    Flight Distance
    Any observant people have noticed that a wild animal will allow a man or other potential enemy to approach only up to a given distance before it escapes. “Flight distance” is the terms used for this interspecies spacing. As a general rule, there is a positive relationship between the size of an animal and its flight distance --- the larger the animal, the greater the distance it must keep between itself and the enemy. An antelope will escape when the enemy is as much as five hundred yards away. The wall lizard’s flight distance, on the other hand, is about six feet. Flight is the basic means of survival for mobile creatures.
    Critical Distance
    Critical distance apparently is present wherever and whenever there is a flight reaction. “Critical distance” includes the narrow zone separating flight distance from attack distance. A lion in a zoo will flee from an approaching man until it meets a barrier that it cannot overcome. If the man continues the approach, he soon penetrates（穿过，透过）the lion’s critical distance, at which point the cornered lion turns back and begins slowly stalk（逼近）the man.
    Social Distance
    Social animals need to stay in touch with each other. Loss of contact with the group can be fatal （致命的）for a variety of reasons including exposure to enemies. Social distance is not simply the distance at which an animal will lose contact with his group --- that is, the distance at which it can no longer see, hear, or smell the group --- it is rather a psychological distance, one at which the animal apparently begins to feel anxious when it goes beyond its limits. We can think of it as a hidden band that contains the group.
    Social distance varies from species to species. It is quite short --- apparently only a few yards --- among some animals, and quite long among others.
    Social distance is not always rigidly（刻板的）fixed but is determined in part by the situation. When the young of apes and humans are mobile but not yet under control of the mother’s voice, social distance may be the length of her reach. This is readily observed among baboons（狒狒）in a zoo. When the baby approaches a certain point, the mother reaches out to seize the end of its tail and pull it back to her. When added control is needed because of danger, social distance shortens. To show this in man, one has only to watch a family with a number of small children holding hands as they cross a busy street.
    小题1:Which of the following is the most suitable explanation to “Flight distance”?
    A．Distance between animals of the same species before escaping.
    B．Distance between large and small animals before escaping.
    C．Distance between an animal and its enemy before escaping
    D．Distance between certain animal species before escaping.
    小题2:If a lion’s critical distance is penetrated, it will ________
    A．begin to attackB．try to hideC．begin to jumpD．run away
    小题3:The example of the children holding hands when crossing the street in the last paragraph shows that ________.
    A．social distance is not always needed
    B．there is no social distance among children
    C．humans are different from animals in social distance
    D．social distance is sometimes determined by outside factors
    小题4:Which of the following one can be the best title of the passage?
    A．Critical DistanceB．Spacing in Animals
    C．Relationship Between AnimalsD．Psychological Distance

    American is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while—then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.
    Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily.
    Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time.Sometimes , we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine (常规). They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.
    For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!
    小题1:The writer of this passage must be ____.
    A．an AmericanB． a ChineseC．a professorD．a student
    小题2: Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
    A．Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their family.
    B．Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.
    C．Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy.
    D．Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.
    小题3: From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friends, we will probably be ___.
    A．warmly welcomed at the airportB．offered a ride to his home
    C．treated hospitably at his homeD．treated to dinner in a restaurant
    小题4:From the underlined sentence, we can know the Chinese people  ____.
    A．are strict with timeB．don’t take time seriously
    C．don’t know how to use timeD．are willing to spend time for friends
    小题5:A suitable title for this passage would probably be “____”
    A．Friendships between ChineseB．Friendships between Americans
    C．Americans’ hospitalityD．Americans’ and Chinese’s views of friendship

    One of the most famous buildings in the United States is Carnegie Hall, the home of classical and popular music concerts in New York. Carnegie Hall is known not just for its beauty and history, but also for its amazing sound. It has been said that the hall itself is an instrument. It takes the music and makes it larger than life.
    Carnegie Hall is named after Andrew Carnegie, who paid for its construction. He was a wealthy man who also gave a lot of money to schools and public libraries. Construction on Carnegie Hall began in 1890 and the official opening night was on May 5, 1891.
    The hall was owned by the Carnegie family until 1924 when it was sold to Robert E. Simon. The building became very old and in 1960, the new owner made plans to destroy it and build an office block. Isaac Stem led a group of people who fought to save Carnegie Hall and finally, the city of New York bought it for $5 million. It was then fixed up between 1983 and 1995.
    In 1986, people realized that Carnegie Hall had never kept proper records of its history. Advertisements and stories in newspapers about how Carnegie Hall needed help to recover its history led people to send in old concert programmes and information from all over the world. Over 12,000 concert programmes were received and with these it was possible to make a proper record of Carnegie Hall’s concert history.
    Carnegie Hall is actually made up of several different halls, but the Main Hall, now called the Isaac Stern Hall, is the most famous. Most of the greatest performers of classical music since the time the hall was built have performed in the Main Hall, and its reception areas are decorated with signed photographs of these musicians. The hall itself can hold an audience of 2,804 in five levels of seating. Visitors to the top level have to climb up 105 steps to get there!
    Because the best and most famous musicians of all time have played at Carnegie Hall, it is the dream of most musicians who want to be great to play there. This has led to a very old joke which is now part of Carnegie Hall’s history. Question: “How do I get to Carnegie Hall?” Answer: “Practise, practise, practise.”
    小题1:What do music lovers expect in Carnegie Hall?
    A．Musical concerts presented by first class performers.
    B．Exhibits and photographs of historical events.
    C．Musicians practicing for opportunities to play.
    D．People dancing merrily at parties.
    小题2:What is the correct order of the following events?
    a. Robert E. Simon bought it in 1924.
    b. Carnegie Hall got its name.
    c. Carnegie Hall recovered its history.
    d. New York City paid $5,000,000 for it. 
    e. Construction on Carnegie Hall began in 1890.
    A．a; c; b; d; e;B．e; d; c; a; bC．e; b; a; d; cD．a; e; c; d; b
    小题3:How long did it take Carnegie Hall to be fixed up?
    A．9 years.B．10 years.C．11 years.D．12 years.
    小题4: How did Carnegie Hall recover its concert history?
    A．Through newspaper reports.
    B．Through old concert programmes.
    C．Through old photographs.
    D．Through old jokes.
    小题5:Why do you think the Main Hall is now called the Isaac Stern Hall?
    A．Because Isaac Stern is a famous musician.
    B．Because Isaac Stern built the Main Hall.
    C．Because Isaac Stern saved Carnegie Hall.
    D．Because Isaac Stern made up the Carnegie Hall joke.

    When you don’t speak, you may be still communicating. It is true that you may not wish to say anything. But your very silence may show your wish to be left alone or to stay uninvolved, which is the message you want to send.
    So it has been said that while we speak with our vocal organs, we converse with our whole bodies. All of us communicate with one anther nonverbally (非口头地), as well as with words. Sometimes we know what we are doing with the use of gestures such as the thumbs-up sign to indicate that we approve. But most of the time we are not aware that we are doing it.
    Body language serves a variety of purpose. Firstly it can replace verbal communication, as with the use of gesture. Secondly, it can modify (修饰) verbal communication. Loudness and tone of voice is an example here. Thirdly it regulates social interaction: turn taking is largely governed by non-verbal signals. Fourthly it conveys our emotions. Finally it conveys our attitude towards ourselves and towards the people we are communicating with. This is particularly important for successful cross-cultural communications.
    Every culture has its own body language. So in order to achieve a more successful cross-cultural communications, we heed not only what to say but also how to say it appropriately. Observation shows that a truly bilingual person switches his body language at the same time he switches language.
    小题1:The underlined word “converse” in the second paragraph can be replaced by ____.
    A．continueB．complainC．communicateD．compete
    小题2:The underlined word “This” in the third paragraph refers to___.

    B．the fact that body language can modify verbal communication
