8、panese atomic power plant last March could lead to a major re-examination in European countries that are already building such plants or are considering a shift from fossil(化石 )fuels to nuclear energy to fight climate change. With the terrible accident 25 years ago in Chernobyl(切尔诺贝利 )beginning to f
9、ade in European Memories, governments across Europe have grown more open to using more nuclear power. Enthusiasm for nuclear power is particularly strong in Eastern Europe, which wants to move away from dependence on Russian oil and natural gas, and on heavily polluting coal-fired power plants. East
10、ern governments have begun improving existing nuclear plants or are building or planning new ones. But as Japan struggled to deal with her nuclear crises， discussion about the good and the bad of nuclear power became heated. In Germany, nuclear power has been a repeatedly argued and widely felt issu
11、e for decades. Up to 70 percent of Germans oppose nuclear power. Recently about 40,000 people turned out to form a human chain near a nuclear plant to protest government policies on nuclear power. “ The accident in Japan could lead to a major rethink in Europe,“ said Henrik Paulitz of the Internatio
12、nal Doctors for the Prevention of Nuclear War. “ Governments have not been quite open about the safety levels of the nuclear power plants. “ Chancellor(总理 )Angela Merkel heads a center-right unity government that supports the use of nuclear power. Her government recently made a disputed decision to
13、extend the life of the country s 17 nuclear power plants by an average of 12 years. She will now face more pressure to change that policy. She called an emergency meeting with her senior ministers. “ We know how safe our plants are and that we do not face a threat from such a serious earthquake or v
14、iolent tidal wave,“ Mrs. Merkel said after the meeting. “We will learn what we can from the events in Japan. “ 11 According to the passage, which of the following about Europe is TRUE? （ A） It is dependent on Russia for gas and oil. （ B） It has put an end to fossil fuels. （ C） It had a major nuclear

Hold the glance for a second longer, and you have made a different statement. Hold it for 3 sec
19、onds, and the meaning has changed again. For every social situation, there is a permissible time that you can hold a persons gaze without being intimate, rude or aggressive. If you are on an elevator, what gaze-time are you permitted? To answer this question, consider what you typically do. You very
20、 likely give other passengers a quick glance to size them up and to assure them that you mean no threat. Since being close to another person signals the possibility of interaction, you need to emit a signal telling others you want to be left alone. So you cut off eye contact, what sociologist Erving
21、 Goffman calls “a dimming of the lights“. You look down at the floor, at the indicator lights, anywhere but into another passenger s eyes. Should you break the rule against staring at a stranger on an elevator, you will make the other person exceedingly uncomfortable, and you are likely to feel a bi
22、t strange yourself. If you hold eye contact for more than 3 seconds, what are you telling another person? Much depends on the person and situation. For instance, a man and a woman communicate interest in this matter. They typically gaze at each other for about 3 seconds at a time, then drop their ey
23、es down for 3 seconds, before letting their eyes meet again. But if one man gives another man a 3-second-plus stare, he signals “I know you“. “I am interested in you “or “You look peculiar and I am curious about you. “This type of stare often produces hostile feelings. 16 It can be inferred from the
24、 first paragraph that_. （ A） every glance has its significance （ B） staring at a person is an expression of interest （ C） a gaze longer than 3 seconds is unacceptable （ D） a glance conveys more meaning than words 17 If a person wants to be left alone on an elevator, the best thing to do is_. （ A） to
25、 look into another passenger s eyes （ B） to avoid eye contact with other passengers （ C） to signal that he is not a threat to them （ D） to keep a certain distance from other passengers 18 The phrase “a dimming of the lights“ most probably means_. （ A） closing one s eyes （ B） turning off the lights （
26、 C） ceasing to glance at others （ D） reducing gaze-time to the minimum 19 If one is looked at by a stranger for too long, he tends to feel_. （ A） depressed （ B） uneasy （ C） curious （ D） amazed 20 The passage is mainly about_. （ A） the limitation of eye contacts （ B） the exchange of ideas through eye
27、 contacts （ C） proper behavior in different situation （ D） the role of eye contact in interpersonal communication 20 My father was a foreman of a sugar-cane plantation in Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico. My first job was to drive the oxen that plowed the cane fields. I would walk behind an ox, guiding him
28、with a broomstick. For $1 a day, I worked eight hours straight, with no food breaks. It was very tedious work, but it prepared me for life and taught me many lasting lessons. Because the plantation owners were always watching us, I had to be on time every day and work as hard as I could. I ve never
29、been late for any job since. I also learned about being respectful and loyal to the people you work for. More important, I earned my pay. I was only six years old, but I was doing a man s job. Our family needed every dollar we could make because my father never earned more than $18 a week. Our home
30、was a three-room wood shack with dirty floor and no toilet. Nothing made me prouder than bringing home money to help my mother, father, two brothers and three sisters. This gave me self-esteem, one of the most important things a person can have. When I was seven, I got work at a golf course near our
31、 house. My job was to stand down the fairway and spot the balls as they landed so the golfers could find them. Losing a ball meant you were fired, so I never miss one. Some nights I would lie in bed and dream of making thousands of dollars playing golf and being able to buy a bicycle. The more I dre
32、amed, the more I thought. Why not? I made my first golf club out of guava limb and a piece of pipe. Then I hammered an empty tin can into the shape of a ball. And finally I dug two small holes in the ground and hit the ball back and forth. I practiced with the same devotion and intensity I learned w
33、orking in the fieldexcept now I was driving golf balls with club, not oxen with a broomstick. 21 What was the writer s first job? （ A） To stand down the fairway at a golf course. （ B） To spot the balls as they landed so the golfers could find them. （ C） To drive the oxen that plowed the cane fields.
34、 （ D） To watch the sugar-cane plantation. 22 The word “tedious“ in paragraph 2 most probably means_. （ A） hard （ B） boring （ C） interesting （ D） long 23 What did the writer learn about from his first job? （ A） He could work as hard as possible. （ B） He could go to work on time. （ C） He should never
35、fail to go to work. （ D） He should be respectful and loyal to the people he works for. 24 What gave the writer self-esteem? （ A） Having a big family. （ B） Bringing money back home to help the family. （ C） Helping his father with the work. （ D） All of the above. 25 What was the writer s dream while w
36、orking at a golf course? （ A） Making a lot of money by playing golf. （ B） Becoming a successful golfer. （ C） Running a golf course near his house. （ D） Both A & B 25 There is a measurable relation between how much a person learns and his attitude toward the subject to be learned. When faced with a d
37、ifficult learning task, one path to success is to concentrate on the positive aspects of the subject matter. If a student has a boring teacher, one solution is to look for the positive aspects of completing the course, regardless of how boring the teacher happens to be. To accomplish this might requ
38、ire a private tutor or some independent reading, but with the right attitude, success is possible. Over-achieversstudents who do better than their test scores showusually have a positive interest toward learning. They may learn some things more slowly, and they may make more efforts, but, to compens
39、ate(补偿 ), they are often better at applying what they have learned. As long as they do not have emotional problems, they are successful. Under-achieversthose who function below their ability shown by test scoresoften tend to allow a few negative factors to affect them. Because of their negative atti
40、tudes, they sometimes become unfairly critical of teachers. They allow themselves to get bored when it is not necessary. In short, their attitudes often cause them to learn less than over-achievers. If you learn to replace a negative attitude toward learning with something more positive, you are on
41、the road to achieving almost any goal you desire. For example, if you realize a personal computer with a word processor would improve your performance, but have an attitude that keeps telling you that a computer is difficult to operate, you tend to make all kinds of excuses. In short, you resist mak
42、ing full use of a terrific tool, simply because your negative attitude prevents you from learning. 26 What does the author think a student should do if he has a boring teacher? （ A） Look for a new course. （ B） Be critical of the teacher. （ C） Complete the course with a good score. （ D） Have a right
43、attitude toward the teacher. 27 The writer thinks that over-achievers and under-achievers mainly differ in_. （ A） their test scores （ B） their judgment of others （ C） their attitudes toward learning （ D） their skills in using computers 28 The underlined phrase “function below their ability shown by
44、test scores“ means the under-achievers _. （ A） often get low scores in tests （ B） do worse in actual learning than in tests （ C） usually do better in tests than the over-achievers （ D） are always slow in learning and have to make more efforts 29 The example of the personal computer shows that_. （ A）
