2、onding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. 0 We are all conditioned by the way we are brought up. Our values are determined by our parents, and in a larger sense, by the culture in which we live. The Chinese, for example, are not accustomed to the drinking of milk , and

3、 may actually become sick if they are compelled to drink a glassful of the beverage. Americans, on the other hand, thrive on milk, although they have many taboos(禁忌 )of their own. Some years ago, I gave a dinner party during which I served a delicious hors d oeuvre(餐前小吃 )filled with a meat that tast

4、ed somewhat like chicken. My guests wondered what the meat was, but I refused to tell them until they had eaten their fill. T then explained that they had just dined on the flesh of freshly killed rattlesnake. The reaction was nausea(呕吐 ) -and in some cases violent vomiting. If I had served rattlesn

5、ake to a Chinese, he would doubtlessly have requested a second helping, for in China the dish is considered a delicacy. Another interesting case is the young man I met recently in New York City. An American by birth, he had been removed from his native state of Oregon at the age of six months when h

6、is parents went to Japan as missionaries. Orphaned before his first birthday, he was reared by a Japanese family in a remote village. The young man was unmistakably American in appearance, with blond hair and blue eyes. But he had a Japanese style of walking, Japanese facial expressions, and he thou

7、ght like a Japanese. Though he had learned to speak English fluently, he felt uncomfortable and out of place in an American city.

In countries in which status is important, it is not advisab

11、le to invite people of different statuses to the same dinner party. Americans will often invite people to their homes. While in some societies the home is considered too private, unworthy, or embarrassingly small to serve as an appropriate forum for business entertaining. In some countries there is

12、a “help yourself “ approach to entertaining done in the home. This approach does not work well when entertaining people whose culture teaches them to wait to be asked three time before accepting an offer of food. In one instance, a Chinese guest went an entire evening without eating though he was qu

13、ite hungry because he was too embarrassed to take food after only being asked to do so once. In another case, an American woman executive was being entertained at tea in London. After having the tea served, the American hostess helped herself to cream and sugar rather than waiting to be served. The

14、English woman was embarrassed by the implication that she was not served quickly enough. As a general rule, a small gift from your home country is appreciated. A gift that is tied to the particular interest of the individual is especially appreciated. Gifts for children are also well received. Be ca

15、reful that the “hometown“ gift you are bringing to Singapore was not made in Hong Kong. Because many gifts carry symbolic meanings, it is always best to seek the advice of a cultural informant before selecting gifts. The giving of large gifts, or payments for special service, should only be undertak

16、en after consulting the legal department in the home and host culture. 6 It is no good inviting people of different social positions to the same party in the country where_. （ A） people dont pay any attention to your positions （ B） people care much about their status （ C） entertainment is important

Viewed biologically, the modern footballer

20、 is in reality a member of a hunting group. His killing weapon has turned into a harmless football and his prey(猎物 )into a goal mouth. If his aim is accurate and he scores a goal, he enjoys the hunter s triumph of killing his prey. To understand how this transformation has taken place we must briefl

21、y look back at our forefathers. They spent over a million years evolving as cooperative hunters. Their very survival depended on success in the hunting field. Under this pressure their whole way of life, even their bodies, became greatly changed. They became chasers, runners, jumpers, aimers, throwe

22、rs and prey-killers. They cooperated as skillful male group attackers. Then about ten thousand years ago, after this immensely long period of hunting their food, they became farmers. Their improved intelligence, so vital to their old hunting life, was put to a new use that of controlling and domesti

23、cating their prey. The hunt became suddenly out of date. The food was there on the farms, awaiting their needs. The risks and uncertainties of the hunt were no longer essential for survival. The skills and thirst for hunting remained, however, and demanded new outlets. Hunting for sport replaced hun

24、ting for necessity. This new activity involved all the original hunting sequences, but the aim of the operation was no longer to avoid starvation. Instead the sportsmen set off to test their skills against prey that were no longer essential to their survival. To be sure, the kill may have been eaten

25、, but there were other, much simpler ways of obtaining a meaty meal. 11 The author believes that sporting activities _. （ A） are forms of biological development （ B） are essentially forms of taming the prey （ C） have actually developed from hunting （ D） have changed the way of hunting 12 In a footba

26、ll game, what is equal to the prey in hunting is_. （ A） any member of the opposing team （ B） the goal mouth （ C） the goal keeper （ D） the football 13 For over a million years, our forefathers were basically _. （ A） cooperating hunters （ B） successful farmers （ C） runners and jumpers （ D） skillful sp

27、ortsmen 14 The word “operation“(Para. 4)refers to _. （ A） domesticating animals （ B） hunting （ C） prey killing （ D） sports activities 15 Which of the following best summarizes the main idea of the passage? （ A） It is farming that gives human beings enough leisure time for sporting activities. （ B） F

28、arming is very important in human civilization because it saves human beings from risks and uncertainties of hunting for survival. （ C） It is hunting that provides human beings with much simpler ways of obtaining meaty meals. （ D） Sporting activities satisfy the desire of modern man to exercise hunt

29、ing skills which his fore fathers developed for survival. 15 Reading is considered to be a kind of conversation between the reader and the text. The reader puts questions, as it were, to the text and gets answers. In the light of these he puts further questions, and so on. For most of the time this

30、conversation goes on below the level of consciousness. At times, however, we become aware of it. This is usually when we are running into difficulties, when mismatch is occurring between expectations and meaning. When successful matching is being experienced, our questioning of the text continues at

31、 the unconscious level. Different people converse with the text differently. Some stay very close to the words on the page; others take off imaginatively from the words, interpreting, criticizing, analyzing and examining. The former represents a kind of comprehension that is written in the text. The

32、 latter represents higher levels of comprehension, the balance between these is important, especially for advanced readers. There is another conversation that forms our point of view is equally important, and that is to do not with what is read but with how it is read. We call this a process convers

33、ation as opposed to a content conversation. It is concerned not with meaning but with the strategies we employ in reading. If we are advanced readers, our ability to hold a content conversation with a text is usually pretty well developed. Not so our ability to hold a process conversation. It is pre

34、cisely this kind of conversation that is of importance when we are seeking to develop our reading to meet the new demands being placed on us by studying at a higher level. 16 Reading as a kind of conversation between the reader and the text becomes conscious only when _. （ A） the reader s expectatio
