Passage Three
When you stretch out in the sun you can do one
of the three things: you can use no sun tan oil, an
ordinary sun tan oil; or Bergasol.
If you don't use any sun tan oil when you're in
the sun, you will burn surprisingly quickly. If you use
an ordinary sun tan oil, you will protect your skin to a lesser or greater degree.How much protection depends on the "protection-factor number" on the bottle. Some oils block out so many of the sun's rays and you can stay in the sun all day without burning but you won't go very brown,either.
Bergasol will protect your skin like an ordinary
sun tan oil. It also has a tan accelerator that speeds up the rate at which the sun activates the skin cells that produce melanin(黑色素). It is melanin that gives the skin its brown colour. Bergasol enables you to go
brown faster,am as the days pass the difference will become more obvious.Unfortunately, this special formulation isn't Cheap to prepare.So Bergasol is rather more expensive than ordinary sun tan oil. However, the price looks more attractive as you do.
Bergasoi
It makes you go brown faster
Protection Many people imagine that "cover-up" means you don't get a tan. Nothing to show for your holiday.
Not so. With "cover-up", you can get brown if
you want to. The point of "cover-up" is to protect
your skin from the harmful rays of the sun which,
according to the experts ,make your skin look older.

Passage Four
Ideas about polite behaviour differ from one culture to another.Some societies, such as America and
Australia,for example, are mobile and very open. People
here change jobs and move house quite often. As a m result, they have a lot of relationships that often last only ma short time, and they need to get to know people quickly. So it's normal to have friendly conversations with people that they have just met, and you can talk about things that other cultures would regard as
personal.
On the other hand, there are more crowded and less
mobile societies where long-term relationships are more important. A Malaysian or Mexican business person, for example,will want to get to know you very well before he or she feels happy to start business. But when you do get to know each other, the relationship becomes much deeper than it would in a mobile society.
To Americans, both Europeans and Asians seem cool and formal at first. On the other hand, as a passenger from a less mobile society puts it, it's no fun spending several hours next to a stranger who wants to tell you all about his or her life and asks you all sorts of
questions that you don't want to answer.
Cross-cultural differences aren't just a problem for travelers, but also for people in daily life. Some societies have " universalist'' cultures. These societies strongly respect rules, and they treat every person and situation in basically the same way. "Particularist" ( 強調特性的)societies also have rules, but they are less important than the society's unwritten ideas about what is right or wrong for a particular situation or a particular person. So the normal rules are changed to fit the needs of the situation or the importance of the person.
48. What can be learned from Paragraph 1?
A. People from a mobile society dislike talking about
personal affairs.
B. Short-term relationships are common in a mobile
society.
C. Americans tend to make more friends than people
from other cultures.
D. It is difficult for Americans and Australians to
communicate with strangers.
答案：B

A. Those who talk a lot about themselves.
B. Those who they know well enough.
C. Those who enjoy talking with strangers.
D. Those who want to do business with them.
答案：B
50. Which of the following is true about the rules in "particularist" societies?
A. They change to fit different situations.
B. People respect and obey them completely.
C. They don't exist.
D. No one obeys them.
答案：A
51. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. Polite behaviour varies with different cultures.
B. Less mobile societies have fewer rules.
C. People from mobile societies are more polite.
D. Cultural differences are important.
