    根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。     Culture shock might be called an occupational disease of people who have been suddenly transplanted abroad. 1. _________.
      Culture shock is caused by the anxiety that results from losing all our familiar signs and symbols of
social exchange. Those signs or cues include the thousand and one ways in which we adjust ourselves to
the situation of daily life: when to shake hands and what to say when we meet people, when and how to
give tips, how to make purchases, when to accept and when to refuse invitations, when to take statements seriously and when not. These cues, which may be words, gestures, facial expressions, customs, or norms, are acquired by all of us in the course of growing up and are as much a part of our culture as the language we speak or the beliefs we accept. All of us depend for our peace of mind and our efficiency on hundreds of these cues, most of which we do not carry on the level of conscious awareness.
     2. __________. He or she is like a fish out of water. No matter how broad-minded or full of goodwill you may be, a series of supports have been knocked from under you, followed by a feeling of frustration
and anxiety. People react to the frustration in much the same way.
     3. __________. "The ways of host country are bad because they make us feel bad." When foreigners
in a strange land get together to complain about the host country and its people, you can be sure they are
suffering from culture shock.
     Another stage of culture shock is regression (回归). 4. _________. To the foreigner everything back
home becomes irrationally glorified. All the difficulties and problems are forgotten and only the good things back home are remembered. 5. _________.
A. Now when an individual enters a strange culture, all or most of these familiar cues are removed.
B. It usually takes a trip home to bring one back to reality.
C. First they reject the environment which causes the discomfort.
D. The home environment suddenly assumes a tremendous importance.
E. Individuals differ greatly in the degree in which culture shock affects them.
F. Some of the symptoms of culture shock are excessive washing of the hands, excessive
    concern over drinking water, food dishes and bedding.
G. Like most diseases, it has its own symptoms and cure

阅读理解     I travel a lot, and I find out different "styles" (风格) of directions every time 1 ask "How can I get to
the post office?"
     Foreign tourists are often confused (困惑) in Japan because most streets there don"t have names; in
Japan, people use landmarks (地标) in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, "Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market.
The post office is across from the bus stop."
     In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. There are no
mountains, so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. lnstead of
landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, "Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile."
     People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map; they measure distance in time, not miles. "How far away is the post office?" you ask. "Oh," they answer, "it"s about five minutes from here." You say, "Yes, but how many miles away is it?" They don"t know.
     It"s true that a person doesn"t know the answer to your question sometimes. What happens in such a
situation? A New Yorker might say, "Sorry, I have no idea." But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers "I
don"t know." People in Yucatan believe that "I don"t know" is impolite, They usually give an answer,
often a wrong one. A tourist can get very, very lost in Yucatan!

1. When a tourist asks the Japanese the way to a certain place they usually _________
A. describe the place carefully
B. show him a map of the place
C. tell him the names of the streets
D. refer to recognizable(可辨认的) buildings and places

2. What is the place where people measure distance in time?
A. New York.
B. Los Angeles.
C. Kansas.
D. Iowa.

3. People in Yucatan may give a tourist a wrong answer ________
A. in order to save time
B. as a test
C. so as to be polite
D. for fun

4. What can we infer from the text?
A. It"s important for travelers to understand cultural differences.
B. It"s useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properly.
C. People have similar understandings of politeness.
D. New Yorkers are generally friendly to visitors.

阅读理解。     Many people take it for granted that black is a color of bad things while white should always mean
something good. This may be because, in their opinion, black is related to darkness and white to purity.
However, that is not always the case. Did you know that the same one color may mean something
differently in different places of the world?
     In the English-speaking world, black is the color of mourning-people wear black at the funeral. Red is
concerned with danger or bloodshed(伤亡). Yellow is the word for fear. If you are afraid, you are yellow. Yet none of these sayings is true outside the English-speaking world. In China and Korea white is the color of mourning. In Russia, China and some other countries, red stands for beauty, life and excellence. In Italy and Germany, you are yellow with anger, not with fear.
     Even within the English-speaking area, it is not difficult to find color contradictions(矛盾). A redcap in
the United States is a porter in a railway station. In Britain, however, a redcap is a military policeman. Both names are logical, because both men wear red caps. Similarly, the British term for an American
white-collar worker is sometimes called a black-coated worker.
     One does not have to cross an area to find color differences. Would you rather be red-blooded or a
blue-blooded? If we go back to the origin, we find that both terms are logical as both names suggest. The expression "blueblood" comes from Spain, where some noble families proudly told the world that they had "blue blood". Actually they meant that they had no Moorish or Jewish blood. But then why "blue" blood?
Because they were fair-skinned, and it is only natural that their blood vessels (血管) stood out appearing
blue.1. Yellow is concerned with anger in _____.A. India
B. Britain
C. China
D. Italy2. Both Britain and America would probably agree that _____.A. a redcap is a porter in a station
B. black is the color of mourning
C. red stands for beauty and excellence
D. a black-coated worker is employed in an office 3. In Britain , a redcap is a _____.           A. porter
B. nobleman
C. clerk
D. military policeman 4. The best title for this reading selection is _____.A. The Origin of Blue Blood
B. Colors that Carry Bad Meanings
C. The Meaning Concerned with Certain Colors
D. The Development of the Symbolic Use of Colors

阅读理解。     Tattoos and body piercings(穿孔)have moved up on the trend list in recent years. Around Western
schools lots of teens are sporting new holes and "flesh ink"(纹身). As with all other subjects, the Chinese will surely have to deal with this situation with respect to their children. To get a better view of what has
happened in the West, 1et"s sit down and hear what they say.
     Tiara from Indiana:
     I personally think body piercing is sickening. If there were supposed to be holes in your body,you
would have been born with them. I do,however,think that ear piercing is not wrong. There is a difference
between ear piercing and belly button piercing. Ear piercing is not nearly as dangerous. I would be sick if
someone stuck a needle in my belly button.
     Lee from Illinois:
     Hi! I live in Illinois. I am 23. I have 12 tattoos and three piercings. I love my tattoos and consider
myself an art collector. You would be surprised at who has given me the thumbs up on my art work.
People on the street stop me to look at the tattoo on my leg. Most of them don"t know what it is. They
just think the work itself is great.
     Subotai from California:
     I"m not prohibitive(禁止)of self-expression,but when I see high school students getting these piercings,
I really wonder. In some cases, the drive is deeper and darker than mere fashion. A friend of mine tried
piercing her own tongue with a safety pin. It got infected and she had a tongue the size of a cow"s.
     Jackson from Ohio:
     I don"t think it is wrong, but when people do it all over the place like their face and everything-I think
that"s ridiculous. People who get the big "dragons that cover the whole body-I don"t think that"s necessary." When I see naked chicks on guys, I think, "You have no respect for women." 1. According to the passage, we can infer that         .A. Tiara might have body piercings

B. all the teachers in the West are in favour of tattoos and piercings

阅读理解。   Here is some general information about Edison Elementary School. For more information, you
can visit our website which is printed on the cover.
     Attendance:
Please contact the office at 480. 472. 5282 if your child is going to be absent.
     Renaissance Reading:
The Accelerated Reader (AR) Program is a computerized reading enrichment program that combines
great children"s literature with computer skills. As an individualized reading program, it is designed to
motivate students to read more and to read good literature. Students of different abilities can use this
program. It is not a competitive program but one that improves any student"s reading ability.
     Here is how it works. Students select books in their reading range from our Accelerated Reader
Selection and read it at their own pace. Once the student has completed the book, he/she is ready to
take an AR quiz. Each quiz consists of 5, 10, or 20 multiple choice comprehensive questions about
the book.
     After taking the quiz, the computer shows the student how many questions he/she answered
correctly, shows the correct answers for missed questions, and praises the students" efforts with an
onscreen personalized message. Passing the quiz assures the teacher and the parent that the child
actually read and understood the book.  Each student tests independently-reading the quiz questions
himself/herself.
     The computer keeps track of reading points, books, and average test scores, as well as other
data. A student may test on a book only once and should, therefore, have thoroughly read and
understood the contents before taking the quiz. Each student is responsible for reading the screen
to be sure the quiz, by title and author, is the correct one he/she wishes to take.
     Students are recognized for their accomplishments with praise from the teachers and special
recognition at the classroom level when individual and/or classroom goals are met.
