Different cultures

The cultures of the East and the West really distinguish each other a lot. 1._____

The origin of the Eastern cultures is mainly from two countries: China and India. Both of the two cultures are developed by rivers—the Yellow River in China and the Indus River in India. 2.________

When the two mother rivers gave birth to the Eastern culture, another famous culture was brought up on the Mesopotamian Plain—the Mesopotamian Civilization. This civilization later on developed into the cultures of Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome. 3._______ Like the Chinese culture, the European culture also crossed waters. When the British settled down in America, their culture went with them over the Atlantic Ocean. So the American culture doesn't distinguish from the European culture a lot.

4.________ Take the language system for example. In the East, most languages belong to the pictographic language while the Western languages are mostly based on the Latin system. Other causes like human race difference counts as well. But what's more, due to the far distance and the steep, areas between the East and West, the two cultures seldom communicate until recent centuries. So they grew up totally in their own ways with almost no interference(干擾) from the other.

These differences are everywhere. 5.________ But different cultures make the world of 21st century more colourful. The cultural gap should not be the obstacle (障礙) to the civilization of human being. It ought to be the motivation of our going farther.

A.Let us work together to keep a variety of culture.

B.One important thing is to learn about other cultures.

C.And these two are well known as the base of the European culture.

D.At the same time, some other differences add to the cultural differences.

E.This is because the culture systems are two separate systems on the whole.

F.They helped the two cultures develop for centuries and form their own styles.

G.They are obvious and affect people's ways of thinking and their views of the world.

Bicycle Safety

Operation Always ride your bike in a safe, controlled manner on campus. Watch out for walkers and other bicyclists, and always use your lights in dark conditions.

Theft Prevention Always securely lock your bicycle to a bicycle rack---even if you are only away for a minute. Register your bike with the University Department of Public Safety. It’s fast, easy, and free. Registration permanently records your serial number, which is useful in the possible recovery of the bike stolen.

Equipment

Brakes Make sure that they are in good working order and adjusted properly.

Helmet It’s a necessity. Make sure your helmet meets current safety standards and fits properly.

Lights Always have a front headlight---visible at least 500 feet in front of the bike. A taillight is a good idea.

Food picked up just a few seconds after being dropped is less likely to contain bacteria than if it is left for longer periods of time, according to the findings of research carried out at Aston University's School of Life and Health Sciences. The findings suggest there may be some scientific basis to the '5 second rule' --- the belief about it being fine to eat food that has only had contact with the floor for five seconds or less. Although people have long followed the 5 second rule, until now it was unclear whether it actually helped.

The study, undertaken by final year Biology students and led by Anthony Hilton, Professor of Microbiology at Aston University, monitored the transfer of the common bacteria from a variety of indoor floor types such as carpet, cement floor to toast, pasta, biscuit and a sticky sweet when contact was made from 3 to 30 seconds. The results showed that: Time is a significant factor in the transfer of bacteria from a floor surface to a piece of food; and the type of flooring the food has been dropped on has an effect, with bacteria least likely to transfer from carpeted surfaces and most likely to transfer from cement flooring surfaces to moist foods making contact for more than 5 seconds. Professor Hilton said: "Consuming food dropped on the floor still carries an infection risk as it very much depends on which bacteria are present on the floor at the time.”

The Aston team also carried out a survey of the number of people who employ the five-second rule. The survey showed that: 87% of people surveyed said they would eat food dropped on the floor, or already have done so. 55% of those that would, or have, eaten food dropped in the floor are women. 81% of the women who would eat food from the floor would follow the 5 second rule. Professor Hilton added: "Our study showed surprisingly that a large majority of people are happy to consume dropped food, with women the most likely to do so. But they are also more likely to follow the 5 second rule, which our research has shown to be much more than an old wives tail."

1. Eating food dropped on the floor still carries an infection risk because it relies on________ at that time.

A. the type of bacteria B. the carpet

C. the cement floor D. the surface of table

2.The passage is developed probably by __________.

A. time B. space C. contrast D. example

3.How did Professor Hilton feel after analyzing how many people chose to eat dropped food?

A. Satisfied B. Astonished

C. Puzzled D. Upset

4.What is the main idea of this passage?

A. The food which is dropped on the floor can be eaten safely.

B. The bacteria have no negative effect on the safety of food.

C. A research on the safety of food dropped on the floor is undertaken.

D. People surveyed in the research are willing to accept the idea.

While you may think that being smart and talented would logically make someone successful in running a business, unfortunately, this is often not the case.

This problem starts back in school when the stressful “group projects” are first assigned .The smartest don’t want to risk their grade in the class by dividing the work equally and hoping that an average student does his part well. They just take over and do the whole project themselves.

And thus begins the smart-people work cycle. The smartest people do just about everything better than most everyone else until it comes to running a business. They are not better; they are screwed(束縛). A smart person who can’t stand someone else doing a job badly does everything himself. Then, he is stuck with the one-man band “job-business” and ends up not being able to grow. However, it is quite interesting and strange that some slackers(偷懶的人) are better suited to be a business leader than the “smart” people. They figured out early on to surround themselves with smart people who would do the work that they themselves don’t want to do.

Smart and talented people often have a gift for the unusual, complicated or different. They don’t like to follow the KISS principle (keep it simple, stupid), which is required to make a business succeed. Maybe you think the global presence of McDonald’s complex, but in fact, in the company, every single task is broken down into easy-to-follow steps and everything has been standardized. These successful companies have just a few smart enough people to run the majority of the tasks in a way that can’t be screwed up by their average employees. So, being smart or talented isn’t going to help you unless you can use your talent to figure out a way to simplify those tasks that will make a business successful.

Another issue with the smart people starting businesses is that they often have the most to lose. The smarter you are, the more choices you have available to you. You will be able to make a lot of money in various fields and have room in your career to become promoted. This means that when you start a business, you have a lot more to risk than those who are not equally smart. This is often referred to as the “golden handcuffs” dilemma.

So, don’t be surprised when the person “MOST Likely to Succeed” from high school ends up as an employee and it is one average student that finds success in his or her own business.

1.In group work, smart students often take over the whole project because they believe ______.

A. the work is not divided equally

B. they can perform better than others

C. the group projects are too stressful

D. average students are unwilling to take part

2.McDonald’s is used as an example to prove that ______.

A. a business calls for smart people’s talent

B. average employees can perform complex tasks

C. smart people are important for a successful business

D. simplified tasks are required for the success of a business

3.The underlined expression in Paragraph 5 refers to the situation where smart people ______.

A. have fewer choices in a company

B. risk more when starting business

C. are unwilling to put money to a business

D. can have a good income in many different fields

4.What is the best title for the passage?

A. Potentials for Success

B. Bases for Business

C. The Ordinary Achieve Bigger Success?

D. Talent Means Successful Business?
