Each passage is followed by five questions or statements. Choose the best answer to each question or decide T/F for each statement.Passage OneIn the United States, 30 percent of the adult population has a "weight problem". To many people, the cause is obvious: they eat too much. But scientific evidence does little to support this idea. Going back to the America of the 1910s, we find that peoplewere thinner than today, yet they ate more food. In those days people worked harder physically, walked more, used machines much less and didn't watch television.Several modem studies, moreover, have shown that fatter people do not eat more on average than thinner people. In fact, some investigations, such as the 1979 study of 3, 545 London office workers, report that, on balance, fat people eat less than slimmer people.Studies show that slim people are more active than fat people. A study by a research group at Stanford University School of Medicine found the following interesting facts: The more the men ran, the more body fat they lost.The more they ran, the greater amount of food they ate.Thus, those who ran the most ate the most, yet lost the greatest amount of body fat.11.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A), B), C) and D) . You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage 1Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage: Effective communication with people of different cultures is especially challenging. Cultures provide people with ways of thinking—ways of seeing, hearing, and interpreting the world. Thus the same words can mean different things to people from different cultures, even when they speak the "same" language. When thelanguages are different, and translation has to be used to communicate, the potential for misunderstandings increases.Stella Ting-Toomey describes three ways in which culture interferes with effective cross-cultural understanding. First is what she calls "cognitive constrains (认知约束)". These are the frames of reference or world views that provide a background that all new information is compared to or inserted into.Second are "behavior constraints". Each culture has its own rules about proper behavior which affect verbal (用言辞的) and nonverbal communication. Whether one looks the other person in the eye or not; whether one says what one means openly or talks around the issue; how close people stand to each other when they are talking—all of these and many more are rules of politeness which differ from culture to culture.Ting-Toomey's third factor is "emotional constraints". Different cultures regulate the display of emotion differently. Some cultures get very emotional when they are debating an issue. They shout, they cry, they exhibit their anger, fear, and other feelings openly. Other cultures, on the other hand, try to keep theiremotions hidden.All of these differences tend to lead to communication problems. If the people involved are not aware of the potential for such problems, they are even more likely to fall victim to them, although it takes more than awareness to overcome these problems and communicate effectively across cultures.31. What poses challenges for effective communication?A) Cultural differences. B) Language differences.C) Words with different meaning. D) Unsuccessful interpretation and translation.32. The expression "frames of reference" most probably refers to .A) the sum total of old and new informationB) the main ideas and facts that something is based onC) knowledge and beliefs that influence the way one thinksD) some reference materials that one can look up when necessary33. With regard to "behavior constraints", Stella Ting-Toomey means that .A) rules about proper behavior vary from culture tocultureB) people should try to be straightforward when communicatingC) eye contact is very important in interpersonal communicationD) proper distance should always be kept in mind when communicating34. When debating an issue, .A) people get angry easilyB) people tend to get over-excitedC) people may show their feelings differentlyD) people should try to hide their true feelings35. According to the last paragraph, to overcome communication problems, people shouldA) show more understanding of other culturesB) learn the strategy of effective communicationC) be involved in communication as much as possibleD) be aware of the potential danger of such problemsPassage 2Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage: Whenever I find myself banking on future good fortune, I tend to think, "Don't count your chickensbefore they hatch (孵化). "Germans express the same idea like this, "You have to catch the hare (野兔) before you can roast him. " The French say: "You can't sell the bear's skin until you've caught him. "Proverbs (谚语) abound in all languages. We use proverbs to make points more convincingly and more memorably than most of us could otherwise manage. We also use proverbs because they lend a measure of authority to our opinions, suggesting that what we are saying is simply common sense.Yet proverbial wisdom can be contradictory. We warn the cautious against hesitation with "He who hesitates is lost, " but we also warn the bold, "Look before you leap. " We may say that "Absence makes the heart grow fonder, " but we also say, "Out of sight, out of mind. ""Proverbs are not universal truths, " says Wolfgang Mieder, professor of German at the University of Vermont. "Proverbs represent life; therefore, there will be contradictory proverbs. "I admit, however, to having once spent several uncomfortable minutes in Japan after having come outwith "The child of a frog is a frog, " the Japanese version of "The apple doesn't fall far from the tree"—only to be met with blank, uncomprehending stares. It seems that the Japanese word for "frog" sounds much like the Japanese verb "to return". My hosts must have thought that I was saying something like The Return of Frog-Boy.When people at the table finally grasped what I was trying to say, they burst into laughter. It gave me a perfect opening for "Fall down seven times, get up eight. " That's the Japanese version of "If at first you don't succeed . . . try, try again. "36. What does the phrase "bank on" (Para. 1) probably mean?A) To invest. B) To look for. C) To depend on. D) To work hard.37. According to the passage, which of the following is a reason why people use proverbs?A) Proverbs are easy to memorize. B) Proverbs are about popular wisdom.C) Proverbs can be found in all languages. D) Proverbs make conversations interesting.38. The two pairs of proverbs in Para. 4 are used to illustrate that .A) proverbs should be used cautiously B) proverbs can express opposite ideasC) proverbs can sometimes be misleading D) proverbs are created by ordinary people39. Why did the author's attempt at using a proverb fail?A) Because he misunderstood the proverb.B) Because his Japanese friends lacked humor.C) Because he mispronounced a Japanese word.D) Because his Japanese friends didn't like proverbs.40. What does the proverb "The apple doesn't fall far from the tree" (Para. 6) mean?A) Never give up in the face of difficulty.B) Never assume that you're going to be lucky.C) When you miss someone, you love him or her more.D) A child often grows up to be very similar to his or her parents.Passage 3Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage: The term "culture shock" was originally coined toexplain the intense experiences of people who found themselves on overseas assignments in roles such as diplomats (外交官), international students, technical assistance advisors, or businesspeople. Over the last thirty years, the term has expanded to include other types of experiences people have when they move across cultural boundaries within any one country. Occasionally, culture shock is used to explain reactions to the new and the unfamiliar. Examples include going away to college, getting married, or being forced to go on welfare after years of productive employment.The complaints people have when experiencing culture shock are very similar, whether they are international students, overseas businesspeople, or members of an underrepresented ethnic group. Such individuals experience a sense of frustration (沮丧) and helplessness at their inability to meet their everyday needs. They feel lonely and find it hard to meet people and to develop international relationships. Victims of culture shock often become suspicious of others and come to believe that others are "out to get them". People also report a predictable set of physical symptoms. They complain of stomachaches, inability tosleep, headaches, general feelings of tiredness, mild depression, and a lack of enthusiasm for life.Many organizations now sponsor (赞助) programs to help prepare people for life's transitions (转折). Most commonly called "cross-cultural training programs", one of the goals of such programs is to introduce people to various experiences they are likely to encounter. During the programs, participants are commonly told that the experiences associated with "culture shock" are normal and are to be expected. Knowledge of what culture shock is, how frequently it is experienced, and effective coping strategies can aid in reducing people's stress.41. Who were the victims of culture shock when the term was first created?A) The newly-weds. B) College freshmen.C) People who were sent overseas. D) People newly recruited in the military.42. When do people suffer from culture shock?A) When they are forced to leave their original jobs.B) When they have to move from one place to another.C) When they express their complaints aboutsomething.D) When they have to deal with something new and unfamiliar.43. Which of the following is true of people suffering from culture shock?A) They don't trust others. B) They can't live by themselves.C) They don't want to meet people. D) They will have mental disorder.44. What is the aim of "cross-cultural training programs"?A) To help people behave normally. B) To reduce people's stress from life.C) To prepare people for culture shock. D) To share experiences of culture shock.45. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A) Culture Shock. B)Cross-cultural Training.C) Experiencing Culture Shock. D) Symptoms of Culture Shock.Section BDirections: In this section, there is a passage with 10 blanks.

In the US, birthplace of the blues, the number of music lounges (雅座酒吧) devoted to blues has grown over 50 percent since 1990 to 1, 360, according to Fortune magazine. Among the most notable additions are the House of Blues, established by the legendary (传奇式的) creator of the Hard Rock Cafe, and Fleetwood's, set up by the Fleetwood Mac drummer.If anything, the blues are even more popular in Europe. Many US blues musicians have lived there at some time or another. Europeans consider the blues a serious art form and treat these old-time bluesmen with great respect. Seventy percent of blues record sales worldwide, rather surprisingly, take place in Europe. The best selling blues album (密纹唱片) in the world right now is From the Cradle by English superstar EricClapton, who with this album pays respect to the inspiration of his music all these years.The blues have even surrounded the Philippines. Japan and Australia have flourishing (蒸蒸日上) blues scenes, with many well-established local players and frequent concerts by visiting blues legend.While the explosion is booming worldwide, in Manila it's more like a firecracker (鞭炮) pop. But things are changing. There's sudden interest, scattered at the moment, but definite, cracking through Manila.Of all the countries, the Philippines should be listening carefully to the blues. Many of the conditions that faced the US bluesmen and gave birth to the blues, from the early days in the Southern cotton fields to the urban slums (贫民窟) of today, bear surprising similarities to conditions here in the Philippines.

大学英语三级测试题College English （Band Three）Part I Writing (30minutes)(15%)注意：此部分试题在答题卡1上。
Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes) (10%) Directions:In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions on Answer Sheet 1.For questions 1-7, markY (for YES) if the statement agrees with the information given in the passage;N (for NO) if the statement contradicts the information given in the passage;NG (for NOT GIVEN) if the information is not given in the passage.For questions 8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.Preparing for TestsIdeally it should be love of learning, achievement, and self-improvement that prompts all learning. But the average student is probably motivated by a more tangible, immediate, and pressuring reason—the requirement to take and pass tests. Few high school students are not concerned with the aptitude and achievement tests that they must take to get into college. Even students not planning to attend college will take placement, adaptability, and promotion tests if they are to succeed in their field. Promotion in the armed services does not depend on physical prowess (本领) and length of service. It depends, instead, on the ability to study and pass promotional tests. You need to understand the importance of tests, the best methods of preparation, the common sense required for both a physical and mental approach to them, how to read instructions and questions correctly, and how to answer the way the test or teacher expects you to answer. This is one of the most valuable psychological benefits that can come from your education.Attitude Toward TestsDr. Francis P. Robinson in his book, Effective Study, poses a question: "Did you ever thank a teacher for giving a test?" At first glance you are not likely to find much in your thinking that would help inspire a "yes". The teacher spends a lot of time preparing the test questions. After you have taken the test, the teacher spends many hours carefully evaluating your paper. Mistakes are marked so that when your paper is returned you can go over them and perhaps write in corrections. Then you will not make the same mistakes again.Test as a Personal BattleDo you, like many of your fellow students, consider the test or examination as a personal battle which the teacher wages in an attempt to defeat you, or do you see it as a contest in which one tries to outwit the other? If this is your attitude towards tests, you probably do one of two things when the teacher returns your paper to you. One, you throw it away without bothering to do more than glance through it to see where points were taken off. Or two, without checking an incomplete answer against the facts as studied, you approach the teacher and demand to know why points were taken off. This is the most negative of approaches. The difference in attitude can be seen in the difference between two questions: “Why did you take off poi nts on this question?”, and "Whatshould I have included that I did not?"Fear of Taking TestsAnother attitude that you should avoid is that of fear. Fear of taking tests results in tension and disturbed thinking. These, in turn, produce blind spots (not being able to remember answers that you knew ten minutes before the test) and careless mistakes. This fear also keeps people from venturing into new areas in life. They may visualize the new method, the better tool, or the strong bridge, but they hesitate until someone else realizes their dreams.Fear prevents success on tests and examinations because fear conditions the mind for failure. Students who are afraid start in a state of confusion and disorder. Thus they throw away the advantages they have gotten by preparation. Students who approach tests with fear are almost always characterized by the following. (1)Their grade is considerably lower than their daily recitation grades, sometimes as much as twenty points lower. (2)They complain about the teacher--insufficient explanation, lack of detailed review, etc. (3) They find fault with the test materials--too long, not the type of questions' expected and studied for, didn't understand the wording of questions. (4) Their preparation consists of a frantic last-ditch effort. They suffer from loss of sleep almost to the point of total exhaustion, and often loss of important notes or review material just when they are needed most. (5) Fear drives these students to study for the test with another student. Invariably they choose a study companion who has the same attitude of fear. Often the other student's knowledge of the subject is only equal to, or perhaps less than, their own.If you recognize two or more of these characteristics as behavior patterns which you practice at test and examination time, you should change your attitude as quickly as possible. To continue them is to subject yourself to a climate of tension and fear and to condition yourself for defeat.A Positive Approach to TestsA third attitude is wholly positive. It is the attitude of challenge, self-confidence, and content-reliability. Students who accept a test as a challenge to show the teacher the extent of their knowledge of the subject and to improve their grades are stimulated. This stimulation produces the energy needed to think clearly and to act with precision over a longer period of concentration than the daily recitation requires. The attitude of challenge is reflected by enterprising rather than burdensome preparation. Self-confidence develops from this adequate preparation. There is no room for tension and fear. Even a questionable answer is approached by a calculated reliability. The belief is that a worthwhile answer, although perhaps only partially correct, can be worked out. This attitude requires the relationship between student and teacher, and question and answer, always to be one of cooperative production rather than competitive destruction.To adopt an attitude of challenge and self-confidence toward tests and examinations, you must first understand the real purposes of test.Reasons for TestsMotivationFrom the student's point of view, the first reason for tests is motivation. Few of us are self-disciplined and motivated enough to educate ourselves without direction and requirement. Being tested periodically on accumulated knowledge is a strong motivating force.Chance to Show KnowledgeA second reason for tests is that they provide students with a chance to show how much they have learned.Daily recitation does not provide such an opportunity. A test gives the students a chance toshow their ability to organize and unify large volumes of material. This is not possible in preparing for day-to-day assignments.Prediction of Future TestsA third reason is that students gain insight into what the teacher considers most important. If test questions deal with main topics and essential principles, the student can accurately estimate the nature of future and larger tests.Discovery of Weaknesses and ProgressA fourth important reason is that students can discover both their shortcomings and the extent of their progress. They can carefully study their errors and the general areas in which they occur. They can see a pattern to their errors. They can take steps to correct their weaknesses. They can measure their progress in that subject. And most important of all, they can measure whether or not their mental growth is keeping up with the demand of the subject.Now that you understand the reasons for tests and examinations, and how they benefit both student and teacher, you should not groan when a test is announced. Do not approach it as a burdensome chore or with light indifference. Approach it with an honest and determined effort for self-improvement. If you manage this, your grade will manage itself.注意：此部分试题请在答题卡1上作答；8-10题在答题卡1上。

There have been snowflakes of almost every color. Think how it would seem to have colored snowflakes coming down all around you.Black snow fell in France one year. Another year grey snow fell in Japan. It was found that the snow was mixed with ashes. This made it look dark. Red snow had come down in other countries. When this happened, the snow was mixed with red dust.Most snow looks white, but it is really the color of ice. Snow is ice that comes from snow cloud. Each snowflake begins with a small drop of frozen water. More water forms around this drop. The way the water freezes gives the snowflakes its shape.No two snowflakes are ever just the same size or shape. Sometimes the snowflakes are broken when they come down. Other snowflakes melt as they fall. All snowflakes are flat and have six sides, if they are not broken or melted. When the air is cold and dry, the falling snowflakes are small and hard. If the air wet and warm, the snowflakes are big and soft.Would you be surprised to see snowflakes as big as your head falling from the sky? It happened once in the United States. It could happen again.(1)、The first two paragraphs mainly tell us that sometimes snow has different colors. A A：TB：F(2)、No two snowflakes are just the same size, but all snowflakes are hard. BA：TB：F(3)、Snowflakes begin with cloud. BA：TB：F(4)、The bigger the snowflakes are, the softer they are. AA：TB：F(5)、Black snow fell only in European Countries. BA：TB：F2、Martin Luther King was a black minister, who became a great leader of the civil rights movement in the 1950s and 1960s.King was born on January 15, 1929 in Atlanta, Georgia. When he was young, he was strongly influenced by Thoreau and Indian leader Mahatma Gandhi's idea of non-violent resistance. Having received a Ph. D (Doctor of Philosophy) from Boston University, he became a political and religious leader of the non - violent civil relights movement in 1955. On August 28, 1963, he led over 250,000 Americans on a march in Washington D.C. to fight for the Civil Rights Law to guarantee equality for all people, and delivered his best known speech "I Have a Dream" before the Lincoln Memorial. The "dream" is a dream of brotherly love and equality for the Black and White. Thus, he was awarded the Nobel Prize for peace in 1964, but he was murdered fouryears later.Though he died, he was greatly respected and loved by the Americans, both the white and the black. By vote of Congress in 1968, the third Monday of every January is now a federal holiday in Luther King's honor. He lives in people's hearts forever.(1)、Martin Luther King was murdered when he was __C__years old.A：64B：50C：39D：28(2)、Martin Luther King was a ___D___.A：political leaderB：black ministerC：religious leaderD：all of the above(3)、According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE? BA：Martin Luther King was killed in 1964.B：Martin Luther King's Day has been a federal holiday for more than 40 years.C：Martin Luther King urged his people to get equality and freedom through violence.D：Only black Americans loved Martin Luther King.(4)、The underlined word "delivered" in the second paragraph could be replaced by ___A___. A：gaveB：threwC：announcedD：published(5)、What's the best title for this passage? AA：Martin Luther King.B：How to Award the Nobel Prize.C：Civil Rights Movement.D：Civil Rights Law.3、A characteristic of American culture that has become almost a tradition is to respect the self-made man - the man who has risen to the top through his own efforts, usually beginning by working with his hands. While the leader in business or industry or the college professor occupies a higher social position and commands greater respect in the community than the common laborer or even the skilled factory worker, he may take pains to point out that his father started life in America as a farmer or laborer of some sort.This attitude toward manual (体力的) labor is now still seen in many aspects of American life. One is invited to dinner at a home that is not only comfortably but even luxuriously (豪华地) furnished and in which there is every evidence of the fact that the family has been able to affordforeign travel, expensive hobbies, and college education for the children; yet the hostess probably will cook the dinner herself, will serve it herself and will wash dishes afterward; furthermore, the dinner will not consist merely of something quickly and easily assembled from contents of various cans and a cake or a pie bought at the nearby bakery.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices markedA>, B>, C> and D> . You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage 1Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:Effective munication with people of different cultures is especially challenging. Cultures provide people with ways of thinking—ways of seeing, hearing, and interpreting the world. Thus the same words can mean different things to people from different cultures, even when they speak the "same" language. When the languages are different, and translation has to be used to municate, the potential for misunderstandings increases.Stella Ting-Toomey describes three ways in which culture interferes with effective cross-cultural understanding. First is what she calls "cognitive constrains <认知约束>". These are the frames of reference or world views that provide a background that all new information is pared to or inserted into.Second are "behavior constraints". Each culture has its own rules about proper behavior which affect verbal <用言辞的> and nonverbal munication. Whether one looks the other person in the eye or not; whether one says what one means openly or talks around the issue; how close people stand to each other when they are talking—all of these and many more are rules of politeness which differ from culture to culture.Ting-Toomey's third factor is "emotional constraints". Different cultures regulate the display of emotion differently. Some cultures get very emotional when they are debating an issue. They shout, they cry, they exhibit their anger, fear, and other feelings openly. Other cultures, on the other hand, try to keep their emotions hidden.All of these differences tend to lead to munication problems. If the people involved are not aware of the potential for such problems, they are even more likely to fall victim to them, although it takes more than awareness to overe these problems and municate effectively across cultures.31. What poses challenges for effective munication?A> Cultural differences. B> Language differences.C> Words with different meaning. D> Unsuccessful interpretation and translation.32. The expression "frames of reference" most probably refers to .A> the sum total of old and new informationB>the main ideas and facts that something is based onC>knowledge and beliefs that influence the way one thinksD>some reference materials that one can look up when necessary33. With regard to "behavior constraints", Stella Ting-Toomey means that .A>rules about proper behavior vary from culture to cultureB>people should try to be straightforward when municatingC>eye contact is very important in interpersonal municationD>proper distance should always be kept in mind when municating34. When debating an issue, .A>people get angry easilyB>people tend to get over-excitedC>people may show their feelings differentlyD>people should try to hide their true feelings35. According to the last paragraph, to overe munication problems, people shouldA>show more understanding of other culturesB>learn the strategy of effective municationC>be involved in munication as much as possibleD>be aware of the potential danger of such problemsPassage 2Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:Whenever I find myself banking on future good fortune, I tend to think, "Don't count your chickens before they hatch <孵化>. "Germans express the same idea like this, "You have to catch the hare <野兔> before you can roast him. " The French say: "You can't sell the bear's skin until you've caught him. "Proverbs <谚语> abound in all languages. We use proverbs to make points more convincingly and more memorably than most of us could otherwise manage. We also use proverbs because they lend a measure of authority to our opinions, suggesting that what we are saying is simply mon sense.Yet proverbial wisdom can be contradictory. We warn the cautious against hesitation with "He who hesitates is lost, " but we also warn the bold, "Look before you leap. " We may say that "Absence makes the heart grow fonder, " but we also say, "Out of sight, out of mind. ""Proverbs are not universal truths, " says Wolfgang Mieder, professor of German at the University of Vermont. "Proverbs represent life; therefore, there will be contradictory proverbs. "I admit, however, to having once spent several unfortable minutes in Japan after having e out with "The child of a frog is a frog, " the Japanese version of "The apple doesn't fall far from the tree"—only to be met with blank, unprehending stares. It seems that the Japanese word for "frog" sounds much like the Japanese verb "to return". My hosts must have thought that I was saying something like The Return of Frog-Boy.When people at the table finally grasped what I was trying to say, they burst into laughter. It gave me a perfect opening for "Fall down seven times, get up eight. " That's the Japaneseversion of "If at first you don't succeed . . . try, try again. "36. What does the phrase "bank on" <Para. 1> probably mean?A> To invest. B>To look for. C> To depend on. D>To work hard.37. According to the passage, which of the following is a reason why people use proverbs?A> Proverbs are easy to memorize. B>Proverbs are about popular wisdom.C> Proverbs can be found in all languages. D>Proverbs make conversations interesting.38. The two pairs of proverbs in Para. 4 are used to illustrate that .A> proverbs should be used cautiously B>proverbs can express opposite ideasC> proverbs can sometimes be misleading D>proverbs are created by ordinary people39. Why did the author's attempt at using a proverb fail?A>Because he misunderstood the proverb.B>Because his Japanese friends lacked humor.C>Because he mispronounced a Japanese word.D>Because his Japanese friends didn't like proverbs.40. What does the proverb "The apple doesn't fall far from the tree" <Para. 6> mean?A>Never give up in the face of difficulty.B>Never assume that you're going to be lucky.C>When you miss someone, you love him or her more.D>A child often grows up to be very similar to his or her parents.Passage 3Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:The term "culture shock" was originally coined to explain the intense experiences of people who found themselves on overseas assignments in roles such as diplomats <外交官>, international students, technicalassistance advisors, or businesspeople. Over the last thirty years, the term has expanded to include other types of experiences people have when they move across cultural boundaries within any one country. Occasionally, culture shock is used to explain reactions to the new and the unfamiliar. Examples include going away to college, getting married, or being forced to go on welfare after years of productive employment.The plaints people have when experiencing culture shock are very similar, whether they are international students, overseas businesspeople, or members of an underrepresented ethnic group. Such individuals experience a sense of frustration <沮丧> and helplessness at their inability to meet their everyday needs. They feel lonely and find it hard to meet people and to develop international relationships. Victims of culture shock often bee suspicious of others and e to believe that others are "out to get them". People also report a predictable set of physical symptoms. They plain of stomachaches, inability to sleep, headaches, general feelings of tiredness, mild depression, and a lack of enthusiasm for life.Many organizations now sponsor <赞助> programs to help prepare people for life's transitions <转折>. Most monly called "cross-cultural training programs", one of the goals of such programs is to introduce people to various experiences they are likely to encounter. During the programs, participants are monly told that the experiences associated with "culture shock" are normal and are to be expected. Knowledge of what culture shock is, how frequently it is experienced, and effective coping strategies can aid in reducing people's stress.41. Who were the victims of culture shock when the term was first created?A> The newly-weds. B>College freshmen.C> People who were sent overseas. D>People newly recruited in the military.42. When do people suffer from culture shock?A>When they are forced to leave their original jobs.B>When they have to move from one place to another.C>When they express their plaints about something.D>When they have to deal with something new and unfamiliar.43. Which of the following is true of people suffering from culture shock?A> They don't trust others. B>They can't live by themselves.C> They don't want to meet people. D>They will have mental disorder.44. What is the aim of "cross-cultural training programs"?A> To help people behave normally. B>To reduce people's stress from life.C> To prepare people for culture shock. D>To share experiences of culture shock.45. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A> Culture Shock. B>Cross-cultural Training.C> Experiencing Culture Shock. D>Symptoms of Culture Shock.Section BDirections: In this section, there is a passage with 10 blanks.
