第三部分:阅读理解[HTSS](共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
A
Take a rapid look at someone,then look away.Do you realize you have made a statement?Hold the glance for a second longer,and you have made a different statement.Hold it for three seconds,and the meaning has changed again.For every social situation,there is an allowed time that you can hold a person’s look without being close,rude or dangerous.If you are on a lift,what stare time are you permitted?To answer this question,consider what you specially do.You very likely give other passengers a quick look to judge of them and to let them believe that you mean no harm.Since being close to another person suggests the possibility of communication,you need to give a signal telling others you want to be left alone.So you cut off eye contact(接触),what Dr.Erving Goffman(1963)calls “a dimming of the lights”.You look down at the floor,at the lift door,or anywhere but into another passenger's eyes.If you break the rule against staring at a stranger on a life,you’ll make the other person gradually uncomfortable,and you are likely to feel a bit strange yourself.
If you hold eye contact for more than 3 seconds,what are you telling another person?Much depends on the person and the situation.For instance,a man and a woman communicate interest in this matter.They may look at each other for about 3 seconds at a time,then drop their eyes down for 3 seconds,before letting their eyes meet again.But if one man gives another man a 3-second-plus stare,he signals,“I know you”,“I am interested in you,”or “You look strange and I am curious about you.”This type of stare often produces unfriendly feelings.
56.We can learn from the first paragraph that _______.
A.every glance has its meaning
B.staring at a person is an expression of interest
C.a glance longer than 3 seconds is unacceptable
D.a glance carries more meaning than words
57.If you want to be left alone on a lift,the best thing to do is _______.
A.to look into another person’s eyes honestly
B.to avoid eye contact with other passengers
C.to give a signal that you are not dangerous
D.to keep a distance from other passengers
58.By“a dimming of the lights”,Dr.Erving Goffman means“_______”.
A.closing one’s eyes B.turning off the lights
C.stopping staring at others D.reducing stare time to the least
59.The passage mainly discusses _______.
A.the limited time of eye contact
B.the passing of ideas through eye contact
C.proper manners in different social situations
D.the role of eye contact in inter-personal communication
B
Recent researches show that Hong Kong is still “the best place to do business” and most foreign investors(投资者)say that they want to increase investment and continue business after the handover on July 1.
It is reported that 93% of the British companies will still be operating in the year 2000 and 70% will add to their business.Only 7% said they are unsure.Most British companies believe that after the handover the business will at least remain unchanged.Britain is so far the largest investor in Hong Kong with an investment of $40 billion,followed by Japan with $14.3 billion and the United States with $12 billion.

Researches show that the number of foreign companies operating in Hong Kong has been on a firm rise.It’s believed that Hong Kong has been,and will continue to be,a window for China.(reported on May 20th,1997)

(1)America started the Internet Revolution,but it is my belief that it cannot finish it.Instead China will finish it.America is a very old country,over 200 years old,and so it has many prejudices(偏见)and habits that defy logic(不合逻辑的习惯).For example,America is the only country that still does not use the metric system(米制).Because of such prejudices and habits,America cannot finish the Internet Revolution.
