四、Reading Comprehension (60 points)Directions: There are four reading passages in this part.Each passage is followed by five questions.For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D.Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on ANSWER SHEET Ⅰ.

Americans and Arabs are different in their space habits. Arabs prefer close contact. Dr.Hall has explained that the Arabs belong to a touch culture and in conversation,they always envelop the other person. They hold his hand,look into his eyes,and bathe him in their breath.

Dr.Hall’s interest in man’s use of space developed in the early nineteen fifties when he was Director of the Point Four training program at the Foreign Service Institute. In talking with Americans who had lived overseas,he found that many of them had been highly uncomfortable because of culture differences. Such discomfort is usually referred to as culture shock.

The problem is that,relatively speaking, Americans live in a noncontact culture. Partly,this is a product of our puritan heritage(清教徒文化遗产). Dr.Hall points out that we spend years teaching our children not to crowd in and lean on us. And in situations where we ourselves are forced to stand close to another person on crowded subways,for example,we turn our eyes away,and if actual body contact is involved,tense the muscles on the contact side. Most of us feel very strongly that this is the only proper way to behave.

第61题 When the Arabs talk to you,they __________.

A. .try to be as close to you as possible

B. keep a certain space from you

C. hold you tightly

D. do not allow you to feel their breath

A. a noncontact culture is usually referred to as culture shock

B. there is evidence that Americans belong to a touch culture

C. there is evidence that Arabs share a noncontact culture

D. our use of space is influenced by our cultures

【正确答案】D

It seems that beauty and women are twins.You are joking?No,I am not.Observe for yourself. Ads on fashion flood TV screens,radio programs,magazines,newspapers,and the streets. Whether they have realized or not,women are besieged(包围)by a sea of fashion. They are taught to think that without beautiful clothes they will grow old and lose their charm. So who dares to neglect dressing up at the cost of their appearance and youth

But I do not agree with the opinion that women have to show their beauty through their looks.The richness of their mind proves to be more beautiful and attractive than their looks. A woman who has experienced many troubles and may be called“aunt”or“granny”can still maintain her beauty if she has such excellent qualities as knowledge,ability,a kind heart,great courage and concern for others.

In addition,old and young,beautiful and ugly are relative concepts. People who keep a young mind will never feel old. Curious about new things and eager to learn more,they keep up with the tide. Plainly dressed women may have a type of beauty,which is pure and real.

Reading and learning is the best way to keep one youthful. Good books are fertile soil which can feed the flower of one’s heart and looks.

第66题 Why does the author say that beauty and women are twins?

A. Women are born to be beauties.

B. Women like to show off their beauty.

C. Women try to maintain their beauty by dressing up.

D. Women are proud of their beauty.

【正确答案】C

第67题 According to the author,in order to stay young and attractive,women should__________ .

A. follow the fashion

B. dress up in beautiful clothes

C. do more exercises

D. enrich their mind

【正确答案】D

第68题 Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A. As a woman grows old,her beauty will gradually disappear.

B. However old she is,a woman with some excellent qualities can still maintain her beauty.

C. Even a plainly dressed woman may have pure and real beauty.

D. A woman with a young mind never feels old.

【正确答案】A

第69题 The word relative(Line 1,Paragraph 3)most probably means__________ .

A. similar

B. comparative

C. related

D. independent

【正确答案】B

第70题 The author believes that __________.

Sports fans all over the world recognize the name Michael Jordan. From Taiwan to Tennessce,kids wear clothes with his picture on them. Jerseys(球服)with his number 23 on the front,jackets with the Bulls on the back,and Air Jordan sports shoes all reflect the fame of this superstar. Michael Jordan has become the most famous attraction of the world’s favorite spectator sport.

The next year,however,he grew tall enough to join the team.

Exercise,everyone advises! But immediately,when you try,you run into trouble. There is so much contradictory,sometimes incorrect advice about exercising that you become confused. Test yourself on the following true?false quiz. It will tell you what you need to know.

1.To lose weight you should always“work up a good sweat”when exercising.

False. Sweating only lowers body temperature to prevent overheating:it does not help you reduce weight. You may weigh less immediately after a workout,but this is due to water loss. Once you replace the liquid,you replace the weight.

2.You burn more calories jogging one mile than walking the same distance.

False. You use the same amount of energy whether you walk or jog the mile,since in both cases you are moving the same weight the same distance. The speed doesn’t matter. Of course,if you jog rather than walk for 30 minutes, you’ll cover more distance,and therefore burn more calories.

3.If your breathing doesn’t return to normal within minutes after you finish exercising,you’ve exercised too much.

True. Five minutes or so after exercising,your breathing should be normal,your heart shouldn’t be pounding,and you shouldn’t be exhausted. Beneficial exercise is not too difficult,unpleasant,and exhausting;it is enjoyable and refreshing.

4.Walking is one of the best exercises.

True. Walking helps circulation of blood throughout the body,and thus has a direct effect on your overall feeling of health.
