For example, he or she could understand what building materials were available. In areas with many wood houses, the traveler would have guessed that there were nearby forests. Stone houses would have indicated that stones were easy to get. However, a closer look at the houses would have told the traveler even more about the area.People used to build houses that fitted the climate of their areas. For example, in desert regions there is a big difference between daytime and nighttime temperatures. Therefore, many desert people built houses with very thick walls. These thick walls served a useful purpose in the houses. For example, in the winter the thick walls absorbed the suns warmth during the day and radiated the heat at night. Desert people were relatively comfortable in their homes, or residences, at all times because they built them to fit the desert climate.Then the supply of fuel for electricity became both cheap and easy to get. The effect on housing was immediate. People began to build their homes according to fashion instead of utility. Houses no longer reflected the availability of building materials or climate.7/quiz/take/index.php?QUIZID=40&whatToShow=Full2014/11/2214/18Houses with steep roofs could be found in the tropics, the warm regions of the Earth, even though these pointed roofs originated in snowy regions of the world. Heavy snow falls off a slanted () roof. Another example is the use of glass. Houses made almost completely of glass could be found in very cold places. Yet ordinary glass does not insulate () well because it neither keeps out cold air nor keeps in warm air. As long as fuel was cheap and easy to get, people could build any type of house any place.71. What are two things that a traveler could learn about an area by looking at the houses? A. The climate is poor and so are the people living in it. B. The climate in the area and the kind of building materials easy for the people to reach. C. There is a forest nearby and they are on the top of a mountain. D. They are near a house and its owner is not there at the moment.72. The main idea of Paragraph 1 is that _. A. wood is a forest product B. there are no stones in forests C. houses used to tell about a region D. people used to travel to learn about houses73. The main idea of Paragraph 2 is that _. A. thick walls absorb heat from the sun B. people built houses to fit the climate C. people are comfortable in their houses D. in the desert, daytime temperatures are lower than nighttime temperatures74. The main idea of Paragraphs 3 and 4 is that _. A. heavy snow does not stay on steep roofs B. ordinary glass does not insulate well C. fuel is used to produce electricity D. the supply of fuel affects home building75. What does radiate (Para. 2) mean? A. Give off. B. Absorb.7/quiz/take/index.php?QUIZID=40&whatToShow=Full2014/11/2215/18 C. Gather. D. Consume.Questions 76 to 80 are based on the same passage or dialog.The term culture shock has already begun to creep into the popular vocabulary. Culture shock is the effect that involvement in a strange culture has on the unprepared visitor. Culture shock is what happens when a traveler suddenly finds himself in a place where yes may mean no, where a fixed price is negotiable, where to be kept waiting in an outer office is no cause for insult, where laughter may signify () anger.The culture shock phenomenon causes a breakdown in communication, a misreading of reality, an inability to cope. Yet culture shock is relatively mild in comparison with the much more serious malady (), future shock. Future shock is brought on by the premature arrival of the future. It may well be the most important disease of tomorrow.Take an individual out of his own culture and set him down suddenly in an environment sharply different from his own, with a different set of cues to react todifferent conceptions () of time, space, work, love, religion, sex, and everything else, then the dislocation he suffers will be severe. Given few clues as to what kind of behavior is rational under the radically new circumstances, the victim may well become a danger to himself and others.Now imagine not merely an individual but an entire society, an entire generationincluding its weakest, least intelligent, and most irrational memberssuddenly transported into this new world. The result is mass disorientation (), future shock on a grand scale.This is the prospect that man now faces. Change is avalanching () upon our heads and most people are unprepared to cope with it.76. Culture shock occurs when _. A. one loses all hopes of returning to his home environment B. one expresses ideas and emotions contrary to what he intends to express C. one cannot make accurate judgment using ones own value standards D. one cannot conduct negotiations for goods of fixed prices77. Future shock is much more serious than culture shock as _. A. it concerns the problems of the future B. it affects people on a grand scale C. it causes personal insults7/quiz/take/index.php?QUIZID=40&whatToShow=Full2014/11/2216/18 D. it destroys the foundation of the society78. The word cue in Para. 3 most probably refers to something that _. A. puzzles an individual B. disturbs an individuals normal way of life C. helps an individual to function in society D. arouses an individuals interest in the new culture79. One effective way to prevent future shock is to _. A. get people prepared for future change B. keep people informed of foreign cultures C. have people resist possible future change D. acquaint people with the harm of future change80. It can be inferred that the authors tone in the passage is _. A. humorous B. exaggerated C. radical D. seriousQuestions 81 to 85 are based on the same passage or dialog.Foxes and farmers have never got on well.
