In western culture, people are not supposed to ask a lady .

A. where she comes from B. whether has she got married

C. how old she is D. how much does she weigh

C 【解析】句意:在西方的文化中,人们不应该问女士的年龄。根据In western culture, people are not supposed to ask a lady .并结合选项,可知此处是一个宾语从句,宾语从句的语序要用陈述语序,所以排除B、D选项;根据文化常识,可知西方人不喜欢被问年龄,因为它属于隐私问题,而A选项则不属于隐私问题,故答案选C。

The meaning of silence varies among cultural groups. Silences may be thoughtful, or they may be empty when a person has nothing to say. A silence in a conversation may also show stubbornness, uneasiness, or worry. Silence perhaps viewed by some cultural groups as quite uncomfortable; therefore tries may be made to fill every gap (间隙) with conversation. Persons in other cultural groups value silence and view it as necessary for understanding a person’s needs.

Many local Americans value silence and feel it is a basic part of communicating among people, just as some traditional Chinese and Thai persons do. Therefore, when a person from one of these cultures is speaking and suddenly stops, what perhaps shows is that the man wants the listener to consider what has been said before continuing. In these cultures, silence is a call for reflection(反应).

Other cultures may use silence in other ways, particularly when dealing with conflicts(冲突) among people or in relationships of people with different amounts of power. For example, Russian, French, and Spanish persons may use silence to show agreement between parties about the topic under discussion. However, Mexicans may use silence when instructions are given by a person in power rather than be rude to that person by arguing with him or her. In still another use, persons in Asian cultures may view silence as a sign of respect, especially to an elder or a person in power.

Nurses and other care-givers need to realize the possible meanings of silence when they come across the personal anxiety(焦虑)their patients may be experiencing. Nurses should learn about their own personal and cultural situation of silence so that a patient’s silence is not stopped too early or allowed to go on unnecessarily. A nurse who understands the curing value of silence can use this understanding to help in the care of patients from their own and from other cultures.

1.Which of the following people might regard silence as a call for careful thought?

A. The Chinese. B. The French. C. The Mexicans. D. The Russians.

2.What does the writer advise nurses to do about silence?

A. Let it continue as the patient pleases. B. Break it while treating patients.

C. Study its harm to patients. D. Make use of its healing effects.

3.What may be the best title for the text?

A. Sound and Silence B. What It Means to Be Silent

C. Silence to Native Americans D. Speech Is Silver; Silence Is Gold

1.A 2.D 3.B 【解析】 文章大意:本文是一篇科教类阅读,文中主要讲的是沉默在不同的文化中所代表的含义。 1.细节理解题。根据文中的句子just as some traditional Chinese and Thai persons do. Therefore, when a person from one of these cultures is spea...

big success Stephen Hawking is! He’s one of the best-known scientists on space and time in the world.

A. How B. What C. How a D. What a

D 【解析】句意:——史蒂芬.霍金是多么大的成功啊!——他是世界上最著名的空间和时间科学家之一。考查感叹句。根据big success可知,感叹句修饰的中心词是名词,根据感叹句的句式:What+a/an+形容词+单数可数名词+主语+谓语!可知应用what来引导,success是可数名词单数形式,而big是以辅音音素开头的单词,所以前面的冠词用a,故答案选D。

请认真阅读下面短文,在短文后表格中的空白处填上适当的词。(注意:每空1个词)

How to protect children from unsafe material online has long been discussed in the USA. For some parents, the Internet seems like a jungle, filled with danger for their children. But jungles contain (包括) wonders as well as dangers.

Most kids have started to use search engines. Many of them are great at finding lots of interesting websites, and they can also locate places where you might not want your kids to go. There are search engines designed just for kids. A certain software contains only sites that have been selected as safe. The most popular way to limit access would be to use what is known as a ‘content screener (过滤器)’. But this can’t be wholly reliable (可靠的), and the best thing parents can do is to talk to their kids and let them know what is OK or not OK to see or do on the Internet. Another way is that Mum or Dad is nearby when the child is surfing the Internet.
