17、s an economical, comfortable and fascinating way to vacation far from home. You arrange to occupy someones home at your destination (目的地) while he or she stays at yours. There are several types of home exchanges. In a traditional exchange, you and your partner travel at the same time and stay in eac
18、h others original primary (主要的) home. However, another type of exchange has turned up for people who own more than one home. In “non-simultaneous exchanges”, home swapping partners dont need to travel at the same time. Instead, exchange partners come to stay in a vacation home or secondary home whil
19、e the owner continues to live in his or her own primary home. Then the owner can travel to another home exchange house whenever its convenient. Another type of exchange, known as a hospitality (款待) exchange, involves you and your trading partner taking turns staying as guests in each others primary
20、homes.Some folks love to swap because it allows them to experience new places without paying for hotels, restaurants or, in many cases, transportation (the use of the family car is included in many home exchanges). Home exchanges are also a great way to get mixed into the life of a local community.
21、But some travelers are turned off by having to cook and clean on their vacation, while others feel uncomfortable about having strangers living in their own homes. In that case, a vacation rental (租房) might be a better choice. Most home exchange organizations charge a monthly or yearly membership fee

24、me D. not traveling all the time30. Some people dont like to swap because _. A. they only enjoy cooking in their own homes B. they hate to meet people in the local community C. they cant use their exchange partners cars freely D. they feel uneasy about strangers living in their houses31. What does t
25、he passage mainly talk about? A. An explanation why people like swapping homes. B. An introduction to home exchange traveling. C. Dos and donts when staying at others homes. D. Some advice on home exchange traveling. DMany people think that listening is a passive business. It is just the opposite. L
26、istening well is an active exercise of our attention and hard work. It is because they do not realize this, or because they are not willing to do the work, that most people do not listen well. Listening well also requires total concentration upon someone else. An essential part of listening well is
27、the rule known as bracketing. Bracketing includes the temporary (暂时的) giving up or setting aside of your own prejudices (偏见) and desires, to experience as far as possible someone elses world from the inside, stepping into his or her shoes. Moreover, since listening well involves bracketing, it also
28、involves a temporary acceptance of the other person. Sensing this acceptance, the speaker will seem quite willing to open up the inner part of his or her mind to the listener. True communication is under way and the energy required for listening well is so great that it can be accomplished only by t
29、he will to extend oneself for mutual growth.Most of the time we lack this energy. Even though we may feel in our business dealings or social relationships that we are listening well, what we are usually doing is listening selectively. Often we have a prepared list in mind and wonder, as we listen, h
30、ow we can achieve certain desired results to get the conversation over as quickly as possible or redirected in ways more satisfactory to us. Many of us are far more interested in talking than in listening, or we simply refuse to listen to what we dont want to hear.It wasnt until toward the end of my
31、 doctor career that I found it really worked that one was being truly listened to. In about a quarter of the patients I saw, surprising improvement was shown during the first few months of psychotherapy (心理疗法), before any of the roots of problems had been uncovered or explained. There are several re
32、asons for this phenomenon, but chief among them, I believe, was the patients sense that he or she was being truly listened to, often for the first time in years, and for some, perhaps for the first time ever.32. The phrase “stepping into his or her shoes” in Paragraph 2 probably means _.A. preparing
33、 a topic list firstB. focusing on ones own mindC. directing the talk to the desired resultsD. experiencing the speakers inside world33. What is mainly discussed in Paragraph 2 ?A. How to listen well.B. What to listen to.C. Benefits of listening. D. Problems in listening.34. According to the author,
34、in communication people usually _.A. listen activelyB. set aside their prejudicesC. listen purposefully D. open up their inner mind35. According to the author, the patients improved mainly because _.A. they were taken good care ofB. they knew they were truly listened toC. they had partners to talk t
35、oD. they knew the roots of problems 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）People who are confident really seem to be naturally outstanding and just seem to do everything with more style than others. 36 It is a habit that everyone can develop in life.
