Nor can many animals either store or produce water in their bodies, as the camel and kangaroo rat 41 . So they must find ways to 42 water loss from their bodie

Only 45 the sun has set does the desert come fully to life. The night is 46 cool, and the darkness provide

So the coming of darkness is the signal 48 the large majority of animals and insects (昆虫) to continue their search for water and food. When morning comes, most of them seek 49 again: many go underground; nearly all find 50

Buzy confronted 716 students

27、 with pictures of extremely angry persons, and asked them to identify (识别) the emotion from the facial expressions. Only two percent made correct judgments. Anger was most frequently judged as “Pleased”.And a typical reaction of a student confronted with the picture of a man who was mad was to class

28、ify his expression as either “bewildered”, “quizzical”, or simply “amazed”. Other studies showed that it is extremely difficult to tell whether a man is angry or not just by looking at his face. The investigators found further that women are better at finding out anger from facial expressions than m

29、en are. In fact, they found that psychological training does not improve ones ability to judge a mans emotions by his expressions but actually hinders it. For in the university tests, the more courses the student had taken in psychology, the poorer judgment score he turned in. 56. The information in

30、 this passage centers around _ .A. the relation between anger and other emotionsB. the differences between men and women with respect to emotionC. the influence of psychology on human emotionsD. the discovery of anger from facial expressions57. When tested, students with psychological training _ . A

31、. marked less than two percent of their possible choices correctly B. did better than the average student in the group C. seemed less able to judge correctly than the average student D. performed in a manner not specified in the passage58. To achieve the greatest success in finding out anger from fa

32、cial expressions, it would be best to _.A. use adults rather than students as judgesB. ask women who do not study psychology to judge itC. ask men rather than women to judge itD. be satisfied with a two percent success, if such a percentage is guaranteed (保证) BOur culture has caused most Americans t

33、o assume not only that our language is universal but that the gestures we use are understood by everyone. We do not realize that waving good-bye is the way to summon a person from the Philippines to ones side, or that in Italy and some Latin-American countries, curling the finger to oneself is a sig

34、n of farewell.Those private citizens who sent packages to our troops occupying Germany after World War II and marked them GIFT to escape duty payments did not bother to find out that “Gift” means poison in German. Moreover, we like to think of ourselves as friendly, yet we prefer to be at least 3 fe

35、et or an arms length away from others. Latins and Middle Easterners like to come closer and touch, which makes Americans uncomfortable.Our linguistic (语言上的) and cultural blindness and the casualness(随意性) with which we take notice of the developed tastes, gestures, customs and languages of other coun

36、tries, are losing us friends, business and respect in the world.Even here in the United States, we make few concessions (让步) to the needs of foreign visitors. There are no information signs in four languages on our public buildings or monuments; we do not have multilingual (多语的) guided tours. Very f

37、ew restaurant menus have translations, and multilingual waiters, bank clerks and policemen are rare. Our transportation systems have maps in English only and often we ourselves have difficulty understanding them.When we go abroad, we tend to cluster in hotels and restaurants where English is spoken.

38、 The attitudes and information we pick up are conditioned by those natives-usually the richer-who speak English. Our business dealings, as well as the nations diplomacy (外交), are conducted through interpreters.For many years, America and Americans could get by with cultural blindness and linguistic

39、ignorance (无知). After all, America was the most powerful country of the free world, the distributor of needed funds and goods.But all that is past. American dollars no longer buy all good things, and we are slowly beginning to realize that our proper role in the world is changing. A 1979 Harris poll

40、 reported that 55 percent of Americans want this country to play a more significant role in world affairs; we want to have a hand in the important decisions of the next century, even though it may not always be the upper hand.59. It can be inferred that Americans being approached too closely by Midd

41、le Easterners would most probably _. A. stand still B. jump aside C. step forward D. draw back60. The author gives many examples to criticize Americans for their _. A. cultural self-centeredness B. casual manner C. lime care about foreign visitors D. overproudness towards other cultures61. In countr

42、ies other than their own most Americans_. A. are kept apart by me local people B. are not well informed due to the language barrier(障碍) C. tend to get along well with the natives D. need interpreters in hotels and restaurants62. According to me author, Americans cultural blindness and linguistic ign

43、orance(无知) will_.A. affect their image(形象) in the new era B. cut themselves off from the outside world C. limit their role in world affairs D. weaken the position of the US dollar63. The authors intention in writing this article is to make Americans realize that _ . A. It is dangerous to ignore thei

44、r foreign friends B. it is important to maintain their leading role in world affairs C. it is necessary to use several languages in public places D. it is time to get familiar with other culturescAre some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and

45、 experiences? Strangely enough, the answer to both these questions is yes To some extent our intelligence is given us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring (令人厌烦的) environment will de

46、velop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings. Thus the limits of a persons intelligence are fixed at birth, but whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.It is easy

47、 to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random (任意的) from the population, it is likely that their degrees or intelligence w

48、ill be completely different. If on the other hand we take two identical (完全相同的) twins, they will very likely be as intelligent as each other.Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory

49、 where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates (表明) that environments as well as birth play a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact (接触) with each other, but who are not related at all, are

50、likely to have similar degrees of intelligence.64. It can be concluded that _. A. a person beginning to live on a lonely island alone in his late teens may be very low in intelligenceB. a person beginning to live on a lonely island alone in his late teens may be very high in intelligenceC. a husband

51、 and his wife may be similar in intelligence if they have been married long D. a father and his son may be identical in intelligence65. Which of these sentences best describes the writers point on intelligence? A. Intelligence is determined at birth. B. Intelligence is mainly developed by environmen

52、t. C. Some people are born clever and others stupid. D. Intelligence is given at birth, but can be developed by environment66. It is suggested in the passage that _. A. twins always have the same intelligence B. intelligence doesnt depend on relationship by the blood C. unrelated people can never ha

53、ve similar intelligence D. people in the same circle are likely to have similar intelligence67. The best title for this article would be _ .A. On intelligence B. What does intelligence mean C. We are born with intelligence D. Environments play a part in developing intelligence D STAGETiketan antelope (羚羊): A modern dance describing the life of the antelope of Tibet is set for the stage.
