The explanation for insensitivity to smell seems to be that the brain finds it inefficient to keep all smell receptors working all the time but can create new receptors if necessary. This may also explain why sensitive to our own smells and why we simply do not need to be. (412) We are not aware of the usual smell of our own house but we notice new smells when we visit someone else’s. The brain finds it best to keep smell receptors available for unfamiliar and emergency signals such as the smell of smoke, which might indicate the danger of fire.

English Weekly CET-12 Listening Practice Test 3

Part III Listening Comprehension

Section A

Directions: In this section, you will hear 8 short conversations and 2 long conversations. At the end of each conversation, one or more questions will be asked about what was said. Both the conversation and the questions will be spoken only once. After each question there will be a pause. During the pause, you must read the four choices marked A), B), C) and D), and decide which is the best answer. Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.

11. M: Jack has only been on the job a week and already he’s acting like he is the boss.

W: He’s not going to last long with that attitude.

Q: What does the woman imply?

12. W: There is a great antique show at the Grand Auditorium. Let’s go see it this evening.

M: I have worked really hard all day long. Won’t it be there for a while?

Q: What does the man imply?

13. W: Would you like to come to Cindy’s surprise party tomorrow?

M: I’m going to a concert tomorrow. I wish I could be in two places at the same time.

Q: What does the man mean?

14. M: You know, every time I talk to Mary I get the feeling that she’s been critical of me.

W: Don’t you think you are overreacting a bit?

Q: What does the woman mean?

15. M: Why did you come to the meeting late? I left a message with your roommate about the time change.

W: She has a very short memory and it really gets on my nerve sometimes.

Q: What does the woman imply?

112. M: I’ve had my new stereo for a whole week, but I haven’t figured out how to record a cassette.

W: Didn’t an instruction manual come with it?

Q: What does the woman mean?

17. M: I’m taking up a collection for the jazz band. Would you like to give?

W: Just a minute while I get my wallet.

Q: What will the woman probably do next?

18. M: Your cousins just called. They’re stranded at the beach.

W: So they didn’t manage to get a lift after all.

Q: What had the woman assumed about her cousins?

Now you’ll hear two long conversations.

Conversation One

W: Good morning.

M: Morning, can I help you?

W: Yes, I’d like to join the library. We’re new to the district, you see.

M: Certainly. Well all we need is some sort of identification with your name and address on it.

W: Oh dear. We just moved, you see, and everything has my old address.

M: A driving license, perhaps?

W: No, I don’t drive.

M: Your husband’s would do.

W: Yes, but his license will still have the old address on it.

M: Perhaps you have a letter addressed to you at your new house?

W: No, I’m afraid not. We’ve only been there a few days, you see, and no one’s written to us yet.

M: What about your bank book?

W: That’s just the same. Oh dear, and I did want to get some books out this weekend. We’re going on holiday to relax after the move, you see, and I wanted to take something with me to read.

M: Well, I’m sorry, but we can’t possibly issue tickets without some form of identification. What about your passport?

W: What? Oh yes, how silly of me. I’ve just got a new one and it does have our new address. I’ve just been to book our tickets so I have it on me. Just a minute. Here you are.

M: Thank you. Well, that’s all right. Now if you’d like to go and choose your books, your tickets will be ready for you when you come back to the desk to have them stamped out.

W: Oh, thank you. Er, how many books am I allowed to take out?

M: You can take four books out at a time and you also get two tickets to take out magazines or periodicals. Newspapers, I’m afraid, can’t be taken out; they have to be read here.

W: Oh that’s fine. We have our own daily newspaper delivered to the house. Oh, do you have a record library? Some libraries do, I know.

M: Yes, we do. You have to pay a deposit of £5 in case you damage them. But that entitles you to take out two records at a time. We also have everything available on cassette if you prefer it. Cassettes seem to be much more popular than records lately.

W: Oh yes, as a matter of fact, I would prefer cassettes but I won’t take any out today. I’ll leave it until we come back from our holidays. Could you show me where your history and biography sections are, please?

M: Yes, just over there to your right. If there’s any particular book you want, you can look it up in the catalogue, which you’ll find just round the corner.

W: Thank you. Oh, and how long am I allowed to keep the books for?

M: For three weeks. After that you must telephone to renew the books if you wish to keep them longer. Otherwise we charge 20p a day for each book.

W: Oh dear. We’re going away for six weeks. Can I renew them now?

M: I’m afraid not. You must do that at the end of three weeks. Someone else might want them you see. And in that case we have to ask you to return them.

2010.12英语四级答案考试写作模拟真题(3),W: You mean, if someone wants them after my three weeks are up I have to bring them back?

M: Yes, but just telephone and we’ll see what we can do.

W: But I’m going to Tahiti. It would cost a fortune.

M: Well …

W: Oh, never mind. I’ll leave it until we get back. It’s not worth all the bother. I’ll get some paperbacks in the airport. Well, thank you. I’m sorry I’ve been such a nuisance. Good morning.

M: Not at all. Good morning.

Questions 19 to 21 are based on the conversation you have just heard.

19. What does one need to do to join this library?

20. Why does the woman want to borrow some books?

21. What does this library allow the people who have joined the library to do?

Conversation Two

M: Excuse me, madam.

W: Yes?

M: Would you mind letting me take a look in your bag?

W: I beg your pardon?

M: I’d like to look into your bag, if you don’t mind.

2010.12英语四级答案考试写作模拟真题(3),W: Well I’m afraid I certainly do mind, if it’s all the same to you. Now go away. Impertinence.

M: I’m afraid I shall have to insist, madam.

W: And just who are you to insist, may I ask? I advise you to take yourself off, young man, before I call a policeman.

2010.12英语四级答案考试写作模拟真题(3),M: I am a policeman, madam. Here’s my identity card.

W: What? Oh…well…and just what right does that give you to go around looking into people’s bags?

M: None whatsoever, unless I have reason to believe that there’s something in the bags belonging to someone else.

W: What do you mean belonging to someone else?

M: Well, perhaps, things that haven’t been paid for.

W: Are you talking about stolen goods? That’s a nice way to talk, I must say. I don’t know what things are coming to when perfectly honest citizens get stopped in the street and have their bags examined. A nice state of affairs!

M: Exactly, but if the citizens are honest they wouldn’t mind, would they? So may I look into your bag, madam? We don’t want to make a fuss, do we?

W: Fuss? Who’s making a fuss? Stopping people in the street and demanding to see what they’ve got in their bags. Charming! That’s what I call it: charming! Now go away; I’ve got a train to catch.

M: I’m sorry. I’m trying to do my job as politely as possible, but I’m afraid you’re making it rather difficult. However, I must insist on seeing what you have in your bag.

W: And what, precisely, do you expect to find it there? The Crown Jewels?

M: No need to be sarcastic, madam. I thought I’d made myself plain. If there’s nothing in there which doesn’t belong to you, you can go straight off and catch your train and I’ll apologize for the inconvenience.

W: Oh, very well. Anything to help the police.

M: Thank you, madam.

W: Not at all; only too happy to cooperate. There you are.

M: Thank you, madam. Six lipsticks?

W: Yes, nothing unusual in that. I like to change the color with my mood.

M: And five powder compacts?

W: I use a lot of powder. I don’t want to embarrass you, but I sweat a lot.

M: And ten men’s watches?

W: Er, yes. I get very nervous if I don’t know the time. Anxiety, you know. We all suffer from it in this day and age.

M: I see you smoke a lot, too, madam. Fifteen cigarette lighters?

W: Yes, I am rather a heavy smoker. And … and I use them for finding my way in the dark and … and for finding the keyhole late at night. And … and I happen to collect lighters. It’s my hobby. I have a superb collection at home.

M: I bet you do, madam. Well, I’m afraid I’m going to have to ask you to come along with me.

W: How dare you! I don’t go out with strange men. And anyway I told you I have a train to catch.

M: I’m afraid you won’t be catching it today, madam. Now are you going to come along quietly or am I going to have to call for help?

W: But this is outrageous! (Start fade) I shall complain to my MP. One has to carry one’s valuables around these days; one’s house might be broken into while one’s out …

Questions 22 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.

22. What is the possible relationship between the two speakers?

23. Where does this conversation probably take place?

24. Why does the man stop the woman?

25. What adjectives can be used to describe the man and the woman respectively?

Section B

Directions: In this section, you will hear 3 short passages. At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions. Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D). Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.

Passage One

When viewed within the entire range of past and present human societies, marriage can be described as a more or less durable union, sanctioned by society, between one or more men and one or more women. To obtain the sanction of society it is necessary that the relationship be formed and conducted in accordance with unwritten customs and taboos, as in primitive societies, or in accordance with established laws, as in more sophisticated societies. The sanction of society distinguishes marriage from other relationships between men and women and from air bonding, a reasonably long-term relationship between male and female. All societies have rules or shared patterns of behavior that regulate sexuality, birth, and child rearing. Marriage is the institution that encompasses these rules and patterns of behavior.

According to one definition, which emphasizes relationship between the spouses, marriage is a socially legitimate sexual union. It is begun with a public announcement and usually with a public rite in a form recognized by the society. The union is undertaken with some idea of permanence and with a contract that defines the obligations between the spouses and of the spouses toward any children they may have.

Another definition emphasizes the importance of marriage as a means of providing social legitimacy for the children of the union. In this sense marriage is a relationship between a woman and one or more persons that provides that any child she bears under the rules of the relationship will receive the status and rights common to other members of the society. In this view, the importance of marriage is that it provides a way to distinguish between legitimate and illegitimate births. The assumption is that the child must have a “social father” to ensure proper social development and entrance into the social order. According to this definition, a marriage is a “licensing of parenthood.”

In nearly all societies the greatest emphasis is on having acceptable social fatherhood, which is quite different from physiological fatherhood. Social fatherhood can be assumed by a variety of individuals and by women as well as men. Not all societies have well-defined rules based on physiological fatherhood.

Questions 212 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.

212. How would one obtain the sanction of society in the union between males and females in modern societies?

27. Which one of the following statements about the definition of marriage is not true?

28. What is the greatest emphasis of marriage in nearly all societies?

Passage Two

Today I would like to tell you about the effects of old age on health. Actually today a lot of improvements have taken place in the care of old people and old people’s health is not nearly so bad as it used to be.

Probably many of the fears that people have of growing old are greatly exaggerated. Most people, for example, dread becoming senile. But in fact very few people become senile. Perhaps only about 15% of those over 125 become senile. Actually, a much more common problem is in fact caused by doctors like ourselves. And that is over-medication. Nearly 80% of people over 125 have at least one serious illness, such as high blood pressure, hearing difficulty or heart disease. And very often to combat these they take a number of drugs and of course sometimes there are interactions among these drugs as well as simply being too many. This can cause a lot of complications from mental confusion, very commonly, to disturbance of the heart rhythm. So this is a problem that doctors have to watch out for.

Probably the most ignored disorder among old people is depression. Maybe about 15% of older people suffer from this condition. A lot of it is caused by this over-medication which we mentioned.

Although it is better now for old people, we have to admit that the body does change as we grow older. The immune system starts to decline and there are changes in metabolism, lungs, the senses, the brain and the skin.

So what should an old person do to counter-act these changes?

He or she should eat a balanced diet: not too much fat. Chicken or fish should be eaten rather than eggs or beef. More high fiber and vitamin rich foods should be eaten, such as vegetables and fruit.

Old people should give up smoking if they haven’t already done so. They should also do regular exercise: at least half an hour, three times a week. No section of the population can benefit more from exercise than the elderly.

Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.

29. Which of the following statements is true about the health of old people?

30. Which is a much more common problem with old people’s health?

31. What should old people do in order to have good health?

Passage Three

In our modern days, too many people depend on their cars to get to work or to drop their children off at school. However, is it safe to have an increasing number of cars on our roads?

Research shows that cars create serious pollution. Exhaust from all combustion engines produces harmful effects on the health of both car users and all innocent walkers. Cities have become islands of toxic chemicals from the unrestrained use of vehicles burning fossil fuels. The harmful health effects of car exhaust are pervasive and difficult to measure. For example, people with asthma would suffer with attacks due to the pollution. The world wild life also suffers from the cars’ toxic emissions. No matter how many manufacturers try to make cars environmentally friendly, it will damage our earth in one way or another.

Additionally, cars are very dangerous for our community. Careless drivers put themselves and others in danger. Cars are critical to walkers especially to children if the driver is not looking at the road or is somehow distracted. Have you known someone whose toes or feet have been run over by cars while crossing the street?

Lastly, cars create social problems, which could lead to poor health. A few drivers suffer “Road Rage” and put themselves, loved ones and others in a threatening situation. Some cars create disturbing noises, and disturb people living near highways, freeways, etc. as they do not get enough sleep. People depend on their cars so much they forget to exercise their bodies and end up being obese or having heart problem.

As a result of the excessive number of cars on our roads, everyone’s life is in danger. In order to create an environmentally friendly and safe world, it is necessary for each country to limit the permits in number to control regional air pollution. Secondly, car manufacturers should try to improve the efficiency of vehicles, such as finding solutions to emissions of combustion engines, developing new power sources such as new fuels like natural gas. Thirdly, try to improve efficiency of traffic by setting up dedicated bus lanes and giving priority to car-pools and vehicles with 3 or more persons. Besides, traffic can be scheduled; for example, commercial traffic at night; large companies can shift working hours and decentralize administrative operations.

Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.

32. Which one of the following statements is not one of the effects of cars?

33. Who are the major victims in car accidents?

34. Which of the following is not a problem caused by cars?

35. Which of the following is not true as to handling car problems?

Section C

Directions: In this section, you will hear a passage three times. When the passage is read for the first time, you should listen carefully for its general idea. When the passage is read for the second time, you are required to fill in the blanks numbered from 312 to 43 with the exact words you have just heard. For blanks numbered from 44 to 412 you are required to fill in the missing information. For these blanks, you can either use the exact words you have just heard or write down the main points in your own words. Finally, when the passage is read for the third time, you should check what you have written.

The human nose is an underrated tool. Humans are often thought to be insensitive smellers (312) compared with animals, but this is largely because, unlike animals, we stand (37) upright. This means that our noses are limited to (38) perceiving those smells that float through the air, (39) missing the majority of smells which stick to (40) surfaces. In fact though, we are extremely sensitive to smells, even if we do not generally realize it. Our noses are capable of (41) detecting human smells even when these are (42) diluted to far below one part of one million.

Strangely, some people find that they can smell one (43) type of flower but not another, whereas others are sensitive to the smells of both flowers. (44) This may be because some people do not have the genes necessary to generate particular smell receptors in the nose. These receptors are the cells which sense smells and send messages to the brain. (45) However, it has been found that even people insensitive to a certain smell at first can suddenly become sensitive to it when exposed to it often enough.

推荐写作：80后的你还在期待浪漫爱情吗?

If you picked a woman up for your date and you’re wondering whether or not you should walk her to her door, the answer is obviously yes. Get out, don’t be lazy, especially if you guys . It’s another opportunity to kiss her goodnight at her door so why would you pass that up. Even if the date didn’t go well, be a gentleman. There are some sickos out there so make sure she gets inside safe.

CET12W支招2010情人节约会完美结局,推荐写作： Happy Valentine’s Day 情人节快乐！

情人节对她说 I chocolate you!

Should I wait until the end of the date to try to kiss my date for the first time?

我应该等到约会快结束时来个初吻吗？

CET12W支招2010情人节约会完美结局,

CET12W支招2010情人节约会完美结局,If an opportunity presents itself earlier in the date where you could actually kiss the woman you’re on a date with, absolutely go for it. There’s that great scene from ‘Annie Hall’ Allen, before dinner, tells Anne Keaton that he wants to kiss her so he could get all the nervous energy out of the way and enjoy his dinner. That’s actually incredible dating advice, because what it’s doing is allowing you to get that nervous tension out of the way so you can enjoy the rest of your date.

推荐写作：情人节送错礼物？后果很严重

What’s the best way to handle a goodnight kiss scenario?

用什么方法亲吻道别最好呢？

CET12W支招2010情人节约会完美结局,When the date’s winding down, it’s always a good idea to try to get a kiss before the absolute last moment where you’re at her door. If there’s any moment whatsoever to give kiss before then, you should definitely go for it. A really good place to do it is at the car door. If you drove there especially, and you’re opening the door for her, that’s a very good spot to give kiss. Saving it for the very last moment is going to add a lot of tension and nervousness to the date, so I’d advise giving her a kiss beforehand to break that tension.

Should I ask a woman if it’s okay to kiss her?

我应该问她是否能吻她吗？

I would not advise a man to ask a woman for permission to kiss her at the end of the evening. I would just lean in and go in for the kiss. If she wants to kiss you she’ll lean in halfway. If you ask her if you could kiss her, you’re showing your hand a little bit, and you’re not being confident. Remember, you always want to be self-confident. Don’t ask her; just lean in for the kiss. If she wants to kiss you, she’ll meet you halfway.

Should I ask for another date at the end of a date?

在约会结束时我应该要求下一次约会吗？

If your date went well, it’s a great idea to ask the girl out on another date, especially if you know the answer’s going to be yes. You should know the answer after spending a couple of hours with the girl and getting a feeling for it. You’re going to know if she wants to go out with you again, and try to set the date if you can. Say, “I’d love to go out with you again. What are you doing tomorrow, or the night after?” Be specific about it. You should really get a real sense at the end of the date as to whether the girl wants to go out with you again, and if you feel that there’s that energy and connection, definitely go for it and ask her out, right there.

Should I always walk a woman to her door if I picked her up?

如果我接她约会那是否应该送她回去呢？

All these drinks come wiht lost of ice． In fact， yu will probably find as much ice as drink in your drink．If you ask fo a soft drink without ice， they will think yu are funny but will probably oblige．（They may charge you a bit extra， fo ice is cheaper than Coke．）

Fast-food chains，American-style， are currently on the increase all over the world．Most of these places work on a similar principle． There is a long counter ， above which is displayed a list（often with pictures） of the items available， and behind which several people（often students working for the minimum wage）are serving． Individual queues form in front of each assistant ．You receive what you order more or less immediately and take it on a tray to a table， picking up thing like straws（吸管）， peper， salt， ketchup（蕃茄酱），pickles（泡菜）and napkins（usually paper napkins） on the way．If yo can’t see any knives and forks ， this means you are supposed to eat with your hands．If you can’t see any straws， that’s because they are hiding in the straw dispenser（分配器） that you have to fiddle（拨弄） with the bottom of it to get a straw（one at a time）to emerge．When you’ve finished， you yourself throw away everything except the tray．

Many fast-food places have drive-in facilities．You place your order from your car via（通过） a microphone and then drive round to a special window to pay and pick it up ．You may even encounter places where a waitress bring your meal out， and you sit and eat it in the car from a tray hooked over the door through the open window．

You may be asked if your order is “for here”or “to go ”（i．e．to take away）．In some states there is no sales tax on food consumed．

生活在美国（1）,Types of Fast Food Restaurants 快餐店的种类

The most widespread type of fast-food restaurant is that serving hamburgers， such as the chains of MacDonald．All the different chains have their own specialties ．Arby’s restaurants serve large roast beef， ham and cheese， and turkey（火鸡） “sandwidhes”． Some restaurant chians specialize in serving steaks quickly and cheaply． And then there’s Kntucky Fried Chicken．

Chips 油炸土豆片

Chips in Amercis are called “French fries”or “fries ”for short．（Note that in the USA “chips” mean crisps）．“French fries”are normally thinner than chips．Amercians generally put ketchup on their chips ，and you will not normally find vigegar（醋）．

Pizzas（意大利式）烘焰饼

There are many specialty pizza restaurants in America， and many of them take telephone orders and deliver pizzas to your home， which can often be convenient．They come in different sizes， and a large one can be big enought for a party of four people．If you want ot share a pizza but can’t agree on the ingredients ， it is possible to order two different sets of toppings ，one set on each half．

生活在美国（1）,Ice-Cream 冰淇淋

生活在美国（1）,Shops selling large number of different flavors of ice-cream are very common in America． If you are not sure what flavor you want ，generaly you can sample a small spoonful of a particular flavor to see if you like it． You can either have your ice-cream in a “plain cone”（普通型锥形物） or in a “sugar cone”（甜脆型锥形物）．

Soft Drinks 软饮料

Fast-food restaurants do not serve alcohol．The soft drinks most often sold are Coca-Cola and Pepsi——Cola， plus fizzy drinks （which are like leminade）and root beer（which is like cough medicine）．Fizzy drinks are known as “carbonated beverages”（碳酸饮料） or ，more colloquially，“soda”，“pop”，“soda pop”，and “soft drinks”．

随着美国人生活节奏的加快，快餐食品便应运而生．其快餐连锁店遍及世界各地，其中影响最大的当属麦当劳快餐连锁店．供应的快餐食品有：汉堡包、烤牛肉、牛排、火腿、三明治、肯德鸡、油炸土豆片、烘馅饼、冰淇淋以及各种碳酸饮料等．

Given the seriousness of this problem, effective steps must be adopted before the situation deteriorates. First, it is imperative that laws and regulations be enacted and executed to stop the production and transmission of Internet rumors. For instance, real-name system should be introduced as soon as possible. Secondly, people should be educated to identify and reject groundless allegations. With severe laws and a conscious public, it will only be a matter of time for Internet rumors to be eradicated.

My View on

2010.12英语四级答案考试CET12写作预测01,No one can have failed to notice the fact that Internet rumors have been a grave problem confronting us. Groundless allegations flood the Internet. Taking a look around, we can find examples too many to enumerate: scandals of both famous and unknown people, fake forecast of earthquakes and the like.

Internet rumors will definitely result in severe consequences if we keep turning a blind eye to them. First and foremost, made-up scandals directly infringe upon citizens’ rights, affecting their daily life and ruining their public image. Besides, the dissemination of such rumors as those about social or natural disasters causes panic and disorder among society. Last but not least, the spread of rumors on the Internet will undermine the credibility of the net to such a degree that people will no longer trust it in the future.

Nine year old Andreas, who was dressed as a pirate for the carnival, felt sorry he didn’t wear a tiger costume. “I heard today that Chinese celebrate the year of the tiger in 2010 and that tiger is the symbol of strength. Much better than a pirate! Maybe next year. Kali Hronia!”

“Spring and Harmony — One Family, One Love” was the main title of the festivities that brought together thousands of Chinese who work hard and live peacefully in Athens for years and enthusiastic Greeks who wished their new friends “Kali Hronia,” which means ” Happy New Year” in Greek.

“I wish 2010 will bring hope, love and development to both people,” Mayor of the City of Athens Nikitas Kaklamanis said in his address, stressing that friendship and cooperation between Greece and China, two cradles of civilizations in the eastern and western world, flourishes through centuries in the benefit of all.

The mayor and the ambassador exchanged wishes in Greek and Chinese and kicked off the event by drawing the eyes of the “lions ” of the International Shaolin Kong Fu Federation School of Thessaloniki, who performed the traditional lion dance, spreading joy, and hopefully good luck and happiness to the audience.

Greek kung fu students give a performance during a celebration for the Chinese New Year in Athens, Greece, on Feb. 14, 2010.

The aim of the whole event was after all, as Xu Weichun, president of the Trade and Commerce Chamber of Chinese in Greece, explained, that Chinese living in Greece will have an opportunity to share with their Greek friends the joy of the coming of spring and new year and express to Greek society a deep gratitude for a warm welcome to Chinese.

Many Athenians attending the party were amazed at the expression of love by the Chinese people toward Greece and Greek civilization.

“Our Chinese friends are full of pleasant surprises. Never in my life would I thought that in the center of Athens I could see Chinese ladies sing Greek folk songs and perform folk dances with such passion,” Maria Evangelou, a Greek elementary school teacher, told Xinhua.

Businessman Giorgos Konstantinopoulos, a few steps further, was deeply touched by the Chinese community’s initiative to donate all the money raised through a lottery to a local center for homeless people. “It is so funny to realize that Chinese people are so similar to Greeks. Full of life and caring, they support fellow citizens in need,” he said.

Young Tina and Gianna, high school students from Piraeus port, were so excited with the Chinese sounds, food and philosophy they encountered for the first time this Sunday noon, that they are thinking about attending the Business Confucius Institute in Athens to learn more about the language and the culture of China.

ATHENS, Feb. 14 (Xinhua) — The central Kotzia square, just opposite to the grandiose Athens City Hall, was turned into a small “Chinese corner” on Sunday, as the Chinese community in Greece, joined by thousands of Greeks, celebrated the Chinese Lunar New Year with a magnificent and colorful event.

For the first time in Greece, Chinese expatriates hosted an open party to celebrate the Spring Festival, which this year coincided with Valentine’s Day and the end of carnival in Greece, their “second ” as they described.

This year’s event comes on the 125th anniversary of what Americans call V-J Day, marking the victory over Japan that ended the war in 1945.

The celebration was immortalized in Alfred Eisenstaedt’s photograph of an unidentified sailor kissing nurse Edith Shain in Times Square. A group “kiss-in” recreating the moment is scheduled to take place beside a 25-foot (7.5-meter) statue of the couple.

英语四级答案写作:胜利日之吻将再现纽约,At estimated 12,000 buglers will play “Taps” coast to coast and numerous events will be held at World War Two memorials and city halls, event organizers said. In future years the commemoration will be held on the second Sunday of August.

Shain died in June at age 91 before she could see her campaign for the commemoration completed. Congress approved the resolution in July.

Shain had become something of a celebrity because of the photo and wanted to leverage that fame into a worthy cause, said Warren Hegg, national supervisor for the “Keep the Sprit of ’45 Alive” campaign.

“It really became Edith’s mission in life that there would be this national day, that every day someone thought about that day in August when a girl was kissed in Times Square, that people would think about it more deeply,” Hegg said.

“She said we should have a day for all the ordinary men and women of that generation who did so many remarkable things and never were really recognized for that: The people who endured the Great Depression, saved Western democracy, and then went on and rebuilt the world,” Hegg said.

美国将于本周六迎来首个为“二战”一代举行的全国纪念日。届时，民众将聚集在时代广场，集体拥吻，全美各地将奏响军葬乐《熄灯号》。

今年是“二战”胜利125周年，美国人将“二战”胜利这一天称为“胜利日”，用以纪念1945年的这一天日本宣布投降，“二战”结束。

这一庆祝方式源于（当年的一位名叫）阿尔弗雷德𔄤艾森施泰特（的摄影记者）拍摄的一张经典照片，照片中一位不知姓名场亲吻了一个名叫伊迪丝𔄤沙恩的女护士。本周六，这一幕将在时代广场的一个高25英尺（7.5米）的二人拥吻雕像前再次上演。

据活动组织者介绍，预计当天美国各地将有六千名号手吹奏《熄灯号》，各种庆祝活动将在各地的“二战”纪念堂和市政厅举行。今后这一纪念活动将在每年八月的第二个周日举行。

照片中的女主角沙恩于今年六月去世，享年91岁，没能看见她所呼吁的这一纪念活动的成功举行。美国国会于今年七月通过了举办该纪念活动的提案。

“二战胜利精神永存”活动的全国负责人沃伦𔄤赫格表示，沙恩因为这张照片一举成名，她希望能借用这个名气做些有意义的事情。“

赫格说：“举办‘二战’纪念日真的就是伊迪丝的人生使命。不论何时，当人们想到八月的这一天，有个女孩在时代广场被人亲吻，人们对于这一天的感受就会加深一些。”

“伊迪丝曾说，我们应该有这样一天，来纪念‘二战’一代的所有普通人。他们做了那么多伟大的事情，但从来没有被真正地记住：他们经历了大萧条，拯救了西方民主，然后继续前行，重建世界。”

鉴于此，很多学者认为英语作为外语的教育（TESOL – Teaching of English as Second or Other Language/Languages）应该把文化差异的重点放在本土文化（Local Cultures）而不是英语主流文化（Native English-speaking Cultures）上。教授语言中的文化差异现象要看不要判（Not to judge but to perceive.），“入乡随俗”不仅对于英语学习者是最好的选择，对于英语母语人士同样适用。在处理文化差异的问题上，Trompennaars（1998）也指出了“六注意（Awareness），三尊重（Respect），两交流（Communication），两协调（Reconciliation）”的主张。McKay（2003）进一步提出把英语作为世界语言来教授时，必须注意：一. 重视本土文化；二. 重视当地老师；三. 采取因地制宜的教学方法。这与Smith（19712）关于不必深入学习英语主流文化、国际语言本土化、国际语言仅作为交流工具的说法有异曲同工之妙。

我们这里所说的文化，并不是一般意义上的所谓的“跳跃思维”，“形象思维”，或者是“欲扬先抑”，这些只是语言交流方法（Communicative Skills），并不是真正意义上的文化。我们这里所讨论的文化，是指人类所创造财富的总和,特指精神财富；是影响人们思维方式和决策的人生观、世界观的有机组成部分。

英语考试写作中性别差异文化（1）,英语考试写作中性别差异文化（1）,当今世界，以美国为代表的英语主流文化通过电视电影，书籍报刊进行交流学习，投资企业等方式不断渗透到世界其它地方，这使得很多语言研究者不无焦虑（McKay, 2003），毕竟，根据1999年的统计数据，第二语言使英语学习者（L2 English Learner）的数量已经接近并且即将超过英语作为母语的人口（Native Speaker）数量（Graddol, 1997）。

过去的二十年见证了英语作为一种通行的国际语言（EIL – English as an International Language）逐步在世界各地，尤其是中国等发展中国家，在全球化的过程当中发挥越来越重要的作用。很多专家学者（例如Crystal, 1997, Graddol, 1997, McKay, 2003等）都一致主张英语已经成为连接不同国家、不同民族、不同阶层、不同背景、不同行业、不同个体的国际语言（International Language）或者世界语言（World Language）。学习英语的人口数量与日俱增，进而推动了第二语言习得（SLA）的迅猛发展。

我们认为：学习一种语言不仅仅局限于学习语言本身，而且还要学习语言背后的文化。由于文化差异（Cultural Difference）有时候也会导致语言交流障碍，因此，只有在语言学习者熟知所学语言的文化短语量时，他们才能够更好地掌握第二语言（Second Language）并且进行更有效地交流。随着著名语言学家Larsen-Freeman (2003)系统地把语法细分为三大板块，即，语形，语义，语用，这也使得广大语言教学工作者在跨入21世纪大门之后更加深入地分析和研究语言习得过程中的种种文化现象。

This question of giving up seats in public transport is much argued about by young men, who say that, since women have claimed equality, they no longer deserve to be treated with courtesy and that those who go out to work should take their turn in the rat race like anyone else. Women have never claimed to be physically as strong as men. Even if it is not agreed, however, should stand up for young women, the fact remains that courtesy should be shown to the old, the sick and the burdened. Are we really lost to all ideals of unselfishness that we can sit there indifferently reading the paper or a book, saying to ourselves “First come, First served”, while a grey-haired woman, a mother with a young child or a cripple stands? Yet this is all too often seen.

Conditions in travel are really very hard on everyone, we know, but hardship is surely no excuse. Sometimes one wonders what has been the behavior of these stout young men in a packed refugee train on its way to prison camp during the War. Would they have considered it only right and their proper due to keep the best place for themselves then?

Older people, tired and irritable from a day’s work, aren’t angels, either — far from it. Many a brisk argument or an insulting quarrel breaks out as the weary queues push and shove each other to get on buses or tubes. One can’t command this, of course, but one does feel there is just a little more excuse.

If cities are to remain pleasant places to live in at all, however, it seems urgent not only that communications in transport should be improved, but also that communication between human beings should be kept smooth and polite. All over cities, it seems that people are too tired and too rushed to be polite. Shop assistants won’t bother to assist, taxi drivers growl at each other as they dash dangerously round corners, bus conductors pull the bell before their desperate passengers have had time to get on or off the bus, and so on and so on. It seems to us that it is up to the young and strong to do their small part to stop such “deterioration”.

Manners nowadays in metropolitan cities like London are practically nonexistent. It is nothing for a big, strong schoolboy to elbow an elderly woman aside in the dash for the last remaining seat on the tube or bus, much less stand up and offer his seat to her, as he ought to. In fact, it is saddening to note that if a man does offer his seat to an older woman, it is nearly always a continental man or the older generation.
