Mary responded in typical teenage fashionFrom that moment on, the very last thing I ever thought about doing was taking a typing course, she recalls.The show business thing worked out, of courseIn her career, Mary won many awardsOnly recently, when she began to write Growing Up Again, did she regret ignoring her morn, I dont know how to use a computer, she admits.Unlike her 1995 autobiography, After All, her second book is less about life as an award-winning actress and more about living with diabetes （糖尿病）All the money from the book is intended for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation （JDRF）, an organization she serves as international chairmanI felt there was a need for a book like this, she says.I didnt want to lecture, but I wanted other diabetics to know that things get better when were self-controlled and do our part in managing the disease.But she hasnt always practiced what she teachesIn her book, she describes that awful day, almost 40 years ago, when she received two pieces of life-changing newsFirst, she had lost the baby she was carrying, and second, tests showed that she had diabetesIn a childlike act, she left the hospital and treated herself to a box of doughnuts （甜甜圈）Years would pass before she realized she had to grow up-again-and take control of her diabetes, not let it control herOnly then did she kick her three-pack-a-day cigarette habit, overcome her addiction to alcohol, and begin to follow a balanced diet.Although her disease has affected her eyesight and forced her to the sidelines of the dance floor, she refuses to fall into self-pityEverybody on earth can ask, why me? about something or other, she insistsIt doesnt do any goodNo one is immune （免疫的） to heartache, pain, and disappointmentsSometimes we can make things better by helping othersIve come to realize the importance of that as Ive grown up this second timeI want to speak out and be as helpful as I can be.61Why did Mary feel regretful?AShe didnt achieve her

know from the last paragraph?AMary feels pity for herself.BMary has recovered from her disease.CMary wants to help others as much as possible.DMary determines to go back to the dance floor.CPeople from East Asia tend to have more difficulty than those from Europe in distinguishing facial expressions-and a new report published online in Current Biology explains why.Rachael Jack, University of Glasgow researcher, said that rather than scanning evenly（均匀的） across a face as Westerners do, Easterners fix their attention on the eyes.We show that Easterners and Westerners look at different face features to read facial expressions, Jack saidWesterners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure, whereas Easterners favor the eyes and neglect （忽略） the mouth.According to Jack and her colleagues, the discovery shows that human communication of emotion is more complex than previously believedAs a result, facial expressions that had been considered universally recognizable cannot be used to reliably convey emotion in cross-cultural situations.The researchers studied cultural differences in the recognition of facial expressions by recording the eye movements of 13 Western Caucasian and 13 East Asian people while they observed pictures ofexpressive faces and put them into categories: happy, sad, surprised, fearful, disgusted, angry, or neutralThey compared how accurately participants read those facial expressions using their particular eye movement strategies.It turned out that Easterners focused much greater attention on the eyes and made significantly more errors than did WesternersThe cultural difference in eye movements that they show is probably a reflection of cultural difference in facial expressions, Jack saidOur data suggest that whereas Westerners use the whole face to convey emotion, Easterners use the eyes more and mouth less.In short, the data show that facial expressions are not universal signals of human emotionFrom here on, examining how cultural factors have diversified these basic social skills will help our understanding of human emotionOtherwise, when it comes to communicating emotions across cultures, Easterners and Westerners will find themselves lost in translation.66The discovery shows that Westerners .Apay equal attention to the eyes and the mouthBconsider facial expressions universally reliableCobserve the eyes and the mouth in different waysDhave more difficulty in recognizing facial expressions67What were the people asked to do in the study?ATo make a face at each other BTo get their faces impressive.CTo classify some face pictures DTo observe the researchers faces.68What does the underlined word they in Paragraph 6 refer to?AThe participants in the study.BThe researchers of the study.CThe errors made during the study.DThe data collected from the study.69In comparison with Westerners, Easterners are likely to .Ado translation more successfullyBstudy the mouth more frequentlyCexamine the eyes more attentivelyDread facial expressions more correctly70What can be the best title for the passage?AThe Eye as the Window to the SoulBCultural Differences in Reading EmotionsCEffective Methods to Develop Social SkillsDHow to Increase Cross-cultural UnderstandingPart IV Writing （45 marks）Section A （10 marks）Directions: Read the following passageFill in the numbered blanks by using theinformation from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.An apprenticeship is a form of on-the-job training that combines workplace experience and classroom learningIt can last anywhere from one to six years, but four years is typical for mostAn apprentice spends the majority of the time in a workplace environment learning the practical skills of a career from a journeyman-someone who has done the job for many yearsThe rest of the apprentices time is spent in a classroom environment learning the theoretical skills the career requiresBeing an apprentice is a full-time undertaking.One of the advantages of apprenticeship is that it does not cost apprentices anythingThe companies that hire them pay for schoolWhats more, it offers apprentices an earn while you learn opportunityThey usually start out at half the pay of a journeyman, and the pay increases gradually as they move further along in the job and studiesNear the end of the apprenticeship, their wages are usually 90 percent of what a journeyman would receiveApprenticeship also pays off for employersIt can offer employers a pool of well-trained workers to draw from.Despite the advantages, apprentices are usually required to work during the day and attend classes at night, which leaves little time for anything elseSometimes, they might be laid off（下岗） if business for the employers is slow.Once they have completed the apprenticeship and become journeymen, they receive a nationally recognized and portable certification and their pay also increases againSome journeymen continue employment with the companies they apprenticed with; others go onto different companies or become self-employed contractors.Section B （10 marks）Directions: Read the following passage, Answer
