American Wedding Customs and Superstitions Wedding days are often considered the most important day of many people’s lives. For this reason alone, throughout the past and into modern day, numerous customs and superstitions have developed around the wedding event, in hopes of creating “The Perfect Day”! A very common custom still honored today is in reference to a time-old saying, “Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue, and a silver sixpence inside your shoe.” So old is this that tracing it back to its origination is nearly impossible. Some attribute it to Victorian times, others say it is even older than that. The “old” is believed to be the friends and family attending the wedding. The “new” is represented by the couple themselves, as a “new” union. The “borrowed” is something from the families that is to be returned, such as the bride’s wedding dress, or the veil, borrowed from her own mother. Something “blue” is often interpreted to represent the bride’s purity, as the opposite of red, which throughout time has come to represent a woman of many men. Modern-day brides often wear a bit of blue material tucked out of sight. The sixpence can be any form of money, tucked into the bride’s shoe, so as to bring wealth and love to the union. The veil and the bridesmaids were originated not as decorations or to allow your friends to share your happiness, but to help confuse the evil spirits that were believed to be lurking about on this holy day. The veil, by hiding the face, particulary the eyes, confused the evil spirits. Bridesmaids would surround the bride, thus confusing the evil spirits as to who was the actual bride. In a similar belief, the best man is supposed to protect the groom from the day the wedding is first set in motion, until he is rightfully married to his would-be bride. Colors have long played a part in the planning of weddings. While many believe that the white of the wedding dress signifies that the bride is a virgin, this is not actually true in all societies. An old saying sums up the colors in a wedding very well: 1 2 题号 一 二 三 四 五 六 七 八 九 十 总分 分数 阅卷人 下 装 订 线 专业班级： 姓名： 学号： 上 装 订 线

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre. Passage One Questions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage. Cultural differences in business entertaining include issues such as whom one entertain, and where, and how one entertains. In countries in which status is important, it is not advisable to invite people of different statuses to the same dinner party. Americans will often invite people to their homes. Whereas in some societies the home is considered too private, unworthy, or embarrassingly small to serve as an appropriate forum for business entertaining. In some countries there is a “help yourself” approach to entertaining done in the home. This approach does not work well when entertaining people whose culture teaches them to wait to be asked three times before accepting an offer of food. For one instance, a Chinese guest went an entire evening without eating though he was quite hungry because he was too embarrassed to take food after only being asked to do so once. In another case, an American woman executive was being entertained at tea in London. After having the tea served, the American woman helped herself to cream and sugar rather than waiting to be served. The English woman was embarrassed by the implication that she was not serving quickly enough. As a general rule, a small girl from your home country is appreciated. A gift that is tied to the particular interest of the individual is especially appreciated. Gifts for children are also well received. Be careful that the “hometown” gift you are bringing to Singapore was not made in Hong Kong. Because many gifts carry symbolic meanings, it is always best to seek the advice of a cultural informant before selecting gifts. The giving of large gifts, or payments for special service, should only be undertaken after consulting the legal department in the home and host culture. 注意：此部分试题请在答题纸上作答。 56.

A) A big girl C) A small girl from one’s home B) Large payment as a gift D) A girl from Singapore Passage Two Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage. Any country has good reason to want its citizens to be as healthy as possible, since one of its greatest resources is an active population. No country wants its people to suffer unnecessarily from ill health. This was the kind of thinking which led to the introduction of a health service in many countries. In Britain this has developed into a “Welfare State” in which all citizens, rich and poor alike, can get most health treatment free. The money for this is partially raised by contributions from employers and employees. As three decades have shown, such automatic arrangements are not always ideal and there are arguments for and against the Health Service. The number of patients treated every year and the cost of treatment are much greater than was estimated. This means that the people who work for the Health Service--doctors, nurses and other hospitaI staff--have much more routine work to do and as a result they have little time for preventive medicine. The Health Service does need more staff--a need that can only be met if more money is made available to it. However, a powerful argument for the Health Service is that many people are able to receive expensive treatment which they could never afford themselves. Sometimes this free treatment is abused and people visit their doctors when they don’t really need to. Because they have so many patients, doctors can not spend as long with each one as they would like, and some people prefer to pay for private treatment so that their doctors can give them more time. In fact, some wealthy people feel that they should pay, and so free more money for treatment to others. 专业班级 7 8 ： 姓名： 学号：
