Living in a foreign culture can be exciting, but it can also be confusing(令人疑惑的). A group of Americans who taught English in other countries recen tly discussed their experiences. They decided that miscommunications were always impossible, even over something as simple as “yes” and “no”.On her first day in Micronesia, an island in the Pacific, Lisa thought people weren’t paying any attention to her. The day was hot. She went into a store and a sked, “Do you have cold drinks?” The woman there didn’t say anything. Lisa repeated the question. Still the woman said nothing. She later learned that the woman had answered her: She had raised her eyebrows（眉毛）, which in Micronesia means “yes”.Jan remembered an experience she had in Bulgaria, a country in Europe. She went to a restaurant that was known for its cabbage. She asked the waiter, “Do you have cabbage today?” He nodded his head. Jan waited, but the cabbage never came. In that country, a nod means “no”.Tom had a similar problem when he arrived in India. After explaining something in class, he asked his students if they understood. They answered with diffe rent nods and shakes of the head. He thought some people had not understood, so he explained again. When he asked again, they did the same thing. He soo n found out that his students did understand. In India, people nod and shake their heads in different ways depending on where they come from.

Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness.Aristotle,a Greek t hinker,said,"Happiness depends on ourselves." In other words,we make our own happiness.

only think about the activity.④Finally,many people find happiness in helping others.Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others.If you want to fee l happier,do good

She then walked to it, when Toto, her pet dog, had already run around under the post and barked.“Good day.” said the Straw Man.“Did you speak?” asked the girl in wonder. “How do you do?”“I’m not feeling well,” said the Straw Man, with a strange smile painted on its face, “for it is very uncomfortable to be put here night and day.”“Can’t you get down?”“No, for this post is in my back. If you please take it away, I shall be greatly thankful.”Dorothy reached up both arms and lifted the Straw Man off the post and took it out of the field. “Thank you very much,” said the Straw Man,“I feel like a new man. Who are you? And where are you going?”“My name is Dorothy,” said the girl, “and I am going to the Emerald City (翡翠城), to ask the Great Oz to send me back to my home.”“And who is Oz?” he asked.“Why, don’t you know?” she returned in surprise.“No, indeed. I don’t know anything. You see, I am just made of straw (稻草), so I have no brains at all,” he answered sadly. “If I go with you, will Oz give me some brains?” he asked.“I can not tell,” she returned, “but you may come with me, if you like. Even if Oz can not give you any brains, you will still not be worse.”“That is true,” said the Straw Man. “I do not want people to call me a fool. The farmers laughed at me when they were making me, saying that if my head stays with just straw instead of with brains, I will know nothing.”“Oh, dear. I understand how you feel. If you come with me, I’ll ask Oz to do all he can for you.”However, Toto did not like this addition to the party at first. He smelled around the Straw Man in an unfriendly way.“Don’t mind Toto.” said Dorothy. “He never attacks a friend.”“Thank you.” he answered with a bigger smile.——Adapted from The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.26.

He had always been interested in farming and decided to do something to make farming even better.As he passed through the countryside on his journeys for his work, he looked out at the fields. Some of them were greener and growing better than others. He was lost in thought. How could a farmer do better? Surely there must be rules that would help them. He thought he could use his knowledge to find out the best ways for farmers and write a book to help them. In doing so, he collected information from farmers who did well, studied it and even did experiments to find the best way.For example, he advised farmers to clear. harmful grass in the ground. They could either let the animals eat the grass or turn earth over so that the grass was covered and would be cleared. Then he gave advice on turning over earth. The first time each year, farmers should dig deeply, but the second time should be less deep. He suggested changing plants in the field every year: rice one year and wheat the next so that they would always get good harvests (丰收). He also gave advice on how to fish, keep a garden and even make wine.He wrote down his advice in a book called “Qi Min Yao Shu”, with 10 p arts, 92 pieces of articles and more than 110,000 words. “Qi Min” refers to the ordinary people, while “Yao Shu” means the important ways for making a living. The name of the book shows the writer’s hope to call for the attention to the farming production and making people live a happy life.For centuries after Jia Sixie died, Qi Min Yao Shu was still used and studied by Chinese farmers and students of farming. Qi Min Yao Shu also had great influence in the other countries. For example, Darwin (1809–1882), the famous Britain scientist, had used some examples to support his famous theory, the Evolution Theory (《进化论》). Some European and American scientists have studied the book and called it “a practical, outstanding and complete farming scientific achievement”.30. Why did Jia Sixie write Qi Min Yao Shu?A．He had collected good advice from experienced farmers.B．He wanted to improve farming and bring better lives for farmers.C．He wanted to spread Chinese ways of farming to other countries.D．He passed through the countryside and was impressed by the beautiful view.31. What advice did Jia Sixie give to help improve farming?A．He suggested doing experiments on how to make wine.B．He thought that the grass should be mixed with the plants.C．He advised farmers to dig less deep in the second time of a year.D．He called for greater attention to studying animals on the farms.32. Why did the writer include the last paragraph?A．To show how useful and famous Qi Min Yao Shu is.B．To give an advertisement for Qi Min Yao Shu .C．To explain why people accept Jia Sixie’s idea.D．To tell why Qi Min Yao Shu becomes so popular.① We use both words and body language to express our thoughts and opinions in our communication with other people. We can learn a lot about what people are thinking by watching their body language. Words are important, but the way people stand, hold their arms, and move their hands can also give us information about their feelings.② Just like spoken language, the meanings of body language differ from culture to culture. The important thing is using body language in a way that is acceptable to the culture you are in. For example, making eye contact—looking into someone’s eyes—in some countries is a way to display interest. In other countries, by contrast, eye contact is not always approved of. For example, in many Middle Eastern countries, men and women are not socially permitted to make eye contact. In Japan, it may demonstrate respect to look down when talking to an older person.③The ge sture for “OK” has different meanings in different cultures. In Japan, someone who sees another person using the gesture might think it means money. However, you should avoid making this gesture in Brazil, as it is not polite. Even the gestures we use for “yes” and “no” differ around the world. In many countries, shaking one’s head means “no”, and nodding means “yes”. By comparison, in Bulgaria and southern Albania, the gestures have an opposite meaning. There are also differences in how we touch each other, how close we stand to someone we are talking to, and how we act when we meet or part. In countries like France and Russia, people may kiss their friends on the face when they meet. Elsewhere, people prefer shaking hands or nodding the head when they meet someone else.④ Some gestures seem to have the same meaning everywhere. Placing your hands together and resting them on the side of your head while closing your eyes means “sleep”. A good way of saying “I am full” is moving your hand in circles over your stomach after a meal.⑤ Besides difference in meanings, different uses of some body language are also worth studying. Perhaps the best example is smiling. It would be a good idea to use smile to help us get through difficult time and find friends in a world of strangers. A smile can break down misunderstandings. We can use a smile to say sorry, to greet someone, to ask for help, or to start a conversation. Experts suggest smiling at yourself in the mirror to make yourself feel happier and stronger. And if we are feeling down or lonely, there is nothing better than seeing the smiling face of a good friend.33. In Bulgaria, if you don’t agree with your local friend, which of the following gesture will you use?A．B．C．D．34. How does the writer develop his idea in paragraph ③?A．By giving instructions on how to use body language.B．By offering suggestions on when to use body language.C．By using examples of body language with different meanings.D．By comparing the difference between words and body language.35. What special can we learn about the body language in Brazil?A．Nodding your head means “No”.B．It is impolite to use the gesture for “OK”.C．People hug each other when meeting their friends.D．Putting hands together on the side of your head means “sleepy”.36. Which picture best shows the structure of the passage?A．B．C．D．TV for Dogs?Yes!Really!DOGTV is the first TV channel made to bring fun videos and music for dogs. It helps reduceYearlyFor all of the DOGTV fans$94.99·Cancel Anytime·7 days FreeOwner: JayChallenge: Separation AnxietyOur pup Benny, has some major separation anxiety problems and DOGTV has been a huge help in our being able to leave him for longer periods of time.We especially love being able to choose from the library and make the DOGTV experience fit his needs at that time.Owner: KellyChallenge: AnxietyOtis is a big fan of DOGTV.

Together, they’ve bred (繁育) seventeen baby pandas since the 1990s.“Giant pandas are not just a national treasure of China,” said Lin Jian, spokesperson for the Chinese Foreign Ministry. “ 43 They’re bridges for friendship.”44 They all live at Zoo Atlanta. That agreement is about to end later this year. In February, China announced that it would send a pair of pandas to the San Diego Zoo. 45 China has selected Yun Chuan and Xin Bao for this special trip.Have you ever heard of Mulan? She is a famous c 46 in an ancient Chinese story. Once upon a time, the king called for the soldiers to fight for a war. Mulan’s father was too old and weak. So, she d 47 to act as a male soldier to take her father’s place. She cut her hair, wore her father’s old clothes, and joined the army.Though Mulan was a lady, she played a role of a man. In the army, she had to face many d 48 , but she never gave up. Mulan was very brave and she r 49 other soldiers’ spirits with her courage and leadership.
