17、）中，選出最佳選項，并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。AAs we all know, the language is a very important tool for people to communicate with each other. In most of the languages, people usually begin their conversations by a kind of small talk  a casual form of conversation that “breaks the i

18、ce” or fills an awkward silence between people. That is to say, small talk means the little things we talk about to start a conversation. In English-speaking countries such as Britain, people often make small talk about the weather. “Nice day, isnt it?” “Terrible w

19、eather, isnt it?” However, we still have something special about small talk. It must be about something which both people have the same opinion about. The purpose of small talk is to let both people agree on something. This makes meeting people easier and more comfortable. People usually agree about

20、 the weather, so it is a safe topic for small talk. But people often disagree about religion(宗教) or politics so these are not suitable topics for small talk. The topics for small talk also depend on where the conversation is taking place. At basketball matches, people make small talk about the game

21、they are watching. “Great game, isnt it?” At train stations, people may talk about the transport system. “The train service is terrible, isnt it?”36. According to the passage, small talk is _.

In English-speaking countries we should talk about the weather.B Music is a language which speaks to everyone since the day we were born we have heard musi

25、c of some kind of our lives. But there are many different kinds of music and it is impossible to describe them all. Here are just a few well-known types.Classical music is serious Western European music from the Middle Ages and it is often written for a large orchestra(管弦樂隊), or for a small group of

26、 players. Many instruments can be used. A lot of classical music is also written to be sung in a theater as opera. Classical music is very popular and schools often teach this type of music.Jazz developed in the Southern States of North America at the beginning of this century. The black people of t

27、hese states, who were originally slaves from Africa, had their own rhythms. Jazz brought classical music and African rhythms together.Blues was originally black country music from the Southern States at the beginning of this century. It is slow, usually sad music which is often sung by one person wi

28、th a guitar.Rhythm and Blues (R&B) developed from the Blues in America in the 1940s. It became faster and more complex and used more instruments, eg. saxophone, guitar, piano, drums. The music was often about city life and white musicians started playing it as well.Musicians developed Rock and R

32、n music and their history D. how music developed in America CYesterday I was in Milwaukee visiting my family, and while I was there I stopped at a café on a particular street corner. It was a corner that brought back a specific(特別的) memory. I had been on this street corner long before.It was a

33、very cold night in late January, 1978. I was halfway home that night after working the evening shift (夜班) at the shopping mall, and I had to change buses. I stood at the bus stop waiting for the bus and just shivered（顫抖）. “Gosh, this is terrible,” I thought. “I need to get out of this.”I also though

34、t about my young life at the time and where I was going. I felt very upset, because I was not satisfied with it. There was something asking me to make a change. I had just heard of a scholarship opportunity at a small university in San Antonio, Texas the week before, and it really got me thinking. B

35、ut it was 1,200 miles away from my family and friends. But I sensed (感覺到) that if I stayed where I was, I wouldnt be really happy with myself. I felt like there was something missing. And yes, I was really cold, too. I thought of warm days in January in South Texas. That would be nice.I was at a for

36、k（分叉，岔路口） in the road that night, and little did I know what that decision would mean to me. As the wind rose and my shivering worsened, my mind suddenly cleared and the path became clear I had to leave. I was going to San Antonio. Even though I wouldnt know a person, I decided to take the risk and

37、do it, and start over. The bus finally came and as I finally could feel my face again I looked out of the window of the bus and dreamed about the new horizons that were in front of me. That day, at that moment, at that fork in the road, I made the most important decision of my lifegoing to universit

38、y. And thankfully, it was the right one. What an important fork in the road!46. The writer stayed on that street corner on a very cold night because _. A. he had come out for a walk B. he was waiting for a bus at the nearby bus stop C. he had to work at a café till the morning D. he had to buy

41、d.B. Dont make decisions too quickly.C. Its never easy to make changes.D. Accept your life as it is.DLearning the language of a country isnt enough. If you want to ensure a pleasant visit, find out as much as possible about the manners and customs of your hosts.Sometimes good manners in one place ar

42、e bad manners in other places. If you are a visitor in the land of Mongolia, some friends ask you to eat with them. What kind of manners do they want you to have? They want you to give a loud “burp”(打嗝) after you finish eating. Burping would show that you liked your food. But in some other countries

43、, if you give a loud burp, you are told to say “Excuse me, please.”In many places, people like to eat together. But in some parts of Polynesia it is bad manners to be seen eating together. People show their good manners by turning their backs on others while they eat.You will probably be surprised j

44、ust how different they can be from your own. A visitor to India would do well to remember that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table. The left hand is supposed to be used for washing yourself. Also in India, you might see a man shaking his head at another t

45、o show that he doesnt agree. But in most parts of India, a shake of the head is a gesture that expresses agreement or acceptance. Nodding your head when you are offered a drink in Bulgaria is likely to leave you thirsty. In that country Bulgaria, you shake your head to mean “yes” a nod means “no”.In

46、 Europe it is quite usual to cross your legs when you are sitting talking to someone, even at an important meeting. Doing this when you are meeting an important person in Thailand, however, could cause offence. It is considered too informal an attitude for such an occasion. Also try to avoid touchin

47、g the head of an adult its just not done in Thailand.Attitudes to women vary much around the world. In Japan, for example, it is quite usual for men to plan evening entertainments for themselves and leave their wives at home.Knowing about customs and attitudes is useful when you are traveling, but y

48、ou also need to know the language used to express different degrees of formality(禮節(jié)).51.

In Japan D. In India53

49、. From the passage, we know that shaking head means “yes” in _.A. Thailand B. Mongolia C. Japan D. Bulgaria 54. The underlined sentence “Nodding your head when you are offered a drink in Bulgaria is likely to leave you thirsty.” Means _.A. you are probably not to be served a drink when you nod your

50、headB. youre possibly eager to have a drink if you nod your headC. its probable that you are thirsty if you nod your headD. youd like to have a cup of tea because you nod your head55.

52、University in the United Kingdom have developed the French Digital Kitchen. Professor Paul Seed House and Patrick Olivier led the project. Professor House tells us that it works like a satellite navigation(導(dǎo)航) system in a car, which direct us how to get to your destination.The kitchen equipment and

53、tools use motion sensor(動作傳感器) technology. The sensors help a computer guide the students through instructions in French.This is how the system works. The system can tell whether youve done what you were asked to do or not. For example, the system tells you to take some butter and cut it with a knif

54、e. Theres a sensor on the package containing the butter so it can tell where the butters being moved. The sensor in the knife not only knows that the knife is moving, but it also knows what motion the knife is making. So it can know whether the knife is cutting or not. And it doesnt go on to the next step of the program unless youve done what it sense youve done.Students can ask the computer to repeat the instructions or translate them into English. There are vocabulary lessons before and after the cooking.Professor House says the French Digit
