Dear Editor-in-Chief，
Congratulations on the 5th anniversary of Global Mirror!
I’m a regular reader of your newspaper.I like it very much mainly for the following two reasons.First，it covers both national and international news，so that，by simply turning the pages，I can learn all important things that have happened during the week.Equally attractive are the success stories of world-famous people，which help me understand how a person can work hard to make the world a better place.
As a young student，I suggest that Global Mirror carry articles to guide us in our English learning，and I hope that it will become even more popular. Sincerely yours， Li Hua

Ⅰ.完形填空
When my husband，Bob，died very suddenly in January 2004，I received condolences from people I hadn’t heard from in years:letters，cards，flowers， 1 ，visits.I was overwhelmed with 2 yet uplifted by this 3 of love from family，friends and even 4 acquaintances.
One 5 touched me deeply.I received a letter from my best friend from sixth grade 6 high school.We had drifted somewhat since graduation in 1949，as she 7 in our home town and I had not.But it was the kind of 8 that could quickly resume 9 we lost touch for five or ten years.
Her husband，Pete，had 10 perhaps 20 years ago at a young age， 11 her with deep sorrow and heavy 12 :finding a job and 13 three young children.She and Pete，like Bob and I，had shared one of those 14 ，close，“love-of-your-life-you-can-never-forget” relationships. In her letter she 15 an anecdote about my mother (now long deceased).She wrote，“When Pete died，your dear mother 16 me and said，‘Trudy，I don’t know what to say...so I’ll just say I love you.’”
She closed her letter to me 17 my mother’s words of so long ago，“Bonnie，I don’t know what to say...so I’ll just say I love you.”

Facial expressions carry meaning that is determined by situations and relationships.For example，

in American culture(文化)the smile is in general an expression of pleasure.Yet it also has other uses.A woman’s smile at a police officer does not carry the same meaning as the smile she gives to a young child.A smile may show love or politeness.It can also hide true feelings.It often causes confusion(困惑)across cultures.For example，many people in Russia consider smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even improper.Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places(although this is less common in big cities).Some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places；some Americans believe that Russians don’t smile enough.In Southeast Asian cultures， a smile is frequently used to cover painful feelings.Vietnamese people may tell a sad story but end the story with a smile. Our faces show emotions(情感)，but we should not attempt to“read”people from another culture as we would “read” someone from our own culture.The fact that members of one culture do not express their emotions as openly as do members of another does not mean that they do not experience emotions.Rather，there are cultural differences in the amount of facial expressiveness permitted.For example，in public and in formal situations many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do.When with friends，Japanese and Americans seem to show their emotions similarly. It is difficult to generalize about Americans and facial expressiveness because of personal and cultural differences in the United States.People from certain cultural backgrounds in the United States seem to be more facially expressive than others.The key is to try not to judge people whose ways of showing emotion are different.If we judge according to our own cultural habits，we may make the mistake of “reading” the other person incorrectly.
1.What does the smile usually mean in the U.S.? A.Love. B.Politeness. C.Joy. D.Thankfulness.
2.The author mentions the smile of the Vietnamese to prove that a smile can . A.show friendliness to strangers B.be used to hide true feelings C.be used in the wrong places D.show personal habits 3.What should we do before attempting to “read” people?
A.Learn about their relations with others. B.Understand their cultural backgrounds. C.Find out about their past experience. D.Figure out what they will do next. 4.What would be the best title for the text? A.Cultural Differences B.Smiles and Relationships C.Facial Expressiveness D.Habits and Emotions 技巧点拨 高考阅读理解之五大常考考点(3) 第四点：比较关系常考 这点考生平时注意得很少，但是如果有心，回去看一看考过的卷子就会发现比较关系出现的地方，十之八九都会有考题出现，当然这里的比较关系及包括了比较级也包括了最高级。原因很简单，比较关系涉及几个事物之间的比较，能够很好地说明事物的特征，这样的句子，对于出题老师来说具有很大的诱惑力。 第五点：数字关系常考 文章中的数字，表明时间、特征量间的数量关系，对于说明事物特征具有文字所不能及的作用。 因此很多表示数字、数量关系的地方经常会成为出题点。 Ⅲ.七选五

话题33 人际关系
Ⅰ.【语篇解读】作者丈夫去世，她非常伤心，一个老朋友的安慰使她摆脱了悲痛，而当年这位朋友的丈夫去世时，作者的母亲给了她安慰，这种爱的传递使人们在生活中遇到困境的时候能坚强起来。 1.A 根据名词的并列关系推断，能够跟“信、卡片、鲜花”和“拜访”并列的只有“打电话”，说明人们以各种方式表达对她的安慰。notes当“便条”讲，与前面的“书信”在意义上重复。 2.C 作者丈夫去世当然是“悲痛”，由后面的转折词yet可排除A、B两项。作者的悲痛和亲朋的安慰形成对比关系。
3.D 此处作者表示来自亲朋的爱一下“涌来”，因此用outpouring。arrival一般表示人“到来”，contribution的意思是“贡献”。 4.B 作者不仅收到了来自家人、朋友的安慰，而且连“熟人”也来安慰她。mere用来加强语气，意思是“仅仅的”，其他三项都不能用来修饰“熟人”。 5.D 分析四个选项以及此处的语境，作者表达的意思是其中一条“信息”使作者深受感动。选“故事”“通知”等均不合语境。
6.C 此处表示两人是很多年的好朋友，表示两人从六年级一直到高中毕业都是好朋友。如果选D，from...to...则表示到中学的时候动作已经结束。 7.A 由后面作者的母亲安慰朋友判断，对方一直生活在自己的家乡。若选“工作”，文章没有信息依据。 8.A 两人虽然好多年没有联系，但两个人的友谊又恢复了。选“记忆”“和谐”“状态”都不合语境。 9.A 根据句子的逻辑关系判断，此处表示两人“尽管”已经很多年没有联系，用even if引导让步状语从句。as though“好像，仿佛”，用来引导方式状语从句；in case意思是“以免”，用来引导目的状语从句；if only后面往往跟虚拟语气，表示“要是??该多好”。 10.D 根据后面作者的母亲安慰朋友，以及要承担家庭的重任判断，她的丈夫去世了。其他选项缺乏信息依据。
11.B 此处是动词的习惯用法，表示“留给某人??”用leave sb.with sth.，其他动词无此用法。 12.C 从后面作者要找工作和抚养孩子判断，此处表示作者的朋友要承担繁重的家庭负担或责任。选“担心”“压力”“债务”都与下文信息不符。
13.B 由前面作者朋友的丈夫去世这一信息可知，她要单独抚养孩子，选“教育”“给??食物”“帮助”意义都太片面。
14.C 根据后面“love-of-your-life-you-can-never-forget” relationships可知，作者的朋友与她的丈夫之间的爱情是终生难忘的，即是少有的、亲密的关系。A项显然不是作者要表达的意思；B项意思是“原始的”。
15.D 作者此处表达的意思是朋友把作者母亲所做的事情也告诉了她，也就是“分享”了作者母亲的善举。选“提醒”“通知”都不合逻辑。 16.A 根据语境和常识判断，当西方人要安慰对方时往往会拥抱对方，选“支持”“拍打”“发现”等都不合语境。
17.C 作者的朋友在信中一次又一次提到作者母亲对她所说的话，也就是“重复”，目的是安慰作者。选“记录”“复制”“提到”等都不能表示朋友的良苦用心。 18.B 根据语境判断，作者读了朋友的来信“几乎”能听到母亲的话，这儿仅仅是一种虚景，因此选even，always，still都不合逻辑。
19.A 作者读了朋友的信后感叹这是多好的“安慰”，而不是“鼓励”，因此不选D。 20.D 作者的朋友把这一爱心和安慰又传递了作者，因此用pass sth.on to sb.，其他动词不合搭配和语境。
Ⅱ.【语篇解读】本文为一篇说明文。面部表情的含义取决于做表情的人所处的文化背景，一个同样的微笑在不同的文化背景下有着不同的含义。那么，我们应该如何正确“解读”来自于不同文化背景下的面部表情呢？
1.C 细节理解题。据第一段第二句“...in American culture(文化) the smile is in general an expression
