科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來源:甘肅省莊浪二中2010屆高三適應(yīng)性考試英語(yǔ)試題 題型:閱讀理解


You wake up in the morning, the day is beautiful and the plans for the day are what you have been looking forward to for a long time. Then, the telephone rings, you say hello, and the drama starts. The person on the other end has a depressing (令人沮喪的) tone in his voice as he starts to tell you how terrible his morning is and that there is nothing to look forward to. Are you still in a wonderful mood? Impossible!
Communicating with negative people can wash out your happiness. It may not change what you think,but communicating long enough with them will make you feel depressed for a moment or a long time.
Life brings ups and downs,but some people are stuck in the wrong idea that life has no happiness to offer.  They only feel glad when they make others feel bad. No wonder they can hardly win others’pity or respect.
When you communicate with positive people,your spirit stays happy and therefore more positive things are attracted. When the knife of a negative person is put in you,you have the heavy feeling that all in all,brings you down.
Sometimes we have no choice but to communicate with negative people. This could be a co-worker,or a relative. In this case,say what needs to be said as little as possible. Sometimes it feels good to let out your anger back to the negative person,but all this does is to lower you to that same negative level and they won’t feel ashamed of themselves about that.
Negativity often affects happiness without even being realized. The negative words of another at the start of the day can attach to you throughout the rest of your day,which makes you feel bad and steals your happiness. Life is too short to feel negative. Stay positive and avoid negativity as much as possible.
1.The purpose of the first paragraph is to_________
A. make a comparison              B. offer an suggestion
C. introduce a topic                 D. describe a daily scene
2.How can negative people have effect on us?
A. By influencing our emotion.   
B. By telling us the nature of life.
C. By changing our way of thinking.   
D. By comparing their attitude to life with ours.
3. Some negative people base their happiness on_________.
A. other people’s pity for them            B. making other people unhappy
C. building up a positive attitude     D. other people’s respect for them
4.According to the passage,to reduce negative people’s influence on us,we are advised________
A. to change negative people’s attitude to life
B. to show our dissatisfaction to negative people
C. to make negative people feel ashamed of themselves
D. to communicate with negative people as little as possible

It is easy to understand the way a culture approaches disagreements by looking at the communication styles in that culture. In societies where open discussion is encouraged, conflict is much more common and accepted. On the other hand, cultures that strive to reduce conflicts and maintain harmony do not see such interaction appropriate, particularly in the workplace.

In Australia, Great Britain, and the United States, for example, disagreements are considered a natural part of communication. People in these countries typically have open and honest discussions, even if people’s differences of opinion lead to confrontation(對(duì)抗,對(duì)立). In business setting, this may mean debating with a colleague or a supervisor over the approach to a task. Or, co-workers might have a discussion about whether an agenda(議程)item during a meeting is suitable or not. Conflict is not necessarily negative ,though. And many people feel that debating an issue is as rewarding as resolving it. Successful conflict resolution(沖突解決) is also seen as a valuable skill, most people at the management level are expected to be very good at handling conflicts that arise in the workplace.

The Asian style of communication is quite different. In almost parts of eastern Asia, individuals present their ideas and then wait for others to do the same. They prefer to seek agreement from a group without rejecting another’s opinions out loud. In business meetings, subordinates (下級(jí)) will hardly disagree openly with their supervisor. This shows respect for supervisor, and it reflects the cultural importance placed on politeness and building harmony and trust.

1. The best title for this passage is ______.

A. Approaching Disagreements                    B. Differences of Opinion

C. Culture and Communication                    D. Conflict Resolution

2. In Australia, people would consider disagreement______.

A. a negative part of communication             B. necessary in their communication

C. normal and beneficial                            D. Unimportant in communication

3. Which of the following is true according to the author?

A. Subordinates in the USA don’t try to show their respect in the supervisors.

B. Asian people at management level are not good at handling conflicts.

C. People in Asia always try to avoid conflicts.

D. People in some western countries like to have conflicts.

4. What does the underlined word “harmony” probably mean?

A. Difference           B. Agreement     C. Respects        D. Communication
