Strong feelings arent something you display in pu
21、blic. So, you can imagine that I was unprepared for the outpouring of public grief at a Chinese funeral.My editorial team leader died recently after a short illness. He was 31. The news was so unexpected that it left us all shocked and upset. A female colleague burst into tears and cried piteously a
22、t her desk. Somehow we got through the days work. The next day was the funeral.Our big boss stepped forward to deliver a eulogy(悼词) and was soon in tears. She carried on, in Chinese of course, but at the end said in English: “There will be no more deadlines for you in heaven.“ Next came a long-term
23、colleague who also dissolved in tears but carried on with her speech despite being almost overcome by emotion. Then a close friend of the dead man paid tribute, weeping openly as he spoke. Sorrow is spreading. Me and women were now sobbing uncontrollably. Finally, the mans mother, supported between
24、two women, addressed her son in his coffin. She almost collapsed and had to be held up. We were invited to step forward to each lay a white rose on the casket. Our dead colleague looked as if he was taking a nap. At the end of the service I walked away from the funeral parlor stunned at the outpouri
25、ng of emotion.In the UK, families grieve privately and then try to hold it together and not break down at a funeral. Here in China it would seem that grieving is a public affair. It strikes me that it is more cathartic to cry your eyes out than try to keep it bottled up for fear of embarrassment, wh
26、ich is what many of us do in the West.Afterwards, a Chinese colleague told me that the lamenting at the funeral had been restrained(克制) by Chinese standards. In some rural areas, she said, people used to be paid to mourn noisily. This struck me like something out of novel by Charles Dickens. But we
27、have all seen on TV scenes of grief-stricken people in Gaza and the West Bank, in Afghanistan, Iraq and the relatives of victims of terrorist bombings around the world. Chinese grief is no different. I realized that its the reserved British way of mourning that is out of step with the rest of the wo
28、rld.41. At the funeral, _.A. five individuals made speeches B. the bosss speech was best thought ofC. the writer was astonished by the scene D. everyone was crying out loudly42. According to the writer, people in the West _. A. prefer to control their sadness in public B. cry their eyes out at the p
29、ublic funeralC. are not willing to be sad for the dead D. have better way to express sadness43. It is implied that _. A. Chinese express their sadness quite unlike other peoplesB. the English might cry noisily for the dead in Dickens timeC. victims of terrorist bombings should be greatly honoredD. E
30、nglish funeral culture is more civilized than the others 44. This passage talks mainly about_.A. an editors death B. funeral customs C. cultural differences D. western ways of grief BIn winter Hammerfest is a thirty-hour ride by bus from Oslo, though why anyone would want to go there in winter is a
31、question worth considering. It is on the edge of the world, the northernmost town in Europe, as far from London as London is from Tunis, a place of dark and cruel winters, where the sun sinks into the Arctic Ocean in November and does not rise again for ten weeks.I wanted to see the Northern Lights.
32、 Also, I had long harboured a half-formed urge toexperience what life was like in such a remote and forbidding place. Sitting at home in England with a glass of whisky and a book of maps, this had seemed an excellent idea. But now as I picked my way through the grey, late-December slush（融雪） of Oslo
33、I was beginning to have my doubts.Things had not started well. I had overslept at the hotel, missing breakfast, and had to leap into my clothes. I couldnt find a cab and had to drag my unreasonably overweighted bag eight blocks through slush to the central bus station. I had had huge difficulty pers
34、uading the staff at the Kreditkassen Bank on Karl Johans Gate to cash sufficient travellers cheques to pay the overcharged 1,200-kroner bus fare-they simply could not be made to grasp that the William McGuire Bryson on my passport and the Bill Bryson on my travellers cheques were both me-and now her
35、e I was arriving at the station two minutes before departure, breathless and steaming from the endless uphill exertion（费力）that is my life, and the girl at the ticket counter was telling me that she had no record of my reservation.“This isnt happening,“ I said. “Im still at home in England enjoying C
36、hristmasPass me adrop more port, will you, darling?“ Actually, I said, “There must be some mistake. Please lookagain.“The girl studied the passenger list. “No, Mr Bryson, your name is not here”But I could see it, even upside-down. “There it is, second from the bottom.”“No,“ the girl decided, “that s
37、ays Bemt Bjornson. Thats a Norwegian name”“It doesnt say Bernt Bjornson. It says Bill Bryson. Look at the loop（圆圈） of the y, the twoIs. Miss, please.“ But she wouldnt have it. “If I miss this bus when does the next one go?“Next week at the same time ， ，Oh, splendid.“Miss, believe me, it says Bill Br
38、yson.“No, it doesnt.“Miss, look, Ive come from England. Im carrying some medicine that could save a childslife.”She didnt buy this. “I want to see the manager.“Hes in Stavanger.”“Listen, I made a reservation by telephoneIf I dont get on this bus Im going to write a letter to your manager that will c
39、ast a shadow over your career prospects（前景）for the rest of this century.“ This clearly did not alarm her. Then it occurred to me. “If this Bemt Bjornson doesnt show up, can I have his seat?“Sure.”Why dont I think of these things in the first place and save myself the suffering? “Thank you,“ I said,
40、and dragged my bag outside.45. What words can best describe Hammerfest in winter?A. Grey and dirty. B. Dark and cold.C. Unfriendly and expensive. D. Wild and forbidden.46 Why did the author mention the Kreditkassen Bank on Karl Johans Gate?A. To suggest that people there could be ridiculous and stub
41、born.B. To introduce the cultural differences in northern Europe and England.C. To give an example of an interesting story during his journey.D. To indicate that the bus fare was very expensive47 What could be inferred from the passage?A. The author booked his bus ticket with a Norwegian name.B. The
42、 author paid the bus fare by travellers cheque.C. The author would hopefully get on the busD. The girl at the ticket counter cared about the authors complaints.48 According to the last paragraph, the author probably feltat that moment.A. embarrassed B. contented C. regretful D. grateful49 We can lea
43、rn from the passage thatA. the authors journey to the north was not worthwhileB. the Europeans didnt welcome visitorsC. the author wrote a letter to the girls managerD. the authors journey to the north was not smoothCCommon phrases like “ no pains, no gains” give the impression that we ought to be s
44、uffering while we study. Its almost as though the only way to know if were putting in enough work is the sense of hardship we bear.When we havent taken the time to come up with another idea, all we know how to do is shut ourselves in a room with a book. Its no surprise that we find revision boring a
45、nd difficult. Just as children learn from playing, we can learn from doing, or at least from study techniques that interest us, rather than make us switch off.Shutting yourself away can make you learn to hate studying. This leads to a situation where instead of being able to concentrate on your work
46、, you are troubled by how unfair it is that you must study.When you hate your work its very difficult to make yourself star, or approach it with any kind of structure or enthusiasm. This can be part of a vicious cycle(恶性循环) that traps you into ineffective revision, your poor progress fuelling furthe
47、r annoyance.Just being around other people really helps fight against feelings of loneliness and, thankfully, its perfectly possible to work in the company of other people. We just need to learn how to deal with distractions(使人分心的事物).Its not necessary to avoid all company, just idle(懒散的) company. St
48、udying in the same room as someone who is ironing or working out is perfectly possible. People who are bored and looking to be distracted, however, are terrible to work around. They constantly try to keep others in conversation.Its also a good idea to avoid the company of people involved in activities that you would rather be doing than studying. Working while sitting next to someone playing video g
