crying.Fear is another emotion that is shown in much the same way all over the world.In Chinese and in English literature, a phrase like 'he went pale and began to tremble suggests that the man is either very afraid or he has just got a very big shock.However, 'he opened his eyes wide' is used to suggest anger in Chinese whereas in English it means
surprise.In Chinese surprise can be described in a phrase like 'they stretched out their tongues!' Sticking out your tongue in English is an insulting(侮辱)gesture or expresses strong dislike.Even in the same culture, people differ in their ability to understand and express feelings.Experiments in America have shown that women are usually better than men at recognizing fear, anger, love and happiness on people' faces.Other studies show that older people usually find it easier to recognize or understand body language than younger people do.46.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A)It is difficult to tell what people's words or gestures really mean.B)Gestures can be understood by most people but words can not.C)Words can be better understood by older people.D)We can easily understand what people's gestures mean.47.People's facial expressions may be misunderstood because ____________.A)people of different sexes may understand a gesture differently B)people speaking different languages have different facial expressions C)people from different cultures use different facial expressions D)people of different ages may have different interpretations 48.In the same culture, people ____________.A)hardly fail to understand each other's ideas and feelings B)are equally intelligent even if they have different backgrounds C)almost have the same understanding of the same thing D)may have different abilities to understand and express feelings 49.From the passage, we can conclude that ____________.A)words and gestures can both be used to express feelings B)gestures are more effectively used than words C)words are often more difficult to understand than gestures D)words are used as frequently as gestures 50.The best title for this passage can be ____________.A)Gestures and Feelings B)Words, Gestures and Feelings C)Words and Feelings D)Culture and Understanding Task 2 Directions: This task is the same as task 1.The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 51 through 55.When the early settlers, especially the English, arrived in the New World, the hardships, and dangers awaiting them were totally unexpected.Had it not been for some friendly Indians, the colonists never would have survived the terrible winters.They knew nothing about planting crops, hunting animals, building solid houses, or making clothing from animal skins.Life in England had been much simpler, and this new life was not like what the Spanish explorers had reported.The settlers did introduce iron tools, muskets(步枪)for hunting , domesticated animals, and political way to the Indians.In exchange, the settlers learned to build canoes(独木舟)for water transportation and snowshoes for winter traveling.The Indians also taught them to penetrate through the forest, to hunt large animals and trap smaller ones, and to catch fish in the lakes and streams.The natives also introduced to the settlers typical local food.Everything possible was done in order to make their new settlement resemble the homes they had left behind.51.Which of the following did the new settlers teach the Indians? A)New means of water travel.B)How to trap animals.C)New methods of fishing.D)New political ways.52.What can we learn about some local foods in the new land from the passage? A)They were preferred to eat raw.B)They were soon exported to England by the settlers.C)They were the main foods for Indians.D)They were also common in England.53.The Indians mainly taught the settlers to ____________.A)survive on the new land B)change their former habits C)cooperate with them D)live a better life 54.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A)The settlers had difficulty making friends with the Indians.B)The settlers soon became accustomed to the new world.C)The settlers evidently found the winters severe.D)The settlers were well prepared to encounter hardships.55.From the last sentence of the passage we can learn that ____________.A)the settlers hated to live in the new land B)the settlers had a deep love for their old homes C)the settlers would like to forget their old life D)the settlers made every effort to improve their new life Task 3 Directions: After reading the following passage, you will find 5 questions(No.56 through No.60)to it.You should give brief answers to these questions.The answers should be no more than 8 words.Write them in the corresponding space on the Answer Sheet.Investment is a key way for business to grow and for investors to make money.Numerous studies have shown that, on average, high-risk investors make more than low-risk ones.Over time the stock market rewards them for taking a risk, sometimes makes them suffer from heavy losses.Even during the 1980s, the decade of the stock market crash, one study shows that over the whole of the ten years shares profited higher than lower-risk fixed interest and property investments.This brings us to the first basic rule relating to risk: high risk equals high return.If you want to maximise your savings, take some risk with at least some of your money.Keep in mind, though, the second rule relating to risk: diversity, or spread your eggs around lots of baskets.This is partly so you won't be hurt too badly if one company fails.Research also shows that you won't be rewarded with high returns for the all-eggs-in-one-basket type of risk.In short, you're mad not to spread your money around.56.What is the possible title of this passage?
________________________________________________________________
57.What disadvantage may high-risk investors have?
High-risk investors may_________________________________________ than low-risk ones.58.What is the first basic principle about risk?
_________________________________________________________________
59.Which word has a meaning close to “spreading your money around'? _________________________________________________________________

degrees west.The largest single ice-free area lies in South Victoria Land, about 100 kilometres from New Zealand's scientific research station, Scott Base on Ross Island.The United States also has a large base at the South Pole, known as the Amundsen-Scott Base and named after two of the most important early 20th century explorers who helped
bring world attention to the continent.Only a very small proportion of the coast is easily accessible, mostly along the coast of Victoria Land and Ross Island.61.___________________________________ 62.___________________________________ 63.___________________________________ 64.___________________________________ 65.___________________________________ Task 5 Directions: Here you will find 6 sentences(marked A, B, C, D, E and F)and an incomplete short passage following them.Read them carefully and insert(插入)5 of the sentences into the passage so that it will become a meaningful complete one.One sentence will have to the dropped.Write the letter to the selected sentence in the corresponding brackets on the Answer Sheet.A: During the first months, I was immersed(沉浸)in happiness and curiosity.B: My mind was like a floating cloud, moving swiftly all the time.C: At the beginning, most of the local people thought I was too young to be a doctor.D: Then there, I felt terribly homesick.E: A few months later, I found everything seemed to have changed.F: Like a transplanted tree, I was facing the challenge of surviving in new surroundings.Dreaming of a romantic life, looking forward to a better future, I arrived in Canada in spring 1996.66.___________________ 67.______________________This kind of enthusiasm was soon gone with the wind.68.____________________ Besides language, there were other invisible cultural barriers, which, I felt, were hard to conquer.69.___________________ Moreover, the cold weather was tough for me, a student who was used to living in
