motorcycle and that day we rode it to the nearest park.We bought some coffee and cakes,and then we enjoyed our food.Within a few hours,the sky changed and looked ready for a heavy rain.We packed everything and were ready to go.My sister,who was sitting on a bench suddenly was very still and couldnt talk to me.She couldnt move.Her eyes were rolling and she was about to lose consciousness(知觉).I held her in my arms and asked if she wanted to rest.She didnt answer and only said“Sorry.”It started to rain and I didnt know what to do.She was fighting to stay aware but her skin was pale and her eyes were acting strangely.Suddenly,from nowhere,a woman on a bicycle appeared.wearing a raincoat.She isnt looking good.Do you want me to call an ambulance(救护车)?”“Yes,please,yes!”I begged.She did.Struggling with the rain,she managed to call some policemen,who quickly helped me carry my sister to a safer place.The ambulance arrived and we went to a hospital where she was treated in time and she came to life the next morning after some rest and medical help.An interesting fact was that I guessed the woman in the raincoat was a doctor or a nurse.I later learned from one of the police officers who told me:“No.She was an ordinary person who took some courses on emergency situations(紧急情况).”I am so grateful that she appeared exactly at the moment I dont know why or how.I didnt even get the chance to say thanks to her.4.What happened when the author and her sister were ready to go?AThey had a fight.BThe sister fell ill suddenly.CThey were caught in the rain.DThey had difficulty packing things.5.How did the woman help the author?ABy giving first aid to her sister.BBy protecting her sister from the rain.CBy carrying her sister to the hospital DBy asking for emergency medical help 6.Why did the woman call the policemen?ATo keep order in the park.BTo send the sick girl to hospital.CTo carry the sick girl to a safer place quickly.DTo carry the sick girl onto the ambulance.7.What was the authors main attitude towards the woman?AThankful BFriendly CDoubtful DAdmirable Facial expressions carry meaning that is determined by situations and relationships.For example,in American culture(文化)the smile is in general an expression of pleasure.Yet it also has other uses.A womans smile at a police officer does not carry the same meaning as the smile she gives to a young child.A smile may show love or politeness.It can also hide true feelings.It often causes confusion(困惑)across cultures.For example,many people in Russia consider smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even improper.Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places(although this is less common in big cities).Some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places;some Americans believe that Russians dont smile enough.In Southeast Asian cultures,a smile is frequently used to cover painful feelings.Vietnamese people may tell a sad story but end the story with a smile.Our faces show emotions(情感),but we should not attempt to read people from another culture as we would read someone from our own culture.The fact that members of one culture do not express their emotions as openly as do members of another does not mean that they do not experience emotions.Rather,there are cultural differences in the amount of facial expressions permitted.For example,in public and in formal situations many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do.When with friends,Japanese and Americans seem to show their emotions similarly.It is difficult to generalize about Americans and facial expressiveness because of personal and cultural differences in the United States.People from certain cultural backgrounds in the United States seem to be more facially expressive than others.The key is to try not to judge people whose ways of showing emotion are different.If we judge according to our own cultural habits,we may make the mistake of reading the other person incorrectly.8.What does the smile usually mean in America?ALove.BPoliteness.CJoy.DThankfulness.9.The author mentions the smile of the Vietnamese to prove that smile can _.Ashow friendliness to strangers Bbe used to hide true feelings Cbe used in the wrong places Dshow personal habits 10.What should we do before attempting(尝试)to read people?ALearn about their relations with others.BUnderstand their cultural backgrounds.CFind out about their past experience.DFigure out what they will do next.11.What would be the best title for the test?ACultural Differences BSmiles and Relationship CFacial Expressiveness DHabits and Emotions When 45-year-old Randy Pausch was diagnosed with pancreatic(胰腺)cancer,he chose to focus on living rather than dying.As a computer science

revealed the biggest source of his motivationhis three young children.Pausch passed away on July 25,2008,but his voice lives on in the recorded lecture and his book.He continues to motivate us all by
