An experiment called“Mars500”was undertaken at a Moscow research institute to test whether humans could stay healthy and sane(神志正常的)for more than six months in space, according to China Daily. It began 18 months ago and finally came to an end on November 4. After 540 days of being locked away in small, windowless cells, the six astronauts were once again allowed to see daylight and hug their families. During the test, the psychological strain of a real Mars mission was recreated as closely as possible. Six male astronautsthree Russians, a Frenchman, an Italian-Colombian, and a Chinese manlived in a fake spaceship to simulate(模拟)a return flight to the Red Planet. They ate the same kind of food as real astronauts would have. They rarely showered, and took urine(尿)and blood samples every day to complete more than 100 mock(模拟的)missions, including dealing with emergencies, space walking and conducting scientific experiments. They rarely had the chance to communicate with their families. The biggest challenges the men faced were isolation, claustrophobia(幽闭恐怖症)and boredom. Although they were firmly anchored(固定)by gravitythe only difference from the real Martian environmentthis did not stop them from feeling as if they were thousands of miles away from home. “I really felt a physical(实实在在的)distance between our crew and the people in Mission Control. My reason knows that theyre just 20 meters away from us but my mind cant accept it, ”Frenchman Romain Charles wrote to Reuters the night before his return. Participants were allowed to quit the test at any time if the stress got too much for them, but none of them did and there were only minor disagreements among the team. According to Alexander Suvorov, one of the projects top officials, the mission had been a resounding(令人瞩目的)success. He said it proved that human beings are strong enough for long-distance space travel. (391W)1. The“Mars500”experiment is intended to.

(B)Fluency in another language is one of the most important aims of a newcomer to another country. In addition, understanding the culture and learning to communicate comfortably with people of that culture are as important as learning the rules of the language. Language learning and culture learning go together and may take a long time. People do learn a lot when they first begin living in another culture, but this is only the first stage of learning. It usually involves(包含)things like learning everyday activities and some basic customs. Culture is like an iceberg. Picture in your mind a huge iceberg in the ocean. The only part of the iceberg that you see is the tip. You dont see the rest of the iceberg because it is hidden from sight in the water. When you meet someone from another culture, certain culture differences are obvious: You hear another language or you hear your own language spoken with an accent. You see different foods, clothes and sometimes physical characteristics of people. You observe new customs or habits, such as the use of chopsticks, and, bowing or kissing on both cheeks as a greeting. These differences are interesting and important, but they are usually not too difficult to understand. They are visible so they are seen easily and quickly. The part of culture that is like the underwater part of the iceberg consists of assumptions(设想), communication styles, values, and beliefs about what is right and wrong. The hidden part of culture affects much of a persons way of thinking and communicating. It is the meaning behind his or her verbal(语言的)and non-verbal languages. Learning to communicate well with people from another culture involves becoming aware of the hidden part of culture. (395W)5. Whats the subject of this passage? A. Learning about culture. B. Language learning. C. The hidden part of the iceberg. D. Fluency in another language. 6. How should we learn about culture? A. Learning the hidden part of the iceberg, which is underwater. B. Learning everyday activities and some basic customs. C. Learning the culture of an iceberg. D. Learning the visible as well as the hidden differences of culture. 7. The underlined word “visible” in the third paragraph means. A. 重要的B. 有趣的C. 看得见的D. 有价值的8. What conclusion can we draw after reading this passage? A. Values and beliefs are like the tip of the iceberg. B. People often become aware of the hidden part of culture. C. The tip of the iceberg is larger than the hidden part. D. The hidden part of culture has a great effect on peoples communication styles. 【语篇随练】请结合阅读理解(A), 用英语概括段落大意段落段落大意Para. 1_Paras. 2、3_Paras. 48_Para. 9_答案解析. 1.【解析】选D。句意: 我许诺对其保密, 所以我不会告诉你任何超出你已经知道的东西。beyond超出。2.【解析】选B。句意: 杰克不果断, 总是发现自己处于困境之中, 好像不知道他真正想要做什么。dilemma困境;fantasy幻想;contradiction矛盾;conflict冲突。3. 【解析】选B。句意: 他为什么从公司辞职? 为了找一份更有挑战性的工作。resign辞职;retire退休;remove移动;leave离开, 及物动词, leave someplace离开某处, 不用介词。故选B。【变式备选】Why did hethe company?
