    In July 2003, the Three Parallel Rivers in Yunnan Province, the Ming Tombs of Beijing Municipality and the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum of Nanjing were added to the World Heritage List of Cultural Sites as part of Ming and Qing Imperial Mausoleums. (See Land and Natural Resources chapter for China’s World Heritage List of Natural Sites.) By the end of 2003, there were 29 World Heritage Sites in China, of which 21 were cultural heritage sites, 4 were natural sites and 4 cultural and natural sites. In 2004, China will make the first large-scale renovations on six world cultural heritage sites in Beijing - the Ming Tombs, the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven, the Summer Palace, and "Peking Man" Ruins at Zhoukoudian, which will be completed before 2008 as planned. Apart from that, China has a rich non-material cultural heritage, one of the richest in the world. Kunqu Opera and the art of playing the guqin, a seven-stringed zither, are among UNESCO’s list of masterpieces of Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity. UNESCO also designated 2002-2003 as the year to celebrate the millennial anniversary of the Chinese Tibetan epic King Gesar, the longest epic in the world.

Sweet smells banish pain

    The sweet smells of roses or almonds(桃樹) could take some of the pain out of your stay in hospital. But only if you’re a woman.

Serge Marchand and Pierre Arsenault at the University of Québec in Abitibi-Témiscamingue asked 20 men and 20 women to keep their hand in painfully hot water for as long as they could while smelling various smells. When given pleasant smells such as almond extract to sniff, the women experienced significantly less pain. Foul smells such as vinegar and durians seemed to slightly intensify (加強) their pain. However, the pain felt by the men was not affected by the smells.

Both men and women reported feeling happier in the presence of good smells, while bad smells put them in a worse mood. But this effect on the emotions can’t change the women’s perception（認(rèn)知能力）of pain. If so, the men should have responded in the same way.

Women are typically more sensitive to smells than men. But this also can’t explain why only women feel the pain-relief benefits, because the women in the study didn’t rate the intensity (強度) of smells differently from the men.

More at: Physiology and Behavior (vol 76, p 251)

   A. Why women are more sensitive to smells isn’t made clear.

   A. a news report                          B. a diary entry

   C. an experiment                          D. a story

63. Which of the following is correct about “this effect” (in paragraph 3)?

   A. Both good and bad smells put man and women in bad mood.

The importance of body language

When we connect with a person, we also have to make it clear to each other how the content of a spoken message needs to be made clear. Often words are inadequate for this purpose. For instance we do not tell each other that easily how we feel about each other, or how the words of a message need to be made clear. To make the meaning of our words clear we use body language. It is a language without spoken words and is therefore called non verbal communication. We use body language all the time, looking someone in the eyes means something different than not looking someone in the eyes.

Usually body language occurs unconsciously. Yet the body language we use decides the quality of our communication. It follows that therefore it would be good to become aware of our own and others’ body language. We can learn to use our body language for a purpose. As well as learn to understand body language of others. It is important to note that body language has different meanings in different cultures. How we can interpret body language depends on the situation, the culture, the relationship we have with the person as well as the gender of the other. This means that there is not one signal that has the same meaning all over the world. If you do not take this into account you may get yourself in some serious trouble! Body language is also interlinked with spoken language and a whole pattern of behavior from a person. Some groups have developed a whole specific body language which can be very open in its meaning and is used to communicate where the use of words may otherwise be difficult or dangerous. Examples of this are mostly groups, such as gay people, people in slavery, prisoners, etc. who have a history of prejudice against them from the dominant culture on.

68. The word “inadequate in the first paragraph means ________.

   A. not enough          B. not just         C. not fair        D. not pure

69. The non verbal communication in the first paragraph refers to _________.

     A. body language                                        B. spoken language 

C. oral language                                             D. written language

70. How we understand body language is linked to _________.

   ①situation       ②culture       ③ relationship      ④ gender

   A. ①②               B. ①②③        C. ①③④       D. ①②③④

71. According to the second part of the passage, which of the following is wrong?

   A. The body language is different in meaning in different cultures.

   B. One signal can express different meaning in different countries.

   C. You may fall into trouble if you ignore the meaning of the gestures in communication.

   D. Body language is not linked to spoken language or behavior.

Roman legend (傳說) says that Rome was built by Romulus and Remus, who were twin brothers. Their grandfather was Numitor, who was the king of an ancient Italian city. Numitor’s brother Amulius overthrew (推翻) him and became the new king. When the twin brothers were born, Amulius put them into a basket and threw them into the river for fear that they would grow up and take power from him.

The two brothers were saved and cared for by a she-wolf. The wolf fed the babies on her own milk. Later, they were found by a shepherd (牧羊人) who looked after them. When the twin brothers discovered the truth about their family, they killed Amulius and built a new city of their own. The brothers fought over who should be the ruler of the city, and Romulus killed Remus, so Rumulus became the first King of Rome.

   Actually, the building of Rome dates back to the early days of civilization. The Romans believed that their city was founded in the year 753BC and grew from a village. At that time, this city was ruled by kings. Then, the Romans drove the kings away and set up the Roman Republic around 509BC. In 27 BC, the Roman Republic fell and the Roman Empire was founded. Augustus became the first emperor. Throughout its history, Rome was ruled by different people, the most famous of which was Julius Caesar. The month July was named after him.
