Many people love travelling to different countries, but if you plan to go abroad, you should know how to behave in different situations around the world. Most travellers enjoy meeting new people, but sometimes you can be rude without saying anything. In Russia, you should never shake hands in a doorway, and if you're travelling in Thailand, never touch people's heads or point your feet at people. When the Japanese meet new people, they like giving business cards—but you should read the card carefully, not just put it in your pocket. In most countries in Europe, people expect a lot of eye contact when you talk to them, but in many Asian countries, a lot of eye contact seems unfriendly. And in South America, people usually stand quite close to each other when they talk, but in countries like the USA, you need to give people more personal space. Also, it's rude to interrupt Japanese people while they are talking to you. You must wait until they finish before you start speaking. In restaurants in China, you can leave a bit of food on your plate. It's OK to start smoking before other people finish eating, which you mustn't do in the UK. When in India, remember to eat with your right hand. Also avoid leaving empty bottles on the dinner table in Russia—that's bad luck. When you're travelling in Asia, if someone invites you to his or her home, don't forget to take off your shoes when you arrive. And if you visit an Arab family's home, don't admire anything valuable because your host will feel he should give it to you as a present. With so much to think about, it's not surprising that many people prefer going on holiday in their own countries—or you might just decide to stay at home! 1.Which of the following statements is TRUE? A.We can admire anything valuable in an Arab family's home. B.In China, people cannot smoke before other people finish eating. C.In Russia, it's impolite to shake hands with people in a doorway. D.In the USA, people usually stand quite close to each other when they talk. 2.What will the people in the USA feel when someone stand close to them when talking? A.Unfriendly B.Friendly. C.Happy. D.Polite. 3.What does the underlined word “interrupt” mean in Chinese? A.跟随 B.打断 C.附和 D.强调 4.What is the correct order of the title from Paragraph 2 to Paragraph 5? a. Eating out b. In the home c. Body language d. Face to face communication A.bcda B.dabc C.cdab D.abcd 5.What's the best title for the text? A.Culture shock B.Table manners C.Public rules D.Travelling plans

On my 14th birthday, some close family members had a party for me in a park. I received many gifts. My aunt gave me 100 yuan. I was excited and kept on thinking about how I should spend the money. Just after everyone sang Happy Birthday to me, ①突然，我看到一个小男孩正坐在树下哭泣。I wondered why he was sad and went to him with a piece of cake. “What’s the matter?” The boy looked up but said nothing. I passed him the cake and tried to talk with him. Several minutes later, I knew about his story. His parents both died of drugs a month ago, so he had to live with his uncle and missed his parents so much. He always felt sad and afraid. He didn’t know what he could do. What a poor boy! How terrible the drug was! I gave my money to the boy and told him to face the life bravely. ②From then on, I made up my mind to do something against drugs.

①Chemistry is everywhere in our daily life. Sometimes it's easy to see. At other times, it can be very hard to see the everyday chemistry at work, but nearly everything you touch has some chemicals (化学物质) in it. ②Chemistry helps to make products for use. Something as simple as toothpaste has at least three chemicals that keep your teeth clean. Other things in your daily life are created by chemistry, such as hair products and soap. Without chemistry, we would never have known that we need soap to get the oil out of clothes. ③Chemistry also helps us understand the world around us. Thanks to chemistry, we know bleach (漂白剂) can't be mixed with vinegar (醋), because the mixture can produce harmful gas. ④Chemistry plays a big role in food preparation. Cooking food causes it to go through a chemical change. That is the reason why cooked food often tastes different from uncooked food. Too much or too little of any chemical material makes a difference to the result of baking (烘焙). For example, the cake can be too soft or too hard. ⑤Chemistry isn't something that just lives in a laboratory; it's something that you meet hundreds of times in life. Knowing how chemistry works will give you a greater understanding of the life. 1.What can the chemistry in soap help us? A.To clean the teeth. B.To make the teeth strong. C.To clean the oil off clothes. D.To make the clothes new. 2.From the third paragraph, we know that ________. A.we can mix bleach with vinegar B.the mixture can produce useful gas C.we can't mix bleach with vinegar D.chemistry can't help us make products 3.The fourth paragraph mainly tells us that ________. A.cooked food is much better than uncooked food B.chemistry plays a big role in food preparation C.there are no chemical changes while we are cooking D.the cake can't be too soft or too hard with chemistry 4.Which of the following shows the structure (结构) of the passage? (①=Paragraph 1) A. 5.What's the main idea of the passage? A.Chemistry and food. B.Chemistry around the world. C.Chemistry and products. D.Chemistry in everyday life.

China has accepted western fashion and technology as it has developed these years, but a lot of young people are turning to the past for their clothes choices and putting on traditional "hanfu". As the government encourages the renaissance (复兴) of traditional culture, hanfu is getting more and more popular with the teenagers. Every year, we can enjoy different hanfu shows around the cities. These shows bring us back to Han dynasty. We learn more about the history, culture and beauty from them. Hanfu hasn't been in the same style since Han dynasty. However, this kind of clothes has something in common. They all have large soft robes (袍子), with sleeves that hang down to the knees, so the hands can't be seen. In modern China, the hanfu lovers are from history fans, cartoon fans to clothes fans. "Clothes are the basic part of culture, so both the traditional clothes and modern clothes play the same role in culture," said Zhang Jun, a famous reporter.
