14、East Asia are often surprised and puzzled by how Asian cultures and customs differ from those in the United States. Whats considered typical or proper social conduct in one country may be regarded as odd, improper or even rude in the other. For example, 30people from some East Asian countries may be

15、gin a conversation with a stranger by asking personal questions about family, home or work. Such questions are thought to be friendly whereas they might be considered offensive in the United States. On the other hand, people in most Asian cultures are far more guarded about expressing their feelings

16、 publicly than most Americans are. 31Openly displaying annoyance or anger, yelling, arguing loudly and so forth is considered ill-mannered in countries such as Japan. Many East Asians prefer to hold their emotions in check and instead express themselves with great politeness. They try not to be blun

17、t and avoid making direct criticisms. In fact, they often keep their differences of opinion to themselves and merely smile and remain silent rather than engage in a confrontation. By comparison, Americans are often frank about displaying both positive and negative emotions on the street and in other

18、 public places. Americans visiting Asia should keep in mind that such behavior may cause offense. A major difference between American culture and most East Asian cultures is that in East Asia the community is more important than the individual. 32Most Americans are considered a success when they mak

21、fect how the body works. No substance that has the power to do this is completely safe. 33Drugs are approved only after tests have demonstrated that they are relatively safe when used as directed and when their benefits outweigh their risks. Thus some very dangerous drugs are approved because they a

22、re necessary to treat serious illnesses. Many people suffer ill-effects from drugs called side-effects even though they take the drugs exactly as directed. 34The human population contains a great variety of genetic variation. But drugs are tested on just a few thousand people. When a particular drug

23、 is taken by millions, some people may not respond in a predictable way even though the drug has been tested. 35A patient may also acquire a tolerance for a certain drug, which means the patient has to take ever-larger doses to produce the desired effects. Tolerance may lead to heavy situation, in w

24、hich a person becomes so dependent on the drug that he or she becomes addicted to it. Addiction causes severe psychological and physical disturbances when a drug is taken away.

27、 city of San Francisco with the suburbs to the north. Each day about 100,000 automobiles cross the bridge taking people to and from the city. More than half of them cross the bridge during the morning and evening rush hours. 26With traffic so heavy, the trip is not pleasant. Now, however, there is a

28、t least one group of happy commuters. These are the people who travel under the bridge instead of on it. They go to work by boat and enjoy it so much that most of them say they will never go by car again. The ferry they take is spacious, quiet and comfortable. Commuters can enjoy the sun on deck. In

29、 the morning they can have breakfast in the coffee shop. And in the evening they can order a drink in the bar while looking at the beautiful scenery. The trip takes only 30 minutes and is not very costly. But best of all, 27being on a boat seems to make people feel more friendly toward each other. T

30、here has already been a marriage of two commuters who met on the ferry. Because the ferry has been so successful, there are plans to use other still larger boats. There is also a proposal for a high speed boat that will make the trip in only 15 minutes. 28But not everyone is happy about that. A lot

34、m activity. 32The restful state not only allows the body to repair and restore itself, but it has a calming effect on the consciousness. How to achieve this state of relaxation, however, is a matter of opinion. 33A recent report by Dr. David Holmes of the University of Kansas in the journal American

35、 Psychologist said that simply sitting in an armchair has just as many beneficial characteristics for the body as meditation does. Researchers of other relaxation techniques disagree. 34These experts believe that more structured techniques, such as meditation, lead to a condition of deep relaxation.

36、 The debate goes on, but one thing appears to be clear: the relaxation response can be reached by a number of methods, and the methods themselves are not as important as getting there. One day, one method may work best; on another day, an alternative method may be more appropriate. 35Once you are aw

37、are of all the methods, you can find the one that works best for you. Some of the relaxation techniques are meditation, self-analysis and progressive muscle relaxation. Although these techniques may not, in the end, produce more of a relaxation response than just sitting quietly in a chair, 35they h

38、ave the added benefit of structure and discipline, and for these reasons appear to be more effective for most individuals. 32. What will happen when a person is in a state of deep “relaxation”? 33. What did Dr. David Holmes say about “relaxation” in American Psychologist? 34. What do the opponents o

39、f Dr. David Holmes believe? 35. What does the speaker think of “relaxation techniques” such as meditation? 10 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 细节题。短文列举 了 relaxation给身体带来的一系列变化，然后总结说： “这种放松状态 ?还能对意识起到镇定的效果。 ”因此 D为答案。 【知识模块】 听力 11 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 细节题。短文提到，堪萨斯州大学的 Dr. David Holmes最近在发表于 American Psychologist上的一篇报告中说： “

40、仅仅是坐在扶手椅上就能得到无异于冥想给人体带来的益处。 ”A是说话者自己的观点； B利用 characteristics作干扰；而 D在文中并未提及。 【知识 模块】 听力 12 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 细节题。 Dr. David Holmes的观点出现，听到了其他研究者 disagree，则应留意听他们所持的相反观点。 A是原文的同义表达。 【知识模块】 听力 13 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 推断题。结尾处 speaker指出：一旦你知道这些方法，就总会找到适合自己的锻炼方法；而且这些方法在身体组织和身心锻炼方面更有益处，所以对于大多数人而言更为有益。由此推断 B正确。 A、

Although John completed his assignment quickly and successfully, 27he was furious when he learned that the boss had deliberately assigned him a difficult account. In response, he not only complained t

44、o his colleagues, but also to the bosss secretary. Sue, on the other hand, had a more difficult time satisfying her first client and she took several additional months to actually complete the project. However, she just laughed when she heard that the boss had made the assignments purposely. Over th

45、e next two years John worked reluctantly with each assignment and problem that he encountered. 28Sue accepted each assignment cheerfully and when problems arose she responded with her characteristic, “No problem, I can handle it.” Although Sue took longer to complete her projects than John and both

46、were equally successful on the assignments they completed, 29Sue was given the first promotion when there came a vacancy. 26. Whats the relationship between John and Sue now? 27.
