15、cket, to give her first speech. Fourteen hours later, four perfectly dressed Japanese gentlemen greeted her at Narita Airport. Smiling and bowing low, they handed her their business cards. With her bag in one hand, Geri took their cards with the other. She thanked them, glanced briefly at the cards,
16、 and put them into her jeans pocket quickly. When the five of them arrived at the hotel, they invited Geri to tea in the lobby (大厅). While sipping tea, the gentlemen presented her with a small gift which she eagerly opened. She was thrilled with the gift and shouted excitedly, “Oh, its beautiful!” A
17、t this point, the four Japanese gentlemen stood up and, bowing only very slightly, said “Sayonara” and left immediately. Poor Geri was left astonished. What did she do wrong?Everything! Her jeans were the first gaffe. Even if youre coming off a bicycle in Japan, you do not meet c1ients (客人) casually
18、 dressed. The second mistake was Geris handling of their business cards rudely. In Japan, the business card is one of the most important communicative tools. It is always presented and accepted respectfully with both hands. However, Geri put their cards away much too quickly. In Japan, people use bu
19、siness cards as a conversation starter. You chat about each others cards and work and do not put theirs away until they gently and respectfully place yours in safekeeping. Putting it carelessly into her jeans pocket was the ultimate disrespect.Then, the fourth horror of horrors was that Geri should
20、not have opened the gift in front of her clients. In a land where saving face is critical, it would be embarrassing to discover the gift they gave was not as nice as the one they received. What is worse, Geri hadnt even given them a gift!26. In the four Japanese gentlemens eyes, Geri took their card
21、s _.A. excitedlyB. embarrassinglyC. politelyD. disrespectfully27. Why did the four Japanese gentlemen leave Geri suddenly?A. Because they couldnt bear Geris behavior any longer.B. Because they had finished the task.C. Because Geri had something more important to do.D. Because Geri felt embarrassed.2
22、8. What does the underlined word “gaffe” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. ignoranceB. sadnessC. mistakeD. carelessness 29. The third mistake Geri made was that she _.A. used her own card as a conversation starterB. took her clients cards with one hand C. kept her clients cards in a wrong placeD. met
23、her clients in jeans30. What lesson can we draw from this story?A. Honesty is the best policy.B. Think twice before you take any action.C. When in Rome, do as the Romans do.D. Dont claim to know what you dont know. B Life is to be enjoyed. Theres no point in giving up something you enjoy unless you
24、get something back thats even better. When people eat more healthfully, exercise, quit smoking, and manage stress better, they find that they feel so much better that it reconstructs the reason for making these changes from fear of dying to joy of living. The latest studies show that when you exerci
25、se and eat right: YOUR BRAIN receives more blood flow and oxygen, so you become smarter, think more clearly, have more energy, and need less sleep. Two studies showed that just walking for three hours per week for only three months caused so many new neurons (神经细胞) to grow that it actually increased
26、 the size of peoples brains!YOUR FACE receives more blood flow, so your skin glows more and wrinkles less. You look younger and more attractive. In contrast, an unhealthy diet, chronic emotional stress and smoking reduce blood flow to your face so you age more quickly. Smoking accelerates aging beca
27、use nicotine causes your arteries (动脉) to narrow down, which decreases blood flow to your face and makes it wrinkle earlier. This is why smokers look years older than they really are.YOUR GENES change. In May, a study was published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences showing that
28、changing your lifestyle changes your genes. YOUR TELOMERES (染色体端粒) get longer. Telomeres are the ends of our chromosomes (染色体) that control how long we live. As telomeres become shorter, then cells age more quickly, thus shortening your life.Besides, one of the most interesting findings in the study
29、 was that the mothers awareness of stress was more important than what was really occurring in their lives. The researchers gave the women a questionnaire and asked them to rate on a three-point scale how stressed they felt each day, and how out of control their lives felt to them. The women who wer
30、e aware that they were under heavy stress had significantly shortened and damaged telomeres compared with those who felt more relaxed. On the contrary, some of the women who felt relaxed despite raising a disabled child had more normal-appearing telomeres.In other words, if you feel stressed, you ar
31、e stressed; if you feel fine, you are fine.31. Which of the following are good for lengthening ones life, according to the passage? eat healthy food drink plenty of water take exercise get up early go to sleep early release ones stress A. B. C. D. 32. The underlined words “your skin glows” in Paragr
32、aph 3 are closest in meaning to _.A. your skin becomes white as there is plenty of sunshine B. your skin becomes smooth as there is much blood in itC. your skin looks pink as you are healthyD. your skin becomes soft as you exercise enough33. In the authors opinion, when you exercise and eat right, y
33、ou will experience some changes EXCEPT _.A. brains becoming clevererB. faces having fewer wrinkles C. arteries turning narrower D. genes being changed34. From the last but one paragraph we learn that _.A. mothers will have more damaged telomeres if they raise a disabled child B. mothers dont know ho
34、w to handle stress effectivelyC. some women were asked to fill out a questionnaire about educating children D. mothers positive attitudes are the key to managing their stress35. The best title for the passage would be _. A. Eat better, live betterB. Feel better, live longerC. Less stress, fewer dise
35、ases D. Smoke more, age soonerC Child prodigies (神童) cause awe, wonder and sometimes jealousy: how can such young children display the kinds of musical or mathematical talents that most adults will never master, even with years of hard practice? It is widely acknowledged that prodigies are born, not
36、 made. Practice alone isnt going to turn out the next 6-year-old Mozart.So finds a recent study of eight famous young prodigies, which sought to make it easier to understand the causes of their talent. The study found a few key characteristics these youngsters had in common. For example, they all ha
37、d exceptional working memories, far better than ordinary people. Surprisingly, however, the study found that not all of the prodigies had high IQs. Indeed, while they had higher-than-average intelligence, some didnt have IQs that were as remarkable as their early achievements would suggest.The autho
38、rs also found that prodigies scored high in autistic (自闭症的) features, especially in their extreme attention to details. They scored even higher on this feature than people diagnosed (诊断) with Aspergers syndrome, a high-functioning form of autism (自闭症) that typically includes great enthusiasm about d
39、etails.Three of the eight prodigies had a diagnosed autism disorder. Four of the eight families included in the study reported autism diagnoses in first-or-second-degree relatives, and three of these families reported a total of 11 close relatives with autism. In the general population, in compariso
40、n, about 1 in 88 people have either autism or Aspergers.Other unusual similarities between prodigies and those with autism: theyre both more likely to be male and both are associated with difficult pregnancies, suggesting that what they had gone through before they were born may play a role in their
41、 development.Yet, very little research has been done on the connection between autism and extreme talent. As a matter of fact, prodigies appear to benefit from certain autistic tendencies. In other words, these children may have some genetic feature or learned skill that allows them to maintain inte
42、nse focus, without damaging their social skills or suffering from other disabilities that typically accompany autism disorders. Comparing these children with those who have autism could therefore potentially help explain what goes wrong in those who develop disabling forms of autism and what goes ri
43、ght in others with similar features who simply benefit from the condition and are able to improve their abilities.According to Paragraph 1, what is the common idea towards child prodigies?A. They are not created.B. Practice can create child prodigies.C. They must be created.D. Musical child prodigie
44、s are created within several years.Which of the following is TRUE according to the recent study?A. All the child prodigies have limited working memories.B. All the child prodigies dont have high IQs.C. All the child prodigies have autism at the same time.D. Child prodigies come into being after a go
45、od education.What can we learn from Paragraph 4?A. All these eight prodigies are diagnosed with autism.B. Prodigies are more likely to suffer from autism than the ordinary people.C. Children diagnosed with autism are likely to become a prodigy.D. Child prodigies and those with autism have something
46、in common. 39. What is the main idea of the passage?A. What talent and autism have in common?B. What are the characteristics of talent?C. What are the findings about a mental disease called autism?D. What is autism? 40. Such an article is most likely to be found in _.A. a business magazine B. a news
47、paper C. a sports program on TV D. the Science Column of a magazineD When Peng Liyuan stepped off the plane in Moscow, the whole world wanted to know who dressed the elegant first lady. The reporter released the secretMa Ke.Peng Liyuan has been wearing Ma Kes designs for more than a decade, a fact t
48、hat was only highlighted recently when she was on her first state visit, accompanying her husband President Xi Jinping. The elegant and attractive Peng, formerly a popular singer, has been compared with the US first lady Michelle Obama and Frances Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, since stepping off the airplane
49、 in Moscow on March 22. Suddenly, everyone was curious to know more about the first ladys wardrobe.Even so, Ma prefers a low-key approach. “If you eat a tasty egg why would you want to see the hen?” she says of all the media attention.Mas relationship with Peng began 10 years ago after a concert in
50、Guangzhou when a reporter told Peng she knew the designer behind the label Exception de Mixmind. Peng asked for an introduction because she was a fan of Mas designs and had been wearing them for years.The two naturally became friends. Ma says: “The painting reflects the painter, and clothes reflect
51、both the designer and the wearer. Someone desires fame and wealth, or love and sympathy; what you have in your heart is reflected in the design. Those who dont share my philosophy wont buy my clothes. Peng is a caring person, devoted to charity and environmental protection, which is exactly what Im
52、doing now.”However, regardless of the brand, Pengs support of Chinese labels has surprised millions of Chinese who favor foreign fashion brands.“Instead she presented a vision of Chinese fashion, desiring to bring Chinese designers to the world stage,” says a western designer.The first ladys double-
