Unit 1 Questions 31 to 40 are based on the same passage or dialog. Building Solid Foundations When it comes to the construction (建造) of a building, few people would argue about the importance of establishing a strong foundation. It's not different in building a business, a family, or a life. In 2000, we watched the failure of many Internet-based companies. One of the reasons for this is that these companies were built without solid foundations. A company needs more than just money and material to satisfy its basic needs; it also requires a firm base from which to build. The emphasis (重点) today is on instant satisfaction. But if we want to build something of value, something that will last, we must build a foundation that will support our goal. It takes effort and it takes conviction, but the rewards are worth it. Keep Your Eyes on What You're Building There was once a man passing by a construction site. He stopped and asked one of the tradesmen what he was doing. The worker replied simply, "I'm laying bricks(砖), can't you see that?" The man watched a while longer and then asked another worker what he was doing. "I'm just earning a living," he replied. A third time the man asked a worker and the response was much different, "I'm building a beautiful church." No doubt the personal happiness and the quality of the work from the last man was much better than from the first two. And what about us? Are we just collecting a pay check, doing hard dull work — laying bricks? Or are we building churches? By staying focused on what we're building and seeing the task at hand as accomplishing that purpose, we'll gain greater satisfaction, our work will be lighter, and we'll create more excellence. Foundations Take Time I recently watched a building being built. (I must admit I was tempted to ask some of the workers what they were doing.) For months, there seemed to be little progress. There was plenty of dust, lots of activity, but very few signs that anything was really happening. That's because they were building the foundation—thefoundation to support a great structure. And that takes time. The engineers, the head builders, and the owner certainly weren't standing around saying, "Where's the building? Why can't I see more progress?" They knew that a majority of the time to construct the building would be spent in laying the groundwork. Once the foundation is ready, the rest of the construction happens at fast speed. Even mistakes made in the superstructure (上层建筑) can be corrected without too much difficulty. But faults in the foundation CANNOT be easily repaired and will threaten the entire structure. And why should what we build be any different? We need to put strong foundations under our dreams, our businesses, and our relationships. I believe that this is where many people struggle. They're too focused on the rewards and don't give enough attention to the hard work and careful planning required in building the substructure (基础建筑). They want to start putting up walls and bringing in the business too soon. And in the end, most fail because there is not the right support. A strong foundation, built with good materials and a great deal of effort, will make your structure one that stands up to all attacks and fully supports your efforts. 547 words) 31. In creating something, it's important to ______A__________. A. have a strong foundation B. have the support of family C. have few people to argue D. have a firm construction 32. Many internet companies failed, because people thought _____________B___. A. failing was impossible B. having money and material was enough C. satisfying themselves was basic D. having a firm base came first 33. Our focus today is on ______C__________. A. supportive foundations B. instant conviction C. immediate satisfaction D. worthwhile rewards 34. Which of the men had personal happiness? _____D___________ A. The man passing by. B. The man laying bricks. C. The man making a living. D. The man constructing a church. 35. If we regard the task we are doing as accomplishing a purpose, we'll ___________A_____. A. feel more satisfied and do abetter job B. collect a big pay check C. be tempted to ask more questions D. create lots of activity 36. Constructing the foundation of a building _____B___________. A. requires great support B. needs a lot of time C. shows great progress D. happens at fast speed 37. People closely related to the building being built _______C_________. A. wondered where the building was B. stood around talking about the building C. understood the groundwork takes time D. spent a lot of money on the groundwork 38. Mistakes made in the foundation will endanger the entire structure .. 39. Instead of focusing on rewards, builders should build a good foundation with hard work and careful planning 40. A strong foundation enables your structure to stand up to all attacks and fully supports your efforts. Questions 41 to 45 are based on the same passage or dialog. Culture shock might be called an expected disease of people who have suddenly moved to some foreign countries. Like most diseases, it has its own symptoms and cure. Culture shock is started by the anxiety that results from losing all our familiar signs and sights of social activities. Those signs or cues (提示) include the thousand and one ways in which we find our place in the situation of daily life: when to shake hands and what to say when we meet people, when and how to give tips, how to make purchases, when to accept and when to refuse invitations, when to take statements seriously and when not. These cues, which may be words, gestures, expressions with the face, customs, or norms, are acquired by all of us in the course of growing up and are as much a part of our culture as the language we speak or the beliefs we accept. All of us depend for our peace of mind and our efficiency on hundreds of these cues, most of which we do not carry on the level of conscious awareness. Now when an individual enters a strange culture, all or most of these familiar cues are removed. He or she is like a fish out of water. No matter how broad-minded or full of goodwill you may be, a number of supports have been knocked out fromunder you followed by a feeling of frustration and anxiety. People respond to the frustration in much the same way. First they reject the environment which causes the discomfort. "The ways of the host country are bad because they make me feel bad." When foreigners in a strange land get together to complain about the host country and its people, you can be sure they are suffering from culture shock. Another stage of culture shock is regression. The home country suddenly assumes a great importance. To the foreigner everything becomes much greater than it really is. All the difficulties and problems are forgotten and only the good things back home are remembered. It usually takes a trip home to bring one back to reality. 41. According to the passage, culture shock is ________C_________. A. an expected disease of foreign people B. may lead to very serious symptoms C. actually not a disease D. something that can't be changed 42. According to the passage, culture shock results from _____A___________. A. the sudden loss of our own signs and sights of social activities B. the sudden change of our daily habits C. the sudden change of the social situation and customs D. the discomfort that we feel when faced with a foreigner 43. Which one of the following may NOT be the symptoms of culture shock? C A. You don't know how to express your thanks. B. You don't know how to greet other pe ople. C. You suddenly forget what a word means. D. You don't understand why a foreigner acts in a certain way. 44. How would a person who stays abroad most probably act when he is frustrated by the culture shock according to the passage? B A. He is most likely to refuse to absorb the strange environment at first. B. He may begin to hate the people or things around him. C. He is ready to accept the change and change himself to the new environment. D. Although he takes the cultural differences to be regular, he still doesn't know what to do with them. 45. This passage is most likely taken from ______D________. A. a news report B. a grammar book C. a book on medicineand psychology D. an essay on human customs Questions 46 to 50 are based on the same passage or dialog. Charlie Chaplin has broken all records in making people laugh. No one has so set a whole world laughing as the little man with the walking stick and the oversized shoes. Much has been written about Chaplin's art and his career, and opinions have ranged widely. But perhaps those who called him "the truest human being of our time" came closest to the truth. Those who have called him a genius stress the timeless and common qualities in his work. It is an art filled with sad elements and deep human feeling, with which an audience cannot help but become involved. It is for these reasons, I believe, that the figure of Charlie has attracted generation after generation. All the writers who give accounts of Chaplin's life agree that Charlie's unhappy early years in the area in London where houses were dirty and worn had a great influence on his development and on the type of films he made. Chaplin himself emphasizes it in his memoirs (回忆录). The more one reads about his earliest period, the more one tends to agree. Indeed, his suffering youth had a lasting influence on him. Chaplin was never afraid to deal with subjects causing much disagreement in his films. He gave a humorous performance on war only a few weeks before the American soldiers came home from World War I in 1918. This was regarded as madness, but the performance was well received. So perfectly did it hit the nail on the head that even the returning soldiers found it impossible to hate it and deeply appreciated this short and humorous performance on what for them had been an unpleasant reality. Chaplin gave numerous performances attacking capital governments, satirizing (讽刺) the cruelty of the machine age, and even making fun of Hitler. Years after his death, the funny films of motion picture actor and director Charlie Chaplin continue to be well loved. He is particularly well known for his success as a creator of humorous presentations that make fun of people, theestablishment, or networks. 46. All of the following about Charlie Chaplin are true except A A. he was born in the USA B. he was a great film actor C. he had an unhappy early life D. he made fun of Hitler in one of his films 47. According to the author, Charlie Chaplin has been well loved by generation after generation because _________D_____. A. he set the whole world laughing B. his performances get people involved C. his works appeal to people in different periods D. both B and C 48.

My best friend, Lily, came with me. I remember arriving at the Center the first day, assuming the staff there would take us to meet the family we were to stay with and get us settled. Instead, they handed us a piece of paper with the address and put us in a taxi. I remember how scared I was. All of a sudden I was across the ocean in a city I didn't know, and I was losing confidence in my Spanish skills quickly while trying to speak with the taxi driver. As soon as we arrived at our new home in Spain, however, I knew that I was going to spend a happy, comfortable three weekslearning and exploring. We met the mother of the family we would stay with. Her name is Fina, and she greeted us warmly with a kiss on each cheek. She shares a beautiful apartment with her two daughters, Maribel and Laura. After meeting them, I was no longer worried about things. After that first day, Lily and I were ready to explore. We went down to the bus stop and bought a month long pass so that we could easily get around the city. The people of Seville were so friendly and we simply asked a passerby for directions whenever we needed them. I quickly gained confidence in my Spanish again as I practiced more and more every day. Lily and I began to grow used to Spanish life. One of the happiest moments on my trip occurred during the last week in Seville. Lily and I were walking down the street going shopping, when a Spaniard stopped to ask us for directions! The culture there is so wonderful that it is hard to want to live any other way. After the busy life in the United States, I actually had to make myself slow down. One of the things that I loved most about Spain was the fact that there is no fast food. Before school every morning, I would of course wake up too late. Then we would rush down to the bus which we could take half-way to class. The class itself was a very exciting learning experience for me. I was so proud of myself to have taken a class entirely in Spanish, and understood what was going on. I loved the change of pace and challenged myself. My professor was a wonderful man, and made the three-hour class fly by. He had so many interesting stories about Spanish culture and life. One of the things I loved most about being in another country was meeting people from all over the world. We met students from Britain, Australia, Morocco, France, Germany, and many other countries. It was a lot of fun talking with people from so many different backgrounds and perspectives. It is hard to imagine people living so differently from the way we do in our little state of Pennsylvania. This experience is going to be helpful to my teaching because it has mademe more open-minded and bold (勇敢的). I learned that the way I am used to doing things is not always the best way. The more different perspectives and backgrounds that we can experience, the more we can learn. 36. The writer's experience in Spain ______B__________.
