Culture is the sum total of all the traditions, customs, beliefs, and ways of life of a given group of human beings. In this sense, every group has a culture, however savage, undeveloped, or uncivilized it may seem to us.
To the professional anthropologist, there is no intrinsic superiority of one culture over another, just as to the professional linguist there is no intrinsic hierarchy among languages.
People once thought of the languages of backward group as savage, undeveloped forms of speech, consisting largely of grunts and groans. While it is possible that languages in general began as a series of grunts and groans. It is a fact established by the study of "backward" languages that no spoken tongue answers that description today. Most languages of uncivilized groups are, by our most severe standards, extremely complex, delicate, and ingenious pieces of machinery for the transfer of ideas. They fall behind our Western languages not in their sound patterns or grammatical structures, which usually are fully adequate for all language needs, but only in their vocabularies, which reflect the objects and activities known to their speakers. Even in this department, however, two things are to be noted: 1. All languages seem to possess the machinery for vocabulary expansion, whether by putting together words already in existence or by borrowing them from other languages and adapting them to their own systems. 2. The objects and activities requiring names and distinctions for "backward" languages, while different from ours, are often surprisingly numerous and complicated. A Western language distinguishes between what is close to the speaker, or to the person addressed, or removed from both, or out of sight, or in the past, or in the future.
This study of language, in turn, casts a new light upon the claim of the anthropologists that all cultures are to be viewed independently, and without ideas of rank or hierarchy.

Walk a Quarter-Mile or Die 　　If you can walk a quarter-mile,odds(可能性)are you have at least six years of life left in you,scientists say.And the faster you can(51)it,the longer you might live. 　　While walking is no guarantee of(52)or longevity(长寿),a new study found that the ability of elderly people to do the quarter-mile was an“important determinant(决定因素)”in whether or not they’d be(53)six years later and how much illness and disability they would endure. 　　“The(54)to complete this walk was a powerful predictor of health outcomes,”said study leader Anne Newman of the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine.“In fact,we(55)that the people who could not complete the walk were(56)an extremely high risk of later disability and death.” 　　Newman and colleagues recruited nearly 2,700 white and African-American men and women aged 70 to 79 to(57)the walk.All the participants were screened and determined to be in relatively(58)health,and they had all said they had previously walked that far with no(59).Only 86 percent of them finished,(60). 　　The scientists then monitored the health and mortality of all(61)for the next six years.“There was a big gap in health outcomes(62)people who could complete the longer walk and people who could not,with the latter being at an extremely high(63)of becoming disabled or dying,”Newman said.“What was really surprising is that these people were not(64)of how weak they actually were.” 　　Finishing times were found to be crucial,too.Those who completed the walk but were among the slowest 25 percent(65)three times greater risk of death than the speedier folks.

The seriously depressed person sees himself in a very negative way. He is sure that he is alone and hopeless. He often blames himself for ordinary faults and shortcomings which he exaggerates. He is very discouraged about himself, the world, and his future. He becomes less interested in what is going on around him and doesn’t get satisfaction from things he used to enjoy. Fatigue and early morning sleeplessness are quite common. The depressed person may want to sleep more than usual. He may lose his appetite and lose weight or eat more than normally and gain weight. Another particular sign, seen in women is crying spells. Many of these spells are short and common.
Some depressive illness may not show the usual signs of moody sadness and hopelessness. In these cases, the potential depression may mask itself as physical discomfort. It may be a cause of alcoholism, or it may cause addiction to a drug. Chronic fatigue and boredom, as well as continual failure, may be unrecognized forms of depression. There is even evidence that the overly active child may be making up for an potential depression.
Depressives share the feeling that they have lost something very important to them, though often this is not really the case. From a feeling of loss, the depressed person progresses to false ideas that he is a loser and will always be a loser, that he must be worthless and perhaps not fit to live. He may even attempts suicide. So many very depressed people attempt suicide that depressive illness may be considered the only fatal mental illness. Not all those suffering from depressive illness do attempt suicide. Nor are all those who attempt suicide necessarily suffering from illness. But the relationship is striking. It is estimated that as many as 75 percent of those who attempt suicide are seriously depressed, Other studies show that the person hospitalized for depression is about 36 times more likely to commit suicide than is the non-depressed person. The greatest risk occurs during or immediately after hospitalization. After age 40, the possibility of suicide increases in very depressed persons. Almost twice as many women as men suffer from depressive illness. Almost twice as many women as men attempt suicide, but three times more men than women succeed, Depressions is a tragic condition which often leads to broken homes, ruined friendships and careers, and disrupted lives.
Which of the following is not true

A:The depressed person has false ideas because of his feeling of loss. B:Depressives think in general that they have lost something very important to them. C:The number of death from suicide is larger among women than among men. D:Crying spells in women is perhaps a sign of depression.

Domestic Violence Nearly three in 10 men have experienced violence at the hands of an intimate partner during their lifetime, according_________ (51) one of the few studies to look at domestic violence and health among men. "Many men actually do_________ (52) domestic violence, although we don’t hear about it often."Dr. Robert J Reid of the University of Washington in Seattle, one of the study’s authors, told Reuters Health. "They often don’t_________ (53) and we don’t ask. We want to get the message out to men who do experience domestic violence _________ (54) they are not alone and there are resources available to them. The researchers asked study_________ (55) about physical abuse (人身伤害) and non-physical abuse, such as_________（56）that made them fear for their safety, controlling behavior, and constant name-calling. Among men 18 to 64 years old, 14.2 percent said they had experienced intimate partner violence in the past five years, _________ (57) 6.1 percent reported domestic violence in the previous year. Rates were lower for men 55 and older, with 5.3 percent _________ (58) violence in the past five years and 2.4 percent having experienced it in the past 12 months. _________ (59), 30.5 percent of men younger than 55 and 26.5 percent of older men said they had been_________ (60) of domestic violence at some point in their lives. About half of the_________ (61) the men experienced was physical. However, the physical violence men reported wasn’t as harsh as that _________ (62) by women in a previous study; 20 percent to 40 percent of the men rated _________ (63) as severe, compared with 61 percent of women. Men who reported experiencing domestic violence had more emotional and mental health_________ (64) than those who had not, _________ (65) older men, the researchers found.
