3、included an actor crossing a fiver on horseback, but when the time came to shoot, the man was too drunk to ride.

4、ny countries, Winfield is just a familiar but nameless face, a simple cowboy with an advertising message about a connection between the West and a brand of cigarettes. Few people know that he is advertising message about a connection between the West and a brand of cigarettes. Few people know that h

5、e is 55, a family man whos been married to the same woman for 37 years and has 5 children and 7 grandchildren. Most surprisingly, hes a real, working cowboy who raises horses on his ranch.

It is common that parents hurry the child beyond his natural learning

10、 rate, but this can set up dangerous feelings of failure and states of worry in the child. This might happen at any stage. A baby might be forced to use a toilet too early, and a young child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads. (77) On the other han

11、d, though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities, he loses his natural enthusiasm (热情 ) for life and his desire to find out new things for himself. Parents vary greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children. Some may be especially strict in money mat

12、ters; others are severe over time of coming home at night or punctuality (准时 ) for meals. In general, file controls imposed (强加的 ) represent the needs of the parents and the values of the community (社区 ) as much as the childs own happiness. As regards the development of moral standards in the growin

13、g child, consistency is very important in parental teaching. To forbid a thing one day and excuse it the next is no foundation for morality. Also, parents should realize that “example is better than precept“. (78) If they are not sincere and do not practice what they preach (说教 ), their children may

14、 grow confused, and emotionally insecure when they grow old enough to think for themselves and realize they have been to some extent fooled.

15、quisition of new skills _ . （ A） should be avoided （ B） is universal among parents （ C） sets up dangerous states of worry in the child （ D） will make him lose interest in learning new things 7 We can infer from the text that when children are learning new skills, parents should _ . （ A） encourage th

Every person perceives himself to have a sort of invisible shield surrounding his physical body. When someone comes too close, he feels un

20、comfortable. When he bumps into someone, he feels obligated to apologize. But the size era persons “comfort zone“ depends on his cultural origin. For example, in casual conversation, many Americans stand about four feet apart, hi other words, they like to keep each other “at arms length“. People in

21、Latin or Arab cultures, in contrast, stand very close to each other, and touch each other often. (79) If someone from one of those cultures stands too close to an American while in conversation the American may feel uncomfortable and back away. When Americans are talking, they expect others to respo

22、nd to what they are saying. (80) To Americans, polite conversationalists empathize by displaying expressions of excitement or disgust shock or sadness. People with a “poker face“, whose emotions are hidden by a deadpan expression, are looked upon with suspicion. Americans also indicate their attenti

23、veness in a conversation by raising their eyebrows, nodding, smiling politely and maintaining good eye contact. Whereas some cultures view direct eye contact as impolite or threatening, Americans see it as a sign of genuineness and honesty. If a person doesnt look you in the eye, an American might s

24、ay, you should question his motives or assume that he doesnt like you.
