When Michelle Obama became first lady

join her husband in a partnership to
transform the public face America presents to the
world. In the
process, she is expected
to ___41____ a new role that offers exciting
opportunities and challenges.
Although
the position of first lady

and unpaid, a president’s spouse has many
official duties, some practical and
some ceremonial or ___42____. As first lady,
Michelle Obama
will
___43___
her
country
when
traveling
overseas,
and
she

(
担任
)
as
hostess
at
White House state dinners and other
important functions. In addition, she will
___44___ continue
meeting
with
citizens
across
the
United
States,
much
as
she

2008
presidential
campaign.
Modern U.S.
first
ladies often
devote
part
of
their
time
to
a
public-service
agenda of
their
own choosing. Michelle

nly will ensure that those
families’
needs receive high-level
attention.
On

lady

intends
to
___48___
her
obligations as
“mom
-in-
chief” to the
Obamas’ two young daughters, Malia and Sasha, as

Foreigners often fail to appreciate the
formal code of greeting in France. The French
shake
hands with everyone(family,
children, strangers), at home, on the way to work,
at work, on leaving
work, on the way
home from work, etc. Thus, in an office , perhaps
a dozen people, no work will
be done
for the first half hour while
41
who have not met since the day before,
remind each
other who they are.
However, it is important to remember
with whom one has shaken hands on any one day. The
French
42
it
as
extremely
bad
manners
to
shake
hands
twice,
as
though
one
had
not
taken
enough
43
for the first time.
It is still the
44
to say
“
Bonjour
p>
”
and
“
Au
revoir
”
to others when
entering or leaving a
shop
or
bar.
This
is
not
because
the
French
are
too
45
.
It
is
because
they
see
acknowledging(
注意
)
the
existence
of
others
as
a
way
of
46
being
rude.
This
may
seem
unbearably slight to others, but to the
French it is most important. Manners mean
civilization to
them.
Kissing is not so much of a(n)
47
of French life as others supposed. But
when it does
take place, it must be
done
48
, according to the rules.
The
49
order is left cheek, right
cheek, left cheek---very formal, very
stylized. In Paris four kisses are sometimes
permitted: left,

answer session with college students.
In fact, he is the first U.S. president
to visit China inside his first year in office.
“
The United States insists
we do not seek to contain
China
’
s
rise,
”
he told Chinese
students in
Shanghai.
“
On the contrary, we welcome
China as a strong and ___42___ and successful
member

nations.
”
The
U.S.-China
relationship
has
opened
the
door
to
partnerships
on
___43
___
global
concerns including economic recovery,
clean energy, climate change, and the ___44___ of
peace
and beyond, he added.
Indeed, given these pressing issues,
China and the United States have ___45___ found
their
future linked together. They
discovered that the largest developing nation and
the most powerful
industrialized
country have to work in concert.
Obama
’
s visit to
China on November 15-18 highlighted the complexity
of arguably the most
important
bilateral
(
双边
)
relationship
in
the
world.
Moreover,
for
all
their
differences
and
disagreements, Beijing
and Washington are ___46___ to manage their

The
pollution
of
the
earth’s
soil
and
water
has
become
an
issue
of
great
concern.
Until
recently,
most
of
that
concern
has
focused
on
the
land
41
of
the
planet,
where
pollution
directly affects people in their daily
lives. Now, however, we have begun to realize that
marine (
海
洋的
)
pollution is
42
important.
According to S.A. Patin, marine pollution is the
condition
that
results
when
people
introduce
into
the
seas
substances
harmful
to
life,
health,
resources,
