31、ed. “Sure,” said Paul. “Want to join me?” I didnt answer. Paul knew I was terrified of heights. I could manage the low board, but the high board? Never. I watched enviously as Paul walked to the end of the board, paused briefly, and did a perfect jackknife. It looked so easy. “Hey, why not?” teased
32、a reckless(鲁莽的) voice in my head. “Youre a good simmer.” So when Paul came back, I said casually, “Ill take a turn, too.” And before Paul could make some remarks, I got to my feet. As I walked to the tower, my legs didnt seem to belong to me. Standing on the end of the board, I looked down. I couldn
33、t believe how far away the water was. I felt as if I were on the edge of a cliff with a mile of air between me and a bottomless sea. I couldnt; I just couldnt. I had to get back down. But there were impatient kids on the steps behind me. Would they let me by, or would they tease me? And Paul - even
34、in my terror I guessed what he would say. Suddenly I heard Paul shouting far below. “Come down right now! My watch, youre wearing my watch.” An unbelievably sweet relief flooded into me. I quickly turned and threaded my way through the waiting divers, murmuring, “Excuse me, sorry, I just forget abou
35、t the watch” I didnt even bother to pretend with Paul. He said, “I could see that you were in trouble. You were scared to death, werent you? I nodded. “It happens,” said Paul. “I was scared, too, the first few times off the high board. I got over it, and so will you. But for now youre saved.” I said
36、, “Me? I thought you were worried - I mean, you said you were worried - about your watch.” “This watch,” he said, “is waterproof.” 66. What did Paul ask his brother to do? A.

39、e the writer some instructions about diving. BFluency(流利) in another language is one of the most important aims of a newcomer to another country. In addition, understanding the culture and learning to communicate comfortably with people of that culture are as important as learning the rules of the l
40、anguage. Language learning and culture learning go together and may take a long time.Sometimes people feel that they understand a culture after a few weeks or months. People do learn a lot when they first begin living in another culture, but this is only the first stage of learning. It usually invol
41、ves(含包) things like learning everyday activities and some basic customs.To really understand another culture, people have to go beyond the first stage, This is challenge because it is often difficult to know what to learn. Much of what we call “culture” is hard to see.Culture is like an iceberg. Pic
42、ture in your mind a huge iceberg in the ocean. The only part of the iceberg that you see is the tip. You dont see the rest of the iceberg because it is hidden from sight in the water. It is easy to forget that it is there. Most of the iceberg is deep within the ocean, just as much of a culture is de
43、ep within its people.When you meet someone from another culture， certain culture differences are obvious: You hear another language or you hear your own language spoken with an accent. You see different foods, clothes and sometimes physical characteristics of people. You observe new customs or habit
44、s, such as the use of chopsticks, and, bowing or kissing on both cheeks as a greeting. These differences are interesting and important, but they are usually not too difficult to understand. They are visible so they are seen easily and quickly.The part of culture that is like the underwater part of t
45、he iceberg consists of assumptions(设想), communication styles, values, and beliefs about what is right and wrong. The hidden part of culture affects much of a persons way of thinking and communicating. It is the meaning behind his or her verbal (言语的) and nonverbal language. Learning to communicate we

50、ommunication styles.CDont go to Kauai. Go to any of the other Hawaiian IslandsMaui, Lanai, the Big Islandbut leave Kauai for us. The weather on Kauai is so unpredictable that sometimes it rains all dayin fact, its the second wettest spot on the earth. Yes, there are giant double rainbows all the tim
51、e, and the sunlight through the clouds is magical. But if you are not interested in these, go somewhere else. You just cant control the nature on Kauai, and who wants to surrender to the nature when you could be at a fine hotel, lying in a comfortable chair next to a swimming pool, with food served
52、upon request? So what if Kauai produces surf champions the way Texas produces cowboys? Most of its 300 white-sand beaches are unmarked. Unless you connect with the local people, the hidden spots are hard to find. While Hanalei is the most beautiful town youve ever dreamed of, you can forget about di
53、scos and clubs. Worse, it doesnt have one single four-star restaurant. What it does have is the original drive- through places where you pass by a rambutan tree (红毛丹树)，and pick a piece of fruit.Shopping in Kauai? Forget itunless you are interested in shell necklaces and beautifully carved wood bowls
54、. Kauai is not about pampering. Its about going natural and finding the nature within you. Its a do-it-yourself place that offers walking along the coast, driving and swimming in the Pacific Ocean, and lying on the beach.Dont go to Kauai unless you have a lot of time, because theres only one road, w
55、hich can be slightly dull. It winds through the beautiful scenery of waterfalls, rivers flowing into the ocean, and taro(芋头)fields. You have no choice but to look at everything, because the speed limit is 35 m.p.h.If youre not interested in color, dont bother with Kauai, because thats what you getre
56、d roads, blue oceans, and a hundred different shades of green. Its like diving on land. Many people on Kauai believe that this is Lemuriaa lost island in the Atlantic. Can you imagine? Those Hawaiians, surfers, New Agers, and people who love nature and beauty and want a different quality of lifewhat
57、 do they know, anyway? Forget about ityoure not going to like it. Go somewhere else. Leave Kauai for us.76. After reading the text, we come to know that it is .A. a piece of shocking news B. an exciting storyC. an angry complaint about a tourist attraction D. a moving advertisement77. It can be lear
58、ned from the text that .A. Kauai is an island near the Hawaiian Islands B. Kauai is another name of the Hawaiian IslandsC. Kauai is one of the Hawaiian Islands D. Kauai doesnt belong to the Hawaiian Islands78. In the writers opinion, Kauai .A. is not worth visiting at all B. is well worth visiting C
59、. is not a beautiful island D. is a dangerous island79. Who would like to visit Kauai? A. Those who love nature. B. Those who love city life.C. Those who love the comfort in a fine hotel. D.

In Kauai there are top class hotels where food is served upon request. DIn the same way that a child must be able to move his arms and legs b
61、efore he can learn to walk, the child must physically be able to produce and experiment particular feelings before these feelings can be modified through learning. Psychologists have found that there are two basic processes by which learning takes place. One kind of learning is called classical cond
62、itioning”. This take places when one event or stimulus(刺激) is always paired with, or followed by, a reward or punishment. It is through classical conditioning that a child learns to connect his mothers face and voice with happiness and love, for he learns that this person provides food and comfort.
63、Negative emotions are learned in a similar way. The second kind of learning is called “operant conditioning”. This takes place when a person learns to do things that produce rewards in his environment and learns not to do things that produce punishments. For example, if a mother always attends to he
64、r baby when he cries and comforts him until he is quiet, she may teach him that if he cries he will get attention from mother. Thus, the baby will learn to increase his crying in order to have his mother more. Every day, we grow and have new experiences. We never stop learning by reading, watching t
65、elevision, interacting with other people, and so on. This learning affects our emotions. Why is it that we learn to like some people and dislike others? If a person is nice to us, cares about us, we learn to connect this person with positive feelings, such as joy, happiness, and friendliness. On the
66、 other hand, if a person is mean to us, does not care about us, and even purposely does things to harm us, we learn to connect this person with negative feelings, such as unhappiness, discomfort, and anger. 81.

In the third paragraph, the author is _.A. discussing how
69、we grow and have new experience every dayB. talking about learning to modify emotions through operant conditioningC. suggesting learning by reading, watching television, interacting with people, and so onD. using examples to further explain learning through classical conditioning 84.

70、h following the third, the author will most probably go on to discuss _. A. what positive feelings and negative feelings are B. a third kind of learning C. examples of learning through operant conditioning D. how a child learns to walk85.

Researchers give different names to different learning styles, but they all agree that student
72、s who understand their own styles can improve their study skills. The learning styles described below (visual, auditory, and tactile) are just three of the many ways to identify how people learn.Visual learners have to “see it to believe it”. They often have good imaginations (they can picture thing
73、s in their minds), and they may also have a good sense of colour and artistic ability. These learners may have trouble listening to lectures or instructions if there are no pictures or text to support what they hear. They may also find it hard to focus in a room where people are moving around.Audito
74、ry learners remember information if _. They prefer to learn by listening and will often ask questions about things they read. Reading tasks can he difficult for these learners, and they can quickly lose their focus if there is too much noise in a room.Tactile learners can learn and remember what the
75、y touch. Thats why computers are a big help to these learners; the sense of touch (using the keyboard) helps them remember information. Tactile learners prefer to do “hands-on” activities such as role plays, science experiments, or project that involve buildings. They learn better when they do some
76、sort of physical activity. Tactile learners need to take frequent breaks when they study because they dont like sitting for long periods of time. One thing is true for all learners, whether visual, auditory, or tactile: in the world of education, one of the most important subjects is learning how to
