11、 focuses mostly on sympathy and compassion for another. Perspective takers are able to step outside the limits of their own immediate, biased (偏见的) frames of preference, wrote the authors.

20、D)中，进出最佳答案并将答案写在答题卡上。A There are many factors which may have an influence on adults and children being able to lead a healthy life. Nowadays, people are very busy. Often, both parents work outside the home. Children are expected to take on more responsibility at home to help their parents. They also
21、 have sporting and leisure activities as well as school expectations. The business also adds another factor: the need to use cars to get from one place to another quickly. Today, society places a lot of emphasis on technology. Computers, DVDs. CDs, television, PlayStations and X-boxes have become ma
22、jor leisure activities, rather than traditional more active pursuits (追求). This has led to a more sedentary lifestyle. The media provide entertainment and information. Unfortunately, they also promote fast food which fits easily into busy lifestyles. It is much more convenient at times to buy a quic
23、k takeaway rather than prepare a meal. The media constantly bombard (轰炸) their audience with perfect body images, the need to buy the most fashionable clothes, the most up-to-date computer games, the best places to visit and the best things to do. Environments vary. We may be exposed to pollution, s
24、uch as cigarette smoke. This can be harmful to people who suffer from breathing difficulties. Environments where passive smoking is unavoidable make it difficult to lead a healthy life.

28、n general history classes. Most typical history courses concentrate on politics, economics and wars. But art history focuses on much more than this because art reflects not only the political values of a people, but also religious beliefs, emotions and psychology. In addition, information about the
29、daily activities of our ancestors can be provided by art. In short, art expresses the essential qualities of a time and a place, and a study of it clearly offers us a deeper understanding than can be found in most history books. In history books, objective information about the political life of a c
30、ountry is presented; that is, facts about politics are given, but opinions are not expressed. Art, on the other hand, is subjective: it reflects emotions and opinions. The great Spanish painter Francisco Goya was perhaps the first truly political artist. In his well-known painting The Third of May,
31、1808, he criticized the Spanish government for its abuse (滥用) of power over people. In the same way, art can reflect a cultures religious beliefs. For hundreds of years in Europe, religious art had been almost the only type of art that existed. Churches and other religious buildings were filled with
32、 paintings that described people and stories from the Bible. Although most people couldnt read, they could still understand the Bible stories in the pictures on walls of churches. By contrast, one of the main characteristics of art in the Middle East was, and still is, its absence of human and anima
33、l images. This reflects the Islamic belief that statues are not holy.60. More can be learned about a culture from a study of art history than general history because _. A. art history shows us nothing but the political values B. general history only focuses on politics C. art history gives us an ins
34、ight (洞察力) into the essential qualities of a time and a place D. general history concerns only religious beliefs, emotions and psychology61. Art is subjective in that _. A. a personal and emotional view of history is presented through it B. it only reflects peoples anger or sadness about social prob
35、lems C. it can easily arouse peoples anger about their government D. artists were or are religious, who reflect only the religious aspect of the society62. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A. In history books political views of people are entirely presented. B. Fra
36、ncisco Goya expressed his religious belief in his painting The Third of May, 1808. C. In the Middle East, you can hardly find animal or human figures on palaces or other building. D. For centuries in Europe, painters had only painted on walls of churches or other religious buildings.63. The passage
37、mainly discusses _. A. the development of art history B. the difference between general history and art history C. what we can learn from art D. the influence of artists on art historyC Nonverbal (非语言的) communication has to do with gestures, movements and closeness of two people when they are talkin
38、g. The scientists say that those gestures, movements and so on have meaning which words do not carry. For example, the body distance between two speakers can be important. North Americans often complain that South Americans are unfriendly because they tend to stand close to the North American when s
39、peaking, while the South American often considers the North American to be cold or distant because he keeps a greater distance between himself and the person he is speaking to. The eye contact provides another example of what we are calling nonverbal communication. Scientists have observed that ther
40、e is more eye contact between people who like each other than there is between people who dont like each other. The length of time that the person whom you are speaking to looks at your eyes indicates the amount of interest he has in the things you are talking about. On the other hand, too long a ga
41、ze (凝视) can make people uncomfortable. The eyes apparently play a great part in nonverbal communication. Genuine warmth or interest, shyness or confidence can often be seen in the eyes. We do not always consider a smile to be a sign of friendliness. Someone who is always smiling, and with little app
42、arent reasons, often makes us uneasy.64. According to the passage, nonverbal communication _. A. is a method often used by people who cannot speak B. can tell something that words cannot C. can be used to talk with people who cannot bear D. is less used than words65. The South American _.
