Cultural icons are hard to define, but we know them when we see them.They are people who manage to go beyond celebrity, who are legendary, who somehow manage to become mythic,.But what makes some figures icons and others mere celebrities？ That’s hard to answer.In part, their lives have the quality of a story to tell.For instance, the beautiful young Diana Spencer who at 19 married a prince, renounced marriage and the throne, and died at the moment she found true love.Good looks certainly help.So does a special indefinable charm, with the help of the media.But nothing confirms an icon more than a tragic death—such as Martin Luther King, Jr., John F.Kennedy, and Princess Diana.
1.The passage mainly deals with ________.
A.life and death
B.heroes and heroines
C.heroes and icons
D.icons and celebrities
2.Heroes and heroines are usually ________.
A.courageous
B.good examples to follow
C.self-sacrificing
D.all of the above
3.Which of the following statements is wrong？()
A.Poverty in America has been eased with the economic growth
B.Superstars are famous for being famous
C.One’s look can contribute to being famous
D.Heroes and heroines can only emerge in war times
4.Beautiful young Diana Spencer found her genuine love ________.
A.when she was 19
B.when she became a princess
C.just before her death
D.after she gave birth to a prince
5.What is more likely to set an icon’s status？()

第2题
Ineffective communication can be disastrous.There is a famous story of a British Army Commander who sent the message "Send reinforcements,we're going to advance." back to his Command Center,through a long chain of subordinates.When the message finally reached the Command Center,it had "mutated" to become -- "Send three and four-pence,we're going to a dance." The reinforcements never arrived.
You can demonstrate this same principle,albeit on a less dramatic scale,by trying to play Chinese Whispers with more than 20 people.It is highly unlikely the same message you started with will be the one you end with.
In a business,there are three main types of communication failure.Each has its own indicative signs.
•The first type is known as allocative failure.This occurs when a firm is not gathering enough intelligence about its market or (most often),the information is not reaching the right points.The firm will not be allocating resources in step with the shifts in demand.If demand is rising but the firm is suffering from allocative communication failure,then stocks will fall and there will be understaffing.If the inverse happens,there will be a surplus of stocks and overstaffing.
•The second type is executive failure,where communication to trigger specific events/actions is either late,lacking or in error.The symptoms of this are a general loss of direction in the company or departments,a loss of co-ordination and an increase in complaints from customers as things happen late or not at all.
•The final type is human failure.This occurs when the general culture of a business or the relationships between particular individuals or departments do not foster effective communication.This leads to alienated staff,an increase in staff turnover,an increase in absenteeism and general frustration among staff.Creativity,especially that which takes place across departmental boundaries,is likely to suffer hugely as team synergy slips.
1.Confirming reception of the sent messages means（）.
A.the messages are sent to right receivers
B.the messages are correctly understood
C.the messages are correctly understood by right receivers
2.In the famous British Army Commander story,which step probably did NOT go wrong in the communication chain?（）
A.Conceiving.
B.Sending.
C.Receiving.
3.What is Chinese whispers?（）
A.Who whispers in Chinese.
B.A game to pass message around in a whisper.
C.Chinese people who don't normally talk very loudly.
4.Allocative failure does NOT happen when（）.
A.the right information goes to the right place
B.a company gathers false information
C.the correct information is not received by the right department or person
5.According to the passage,which of the following cases does NOT belong to human failure?（）
A.Decreasing creativity across departments.
B.Inadequate communication between departments.
C.Increasing customer complaints.

you would rather not have anyone else know about.For example if in the past someone in Dad's family
had been arrested for stealing a horse it would be 'a skeleton in his family's closet'.He really wouldn't
want any neighbor to know about it.”
“Why pick on my family？” Jessica's father said with anger.“Your family history isn't so good you
know.Wasn't your great-great-grandfather a prisoner who was transported to Australia for his crimes？ ”“Yes but people these days say that you are not a real Australian unless your ancestors arrived as
prisoners.” “Gosh sorry I asked.I think I understand now ”Jessica cut in before things grew worse.

ironing clothes and every now and then she glared at her husband who hid behind newspaper pretending
to read.When she finished she gathered the freshly pressed clothes in her arms and walked to Jessica's
closet.Just as she opened the door and reached in to hang a skirt a bony arm stuck out from the dark
depths and a bundle of white bones fell to the floor.Jessica's mother sank into a faint (晕倒) waking
only when Jessica's put a cold wet cloth on her forehead.She looked up to see the worried faces of her
husband and daughter.
“What happened？ Where am I？ ”she asked.“You just destroyed the school's skeleton Mum”
explained Jessica.“I brought it home to help me with my health project.I meant to tell you but it seemed
that as soon as I mentioned skeletons and closets it caused a problem between you and Dad.” Jessica

第10题
Some growth stems from a commitment by governments and farsighted businesses to fund cleaner energy sources. But increasingly the story is about the plummeting prices of renewables, especially wind and solar. The cost of solar panels has dropped by 80 percent and the cost of wind turbines by close to one-third in the past eight years.
In many parts of the world renewable energy is already a principal energy source. In Scotland, for example, wind turbines provide enough electricity to power 95 percent of homes. While the rest of the world takes the lead, notably China and Europe, the United States is also seeing a remarkable shift. In March, for the first time, wind and solar power accounted for more than 10 percent of the power generated in the US, reported the US Energy Information Administration.
President Trump has underlined fossil fuels – especially coal – as the path to economic growth. In a recent speech in Iowa, he dismissed wind power as an unreliable energy source. But that message did not play well with many in Iowa, where wind turbines dot the fields and provide 36 percent of the state’s electricity generation – and where tech giants like Microsoft are being attracted by the availability of clean energy to power their data centers.
The question "what happens when the wind doesn’t blow or the sun doesn’t shine？" has provided a quick put-down for skeptics. But a boost in the storage capacity of batteries is making their ability to keep power flowing around the clock more likely.
The advance is driven in part by vehicle manufacturers, who are placing big bets on battery-powered electric vehicles. Although electric cars are still a rarity on roads now, this massive investment could change the picture rapidly in coming years.
While there’s a long way to go, the trend lines for renewables are spiking. The pace of change in energy sources appears to be speeding up – perhaps just in time to have a meaningful effect in slowing climate change. What Washington does – or doesn’t do – to promote alternative energy may mean less and less at a time of a global shift in thought.
26、The word "plummeting" (Line 3, Para 2) is closest in meaning to_____.
A.stabilizing
B.changing
C.falling
D.rising
According to Paragraph 3,the use of renewable energy in America______.A.is progressing notably
B.is as extensive as in Europe
C.faces many challenges
D.has proved to be impractical
It can be learned that in Iowa,_____.A.wind is a widely used energy source
B.wind energy has replaced fossil fuels
C.tech giants are investing in clean energy
D.there is a shortage of clean energy supply
Which of the following is true about clean energy according to Paragraphs 5&6？A.Its application has boosted battery storage
B.It is commonly used in car manufacturing
C.Its continuous supply is becoming a reality
D.Its sustainable exploitation will remain difficult
It can be inferred from the last paragraph that renewable energy_____.A.will bring the US closer to other countries
B.will accelerate global environmental change
C.is not really encouraged by the US government
D.is not competitive with regard to its cost

with people from other cultures.
Companies typically rely on the following elements in designing web-based training:
1. Detailed Scenarios. Much of the training materials consists of a detailed, realistic story that is tied into elements of the learner's background; i.e., the session becomes more than a briefing; it becomes a narrated experience full of learning moments for participants. This is made possible by the ability of the web to store and circulate a lot of information instantaneously around the world.
2. Gradual Delivery. The ability to control the flow of information to the participant supports the learning process in a number of ways. Firstly, the participant is allowed to fit the training into his/her schedule. Secondly, the real-life flow of information is mimicked (模仿) and a higher degree of realism is achieved.
3. Support. A set of detailed materials is provided to the participants 24 hours a day. At any hour and at any location, participants can check their perceptions against the materials, reinforce learning from a dimly recalled lesson, or seek feedback on an important point or issue.
4. Relevant Exercises. Participants can be provided with topical exercises and activities the level of which can be adjusted depending upon how the participant has invested in the training.
5. Online Discussions. Sessions can be simulcast (同时播放) to hundreds of participants around the world. The lack of face-to-face interaction can be remedied by having discussing groups where participants can share their experiences with each other. The pooled (共享的) learning experience is stronger than one with a solitary (单个的) participant.
26. The Internet ().
A. helps develop skills for cross-cultural interaction
B. can replace real-life interaction as an important tool
C. doesn't help prepare people for the international marketplace
27. The Internet can ().
A. hold learners from everywhere in the world
B. be the place for every kind of meetings
C. store a lot of information happening in the world
28. Participants in on-line cultural training can be provided with topical exercises and activities ().
A. only in their own time and their own places
B. totally according to their different levels
C. depending on their investment in the training
29. The training program can be simulcast to hundreds of () around the world.
A. participants
B. sessions
C. continents
30. On-line programs with discussion groups can provide () that is stronger than one with a solitary participant.
A. face-to-face interaction
B. much feedback
C. shared learning experience
