单选题The human body has developed its millions of nerves to be highly aware of what goes on both inside and outside of it. This helps us adjust to the outside world. Without our nerves and our brain, which is a system of nerves, we couldn"t know what is happening. But we pay for our sensitivity(敏感度). We can feel pain when the slightest thing is wrong with any part of our body. The history of torture (折磨) is based on the human body being open to pain. But there is a way to handle pain. Look at the Indian fakir(苦行僧) who sits on a bed of nails. Fakirs can put a needle right through an arm, and feel no pain. This ability that some humans have developed to handle pain should give us ideas about how the mind can deal with pain. The big thing in withstanding pain is our attitude toward it. If the dentist says, "This will hurt a little," it helps us to accept the pain. By staying relaxed, and by treating the pain as an interesting sensation, we can handle the pain without falling apart. After all, although pain is an unpleasant sensation, it is still a sensation, and sensations are the stuff of life.

单选题Any corporation can"t be set up because they don"t want to make profits.

单选题Sometimes, people simply do not realize they are being ill mannered. Take Ted, for example. He prides himself on speaking his mind, and has something to say on everything. But his frankness is often extremely embarrassing. He is incapable of saying, "I thought that last advertising campaign had a lot of good ideas in it, but perhaps next time we could give the copy more vitality (活力)." Instead, he would say, "That campaign was a disaster. A child of three could have done better!" The fact that he is often right does not help. Other employees dislike his manner even more, but he is too insensitive to notice. Another character among the list of ill-mannered employees is Sally, who seems to regard just being at work as a severe punishment. Everything is done unwillingly. Asking her to do a task beyond her basic job description is often not worth the trouble. It will be done, but only half-heartedly. Fergus is just the opposite. He shows an over-familiarity to his boss. When an important visitor is shown into the manager"s office, Fergus cannot take the hint and leave. Instead he will attempt to take part in the conversation, declaring, "You can talk in front of me. Henry and I don"t have many secrets, do we?" Over the years Fergus has fallen behind his former equal. But he seeks to maintain the same close relationship that he imagines existed in their younger days.

单选题Cycle-cross is a cross-country bicycle racing in open and usually quite rough country with riders often forced to dismount and carry their bicycles. The sport, originated early in the 20th century in France, but became prominent in the 1950s (the British Cycle-Cross Association was founded in 1954). Originally as a European sport, cycle-cross became popular throughout Western Europe and in the United States . World championships were initiated in 1925; by 1950 these were recognized by the Union Cyclist International (International Cyclists" Union). After 1967 amateur and professional classes were officially separated in competition. The 24-kilometre cycle-cross course, often involving laps, is usually completed in 60 minutes. A course typically includes obstacles such as ditches, mud, fallen trees, streams, flight of stairs, fences and gates; artificial hurdles are added to insufficiently challenging natural courses. Cycle-cross races are usually held from September to March, adding winter weather hazards to the challenge. There is a massed start with the field assembling not more than two abreast. Helpers are often stationed around the course with spare bicycles in case the original machine encounters mechanical difficulties or becomes too weighted down by mud picked up to the course.

单选题 (A) When you learn a foreign language you must learn more than just the words and the grammar. To communicate successfully in speech, you must also learn the non-verbal language, or "body language" of that culture. "Body language" is a term used to describe facial expressions, gestures, and other movements of the body that send messages. This means of communication is so important that we may actually say more with our movements than we do with words. Unconsciously, everyone understands the importance of body language. That's why we stand on tiptoe (脚尖) in a crowded room to see a speaker's face and hands, even though we may be able to hear him very clearly. For some messages, words are not enough. Speaking a foreign language is sometimes difficult because we may not understand the non-verbal signals of another culture, or they may mean something very different from what they mean in our culture. For example, nodding the head up and down is a gesture that may communicate a different message in different parts of the world. In North America it means "I agree. " In the Middle East nodding the head down means "I agree" and up means "I disagree. " In a conversation among Japanese it often simply means "I'm listening. " One Japanese student in the U.S. learned the difference the hard way. While speaking with a salesman the student nodded his head politely to show that he was paying attention. The next day the salesman brought a new washing machine to the student's apartment. Eye contact is also meaningful, but it, too, can mean different things in different countries. In some Spanish-speaking countries, children show respect to an older person by not looking directly into the person's eyes during a conversation. In other cultures, looking into a person's eyes is expected. For example, if you don't do it in the U.S., people may think you are afraid or angry. In the Middle East, direct eye contact during a conversation is more continuous than in many other parts of the world. People who are not used to this may feel uncomfortable.
