Americans generally consider themselves to be frank, open, and direct in their dealings with other people. “Let’s lay our cards on the table.” They say. Or, “Let’s stop playing games and get to the point.” These and many other phrases show the Americans’ idea that people should clearly state what they think and what they want.

Americans tend to believe that disagreements are best settled by means of long discussions among the people involved. If I dislike something you are doing, I should tell you about it directly so you will know, clearly and from me personally, how I feel about it. Bringing in other people to solve the problem is regarded as somewhat strange. And the former will be looked upon as one who is not brave enough to speak directly to someone else.

Americans will often speak openly and directly to others about things they dislike. They will try to do so in a manner they call “constructive”, that is, a manner which the other pers on will not find offensive or unacceptable. If they do not speak openly about what is in their minds, they will often express their meanings in nonverbal (非语言的) ways (without words, but through facial expressions, body positions and gestures).

Americans are not taught that they should mask their feelings as people in many Asian countries are. Their words, the tone of their voices or their facial expressions will usually reveal when they are feeling angry, unhappy, confused, or happy and satisfied.

Paper is one of the most important products ever invented by man. Wide spread use of written language would not have been possible without some cheap and practical material to write on. The invention of paper meant that more people could be educated because more books could be printed and distributed. Together with the printing press, paper provided an extremely important way to communicate knowledge.

How much paper do you use every year? Probably you cannot answer that question quickly. In 1900 the world's use of paper was about one kilogram for each person a year. Now some countries use as much as 50 kilograms of paper for each person a year. Countries like the United States, England and Sweden use more paper than other countries.

Paper, like many other things that we use today, was first made in China. In Egypt and the West, paper was not very commonly used before the year 1400. The Egyptians wrote on a kind of material made of a water plant. Europeans used parchment for many hundreds of years. Parchment was very strong; it was made from the skin of certain young animals. We have learnt of the most important facts of European history from records that were kept on parchment.

1. What's the meaning of the underlined word 'parchment'? B

A. The skin of young animals.

B. A kind of paper made from the skin of certain young animals.

C. The paper used by European countries.

D. The paper of Egypt.

Weddings ceremonies in the United States vary as much as the people do. But many weddings,

no matter where or how they are performed , include certain traditional customs. For instance, the bride and groom often exchange rings at the ceremony. The rings are usually worn on the fourth

finger of the left hand, and are exchanged in the middle of the ceremony. Today, the ring shows the couple’s love for one another.

After the ceremony, the couple is often showered with handfuls of uncooked rice by friends and family. Rice, as we know, shows productivity and harvest. And then, there is often a party, where the food is so plentiful that it almost takes the attention away from the people. Soon the bride stands in

the center of the room, often on a chair, and throws her flowers to the unmarried women at the party. Tradition says that whoever catches the flowers will be the next bride. Some women eagerly try to

catch the flower; others shy away.

And then it is time for the bride and groom to set off the tradition of a honeymoon, a trip after

the wedding. The trip nowadays varies greatly by wealth, time and preference. Sometimes the couple

will spend a single night at a nearby hotel; or they may spend two weeks at a faraway foreign city as well.

The fridge is considered a necessity. It has been so since the 1960s when packaged food first appeared with the label: "store in the refrigerator".

In my fridgeless Fifties childhood, I was fed well and healthily. The milkman came daily, the grocer, the butcher, the baker, and the ice-cream man delivered two or three times a week. The Sunday meat would last until Wednesday and surplus（剩余的）bread and milk became all kinds of cakes. Nothing was wasted, and we were never troubled by rotten food. Thirty years on, food deliveries have ceased; fresh vegetables are almost unobtainable in the country.

The invention of the fridge contributed comparatively little to the art of food preservation. A vast way of well-tried techniques already existed — natural cooling, drying, smoking, salting,

心系天下求学人Page 4 of 10 专业专注周到细致

sugaring, bottling ...

What refrigeration did promote was marketing — marketing hardware and electricity, marketing soft drinks, marketing dead bodies of animals around the globe in search of a good price.

Consequently, most of the world's fridges are to be found, not in the tropics where they might prove useful, but in the wealthy countries with mild temperatures where they are climatically almost unnecessary. Every winter, millions of fridges hum away（不断地嗡嗡作响）continuously, and at vast expense, busily maintain an artificially-cooled space inside and artificially-heated house —while outside, nature provides the desired temperature free of charge.

The fridge's effect upon the environment has been evident, while its contribution to human happiness has been insignificant. If you don't believe me, try it yourself, invest in a food cabinet（橱柜）and turn off your fridge next winter. You may miss the hamburgers, but at least you’ll get rid of that terrible hum.

1. The statement “In my fridgeless Fifties childhood, I was fed well and healthily.” (Para. 2) suggest that_______C_____ .

A. the author was well-fed and healthy even without a fridge in his fifties

B. the author was not accustomed to using fridges even in his fifties

C. there was no fridge in the author's home in the 1950s

D. the fridge was in its early stage of development in the 1950s

解析：词语释义题。选项 C 是正确答案。

2. Why does the author say that nothing was wasted before the invention of fridges? D

A. People would not buy more food than was necessary.

B. Food was delivered to people two or three times a week.

C. Food was sold fresh and did not get rotten easily.

D. People had effective ways to preserve their food.

解析：细节题。选项D为正确答案。

3. Who benefited the least from fridges according to the author? B

Not so long ago almost any student who successfully completes a university degree or diploma course could find a good career quite easily. However, those days are gone, even in Hong Kong, and nowadays graduates often face strong competition in the search for jobs.

Job seekers first have to make a careful assessment of their own abilities. One area of assessment should be of their academic qualifications, which would include special skills within their subject area. Graduates should also consider their own personal values and attitudes, or the relative importance to themselves of such matters as money, security, leadership and caring for others.

The second stage is to study the opportunities available for employment and to think about how the general employment situation is likely to develop in the future. After studying all the various options, they should be in a position to make informed comparisons between various careers.

Job application forms and letters should, of course, be filled in carefully and correctly, without

grammar or spelling errors.

When graduates are asked to attend for interview, they should prepare properly by finding out all they can about the prospective employer. Dressing suitably and arriving for the interview on time are also obviously important. Interviewees should try to give positive and helpful answers and should not be afraid to ask questions about anything they are unsure about. This is much better than pretending to understand a question and giving an unsuitable answer.

There will always be good career opportunities for people with ability, skills and determination; the secret to securing a good job is to be one of them.

1. In Para.1, the sentence "... those days are gone, even in Hong Kong ..." suggest

that_______A_____.

A. in the past, finding a good career was easier in Hong Kong than elsewhere

B. nowadays, everyone in Hong Kong has an equal chance of finding a good career

C. it used to be harder to find a good job in Hong Kong than in other countries

D. Hong Kong is no longer the good place for finding jobs

解析：句意理解题。选项 A 是正确答案。

2. The word "relative" in Para. 2 could best be replaced by "___B_________".

A. family

B. comparative

C. considerable

D. slight

解析：句中的名词短语，选项 B 是正确答案。

3. The advice given in the first sentence of Para.3 is to______B______.

A. find out what jobs are available and the opportunities for future promotion

B. examine the careers available and how these will be affected in the future

C. look at the information on, and probable future location of, various careers

D. study the opportunities and the kinds of training that will be available

解析：细节题。选项 B 是正确答案。

4. The word "prospective" in Para. 5 is closest in meaning to "_____C_______".

D. it is not a good idea for interviewees to be completely honest in their answers

解析：细节题目。选项 C 是正确答案。

Dream is a story that a person “watches” or even takes part in during sleep. Dream events are ima ginary, but they are related to real experiences and needs in the dreamer’s life. They seem real while they are taking place. Some dreams are pleasant, others are annoying, and still others are frightening.

Everyone dreams, but some persons never recall dreaming. Others remember only a little about a dream they had just before awakening and nothing about earlier dreams. No one recalls all his dreams.

Dreams involve little logical thought. In most dreams, the dreamer cannot control what happens to him. The story may be confusing, and things happen that would not happen in real life. People see in most dreams, but they may also hear, smell, touch, and taste in their dreams. Most dreams occur in color, but persons who have been blind since birth do not see at all in dreams.

Dreams are a product of the sleeper’s mind. They include events and feelings that he has experienced. Most dreams are related to events of the day before the dream and strong wishes of the dreamer. Many minor incidents of the hours before sleep appear in dreams. Few events more than two days old turn up. Deep wishes or fears——especially those held since childhood——often appear in dreams, and many dreams fulfill such wishes. Events in the sleeper’s surrounding——a loud noise, for example, may become part of a dream, but they do not cause dreams.

Some dreams involve deep feelings that a person may not realize he has. Psychiatrists(精神病医生) often use material from a patient’s dreams to help the person understand himself better.

Dreaming may help maintain good learning ability, memory, and emotional adjustment. People who get plenty of sleep——but are awakened each time they begin to dream——become anxious and restless.

1. This passage is mainly about ____C_____.

If you want average temperatures and rainfall, St. Louis, Missouri, is the spot, or if you ? re a cold weather fan, head to Fairbanks, Alaska? Its winters are very cold with little precipitation（冰雹）?Each of these cities has a certain type of weather. The average weather for a place over many years is called climate, and in no two places in the world is it exactly the same? How can this be? Many things in nature, such as sunshine, temperature, and precipitation, affect climate. Nearness to mountain, oceans, and large lakes affects it too. Another factor is altitude, or height above sea leve 1. Air cools as altitude increases? So a city at a higher altitude may be colder than one at a lower altitude? Finally winds affect climate. They move heat and moisture between the oceans and continents? Winds keep the tropics（热带地区）from overheating. They keep the polar （极地的）regions from getting overly cold. Climate changes over long periods of time? Some scientists think, for example, that the earth s climate changed at the time of the dinosaurs? They think the dinosaurs died because of the change. What causes a climate to change? One possible cause may be changes in the sun. Sunspots, for example, are cool, dark spots that form on the sun. Sunspots may decrease precipitation on the earth and cause unusually dry periods. Changes in the atmosphere may change climate too. Volcanic
