24、ulture. Meaning is in the person, not in the word, as each person is the product of a particular culture that passes on shared and appropriate meanings. Thus, if we want to learn to communicate well in a foreign language, we must understand the culture that gives that language meaning. Culture gives
25、 meaning and provides the context for communication, and the ability to communicate allows us to act out our cultural values and to share our language and our culture.But our own native language and culture are so much a part of us that we take them for granted. When we travel to another country, it
26、s as if we carry along with our passports, we view the new environment using our own culture as the standard, and although not purposely , our ways of thinking and acting often get in the way of our understanding other languages and cultures. The ability and willingness to change lenses (视角) when we
27、 look at a different culture is both the cure and the prevention for such cultural blindness. Studying a new language provides us the opportunity to practise changing lenses when we also learn the context or the culture to which it belongs.56The main idea of the first paragraph is that . Awords are

30、learn from this passage? AYou have to forget your culture to prevent cultural blindness.BThe meanings of words are not very important in language learning.CCulture is a must for learners of foreign languages.DOne has to live in the country to learn its language well.BThousands of jobs come into our
31、Job Centre every week, but they get snapped up (抢购) quickly. So although we shall do all we can to help you, its important for you to do all you can to help yourself. This passage tells you how.Registered (注册) for workOnce you have registered for work we will match you will available vacancies. If y
32、ou want to claim unemployment benefit (失业津贴), you also have to get registered at our Job Centre. But you actually apply for and claim it at the local Unemployment Office.Getting a job through self service Jobs that come in are put on self - service show as soon as possible. Half the people who find
33、jobs through our Job Centre find them through self service. You can call in at any time to look at the jobs shown.Come to our Employment AdvisersIf you want more help or advice, dont forget thats what were here for. Our Employment Advisers can help you with things like:thinking about the different s

35、 different will suit you quite well. Keep this in mind when you are talking with Employment Advisers.If you dont find a job on your first visitGo into self service as often as you can to look at the jobs on show there. Good vacancies are coming in all the time just because youve been registered for

AjobsBbenefitsCsuggestionsDservicesCThe human body is a living machine, and, like all machines, it needs “fuel” to supply it with energy. This provided by the food we eat. But h
39、ow much we need to stay healthy?The energy value of food is usually measured in calories. A calorie is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 kg of water by 1. The number of calories people need per day is different, as the chat below shows. Also, the number of calories you use at
40、 any moment normally depends on the activity you are in. For example, you need more calories for standing than for sitting, more for running than for walking, and so on.The energy in food is mainly in the form of three kinds of chemical materials-carbohydrate, protein and fat. Carbohydrate provides
41、3.8 Cal/gm (calories per gram) of energy, protein 4.0 Cal/gm, and fat 8.8 Cal/gm. Each food contains different amounts of these materials, as the second chart shows.CALORIES NEEDED PER DAYBABY750OFFICE WORKWR2700CHILD AGED 82100WOMAN FEEDING BABY2700MAN OVER 702100BOY AGED 163000WOMAN3600FARMER2600C

But 20 years is also long enough for a man to grow up. It is always
46、 painful. For Andre Agassi, maturing in the spotlight of international tennis competition was even harder.On September 3, the American tennis player said a tearful goodbye to his 21-year career after a third-round defeat in the US Open. The 36-year-old tried his best, but was unable to keep up with
47、German Benjamin Becker, more than ten years his junior.“The scoreboard said I lost today, but what the scoreboard doesnt say is what Ive found,” Agassi said to the fans. “I have found inspiration and you willed me to succeed.” It was an emotional speech at the end of a long career. Agassi hated tenn
48、is as a teenager as much as he loves it now. His father made him play when he was a child. He got bored, and became a rebel(叛逆). The strict training that his father pushed upon him got in the way of his wild lifestyle. He grew hair long, wore colourful clothes and spat at an umpire. Over the years,
49、he has made bad jokes during news conferences.Asked what he would say to his 17-year-old self, Agassi answered, I would say, I understand you a lot more than I want to be you.The turning point in Agassis career came in 1992 when he unexpectedly won his first Grand Slam(大满贯赛事) at Wimbledon. It was th
50、e first time Agassi understood what real champions finally understand: winning is a test of nerves and not just power, its a marathon, not a sprint.And what a marathon Agassi was about to begin. He cut his long hair, got fitter and tightened up emotionally. On the court, he was ranked No 1 for almos
51、t two years. His lowest point came in 1997 when his ranking dropped to No 141. He didnt quit though. “I knew that I would try to get the most out of myself every day from that day forward. That was my commitment, he said. That never stopped.”68The underlined phrase “more than ten years his junior” i
52、n the second paragraph means .Ahaving lower ranking than Agassi for more than ten yearsBhaving higher ranking than Agassi for more than ten yearsCmore than ten years older than AgassiDmore than ten years younger than Agassi69From paragraph 3, we know after Agassi was defeated in the competition he f
53、elt .Aangry with the judgeBdisappointed with the scoreboardCregretful but encouragedDdesparing70The passage implies Aafter 1997 Agassi began to take up marathon besides tennisBAgassi began to play tennis before he was fifteenCAgassi decided to quit his sports careerDthe reason why Agassi lost his la
54、st competition was that he was lack of courage and power71The score of the match between Agassi and Becker is .A0-2B0-3C1-3D2-3EIn cities with rent control, the city government sets the maximum rent that a landlord (房主)can charge for an apartment. Supporters of rent control argue that it protects pe
55、ople who are living in apartments. Their rent cannot increase; therefore, they are not in danger of losing their homes. However, the critics say that after a long time, rent control may have negative effects. Landlords know that they cannot increase their profits. Therefore, they invest (投资)in other
56、 businesses where they can increase their profits. They do not invest in new buildings which would also be rent -controlled. As a result, new apartments are not built. Many people who need apartments cannot find any. According to the critics, the end result of rent control is a shortage of apartment
57、s in the city. Some theorists argue that the minimum wage law can cause problems in the same way. The federal government sets the minimum that an employer must pay workers. The minimum helps people who generally look for unskilled, low-paying jobs. However, if the minimum is high, employers may hire
58、 fewer workers. They will replace workers with machinery. The price, which is the wage that employers must pay, increases. Therefore, other things being equal, the number of workers that employers want decreases. Thus, critics claim, an increase in the minimum wage may cause unemployment. Some poor
59、people may find themselves without jobs instead of with jobs at the minimum wage. Supporters of the minimum wage say that it helps people keep their dignity. Because of the law, workers cannot sell their services for less than the minimum. Furthermore employers cannot force workers to accept jobs at
60、 unfair wages.Economic theory predicts the results of economic decisions such as decisions about rent control, price control and the minimum wage. The predictions may be correct only if other things are equal. Economists do not agree on some of the predictions. They also do not agree on the value of
61、 different decisions. Some economists support a particular decision while others criticize it. Economists do agree, However, that there are no simple answers to economic questions.72There is the possibility that setting maximum rent may _.Acause a shortage of apartmentsBworry those who rent apartmen
