The driver was surprised and stopped him.He asked,"Why are you beating my horse?"

8.In a very special course at Knnet School,the social-science teacher Adam Smith guides his students through the"married life".Unlike the traditional course,Adam makes his students experience the real problems married ones may face like housing and child care."No one tells kids about money-managing problems,"says Adam.

10.Informal conversation is an important part of any business relationship.Before you start a discussion,however,make sure you understand which topics are suitable and which are considered taboo (禁忌) in a particular culture.Latin Americans enjoy sharing information about their local history,art,and customs.Expect questions about your family,and be sure to show pictures of your children.You may feel free to ask similar questions of your Latin American friends.The French think of conversation as an art form,and they enjoy the value of lively discussions as well as disagreements.For them,arguments can be interesting-and they can cover pretty much or any topic-as long as they occur in a respectful and intelligent (智慧的) manner.
In the United States,business people like to discuss a wide range of topics,including opinions about work,family,hobbies,and politics.In Japan,China,and Korea,however,people are much more private.They do not share much about their thoughts,feelings,or emotions because they feel that doing so might take away from the harmonious (和諧的) business relationship they're trying to build.Middle Easterners are also private about their personal lives and family matters.It is considered rude,for example,to ask a businessman from Saudi Arabia about his wife or children.
As general rule,it's best not to talk about politics or religion (宗教) with your business friends.This can get you into trouble,even in the United States,where people hold different views.In addition,discussing one's salary is usually considered unsuitable.Sports is typically a friendly subject in most parts of the world,although be careful not to criticize a national sport.Instead,be friendly and praise your host's team.
60.The author considers politics and religionB.
A.cheerful topics 
B.taboo
C.rude topics     
D.topics that can never be talked about
61.Which is typically a friendly topic in most places according to the author?A

7.The spread of Western eating habits around the world is bad for human health and for the environment.Those findings come from a new report in the journal Nature.
David Tilman is a professor at the University of Minnesota.In the study,he examined information from 100nations to show what people ate and how diet affected health.Mr.Tilman noted a movement beginning in the 1960s.He found that as nations industrialized(工業(yè)化),population increased and earnings rose.More people began to adopt what has been called the Western diet.The Western diet is high in sugar,fat,oil and meat.By eating these foods,people began to get fatter and sicker.
"The food,let us say,in the 15richest nations of the world,right now contains about 400or 500extra calories(熱量) a day that are eaten beyond what people need,and that leads people to gain weight."
David Tillman says overweight people are at greater risk for diseases like diabetes,heart disease and some cancers.Diabetes is shooting to very high rates in the United States and across Europe.Heart disease is a major cause of death in the Western nations.Unfortunately when people become industrialized,if they adopt this Western diet,they are going to have these same health problems.
A diet bad for human beings,it seems,is also bad for the environment.As the world's population grows,experts say more forests and areas will become farmland for crops or grasslands for raising cattle.These areas will be needed to meet the increasing demand for food.
Mr.Tilman calls the link between diet,the environment and human health,"a dilemma",a situation where it is very difficult to decide what to do.He says one possible solution is leaving the Western diet behind.
32.Why did people get fatter in the 1960s?A
A.They ate foods high in calories.
B.They adopted a western lifestyle.
C.They set aside little time for exercise.
D.They had a better life and became lazier.
33.According to the text,overweight people may suffer the following diseases EXCEPTD.
A.diabetes     
B.heart disease      
C.cancers       
D.skin disease
34.What can we infer from Paragraph 5?C
A.The world's population will grow faster than ever.
B.People won't care about the environment.
C.There will be fewer and fewer forests.
D.Raising cattle will be the most moneymaking business.
35.What is the purpose of the author in writing this passage?D
A.To tell people effective ways to keep healthy.
B.To draw people's attention to environmental protection.
C.To show the problems industrialized nations are facing.
D.To call on people to give up the Western diet.

8.Hongbao,a red envelope with small amounts of money in,is a gift that is guaranteed to be warmly received,not only because of the cash,(61)but (also)because of its (62)traditional(tradition) symbolism and best wishes for the future.This is true throughout China,but especially in the south(63)where people regard receiving hongbao (64)as an auspicious(吉祥的) beginning to the New Year.
The legend says that a devil(惡魔) used to appear to harm children and the elderly.But loud noise would frighten (65)the devil away,as did the color red.Firecrackers(鞭炮) took care of the noise and during Spring Festival couplets(對聯(lián)) also helped keep him away.But firecrackers couldn't go off all day so children and the elderly also got red envelopes(66)containing(contain) money.
The tradition (67)has survived(survive) 1000years and giving Hongbao to children and the elderly remains popular (68)among/withChinese people all over the world.It has also made its way into workplaces where bosses often give(69)employees(employ) Hongbao and most recently,companies have adopted online marketing strategies where Hongbao is distributed,hoping (70)their (they)companies and staff members have a good start.
Giving Hongbao at the beginning of the Lunar New Year indicates best wishes for the future.
