Ⅲ.阅读理解
The British are known for their sense of humour. However, it is often difficult for foreigners to understand their jokes. The main point to remember is that the British often use understatement.
Understatement means saying less than you think or feel. For example, if someone gets very wet in a shower of rain, he might say, “It's a little damp(潮湿的) outside.”Or, if someone is very impolite and shouts at another person, someone else might say, “She isn't exactly friendly.”Understatement is often used in an unpleasant situation or to make another person look silly. Understatement plays an important part in British humour.
Another key to understanding British humour is that the British like to make fun of themselves as well as others. They often laugh about the silly and unpleasant things that happen to our everyday life when someone accidentally falls over in the street. They also like to make jokes about people from different classes of society. They like to make jokes about their accents, the way they dress and the way they behave. What's more, the British love to watch comedies about people who do not know how to behave in society. The comedy series Mr Bean is a good example of this kind of humour.
Mr Bean is the character created by British actor Rowan Atkinson in 1990. Mr Bean doesn't talk often, and instead he uses his body movement and facial expressions to make people laugh. Perhaps what makes Mr Bean so funny is that he does things that adults in the real world cannot do. Mr Bean is popular in many countries round the world because you do not have to speak English to understand the humour. Because of this, many people have become familiar with the British sense of humour.

Ⅳ.七选五
Did you grow up in one culture, your parents came from another, and you are now living in a totally different country? If so, then you are a third?culture kid!
The term “third?culture kid” (or TCK) was coined in the 1960s by Dr Ruth. She first came across this phenomenon when she researched North American children living in India. Caught between two cultures, they form their very own. 1 About 90 percent of them have a university degree, while 40 percent pursue a postgraduate or doctor degree. They usually benefit from their intercultural experience, which helps them to grow into successful academics and professionals.
2 In fact, many hardships may arise from this phenomenon. A third?culture kid may not be able to adapt themselves completely to their new surroundings as expected. Instead, they may always remain an outsider in different host cultures. Max, for example, experienced this fundamental feeling of strangeness throughout his life as a third?culture kid. 3 While this can be a way to create a network of friends all around the world, it can be difficult for a third?culture kid like Max to maintain close friendships and relationships.
For a third?culture kid, it is often easier to move to a new foreign country than to return to their “home” country.After living in Australia and South Korea for many years, Louis finally returned to Turkey as a teenager. But she felt out of place when she returned to the country where she was born. 4 She did not share the same values with her friends' even years after going back home.
While a third?culture kid must let go of(放弃) his/her identity as a foreigner when he/she returns, the home country can prove to be more foreign than anything he/she came across before. The peer group they face does not match the idealized image children have of “home”. 5
As a part of the growing “culture”， third?culture kids may find it a great challenge for them to feel at home in many places.
A．Yet being a third?culture kid is not always easy.
B．In general, they often reach excellent academic results.
C．This often makes it hard for them to form their own identity.
D．However, their parents can help them see the opportunities of a mobile lifestyle.
E．Their experience abroad helps them gain a better understanding of cultural differences.
F．Unlike other teens of her age, she didn't know anything about current TV shows or fashion trends.
G．Additionally, making new friends and saying goodbye to old ones will at some point become routine for a third?culture kid.
语篇导读
本文为说明文，主要介绍了第三文化的孩子的形成、发展、艰苦经历及其面对的困难。随着文化的日趋发展，第三文化的孩子在异国经受着巨大的挑战。
1．解析 B 顺承关系。根据空处下一句可知，他们通常都会在学业上取得优异的成绩，且下文They usually benefit from their intercultural experience中的They usually与B项中的they often相呼应，故选B项。
2．解析 A 总分关系。根据空处下一句可知，该段应是讲第三文化的孩子也会遇到很多困难，故选A项。
3．解析 G 递进关系。根据空处上一句可知，第三文化的孩子要经历一段陌生感的时期，这与G项中要交新朋友和与老朋友说再见相吻合，故选G项。
4．解析 F 诠释关系。根据空处上一句可知，Louis回到自己出生的国家时已不能适应(out of place)，F项中的she didn't know…与空处下一句中的She did not share…构成平行句式，符合语境，故选F项。
5．解析 C 因果关系。根据该段首句中提到的…let go of(放弃) his/her identity可知，第三文化的孩子所面对的同龄人和他们想象中的家乡的同龄人的观念不符，他们很难形成自己的认知，本段首尾呼应，故选C项。
Ⅴ.短文改错
I will never forget my teacher Miss Lee, who ①my English teacher when I was in high school. Miss Lee was ②， pretty and kind－hearted. ③ is hard for me to describe ④ she was like. However, she really had her own personalities. She had us elect our monitor and ⑤ where to go. ⑥， she liked to have us solve problems ⑦ our own. We made a ⑧ great progress quickly in our studies. It wasn't long ⑨ most of us behaved properly because we found she was a good friend who we could depend ⑩.
① 解析 根据when I was in high school可知，此处是在回忆高中时的老师，故用一般过去时。
② 解析 and连接并列成分，此处无比较含义，故用形容词原级。
③ 解析 “It is＋形容词＋for sb to do sth”为固定句型，that不能作形式主语，故将That改为It。
④ 解析 what引导宾语从句并在从句中作like的宾语。how是副词，不能作宾语。
⑤ 解析 and连接elect和decide作had的宾语补足语，根据句意可知，have后接动词原形。have sb do sth让某人做某事。
⑥ 解析 beside在……旁边，为介词；besides除……之外，为副词，此处表示“除……之外”，故用Besides。
⑦ 解析 句意：另外，她喜欢让我们独立解决问题。on one's own独自地，为固定搭配。
⑧ 解析 progress为不可数名词，前面不用冠词修饰。
⑨ 解析 根据句意可知，此处表示“不久就……”，it wasn't long before…表示“过不了多久就……”。
⑩ 解析 depend on依靠；依赖，介词on不能省略。

As a child, I had a thought in my mind that people could move abroad for life. Now it has been the most important part of my life.
Both my aunts had moved abroad before I was born—one to South Africa, the other to Canada, where they raised their own families. I didn't meet any of these relatives until I grew up. Therefore, there was a certain distance between us. However, it also let me have a sense that a different kind of life was possible, and that there were other chances waiting for those willing to look for them. This understanding was made stronger when my close friends moved to California when I was ten.
Just after 2010, I also moved to the US. I was working as a journalist in London with a New York?based publisher at the time. By accident, I got a call telling me my boss was leaving and I indeed wanted to take her job. So my wife and I flew to America. We lived in New York for the next year.
On returning to England, I left my former boss and started a new job. In 2003, we moved to a small fishing town in Spain, where there are many places for fun. Of course, there are also many sorrows, hardships and depression that come from being away from my family and old friends in England.
As I've discovered, living abroad can offer many great joys and opportunities, but it is not always easy. So, if you're considering moving overseas, be ready for it.

Learning a second language fuels children's intelligence and makes their job future brighter. 1 the fact is, in USA, as in many other English speaking countries, speakers of two or more languages are in the 2 . Eighty?four percent of US people are monolingual(speakers of only one language). This leaves a small number who 3 to speak two or more languages.
No matter how proud people are of their cultural roots, to speak anything 4 English is a marker of difference here. That's why fourteen?year?old Umar is 5 when people comment on the fact that he is able to speak Arabic. Umar's mother points out, “In USA, it's not 6 for kids to be bilingual(能说两种语言的人). But, if you speak another language to your children in USA, it is thought that you are not helping them to 7 society.”
But in fact, the general 8 among experts is that learning a second language is good for children. Experts believe that bilinguals—people who speak 9 languages—have a clear learning advantage 10 their monolingual schoolmates. This 11 on how much of each language they can speak, not on which language is used, 12 they are learning Arabic, French, Chinese or any other language.
Vinss Millon, a professor of Foreign Language Training, says, “A lot of studies have 13 that children who speak more than one language sometimes learn one language more 14 ， but in the end they do as well as their monolingual schoolmates, and often better, in other subjects.”
The view is that there is a(n) 15 from the effort of learning another language. A few other 16 agree that “Bilinguals tend to use language better as a whole. They also 17 greater creativity and problem?solving ability, and they learn further languages more easily.”
With all of the benefits, why do we not show more 18 for learning other languages? Parents and teachers 19 in bilingual education say it is pressure from friends at school, general 20 to other languages in English?speaking countries, and problems in the school system that are to blame.

Ⅲ.阅读理解
Body language is much more sincere than what we say. We can easily lie while we talk, but our body always says the truth. If we are in a class or conference and we consider boring what the speaker is saying, we will probably cross our arms, or we will touch our face implying(暗指) that we are judging the speaker.
In a social event we can see who is the most important person in a small group by looking at the tip of the shoe, or at the eyes, to see the degree of like of dislike of a person towards another one. Another good sign is the so?called mirroring that happens when a person unconsciously imitates the postures of the person who is in front of her/him. However, if we see someone sitting on the edge of the sofa, with arms and legs crossed, avoiding eye contact, looking at his watch, or changing posture every thirty seconds, that means this person is feeling very uncomfortable.
Body language is international, but there are some differences due to the different cultures and religions. For example, eye contact is very important in Europe and in the USA, but in some Arabic or Asian countries, looking into the eyes can be considered as a threat or sign of being a “bad woman”. In the same way, in Arabic countries, the left hand is considered “dirty”， so you should never give an object with the left hand. In these countries, men kiss each other hello. Showing the bottom of the shoe is also bad manners among Muslims.
In business relationships, it is better to stick to a hand shaking, as kisses between men are frequent in some countries, in others kisses between women, and in others only man and woman. In some countries there is only a kiss, in others two, or even three or four. The safest thing is to wait until the person in front of you starts greeting, and follow what he/she does. We have to keep in mind that our body language tells many things about us, so we have to control it, especially in business and formal situations.

Ⅱ.阅读理解
How you move and gesture says as much about you as what comes out of your mouth.
Jenny Smith, 34, an assistant vice?president at a bank in New York, was interviewing candidates(应考人) for a position which required a person with good communication skills.
One candidate in particular stood out, but not in a good way. While she could have been very intelligent, her body language sent out very different messages. Her handshake was more of a finger shake, and her eye contact was weak.
To Jenny, what the candidate said didn't matter because her body language said everything: she wasn't suitable for the position. The candidate may have been quite appropriate(合适的), but she didn't manage to get that across. So our body language may not do us justice. But there are some signals which are very common and are worth a thousand words.
For example, a handshake can say much more than “hello, nice to meet you.” The most important part of a handshake is palm?to?palm contact. It's even more important than how strong your handshake is. The palm?to?palm contact makes people seem honest: it seems to say “I am sincere.” A weak handshake—when the palms don't touch—makes you seem unfriendly, insincere.
But people sometimes use body language to give each other the wrong impression. Somebody who has a firm handshake may be pretending to be sincere, and somebody with a weak handshake may just be a bit shy and nothing more.
Body language can also be overdone. While eye contact gives an impression of friendliness, too much eye contact or eye contact which is too intense(极为强烈的) can make people feel uncomfortable.
