Americans feel that the first rule of being a polite guest is to be on time. If a person is invited to dinner at 6:30, the hostess expects

11、 him to be there at 6 : 30 or not more than a few minutes after. Because she usually does her own cooking, she times the meal so that the coffee and meat will be at their best at the time she asks the guest to come. If he is late, the food will not be so good, and the hostess will be disappointed. W

12、hen the guest cannot come on time, he calls his host or hostess on the telephone, gives the reason, and tells at what time he thinks he can come. As guests continue to arrive, the men in the group stand when a woman enters and remain standing until she has found a chair. A man always rises when he i

13、s being introduced to a woman. A woman does not rise when she is being introduced either to a man or a woman unless the woman is much older. When the guests sit down at a dinner table, it is customary for the men to help the ladies by pushing their chairs under them. Even an American may be confused

14、 by the number of knives, forks, and spoons beside his plate when he sits down to a formal dinner. The rule is simple, however; use them in the order in which they lie, beginning from the outside. Or watch the hostess and do what she does. The small fork on the outside on the left is for salad, whic

15、h is often served with the soup . The spoon on the outside at the right is for soup, and so on. Sometimes there is a separate little knife, called a butter spreader, on a small bread-and-butter plate at the left. As the bread is passed, each guest puts his piece on the bread-and-butter plate. 16 As

16、a country of immigrants, the U.

By moving goods from places where they are plentiful to places wher

20、e they are scarce, transport adds to their value. The more easily goods can be brought over the distance that separates producer and consumer, the better for trade. When there were no railways, no good roads, no canals, and only small sailing ships, trade was on a small scale. 2 The great advances m

21、ade in transport during the last two hundred years were accompanied by a big increase in trade. Bigger and faster ships enabled a trade in meat to develop between Britain and New Zealand, for instance. Quicker transport makes possible mass-production and big business, drawing supplies from, and sell

22、ing goods to, all parts of the globe. Big factories could not exist without transport to carry the large number of workers they need to and from their homes. Big city stores could not have developed unless customers could travel easily from the suburbs and goods delivered to their homes. Big cities

23、could not survive unless food could be brought from a distance. 3 Transport also prevents waste. Much of the fish landed at the ports would be wasted if it could not be taken quickly to inland towns. Transport has given us a much greater variety of foods and goods since we no longer have to live on

24、what is produced locally. Foods which at one time could be obtained only during a part of the year can now be obtained all through the year. Transport has raised the standard of living. 4 By moving fuel, raw materials, and even power, as , for example, through electric cables, transport has led to t

25、he establishment of industries and trade in areas where they would have been impossible before. Districts and countries can concentrate on making things which they can do better and more cheaply than others and can then exchange them with one another. The cheaper and quicker transport becomes, the l

26、onger the distance over which goods can profitably be carried. Countries with poor transport have a lower standard of living. 5 Commerce requires not only the moving of goods and people but also the carrying of messages and information. Means of communication, like telephones, cables and radio, send

27、 information about prices, supplies, and changing conditions in different parts of the world. In this way, advanced communication systems also help to develop trade. A Higher living standard B Importance of transport in trade C Various means of transport D Birth of transport-related industries and t

There are no reliable global estimates for the prevalence of child maltreatment. Data fo

31、r many countries, especially low-and middle-income countries, are lacking. Child maltreatment is complex and difficult to study. Current estimates vary widely depending on the country and the method of research used. Nonetheless, international studies reveal that approximately 20% of women and 5%-10

32、% of men report being Sexually abused as children, while 25%-50% of all children report being physically abused. Additionally, many children are subject to emotional abuse (sometimes referred to as psychological abuse). Every year, there are an estimated 31, 000 homicide deaths in children under 15.

33、 This number underestimates the true extent of the problem, as a significant proportion of deaths due to child maltreatment are incorrectly attributed to falls, burns and drowning. Child maltreatment causes suffering to children and families and can have long-term consequences. Maltreatment causes s

34、tress that is associated with disruption in early brain development. Extreme stress can impair the development of the nervous and immune systems. Consequently, as adults, maltreated children are at increased risk for behavioural, physical and mental health problems. Via the behavioural and mental he

35、alth consequences, maltreatment can contribute to heart disease, cancer, suicide and sexually transmitted infections. Beyond the health consequences of child maltreatment, there is an economic impact, including costs of hospitalization, mental health treatment, child welfare, and longer-term health

36、costs. It is important to emphasize that children are the victims and are never to blame for maltreatment. A number of characteristics of an individual child may increase the likelihood of being maltreated, such as being either under four years old or an adolescent, being unwanted, or failing to ful

37、fil the expectations of parents and having special needs, crying persistently or having abnormal physical features. 31 The difficult situation in the global estimates of the child maltreatment is due to the following factors EXCEPT_according to the passage. （ A） child maltreatment is a global proble

38、m （ B） there is no exact data about low-and mid-income countries （ C） there is a shortage of the professional data collectors （ D） different scientists use different research methods 32 Which of the following statements is true according to the passage? _ （ A） 20% of women got sexually abused in the

39、ir childhood. （ B） 25%-50% of all children were reported to have been physically abused. （ C） 25%-50% of children were psychologically abused. （ D） 60%-75% of children were neglected by their parents. 33 Many homicide deaths in children under are wrongly categorized into the following types EXCEPT_a

40、ccording to the passage. （ A） drowning in swimming （ B） diarrhea （ C） bums （ D） falls 34 Which of the following is NOT mentioned as the bad impact caused by child maltreatment? _ （ A） The child will behave badly in his memory of his childhood when he grows up. （ B） Child maltreatment hurts his nervo

41、us and immune systems. （ C） Child maltreatment damages his early brain development. （ D） The child is easily affected by many diseases in his adulthood. 35 The maltreated children often bear all the following characteristics EXCEPT_according to the passage. （ A） they frequently and easily cry （ B） t

42、hey are in infants or in adolescent period （ C） they are often neglected by their parents or friends （ D） they often try their best to meet the requirements from their parents 35 High Stress May Damage Memory According to a report issued in May 1998, elderly people who have consistently high blood l

43、evels of Cortisol dont score as well on memory tests as their peers with lower levels of the stress hormone. Whats more, high levels of Cortisol are also associated with shrinking of the hippocampus, a region of the brain that plays a key role in learning and memory. The findings suggest that even C

44、ortisol levels in the normal, “healthy“ range can actually accelerate brain aging. The study results “now provide substantial evidence that long-term exposure to adrenal stress hormones may promote hippocampal aging in normal elderly humans“, write Nada Porter and Philip Landfield of the University

45、of Kentucky in Lexington in their editorial. Cortisol is a hormone released in response to stress by the adrenal glands, which sit on top of the kidneys. Over a 5 to 6-year period. Dr. Sonia Lupien and his colleagues measured 24-hour Cortisol levels in 51 healthy volunteers, most of whom were in the

46、ir 70s. Despite wide variation in Cortisol levels, the participants could be divided into three subgroups: those whose Cortisol progressively increased over time and was currently high (increasing/high) ; those whose Cortisol progressively increased over time and was currently moderate (increasing/m

47、oderate); and subjects whose Cortisol decreased, but was currently moderate (decreasing/moderate). The researchers tested the volunteers memory on six people in the increasing/high category and five people in the decreasing/moderate group. The groups did not differ on tests of immediate memory, but

48、the increasing/high Cortisol group had other memory problems compared with those in the decreasing/moderate group. The researchers also found that the total volume of the hippocampus in those in the increasing/high group was 14% lower than those in the decreasing/moderate group, although there were

49、no differences in other brain regions. The results suggest that “. . . brain aging can be accelerated by levels of adrenal hormones that are not generally regarded as pathological and that variation within this normal range is related to variation in the rate of brain aging, “ write Porter and Landfield. “This further suggests that chronic stress may accelerate the worsening of hippocampus. “ 36 The part of the brain important for a persons learning and memory is_. （ A） the Co
