34、 Nora did. She wasnt even four, but she 36 at my coat and said, “That mans cold. Daddy, 37 we take him home?” I dont remember my reply. But I do remember a sudden 38 feeling inside me. I had always been delighted at how much my daughter noticed in her 39 , whether it was 40 in flight or children pla

35、ying. But now she was noticing 41 and beggary. A few days later, I saw an article in the newspaper about volunteers who picked up a food package from a nearby school on a Sunday morning and 42 it to an elderly person. It was quick and easy. I 43 us up. Nora was 44 about it. She could understand the

36、importance of food, so she could easily see how 45 our job was. When Sunday came, she was ready, but I had to 46 myself to leave the house to fetch the food package. On my way to the school, I fought an urge to turn 47 . The Sunday paper and coffee were waiting for me at home. Why do this? 48 , we p

37、honed the elderly person wed been appointed. She 49 us right over. The building was in a bad state. Facing us was a silver-haired woman in an old dress.

43、 are mobile and very open. People here change jobs and move house quite often. As a result, they have a lot of relationships that often last only a short time, and they need to get to know people quickly. So its normal to have friendly conversations with people that they have just met, and you can t

44、alk about things that other cultures would regard as personal. On the other hand，there are more crowded and less mobile societies where long term relationships are more important. A Malaysian or Mexican business person, for example, will want to get to know you very well before he or she feels happy

45、 to start business. But when you do get to know each other, the relationship becomes much deeper than it would in a mobile society.To Americans, both Europeans and Asians seem cool and formal at first. On the other hand, as a passenger from a less mobile society puts it, its no fun spending several

46、hours next to a stranger who wants to tell you all about his or her life and asks you all sorts of questions that you dont want to answer.Cross-cultural differences arent just a problem for travelers, but also for the flights that carry them. All flights want to provide the best service, but ideas a

47、bout good service are different from place to place. This can be seen most clearly in the way that problems are dealt with.Some societies have “universalist” cultures. These societies strongly respect rules, and they treat every person and situation in basically the same way. “Particularist”societie

48、s, on the other hand, also have rules, but they are less important than the societys unwritten ideas about what is right or wrong for a particular situation or a particular person. So the normal rules are changed to fit the needs of the situation or the importance of the person.This difference can c

49、ause problems. A traveler from a particularist society, India, is checking in for a flight in Germany, a country which has a universalist culture. The Indian traveler has two much luggage, but he explains that he has been away from home for a long time and the suitcases are full of presents for his

50、family. He expects that the check in official will understand his problem and will change the rules for him. The check in official explains that if he was allowed to have too much luggage, it wouldnt be fair to the other passengers. But the traveler thinks this is unfair, because the other passenger

51、s dont have his problem.56. Often moving from one place to another makes people like Americans and Australians .Alike traveling better Beasy to communicate withCdifficult to make real friends Dhave a longterm relationship with their neighbors57. People like Malaysians prefer to associate with those

52、_.Awho will tell them everything of their own Bwho want to do business with themCthey know quite well Dwho are good at talking58. A person from a less mobile society will feel it _ when a stranger keeps talking to him or her, and asking him or her questions.Aboring Bfriendly Cnormal Drough59. The wr

53、iter of the passage thinks that the Indian and the German have different ideas about rules because of different _.Ainterests Bhabits and customs Ccultures Dways of lifeBBreathe, wave and smile. Along with more than 300 other seniors, I marched into the stadium on the afternoon of May 10. The audienc

54、e burst into deafening cheers. The huge stadium shook with all the whistling and clapping.It was as if a Hollywood superstar had walked on stage. And indeed, every single senior that day was a star of the moment. Each deserved it. The seniors had been preparing for four years for this once-in-a-life

55、time momentthe commencement (graduation ceremony).Seated, I waited anxiously for the opening address. As a foreign exchange student, I was not able to receive a diploma. However, I still had the wonderful feeling of being part of things. Like the other graduates, I was dressed in marron cap and gown

56、.Our principal, Mr Glover, delivered a short, warm greeting. The US national anthem followed and then, hands on chests, a solemn Pledge of Allegiance (美国的爱国誓言).Students who had excelled academically gave farewell speeches. The tears in some eyes convinced me that many had deep feelings about the occ

57、asion. It was as the class motto says, “Life brings us tears, smiles and memories. The tears dry; the smiles fade; but the memories last forever.”Then came the core (the most important part) of the commencement. Hundreds of names were announced. Each graduate walked across the stage to receive his o

58、r her diploma from the principal. From the different cheers each graduate got, we had the funny sense that it was a kind of competition of who could cheer the loudest.To be honest, the presentation of diplomas got boring. A girl sitting next to me even started yawning. But it wasnt boring for those

59、receiving the diploma: they would treasure the moment the principal placed the sacred brown document in their hands for the rest of their lives.A new page in the book of that persons life had turned. They were glimpsing their futures: futures of challenge, hardship, perhaps loneliness too, which wou

60、ld take all of their courage.60. Whats the article mainly about?A. An American high schools graduation ceremony. B. The opening ceremony of a sports meeting.C. A presentation of college diplomas. D. A US colleges farewell party.61. From the text, we can conclude that_.A. a diploma ensures a good job B. a diploma guarantees a bright futureC. the commencement symbolizes the beginning of a new stage in lifeD. everyone felt excited at the presentation of the diploma62. According to the passage, which of the followin
