People around the world listen to it, play it, and appreciate it.However, world music is a subject that receives little attention in the West. Unfortunately, it's common forpeople in the United States and Great Britain to be completely unfamiliar with the many styles of music found in countries around the world. One of the most different, yet nonetheless beautiful, styles of music is found in Mongolia.Traditional Mongolian music uses a range of instruments, many of which are unique variations of instruments familiar to other cultures, such as the horse head fiddle, lute, trumpet, flute, zither, and drums. The most unique and well-known components of traditional Mongolian music, however, are the solo singing styles known as khuumii and urtiin duu.Khuumii, or throat singing, is performed without instrumental accompaniment, comes from deep in the throat, and produces the effect of two distinct notes at the same time. Khuumii developed in western Mongolia and the present-day Russian Republic of Tuva. The open expanse of the landscape in these regions was favorable for this type of singing, which allowed voices to travel long distances with minimal effort. Today, throat singing has becomeinternationally known. However, many of the actsrecording music and traveling the world are fromRussia. Though many Mongolians still enjoy listening to and singing traditional music, young people (like those in many countries) tend to prefer modern popmusic.Urtiin duu dates back to the 13th century, when the style was practised as a professional art. Urtiin duu relates intricate stories about the naturalbeauty of the land and the rituals of daily life. The vocal style is similar to khuumii in that it takes a talented, practised singer in order to perform well.The sounds are drawn-out and require extreme control of the singer's breath. Some examples of this style have been recorded to have as many as 20,000 verses, thus earning the name "long songs."41. "Music is almost a universal pastime."

Hollywood has repeatedly presented us with the image of (31)sophisticatedcriminals who haveelaborate plans, extensive connections, and can sweet-talk anyone into doing whatever they want. The truth, however, bears no resemblance (32)whatsoeverto this image.In movies, members of organized crime typically (33)intimidateinnocent businessowners to pay them "protection money"—which is actually a fee the citizens need to pay for protection from the very people they're paying. They are also known to "knock off," or kill, potential (34)competitorsso that they remain the only "show" in town. The truth of these portrayals is(35)doubtful. Sure, some of these things happen, but they happen much less often thanmovies and television would lead us to believe.There is no doubt, however, that among members of organized crime, there is a considerableamount of (36)corruption. Money is their primary objective, and they are usually willing todo anything to get it.

Don't misunderstand, theystill demand complete (40)loyaltyfrom "family" members, they still conduct illegaloperations, and they are still criminals, but they have gotten much better at appearing clean and staying out of jail.

He told me that next week is Deaf Awareness Week and that we would be discussing it in class. He's already planned several activities and lectures, but, for obvious reasons, he also wanted me to make a class presentation.I stared at him in disbelief. How could I possibly make a presentation to the entire class? I was petrified.I didn't want to do it, and I told him so. He was determined, though. He really thought it would be a good opportunity for me to share my "culture" (his word) with my classmates. That got me thinking. Do I have a unique culture? I've never thought about it like that before.I went straight to the library to do some research. What makes different cultures recognizable and distinct? I know that language is what distinguishes so many cultures. I may be deaf but I still understand English. Yet, I do utilize a form of English that not everyone can understand—American Sign Language, or ASL. Once I realized that, I immediately looked for books about ASL so I could learn more.Soon after Thomas Gallaudet graduated from Yale University, he was commissioned to help teach Alice Cogswell, the deaf daughter of a wealthy local doctor. Gallaudet travelled to Europe, where deaf education had been in existence for a long time, to study communication among deaf people. He met Laurent Clerc in Paris, recruited him to help develop deaf education in the United States, and, in 1817, the two founded the American School for the Deaf in Hartford, Connecticut.Laurent Clerc began teaching American students the form of French Sign Language with which he was familiar. However, many of the students at the new school were already using their own unique form of sign language that had independently developed in their communities. Over time, and with extensive use, the various forms eventually evolved into what we now know as American Sign Language.Sign language is almost exclusively based on easily decipherable hand motions that represent spoken words. Since deaf people rely heavily on their sense of sight, this method of communication is logical. Body language is extremely important in ASL, and subtle movements of the eyebrows, mouth, or fingers often indicate connotations that are typically represented by tone of voice in spoken language.Interestingly, there is still no universal form of sign language that is readily understood by deaf people around the world. Indeed, though people in the United States and Great Britain speak English, American Sign Language and British Sign Language are distinctly different and "speakers" of each form would not be able to easily communicate with one another. You know what? I'm not so scared to make this presentation to my class next week. In fact, I'm actually looking forward to it. Maybe I'll even inspire some of my classmates to learn ASL! That would be great. I guess Mr Jenkins was right. I do have a special culture to share. American Sign Language is like a different language, and understanding that language is essential to understanding me and my culture.41. The writer of this passage is unable to _____.A. seeB. hearC. smellD. walk42. Even though this passage is in the form of a diary entry, the material is _____.A. entertainingB. persuasiveC. informativeD. fictitious43. According to the passage, which of the following is a true statement?A. There is a universal form of sign language used by deaf people around the world.B. American Sign Language is a form of French Sign Language.C. Laurent Clerc introduced the first form of sign language to the United States.D. Every country has its own unique form of sign language.44. Which of the following events occurred in 1817?A. Thomas Gallaudet graduated form Yale University.B. Thomas Gallaudet met Laurent Clerc in Paris.C. Thomas Gallaudet and Laurent Clerc founded the American School for the Deaf.D. Laurent Clerc developed American Sign Language.45. According to the writer, all of the following are important to sign language EXCEPT_____.A. the ability to readB. hand motionsC. sense of sightD. body language。

I usually kept to myself, had only a few friends, and rarely spoke in class. My parents were always very busy, so they never pushed me to become more involved in activities and meet more people. I was perfectly happy by myself. I spent much of my time with my nose buried in a book. The only times that I ventured away from the comforts of my bedroom were when I explored the seeminglyendless aisles of stocked bookshelves at my favourite bookstore.In retrospect, it was no surprise that I read with such an incredible appetite. Reading was my escape. My favourite books were adventure and travel stories—stories that brought the readers to exotic, unexplored, or dangerous places. These were places I longed to go, and they were adventures I yearned to experience, but I knew it was all just a fantasy. I had a hard time working up the nerve to talk to a fellow classmate, I knew there was no way I could travel around the world and live out one of these adventures. Therefore, I read. I read every book I could find that promised adventure, excitement, or escape. By the time I graduated from high school, I had probably read more books than our school had in its library. It was quite an achievement, but no one knew about it except for me. I told no one because I had no one to tell. My only friend was Justin, and that relationship only existed because we had been next-door neighbours for fifteen years.Like most of my classmates, I applied to college and eventually worked up the courage to go. It wasn't easy. I had lived at home with my parents my whole life, and I rarely ever thought about leaving. However, it had finally become inevitable; I couldn't stay with them forever. I attended a local college and moved out to live in a dormitory with a roommate. It would be an understatement to say that I was nerv ous. I was terrified.My roommate's name was Greg, and the first few weeks of school were very awkward. He kept trying to start conversations and be friendly. I was able to answer his questions, of course, but I found it difficult to keep the conversation going. I just wasn't used to it—I had no practice at this sort of thing. Then one day I returned from an afternoon class and found him reading a Jack London book. Suddenly, I found that I had a hundred questions to ask Greg. Did he like Jack London? Which was his favourite book? Did he read a lot? What other authors did he like? The list was endless.To my surprise, Greg was also in love with adventure and travel books. One of his dreams was to travel around the world and follow in the footsteps of some of history's greatest explorers. There must have been magic at work that day. It was as if my shyness suddenly disappeared. Greg and I talked for hours about our favourite books and dreams of travel. I also found it easier to talk to other people at school and make friendssince that day. I felt like the world opened up to me. So many things suddenly seemed possible. In fact, Greg and I are planning a great adventure for this summer! It may have taken me a while, but I finally found a way to break out of my shell and start enjoying life.41. Which of the following is a rite of passage that helped the writer to become less shy?A. Attending high school.B. Reading many books.C. Attending college.D. Planning a great adventure.42. In which paragraph does the author compare his desire to read to hunger?A. Paragraph 1.B. Paragraph 2.C. Paragraph 4.D. Paragraph 5.43. Which of the following would make the best title for this passage?A. A Painfully Shy ChildB. My College LifeC. Travels with GregD. Breaking Out of My Shell44. "It would be an understatement to say that I was nervous. I was terrified." What does the writer mean by this statement?A. He wasn't nervous at all.B. He was mildly nervous.C. He was as nervous as usual.D. He was extraordinarily nervous.45. Which of the following statements can you infer from the passage?A. Jack London wrote exciting stories.B.

Theycause people to lose their homes, theirpossessions, or even their lives. In a word, theycan be downright (32)tragic. However, aftersuch disasters strike is often a time ofunbelievable (33)bravery and courage.Earthquakes and hurricanes may cause the worstthings to happen, but they also bring out the bestin people.In 2005, one of the worst hurricanes in recent memoryformed over the Gulf of Mexico and moved over the southeastern United States. Known as Hurricane Katrina, it was devastating for many major cities, especially New Orleans, and the people who lived there. While some people managed to (34)evacuate and find safety outside of the city, many did not. Unfortunately, they were left (35)homelesswhen the floods filled the streets and drowned their houses.It is hard to use too many (36)superlativewords to describe Katrina. It was one of the worst storms in history. It caused the deaths of more than a thousand people. It displaced tens of thousands more. Still, there was an enormous (37)turnout of people who wanted to help. These people certainly deserve our(38)admiration and respect.In the days following the storm, details of whathappened were all over the news. There were hundreds of (39)correspondents from all over the world in New Orleans to cover the story.

Do you yearn to see what the world has to offer? Are you tired of simply hearing about other cultures and want to finally experience some of them? Why simply travel the world, though, when you can actively make a difference?Too many people visit countries to see the famous landmarks, taste the local food, and experience life away from their familiar hometowns. However, you can also give something back to the communities in which you travel. Volunteer vacations are becoming increasingly popular, and many people are discovering that they have much more rewarding and satisfying travel experiences when they volunteer their time and energy to worthwhile causes.Many volunteer vacations are easy to organize and simple to execute. Others are more complicated.There are opportunities for every budget, schedule, and amount of effort you're willing to dedicate. It's really up to you. You can teach a language in Africa. You can help build a school in Southeast Asia or a home for a low-income family close to your home. You can help national park employees conserve endangered plants and animals. You can go hiking and help preserve and maintain trail systems. You can volunteer at an orphanage and help keep children safe. The options are limitless and literally encompass anything you can possibly imagine.We often hear about the heroic deeds that some people do to help others when they are most in need, but why wait until a major disaster to give back? Volunteering your time, skills, knowledge, and energy to meaningful projects in the areas of education, health, sanitation, and construction is just as valuable.Ironically, many countries that are popular vacation destinations are also most in need of aid and assistance. Prominent world citizens such asBill Clinton and Kofi Annan repeatedly extol the virtues of volunteerism and claim that true heroes are those people who give what they can with no expectation of anything in return.Next time you plan a vacation, won't you consider a volunteer vacation? You might make all the difference in the world.41. W here is a likely place that this passage mightappear?A. On a marketing brochure for avolunteer vacation organizer.B. In a newspaper editorial about theneed for emergency volunteers.C. On a travel brochure for a popular vacation destination.D. In a magazine article about volunteerism among prominent world citizens. 42. Which of the following would make the best title for this passage?A. The Benefits of International TravelB.

I will admitthat it's hard to arguewith the facts. Comput ers, automo biles, the Intern et, and increa singl y smalle r handhe ld device s certai nly do make our livesmore conven ient. Everyt hing, it seems, is gettin g faster, lighte r, cheape r, and smalle r. Pretty soon, comput ers will be the size of iPodsand iPodswill be the size of finger nails.Techno logyis making our livesmore conven ient, to be sure. But is it making our livesbetter? How depend ent on theseconven ience s should we become? How depend ent have we alread y become? Instan t commun icati on, videoteleph ones, robots, thousa nds of songsin the palm of your hand—all of thesethings are now availa ble at your localshoppi ng centre. Indeed, what was once consid eredscienc e fictio n now seemsdownri ght plausi ble. I can realis tical ly envisi on a worldwherelitera lly everyt hingwe do depend s on a comput er or a machin e and, frankl y, it scares me.Consid er the follow ing scenar io. Michae l begins his day by waking up to an electr ic alarmclock. He gets dresse d and pourshimsel f a cup of coffee from a machin e that is set to brew automa tical ly everymornin g. He walksto the corner and boards a subway trainfor his commut e to work. The trainis contro lledby a comput er that knowshow fast to go and when to slow down and stop. Michae l enters his office buildi ng throug h doorsthat "see" he is coming and open for him. At work, Michae l sits in frontof a comput er all day to do his job. He writes e-mails, update s a Websit e, attend s a videoconfer enceonline, and makesteleph one calls. At night, he relaxe s in frontof the televi sion(whichhas record ed all of his favour ite shows), or he readsan e-book on his smartphone. How much of Michae l's day is not depend ent on comput ers or machin es? How much of this scenar io is unbeli evabl e? The answer: none of it. It is a dailyrealit y for many people.Look around you. Do you use a comput er to send e-mails, writereport s, do homewo rk, or search the Intern et? What happen s when that comput er gets a virusor breaks down? Most people just sit there, baffle d. They simply don't know what to do becaus e they don't know how the comput er works. We depend on comput ers to make our liveseasier, and we depend on comput er techni cians to keep our comput ersoperat ional. The same can be said for nearly any techno logy. That's why engine ers, comput er profes siona ls, and techno logyconsul tants make such remark ablesalari es.The more we rely on techno logy, the more we rely on specia lists. The more we rely on specia lists, the less respon sible we feel to actual ly know how to do someth ing. This is a slippe ry slopethat will eventu allylead most people to comple te ignora nce of how things work. It is ironic, then, that the very techno logie s that are curren tly touted as the greate st advanc ement s in humanknowle dge couldultima telyhave the exactopposi te effect.41.

Throughout history andaround the world, men have overpowered women due to their physical qualities.Yet how can we explain the handful of cultures that are actually (34)matriarchal, orbased on the superiority of the mother or wife? No one can (35)presumeto know theprecise reason for why they developed differently, but it is interesting to theorize. One particularly(36)revealingfact is that most of these cultures have a strong agricultural tradition and,hence, a strong female role in society.One of the major tenets of the (37)feminismmovement is that modern womenshould not be restricted by traditional roles and their subservient status in society. Women should notbelieve that their gender automatically (38)disqualifiesthem for the same rights andprivileges that men enjoy."Women have been taught that, for us, the earth is flat, and that if we venture out, we will fall offthe edge." This anonymous (39)quoteperfectly captures the essence of the modernfeminist movement.

Words and ideas convey much more than the basic information we use them for. Our choice of words, examples, context, and grammatical structure all contribute to forming a picture of ourselves and our world view. However, language is not a neutral vehicle in the representation of reality, and the mere existence of non-sexist and feminist terms does not guarantee their usage.Many of the words and ideas we use in everyday speech are overtly coded with sexist or gendered understandings which distract from their true intent. The only way to truly create a neutral language is to eliminate all of the sexist, feminist, gender-encoded terms and replace them with new ones. However, eventhis is not a guarantee that the words will be used in the intended manner or even that the cultural understandings which are attached to the non-neutral terms will be changed. Sexist use of language can not, very feasibly, be changed simply through the replacement of certain words or terms. With the same cultural understanding in place, the new terms will only be appropriated to mean or signify the same thingas the old ones. There is inherent sexism in language.Language and cultural understanding are connected and have a reciprocating relationship. Another implied sexist use of language is the tendency to refer to inanimate objects in English (with no grammatical gender) as gendered. This is seen in references to boats, planes, or cars as feminine. Perhaps the most widely-used example of this is the idea of Mother Nature. Historically, men have treated nature as they treat women—as something to be subdued, exploited, and admired. Our concepts of gender and the relation of those concepts to reality are reflected in our choice of words and referents.Language and our use of it are almost entirely entrenched in our understanding of the world. Therefore, commonly held beliefs about gender and the differences between men and women are reflected in language use. When gender neutral or feminine terms are introduced into a society still dominated by men, their intended neutrality is thwarted in actual usage. Indeed, if man equals human (linguistically and culturally), then man will always be the standard against which woman is measured.41. Which of the following would make the best title for this passage?A. The Neutrality of Language: Why Uninteresting Language is Sometimes BetterB. Language as a Mirror: How Our Words Reflect What We ThinkC. Gendered Language: How English Sets a Perfect ExampleD. The Culture of Language: Why We Think the Way We Do42. After reading this passage, what can you infer about the nature of language?A. The interpretation of language is largely a matter of semantics.B. There is tenuous connection between language and culture.C. Very few words have cultural and sexual connotations.D. Language is the primary vehicle people use to express cultural understanding.43. "Historically, men have treated nature as they treat women—as something to be subdued,exploited, and admired." This statement establishes a _____ to use language in a particular way.A. motiveB. stigmaC. myriadD. standard44. Which paragraph introduces a discussion of the sexist use of language?A. Paragraph 1.B. Paragraph 2.C. Paragraph 3.D. Paragraph 4.45. What is the main idea of this passage?A. Much of the language we use is sexist.B. Language allows us to communicate our thoughts.C. Language and culture are directly related.D. Many inanimate objects are given genders in speech.。
