As a by I was always small fr my age. I was als five years yunger than ne f my brthers and seven years yunger than the ther. As a result I ften felt left ut when their friends came ver t play. I was either t small r t yung fr whatever they were ding and they didn’t want me t listen t their cnversatins, either. Mre ften than nt I fund myself utside playing alne and feeling frgtten.
I remember ne spring afternn feeling especially lnely as I sat in the yard behind ur huse. We lived miles frm twn and I rarely saw my wn friends utside f schl. I heard my brthers laughing frm inside the huse and felt tears cming dwn my cheek. At that mment I saw a large brwn dg walking ver t me. He lked happy and his tail was wagging as well. Even thugh he didn’t knw me, he greeted me like a lng-lst friend, licking my feet and sitting beside me n the spring grass.
It must have been fr at least an hur that I petted and talked t this fur-legged angel. He let me pur ut all my trubles and share my deepest thughts befre he kissed my cheek gdbye. I went back inside feeling happy, knwing that n matter what life may hld, I was lved. Nw ver 40 years later I still remember that angel with a smile. I believe that Gd sent him in that mment f sadness t remind me just hw much he lved me.
In truth, nthing brings us greater jy than knwing we are lved. Knwing we are lved gives us the strength t lve thers as well. Knwing we are lved aids us in making Earth mre like Heaven. Embrace that lve, take jy in it, and then g ut and share yur wn lve with the wrld.

The key t effective crss-cultural cmmunicatin is knwledge. First, it is essential that peple understand the ptential prblems f crss-cultural cmmunicatin, and make a cnscius effrt t vercme these prblems. Secnd, it is imprtant t assume that ne’s effrts will nt always be successful, and adjust ne’s behaviur apprpriately.
Fr example, ne shuld always assume that there is a great pssibility that cultural differences are causing cmmunicatin prblems. One shuld respnd slwly and carefully in crss-cultural exchanges, nt jumping t the cnclusin that yu knw what is being thught and said.
William Ury’s suggestin fr heated cnflicts is t stp, listen and think and he advises ging t the balcny when the situatin gets tense （紧张的）. This helps in crss-cultural cmmunicatin as well. When things seem t be ging badly, stp r slw dwn and think. What culd be ging n here? Is it pssible that I misinterpreted what they said?
Active listening can smetimes be used t check this ut—by repeating what ne thinks he r she heard, ne can cnfirm that he r she understands the cmmunicatin accurately.
Often intermediaries （调解人） can be helpful in crss-cultural cmmunicatin situatins. They can translate bth the essential meaning and the manner f what is said. Fr example, they can tne dwn strng statements that wuld be cnsidered apprpriate in ne culture but nt in anther, befre they are given t peple frm a culture that des nt talk tgether in such a strng way. They can als adjust the timing f what is said and dne. Sme cultures mve quickly t the pint; thers talk abut ther things lng enugh t establish a relatinship with the ther persn. If discussin n the primary tpic begins t sn, the grup that needs a “warm-up” first will feel uncmfrtable. An intermediary wh understands this can explain the prblem, and make apprpriate adjustments.
28．What is the mst imprtant thing in crss-cultural cmmunicatin?
A．Knwledge f yur wn culture.B．The ability t take in different pinins.
C．Awareness f the prblems that may arise.D．Successful effrts t change yur behaviur.
29．Which character helps prevent cmmunicatin prblems?
A．Patience. B．Hnesty. C．Genersity. D．Stubbrnness.
30．What des the underlined phrase “ging t the balcny” in paragraph 3 mean?
A．Ging utside and enjying fresh air.B．Dealing with the cnflicts in a secret way.
C．Exchanging psitins with each ther.D．Getting ut f the situatin temprarily.
31．What is the requirement fr an intermediary?
A．T be an experienced translatr.B．T behave prperly all thrugh a discussin.
C．T be directly invlved in a discussin.D．T knw bth cultures very well.
D
One f the imprtant, but seldm-discussed prblems in healthcare refrm is hw t take care f ur aging ppulatin as peple cntinue t live lnger. Accrding t a new study frm the MacArthur Research Netwrk n an Aging Sciety, by 2050 Americans may live 3.1 t 7.9 years lnger than the gvernment expects. That wuld mean wmen wuld live 89 t 93 years and men 83 t nearly 86 years. The researchers base their cnclusin n “rapid advances in bimedical （生物医药） technlgy that delay the start and prgressin f majr deadly diseases r that slw the aging prcess.”
While this is gd news, especially fr the yung, the life expectancy, which is in excess f （超过） the gvernment’s estimates, wuld raise csts sharply fr Medicare and Scial Security. If the study’s predictins are accurate, the ttal cst fr thse tw prgrams thrugh 2050 culd be between $3.2 trillin and $8.3 trillin higher than the US Census Bureau （人口普查局） and the Scial Security Administratin currently expect.
And that’s nly the beginning. With anticipated scientific breakthrughs in cming decades, peple culd eventually live t 150 years f age, says Dr. Steven Jyal, an fficial f the Life Extensin Fundatin (LEF), a nnprfit rganizatin that prmtes research n hw we can live lnger and healthier. The MacArthur paper, in fact, says that sme experts believe the average life expectancy culd hit 100 by 2060.
What’s mre, Jyal says, the cnquest （战胜） f disease and the slwing f the aging prcess will lead t a sharp decline in disability, allwing peple f advanced age t functin as well as they did when they were much yunger. “In ther wrds, a 90-year-ld persn culd have the same mental and physical capacity as smebdy 40 r 50 years ld.”
32．What can we knw abut the new study?
A．Great prgress has been made in the US in public security.
B．Americans will live much lnger by 2050 than they d nw.
C．Few peple pay attentin t the health care refrm in the US.
D．Fewer Americans suffer frm deadly disease nw than befre.
33．What prbably helps Americans live much lnger?
A．Scial security. B．Healthcare refrm.
C．Bimedical technlgy. D．New research in health care.
34．What prblem may a lnger life expectancy in the US lead t?
A．The aging prcess will speed up.B．It adds t the chance f being disabled.
C．The ld will have sme mental prblems.D．It will increase public csts fr the gvernment.
35．Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the text?

“Surprise!” was the first thing I heard when I pened the dr. My family and friends were all smiling at me.
