Part3 Reading and Writing（第三部分读写）

A. Choose the best answer. (12)

Linxi had taken part in a 6-month international student exchange scheme to Britain. When she came back, she wrote an article about the impression of Britain for the school newspaper. The following are parts of her article：

Personal Space

British people like a lot of space around them. They don’t like to make physical contact of any kind with strangers and feel very uncomfortable if anyone stands too close to them. One example of the British ‘keep their distance’ is that people do not often shake hands with one another at all.

Making Polite Request

In making polite requests, British people like to use very indirect language, using the conditional tense and negatives. Amita, an Indian student said: ‘British people never got to the point. They go around this way and that way, using twenty words where three would do. It's really hard to communicate with them.’ (David! British High School Official gave his comment: ‘Some nationalities do not always seem very polite; ‘I want this’ or ‘I want that’, no smiles nor a please nor a thank you.’

Smiling

Some students say that British people smile a lot, compared to many national groups--- often for no particular reason. The British smile as a greeting, smile when asking for something, smile on receiving it.

King, a Korean student once said: ‘The British are so insincere. They smile even when they are not happy or pleased to see you. One girl smiled at me every time we passed each other and I thought she really liked me. So I asked her to come out with me and she refused. She was leading me on and then turned me down.’ Well, she maybe did not realize that she was smiling and probably smiled at everyone. But it is easy to see how this could be misinterpreted by someone in whose culture smiles are only to express genuine warmth.

But still many students comment that they do not find British people in shops, banks, at reception desks smile enough to make them feel welcome.

69. British people need a lot of space around them, so they ________.

A) make physical contact with others    B) stand close to other people

C) don’t often shake hands with others.    D) don’t like strangers

70. To make polite request, British People________.

A) say directly what they need      B) say indirectly what they need

C) use less words than necessary     D) use very polite words

71. According to David, ________.

A) British people are not polite enough    B) British don't like people of other nationalities

C) it is important to use please "and 'thank you'   D) people from other countries always smile

72. King thought British people are not sincere because they________.

A) smile to show refuse       B) smile at people they are not pleased to see

C) smile to show politeness      D) smile at everyone

73. The underlined word "misinterpreted" in this passage probably means ________.

A) understood correctly       B) understood wrongly

C) expressed easily        D) expressed difficultly

74. The best title for Linxi's article may be________.

A) The British in My Eyes      B) Always Be Polite

C) Students From Different Counties    D) Polite British People

B. Choose the words or expressions and complete the passage. (12分)

 What makes people different from computer programs? What is the missing element that our theories don’t yet account for? The answer is simple: People read newspaper stories for a reason: to learn more about what they are interested in. Computers, on the other hand don’t.    75    , computers don’t even have interests; there is nothing in particular that they are trying to find out when they read. If a computer    76    is to be a model of story understanding, it should also read for a “purpose”.

 Of course, people have several goals that do not make    77    to attribute to computers. One might read a restaurant guide in order to satisfy hunger or entertainment goals, or to    78    a good place to go for a business lunch. Computers do not get hungry, and computers do not have business lunches.

 However, these physiological and social goals give rise to several intellectual or cognitive(认知)goals. A goal to satisfy hunger gives rise to goals to find information about the name of a restaurant which     79    the desired type of food, how expensive the restaurant is, the location of the restaurant, etc. These are goals to get information or knowledge, which we are calling     80    goals. These goals can be held by computers too; a computer might “want” to find out the location of a restaurant, and read a guide in order to do so in the same way as a person might. While such a goal would not arise out of hunger in the case of the computer, it might well arise out of the “goal” to learn more about restaurants.

75. A. However   B. In addition  C. In fact  D. Instead of
76. A. program  B. instruction   C. system  D. function
77. A. success   B. sense   C. scene   D. point
78. A. find   B. go   C. look  D. watch
79. A. orders   B. create   C. supports D. serves
80. A. understanding B. learning  C. feeling  D. awareness

C. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words.(14分)

 Number 1 is the simplest number, but has the most complex cultural meaning in Chinese culture. It has the meaning of the beginning, the origin, and the whole w    81    was first suggested by Lao Zi, a well-known philosopher in ancient China in his classic text-TaoTe Ching. Meanwhile, this number was r    82    as “the mother of all creatures” by some other Chinese philosophers in ancient times. Chinese people respect it for its meaning of the first and winner the s    83     as in Western culture. It is easy to find how people love the word from Chinese ancient literature. There are over 260 phrases and more than 420 idioms b    84     with this word in Chinese language system. In Chinese culture, it is n    85     lucky nor unlucky. The combination with some other numbers has positive meanings, such as 1314. I    86     pronunciation in Chinese sounds similar to lifetime or forever, which is widely used between lovers. Sometimes, I sounds similar to the word “You”. The common use of 5211314 in network language means “love you forever” 521 s    87     means “I love you”, which is the most beautiful line to all.

This was helping someone in need, and God knows there were plenty who had given him a hand in the past. He had lived his whole life that way, and it never occurred to him to act any other way.

 He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give the person the assistance he or she needed, and Bryan added, ""And think of me.
