11．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组卷：0引用：2难度：0.6 -
12．The Brown Bear My wife Laura and I were on the beach，with three of our children，taking pictures of shore birds near our home in Alaska when we spotted a bear．The bear was thin and small，moving aimlessly．
Just a few minutes later，I heard my daughter shouting，"Dad!The bear is right behind us!"An aggressive bear will usually rush forward to frighten away its enemy but would suddenly stop at the last minute．This one was silent and its ears pinned back-the sign of an animal that is going in for the kill．And it was a cold April day．The bear behaved abnormally，probably because of hunger．
I held my camera tripod（三脚架） in both hands to form a barrier as the bear rushed into me．Its huge head was level with my chest and shoulders，and the tripod stuck across its mouth．It bit down and I found myself supporting its weight．I knew I would not be able to hold it for long．
Even so，this was a fight I had to win：I was all that stood between the bear and my family，who would stand little chance of running faster than a brown bear．
The bear hit at the camera，cutting it off the tripod．I raised my left arm to protect my face；the beast held tightly on the tripod and pressed it into my side．My arm could not move，and I sensed that my bones were going to break．
Drawing back my free hand，I struck the bear as hard as I could for five or six times．The bear opened its mouth and I grasped its fur，trying to push it away．I was actually wrestling with the bear at this point．Then，as suddenly as it had begun，the fight ended．The bear moved back toward the forest，before returning for another attack-the first time I felt panic．
Apparently satisfied that we caused no further threat，the bear moved off，destroying a fence as it went．My arm was injured，but the outcome for us could hardly have been better．I'm proud that my family remained clear-headed when panic could have led to a very different outcome．
（1）The brown bear approached the family in order to．
A．catch shore birds
B．start an attack
C．protect the children
D．set up a barrier for itself
（2）The bear finally went away after it．
A．felt safe
B．got injured
C．found some food
D．took away the camera
（3）The writer and his family survived mainly due to their．
A．pride
B．patience
C．calmness
D．Cautiousness组卷：5引用：5难度：0.5
