    　　PITTSBURGH－For most people, snakes seem unpleasant or even threatening．But Howie Choset sees in their delicate movements a way to save lives．

    　　The 37-year-old Carnegie Mellon University professor has spent years developing snake-like robots he hopes will eventually slide through fallen buildings in search of victims trapped after natural disasters or other emergencies．

    　　Dan Kara is president of Robotics Trends, a Northboro, Mass．-based company that publishes an online industry magazine and runs robotics trade shows．He said there are other snake-like robots being developed, mainly at universities, but didn’t know of one that could climb pipes．

    　　The Carnegie Mellon machines are designed to carry cameras and electronic sensors and can be controlled with a joystick(操纵杆)．They move smoothly with the help of small electric motors, or servos, commonly used by hobbyists in model airplanes．

    　　Built from lightweight materials, the robots are about the size of a human arm or smaller．They can sense which way is up, but are only as good as their human operators, Choset added．

    　　Sam Stover, a search term manager with the Federal Emergency Management Agency based in Indiana, said snake-type robots would offer greater mobility than equipment currently available, such as cameras attached to extendable roles．

    　　“It just allows us to do something we’ve ot been able to do before, ” Stover said, “We needed them yesterday．”

    　　He said sniffer dogs are still the best search tool for rescue workers, but that they can only be used effectively when workers have access to damaged building．

    　　Stover, among the rescue workers who handled the aftermath(后果)of Hurricane Katrina, said snake robots would have helped rescuers search flooded houses in that disaster．

    　　Choset said the robots may not be ready for use for another five to ten years, depending on funding．

    　　Successful people in international business understand the cultures of other countries and learn to change their practices in different cultures．They understand the importance of avoiding business decisions based on misconceptions–mistaken ideas．

    　　One cause of misconceptions is ethnocentrism,the belief that one’s own culture’s way of doing things is better than the way of other cultures．It’s ethnocentrism that leads to failure in international business．To avoid ethnocentrism, it’s necessary to study the different elements(组成部分)of culture：language,values and attitudes, and customs and mammers．

    　　Language

    　　A knowledge of the local language can help international business people in four ways．First, people can communicate directly．Second, people are usually more open in their communication with someone who speaks their language．Third, an understanding of the language allows people to infer meanings that are not said directly．Finally, konwing the language helps people to understand the culture better．

    　　Values are people’s basic beliefs about the difference between right and wrong, good and bad．An attitude is a way of thinking or acting．Values and attitudes influence international business．For example, many people in the United States believe that chocolate lrom Switzerland is better than chocolate from other countrics, and they buy a lot of ot．

    　　Customs and manners

    　　Customs are common social practices．Manners are ways of acting that the society believes are polite．For example, in the United States, it is the custom to have salad(色拉)before the main course at dinner, not after．It’s not acceptable to talk with food in mouth at table．Gailure to understand the customs and menners of other countries will bring difficulty selling their products．Orange juice as a breakfast drink of an American company in France doesn’t sell well because the French don’t usually drink juice with breakfast．

    (1)

    A knowledge of the local language allows international business people ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    to be more open with their customers

    B．

    to communicate without outside help

    C．

    to express their thoughts indirectly

    D．

    to have a better idea of their own culture

    (2)

    The act of many people buying chocolate of Switzerland shows the role of ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    manners

    B．

    values

    C．

    attitudes

    D．

    customs

    (3)

    What would be the best title for the text?

    [　　]

    A．

    Misconceptions in Business

    B．

    Basic Beliefs in Business

    C．

    International Business Culture

    D．

    Successful International Business

    When did you last see a polar bear(北极熊）?On a trip to a zoo,perhaps?If you had attended a winter activity in New York a few years ago,you would have seen a whole polar bear club.These "Polar Bears" are people who meet frequently in the winter to swim in freezing cold water.That day,the air temperature was 3℃,and the water temperature was a little higher.The members of the Polar Bear Club at Coney Island,New York are usually about the age of 60.Members must satisfy two requirements.First,they must get along well with everyone else in the group;this is very important because there are so many different kinds of people in the club.Polar Bears must also agree to swim outdoors at least twice a month from November to February.

    　　Dcotors don't agree about the medical effects of cold-winter swimming.Some are worried about the dangers of a condition in which the body's temperature drops so low that finally the heart stops.Other doctors,however,point out that there is more danger of a heart attack during summer swimming because the difference between the air temperature and water temperature is much greater in summer than in winter.

    　　The Polar Bears themselves are satisfied with the benefits of cold-water swimming.They say that their favorite form of exercise is very good for the circulatory system(循环系统）because it forces the blood to move fast to keep the body warm.Cold-water swimmers usually turn bright red after a few minutes in the water.A person who turns blue probably has a very poor circulatory system and should not try cold-water swimming.

    　　The main benefits of cold-water swimming are probably mental.The Polar Bears love to swim all year round;they find it fun and relaxing.As one 70-year-old woman says,"When I go into water,I pour my troubles into the ocean and let them float away."

    72.The members of the Polar Bear Club must meet the following requirements except that_____.[来源:学+科+网]

    　　A.they must swim outdoors at least 8 times in the four cold months

    　　B.they must reach the age of 60

    　　C.they should be easy to make friends with

    　　D.they must agree to swim outdoors from November to February

    73.According to the passage,some doctors believe it is true that_____.

    　　A.Polar Bears are bears swimming in freezing water

    　　B.cold-water swimming can make the body temperature dangerously high

    　　C.you are healthy if cold-water swimming turns your skin color blue

    　　D.cold-water swimming causes more heart attacks in summer than in winter

    74.The Polar Bears like to swim year-round,for_____.

    　　A.it is an easy way ot keep the body warm in winter

    　　B.they can remain young

    　　C.they find it enjoyable and interesting

    　　D.they might meet fewer troubles in life

    75.The passage is mainly about_____.[来源:]

    　　A.the requirements of the Polar Bear Club

    　　B.a group of cold-water-swimming livers

    　　C.the Polar Bears' life in New York

    　　D.doctors' ideas about cold-water swimming
