34、n brains differ considerably，some being more capable than others.But no matter how good a brain he has to begin with，an individual will have a low order of intelligence unless he has opportunities to learn.So the second factor is what happens to the individual－the sort of environment in which he is

35、reared.If an individual is handicapped environmentally，it is likely that his brain will fail to develop and he will never attain the level of intelligence of which he is capable. The importance of environment in determining an individual's intelligence can be demonstrated by the case history of th

45、out you. Many people believe in the“scientific method”of understanding the world，so they look for facts and evidence when you tell them something new.This may seem odd to students whose cultures emphasize feelings or emotions，but people are not rude if they say，“Show me”or“Prove it”． Loud conversa

46、tions usually mean people are angry.Most conversations are moderate in volume with few gestures.Do not speak too loudly or too quietly，and keep your hands under control.When you have communication difficulties，you may think it is because of spoken or written language.However，many misunderstandings h

48、全文可知，本文介紹跟美國人交談時應該注意的問題，也就是美國人的交談習俗。B項僅是文章的細節(jié)；C項偏離了文章的中心；D項概念過大。 答案　A 44．Which of the following would be an open topic of American conversations? A．What one feels about his new colleague. B．The war in Iraq. C．Story of a sports star. D．One's income. 解析　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)常識可排除D項，美國人的談話一般不涉及個人隱私的問題，

49、如年齡、婚姻、收入等。從第一段可知，人們閑談的話題其中包括體育方面的內容，而政治、宗教以及個人感情則不是公開談論的話題。 答案　C 45．What should you do if Americans say，“Show me”or“Prove it”？ A．Explain to them that your cultures emphasize feelings or emotions. B．Try to give them as many facts as possible. C．Tell them you don't understand the“scientific

52、seven and a half centuries.Every year，on June 19th，a professor from the University of Pisa climbs to the bell tower and measures the increase in the slant(傾斜) with special instruments.And every year the professor makes the same report：the tower has learned a bit—about an inch more.Last summer(the ye

53、ar of 2004)，the 125-foot-high tower was leaning an incredible 15 feet out of line.Scientists say that unless a way is found to stop the slant，the tower will collapse in less than 80 years. The tower is leaning because the soft soil of Pisa will not support it.Its foundation is sinking into the soil

54、 at an angle，causing the tower to lean.Since a slight shake could make the foundation loose，the ringing of the tower's bells was forbidden in 1959.And trucks are not allowed to pass in the neighborhood of the tower for this same reason. 47．This passage is mainly about ________. A．a famous tower t

55、hat leans B．a plan for saving the tower C．the history of the Tower D．the cause of the tower's slant 解析　主旨大意題。文章主要介紹塔的一些情況，而不是關于a plan for saving the tower，更不是單純說明the cause of the tower's slant。 答案　A 48．This summer the tower may be found to be in the slant by ________ according to the

56、passage. A．more than one inch B．exactly one inch C．more than fifteen feet D．exactly fifteen feet 解析　推理判斷題。見第一段第三句、第四句“And every year...about an inch more”，“Last summer...15 feet out of line”可斷定“this summer...of...more than fifteen feet”。 答案　C 49．Truck traffic has been forbidden in the

57、 neighborhood of the tower ________. A．to protect all the visitors B．to prevent the bell in the tower C．to protect the foundation D．to keep the soil at the tower 解析　推理判斷題。見第二段最后兩句。 答案　C 50．According to the way it is written，this passage is more like ________. A．a funny history story

58、　 B．a serious tour advertisement C．an exciting announcement 　 D．a common science report 解析　推理判斷題。根據(jù)全文可知D為最佳答案。 答案　D E A different sort of generation gap is developing in the workplace.Someone－specifically the father-daughter team of Larry and Meagan Johnson－h(huán)as figured out that on some Ame

59、rican job sites，five generations are working side by side. In their new book about generations in the workplace the pair argue that while such an age difference adds a lot of texture and a variety of life experiences，it can also bring tensions and conflicts. The Johnsons are human-resource trainer

60、s and public speakers.Dad Larry is a former health-care executive；daughter Meagan is a onetime high-level sales manager. Here are the oldest and youngest of the five generations they identify： They call the oldest group Traditionals，born before 1945.They were heavily influenced by the lessons of t

61、he Great Depression and World War Ⅱ.They respect authority, set a high standard of workmanship，and communicate easily and confidently.But they're also stubbornly independent.They want their opinions heard. At the other extreme are what the Johnsons call Linksters，born after 1995 into today's more c

You won't find many 15-year olds in the offices of large companies，except as volunteers，of course，but quite old and quite young workers do come together in sales environments like bike shops and ice cream s

63、tores. The Johnsons，Larry and Meagan，represent a generation gap themselves in their work with jobsite issues.The Johnsons' point is that as the average lifespan continues to rise and retirement dates get delayed because of the tight economy，people of different generations are working side by side，m

64、ore often bringing with them very different ideas about company loyalty and work values. The five generations are heavily influenced by quite different events，social trends，and the cultural phenomena of their times.Their experiences shape their behavior and make it difficult，sometimes，for managers

65、to achieve a strong and efficient workplace. Larry and Meagan Johnson discuss all this in greater detail in a new book，“Generations，Inc.：From Boomers to Linksters－Managing the Friction Between Generations at Work.”published by Amacom Press，which is available in all good bookstores from this Friday.

66、 【語篇解讀】 本文通過介紹一對父女出版的新書向我們解釋了現(xiàn)代社會出現(xiàn)的一種新現(xiàn)象：不同的幾代人可能在同一個公司上班，而他們之間的這種“代溝”導致了他們在工作時觀點不一…… 51．The type of generation gap in Paragraph 1 refers to the difference in beliefs________. A．between managers and workers B．among family members C．among employees D．between older and newer companies 解析　推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第一段第一句話中的in the workplace和該段最后一句話中的five generations are working side by side，可知文章中討論的generation gap是有關在同一公司上班的員工之間的不同觀念。因此C項正確。 答案　C 52．Which o
