Choose the best answer: ( 12分)We may know that there are four basic stages (阶段) that human beings pass through when they enter and live in a new culture. This process, which helps us to deal with culture shock(文化冲击), is the way our brain and our personality react to(对做出反应) the strange new things we meet with when we move from one culture to another.Culture begins with the “honeymoon (蜜月) stage”. This is the time when we first arrive in which everything about the new culture is strange and exciting. We see new things, hear new sounds and language, eat new kinds of food. This stage can last for quite a long time because we feel we are very excited.Unluckily, the second stage can be more difficult. After we have got used to our new life, we can become very tired and begin to miss our homeland and our family, friends, pets. All the little problems in life seem to be much bigger and more disturbing when you face them in a foreign culture. This period of cultural adjustment(调整) can be very difficult and lead to pulling away from (离开) the new culture.The third stage is called the “adjustment stage”. This is when you begin to realize that things are not so bad in the host culture. Your sense of humor usually becomes stronger and you realize that you are becoming stronger by learning to take care of yourself in the new place. Things are still difficult, but you are now a survivor (生还者)!The fourth stage can be called “at ease at last”. Now you feel quite comfortable in your new place. You can deal with most problems that you have. You may still have problems with the language, but you know you are strong enough to deal with them.There is a fifth stage of culture shock which many people dont know about. This is called “reverse culture shock” (逆向文化冲击). Surprisingly, this happens when you go back to your own culture and find that you have changed and that things there have changed while you have been away. Now you feel a little uncomfortable back home. Life is a struggle!74. Culture shock usually happens when you _.A. are married B. move to a big cityC. go to live in a foreign culture D. meet foreign people in your country75. How do you feel during the first stage of culture shock?A. Lonely and sad. B. Bored and homesick.C. Angry and impatient. D. Happy and excited.76. How could the third stage be described?A. Adjustment.B. Pulling away. C. Shock.D. Anger77. The underlined phrase “at ease” in the fifth passage may probably mean _.A. disturbingB. relaxed C. badD. nervous78. Which of the following is WRONG according to the passage? A. Our brain and our personality will react to the strange new things we meet with when we move from one culture to another. B. The first stage lasts for quite a long time because we are very excited about the new culture. C. The second stage can be more difficult because we can become very tired and begin to miss our homeland and our family, friends, pets. D. During the fourth stage, you dont have any problems with the language and you feel quite comfortable in your new place.79. Whats the main idea of the passage?A. Human beings would pass through four basic stages when they begin to live in a new culture.B. Entering and living in a new culture is challenging.C. It is much fun to live in a new culture.D. Life in a new culture is a struggle.B.Choose the words or expressions and complete the passage:（12分）When you step into a new environment, you must have a strong wish to fit in.

But that night when my dad tried to cheer me up, my laugh turned into c_86_. So it came as no surprise to learn that researchers believe crying and laughing come from the s_87_ part of the brain(大脑). Just as laughing has many health advantages, scientists are discovering that so, too, does crying.Whatever it takes for us to reduce pressure(压力) is important to our emotional(情感的) health, and crying seems to work well. One study found that 85 percent of women and 73 percent of men report feeling better a_88_ crying.Besides, tears attract help from other people. Researchers agree that when we cry, people around us become kinder and friendlier and they are more ready to p_89_ support and comfort. Tears also make us understand our emotions better; sometimes we dont even know were very sad u_90_ we cry. We learn about our emotions through crying, and then we can deal with them.Just as crying can be healthy, not crying holding back tears of anger, stress (紧张) or suffering can be bad for physical health. Studies have shown that too much c_91_ of emotions can lead to high blood pressure, heart problems and some other illnesses. If you have a health problem, doctors will certainly not ask you to cry. But when you feel like crying, dont fight it. Its a n_92_ and healthy emotional response.D.
