【题目】你在会上说得太快了,以至于我几乎跟不上。

____________________

【答案】You spoke so fast at the meeting that I could hardly follow you.

【解析】

表示“如此……以至于……”用固定结构“so+形容词/副词that…”引导的结果状语从句。句子的主语是you,句子讲述过去发生的事用一般过去时态,谓语动词是spoke;动词用副词修饰,此处用fast表达“说得快”,状语“在会上”用介词短语at the meeting。从句的主语是I,谓语动词是could follow,此处用副词hardly修饰动词表示“几乎跟不上”,宾语是you。故答案为You spoke so fast at the meeting that I could hardly follow you.

【题目】 Do you know someone who has never been troubled by tests? Yeah, some people are lucky like that. But for most of us, taking tests can cause lot of bad feelings, Such as low confidence, being nervous, feeling down on yourself, trouble breathing, trouble sleeping or cold hands.

Spend moment thinking about a test you have to take. Do you have any of these feelings? If so, that might mean you're having some trouble dealing with the stress of the test.

Now that we know what stress feels like, let's talk about where test stress comes from. Here are a few of the biggest causes of test stress:

●Pressure from yourself. It's important to do your best and study hard, but if you feel like you just can't stop pushing yourself to prepare or you won't be happy with anything but a high grade, that pressure can't be hard to deal with.

●Pressure from parents and teachers. Most parents want to see great report cards, and they can start pushing when test time comes around. For teachers, many schools want to show high test grades from their students. So they have high expectations for the teachers, then the teachers have expectations for the students!

●Competition with friends. You love your best friends but she's always asking you how you did in the test you both just took. This is normal, but can add to some of the pressure you're already feeling.

●Past experience. If you had a bad time with a test in the past, or if you've done poorly in one or more tests, you could feel anxious (焦虑的) about the next one.

●Negative (消极的) thinking. If you think you're going to fail, or you keep beating yourself up with thoughts like "I'm not smart enough" or "I never do well", this can add a lot of stress.

【题目】 In England, people buy bus tickets on the bus. In France, they buy them at a bus station. In Australia, they can buy them from a magazine store. Books on cross-cultural communication make us curious by focusing on differences between people across the world: in social behavior and the importance of their body language, etc.

For example, how close you stand to someone when you are speaking to him is different in different cultures. Surveys in most countries tell us that the proper distance(距离)of two people standing in a social situation is between 1. 2 metres and 3.5 metres. But in China, this distance seems to be smaller, while in Sweden, people usually stand farther.

The message sent by the way you stand or sit is another condition. For example, it is quite common in European countries to sit with your legs crossed. But people in Arab countries hardly ever sit in this way—because they might show you the bottom of their shoes, and it is thought to be impolite.

Such information fills the pages of guides for travellers and international business people. Clearly it is important to know a little about eating customs and the rules about basic greetings—whether you should bow or shake someone's hands. But under the surface, we are not so different. There are many signs that are common in the emotions(情感)that they communicate.

Smiling is the best known of these, but not the only one. Scientists have proven that all over the world, people show sadness in a similar way. People look down with their face “falling” and mouth corner turning down. There are also common factors when people are bored. They will look at other things in an distracted(漫不经心的) way--their watches, for example. Their feet will begin to move restlessly showing that they want to escape.

Understanding these body languages and acting properly is the real key to cross-cultural communication. If we all pay just a little attention, it is impossible that we will cause lasting inconvenience by using the wrong body language or standing too near to strangers and then make them feel uncomfortable.
