Unit6 Crossing Cultures 单元检测卷 第一部分 听力（共20分，略） 第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Every country has special cultural traditions when meeting guests. These small polite behaviors show people’s warmth and respect. In Thailand, people put their hands together in front of their chests and bow slightly to greet others. This special greeting is called the “wai”. It is used to show kindness to strangers, friends and elders. In New Zealand, local Maori people have a traditional greeting. They press their noses and foreheads together softly. It stands for sharing breath and mutual trust. It is a way to show that they treat each other as true friends. All in all, greeting manners are simple but meaningful. They are the first step of friendly cross-cultural communication. 21. How do people greet others in Thailand? A. Shake hands warmly. B. Put hands together and bow. C. Press noses together. 22. What does the Maori greeting stand for? A. Trust and sharing. B. Respect for elders. C. Best wishes for life. 23. What is the best title for the passage? A. Special Cultural Greeting Manners B. Different Foreign Festivals C. How to Make Foreign Friends B When we travel abroad, knowing local dining customs can help us avoid embarrassment. In most European countries, people pay great attention to dining order and quietness. They start eating only after all people get their food. During the meal, they speak in low voices and never make chewing sounds. However, in some Mediterranean countries, dining is a relaxing and social activity. People enjoy talking and laughing during meals. They think a lively dining atmosphere shows happiness and closeness. This is quite different from the quiet dining style in Northern Europe. Many tourists feel puzzled by these opposite rules. In fact, no dining manner is right or wrong. They are just unique parts of local culture. The best way to behave well is to follow local people’s examples. 24. What do Northern European people stress during dinners? A. Loud talking. B. Quietness and order. C. Lively atmosphere. 25. What do Mediterranean people think of dining? A. It is just for eating food. B. It is a relaxing social activity. C. It needs strict silence. 26. The underlined word “puzzled” means “__________” in Chinese. A. 疑惑的 B. 兴奋的 C. 放松的 27. What is the writer’s opinion on different dining manners? A. Northern European manners are better. B. We should follow local dining customs. C. Lively meals are impolite. C Many students are interested in cross-cultural communication, but few of them know how to behave properly in foreign social situations. Actually, good cross-cultural manners depend on three key points. ①First, proper dressing. Casual clothes are suitable for daily meetings, while formal clothes are necessary for business meetings and award ceremonies. Dressing well shows your respect for the event. ②Second, correct conversation attitude. We should listen more and speak politely. We’d better avoid arguing about cultural differences. Instead, we can share our own culture and learn from others. ③Third, reasonable personal space. Different cultures have different standards of personal space. We should not touch or stand too close to foreign friends unless they allow it. In a word, mastering these simple rules can help us communicate with foreigners more confidently and smoothly. 28. What kind of clothes are needed for business meetings? A. Casual clothes. B. Sportswear. C. Formal clothes. 29. What should we do when we meet cultural differences? A. Argue with others. B. Learn and share. C. Refuse to accept them. 30. What is the structure of the passage? A. Total-Part-Total. B. Part-Total. C. Part-Total-Part. 31. What is the passage mainly talk about? A. How to choose daily clothes. B. Key points of cross-cultural manners. C. The importance of personal space. D Cultural misunderstanding is very common in cross-cultural communication. A small behavioral difference may cause a false impression. For example, nodding the head means “yes” in most countries, but it means “no” in some Southeast Asian countries. Many visitors make silly mistakes because of this difference. However, misunderstanding is not a terrible thing. It offers us a chance to learn new culture. When you find you have misunderstood local customs, you can explain politely and correct your behavior at once. Most local people will understand your situation and show tolerance. To avoid cultural misunderstanding, we should learn about local customs in advance before traveling or communication. Besides, keeping modest and open-minded is always the best policy. Cultural diversity makes the world colorful and wonderful. 32. Why do people easily make cultural mistakes? A. They are too careless. B. There are behavioral cultural differences. C. They refuse to learn new culture. 33. What should we do after cultural misunderstanding? A. Explain and correct. B. Keep silent. C. Argue for ourselves. 34. How can we avoid cultural misunderstanding? A. Never communicate with foreigners. B. Learn local customs ahead of time. C. Keep different opinions all the time. 35. What can we infer from the passage? A. Cultural differences bring no trouble. B. Open-mindedness helps cross-cultural communication. C. All cultural behaviors are the same. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。 Knowing how to communicate politely with foreigners is important for students.
