　　It is interesting to know what people of different nations like to do best．

　　In France, when a woman enters a cafe or restaurant, she is freely discussed, not only about her appearance but about her past and future as well．She invites looks in the street whether she is beautiful or plain．There is no better way for a woman to get back her self-confidence than a walk in the streets of Paris or Marseilles, and women really like that．

　　In Italy, people love talking．They sit about in cafes, exchanging news and discussing politics．They do not hesitate to ask questions about the family, income and private life of anybody who happens to be there．

　　The Swiss eat as a pastime．Ladies walk into a teashop, eat a couple of ice creams and a large piece of chocolate cake, and then leave, complaining about their weight．

　　For the Americans, the greatest fondness is said to be the push of buttons．You push a button in the lift, you push a button for cigarette, chewing gums, stamps, even for a life insurance．You can even push a button to get married and another button to get divorced．

　　In England, waiting in a line is national passion．The English will form a line whether they have the opportunities when the train is practically empty and everybody can have a seat．

Glaucoma（青光眼）is a major cause of blindness around the world, especially in developing countries. The World Health Organization says glaucoma is a greater public health challenge than cataracts（白內(nèi)障）, because the blindness caused by the latter can be cured after operations.
Glaucoma is a disease that makes people around the world lose their sight, and they usually don’t even know they have the disease until it has permanently destroyed at least 40 percent of their sight. The process is usually so painless and subtle（不明顯的）, so people don't notice it. Actually, the simplest medical test can discover it.
“It is the leading cause of blindness in the United States. In Hispanics and in African-Americans, it’s the second leading cause of blindness and so is the case in the Chinese and Indians.” said Dr. Alan Robin, a specialist in treating glaucoma. “The glaucoma we see in sub-Saharan Africa is a much more aggressive blinding disease than the glaucoma we see in Americans or even African- Americans in-the United States.” he said．     ．
Dr. Eric Fleischer also sees these differences at Medstar Washington Hospital Center. “Pretty much anybody who has ancestors in Africa has an increased chance of developing glaucoma.” Age is another thing that may lead to glaucoma, although people of all ages can get it.
Glaucoma is a group of diseases that commonly produce pressure in the eye. An eye is sort of like a watch. And behind the face of the watch, liquid is made. It goes through your pupil（瞳孔）and into the front of the watch between the face and the crystal．There's an area around the edge of the watch that drains（使排出）the liquid. When that drain is blocked, the liquid can't leave the eye as fast as it is produced. The rising pressure within the eye damages and eventually kills the optic（視覺的） nerve. The result is blindness.
Fortunately, if caught early, glaucoma can be controlled. Glaucoma is not curable. But as  researchers worldwide lean more about it, they grow more hopeful that glaucoma can one day be cured or even prevented.
【小題1】In which country is glaucoma the biggest danger to people’s sight?

A．In ChinaB．In IndiaC．In the USAD．In Japan
【小題2】What do the underlined words “these differences”（in Para 4 ）refer to?
A．The differences in regions（地區(qū)）B．The cultural differences
C．The differences in ageD．The physical differences
【小題3】From the passage, we can learn that,            .
A．It is hard for medical tests to discover glaucoma
B．People in developed countries hardly develop glaucoma
C．Glaucoma only causes blindness among old people
D．The research on glaucoma is still going on worldwide

If you want to be a volunteer, you have to answer the following typical questions. Do you want to work with people, animals or machines? Do you want to work indoors or outdoors, directly serve people in need or serve people behind the scenes? Every year, thousands of people in the west offer volunteer service. Volunteering greatly strengthens the community because it helps the old, the young, the weak, the sick, and the disabled and the injured to solve problems.
Volunteers usually help in many different ways. They may give people advice, offer friendship to the young, drive the elderly to church (if up to the driving age), advise kids against drugs, work as assistants in schools or nursing homes, raise funds, plant trees, help out in local libraries and do many other things. Volunteering can be a few hours a week or a few hours a month. Anybody who wants to serve people in need can become a volunteer.
In fact, the art of volunteering is a process of both giving and receiving. Volunteering allows volunteers to meet new people, make new friends and mix with people from all walks of life. Volunteering is an excellent way to experiment and try out new techniques and skills, discover your individual talents and explore career choice.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。

Speaking in public is most people’s least favorite thing. The reason is that we are all afraid of making fool of ourselves.   1.   .

       But stop biting your finger-nails. Public speaking is easy. It’s just plain talking, and you talk all the time. Although I’m basically shy (honest!). I’ve been making speeches and talking on radio and television for more than 30 years. And I can tell you that public speaking is not a “gift” like musical talent , so   2.   .Here are some of the lessons I have learned:

       Your audience is going to go away with one or two of your main ideas．One or two．Not ten or twenty．  3.  ．And if you don't have a clear idea of what you want to say, there's no way your audience will．  4.   —how you are going to open, what major points you want to make and how you're going to close．

       When I do a radio or TV piece, I often write the last sentence first．  5.   ．A strong close is critical; the last thing you say is what your audience will most likely remember．

       The standard length of a audio-visual act is usually 12 minutes．If all those performers singing and dancing their hearts out couldn't go on longer without boring the audience, what makes you think you can?

 

A. Some people are born to be good at making speech

B. Anybody who can talk can speak in public

C. Try to relax yourself before making the speech

D. The more important the speech is, the more frightened we become

E. If you can't express in a sentence or two what you intend to get across, then your speech

is not focused well enough.

F. When you know where you're heading, you can choose any route to get there

G. No matter how long or short your speech is, you've got to get your ideas organized.
