people agree that the direct, assertive(过分自信的) american personality is a virtue, but it sometimes surprises foreigners. in many cultures, respect for older people or those in positions of authority keeps others from expressing their true feelings. but in the u.s, children often argue with their parents, students may disagree with their teachers, and citizens may express opposition to the actions of the government. if the soup has a fly in it or the meat is too tough to chew, the diner can complain to the waiter, if the boss makes a mistake, an employee will politely point it out.some straight talk about the american character must include the admission that americans have their faults. the extremely competitive nature of americans is probably their worst fault. of course, competition isnt always bad. as a matter of fact, it promotes excellence by encouraging individuals and businesses to try to do their best. but the desire to get ahead of others sometimes causes people to do things that are unkind and even dishonest. also, americans admire what is practical, fast, efficient, and fresh. sometimes they fail to understand and appreciate practices that have greater respect for more traditional, leisurely ways of doing things. on the other hand, people from other cultures may dislike the practical, challenging american lifestyle.despite culture differences, most foreigners give americans credit for their virtues. americans are generally viewed as friendly, adaptable, energetic, and kindhearted. most newcomers to the u.s. like americans, and the feeling is usually mutual. perhaps the greatest american virtue is a deep interest in new ideas and new people. in a nation of immigrants, the foreigner does not remain an outsider for long.56.in order to show the respect for older people,. .a.people from some other cultures will always express their true feelingb.people from some other cultures may sometimes hide their true feelingc.americans always show their true feelingsd.americans usually argue with them57.why is the extremely competitive nature considered as one of american faults?a.because people from other cultures fear competition.b.because only american people own it.c.because it will make people forget leisure.d.because it may sometimes urge people to do something bad.58.it can be inferred from the passage that . .a.american people are more critical of everything than people from other culturesb.the author believes that american character has more faults than virtuesc.the author admires american virtues as they are viewed as competitive and anti traditionald.it is difficult for newcomers to get on with americans59.the passage mainly talks about . .a.american virtues b.american characters c.american faults d.american lifestylesbthe united states is trying to improve an edueation system that produces millions of citizens who cannot read, write, or addlet alone finding their country on a map.in his first state of union message since taking office a year ago, president george bush promised to wipe out illiteracy(文盲) in the next decade and declared that“by the year 2008, u.s students must be first in the world in math and science achievements. ” they have a long way to go. american students were placed 14th in a recent general science test conducted in 16 countries. in a separate survey of chemistry students, the united states came 12 out of 14. in a mathematics test, they were last. according to bush, there are 17 million illiterates in this country of 245 million people. other estimates put the number as high as 23 million. in percentage terms, that ranks the united states alongside niearague and below cuba. “this nation,”bush said in his state of the union address, “will not accept anything but excellent in education.” bush, who has declared himself “education president”, and senior officals of his administration are warning that the united states will be unable to compete in the world without an educated workforce.how to increase educational standards is a matter of debate in a country whose schools have no uniform national curriculum and are subject to a confusing variety of state and local controls. most experts think that the problem lies at the elementary and high schoollevels rather than with universities-but even their graduates show huge gaps in general knowledge. among the root causes most frequently mentioned in education debates is the low respect in which u.s. society holds teachers-in contrast to japan and germany. in japan teaching is a profession of high prestige(威望) and high pay. in the united states teachers are near the bottom of the society.60.by“the united states came 12 out of 14”(para. 2), the author means . a.the united states ranked 12th not 14th in the chemistry testb.the united states ranked 12th in the chemistry test conducted by 14 countriesc.the united states progressed from 14th to 12th in the chemistry testd.the united states ranked 12th in chemistry test and 14th in general science test61.the cause of low educational level in america include the following except that . a.some problems exist in primary and secondary educationb.society keeps teachers in low respectc.america pays more attention to economy instead of educationd.america has no uniform national courses62.which of the following statements can be inferred from the passage?a.president bush carried out his promise made in his first state of union message.b.the education in japan and germany is in higher level.c.according to bush, the number of illiterates accounts for 9% of the total.d.teachers in the united states enjoy good treatment and great respect.63.which of the following is the right order of the least-first of the percent of illiterates?a.germany, cuba, nicaragua. b.germany, nicaragua, cuba.c.nicaragua, japan, cuba. d.cuba, japan, nicaragua.cnever in the history of sierra leones elections have women so actively engaged in politics or competed for parliamentary seats. in the past, women did the dancing and cooking for elections campaigning. in the may 14th elections, we saw over 168 women candidates competitive for president, vice president and parliamentary seats.one would think that about 60% of these women would have emerged as winners. but it was not so, because of our cultural perception of women. we need to change our culture. women could be active politicians. the christians in their own way encouraged women to be preachers(传教士) but the muslim leaders say women should not head for officiating(主持) prayers.the same happens in certain parts of the country where women are not part of decision taken in male secret societies. this prevents them from achieving some of their goals. a senior head in one of the ministries told me that she was getting problems with some of her staff members especially the male staff. most women that come from the northern part of country experience such problems. some men are saying that a woman cannot be their leader.some women are also prejudiced against their women folks. in the last elections, most woman did not support their colleagues. in some parts of the country, because they are not members of secret societies they were not allowed to contest for chieftaincies (酋长或首领的位置). however, sierra leones not withstanding the cultural prejudice against women has witnessed women occupying high public offices. they have been appointed to head certain areas.sierra leone is moving from its past culture. we need a change in our culture. women all over the world are recognized one way or the other as they are now involved in the use of technology. we now see women as air pilots, and they even attempt to go to travel in space.64.in the past, women in sierra leone . .a.took active part in politics b.contested for parliamentary seatsc.danced and cooked for the election campaigning d.shared the equal rights with men65.about 60% of the women engaged in election would have succeeded if . .a.there were less prejudice against women b.less muslim leaders had objectedc.more women had been engaged in the election d.more preachers had supported them66.the author concludes that the women candidates cant win the competitive vote because . a.women is more suitable for the dancing and cooking jobb.wo
