20xx年高考真题英语全国卷ⅰword版含解析内容摘要：

Persons in other cultural groups value silence and view it as necessary for understanding a person‘s needs. Many Native Americans value silence and feel it is a basic part of municating among people, just as some traditional Chinese and Thai persons do. Therefore, when a person from one of these cultures is speaking and suddenly stops, what may be implied(暗示 ) is that the person wants the listener to consider what has been said before continuing. In these cultures, silence is a call for reflection. Other cultures may use silence in other ways, particularly when dealing with conflicts among people or in relationships of people with different amounts of power. For example, Russian, French, and Spanish persons may use silence to show agreement between parties about the topic under discussion. However, Mexicans may use silence when instructions are given by a person in authority rather than be rude to that person by arguing with him or her. In still another use, persons in Asian cultures may view silence as a sign of respect, particularly to an elder or a person in authority, persons in Asian culture may view silence as a sign of respect, particularly to an elder or a person in authority.

Bank, panies, and government agencies use secret code in doing business, especially when information is sent by puter. People have used secret codes for thousands of years. 36 Code breaking never lags (落后 ) behind code making. The science of decoding and reading coded messages is called cryptography. There are three main types of cryptography. 37 For example, the first letters are ―My elephant eats too many eels‖ spell out the hidden message ―Meet me.‖ 38 You might represent each letter with a number, for example, let‘s number the letters of the alphabet, in order, from 1 to 26. If we substitute a number for each letter, the message ―Meet me‖ would read ―1 3 5 20 13 5‖. A code uses symbols to replace words, phrases, or sentences. To read the message of a real code, you must have a code book. 39 For example, ―bridge‖ might stand for ―meet‖ and ―out‖ might stand for ―me‖. The message ―bridge out‖ would actually mean ―Meet me‖. 40 However, it is also hard to keep a code book secret for long. So codes must be changed frequently. A. It is very hard to break a code without a code book. B. In any language, some letters are used more than others.。
