Researchers are often interested in how culture changes over time. All cultures go through periods of change and some cultures change faster than others. For example, in the past 10 years, Chinese culture has changed rapidly as western products have become popular. Other countries, such as France, have created rules to prevent their culture from changing too quickly.
Even though cultures change at different paces, the causes of cultural change are quite similar around the world. One of these is technology and medicine. In the United States the invention and development of birth control pills and other measures helped parents to limit the size of their families. As a result, families grew smaller and parents could give more attention to fewer children. On the other hand, new technology has also created emotional distance among families.
Cultures also change when they come into contact with other cultures. Immigration, for example, often results in cultural change for both immigrants and the host culture. Immigrants often bring with them different ideas, food, music, language, and manners when they move to a new culture. In Canada, for example, the government has a policy of multiculturalism where immigrants are encouraged to share their background cultures with Canadians while adopting and accepting Canadian culture.
Cultural change can occur due to larger events. For example, economic depression, war, and disaster can endanger societies, which must adapt to these challenges and events. Because of these changes in society, ideas and ways of life also affect the entire culture. For example, during World War Ⅱ, many American men were sent far off to fight. Consequently, women were suddenly needed to work in the factories. As a result of this change, it is no longer culturally acceptable to believe that they should not have the right to work.
1.In the first paragraph, which country has experienced rapid cultural change in the last decade
A.Canada. B.China.
C.France. D.America.
2.What will probably be talked about following the last paragraph
A.Another reason for cultural change.
B.A discussion of immigration policy in France.
C.Another cultural change caused by World War Ⅱ.
D.Some examples of highly successful working women.
3.What would be a good title for this passage
A.Immigration Policy and Culture
B.Immigration and Culture
C.New Technology and Family Culture
D.Theories of Cultural Change
B
A culture's values can be mirrored by its humor. Humor has been evaluated by many great minds such as Thomas Hobbes, who disliked humor, “Laughter is nothing else but sudden glory arising from some sudden thought of feeling far better than others.” He thought humor to be a negative quality of human narrow mindedness.
However, Mordechai Gordon, Ph. D of Education, insists, “Humor allows us to view the world from an angle that is amusing rather than serious.” I agree with Gordon. Learning to look at the world through humor is important.
In the United States, every four years an election occurs. Without humor as a way to express their feelings, how else would Americans keep from clawing their eyes out and going the way of lemming?Television shows like “The Daily Show” have become important parts of American culture. They are mothering the masses by metaphorically (隐喻地) taking politics into our mouths. They make politics fun.
Of course, politics is only one type of humor. Social humor helps people through the twists and turns of the human condition. American pop culture promotes (促进) an unhealthy self image. On the topic of self image, Hari Kondabolu stands out. He has a joke about the popular musical group “The Pussycat Dolls”, describing their hit song “Don't Cha” as a negative representation of women. He points out an obvious offence in American culture.
A study from Loyola University of Maryland has shown that humor is one determining factor for selecting a mating partner. Amongst other things, mates look for an outstanding funny bone in a potential partner.
Of course, humor is not always used for good purposes. Humor can be linked to vulgarity (庸俗) and racism, but, like everything else, it has potential to unite human beings by allowing us to laugh at ourselves, our failures and our connection with one another.
Though life may seem tough and depressing at times, all I have to do is look in the mirror at my increased wrinkles (皱纹) to know that there is a comedy out there that even Chaplin wasn't aware of.
With that in mind, remember to laugh with humanity and sometimes at humanity.
4.Hobbes believed that humor .
A.was only a way to laugh at others to make oneself feel better
B.resulted in narrow mindedness of human beings
C.had the power to mirror personal glory and national values
D.was for people to view the world from another angle
5.What is the author's attitude towards political humor
A.Worried. B.Disappointed.
C.Curious. D.Appreciative.
6.The fourth paragraph is developed mainly .
A.by example B.by process
C.by comparison D.by classification
7.What can we learn from the last two paragraphs
A.Chaplin wasn't aware of being laughed at.
B.The author feels helpless and sad about getting older.
C.Never be the one who laughs at other people.
D.The author is determined to face life with a sense of humor.

Differences do set us apart,but we often forget that we are all humans,and our culture is much more representative(有代表性的) of our differing environment than truly different people.Here are some tips on how to understand and admire cultural differences.
 1  In almost every single case,the only thing required to bridge cultural differences is an introduction.This isn’t always easy,but the best thing to do is make an effort—go to the international folk music festival,eat in a restaurant where English isn’t the first language,and say hello to the new family down the street.
Invite other cultures into your home.2  Some people open their homes to exchange students with apps like Air BnB,while others might work through a church or charity to help traveling groups.Even easier,you can simply invite people from other cultures over for dinner. 3 
Read as much about the local culture as you can before arriving.It is irresponsible to arrive in a new place without knowing how things usually run.You may get immediately shocked upon landing,which can make it harder to accept the culture later on. 4  Read online,check some books,and generally arrive well-informed.Having some knowledge beforehand will help with any culture shock.
Share parts of your own culture and life to encourage others to share theirs.One of the best things to bring while traveling is a set of photos from home,allowing you to bring people into your own life and culture from anywhere. 5  And learning is the key to understanding and,finally,acceptance.
A.You can accept travelers or exchange students.
B.Therefore,be ready for some shocks or changes in the real world.
C.Seek out experiences,foods,and people who seem foreign to you.
D.Get out to see new places,pushing your comfort zone as much as possible.
E.Giving a little bit of yourself is the best way to learn a little bit about others.
F.You’ll be surprised how much most people want to meet and talk to foreigners.
G.The best way to understand and admire cultural differences is over food and friendship.
