Ladies and gentlemen,

Welcome to England! The weather of England is very changeable (易变的). It can be rainy, sunny, cloudy, windy, stormy, warm, foggy, or cold at any time of the year. If it is raining when you get up in the morning, it can be hot and dry by the afternoon. It may be sunny when you get up, but when you go out, it may be rainy. So don’t forget to take an umbrella with you. The west of England is wetter than the east, and the north is cooler than the south. You should be ready for any kind of weather.

In England, shops are usually open from 9.00 a.m. to 5.30 p.m. On Sundays, some shops are open from 10.00 a.m. to 4.00 p.m. But a lot of shops are closed. Banks, museums or other places are open from 10.00 a.m. to 5.00 p.m. You can go to the parks at any time.

All the cities have buses, trains and taxis. People wait in line for buses and they are unhappy if you push in at the front. Don’t forget that traffic goes on the left.

Be careful with yourselves when you travel in England!

People in different countries have different ways of doing things. Something that is polite in one country may be quite impolite in another. In Britain, you mustn’t lift (举起) your bowl to your mouth when you are having some soup. But it’s different in China. And in Japan you even needn’t worry about making a noise when you have it. It shows that you are enjoying it. Making a noise is considered as (被认为) bad manners (举止，礼仪) in Britain. If you are a visitor in Mongolia, what manners do they wish you to have? They wish you to give a loud “burp” (打嗝) after you finish eating. Burping shows that you like the food.

In Britain, you should try not to put your hands on the table when you’re having a meal. In Mexico, however, they hope you keep the hands on the table during a meal. But Arabians consider you must be very careful with your hands. You mustn’t eat with your left hand. Arabians consider it very bad manners eating with left hands. So, what should you do if you are on a visit in another country? Well, you can ask the local people to help you or just watch carefully and follow them if you are on a visit in another country.

1.It is impolite to lift your bowl to your mouth when you are having some soup in _________.

2.In Mongolia, burping after eating shows that _________.

3.What’s the main idea of the passage?

Jess really felt very happy. When he arrived at his seat in the classroom that morning, he found an invitation（请柬）on his desk. It was from some of his classmates asking him to join their camping trip. This was the first time he was asked to join in an out-of-school activity. Why were they asking him now? Nobody seemed（似乎）to like him. In fact, he had been so lonely (孤独) that he ate a lot to make himself feel less lonely. As a result, he had put on a lot of weight, and this gave the children something more to make fun of him.

Cindy, who was standing near Jess when he read the invitation, went out quickly to tell the others that the trick had worked. Everyone was happy that Jess thought that was true. But there was no camping trip. The whole thing was made up.

At first, Cindy thought it was fun. But later, when Jess told her that he was going to buy a sleeping bag with his pocket money, Cindy had a second idea. She knew that Jess’s family had little money, and she hated to see him spend his pocket money on something he would never use. Cindy also hated to tell Jess the truth (真相). Her close friends would be unhappy with her.

What could she do now?

1.What would happen if Cindy told Jess the truth?

2.If Jess really bought a sleeping bag, _________.

3.From the story we know _________.

4.Which is the best title for this passage?
