Perhaps the most famous theory, the study of body movement, was suggested by Professor Ray Birdwhistell. He believes that physical appearance is often culturally programmed. In other words, we learn our looks--- we are not born with them.
A baby has generally informed face features. A baby, according to Birdwhistell, learns where to set the eyebrows by looking at those around--- family and friends. This helps explain why the people of some areas of the US looks much alike.
New Englanders or Southerners have certain common face features that can not be explained by genetics (遺傳學(xué)). The exact shape of the mouth is not set at birth, it is learned after. In fact, the final mouth shape is not formed until well after new teeth are set. For many, this can be well into grown-ups. A husband and wife together for a long time often come to look somewhat alike. We learn our looks from those around us.
This is perhaps why in a single country there are areas where people smile more than those in other areas. In the US, for example, the south is the part of the country where the people smile most frequently. In New England they smile less, and in the western part of New York States still less. Many southerners find cities such as New York cold and unfriendly, partly because people in Madison Avenue smile less than people on Peachtree Street in Atlanta, Georgia. People in largely populated areas also smile and greet each other in public less than people in small towns do.
1.Ray Birdwhistell believes that physical appearance ___________.
A.has little to do with culture B.has much to do much culture
C.is ever changing D.is different from place to place
2.According to the passage, the final mouth shape is formed _________.
A.before birth B.as soon as one’s teeth are newly set
C.some time after new teeth are set D.around 15 years old
3.Ray Birdwhistell can tell what area of the US a person is from by _______.
A.how much he or she smiles B.how he or she raise his or her eyebrows
C.what he or she likes best D.the way he or she talks
4.People who live _________ are more friendly.
A.in largely populated areas B.in New York City
C.in the country D.in the North

California—Upset by the war in Iraq, Julia Wilson expressed her anger and impatience with
President Bush last spring on her web page on MySpace.com . She posted a picture of the president, wrote “Kill Bush ” across the top and drew a sword stabbing his outstretched hand. She later replaced her page after learning in her eighth-grade history class that such threats are a federal offense.
It was too late, Federal authorities had found the page and placed Wilson on their checklist. They finally reached her this week in her biology class. The 14—year—old was taken out of class Wednesday and questioned for about 15 minutes by two Secret Service agents. The incident has upset her parents, who said the agents should have included them when questioning their daughter.
The teenager said the agents’ questioning led her to tears. “I wasn’t dangerous,” said Wilson, an honor student who describes herself as politically enthusiastic. “I’m a peace-loving person. I’m against the war in Iraq. I’m not going to kill the president.”
Her mother, Kirstie Wilson, said two agents showed up at the family’s home Wednesday afternoon, questioned her and promised to return once her daughter was home from school.
After they left, Kirstie Wilson sent a next message to her daughter’s call phone, asking her to come straight home and telling her that two men from the secret service wanted to talk with her.
But moments later, Kirstie Wilson received a text message from her daughter saying agents had pulled her out of class.
Julia Wilson said the agents threatened her, saying she could be sent to court for making the threat. “They yelled at me a lot,” she said. “They were unnecessarily mean.”
Wilson and her parents said the agents were justified in questioning her over her MySpace.com posting. But they said the agents went too far by not waiting until she was out of school and the agents should have more quickly figured out they weren’t dealing with a real danger.
Assistant Principal Paul Robinon said the agents gave him the impression the girl’s mother knew they were planning to question her daughter at school. There is no legal requirement that parents be notified.
“This has been an on-going problem.” said Ann Brick, a lawyer with the American Civil Liberties union in San Francisco.
Former governors Pete Wilson and Gray Davis vetoed(否決) bills that would have required that parents give permission or be present when their children are questioned at school by law enforcement officers.
1.Julia Wilson was questioned because .
A.she wanted to kill President Bush
B.she set up the website Myspace.com
C.the agents thought she might be a threat to the federal
D.she was a peace-loving person
2.What can we infer from the text?
A.Julia Wilson will be put into prison for making a threat.
B.Kirtie Wilson thought it wrong to question her daughter in school without them.
C.Assistant principal thought there was no need to inform Julia’s parents when questioning her.
D.Ann Brick believes that teenagers should not be politically enthusiastic.
3.What does the underlined word “mean” mean in the text?
A.cruel and violent B.poisonous
C.kind-hearted D.unfair
4.The author wrote this story mainly to .
A.struggle against the war in Iraq started by the US
B.discuss whether parents should be included when children are questioned
C.warn teenagers not to post web pages on websites
D.criticize the former governors who vetoed the bill

春節(jié)貼年畫(huà)(pasting New Year Prints)的風(fēng)俗源自于往房子外面的門(mén)上貼門(mén)神(Door Gods)的傳統(tǒng)。隨著木質(zhì)雕刻品的出現(xiàn)，年畫(huà)包含了更廣泛的主題，最出名的就是門(mén)神，三大神—福神、薪神和壽神(Three Gods of Blessing, Salary and Longevity)，寓意著莊稼豐收、家畜興旺和慶祝春節(jié)。年畫(huà)的四大產(chǎn)地分別是蘇州桃花塢，天津楊柳青，河北武強(qiáng)和山東濰坊?，F(xiàn)在中國(guó)農(nóng)村仍然保持著貼年畫(huà)的傳統(tǒng)，而在城市里很少有人貼年畫(huà)。
答案
作文范文：
The human being differs from the wild beast in that the latter is liable to have a hostile view of others and interact in an unreasonable and aggressive manner. Primitive humans might have acted in such fashion, but civilized humans should cultivate more appropriate behaviors.
In the drawing above, a man carrying a large load accidentally steps on a woman's foot. Given that he gracefully apologizes, the woman both accepts his apology and assures him not to worry.
The man and woman depicted interact with each other in a courteous and compassionate manner. The woman understands the man did not intentionally step on her foot, and therefore whether or not she is in pain, she does not attack or blame him. Because she is able to view the situation from his perspective, conflict is diverted. Mutual understanding such as this is a fundamental aspect of civilized society.
Some people tend to think the worst of others and become angry over even the smallest of matters, regardless of how their own actions are disturbing in turn. Such intolerance only leads to more conflict. Disrespecting or mistreating,people not only inflicts pain upon others, but can also harm one's own conscienceand attitude.
Having compassion for others is an important facet of social intercourse. Once one strives to understand the experience and perspective of another, one can avoid much trouble and conflict, thus making life more peaceful and just for all.

人類和野獸的區(qū)別就在于后者傾向于相互仇視，交往時(shí)不講道理且好斗。原始人也許會(huì)如此行事，但文明人應(yīng)該養(yǎng)成更得體的舉止。

上圖中的先生和女士詮釋了在與人交往時(shí)應(yīng)有的禮貌和富有同情心的態(tài)度。這位女士知道他并不是有意要踩她的腳，所以無(wú)論疼不疼，她都不會(huì)攻擊或是埋怨這位先生。因?yàn)樗茉O(shè)身處地地看待這件事情，一場(chǎng)沖突就避免了。像這樣的相互理解是構(gòu)成文明社會(huì)的基本方面。
一些人往往把別人想得特別壞，為點(diǎn)雞毛蒜皮的事就大發(fā)雷霆，而全然不顧他們自己的行為是多么讓別人討厭。這種偏狹只會(huì)導(dǎo)致更多的沖突，對(duì)人無(wú)禮或粗暴不僅會(huì)給別人帶來(lái)不愉快，而且會(huì)損害自己的道德水準(zhǔn)和儀態(tài)。寬厚是社交中重要的一面，一旦一個(gè)人努力去理解別人的做法和看法，他就會(huì)避免許多麻煩和沖突，而這會(huì)讓所有人的生活都變得更美好。

The custom of pasting New Year Prints in Spring Festival originated from the tradition of pasting Door Gods on the external doors of the houses. With the creation of board carvings, New Year paintings cover a wide range of subjects. The most famous ones are Door Gods and Three Gods of Blessing, Salary and Longevity, signifying the abundant harvest of crops, the prosperity of domestic animals and the celebration of Spring Festival. Four producing areas of New Year Prints are Taohuawu of Suzhou, Yangliuqing of Tian Jing, Wuqiang of Hebei and Weifang of Shandong. Now the tradition of pasting New Year paintings is still kept in rural China, while it is seldom followed in cities.
