填空题Are you always sure you know what people mean when they try to describe their feelings to you? We use both words and gestures to express our feelings, but the problem is that these words and gestures can be interpreted in different ways. It is tree that a smile means the same things in any language. So (31) laughter or crying. There are also a number of striking similarities in the way different animals show the (32) feeling. Does, tigers and humans, for example, often show their teeth when they are angry. This is probably (33) such behavior patterns are inherited rather than (34) . Fear is another emotion that is shown in (35) the same way all over the world. In Chinese and in English fiction, a phrase like 'he went pale and began to tremble' suggests that the man is (36) very afraid or has just had a very nasty shock. However, 'he opened his eyes wide' is used. to suggested anger in Chinese (37) in English it conveys surprise. In Chinese surprise can be described in a phrase like ' they stretched (38) their tongues'. Sticking out your tongue in (39) is an insulting gesture or expresses disgust. Even in the same (40) ,people differ (41) their ability to interpret and express feelings. Experiments in America have shown that women are usually better than men (42) recognizing fear, anger, love and happiness on people's faces. Disgust, contempt and suffering seem to (43) the most difficult emotions for people everywhere either to recognize or to (44) . Other studies have (45) that older people usually find (46) easier to interpret body language (the way people stand or move etc. ) than younger people (47) , and psychologists such as E.G.. Beier have also shown that some people frequently give completely the wrong impression of (48) they feel. For instance, they try to show affection but in fact actually communicate dislike. Or when they want to show interest, they give the impression that they don't care. This can happen even among close friends and members of the same family. In (49) words, what we think we axe communicating through language, voice, face and body movements may be the exact (50) of what other people understand.

填空题To me personally, the most remarkable and, in the long run, the most influential man who was translated was not a Greek. That is because I am interested in the perception of objects in space. And that was a subject about which the Greeks were totally wrong. It was understood for the first time about the year AD 1000 by an eccentric mathematician whom we call Alhazen, who was the one really original scientific mind that Arab culture produced. (66) Alhazen first recognized that we see an object because each point of it directs and reflects a ray into the eye. The Greek view could not explain how an object, my hand say, seems to change size when it moves. In Alhazen's account it is clear that the cone of rays that comes from the outline and shape of my hand grows narrower as I move my hand away from you. (67) And that, and only that, accounts for the difference in size. It is so simple a notion that it is astonishing that scientists paid almost no attention to it for six hundred years. (68) The concept of the cone of rays from object to the eye becomes the foundation of perspective [透视画法]. And perspective is the new idea which now revivifies mathematics. (69) A manuscript of Alhazen's Optics in translation in the Vatican Library in Rome is annotated by Lorenzo Ghiberti, who made the famous bronze perspectives for the doors of the Baptistry in Florence. He was not the first pioneer of perspective--that may have been Filippo Brunelleschi--and there were enough of them to form an identifiable school of the Perspectivi. (70) A. It was a school of thought, for its aim was not simply to make the figures lifelike, but to create the sense of their movement in space.B. The Greeks had thought that light goes from the eyes to the object.C. The excitement of perspective passed into art in north Italy, in Florence and Venice, in the fifteenth century.D. As I move it towards you, the cone of rays that enters our eye becomes larger and subtends a larger angle.E. Above all, we feel that the painter's eye is on the move.F. But artists attended to it long before that, and in a practical way.

填空题（复旦大学2011年试题） A considerable amount of medical research is aimed at identifying risk factors for disease. The rationale behind this work is that where people are informed of their risk, they will happily change their behavior to lower that risk.【1】this is certainly a reasonable assumption, it turns out that things are not quite that simple and straightforward. First of all, health is not necessarily a top priority in everyone's life and, for these people, changing behavior in the interests of health may interfere【2】other, more important matters. Second, the benefits to be derived【3】such changes rarely are immediate or obvious. Usually, improvements in health take place over long periods of time and are quite subtle.【4】, we are all so bombarded with information about the thousands of health hazards to which we are exposed【5】most of us "time out" much of this information. This latter issue is compounded by the fact that much of new information to which we are exposed through the media is exaggerated and, as often as not, is contradicted later by even "newer" information. For these and other reasons, simply knowing about a risk does not necessarily ensure that people will take appropriate steps to【6】it. 【7】when people want to change their behavior, this is not easy to do. For example, the overwhelming majority of smokers in this country want to quit, but【8】great effort very few are able to do so. Most smokers acknowledge, at some level, that health hazards are associated with smoking and most wish that there were a simple and painless way to stop.【9】, the number of people who want to lose weight is very large, but few of these people are able to do it and even【10】are able to maintain such weight losses.

填空题When travelers lack an awareness of (51) time is regulated in a foreign country, they can expect to feel somewhat disoriented. Since most people (52) time for granted, the effects of values, customs, and social etiquette on the use of time are seldom examined. A culture that values achievement and progress will discourage people (53) "wasting" time. Highly efficient business people from these cultures may feel frustrated in a country (54) work proceeds at a slow pace. In religious societies, customs specify times of the day, week, or year for prayer and religious celebrations. If an individual tries to (55) an appointment during a sacred holiday, he or she could unknowingly offend a religious person. Social etiquette determines appropriate times for visits, meetings, and even phone calls. Arriving two hours late for an (56) may be acceptable in one culture, whereas in (57) , keeping someone (58) fifteen minutes may be considered rude. Promptness is important in American business, academic, and social settings. The (59) of punctuality is taught to young children in school. Tardy slips and the use of bells signal to the child that punctuality and time itself are to be respected. An amusing report of a school child's experience with time (60) in a recent newspaper article: " (61) a child, my mother used to tell me (62) crucial it was to be at school (63) . the first bell rang. Preparation for my 'on-time' appearance began the night before. I was directed to go to bed early so I could wake (64) wide-eyed at 7 a.m. with enough time to get ready. Although I usually managed to watch my share of TV cortoons, I knew that in one hour I had to get dressed, eat breakfast, (65) my teeth, (66) my hair, and be on my way to school or I would be violating an important rule of Mom's, the school's or of the world's. It was hard to tell which." People who keep appointments are (67) dependable. If people are late to job interviews, appointments, or classes, they are often viewed (68) unreliable and irresponsible. In the business world, "time is money" and companies may fine their executives for tardiness to business meetings. Of course, it is not always possible to be punctual. Social and business etiquette also provides rules for late arrivals. Calling on the telephone if one is going to be more than a few minutes late for scheduled appointments is considered polite and is often expected. Keeping a date or a friend waiting beyond ten to twenty minutes is considered rude. On the other (69) , arriving thirty minutes (70) to some parties is acceptable.

填空题Woody Allen, in earlier, funnier days, told a joke about two women in a resort in the Catskills complaining about the cuisine: "The food at this place is really terrible," says one. "Yeah, and such small portions," replies her friend. 1 They are dangerous things, their production and transport often unpleasant, the less visible environmental consequences of their use worse still. And there is not enough of them. The current boom in "unconventional" gas seems likely to provide good news on both fronts. 2 Oil is found in relatively few places, and its energy density, pumpability and ease of use in internal-combustion engines make it particularly well suited as a transportation fuel. Coal is found in many more places and it cannot be pumped around, but can be crushed and burned and so produces baseload power. Gas, typically found and exploited in the same sort of places as oil, is easily moved around through plumbing but is not, usually, seen as a transportation fuel. 3 Other innovations, such as producing liquefied natural gas from offshore sources and shipping it to its destinations directly, and technologies that might allow exploitation of the natural gas that is frozen into some permafrosts, further increase the scope for new production. 4 Coal, unlike oil, is hard to embargo: and an obvious consequence of the changes in gas production is that they make gas supply a less potent political tool. 5 But countries can benefit from unconventional reserves without actually having any. More producers and a larger capacity to ship the fuel in its liquefied form will make gas a more fungible commodity. That continuing trend will mean that very few countries will ever be locked into a single source. A. Now new drilling technologies pioneered in America are allowing gas to be extracted from more types of rock, and thus from much more widespread sources. B. In Europe, where Russia has used supply cut-offs to put pressure on neighbouring Ukraine, discoveries of shale gas in eastern Europe could diversify supply in a useful way. C. All told, this transition to more plentiful, diverse and widespread reserves in effect makes gas a bit more like coal, and a bit less like oil. D. Gas that, s now being unconventionally extracted isn"t lying there underground in big natural pools near the earth"s surface, and it"s not easy to collect. E. Thus the current thinking about fossil fuels. F. The three conventional forms of fossil carbon—oil, coal and gas—differ both in the way the earth stores them and the way its people use them.
