Passage Two
A particular area in which assumptions and values differ between cultures is that of friendship. Friendships among Americans tend to be shorter and less intense than these among people from many other cultures. At least many observers from abroad have this impression.Because Americans are taught to be self-reliant,because they live in a very mobile society,and for many other reasons as well,they tend to avoid deep involvement with other people. Furthermore,Americans tend to“compartmentalize”their friendships,having their“friends at work”,“friends at school”,a“tennis friend”,and so on. Americans often seem very friendly even when you first meet them. This friendliness does not usually mean that the American is looking for a deeper relationship.
The result of these attitudes and behaviors is sometimes viewed by foreigners as an“inability to be friends”. Other times it is seen as a normal way to retain personal happiness in a mobile,ever-changing society.
People normally have in their minds stereotypes about people who are different from themselves. Stereotypes are based on limited and incomplete experience and information,but they shape people’s thoughts and expectations. Americans have many stereotypes about foreign students in general(for example,that they are very hard working intelligent,and rich that they do speak English well)and about particular categories of foreign students(Chinese are polite and good at mathematics,for example,or Italians are emotional). And foreign students have their own stereotypes of Americans,for example,that they are arrogant,rude,and generous.
There are two stereotypes that often affect male-female relationships involving U.S. and foreign students. The first is the idea,held by some foreign males,that American females are invariably willing,if not anxious to have sex. The second common stereotype,held by some American females,is that male foreign students have no interest in American females other than having with them. The existence of these and other stereotypes can give rise to considerable misunderstanding and can block the development of a mutually satisfactory relationship between particular individuals. Stereotypes seem unavoidable given the way the human mind seeks to categorize and classify information,so it is not realistic to suppose people can“forget their stereotypes”. But they can be aware of their stereotypes,and be ready to find exceptions to them.
36. Consuming friendship,Americans .
A. look for a deeper relationship in a close circle
B. avoid deep relationship with other people
C. are friendly at first but do not remain so later on
D. do not make good friends

听力原文: A new report says the cast of studies at public colleges in the United States increased fourteen percent this year. This is the biggest increase in tuition in thirty years. But the study also found that the average student pays a lot less than the published costs of a college education, because of grants. And it points out that American students received a record amount of financial aid last year.
Students do not have to repay grants, unlike financial aid in the form. of loans. About half of American college students receive grants. This means that education costs differ from student to student.
The report is from the College Board. This is a non-profit membership group of schools and other educational organizations. One of its best-known jobs is to administer college entrance tests.
The College Board says tuition at two-year public colleges rose at the same rate as four-year schools.
The College Board says the increases were mainly caused by cuts in state spending on education. But a congressman says colleges have increased their prices in both good and bad economic times. John Boehner of Ohio is chairman of the House Committee on Education and the Workforce. He says colleges do not want to talk about their decisions to spend money to build things like rock-climbing walls.
The College Board collected information from four-thousand colleges and universities. It says the average total charge for students who live at a public college in their state is ten-thousand-six-hundred dollars. While tuition rose fourteen per cent this year, housing and other costs increased at a lower rate.
At a private college, total charges are almost twenty-seven-thousand dollars. That is an increase of about six percent over last year.
