【題目】Culture in general is concerned with beliefs and values on the basis of which people explain experiences and behaviors, individually or in groups. Generally speaking, culture refers to a group or community with which you share common experiences that shape the way you understand the world.

The same person, thus, can belong to several different cultures depending on his or her birthplace, nationality, ethnicity, family status, gender, age, language, education, physical condition, religion, profession, place of work and so on.

Culture is often at the root of communication challenges. Exploring historical experiences and the ways in which various cultural groups have related to each other is important in opening channels for cross-cultural communication. Becoming more aware of cultural differences, as well as exploring cultural similarities, can help you communicate with others more effectively. Next time you find yourself in a confusing situation, ask yourself how culture may be shaping your own reactions, and try to see the world from the others point of view.

寫作內(nèi)容:

1. 用約30個單詞寫出上文概要;

2. 用約120個單詞發(fā)表你的觀點,內(nèi)容包括:

1) 你如何看待文化多樣性(cultural diversity) ?

2) 我們應(yīng)該如何解決文化差異方面的問題 ?

寫作要求:

1.在作文中可以使用親身經(jīng)歷或虛構(gòu)的故事,也可以參閱材料的內(nèi)容,但不能直接引用文中原句。

2.不必寫標(biāo)題。

3.不能出現(xiàn)真實姓名和班級。

【答案】

Culture is mainly about beliefs and values that people in a certain region share. Knowing more about culture differences can help us achieve effective communication with people from different cultures.

In my opinion, culture diversity can bring us lots of benefits. For one thing, it makes our world more colorful. How boring our planet would be if there were only one culture ! For another, it can lead to a higher level of human civilization.

How should we solve problems with culture differences ? First of all, we need to have an open mind to accept them by looking for aspects in common. Secondly, we must respect them. As the saying goes, When in Rome do as the Romans do. we must act according to locals customs and habits wherever we go. Last but not least, were supposed to learn from different cultures. There is no doubt that each culture has its own advantages.

Scientists have discovered that1(stay) in the cold could help us lose weight. Researchers at the University of California found that exposure to the cold increases levels of a protein that helps form brown fat--the type of fat that produces heat and keeps us warm. Brown fat burns energy,2helps us lose weight. White fat stores extra energy, which results3weight gain. The researchers said that because air conditioning and heating give us constant,4(comfort) temperatures, our body’s need for brown fat has decreased. They found that: “Outdoor workers in northern Finland who5(expose) to cold temperature have6significant amount of brown fat when7(compare) to same-aged indoor workers.” The research was conducted on two different control groups of mice.8group was injected with the protein that helps create brown fat. This group later gained 30% less weight after both groups were fed high-fat diets. The researchers say this could be good news in the fight against obesity. People who are obese have9(low) levels of brown fat than thinner people. Head researcher Hei Sook Sul said, “This protein could become an important target for research into the treatment and prevention of obesity and obesity-related diseases.” She added, “If you can somehow increase levels of this protein, you could10(possible) lose more weight even if eating the same amount of food.”

【題目】Scientists are learning new things about Antarctica, the coldest place on Earth. For example, the Antarctic ice sheet is shrinking. A new study found that summer ice loss in parts of Antarctica was at its highest level in 1,000 years. The study showed that Antarctic ice was melting mostly from below ice shelves, where the water is warmer than the ice.

Eric Rignot is an earth system expert at the University of California, Irvine. He also works for the American space agency, NASA. There he serves as senior research scientist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, also in California. He says ice melting from below is responsible for 55 percent of the shelf loss from 2003 to 2008. That is a much higher rate than scientists thought earlier.

Professor Rignot and his team used satellite observations, radar and computer models to measure features above the ice to learn what was going on below.

The measurements show differences from one area to the next around the continent. The major ice shelves are called Ross, Filchner and Ronne. They make up two-thirds of Antarctica’s ice shelves. But they are responsible for only 15 percent of the melting ice.

The professor says even small changes, like changes in ocean flow driven by wind, can make a huge difference in the melting of the ice shelf.

Sixty percent of the Earth’s fresh water is held in the huge Antarctic ice sheet. Professor Rignot says the study will help experts predict how the continent reacts to warmer ocean waters and helps to cause rising sea levels around the world. The study was published in the journal Science.

【1】 What’s the main idea of the passage?

A. the Antarctic ice sheet is shrinking

B. the coldest place on earth

C. the major Antarctica’s ice shelves

D. the Atlantic Ocean are changing

【2】How did Eric Rignot and his team do the research?

A. He serves as senior research scientist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

B. Small changes, like changes in ocean flow driven by wind, can make a huge difference in the melting of the ice shelf.

C. They used satellite observations, radar and computer models to know the things happening below the ice.

D. They melted 55% of the Antarctica’s ice to prove their theory is right.

【3】Which is true of the following statements?

A. Ice melting from below is responsible for 35 percent of the shelf loss from 2003 to 2008.

B. Sixty percent of the Earth’s fresh water is contained in the huge Antarctic ice sheet.

C. The major ice shelves are called Ross, Filchner and Ronne, which make up one-third of Antarctica’s ice shelves.

D. Summer ice loss in Antarctica was at its highest level in 1,000 years.
