    Body language is the quiet, secret and most powerful language of all! It speaks   1   than words. According to specialists, our bodies send out more   2   than we realize. In fact, non-verbal communication (非言语交际) makes up about 50% of what we really   3  . And body language is particularly   4   when we attempt to communicate across cultures (文化). Indeed, what is called body language is so   5   a part of us that it’s actually often unnoticed. And misunderstandings occur as a result of it.   6  , different societies treat the   7 between people differently. Northern Europeans usually do not like having   8   contact (接触) even with friends, certainly not with   9 .
    People from Latin American countries,   10  , touch each other quite a lot. Therefore, it’s possible that in   11  , it may look like a Latino is   12  a Norwegian all over the room. The Latino, trying to express friendship, will keep moving   13  . The Norwegian, very probably seeing this as pushiness, will keep   14   -which the Latino will in return regard as   15 _ .
    Clearly, a great deal is going on when people   16  . And only a part of it is in the words themselves. And when parties are from   17  cultures, there’s a strong possibility of   18  . But whatever the situation, the best   19  is to obey the Golden Rule: treat others as you would like to be   20 _.

    Most worthwhile careers require some kind of specialized training. Ideally, therefore, the choice of an __16__ should be made even before choice of a curriculum（课程） in high school. Actually, __17__, most people make several job choices during their working lives, __18__ because of economic and industrial changes and partly to improve __19__ position. The "one perfect job" does not exist. Young people should __20__ enter into a broad flexible training program that will __21__ them for a field of work rather than for a single __22__ .
    Unfortunately many young people have to make career plans __23__ benefit of help from a competent vocational counselor or psychologist. Knowing __24__ about the occupational world, or themselves for that matter, they choose their lifework on a hit-or-miss __25__. Some drift from job to job. Others __26__ to work in which they are unhappy and for which they are not fitted.
    One common mistake is choosing an occupation for __27__ real or imagined prestige (声望). Too many high-school students - or their parents for them - choose the professional field, __28__ both the relatively small percentage of workers in the professions and the extremely high educational and personal __29__. The imagined or real prestige of a profession or a white-collar job is __30__ good reason for choosing it as life's work. __31__, these occupations are not always well paid. Since a large percentage of jobs are in mechanical and manual work, the __32__ of young people should give serious __33__ to these fields.
    Before making an occupational choice, a person should have a general idea of what he wants __34__ life and how hard he is willing to work to get it. Some people desire social prestige, others intellectual satisfaction. Some want security; others are willing to take __35__ for financial gain. Each occupational choice has its demands as well as its rewards.

    D
    One of the main challenges facing many countries is how to maintain their identity in the face of globalization and the growing multi-language trend. “One of the main reasons for economic failure in many African countries is the fact that, with a few important exceptions, mother-tongue education is not practiced in any of the independent African states.” said Neville Alexander, Director of the Project for the Study of Alternative Education in South Africa at the University of Cape Town.
    In response to the spread of English and the increased multi-language trends arising from immigration, many countries have introduced language laws in the laws in the last decade. In some, the use of languages other than the national language is banned in public spaces such as advertising posters. One of the first such legal provisions was the 1994 “Toubon law” in France, but the idea has been copied in many countries since then. Such efforts to govern language use are often dismissed as futile by language experts, who are well aware of the difficulty in controlling fashions in speech and know from research that language switching among bilinguals is a natural process.
    It is especially difficult for native speakers of English to understand the desire to maintain the “purity” of a language by law. Since the time of Shakespeare, English has continually absorbed foreign words into its own language. English is one of the most mixed and rapidly changing languages in the world, but there has not been a barrier to acquiring prestige and power. Another reason for the failure of many native English speakers to understand the role of state regulation is that it has never been the Anglo-Saxon way of doing things. English has never had a state-controlled authority for the language, similar, for example, to the Academic Francaise in France.
    The need to protect national languages is, for most western Europeans, a recent phenomenon—especially the need to ensure that English does not unnecessarily take over too many fields. Public communication, education and new modes of communication promoted by technology, may be key fields to defend.
    小题1:Neville Alexander believes that         .
    A．mother-tongue education is not practiced in all African countries
    B．lack of mother-tongue education can lead to economic failure
    C．globalization has led to the rise of multi-language trends
    D．globalization has resulted in the economic failure of Africa
    小题2:The underlined word “futile” (in paragraph 2) most probably means “        “.     
    A．uselessB．practicalC．workableD．unnecessary
    小题3:Why do many English-speaking countries not support the language protection efforts described in the passage?
    A．They think language protection laws are ineffective.
    B．They want their language to spread to other countries.
    C．They have a long history of taking words from other languages.
    D．It reduces a language’s ability to acquire international importance.
    小题4:What can we infer from the last paragraph?
    A．English has taken over fields like public communication and education.
    B．Europeans have long realized the need to protect their national languages.
    C．Most language experts believe it is important to promote a national language.
    D．Many aspects of national culture are threatened by the spread of English.
    小题5:The main idea of the passage is       .  
    A．Fighting against the rule of English
    B．Globalization and multi-language trends
    C．Protecting local languages and identities
    D．To maintain the purity of language by law

    There is no doubt that watching television and movies can influence the way that people behave. Moreover, it seems that people are spending more and more time watching some sort of visual entertainment, whether it is television, a video tape or a DVD. Therefore, the effects of the visual media cannot be ignored.
    One obvious effect of these media is that watching them induces(诱导)people to buy certain products. Television advertising is widespread and, nowadays, even movie theaters permit advertisements. Another way TV and the movies affect people is that they give people either a broader view of the world or a distorted(扭曲的)one, depending on what type of program they watch. Those who watch news and educational programs can learn many new things while those who watch primarily entertainment shows may come to believe that most people in the world have great wealth and good looks. It may make them become dissatisfied with their own lives. Finally perhaps the most susceptible(易受影响的)viewers are children, who may be unable to tell fact from fiction and may try to copy acts that they see on TV or in the movies.
    With the ever-increasing popularity of video entertainment, society must pay attention to these effects. Television and movies, while entertaining and informative, cannot take the place of real experiences.
    小题1:From the passage, we know that watching television and movies can             .
    A．make people live betterB．make people feel pleased
    C．make people change their way of life D．make people live worse
    小题2:The writer holds the view that            .
    A．people may take no notice of the effects of the visual media
    B．people must pay attention to the effects of the visual media
    C．the effects of the visual media make the world changed greatly
    D．the visual media only affect young people
    小题3:Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
    A．Those who watch news and educational programs can earn a lot of money and become very pretty.
    B．The reason why most people possess great wealth and good looks is that they often watch television advertising.
    C．People buy products only when they are induced by television advertising.
    D．People who watch primarily entertainment shows may come to believe that most people in the world are rich and beautiful.
    小题4:What would be the best title for this text?
    A．The Influence of Television and Movies
    B．The Reason Why People Watch Television and Movies
    C．Television and Movies Induce People
    D．The Importance of Television and Movies

    阅读下面短文，并根据要求完成文章后的题目。(请将答案写在答题卡对应题号的横线上。)
    Too often young people get themselves employed quite by accident, not knowing whether there will be opportunities for promotion (晋升), happiness and security. As a result, they are employed in doing jobs that afford them little or no satisfaction.     
    Our school leavers face so much competition that they seldom care what they do as long as they can earn a living. Some stay long at a job and learn to like it; others leave one for another looking for something to suit them. The young graduates leave the university with the dream of looking for jobs that offer a salary up to their expectation.
    Very few go out into the world knowing exactly what they want and the limits of their own abilities. The cause behind all this confusion is that there has never been a proper vocational（职业的） guidance in our educational institutions. Nearly all the graduates feel their way in the dark. Their chief concern is the salary. They never bother to think whether they are suited for the job or, even more important, whether the job suits them. Having a job is more than merely providing one and one’ s dependants with daily bread and some money for leisure and entertainment. It sets a pattern of life and, in many ways, determines a person ’s social status in life and selection of friends, leisure and interest.
    In choosing a profession, one should first consider which type of work will suit his or her interest. Nothing is sadder than taking on a job in which one has no interest, for it will not only ruin one’ s talents but also discourage one’ s desire to succeed in life.
    小题1:According to Paragraph l, why do many young people find their jobs unsatisfactory? (within 10 words)
    _______________________________________________________________________________
    小题2:According to Paragraph 2, what do university graduates expect of their future jobs? ‘(within l0 words)

    小题3:What does the underlined word “dependants” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? (within 10 words)
    _______________________________________________________________________________
    小题4:According to Paragraph 3, why are the .university graduates confused when they find jobs? (within 10 words)
    _______________________________________________________________________________
    小题5:According to the author, what is the most important in choosing a job? (within 10 words)

    Friends play a very important part in everyone’s life. Friendship usually develops during childhood. New friends are made when you progress through school. Those friends that you make as a student can usually last long. Friends influence (影响) your development, maturity (成熟) and sense of responsibility. A familiar expression is “You can tell a lot about a person by knowing who his friends are.” Friendship is based on common interests. If you like sports, most of your friends are likely to be athletic (竞技的). If you enjoy reading and shopping, most of your friends do the same.
    Some people call you their friends for the wrong reasons. These people are not really friends. They are superficial(表面上的) only “friends” on the outside, not the inside where it counts. Superficial friends only want to be your friends if it is to their advantage. True friends are there if you are rich or poor. It is easy to have many so-called “friends” if you are rich. By this time you should be able to separate your friends into the real or the “phoney”.
    True friends are most special. They are also difficult to find. You can consider yourself very lucky if you have one true friend. This friend is eager to help you whenever necessary. He or she knows you would do the same for them. A true friend is someone you can talk to about any subject or problem. You and your true friend have good understanding of each other. True friends support you, take your side, and build up your confidence.
    小题1:The first paragraph tells us _____.
    A．how to make a true friend
    B．we should make friend in our childhood
    C．what is friendship based on
    D．friends play a very important part in our life
    小题2:Which of the following is TRUE?
    A．What you value above anything is the friendship developing during childhood.
    B．The friendship developing during your school days will be with you for a long time.
    C．Only through your friends’ influence will you take the responsibility for your task.
    D．If you have no music in you, none of your friends will be a music lover.
    小题3:“So-called” friends in paragraph 2 refer to _____.
    A．someone who only wants to be your friend when you are successful
    B．those who want to benefit from you
    C．the friends who are on the surface only
    D．all the above
    小题4:Which of the following is NOT TRUE?
    A．You should tell true friends from phoneys.

    More than 87 million tickets were bought for the Pennsylvania lottery drawing . Those who bought tickets had to choose seven numbers from 1 to 80 The chance of winning was one in 9.6 million.

    MySpace, the social networking website, is different from other websites which only provide stories about other people. MySpace is a place that allows you to broadcast your own stories and personal information to as many people as you like. Started two years ago, it is a big source of information for and about American kids.
    Teenagers and their parents feel very differently about it. Teens are rushing to join the site, not sharing their parents' worries. It signals yet another generation gap in the digital era.（数字时代）
