Bob started to stand up and knocked into the table, spilling his coffee over his notes. “How embarrassing! I am getting so clumsy in my old age.”‎ Everyone had a good laugh, and soon we were all telling stories of our most embarrassing moments. It came around to Frank who sat quietly listening to the others. Someone said, “Come on, Frank. Tell us your most embarrassing moment.”‎ Frank laughed and began to tell us of his childhood. “I grew up in San Pedro. My Dad was a fisherman, and he loved the sea. He had his own boat, but it was hard making a living on the sea. He worked hard and would stay out until he caught enough to feed the family. Not just enough for our family, but also for his Mom and Dad and the other kids that were still at home.”‎ He looked at us and said, “I wish you could have met my Dad. He was a big man, and he was strong from pulling the nets and fighting the seas for his catch. When you got close to him, he smelled like the ocean. He would wear his old canvas, foul-weather coat and his bibbed overalls. His rain hat would be pulled down over his brow. No matter how much my mother washed them, they would still smell of the sea and of fish.”‎ Frank’s voice dropped a bit. “When the weather was bad he would drive me to school. He had this old truck that he used in his fishing business. That truck was older than he was. It would wheeze and rattle down the road. You could hear it coming for blocks. As he would drive toward the school, I would shrink (畏缩) down into the seat hoping to disappear. Half the time, he would slam to a stop and the old truck would belch (喷出) a cloud of smoke. He would pull right up in front, and it seemed like everybody would be standing around and watching. Then he would lean over and give me a big kiss on the cheek and tell me to be a good boy. It was so embarrassing for me. Here, I was twelve years old, and my Dad would lean over and kiss me goodbye!”‎ He paused and then went on, “I remember the day I decided I was too old for a goodbye kiss. When we got to the school and came to a stop, he had his usual big smile. He started to lean toward me, but I put my hand up and said, “No, Dad.” It was the first time I had ever talked to him that way, and he had this surprised look on his face. I said, “Dad, I’m too old for a goodbye kiss. I’m too old for any kind of kiss.” My Dad looked at me for the longest time, and his eyes started to tear ‎ up. Then he turned and looked out the windshield. “ You’re right,” he said. “ You are a big boy....a man. I won’t kiss you anymore.”‎ Frank got a funny look on his face, and the tears began to well up in his eyes, as he spoke. “It wasn’t long after that when my Dad went to sea and never came back. It was a day when most of the fleet (船队) stayed in, but not Dad. He had a big family to feed. They found his boat adrift with its nets half in and half out. He must have gotten into a strong wind and was trying to save the nets and the floats.”‎ I looked at Frank and saw that tears were running down his cheeks. Frank spoke again. “Guys, you don’t know what I would give to have my Dad give me just one more kiss on the cheek…to feel his rough old face… to smell the ocean on him… to feel his arm around my neck. I wish I had been a man then. If I had been a man, I would never have told my Dad I was too old for a goodbye kiss.”‎ ‎16.

The fish are then forced up to the surface in a concentrated mass.‎ Current state; endangered; it ‎ is estimated that there ‎ are about 5000-7500‎ humpback whales ‎ worldwide tail ‎ flukes ‎ Pectoral fin ‎ Humpback whales are sometimes called performers of ‎ the ocean. This is because they can make impressive ‎ movements when they dive. The name “humpback”, which is the common name for this whale, refers to the typical ‎ curve shape the whale’s back forms as it dives. ‎ ‎ Sometimes the humpback will dive with a fantastic ‎ movement known as a breach. During breaching the whale uses its powerful tail flukes to lift nearly two-thirds of its ‎ body out of the water in a giant leap. A breach might also include a sideways twist with fins stretched out like wings,‎ as the whale reaches the height of the breach.‎ ‎ A humpback whale breathes air at the surface of the ‎ Water through two blowholes which are located near the top of the head. It blows a double stream of water that can rise up to 4 meters above the water.‎ ‎ The humpback has a small dorsal fin located towards the tail flukes about two-thirds of the way down its back.‎ other distinguishing features include large pectoral fins,‎ which may be up to a third of the body length, and unique black and white spots on the underside of the tail flukes. ‎ These markings are like fingerprints: no two are the same.‎ ‎ Humpback whales live in large groups. They ‎ communicate with each other through complex “songs”.‎ ‎69. According to Quick Facts, a humpback whale _____.‎ ‎ A. cannot survive in waters near the shore ‎ B. doesn’t live in the same waters all the time C. lives mainly on underwater plants ‎ D. prefers t work alone when hunting food ‎70. To make a breach, a humpback whale must _____‎ ‎ A. use its tail flukes to leap out of the water ‎ B. twist its body sideways t jump high ‎ C. blow two streams of water ‎ D. communicate with a group of humpbacks ‎71.

I received a letter from the head of the Personnel Department that started, "Dear John, I am quite pleased that you have decided to join us." That "quite" saddened me. I thought he was saying "we're kind of pleased you decided to join us although I wish we had hired someone else." Then I discovered that in American English "quite"sometimes means "very", while in British English it means "fairly".‎ So the first lesson about working in other countries is to learn the language and by that I don't just mean the words people speak. It is body language, dress, manners, ideas and so on. The way people do things highlights many of the differences we see between cultures（文化）．‎ Some of these differences may be only on the surface一dress, food and hours of work一while others may be deeper and take longer to deal with. Mostly, it is just a question of getting used to the differences and accepting them, like the climate（气候），while getting on with business.‎ Some of the differences may be an improvement. People are more polite; the service is better; you ask for something to be done and it happens without having to ask again. However, other differences can be troubling, like punctuality（准时）．If you invite people to a party at 7 o'clock your guests will consider it polite to turn up exactly on time in Germany, five minutes early in the American Midwest, an hour early in Japan, 15 minutes afterwards in the UK, up to an hour afterwards in Italy and some time in the evening in Greece. I prefer not to use the word "late" because there is nothing wrong with the times people arrive. It is simply the accepted thing to do in their own country.‎ ‎52. The author was unhappy as mentioned in Paragraph 1 because he thought______．‎ ‎ A. the American bank didn't think much of him ‎ B. the American bank might hire another person ‎ C. it's difficult to get used to American culture ‎ D. it's easy to misunderstand Americans ‎53．The word "highlights" in Paragraph 2 probably means_____.‎ ‎ A. encourages B. helps to narrow ‎ C. increases D. draws attention to ‎54. According to the author, what should we do with most cultural differences?‎ ‎ A. Ask the native people for help.‎ ‎ B. Understand and accept them.‎ ‎ C. Do things in our own way.[来源:1ZXXK]‎ ‎ D. Do in-depth research.‎ ‎55. When invited to a party the people who are usually punctual are______.‎ ‎ A. Italians B. Germans C. Greeks D. the British ‎【答案】ADBB ‎*********************************************************结束 Although the Spring Festival is generally regarded as the most import celebration of the year, the fall and winter have a number of non-native holidays that are gaining popularity among the Chinese.‎ These include Halloween, Christmas and Valentine’s Day. In the past, these foreign holidays were observed only by those who worked for foreign companies or those who had studied or live abroad. But today, many Chinese celebrate the holidays in some manners, such as sending text messages to friends and having a large dinner in a restaurant. Valentine’s Day is mainly for young couples, while Halloween is most celebrated by children.‎ Christmas is becoming increasingly popular among the Chinese, although originally it was heavily promoted by business. During the holiday, some shopping malls put up Christmas trees, inducing(劝说) visitors to write down their Christmas wishes and hang the notes on the trees. In just one or two days, the trees will be filled with all kinds of Christmas messages. For example, “I wish those who love me and whom I love happiness in the next year.” “May God bless my parents’ health and happiness.” “I hope my girlfriend will be admitted by renowned universities.”‎ Sociologists say the rising popularity of Christmas is due to the cheerful and bright colors associated with the holiday. Red is the most popular holiday color in China, representing harmony and indicating a happy event. On Christmas, people may find that Santa Claus and traditional red Chinese lanterns go well together.‎ ‎13. What can be inferred from the passage?‎ A.
