Green building can also refer to environmentally friendly houses, factories, and offices.Green building means “reducing the impact (影响) of the building on the land”, Taryn Holowka of the U.S. Green Building Council in Washington, D.C., said.According to Holowka, building accounts for (占了) 65 percent of total U.S. electricity use.But green building can reduce energy and water use. Also, the building are often located near public transportation such as buses and subways, so that people can drive their cars less. That could be good for the environment, because cars use lots of gas and give off pollution. Green building are often built on developed land, so that the buildings dont destroy forests.Marty Dettling is project manger for a building that put these ideas into action . The Solaire has been called the countrys first green high-rise building. According to Dettling, “Weve reduced our energy use by one-third and our water by 50 percent,”The Solaire cuts energy in past by using solar power. “ On the face of the building we have solar panels which change the suns energy into electricity,” Dettling explained.The Solaire also has lights that automatically turn off when people leave the room. In addition, the building has lots of windows, allowing people to use the sun for light during the day. The Solaire cuts water reusing it.Not everyone is eager to move into a green building, however. Some people think that things like solar panels cost more money than more traditional energy sources. Anyhow, Holowka said, “Its going to be big.”28. In the second paragraph, the underlined words “the building” most probably refer to _.A. an ordinary buildingB. an energy-saving buildingC. a green-colored buildingD. a building in Washington D.C.29. A green building is often built on an area of land_.A. which has thick forests aroundB. which has already been for buildingsC. where people of high income liveD. where traveling around by car is most convenient30. When Holowka says in the last paragraph, “Its going to be big”, she means that green buildings_.A. will be more comfortableB. will become popular in futureC. will be more environmentally friendD. will take the place of traditional building31. When is the main subject discussed in the text?A. Dettling designed the first green building in the U.S.B. Energy shortage calls for buildings of new design.C. Green building help save environment.D. The Solaire serves as a model of high building.DFacial expressions carry meaning that is determined by situations and relationships. For example, in American culture（文化）, the smile is in general an expression of pleasure. Yet it also has other uses. A womans smile at a police officer does not carry the same meaning as the smile she gives to a young child. A smile may show love or politeness. It can also hide true feelings. It often causes confusion（困惑）across cultures. For example, many people in Russia consider smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even improper. Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places（although this is less common in big cities）. Some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places; some Americans believe that Russians dont smile enough. In Southeast Asian cultures, a smile is frequently used to cover painful feelings. Vietnamese people may tell a sad story but end the story with a smile.Our faces show emotions（情感）, but we should not attempt to “read” people from another culture as we would “read” someone from our own culture. The fact that members of one culture do not express their emotions as openly as do members of another does not mean that they do not experience emotions. Rather, there are cultural differences in the amount of facial expressiveness permitted. For example, in public and in formal situations many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do. When with friends, Japanese and Americans seem to show their emotions similarly.It is difficult to generalize about Americans and facial expressiveness because of personal and cultural differences in the United States. People from certain cultural backgrounds in the United States seem to be more facially expressive than others. The key is to try not to judge people whose ways of showing emotion are different. If we judge according to our own cultural habits, we may make the mistake of “reading” the other person incorrectly.32. What does the smile usually mean in the U.S.?A. Love.B. Politeness.C. Joy.D. Thankfulness.33. The author mentions the smile of the Vietnamese to prove that a smile can_.A. show friendliness to strangersB. be used to hide true feelingsC. be used in the wrong placesD. show personal habits34. What should we do before attempting to “read” people?A. Figure out what they will do next.B. Find out about their past experience.C. Understand their cultural backgrounds.D. Learn about their relations with others.35. What would be the best title for the text?A. Cultural DifferencesB. Smiles and RelationshipsC. Facial ExpressivenessD. Habits and Emotions第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。As the old saying goes, laughter is the best medicine. 36 However, doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body. They have found that laughter really can improve peoples health.37 People watched funny films while doctors checked their heart, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise. It increases blood pressure, makes the heart beat quicker and makes people breathe deeper; it also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet. 38 .Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body. In one experiment, doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. 39 The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemical in the brain which reduces both stress and pain.40 They try to improve their patients condition by encouraging them to laugh. They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial (有益的) effects similar to those caused by laughter.A. Therefore, people are taught to laugh.B. Laughter is closely related to good health.C. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.D. Until recently, few people took the saying seriously.E. Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body.F. As a result, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics.G. The group that tolerated the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program.第三部分：完型填空（共20小题：每小题1.5分，满分30分）短文，掌握其大意，然后从4160各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出最佳选项。As we all know, eyes are considered as the window of the souls.
