【題目】—If I work hard at all my lessons from now on, will I do better in them?

—Sure. ___________.

A.Practice makes perfectB.You’re never too old to learn

C.Better late than neverD.The early bird catches the worm

【答案】C

【解析】

句意：——如果我從現(xiàn)在開始所有的科目都努力學(xué)習(xí)，我會(huì)在這些科目上更好么？——當(dāng)然，遲做總比不做好。

考查諺語。Practice makes perfect熟能生巧；You’re never too old to learn活到老學(xué)到老；Better late than never遲做總比不做好；The early bird catches the worm早起的鳥兒有蟲吃。根據(jù)“work hard at all my lessons from now on”可知此處表達(dá)從現(xiàn)在開始努力不晚，比不努力要好，用Better late than never。故選C。

【題目】 We’ve all been there: in a lift, in line at the bank or on an airplane, around by people who are, like us, deeply look at their smartphones or, worse, fighting with the uncomfortable silence.

What’s the problem? It’s more likely that none of us start a conversation because it’s challenging, or we think it’s unnecessary. But the next time you find yourself among strangers, consider that small talk is worth the trouble. Experts say it’s an invaluable social practice that results in big advantages.

Small talk is the grease (潤(rùn)滑劑) for social communication, says Bernardo Carducci, director of the Shyness Research Institute at Indiana University Southeast. “Almost every great love story and each big business deal begins with small talk,” he explains. “The key to successful small talk is learning how to connect with others, not just communicate with them.”

In a 2014 study, Elizabeth Dunn, professor of psychology at UBC, invited people on their way into a coffee shop. One group was asked to look for an interaction (互動(dòng)) with its waiter; the other, to speak only when necessary. The results showed that those who chatted with their waiter reported higher positive (積極的) feelings and a better coffee shop experience. “It’s not that talking to the waiter is better than talking to your husband.” says Dunn. “But interactions with peripheral (邊緣的) members of our social network matter for our well-being also.”

Dunn believes that people who reach out to strangers feel a greater sense of belonging (歸屬感), a relationship with others. Carducci believes developing such a sense of belonging starts with small talk. “Small talk is the basis of good manners.” he says.

【1】What’s the main idea of Paragraph 1?

A.Interest in smartphones.B.Unsuitable behaviours in public places.

C.Absence of communication between strangers.D.Impatience with slow service.

【2】What does the coffee-shop study suggest about small talk?

A.It improves family relationships.B.It raises people’s confidence.

C.It matters as much as a formal talk.D.It makes people feel good.

【3】What is the best title for the text?

A.Conversation CountsB.Advantages of Small Talk

C.Uncomfortable SilenceD.Ways of Making Small Talk

【題目】 In England, people buy bus tickets on the bus. In France, they buy them at a bus station. In Australia, they can buy them from a magazine store. Books on cross-cultural communication make us curious by focusing on differences between people across the world: in social behavior and the importance of their body language, etc.

For example, how close you stand to someone when you are speaking to him is different in different cultures. Surveys in most countries tell us that the proper distance（距離）of two people standing in a social situation is between 1. 2 metres and 3.5 metres. But in China, this distance seems to be smaller, while in Sweden, people usually stand farther.

The message sent by the way you stand or sit is another condition. For example, it is quite common in European countries to sit with your legs crossed. But people in Arab countries hardly ever sit in this way—because they might show you the bottom of their shoes, and it is thought to be impolite.

Such information fills the pages of guides for travellers and international business people. Clearly it is important to know a little about eating customs and the rules about basic greetings—whether you should bow or shake someone's hands. But under the surface, we are not so different. There are many signs that are common in the emotions（情感）that they communicate.

Smiling is the best known of these, but not the only one. Scientists have proven that all over the world, people show sadness in a similar way. People look down with their face “falling” and mouth corner turning down. There are also common factors when people are bored. They will look at other things in an distracted（漫不經(jīng)心的） way--their watches, for example. Their feet will begin to move restlessly showing that they want to escape.

Understanding these body languages and acting properly is the real key to cross-cultural communication. If we all pay just a little attention, it is impossible that we will cause lasting inconvenience by using the wrong body language or standing too near to strangers and then make them feel uncomfortable.

【1】Where do people in England buy bus tickets?

【2】What is the proper distance of two people standing in most countries?

【3】Why do people in Arab countries hardly sit with their legs crossed?

【4】How do people around the world show sadness in a similar way?

【5】What is the passage mainly about?
