5、易十六被處以死刑。幾個(gè)月后，他的妻子，瑪麗也被處以死刑。法國大革命令歐洲其它國家的國王感到害怕。奧地利和普魯士的軍隊(duì)進(jìn)入了法國。法國人民組織起了軍來保衛(wèi)祖國，革命陷入了一個(gè)艱辛階段。成千上萬的人犧牲了。最后，權(quán)力落入了拿破侖波拿巴手中。6.Whats this passageabout這篇文章主要講了什么？A. France.B.

Racingthroughdaytimemeals ispart ofthepaceof lifeinthiscountry.一個(gè)外國人對(duì)于美國的第一印象很有可能是每個(gè)人都在壓力下

9、匆匆忙忙。城市里的人總是表現(xiàn)得匆匆忙忙不知疲倦的，為了盡快做完一件事情，他們會(huì)在店里拼命引起店員的注意或者用胳膊肘推搡別人。白天匆忙就餐也是這個(gè)國家生活節(jié)奏的一個(gè)局部。Workingtime isconsidered precious. Others in public eating places arewaiting foryouto finishsothat they toocanbeservedandgetbacktoworkwithinthetimeallowed.Eachpersonhurriestomakeroomforthene*t person. If youdont, wai

10、ters willhurryyou.工作時(shí)間被認(rèn)為是很珍貴的。在一些公共飲食場(chǎng)所，其他人會(huì)等在你旁邊等你吃完，這樣大家都可以得到效勞，并趕在規(guī)定的時(shí)間回去工作。每個(gè)人都會(huì)盡快給下一個(gè)人騰出地方。如果你不這樣，侍者會(huì)催促你的。Youalsofinddrivers willbeabruptandthatpeoplewillpushpast you.Youwillmisssmiles,brief conversations,andsmallcourtesieswithstrangers.Donttakeitpersonally.Thisisbecausepeoplevaluetime highly,

11、 andtheyresent someone else wasting it beyonda certaincourtesy point.你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)司機(jī)也都很匆忙，人們從你身邊匆匆走過。你會(huì)錯(cuò)過一些微笑，簡(jiǎn)短的交談和一些與陌生人的小禮節(jié)。不要在意，這是因?yàn)樗麄兎浅Ｕ湎r(shí)間，而且他們認(rèn)為一旦太注重這些社交禮節(jié)就是浪費(fèi)時(shí)間。Theviewoftimeaffectstheimportanceweattachtopatience.IntheAmericansystemofvalues,patience isnotahighpriority.Manyofushavewhatmightbecalledash

13、慮的。我們中的很多人被稱為脾氣火爆。如果我們覺得時(shí)間在毫無意義的溜走，既沒有娛樂價(jià)值，工作價(jià)值，也不在休息，那就會(huì)開場(chǎng)不停地徘徊。那些來自時(shí)間觀念不同的國家的人發(fā)現(xiàn)他們?cè)谏虡I(yè)和日常生活中最困難的就是對(duì)時(shí)間節(jié)奏的適應(yīng)。ManynewerstotheStateswillmisstheopeningcourtesyofabusinesscall,fore*ample,theywill misstheritualsocializingthatgoeswithawelingcupofteaorcoffeetheymaybetraditionalintheirown country.Theymaymiss

15、start talkingbusinessveryquickly.(348 words)許多剛到美國來的人都會(huì)想念他們?cè)谏虡I(yè)會(huì)談中一些開場(chǎng)禮節(jié)。舉個(gè)例子，他們會(huì)想念歡送你到來而泡的一杯茶或咖啡這樣的社交禮儀，這在他們國家是常規(guī)禮儀。他們會(huì)想念在咖啡屋悠閑的會(huì)談。而通常，美國人不會(huì)與來訪者在這么悠閑的環(huán)境中進(jìn)展一些冗長的小會(huì)談。對(duì)于同事，我們總是看他過去的表現(xiàn)而不是與他的社交禮儀。因?yàn)槲覀円话愣际歉⒅貙I(yè)性的，而不是社交性的，因此我們總是很快進(jìn)入正題。-. z11.

30、vehelped ties.但他們的關(guān)系在上個(gè)世紀(jì)也經(jīng)歷了幾番起落。僅去年，對(duì)伊拉克戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)問題進(jìn)展了劇烈的爭(zhēng)論-英國首相布萊爾支持而法國總統(tǒng)希拉克反對(duì)。國際會(huì)議中，這種別扭在布萊爾和希拉克的身體語言中表現(xiàn)得很明顯。當(dāng)法國領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人頻頻與德國總理格哈特施羅德?lián)肀r(shí)，布萊爾只得到了握手。然而，有些政治專家說正是伊拉克戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)促進(jìn)了兩國的關(guān)系。Thehistoryofdivisionsmaywellbebecauseoftheverydifferentwaysinwhichthetwosidesseethe world.Butthisdoesntstop12millionBritonstakingholida
