16、 to understand “the point“. Americans mention it often: “Lets get right to the point, “ they will say. “My point is“ “What is the point of all this?“The “ point“ is the idea of the piece of information that Americans suppose is, or should be, at the center of peoples thinking, writings, and spoken c
17、omments. Speakers and writers are supposed to “ make their points clear“ , meaning that they are supposed to say or write clearly the idea of the piece of information they wish to express.People from many other cultures have different ideas about the point. Africans traditionally tell stories that e
18、xpress the thoughts they have in mind, rather than stating the point clearly. Japanese traditionally speak indirectly, leaving the listener to figure out what the point is. Thus , while an American might say to a friend, “I dont think that coat goes very well with the rest of your outfit, “ a Japane
19、se might say, “Maybe this other coat would look even better than the one you have on. “Americans value a person who “ gets right to the point. “ Japanese are likely to consider such a person insensitive if not rude.The Chinese and Japanese languages are characterized by vagueness(模糊)and ambiguity(歧义
20、 ). The precision and directness Americans associate with “the point“ cannot be achieved, at least not with any grace, in Chinese and Japanese. Speakers of those languages thus have to learn a new way of reasoning and expressing their ideas if they are going to communicate satisfactorily with Americ
21、ans.36 According to the passage, Americans expect speakers and writers to_.（A）be clear about their main ideas（B） give as much information as possible（C） express their personal views（D）be honest about their true feelings37 Which of the following peoples will tell a story to express what they have in
22、mind?（A）Americans.（B） Africans.（C） Japanese.（D）Chinese.38 In the sentence “I dont think that coat goes very well with the rest of your outfit“, the word “ outfit“ most probably means_.（A）office（B） time（C） speech（D）clothes39 According to the passage, the Japanese may consider it unacceptable to be_.（
23、A）indirect（B） straightforward（C） poorly - dressed（D）curious40 In order to communicate with Americans satisfactorily, speakers of Chinese need to_.（A）learn the language well（B） change their way of thinking（C） be careful about their choice of words（D）explain their reasons clearly40 Many young people t
24、ell me they want to be writers. I always encourage such people, but I also explain that theres big difference between “being a writer“ and writing. In most cases these young people are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hours lonely at a typewriter. “ Youve got to want to write, “ I say to th
25、em, “ not want to be a writer. “The reality is that writing is lonely, private and poor - paying. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never realized. When I left a 20 - year career in the U.S. Army to become a freelance writer(自由撰稿者), I had no expectation at
26、all. What I did have was a friend who found me my room in a New York apartment building. It didnt even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom. I immediately bought a used typewriter and felt like a true writer.After a year or so, however, I still hadnt gotten any breakthrough and began to doubt
27、 myself. It was so hard to sell a story that I barely made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write. I had dreamed about it for years. I wasnt going to be one of those people who gave up halfway. I would keep putting my dream to the test-even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of fa
28、ilure.This is the shadow - land of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.41 The passage means to_.（A）warn young people of the hardships that a writer has to experience（B） advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professional writer（C） show young people its unrealistic
29、 for a writer to pursue wealth and fame（D）encourage young people to pursue a writing career42 What can be concluded from the passage?（A）Genuine writers often find their work interesting and rewarding.（B） A writers success depends on luck rather than on effort.（C） Famous writers usually live in pover
30、ty and isolation.（D）The chances for a writer to become successful are small.43 Why did the author begin to doubt himself after the first year of his writing career?（A）He wasnt able to produce a single book.（B） He wasnt able to have a rest for a whole year.（C） He found his dream would never come true
31、.（D）He hadnt seen a change for the better.44 When the author began writing, he only had_.（A）a second - hand typewriter（B） a friend who helped him find a room to live（C） a cold room without a bathroom（D）empty expectations of his future45 “shadow -land“ in the last sentence refers to_.（A）the piece of
32、land one often dreams about（B） the state of uncertainty before ones final goal is reached（C） the bright future that one is looking forward to（D）a world that exists only in ones imagination45 My friend Mike was shaking his head in disbelief. “ That young woman who just waited on me, “ he said, pointi
33、ng to an employee of the fast food restaurant where we were eating, “ had to call someone over to help her count the change. The cash register(出纳机 )showed her I need 99 cents, but she couldnt figure out how to count out the coins. “ I understood Mikes concern. What we have done in this country, alth
34、ough unintentionally, is to create several generations of individuals most of whom have no idea how to reason, how to do simple math, how to do research, or finally how to be creative. The reason for this is our overuse of information technology: video games, television, digital watches, calculators
35、, and computers. Information technology feeds us information without requiring us to think about it and let us perform operations without understanding them.It is time for us to take a hard look at an educational system that only teaches our children how to push buttons. Our kids cant tell time if t
36、he clock has hands. They can use calculators, but cannot add, subtract, divide or multiply. Video games have taken the place of active, imaginative play. Although most of them are technically literate, they choose not to read. They are so used to television and movies that they cannot use their imag
37、ination to stay interested in a book.It is not enough to recognize the problem. What we need is solution. The one I offer is simple to suggest, but may be impossible to carry out. We must unplug our children. If we dont, they will never learn how to solve problems. They will never learn basic reason
38、ing skills and will certainly not develop creativity. Instead of filling classrooms with electronics, lets concentrate on good old - fashioned literacyreading books. Students must be taught not only to perform computer operations, but to figure and reason for themselves. They must see how things wor
39、k and how process leads to results, they must also stretch their imagination.46 What seems to be the problem of the employee of the fast food restaurant?（A）She does not know how to count coins.（B） She is unable to solve simple math problems.（C） She has no small change for the customers.（D）She does n
40、ot know how to operate cash registers.47 What is the authors and his friend Mikes concern?（A）The educational system is now creating people who cant think for themselves.（B） People now rarely do things on their own.（C） Computers feed us too much information nowadays.（D）The restaurant does not provide
41、 good service.48 For children to have imaginative minds, they must_.（A）be born with talents（B） be taught to read the right books（C） be dragged away from machines（D）have a large vocabulary49 What is the most probable meaning of “unplug our children“ in the last paragraph?（A）Give them freedom of enjoy
42、ing themselves.（B） Teach them how to learn reasoning from video games.（C） Get them off TV and computer games.（D）Turn off all the power in the schools.50 The conclusion of the article is that the author believes_.（A）electronics should have no place in classrooms（B） information technology helps us to
43、do things we do not understand（C） all books benefit children more than anything else（D）information technology is now being overused50 All of us communicate with one another nonverbally(不使用语言地), as well as with words. Most of the time were not aware that we are doing it. We gesture with elbows or a h
44、and, meet someone elses eyes and look away, change positions in a chair. These actions we assume are occasional. However in recent years researchers have discovered that there is a system to them almost as consistent and understandable as language.One important kind of body language is eye behavior.
45、 Americans are careful about how and when they meet one anothers eyes. In our normal conversation, each eye contact lasts only about a second before one or both of us look away. When two Americans look searchingly into each others eyes, they become more intimate. Therefore, we carefully avoid this,
46、except in suitable situations.Researchers who are engaged in the study of communication through body movement are not prepared to spell out a precise vocabulary of gestures. When an American rubs his nose, it may mean he is disagreeing with someone or refusing something. But there are other possible
47、 interpretations(解释), too. Another example: when a student in conversation with a professor holds the older mans eyes a little longer than is usual, it can be a sign of respect: it can be a challenge to the professors authority: it can be something else entirely. The researchers look for patterns in
48、 the situation, not for a separate meaningful gesture.Communications between human beings would be just dull if it were all done with words.51 The main idea of this article is that_.（A）study of communication through body movement is a new science（B） body movements are as important as words in commun
49、ication（C） all of us communicate with one another（D）eye behavior is the most important part in body language52 What do researchers think of body language?（A）Body language can be understood and used by people in communication.（B） Body language is more important than spoken language in communication.（C） Body language has bee
