Smiling A so-called 'smile of respect'is seen as 37 and often regarded with suspicion( in Russia.A famous Russian proverb even states that'laughing without reason is a sign of idiocy'. Yet in countries like the United States,and Britain,smiling is often interpreted as a sign of openness,friendship and respect,and is 38used to break the ice. In a piece of research done on smiles across cultures,the researchers found that smiling individuals were considered more intelligent than non-smiling people in countries such as Germany,Switzerland,China and Malaysia.However,in countries like Russia,Japan,South Korea and Iran,pictures of smiling faces were39as less intelligent than the non-smiling ones.Meanwhile,in countries like India,Argentina and the Maldives,smiling was40 with dishonesty. Eye contact An American or British person might be looking their client in the eye to show that they are paying full attention to what is being said,but if that client is from Japan or Korea,they might find the direct eye contact awkward or even disrespectful.In parts of South America and Africa, prolonged(eye contact could also be seen as 41 authority.In the Middle East, eye contact across genders is considered 42,although eye contact within a gender could signify honesty and truthfulness. Having an increased 43 of the possible differences in expectations and behaviour can help us avoid cases of miscommunication,but it is vital that we also remember that cultural stereotypest(刻板印象)can be damaging to building good business relationships.Although national cultures could play a part in44 the way we behave and think,we are also largely influenced by the region we come from,the communities we associate with,our age and gender,our company culture and our individual experiences of the world.The knowledge of the _45 differences should therefore be something we keep at the back of our minds,rather than something that we use to label the individuals of an entire nation. 4 IV.Reading Comprehension Section A 15% Directions:For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A,B.

(A) Food production globally accounts for nearly 30%of greenhouse gas emissions,with the average American diet contributing more than 3kg of COz per person per day.Worse,we waste about 35%of the food we bring home.If we keep this up,it has been estimated the already unsustainable environmental cost of the food system will nearly double by 2050. Calculating the precise impact your individual food choices have on the environment isn't simple,but research suggests the actions we can take are-and they aren't just better for the environment,they're better for our health too.A 2021 CSIRO study found that sticking to healthy eating guidelines while choosing lower-carbon options could reduce the climate impact of our diets by as much as 42%.Another study,which conducted life-cycle assessments on more than 60,000 products,found that switching to lower-emission options within similar categories could bring our food footprints down by 71%. Prof Simone Pettigrew of the George Institute for Global Health says,"There are four biggies that sit at the top of the list for being the least sustainable:traditional red meats,dairy products, and then-perhaps more upsettingly-coffee and chocolate."Consumers,she says,can make a "massive,massive difference"by limiting or switching out those items.This might mean choosing poultry or seafood instead of lamb or pork,switching dairy milk for plant-based options,or choosing sweet treats with low or no cocoa content. When it comes to carbohydrates and fresh produce,Pettigrew says a solid rule of thumb is the better it is for you,the better it probably is for the planet."Choosing fresh fruits and vegetables to snack on rather than processed biscuits,for example,will dramatically reduce your diet's carbon footprint."Anything that is plant-based is going to be much less environmentally costly than anything animal-based,"she adds. Dr Lilly Lim-Camacho of CSIRO says one of the most helpful things consumers can do is "shop with intent,"Food waste accounts for more than a third of all household waste,so only purchasing what you need combined with small efforts such as using up leftover veggies will make your diet more sustainable,healthier and more economical. For those wanting to go further,apps such as ecoSwitch help compare the carbon ratings of specific items.The George Institute study found that opting for near-identical but lower-impact options alone could bring your food footprint down by 26%. 6 Neither expert wants to take the fun out of food,but they agree that by prioritizing our health we will naturally make better choices for the planet."It's a win-win,"says Pettigrew. 61.What can be learned from the studies mentioned in the passage? A.Healthy eating alone can eliminate half of diet-related emissions. B.Plant-based alternatives are the only effective solution. C.Lower-impact choices within similar categories can greatly reduce one's food footprint. D.Carbon-rating apps work better than changing eating habits. 62.What does Pettigrew mean by "the better it is for you,the better it probably is for the planet"? A.Consumers should prioritize taste over sustainability B.Organic food is always more expensive than processed food. C.Healthier food choices tend to have lower environmental costs. D.Plant-based foods are nutritionally superior to animal-based ones. 63. What does the passage suggest about making food consumption more sustainable? A.Consumers must give up favorite foods entirely to help the environment. B.Individual choices matter little without government intervention. C.Reducing food waste matters more than changing what we eat. D.Small changes in food selection and shopping can bring multiple benefits 64.What is the main purpose of the passage? A.To explain why food production is the largest source of greenhouse gases. B.To encourage practical dietary and shopping habits that benefit both health and the environment. C.To compare the environmental costs of different food production systems. D.To argue that governments should impose stricter rules on food manufacturers.

According to the UN.the average daily food supply available for a person in the rich world increased by over 20%benween 1961 and 2021.In that time,obesity rates have more than tripled; today,nearly one in three people globally is overweight. Now 12) are growing that the heavy processing may itself be harmful.A particular target is"ultra-processed foods"(UPFs).a relatively recent label put forward by Carlos Monteiro,a Brazilian scientist.Robert F.Kennedy junior.Donald Trump's nominee for secretary of health,has 13) processed food to "poison"and promised to reduce the share of UPFs in American diets.In November 2023 Colombia imposed a tax on highly processed foods and drinks.In Britain parllamentarians are investigating the effects of UPFs on people's health. In 2009 Dr Monteiro came up with a 14) system,called Nova,that sorts foods into four buckets depending on the degree of processing they undergo.The first group includes 15) processed foods like frtit and milk.The second covers basic ingredients like butter and sugar.Next are foods like canned vegetables and bread. The last group,UPFs,represent heavily processed items like fizzy drinks,sugary cereals and frozen pizzas.These are made with ingredients not typically found in a home kitchen,such as hydrogenated olls or flavouring agents.These are chemically 16) _and reassembled along with addltives like artificial colours to make the food more appealing.UPFs often contain 10 higher 17) of fat,sugar and salt than processed foods,which could explain their negative effects. Where those harms come from is still unclear,however.With so many competing factors that could also explain poor health-such as income,education and social conditions- observational studies alone cannot offer conclusive answers.A better way to assess the question is with a randomized controlled trial (RCT),where researchers 18) _a person's food intake and control for all other variables.Participants received either ultra-processed or minimally processed foods for two weeks and were free to eat as much or as little as they wanted. The results were 19).People on the ultra-processed diet ate about 500 more calories per day than those on the unprocessed one.They also gained an average of lkg over two weeks.Dr Hall says that though the study was short and conducted in an artificial setting,the results suggest that excess amounts of salt,sugar and fats might be fully to 20) for the ill effects of processed food. 11
