maybe you will pile up books as if to make a wall.preferences (偏好) for personal space are different from culture to culture. scientists have found that americans generally prefer more personal space than people from other cultures. in latin (拉丁人的) cultures, however, people are more comfortable standing close to each other.51. the writer mainly _ in this article.a. tells us how to achieve personal spaceb. explains why people need personal spacec. introduces some knowledge about personal spaced. argues for the importance of keeping personal space52. what can we know from the survey by tripadvisor?a. people need a smaller personal space in recent times than before. b. people have a strong desire for personal space in recent times.c. there are not enough seats on the plane to meet peoples needs.d. food service is better provided than seats on the plane.53. which of the following is true according to the passage?a. the space around the body is more needed than that around all the senses. b. if you hold newspapers on the bus, your personal space wont be violated.c. people usually choose the corner seats first in a library for personal space.d. different cultures share the same preferences for personal space. done afternoon i toured an art museum while waiting for my husband to finish a business meeting. i was looking forward to a quiet view of the art works. a young couple viewing the paintings ahead of me chatted nonstop between themselves. i watched them a moment and decided the wife was doing all the talk. i admired the husbands patience for putting up with (忍受) her continuous talk. distracted (分心) by their noise, i moved on. i met with them several times as i moved through the different rooms of art. each time i heard her continuous burst of words, i moved away quickly. i was standing at the counter of the museum gift shop buying some souvenirs when the couple came near to the exit. before they left, the man reached into his pocket and pulled out a white object. he extended (延长) it into a long stick and then tapped his way into the coatroom to get his wifes jacket. hes a brave man. the salesman at the counter said, most of us would give up if we were blinded at such a young age. during his recovery (恢复) he made a promise that his life wouldnt change. so, as before, he and his wife come in whenever theres a new art show. but what dose he get out of the art? i asked, he cant see. cant see? youre wrong. he sees a lot. more than you or i do. the salesman said, his wife describes each painting so he can see it in his head. i learned something about patience, courage and love that day. i saw the patience of a young wife describing paintings to a person without sight and the courage of a husband who would not allow blindness to change his life. and i saw the love shared by two people as i watched this couple walk away hand in hand. 54. the young couple were at an art museum _. a. to show their love b. to enjoy artc. to discuss paintingsd. to describe paintings55. .i moved away quickly. in paragraph 3 shows that the writer _. a. was in the hope of visiting more roomsb. was in a hurry to buy some gifts c. was tired of the nonstop talkingd. was not interested in the art show56. we can infer from the passage that the husband _. a. was not born blindb. couldnt put up with his wifec. knew nothing about artd. completely depended on his wife57. the passage is mainly about _. a. the importance of art b. good manners in publicc. patience of a husband d. love between a couple第ii卷 (主观题 共40分)五、词汇运用 （本大题共8分，每小题1分）(a) 根据句意和汉语注释，写出单词的正确形式。1. his latest film has won high _ (赞扬) from the audience. 2. the more children are _ (鼓励), the better they will behave.3. hepburn worked as a model before entering the film _ (行业). 4. im strongly _ (反对) smoking because it may cause cancer.
