20、r greeting people they were being introduced to.When people are planning to go to another country, they expect to encounter certain kinds of differences. They usually expect the weather and the food to be different. They expect to find differences in some of the material aspects of life, such as the
21、 availability of cars, electricity, and home heating systems. And, without knowing the details, they expect differences in customs. Customs are the behaviors that are generally expected in specific situations. American men, for example, shake hands with each other when first introduced while Japanes

The most popular reading material is comic books, movie magazines, and TV guides. City libraries have only 10 percent of the t
26、raffic that car washes have. But how do you explain this? An annual book festival in west Los Angeles is flourishing year after year. People wait half an hour for a parking space to become available.This outdoor festival, sponsored by a newspaper, occurs every April for one weekend. This years atten
27、dance was estimated at 70,000 on Saturday and 75,000 on Sunday. The festival consisted of 280 exhibitors. There were about 90 talks given by authors, with an audience question-and answer period following each talk. Autograph(亲笔签名) seekers sought out more than 150 authors. A food court sold all kinds
28、 of popular food and diverse foreign food, from American hamburgers to Hawaiian shave ice drinks. Except for a $ 7 parking fee, the festival was free. Even so, some people avoided the food court prices by staying away and having their own sandwiches and drinks.People came from all over California. O
29、ne couple drove down from San Francisco. “This is our sixth year here now. We love it,” said the husband. “Its just fantastic to be in the great outdoors, to be among so many books and authors, and to get some very good deals, too.”The idea for the festival occurred years ago, but nobody knew if it

34、, is a man of many solutions, many of them creative, many of them, apparently, also effective. In New York City, only about 50 percent of students manage to graduate in four years. At Bedford Academy, 63 percent of the students qualify for free lunch, a majority of which are being raised by a single
35、 mother and another significant number are being raised by someone other than a parent. Yet close to 95 percent of students graduate, and actually every one of those goes on to college.Mr. Leonard does not achieve those results by admitting only high-testing students into his school. Of the students
36、 arriving with lower test scores, Mr. Leonard says that he is not looking for the students with the highest grades, or even the best behavior. Hes looking for the one who understand his basic mission of discipline and respect, and are willing to devote themselves to his regular training course.The B
37、edford Academy High School is famous for its autonomy. For Mr. Leonard, autonomy means insisting that all entering students spend their Saturday mornings in preparatory classes the summer before they enroll. Autonomy also means an automatic weeklong suspension for any students who “disrespects a fem
38、ale,” said Mr. Leonard. It means requiring struggling students, in the weeks before the Regents exams, to attend studying sessions on Saturday from 9 a.m. until 9 p.m.It means the most senior, experienced teachers, including Mr. Leonard, teach not the schools academic jewels, but the most struggling
39、 students.And autonomy also means the schools teachers administer almost no homework. Instead they emphasize after-school tutoring where the teachers can keep a better eye on whether the student is actually grasping the material.44.【单选题】In Mr. Leonards school, most of the students who dont have to p
40、ay for lunch .A:are adopted childrenB:are parentlessC:are homelessD:have a single parent正确答案:D45.【单选题】What can be a good indication of the Bedford Schools success?A:63 percent of its students go on to college.B:A high percentage of students enjoy free lunch.C:All the graduates from the school go on
41、to college.D:The number of its graduates is twice that of New York High School正确答案:C46.【单选题】What does Mr. Leonard expect from those low-testing students?A:The highest scoresB:The best behaviorC:Respectfulness and disciplineD:Willingness to learn by themselves正确答案:C47.【单选题】The school insists that stu
42、dents should .A:leave the school if they fail to respect a womanB:attend the preparatory classes in the summer before enrollingC:do their homework to review what they have learnedD:come to the school on Sundays正确答案:BPassage FourHave you ever been afraid to talk back when you were treated unfairly?Ha
43、ve you ever bought something just because the salesman talked you into it? Are you afraid to ask someone for a date?Many people are afraid to assert themselves(坚持己见). Dr. Robert Alberti, author of Stand up, Speak Out, and Talk Back, thinks its because of their lack of confidence. “Our structure of o
44、rganization tends to make people distrust themselves,” says Alberti, “Theres always a superior around-a parent, a teacher, a boss-who knows better. These superiors often gain when they keep breaking at your self-image.”But Alberti and other scientists are doing something to help people assert themse
45、lves. They offer “assertiveness training” courses-AT for short. In the AT course people learn that they have a right to be themselves. They learn to speak out and feel good about doing so. They learn to be aggressive without hurting people.In one way, learning to speak out is to overcome fear. A gro
46、up taking an AT course will help the shy person to lose his fear. But AT uses an even stronger motive-the need to share. The shy person speaks out in the group because he wants to tell how he feels.Whether or not you speak up for yourself depends on your self-image. If someone you face is more “impo
47、rtant” than you, you may feel less of a person. You start to doubt your own good sense. You go by the other persons label. But, why should you? AT says you can get to feel good about yourself. And once you do, you can learn to speak out.48.【单选题】People are reluctant to talk back because .A:they have
48、a poor self-imageB:they have not received AT coursesC:they have not grasped communication skillsD:they are not generous enough to share things正确答案:A49.【单选题】According to Dr. Alberti, our organization is constructed to .A:get people to trust their own solutions to problemsB:keep people as knowledgeabl
49、e as their superiorsC:train peoples capacity to speak up for their rightsD:make things more favorable for superiors正确答案:D50.【单选题】One of the objectives of AT courses is to .A:train people to trust othersB:encourage people to share their thoughtsC:tell people of their right to be superiorsD:help peopl
50、e overcome their fear of asserting themselves正确答案:D51.【单选题】Which of the following would be the best title of this passage?A:Protect YourselfB:Try to Speak OutC:Share Your OpinionD:Face Your Superior正确答案:BPassage FiveA wind tunnel is used for testing planes or plane models.
