New ideas are always welcome and can
2、often improve our lives but we must ensure they fit well into our 41 culture.One current debate that highlights this crash between old and new ideas is the issue of organ donations 42 untreatable car crashes.Currently in China it is assumed that 43 of untreatable car crashes would be unwilling to do
3、nate their organs to others. This has helped lead to a situation where over 1.5 million people need a transfer but only about 10,000 receive a new organ each year. In order to increase the number of organ donors, a new policy will require drivers to state whether they are willing to become organ don
4、ors or not.The 44 of asking drivers to be organ donors has shown to be successful. In America, the national average of organ donors is 38% but in Illinois where drivers are asked about organ donation the rate is 60%. Other western nations have also seen huge rises in the number of organ donors since
5、 asking drivers.However in China organ donation is a(n) 45 concept to many and crashes with some traditional ideas. Some have argued that the policy puts an evil eye on driving. Others have criticized the project because it predicts death. The strongest criticism has come from those who highlighted
6、that it conflicts with traditional Chinese 46 which state how important it is for the body to be 47 unbroken.

By 1995, the figure had _41_ to 33 percent, and another 20 percent were the US-born children of immigrants. So immigrants and their children now form a(n) _42_ of the citys population.Who are th
9、ese New Yorkers? Why do they come here? Where are they from? (OK, time to drop the “they”. Im one of them.) The last question at least is easy to answer: we come from everywhere.

10、 Asia, five in the Caribbean, four in Latin America, three in Europe, plus Israel and the former Soviet Union. And when we immigrants got here we _44_ up our sleeves. “If youre not ready to work when you get to New York,” says a friend of mine, “youd better hit the road.”The mayor of New York once s

14、people from two different cultures trying to 41 . Professor Deborah Tannen of Georgetown University, has noticed the difference in the style of boys and girls conversations from an early age.

15、ersation to 43 status with their listeners. These differences continue into adult life, she says. In 44 conversations, men talk most and interrupt other speakers more. In private conversations, men and women speak in 45 amountsalthough they say things in a different style. Professor Tannen believes
16、that, for woman, private talking is a way to establish and test intimacy(亲切感). For men, private talking is a way to explore the power 46 of a relationship.Teaching is one job where the differences between mens and womens ways of talking show. When a man teaches a woman, says Professor Tannen, he wan
17、ts to show that he has more knowledge, and hence more power in conversation. When a woman teaches another woman, however, she is more likely to take a sharing 47 and to encourage her student to join in.But Professor Tannen does not believe that women are naturally more helpful. She says women feel t
18、hey 48 power by being able to help others. Although the research suggests men talk and interrupt people more than women, Professor Tannen says, women actually encourage this to happen because they believe it will lead to more intimacy and help to establish a relationship.Some scientists who are stud
