There is no doubt that one ofthe greatest concerns of modern man is his health. It isestimated that in the United States $200 billion arespent on health care each year. The medical field hasgrown into such a big business that it employs 4.8million people.Much more interest has been shown in preventivemedicine in recent years.

A recent survey showed that over17 million people are jogging. Many of these are soserious that they trained themselves to run the 26 milesand 385 yards of the hard and tiring marathons(马拉松) that are organized all over the country. The last time I was in Honolulu , I was amazed to see hundreds of people, young and old, running for their lives. And I discovered many of them have run in the Hawaiian Marathon. Exercise has also become a major part of conversation. At a dinner party recently, the president of a bank asked me, “ You look like a runner; how far do you run each day?” A few days later when I appeared on a national television show, the host suddenly asked me if I was a regular runner. On both occasions the conversation turned to the subject of exercise and I found that this is a subject on many people’s minds.

Manythings contribute to it–smells, sounds, flavors,the very feeling of the air one is breathing. Ofcourse, the natives’ unfamiliar language and behavior contribute to it too. People’ s resp culture shock vary greatly, from excitement and energetic action to withdrawal, depression,physical illness, and hostility. A particular individual might react to culture shock one way one dayand another the next.The notion of culture shock calls two useful points to mind. First, most people experience somedegree of culture shock when they go to a new country, whether they admit it to themselves andothers or not. Culture shock is more a product of the situation of being in a new culture than it isof the traveler’ s personal character.Second, culture shock, like other kinds of, is normally“shocktransitory”’. It passes with time.Academic analysts of the culture shock idea point out that the experience of culture shock neednot be negative. While there may be some unhappiness and unpleasantness along with theconfusion and disorientation, the confusion and disorientation are necessary steps in learning abouta new culture. If everything in the new place is just like home, no learning will come from being there.Which of the following best summarizes the topic of the passage所选答案： A.The nature of culture shock and its causes.问题33得2分，满分2分Which of the following statements regarding the causes of culture shock is TRUE所选答案： D.

All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words.The power of words, then, lies in their associations –the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increases.Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and effective use of words is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should, therefore, learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar ( 庸俗 ).The origin of language is _____________.所选答案： B. a matter that is hidden or secret问题33得2分，满分2分One of the reasons why men invented certain sounds to express thoughts and actions was that _____________.所选答案： C. they could communicate with each other问题34得2分，满分2分The real power of words exists in their ________________.所选答案： D. representative function问题35得2分，满分2分Which of the following statements about great writers is NOT TRUE所选答案： C.They are charming and good at story-telling.问题36得2分，满分2分The best title for this passage could be _____________.所选答案： B.

This difference set Alfred Wegener, a young geologist, inthinking. He thought the error too great to be reasoned out easily. Wegener himself tookmeasurements and found that since 1869 the island had moved an additional five eighths of a mile.After checking the positions of other arctic land masses, he concluded that all of them were driftingwestward at different speeds. From such date, Wegener developed his floating continents theory. Hepictured in mind an original supercontinent that hardened out of molten material making up thenewborn earth; eventually the mass cracked and broke into several pieces –thepresent continents. The continents do seem to fit together like pieces of a puzzle, and furthermore,some of the mountain ranges of different continents line up rather well, as if the land masses wereat one time linked. As convincing as Wegener’ s argument appeared, many geologists refused to accept it, and there was heated argument. Exactly how the continents were formed is still a leading geophysical mystery, though today many geophysicists are returning to the continental drift theory.The 1869 map indicated that ______________.所选答案： A.

They were influence by the grades they were earning and were unfair in their judgments.Another irresponsible form of evaluation occurred when James rated his teacher excellent because the teacher is“easy”. He gives few tests and only assigns (分配) one paper during the entire term. His lectures are often filled with jokes and endless stories about his family. On the other hand, Jamesrated Professor Jones poor because he assigns homework daily, gives pretest previews and post-test reviews, and packs his lectures with information.Santa, Sam, and James have not thought about their teachers’ teaching abilities.

Most people will agree that the thatched roof is an essential part of the attraction of the English countryside.Thatching is in fact the oldest of all the building crafts practiced in the British Isles（英论诸岛）. Although thatch has always been used for cottage and farm buildings, it was once used for castles and churches, too.Thatching is a solitary（独自的）craft, which often runs in families. The craft of thatching as it is practiced toady has changed verylittle since the Middle Ages. Over 800 full-time thatchers are employed in England and Wales today, maintaining and renewing the old roofs as well as thatching newer houses. Many property owners choose thatch not only for its beauty but because they know it will keep them cool in summer and warm in winter.In fact, if we look at developing countries, over half the world lives under thatch, but they all do it in different ways. People in developing countries are often reluctant to go back to traditional materials and would prefer modern buildings. However, they may lack the money to allow them to import the necessary materials. Their temporary mud huts with thatched roofs of wild grasses often only last six months. Thatch which has been done the British way lasts from twenty to sixty years, and is an effective defiance against the heat.Which of the following remains a unique feature of the English countryside?所选答案： C. Cottages with thatched roofs.What do we know about thatching as a craft?所选答案： D. It is in most cases handed down among family members.Thatched houses are still preferred because of ____________.所选答案： A. their style and comfortPeople in developing countries also live under thatch because ___________.所选答案： B. thatched roof houses are the cheapestWe can learn from the passage that ____________.所选答案：A. thatched cottages in England have been passed downfrom ancient times。

Many things contribute to it – smells, sounds, flavors, the very feeling of the air one is breathing. Of course, t he natives’ unfamiliar language and behavior contribute to it too. People’s responses to culture shock vary greatly, from excitement and energetic action to withdrawal, depression, physical illness, and hostility. A particular individual might react to culture shock one way one day and another the next.The notion of culture shock calls two useful points to mind. First, most people experience some degree of culture shock when they go to a new country, whether they admit it to themselves and others or not. Culture shock is more a product of the situation of being in a new culture than it is of the traveler’s personal character.Second, culture shock, like other kinds of “shock”’, is normally transitory. It passes with time.Academic analysts of the culture shock idea point out that the experience of culture shock need not be negative. While there may be some unhappiness and unpleasantness along with the confusion and disorientation, the confusion and disorientation are necessary steps in learning about a new culture. If everything in the new place is just like home, no learning will come from being there.Which of the following best summarizes the topic of the passage?所选答案： A. The nature of culture shock and its causes.问题33 得2 分，满分2 分Which of the following statements regarding the causes of culture shock is TRUE?所选答案： D. The language barrier is one of the major causes of culture shock.问题34 得2 分，满分2 分The word “transitory” (Para. 3) is closest in meaning to ______________.所选答案： A. not lasting long问题35 得2 分，满分2 分We may conclude from the second paragraph that ______________.所选答案： A.most people going to a foreign country for the first time experience culture shock问题36 得2 分，满分2 分According to academic analysts, _______________.所选答案： C. we should be aware of the positive elements of culture shock已提交11-11-29 下午9:56名称Quiz B-2-2状态已完成分数得50 分，满分50 分说明问题1 得1 分，满分1 分What was the boy’s dream?所选答案： C.

All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words.The power of words, then, lies in their associations – the things they bring up before our minds.Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increases.Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and effective use of words is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should, therefore, learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar (粗俗).The origin of language is _____________.所选答案： B. a matter that is hidden or secret问题33 得2 分，满分2 分One of the reasons why men invented certain sounds to express thoughts and actions was that _____________.所选答案： C. they could communicate with each other问题34 得2 分，满分2 分The real power of words exists in their ________________.所选答案： D. representative function问题35 得2 分，满分2 分Which of the following statements about great writers is NOT TRUE?所选答案： C.

This difference set Alfred Wegener, a young geologist, in thinking. He thought the error too great to be reasoned out easily. Wegener himself took measurements and found that since 1869 the island had moved an additional five eighths of a mile. After checking the positions of other arctic land masses, he concluded that all of them were drifting westward at different speeds. From such date, Wegener developed his floating continents theory. He pictured in mind an original supercontinent that hardened out of molten material making up the newborn earth; eventually the mass cracked and broke into several pieces –the present continents. The continents do seem to fit together like pieces of a puzzle, and furthermore, some of the mountain ranges of different continents line up rather well, as if the land masses were at one time linked. As convincing as Wegener’s argument appeared, many geologists refused to accept it, and there was heated argument. Exactly how the continents were formed is still a leading geophysical mystery, though today many geophysicists are returning to the continental drift theory.The 1869 map indicated that ______________.所选答案： A.
