　　Different Cultures

　　The cultures of the East and the West really distinguish each other a lot.

　　The origin of the eastern cultures is mainly from two countries: China and India. Both of the two cultures are developed by rivers-the Yellow River in China and the Hindu River in India. ____2___

　　When the two mother rivers gave birth to the Eastern culture, another famous culture was brought up on the Mesopotamian Plain-the Mesopotamian Civilization. This civilization later on developed into the cultures of Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome. 3___ Like the Chinese culture, the European culture also crossed waters. When the British settled down in America, their culture went with them over, the Atlantic Ocean. So the American culture doesn't distinguish from the European culture a lot。

　　4 Take the language system for example. In the East, most languages belong to the pictographic language while the Western languages are mostly based on the Latin system Other causes like human race difference counts as well. But what's more. due to the far distance and the steep .areas between the East and West, the two cultures seldom communicate until recent centuries. So they grew up totally in their own ways with almost no-interference(干擾) from the other.

　　The differences are everywhere. _ 5 But different cultures make the world of 21st century more colorful. The cultural gap should not be the obstacle (障礙) to the civilization of human being. It ought to be the motivation of our going farther.

　　A. Let us work together to keep a variety of culture.

　　B. One important thing is to learn about other cultures.

　　C. And these two are well-known as the base of the European culture.

　　D. At the same time, some other differences add to the cultural differences.

　　E This is because the culture systems are two separate systems on the whole.

　　F. They helped the two cultures develop for centuries and form their own styles.

　　G. They are obvious and affect people's ways of thinking and their views of the world.

　　Reforestation

　　Around the world there is an increase in the demand for reforestation. This is because the consumption of the forests has affected not only the animals living in the area but also the people. And reforestation is about the rebuilding of the forests that have been severely destroyed. It can offer a lot of benefits when the recreation is successful.

　　1 This includes collecting seedlings(幼苗) that are native in the area to make sure that there is a natural reconstruction of the area. Some additional trees which are not native in the area also need to be planted. 2 The importance of having multiple species of trees is considered to make sure that the needs of other species that will live and grow in the area are met.

　　Destroying a forest is easy but rebuilding it is really hard. 3 The plan must include accurate spacing on plants and trees. This is to ensure that they won’t cover each other while they grow. 4

　　The forest greatly helps in the reduction of the air pollution. Trees are responsible for the production of oxygen and absorption of carbon dioxide. 5 It is there for a reason just like everyone else on this planet.

　　There cannot be a better way to restore the balance of nature than to increase the forest area. We must remember that the forest is a natural habitat of wide variety of animals and plants. In this manner, there is no substitute for reforestation.

　　A. And global warming will speed up the destruction of forests.

　　B. Keep in mind that you can’t just plant the seedlings anywhere.

　　C. Recreations won’t work until all these details have been considered.

　　D. So a good plan is needed to make the reforestation a successful one.

　　E. The forest also protects us from typhoons and other natural disasters.

　　F. There are many things to be done when it comes to this type of effort.

　　G. It is important to make sure that they are suited to the climate and the type of soil.

　　The benefits of keeping a journal (日志)

　　If you want to grow, one important thing you should do is keeping a journal. It may seem simple, but it can make a big difference in your life. I have been keeping journals for years. Writing all the lessons I learn and all the ideas I get has become a habit for me. 1 Here are some benefits you will get by keeping a journal.

　　◆ It prevents you from losing an idea. Have you ever gotten an idea only to lose it later because you didn’t write it down? 2 But then I developed the habit of writing down every idea that came into my mind as soon as possible. If I’m away from my computer, I usually write it down on a piece of paper that I bring wherever I go. I will then transfer the idea to the journal in my computer.

　　◆ It helps you review all the lessons you’ve learned. By reviewing your journal, you can quickly see the lessons you’ve learned and the ideas you’ve gotten. 3 You can use the ideas to propel (鞭策) yourself forward.

　　4 After keeping a journal for years, you can look back at it and see how far you’ve gone. Things that were big problems in the past might seem small today. The raw ideas you had in the past might have been realized today.

　　◆ It helps you expand your ideas. When you try to come up with a sentence to express an idea, you are thinking actively about it. 5 In the end, you will expand your ideas.

　　A. I often experienced that myself.

　　B. It trains you to express your thoughts.

　　C. It allows you to see your progress over time.

　　D. Just use whatever tool you feel comfortable with.

　　E. Thinking actively helps you connect your idea to another idea.

　　F. And to be honest, I can’t imagine what my life would be like without it.

　　G. Then you can do whatever necessary to avoid repeating the same mistakes.

　　【答案】

　　【小題1】F

　　【小題2】A

　　【小題3】G

　　【小題4】C

　　【小題5】E

　　【小題4】C 根據(jù)下句After keeping a journal for years, you can look back at it and see how far you’ve gone.可知寫(xiě)日記可以讓我們回顧過(guò)去，展望未來(lái)，故C項(xiàng)內(nèi)容正確。 【小題5】E 根據(jù)本段第一句It helps you expand your ideas.可知寫(xiě)日記可以幫助我們拓寬視野，從舊的思想拓展到新的思想。故E項(xiàng)正確。

　　This is the season for giving. Looking to get in touch with your generous side? Learn these four habits of truly thoughtful gift givers.

　　1. 36

　　Considerate gift giving is as much about planning as it is about how well you know the person. Take time to think about his or her personality and interests to figure out how he or she will get the most value.

　　2. They don’t focus on cost.

　　The practice of thoughtful giving offers a wealth of benefits, but that doesn’t mean givers should focus on expensive gifts. 37 It seems that having more cash could actually reduce compassion(同情). And isn’t compassion what this time of year is all about? So don’t take it too hard if you don’t have a lot to spend. 38

　　3. They make gifts personal.

　　Gifting is an opportunity to let a person know how much you appreciate and love him, and show how well you know him. 39 Book a massage (按摩), take them to a wine tasting event, or get a couple of tickets to a concert or show. If you’re buying for a parent, taking their kids for an evening could be the best gift of all.

　　4. They think about the presentation.

　　40 See what you have around your house to customize (自定義) packaging. You can use pretty towels to cover something like a bottle of wine. You can also tie on a decoration that fits the theme of your gift.

　　A. They plan ahead.

　　B. Instead, get creative.

　　C. They enjoy giving more than receiving.

　　D. In fact, thoughtful gift givers don’t concentrate on the cost of presents.

　　E. Thoughtful gift givers pay attention to detail, including how their gifts are packaged.

　　F. Make a list of your ideas ahead of time to make sure you find the perfect fit for everyone.

　　G. If you’re buying for someone who seems to have everything, consider gifting an experience.

　　How to protect your ears

　　You and your friends are leaving a concert on a Friday night. When you get outside, your ears are ringing. You have to shout to be heard.　16 So no harm done…right?

　　Not quite. Temporary buzzing may be easy to ignore, but repeated exposure to loud noise will eventually cause serious--- and irreversible(無(wú)法治愈的)--- hearing loss. A new study conducted by researchers at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston shows that one in five people between the ages of 12 and 19 are experiencing slight hearing loss, and one in 20 have mild hearing loss. 17

　　But the good news is that there plenty of ways you can protect your ears from further damage — and still listen to the music you love:

　　Ask around. Put your earbuds in or your headphones on, and then ask a friend next to you whether or not he or she can hear what you’re listening to. 18 Turn it down.

　　Buy noise-canceling headphones. A pair of earbuds or headphones that fits comfortably will limit outside noise so that you can hear your music better at lower volumes.

　　Take breaks. 19 So when listening to music, take your headphones off for 15 or 20 minutes and let your ears enjoy the quiet.

　　20 You can buy a cheap pair at any drugstore as an easy way to lower volume at concerts — or while playing or practicing your own music — without changing the quality of the sound.

　　A. Use earplugs.

　　B. Keep the volume below 70 percent.

　　C. If the answer is yes, your music is too loud.

　　D. Like every other part of your body, your ears need rest.

　　E. But by morning, your hearing is totally back to normal.

　　F. Unfortunately, there’s no way to get back hearing you’ve already lost.

　　G.. The exposure to noise is louder and longer than in any previous generation.
