To well understand Chinese, some concepts should not be ignored.MianziThe idea of shame, usually expressed as face could be loosely defined as the status or self-respect in Chinese and by no means alien to foreigners. It is the worst thing for a Chinese to lose face. Never insult, embarrass, shame, yell at or otherwise demean a person. Since all these actions would risk putting a Chinese in a situation that he might lose face, neither try to prove someone wrong nor shout at him in public. In order to get a successful effect without letting a Chinese lose face, any criticism should be delivered privately, carefully, or else, just opposite to what you wish. GuanxiThroughout much of Chinese history, the fundamental glue that has held society together is the concept of guanxi, relationships between people. It is very important for the Chinese to have good relationships. They often regard good social relations as a symbol of personal ability and influence. Someone who has no connections would be disrespected and is only half-Chinese. KeqiKeqi not only means considerate, polite, and well mannered, but also represents respect and modesty. It is impolite to talk too proudly about oneself or ones inner circle. The expression is most often used in the negative, as in buyao keqi, meaning you shouldnt be so kind and polite to me, or youre wele. Besides, Chinese seldom express what they think directly and they prefer a roundabout way. Neither show their emotions and feelings in public. They rarely greet people with a handshake, though it is very popular among foreigners, and say nothing of embracing or kissing when greeting or saying good-bye. Consequently, it is better not to behave too carefree in public, even though you are well-intentioned. Also, it is advisable to be fairly cautious in political discussions. Do not particularly push yourself forward, or else you are unwele. To sum up, do in Rome as Rome does, but you need not worry about these cultural barriers since most Chinese are hospitable and friendly and will not mind your no acplishment. 56. In most Chineses eyes, the fundamental glue holding society together is the idea of _.A. relationships between people B. influences upon othersC. dependence on others D. kindness to others57. The underlined word “demean” in the first paragraph means make people _.A. respectfulB. happyC. shameful D. weak58. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage? A. It is impolite to insult, embarrass, shame or shout at a person.B. It is polite that you should bring gifts to others when invited to dinner.C. It is necessary to show your character of being considerate, polite, and well mannered.D. It is important for the Chinese to have good relationships between people.59. Which of the following proverbs has the same meaning as the underlined sentence “Do in Rome as Rome does.”?A. Caution is the parent of safety. B. Many hands make light work.C. Theres no smoke without fire.D. If you are elsewhere, live as they do there.B.We now think of chocolate as sweet, but once it was bitter. We think of it as a candy, but once it was a medicine. Today, chocolate can be a hot drink, a frozen dessert, or just a snack. Sometimes it is an ingredient in the main course of a meal. Mexicans make a hot chocolate sauce called mole and pour it over chicken. The Mexicans also eat chocolate with spices like chili peppers.Chocolate is a product of the tropical cacao tree. The beans taste so bitter that even the monkeys say “Ugh!” and run away. Workers must first dry and then roast the beans. This removes the bitter taste.The word “chocolate” es from a Mayan word. The Mayas were an ancient people who once lived in Mexico. They valued the cacao tree. Some used the beans for money, while others crushed them to make a drink.When the Spaniards came to Mexico in the sixteenth century, they started drinking cacao too. Because the drink was strong and bitter, they thought it was a medicine. No one had the idea of adding sugar. The Spaniards took some beans back to Europe and opened cafes. Wealthy people drank cacao and said it was good for the digestion. In the 1800s, the owner of a chocolate factory in England discovered that sugar removed the bitter taste of cacao. It quickly became a cheap and popular drink. Soon afterwards, a factory made the first solid block of sweetened chocolate. Later on, another factory mixed milk and chocolate together. People liked the taste of milk chocolate even better. Besides the chocolate candy bar, one of the most popular American snacks is the chocolate chip cookie. Favorite desserts are chocolate cream pie and of course an ice cream sundae with hot fudge sauce. 60. It was _that discovered sugar could remove the bitter taste of cacao. A. the workers in the chocolate factory B. the Spaniards C. the people in England D. the owner of a chocolate factory. 61. According to the passage which of the following statements is TRUE?A.

Mexicans like chocolate very muchC. chocolate is a product of the cacao treeD. people liked the taste of chocolate mixed with milk63. Which is the right time order of the events regarding chocolate? a. Chocolate became a cheap and popular drink in England. b. A factory made the first solid block of sweetened chocolate. c.

BERNSTEIND. FELICIA R. LEED.There is, for many of us, a moment in life when we make a choice that changes us forever. This moment marks a turning point, when we realize that the life were living is not a mirror of who we really are.For some, the moment es as a result of something dramatic: the sudden loss of a job, or the death of a loved one. For others, they have to deal with difficult situations, such as financial hardship. In these challenging times, its more critical(关键时刻的) than ever for us to seize the possibility of positive change. As I travel and talk to people about their lives, I often see a distant, vacant look in their eyes - a look that says “Im so busy trying to survive my life that no soul left to live it”. As a result, we end up feeling lonely. Yet we keep on going the way weve been going. We tolerate high levels of stress at work, take important relationships for granted, or put our health needs on hold. We get so caught up in the details of living that our busyness bees an excuse from the inner voice that begs us to listen. When you finally pay attention to that little voice and begin to make even small changes, you will slowly improve yourself. To start positive change, you need the power of your mind. Ive e up with a five-step strategy that will help you. You will be able to identify what you want and then go after it. Its easier than you might think.1. Reset your happiness set point. Dont limit yourself! When I decided that I wanted more control over my life, I set goals in physical, emotional, financial, professional, material, and play. I challenged myself to consider every possible choice. Imagine things youve never believed you could achieve. Dont let your past determine your future.2. Trust your courage. Too often, when youre first learning to take control of your life, you doubt yourself. Its important to develop a strong connection with your inner guidance system. Ive heard many stories about the persistent voice inside your head.3. Take action. Once you have set goals, adjusted your beliefs, and got ready, you can start making things happen. Again, turn to those people you respect - the ones achieving what you desire - for support and guidance. They will both inspire you and give you practical advice on what steps you need to take.
