Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage OneQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.In the United States, it is important to be on time for an appointment, a class, a meeting, etc. However, this may not be true in all countries. An American professor discovered this difference while teaching a class in a Brazilian（巴西的）university. The two-hour class was scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. and end at 12. On the first day, when the professor arrived on time, no one was in the classroom. Many students came after 10 a.m. Several arrived after 10:30 a.m. Two students came after 11 a.m. Although all the students greeted the professor as they arrived, few apologized for their lateness. Were these students being rude? He decided to study the students behavior.The professor talked to American and Brazilian students about lateness in both an informal and a formal situation: at a lunch with a friend and in university calls respectively. He gave them an example and asked them how they would react. If they had a lunch appointment with a friend, the average American student showed clearly lateness as 19 minutes after the agreed time. On the other hand, the average Brazilian student would be 33 minutes late.In an American university, students are expected to arrive at the appointed hour. In contrast, in Brazil, neither the teacher nor the students always arrive at the appointed hour. Classes not only begin at the scheduled time in the United States, but also end at the scheduled time. In the Brazilian class, only a few students left the class at 12:00; many remained past 12:30 to discuss the class and ask more questions. Arriving late may not be very important in Brazil, neither is staying late.在美国,重要的是要准时赴约,上课,开会,等。然而,这可能不是真正的在所有国家。一个美国教授在巴西发现了这种差异,教学类(巴西的)大学。两个小时课,按计划将于上午10点开始,12点结束。第一天,当教授准时到达,没有人在教室里。许多学生是在上午10点。几个在上午10:30到达。两个学生之后11点。虽然所有的学生都欢迎教授他们到达时,很少为自己的迟到表示道歉。这些学生无礼吗?他决定研究学生的行为。教授美国和巴西的学生交谈关于迟到的非正式和正式的场合:午餐和一个朋友在大学分别调用。他给了他们一个例子,问他们他们将如何反应。如果他们有一个午餐约会一个朋友,美国学生清楚表明迟到平均19分钟后约定时间。另一方面,巴西平均学生迟到将33分钟。在美国的一所大学,学生将在约定的时间到达。相比之下,在巴西,无论是老师还是学生总是在约定的时间到达。类不仅开始在预定的时间在美国,而且在预定的时间结束。在巴西类,只有少数学生在12点离开了类;许多保持过去12:30讨论类和问更多的问题。在巴西迟到并不是非常重要，延时离开也一样11.

They think their parents high expectations are burdens. But a recent survey found that they are much luckier than teenagers in Japan, Korea and the US, who also find their parents annoying. The parents of foreign teens have even higher expectations of their children than Chinese parents. 62% of Chinese fathers and 66% of Chinese mothers have high expectations of their children at high school age. They rank third and fourth among fathers and mothers of four countries. Japanese mothers top the list with 76% having high expectations, while 70% of Korean fathers expect too much of their children. Japanese teens are the most deeply troubled by their parents constantly comparing them with other kids.The survey also found that Chinese students are the most satisfied with their parents. They blame them less, and also receive less criticism than those from the other three countries. However, satisfaction doesnt mean they are happy. Of the four countries, Chinese children are not the happiest at home. They get the least praise from their parents and they dont feel able to express their unhappiness to them,Results from the survey show that in spite of different cultural backgrounds, generation gaps exist in many countries other than China. Its even bigger elsewhere. It is said that Chinese parents are used to burying their feelings deep in their hearts, which makes their children not want to talk openly with them. This survey shows that both parents and teenagers in China need to work on communicating and understanding each other.Besides their family life, students were also questioned about their opinions on themselves and others in the world. US students showed more “individuality,” with 88% agreeing that “people should follow their own interests instead of those of others”. Koreans were the next most independent, followed by the Chinese and Japanese.许多中国高中学生都厌倦了他们父母的唠叨(唠叨)。他们认为父母的高期望是负担。但最近的一项调查发现,他们比青少年更幸运在日本,韩国和美国,他也觉得父母很讨厌。外国的青少年的父母有更高的期望他们的孩子比中国的父母。中国62%的父亲和66%的中国母亲对于自己的孩子有很高的期望在高中时代。他们的父亲和母亲之间排名第三和第四的四个国家。日本母亲榜首76%有很高的期望,而70%的韩国父亲期望太多的孩子。日本青少年是最深深困扰他们的父母经常和其他孩子进行比较。调查还发现,中国学生最满意他们的父母。少他们责怪他们,少也收到比其他三个国家的批评。然而,满意度并不意味着他们是快乐的。这四个国家,中国在家不是最快乐的孩子。至少他们得到父母的赞扬,他们觉得不能够表达他们的不满,调查的结果表明,尽管不同文化背景,代沟存在于许多国家除了中国。这是更大的地方。据说中国的父母习惯于将自己的感情深埋在心里,使他们的孩子不希望公开与他们交谈。这个调查显示,在中国父母和青少年需要相互沟通和理解。除了他们的家庭生活,学生们还询问他们的意见对自己和他人。我们学生表现出更多的“个性”,88%认为“人们应该遵循自己的利益而不是他人的”。韩国人是下一个最独立,紧随其后的是中国和日本。21.The text is mainly about_.A) the unlucky school students troubles他不幸的学生问题B) the different generation gaps in different countries在不同的国家不同的代沟C) the comparison of students family situations in different countries不同国家的学生家庭情况的比较D) the relationship between children and parents孩子和父母之间的关系22.

Soon you may be able to throw your wallet away and pay for things with a quick wave of your smart phone over an electronic scanner.In January, Starbucks announced that customers could start using their phones to buy coffee in 6,800 of its stores. This is the first pay-by-phone practice in the U.S., but were likely to see more wireless payment alternatives as something called near field communication (NFC) gets into Americas consumer electronics. Last December, some new smart phones which contain an NFC chip were introduced to the public.Already in use in parts of Asia and Europe, NFC allows shoppers to wave their phones a few inches above a payment terminal a contact-free system built for speed and convenience. But before NFC becomes widely adopted in the U.S., a few problems need to be worked out, like who will get to collect the profitable transaction fees. Although some credit card providers have been experimenting with wave-and-pay systems that use NFC-enabled credit cards, cell-phone service providers may try to muscle their way into the point-of-sale (POS) market. Three big cell-phone service providers have formed a joint venture that will go into operation over the next 15 months. Its goal is “to lead the U.S. payments industry from cards to mobile phones.”The other big NFC issue, apart from how payments will be processed, is security. For instance, whats to stop a thief from digitally pickpocketing you? “Were still not at the point where an attacker can just brush against you in a crowd and steal all the money out of your phone.” says Jimmy Shah, a mobile-security researcher. “Users may also be able to set transaction limits, perhaps requiring a password to be entered for larger purchases.”Are you still uneasy about this digital-wallet business? Keep in mind that if you lose your smart phone, it can be located on a map and remotely disabled. Plus, your phone can be password protected. Your wallet isnt.这更有可能与你在任何给定的时刻你的手机或钱包吗?很快你可以扔掉你的钱包和支付你的智能手机的快速波电子扫描仪。今年1月,星巴克宣布,客户可能会在6800年开始使用手机购买咖啡的商店。这是第一个pay-by-phone实践在美国,但我们可能会看到更多的无线支付选择所谓的近场通信(NFC)进入美国的消费电子产品。去年12月,一些新的智能手机含有一个NFC芯片介绍给公众。已经在使用在亚洲和欧洲部分地区,NFC手机可以让购物者波几英寸以上支付终端无接触充电成为系统在速度和方便。但在NFC成为在美国被广泛采用,一些问题需要解决,如谁会收集有利可图的交易费用。尽管一些信用卡提供商已经在尝试使用感应刷卡系统具备nfc功能的信用卡,手机服务提供商可能会肌肉进入销售点(POS)市场。三大手机服务提供商已经成立了一家合资企业,将进入操作在接下来的15个月。它的目标是“领导美国支付行业从卡到手机”。其他大的NFC问题,除了支付将如何处理,是安全性。例如,数码阻止小偷扒窃的吗?“我们仍然没有对你的攻击者可以刷在人群中偷走所有的钱从你的电话。”吉米沙阿说,移动安全研究员。“用户还可以设置交易限制,也许需要一个密码输入购买更大。”你还在担心这个电子钱包业务吗?请记住,如果你失去了你的智能手机,它可以位于一个地图和远程禁用。另外,你的电话密码保护。你的钱包不是。26.What is predicted to happen in the U.S.? 在美国预计会发生什么A) The expansion of cell-phone companies.B) The boom of pay-by-phone business. pay-by-phone商业的繁荣。C) The disappearance of credit cards.D) The increase of Starbucks sales.27.The NFC technology can be used to _.
