer。in turn依次，輪流，轉(zhuǎn)而，反過來；in surprise吃驚地；in anger氣憤地。

【13】句意：Sudha進行了一次具有歷史意義的復出。comeback復出，重返，再度受歡迎。從下文的＂Sudha’s comeback was __37__...＂可推知這里選C。

【14】move someone to tears把某人感動得哭了。

【15】 是這次演出(performance)把Sudha重新推上了第一的位置。

【16】Sudha又問她的父親她以往總問的問題：她的表演如何？usual以往的，往常的。

【17】moving動人的，令人感動的，符合語境。

【18】句意：一個電影制片人決定把這個故事拍成一部轟動一時的電影。decide決定。

【19】try to do sth.試圖做某事，但不一定做成。manage to do sth.設法做成了某事，強調(diào)結(jié)果。故選B。

【20】句意：沒有做不成的事。本句為雙重否定表肯定。

【題目】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 (強調(diào)) the importance of relationship building to a greater or less degree. 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 uncomfortable 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.

【1】In some countries, eating together at restaurants may make it easier for people to ________.

A. get to know each otherB. share the same culture

C. keep each other companyD. develop closer relations

【2】The author mentions his experience in Thailand to show that ________.

A. the English prefer to make long speeches

B. even talk and silence can be culturally different

C. too many words are of no use

D. people from Thailand are quiet and shy by nature

【3】What would be the best title for the text?

A. How to Understand Each Other.

B. Multicultural Environment.

C. How to Build Up a Relationship.

D. Cross-Cultural Differences.

【題目】“Did you hear what happened to Adam Last Friday?” Lindsey whispers to Tori.

With her eyes shining, Tori brags, “You bet I did, Sean told me two days ago.”

Who are Lindsey and Tori talking about? It just happened to be yours truly, Adam Freedman. I can tell you that what they are saying is (a) not nice and (b) not even true. Still, Lindsey and Tori aren’t very different from most students here at Linton High School, including me. Many of our conversations are gossip(閑話). I have noticed three effects of gossip: it can hurt people, it can give gossipers a strange kind of satisfaction, and it can cause social pressures in a group.

An important negative effect of gossip is that it can hurt the person being talked about. Usually, gossip spreads information about a topic-breakups, trouble at home, even dropping out-that a person would rather keep secret. The more embarrassing or shameful the secret is, the juicier the gossip it makes. Probably the worst type of gossip is the absolute lie. People often think of gossipers as harmless, but cruel lies can cause pain.

If we know that gossip can be harmful, then why do so many of us do it? Theanswer lies in another effect of gossip: the satisfaction it gives us. Sharing the latest rumor(傳言) can make a person feel important because he or she knows something that others don’t. Similarly, hearing the latest rumor can make a person feel like part of the “in group.” In other words, gossip is satisfying because it gives people a sense of belonging or even superiority(優(yōu)越感).

Gossip also can have a third effect: it strengthens unwritten, unspoken rules about how people should act. Professor David Wilson explains that gossip is important in policing behaviors in a group. Translated into high school terms, this means that if everybody you hang around with is laughing at what John wore or what Jane said, then you can bet that wearing or saying something similar will get you the same kind of negative attention. The dos and don’ts conveyed through gossip will never show up in any student handbook.

The effects of gossip vary depending on the situation. The next time you feel the urge to spread the latest news, think about why you want to gossip and what effects your “juicy story” might have.

【1】The author uses a conversation at the beginning of the passage to .

A. introduce a topic B. present an argument

C. describe the characters D. clarify his writing purpose

【2】Professor David Wilson thinks that gossip can .

A. provide students with written rules

B. help people watch their own behaviors

C. force schools to improve student handbooks

D. attract the police’s attention to group behaviors

【3】What advice does the author give in the passage?

A. Never become a gossiper

B. Stay away from gossipers

C. Don’t let gossip turn into lies

D. Think twice before you gossip.
