11.Fluency(流利) in another language is one of the most important aims of a newcomer to another country.In addition,understanding the culture and learning to communicate comfortably with people of that culture are as important as learning the rules of the language.Language learning and culture learning go together and may take a long time.?
  Sometimes people f eel that they understand a culture after a few weeks or months.People do learn a lot when they first begin living in another culture,but this is only the first stage of learning.It usually involves(含包) things like learning everyday activities and some basic customs.?
To really understand another culture,people have to go beyond the first stage,This is challenge because it is often difficult to know what to learn.Much of what we call"culture"is hard to see.
  Culture is like an iceberg(冰山).Picture in your mind a huge iceberg in the ocean.The only part of the iceberg that you see is the tip.You don't see the rest of the iceberg because it is hidden from sight in the water.It is easy to forget that it is there.Most of the iceberg is deep within the ocean,just as much of a culture is deep within its people.?
  When you meet someone from another culture,certain culture differences are obvious:You hear another language or you hear your own language spoken with an accent.You see different foods,clothes and sometimes physical characteristics of people.You observe new customs or habits,such as the use of chopsticks,and,bowing or kissing on both cheeks as a greeting.These differences are interesting and important,but they are usually not too difficult to understand.They are visible so they are seen easily and quickly.?
  The part of culture that is like the underwater part of the iceberg consists of assumptions(設(shè)想),communication styles,values,and beliefs about what is right and wrong.The hidden part of culture affects much of a person's way of thinkin g and communicating.It is the meaning behind his or her verbal (言語(yǔ)的) and nonverbal language.Learning to communicate well with people from another culture involves becoming aware of the hidden part of cultur e.
32.What's the subject of this passage?A
A.Learning about culture.
B.Language learning.
C.The hidden part of the iceberg.
D.Fluency in another language.
33.What is learning about culture?D

B.Learning everyday activities and some basic customs.
C.Learning the culture of an iceberg.
D.Learning the visible as well as the hidden differences of culture.
34.What's the writer's opinion?C
A.Communication styles can be easily seen and learned.
B.Language learning is more important than culture learning.
C.Learning about culture is not easy and may take a long time.
D.People usually learn a culture after a few weeks or months.
35.The underlined phrase"consists of"can be replaced by"B".
A.lies in        
B.is made up of       
C.a(chǎn)grees with        
D.is different from.

分析 文章是關(guān)于文化的學(xué)習(xí)以及文化學(xué)習(xí)方面所遇見(jiàn)的問(wèn)題.

解答 ADCB
32  A 大意理解題:通讀文章,全文以"culture"為主線進(jìn)行.主要講述了其它國(guó)家語(yǔ)言文化的學(xué)習(xí),由于差異性,語(yǔ)言學(xué)習(xí)和文化學(xué)習(xí)結(jié)合在一起,可能需要很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間.后文具體介紹了不同國(guó)家語(yǔ)言文化的深刻內(nèi)涵.故選A.
33 D  根據(jù)文章第四段Culture is like an iceberg(冰山).Picture in your mind a huge iceberg in the ocean.The only part of the iceberg that you see is the tip.You don't see the rest of the iceberg because it is hidden from sight in the water.可知我們既要學(xué)習(xí)可以看見(jiàn)的,也要學(xué)習(xí)那些隱含的看不見(jiàn)的部分.故選D.
34  C  觀點(diǎn)理解題:由文章第一段"Language learning and culture learning go together and may lake a long time語(yǔ)言學(xué)習(xí)和文化學(xué)習(xí)結(jié)合在一起,可能需要很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間".可知作者所持觀點(diǎn).意思與C項(xiàng)吻合,故答案是C.
35  B  詞義理解題:由文章最后一段"…assumptions (設(shè)想),communication styles,values.a(chǎn)nd beliefs設(shè)想,交流風(fēng)格,價(jià)值信仰.可知 consist of 應(yīng)是"包含,由…構(gòu)成"之意.be made up of意為"由…組成",故選B.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 做閱讀理解時(shí)要快速的瀏覽全文,把握文章主旨大意,帶著問(wèn)題回到原文,尋找細(xì)節(jié)或概括相應(yīng)的答案,最后要理清作者寫(xiě)作思路.

2.Wearing fashionable(時(shí)尚的)clothes can be bad for you!This may surpris e you,but(61)itis said that some clothes can cause a variety of problems.Do you find this hard to believe?Well,researchers have discovered that(62)following(follow) the latest fashion trends(趨勢(shì))may not be(63)healthy(health).For example,if you tie a scarf too tightly it increases your blood pressure.Tight  jeans and trousers,and even short skirts may all cause(64)illness/illnesses(ill).
    Experts say that things we wear can also lead(65)tostomach problems,rashes(皮疹),backache and painful feet.Yet how can we explain this?Very tight clothes can prevent people moving(66)naturally(nature),and this is not good for you.If you wear trousers or skirts that(67)are(be),too tight around the waist,then your stomach does not have room(68)to expand(expand) after you have eaten,and this can cause stomachache.And last but not least,wearing shoes with high heels can cause foot and back problems:Even practical shoes can cause backache(69)if/whenthey don't fit you properly.
    So some experts suggest that fashionable clothes(70)(should) be kept(keep) away from.

3.You often find somebody who works around you complaining all the time,don't you?(36)BAbout 70% of Americans say being around non-stop complainers sometimes has a bad influence on them.Luckily,here are 4tips to help form positive patterns.
1.Form self-awareness
When a negative thought pops into your mind,immediately correct it.Instead of telling"That's a nice shirt,but I can't afford it",change the message into"That will look great with my black pants when I can afford it".(37)G
2.Distance yourself
(38)EExcuse yourself and go somewhere quiet,somewhere outdoors in the fresh air.Think of something pleasant before returning.You have to take this seriously because negative people can and will pull you into the quicksand(困境).
3.Don't try to change complainers
If you find yourself trapped in a group of complainers in a meeting or at a social event,simply choose silence.Let their words bounce off you while you think of something else.Attempting to stop the complaining can make you a target.(39)F If someone says,"I hate Mondays,weekends are too short,"try to think,"I'm glad that I rested up over the weekend,so I'm really ready to make some improvement on that big project."
(40)C
When someone is shouting at you angrily,throw the responsibility back at them by asking,"So what do you intend to do about it?"In most cases,complainers don't really want a solution.They just want to speak it out.If you make them aware that they themselves have to find the solution,they will leave you alone and find someone else to complain to.If so,you will be happy.

A.Find solutions
B.You are not alone in this case.
C.Change responsibility
D.You will never know what they are going to talk about.
E.Whenever possible,escape from negative conversations.
F.But you can redirect the discussion in your own mind.
G.By doing this,it will lead to positive behaviors.

1.A Swiss airplane powered only by energy from the sun left from Abu Dhabi early on March 9,2015.Its creators hope the plane will make the first around-the-world journey without any fuel(燃料).
The plane is called Solar Impulse 2.It has one seat and is made from carbon fiber.The plane weighs only as much as a car but its wings are wider than a Boeing 747.The plane's wings stretch 72meters across.Those wings include 17,000solar units (太陽(yáng)能板) that collect the sun's energy.The energy allows the plane to fly day and night.
Two Swiss scientists built the plane.One is Bertrand Piccard,also an explorer,who made the first non-stop flight around the world in a balloon.The other is Andre Borschberg who is an engineer and trained fighter pilot.In their opinion,they are not trying to change the airplane industry.Instead,they want to show that new energy sources and technologies can make what is impossible possible."We want to show we can fly day and night in a plane without a drop of fuel.''Mr.Piccard said.
Some parts of the trip will require the pilots to be in the small plane for five to six days and nights on end.So it is good that the pilot's seat is also a toilet.
The plane begins its tour in the United Arab Emirates.The pilots also plan stops in Oman,India,and China.They will cross the Pacific Ocean,stop in the United States,and continue over southern Europe or North Africa.They plan to arrive back in the United Arab Emirates in late July or early August.Internet viewers can go to the Solar Impulse website to see the plane's location and listen to broadcasts from the pilots.

25.What do we know about the plane"Solar Impulse 2"?A.
A.It can be powered from the sunlight.B.It looks like a car with long wings.
C.It can collect energy day and night.D.It can fly without any energy.
26.The two scientists build the solar powered plane toD.
A.fly around the world for the first time
B.change the airplane industry on purpose
C.train the pilot to try the solar powered plane
D.test the new energy and technologies on plane
27.The phrase in paragraph 4"on end"is similar toC in meaning.
A.frequently
B.occasionally
C.continuously
D.regularly
28.Which of the following is Not right according to the passage?D.
A.The plane will complete the world tour in 4-5months.
B.The plane can be tracked on the Solar Impulse website.
C.The pilot aboard will broadcast to the Internet viewers.
D.The flight tour begins from east to west around the world.
