I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of clothes that wouldnt fit. I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model. I realized this a day later, when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautiful when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night. Fortunately, I didnt get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static(静电) noise. For some reason, when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually, this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉) shaking my set.When neither of these methods removed the static noise, I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my fist, and it stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the set is working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble.24. Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set?A. He got an older model than he had expected.B. He couldnt return it when it was broken.C. He could have bought it at a lower price.D. He failed to find any movie shows on it.25. Which of the following can best replace the phrase “signed off” in paragraph 1?A. ended all their programs B. provided fewer channels C. changed to commercials D. showed all-night movies26. How does the author sound when telling the story?A. Curious B. Anxious C. Cautious D. HumorousCFacial expressions carry meaning that is determined by situations and relationships. For example, in American culture (文化) the smile is in general an expression of pleasure. Yet it also has other uses. A womans smile at a police officer does not carry the same meaning as the smile she gives to a young child. A smile may show love or politeness. It can also hide true feelings. It often causes confusion (困惑) across cultures. For example, many people in Russia consider smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even improper. Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places (although this is less common in big cities). Some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places; some Americans believe that Russians dont smile enough. In Southeast Asian culture, a smile is frequently used to cover painful feelings. Vietnamese people may tell a sad story but end the story with a smile. Our faces show emotions (情感), but we should not attempt to “read” people from another culture as we would “read” someone from our own culture. The fact that members of one culture do not express their emotions as openly as members of another does not mean that they do not experience emotions. Rather, there are cultural differences in the amount of facial expressions permitted. For example, in public and in formal situations many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do. When with friends, Japanese and Americans seem to show their emotions similarly. It is difficult to generalize about Americans and facial expressiveness because of personal and cultural differences in the United States. People from certain cultural backgrounds in the United States seem to be more facially expressive than others. The key is to try not to judge people whose ways of showing emotion are different. If we judge according to our own cultural habits, we may make the mistake of “reading” the other person incorrectly.27. What does the smile usually mean in the U.S.? A. Love. B. Politeness. C. Joy. D. Thankfulness.28. The author mentions the smile of the Vietnamese to prove that smile can _ . A. show friendliness to strangers B. be used to hide true feelings C. be used in the wrong places D. show personal habits29. What should we do before attempting to “read” people? A.Understand their cultural backgrounds. B. Learn about their relations with others. C. Find out about their past experience. D. Figure out what they will do next.30. What would be the best title for the test? A. Cultural Differences B. Smiles and Relationship C. Facial Expressiveness D. Habits and Emotions第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分， 满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。For the question of how to set goals, we have a very simple process that you can go through to set your personal goals. 31 Identify your personal values and task statements. 32 If you can identity your personal values, your personal goal will not go wrong.
