If this _21_ the case, be patient with them. Unfortunately, little is taught about the cultures or customs of other countries in America schools. The United States has always been separated from older countries by the vast oceans to the East and West of the country. As a _22_ Americans have not become so familiar with different cultures and other ways of doing things as is often the case in older countries. If Americans try to help you _23_ something that is very familiar to you, if they mistake your country for another of thousands of kilometers away, be patient with them. The United States has developed into a modern nation in a very short time _24_ with many other countries-only about 300 years. Americans have been very busy with growth of the country, with building roads and cities, establishing free education for millions of children, and making inventions, discoveries, and developments to benefit the whole world. The Nations attention has been on the United States, not on the world, during most of this _25_ period. It is only since World War Two (1939-1945) that Americans have been more interested in other parts of the World.21. A. with B. compared C. result D. 300-year E. is22.

You can have days with more or fewer than twenty-four hours, and weeks with more or fewer than seven days. Your ship goes into _22_ time part every day if you make a five-day journey across the Atlantic Ocean. As you go into each part, the time _23_ one hour. Traveling west, you set your clock back; traveling east, you let it ahead. Each day of your journey has either twenty-five or twenty-three hours.

It is certainly true that worry and quarrel can cause all kinds of illnesses, 21 backache to severe headaches, or even more serious complaints such as high blood pressure. Many of us think 22 stress as something that other people impose on us. We often complain about how other people put us 23 pressure. But we should try not to let such pressure affect us. We should not forget that we are largely responsible for some of the stress ourselves. We sometimes take 24 more work than our bodies and our minds can handle. We should learn to 25 our limitations. We should be aware of which things are really important and which are not.21. A. of B. underC. acceptD. from E. on22. A. ofB. underC. acceptD. from E. on23. A. ofB. underC. accept D. from E. on24.

But it is not as easy as it appeals at first _21_ to introduce equal pay for equal work. Two people may be working side by side in a factory and doing the same work, but one may be doing it twice as fast as the _22_; or one may be making no mistakes, while the other is making a lot. In some kinds of work, one can solve the problem of speed if one pays by the amount of work to be done and not by the hour: work paid for in this _23_ is called piece-work. But it is not always possible to do this, so it is sometimes useful to pay workers at different rates, which take differences in skill into _24_. This usually means that the younger and therefore less experienced worker gets less than the _25_ and more experienced one, which seems reasonable enough.21.

In the _21_ 30 years man will face a period of crisis. _22_ experts believe that there will be a widespread food shortage. Other experts think this is too pessimistic, and that man can prevent things from getting worse than they are now. But remember that two thirds of the people in the world are under-nourished（有营养的）or starving now. One thing that man can do is to limit the _23_ of babies born. The need _24_ this is obvious, but it is not _25_ to achieve. People have to be persuaded to limit their families.21.A. forB. easyC. SomeD. numberE. next答案：E22.A. forB. easyC.

Chinese cities have more cars than before. Every day many people are _21_ while they cross the road. Most of _22_ are old people and children. Old people are often killed because they usually cant see clearly or hear very well. _23_ are killed because they are careless. A car, truck or bus cant stop very quickly if it is going very fast. The faster a car is traveling, the longer it takes to stop. But people walking in the street do not always understand this. Its _24_ for people to know how fast a car is traveling. The new traffic laws were put into use _25_ May 1st, 2004. The new traffic laws will make the streets safer for walking and driving. 21.A. killedB. onC. childrenD. difficultE. them答案：A22.A. killedB. onC. childrenD. difficultE. them答案：E23.A. killedB. onC. childrenD. difficultE. them答案：C24.
