On they may ignore signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship.‎ ‎ Different cultures emphasize(强调) the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree. For example, business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust.Even with people an work, it is necessary to spend a lot of time in “small talk”, usually over a glass of tea, before they do any job. In many European countries like the UK or France, people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurant or cafes rather than at the office.‎ ‎ Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures. I once made a speech in Thailand.I had Expected my speech to be a success and start a lively discussion; instead there was an uncomfortable silence. The people present just stared at me and smiled.After getting to know their ways better, I realized that they thought I was talking too much. In my own culture, we express meaning mainly through words, but people there sometimes feel too many words are unnecessary.‎ ‎ Even within Northern Europe,cultural differences can cause serious problems. Certainly, English and German cultures share similar values; however, Germans prefer to get down to business more quickly. We think that they are rude.In fact, this is just because one culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly.‎ ‎ People from different parts of the word have different values, and sometimes these values, and sometimes these values are quite against each other. However, if we can understand them better, a multicultural environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other. ‎ （1） According to the text, we can find____________. A. it is important to build up a relationship despite different cultures  ‎ B. it is easier to build up a lasting working relationship in different cultures C. people from different cultures have similar values  ‎ D. there is no difficulty in meeting people from another cultures 22. In the third paragraph, the author tells his story in Thailand to show that __________.    A. the author prefers to make long speeches B. It’s no use making a long speech in Thailand C. people from Thailand are quiet and shy by nature D. there are differences ever between talk and silence in culture 23. People from different cultures can understand each other better.‎ ‎ A. by sharing different ways of life B. by realizing different values ‎ C. by accepting different habits D. by learning each other’s languages 24. What would be the best title for the text?    A. Multicultural Difference    B. Cross-Cultural Environment    C. How to Understand Each Other ‎   D. How to Develop a Relationship B The elevator of the future may be just over the horizon thanks to German company  ThyssenKrupp．The firm has invented a cable-free elevator(called MULTI)that can go ‎ up and down like traditional lifts but the magnetic motors allow it to go side-to-side too．The designers predict that this technology could increase the carrying capacity of existing architecture by as much as 50％．Plus it looks really neat． ThyssenKrupp plans to use light-weight materials to build its elevator ears of the future and the lack of a cable winch(钢缆绞车)will reduce weight as well．The ears wouldn’t just move up and down as they do now but would instead go in a circle that allows more cars to slip in fight behind the next．The result is that you might only have to wait 10 seconds for the next one to arrive rather than wait for the one you just missed to come back down． The technology backing ThyssenKrupp’s MULTI elevator is very similar to magnetic levitation(磁悬浮)systems used in high-speed trains．Each car has two magnetic motors—one    for vertical movement and another for horizontal．This system can also deliver power to the car's internal lighting and electronics without using wires． A traditional cable driven elevator has mechanical components that can hold the car in place in the event of a power-off．ThyssenKrupp didn’t go into detail about safety measures in its announcement but it's safe to say the magnetic levitation elevator will have some sort of system to hold it in place if the lights go out．ThyssenKrupp is working on a test tower that will be used to develop the MULTI into a rear elevator technology．This should be up and running by 2016 but it will probably take at least a few more years before you get to climb inside a magnetic elevator car． 25．What does the underlined phrase“over the horizon”mean? A．Above sea level．     B．On the way． C．On the market．  D．Out of sight． 26．MULTI is designed to_________． A．save energy      B．carry more passengers C．run much faster   D．be neat and comfortable 27．The key technology about MULTI is its__________. A．cable winch      B．magnetic motor C．wireless electronics  D．lighting material 28．What can be learned from the last paragraph? A．MULTI will sell well． B．MULTI has to work on a tower． C．MULTI will be put into use in 2016． D．MULTI has a safety system in case of power-off．‎ C Top 6 Best Travel Destinations for 2016‎ There is a whole world outside waiting for you, but where should you go for 2016? Here are some recommended destinations for travel lovers. Let’s check them out!‎ Top 1 Transylvania Transylvania, which lies in the heart of Romania, is known as a place connected to the legend of Dracula. The Transylvanian countryside features winding roads, ancient forest and mountain passes.‎ Top 2 West Iceland West Iceland is one of Iceland’s most geologically diverse regions. Its natural wonders are a nearly exhaustive sampling of all that Iceland has to offer, ranging from slumbering volcanos and ‎ majestic waterfalls to a variety of flora and wildlife.‎ Top 3 Vinales Valley Vinales Valley is a karstic depression(岩溶凹陷) in Cuba. The place was listed as a World Heritage by UNESCO Prehistory Wall.‎ Top 4 Friuli The Friuli area in Italy has been known as the “heaven of wine” for a long time. Vineyards, architecture, landscapes and world-class wines all together make the place the ideal destination for wine-lovers.‎ Top 5 Waiheke Island Waiheke Island, New Zealand, is often described as “the jewel of the Hauraki Gulf” and lies 17 kms to the east of Auckland. It’s famous for its red wine & olives, art & sculpture, white sandy beaches and scenic coastal walkways.‎ Top 6 Auvergne The Auvergne is situated in central-southern France, in the centre of the Massif Central. With volcanic landscapes and mountains, picturesque villages and castles, the Auvergne region has a very distinctive character.‎ ‎29. If you are a wine-lover, which attractions will you probably want to visit?‎ ‎   A. Friuli and Waiheke Island   B. Vinales Valley and Auvergne ‎ ‎ C. Transylvania and West Iceland D. Transylvania and Vinales Valley 30. In Transylvania and Auvergne, visitor can enjoy ________.‎ ‎  A. sand beaches B. vineyardsC. waterfalls  D. countryside scenery 31. Those who are probably interested in West Iceland and Vinales Valley ________.‎ ‎   A. love music   B. plant grapes   C. study geology   D. produce wine D The Oscar nominees(被提名的人) for 2016 have been announced, but do we really care? On the 28th of February this year, the Academy Awards will be presented to actors, actresses, directors, musicians and more people. They will be told that they are “the best” in their individual categories and we, the audience, will be persuaded that this is true.‎ This year, the nominations for Best Picture include Bridge of Spies, Mad Max：Fury Road and The Revenant. According to many people, these are great movies, as are the cast who bring the stories to life. Whoever wins the awards for Best Actor and Best Actresses will automatically become (or remain) a Hollywood star.‎ However, just because Leonardo DiCaprio has never won an Oscar (before 2016), that doesn’t mean that his films aren’t amazing. I only need to mention Titanic, Inception, and The Wolf of Wall Street and you can clearly see that he is a fantastic actor. Oh, and of course, let’s not forget Romeo and Juliet.‎ Don’t get me wrong, I am not saying that those who win Academy Awards are not talented people. They most certainly are talented. What I mean is that I don’t think we should define films and actors by how many awards they have in their cabinet(橱柜). After all, at this year’s Golden Globe Awards, Ricky Gervais compared the prizes to “a doorstop”and told the celebrity nominees to “remember that no one cares about that award as much as you do”.‎ So let’s not judge films purely based on what the critics say. If you want to know how good a movie really is, go and watch it!‎ 32. The Oscar nominations for Best Picture in 2016 include the following EXCEPT____________.‎ A. Bridge of Spies B. The Wolf of Wall Street C. Mad Max：Fury Road D. The Revenant 30. What can we know from the third paragraph?‎ A. Leonardo DiCaprio ever stared in Romeo and Juliet.‎ B. Leonardo DiCaprio is not a good actor.‎ C. Inception has ever been awarded Best Picture D. Titanic was directed by Leonardo DiCaprio ‎34. It can be inferred from the passage that _______________.‎ ‎   A. Ricky Gervais is nominated the Academy Awards   ‎ B. Those who win Academy Awards are not talented   ‎ C. The movie that doesn’t get an Oscar can’t be amazing ‎   D. not everyone thinks the fils nominated for Best Picture are great ‎35.According to the author, how should you judge a film?‎ A. By hearing what the critics sayB. By knowing how many awards it gets C. By going and watching it by yourselfD. By reading its reviews from the audience 第二节(共5小题; 每小题2分, 满分10分)‎ 根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Everyoneneedsabreak, andvacationsarenotmeantforseriousstudy. 　36　TheSpringFestivalisaroundthecorner, sothisistheperfecttimetodiscusssomegreatEnglishlanguageliteraturetotakeonalongtrainjourney.
