Passage One
Different countries have different cultures.A same gesture may havedistinct meanings indifferent countries.For instance，in Africa，people knock at the table withtheir fingers to call waiters which is considered as impolite in China.In western countries.if you make a circlewith your thumb and the index finger(食指)，and then raise the other three fingers.youare suggesting “OK”.The same gesture，however，means “money” in Japan while makesBrazilian people feel insulted(受侮辱的).With that in mind，you’d better learn abouttheir custom before travelling to foreign countries. Greeting is an important part ofcommunication between people.When greeting someone，Americans tend to holdout their hands and look directly into his/her eyes andthen smile.However.sometimessuch behavior might bring nothing but misunderstanding in other countries.A handshake might not be accepted and looking others right in theeye Can have different meanings. Asian people regard physical contact asembarrassin9;therefore，they do not shake hands.They have their ownways of greeting people.For Japanese，a slight bow of the head is enough.In Korea，women do not shake hands or hug with people;whilemen might shake hands accompanied by nodding the head once.In western Asia，Muslims do not make bodycontacts with women yet hug is generally accepted among men.Same thing happens on eye contact.In manycountries，people avoid direct eye contact to showrespect.This can cause misunderstanding，too.In fact. students have been regarded as lacking respectfor their American teachers exactly because they failed to make eye contactswith their teachers. Though different cultures seem to havedifferent ways of greeting.smiling is taken as the universal gesture of friendliness.Smiling indicates happiness or agreement(同意)andit can also be used to mean “Excuse me ”or “Please”.Sowhen you are not sure what to do，just smile.

A. shakingeach other

ingtheir heads

不同的國家擁有不同的文化。同一個手勢可能在不同的國家有著不同的含義。比如，在非洲，人們通過敲打桌子來叫服務員，然而這在中國卻是不禮貌的。在西方國家，如果你用大拇指和食指環(huán)成一個圈
然后伸出其他三個手指，那就代表著“好的，沒問題”。同樣的手勢在日本是“金錢”的意思，而在巴西則表示對人的侮辱。了解了這些，你最好在到外國旅游之前先了解一下當?shù)氐娘L俗習慣。
問候是人際交往中重要的一部分。當問候別人的時候，美國人會伸出手，直視對方，并且面帶微笑。然而，有時候這樣的行為會在其他國家造成誤解。那些國家的人們不會用握手來彼此問候，而直視對方的眼睛也有著不同的含義。 ‘
亞洲人認為身體接觸是一件很尷尬的事情，因此他們并不握手。他們有自己打招呼的方式。對日本人來說，輕輕頷首就足夠了。在韓國，女性并不與人握手或者擁抱，而男性則可能握手并且輕輕點一下頭。在西亞，穆斯林并不與女性發(fā)生身體接觸，但是男性之間通常可以互相擁抱。眼神接觸也是一樣。在許多國家，A.-f]'3用避免眼神接觸來表示對對方的尊敬。這也可能造成誤解÷事實上，一些亞洲學生因為不與他們的美國老師進行眼神接觸而被認為對老師有失尊重。盡管不同的國家有不同的問候方式，微笑被看作是表達友好的通用方式。微笑暗示心情愉悅或者表達認可，同時也可以用來表達“打擾了”或者“請”。所以當你不確定該怎么做的時候，就微笑吧。
細節(jié)題。題干意為“當兩個日本人見面，他們通過什么方式相互問候?”根據(jù)文章第三段第三句“對日本人來說，輕輕頷首就足夠了。”可知輕輕點下頭就是日本人的問候方式。故D為正確答案。
(7) :D推理題。題干意為“如果一個美國人對一個日本人做出‘0K’的手勢，那么日本人可能會認為?”根據(jù)第一段第四、五句可知，美國人用“OK”的手勢表達“好的，沒問題”，而同一個手勢在日本表示“金錢”，由此可推知，如果日本人看到美國人擺出“OK”的手勢，可能會覺得是想要錢。故D為正確答案。
(8) :B細節(jié)題。題干意為“以下哪項中的行為會被認為是不禮貌的?”根據(jù)第三段末尾亞洲學生因為不與他們的美國老師進行眼神接觸而被認為對老師有失尊重的例子，可以推知美國人習慣進行直接的眼神接觸，故A項的行為是禮貌的。根據(jù)第三段第三句“對日本人來說，輕輕頷首就足夠了。”可知點頭致意是日本人的問候方式，故c項的行為是禮貌的。根據(jù)第四段第一句可知“微笑被看作是表達友好的通用方式”，因此D項對法國人來講，用微笑來表達自己喜悅的心情是禮貌的。根據(jù)第三段第五句“在西亞，穆斯林并不與女性發(fā)生身體接觸，但是男性之間通�？梢曰ハ鄵肀�”可知穆斯林的女性是不與人進行身體接觸的，所以B項的行為會被認為是不禮貌的。故B為正確答案。
(9) :B主旨題。題干意為“以下哪項是文章的最佳標題?”文章以不同手勢在不同國家的不同含義開始，引出各個國家問候方式的不同，接著講述了不同國家對待身體接觸和眼神接觸的不同態(tài)度。不難看出，文章是圍繞“不同國家，不同風俗習慣”這一一個主題進行的。故B為正確答案。

(1) :D他看到一位老婦人和她停在路邊的車子。他能看得出這位老婦人需要幫助。因此他把車停在她的車前面然后走了出去。
即使他面帶微笑，老婦人依然感到害怕。他看上去可不安全，而且又窮又餓。
他說，“我來幫助你，夫人。我的名字叫布萊恩·安德森。”其實只是爆胎而已，但是對這樣一位老婦人來說已經(jīng)算是很糟糕了。布萊恩幫老婦人更換了輪胎，老婦人感激不已。緊接著，老婦人問布萊恩應該付多少錢給他。老婦人已經(jīng)想象到了所有可能發(fā)生的不好的事情。布萊恩告訴老婦人，如果她真的想要報答他，那么下一次當她遇到需要幫助的人的時候，她可以伸出援手。
沿著公路開了幾英里，老婦人看到一間小咖啡館。她走進去。服務員臉上帶著甜蜜的笑容，那笑容即便在站了一整天之后還是無法抹去。老婦人注意到眼前的這個服務員已經(jīng)有了大約8個月的身孕，但她卻不讓自己的痛苦為人所知。老婦人想知道是什么讓一個幾乎一無所有的人卻仍然給予一個陌生人這么多。這時，她想到了布萊恩。用餐之后，老婦人付了一張100美元的鈔票。服務員馬上回去找零錢，但當她回來的時候，發(fā)現(xiàn)餐巾紙上有這樣的幾行字：“你不匙我什么。曾經(jīng)有個人幫助過我，就像我現(xiàn)在幫助你一樣。如果你真的想要回報我，就這樣做：不要讓愛的傳遞在你這里停止。”在餐巾紙的底下還放著4張100美元的`鈔票。晚上服務員回到家，想起了老婦人寫下的話。老婦人怎么知道她和她的丈夫是多么地需要錢來迎接下個月即將出生的嬰兒呢?她躺在她的丈夫身邊，輕柔地低語。“一切都會好的。我愛你，布萊恩·安德森”。
推理題。題二F意為“為什么當布萊恩試圖幫助老婦人的時候，她感到擔憂?”從文中第二段對老婦人心理活動的描寫“He didn’t look safe.He looked poorand hungry.”
可以推斷老婦人害怕布萊恩傷害他。故D為正確答案。
(2) :C推理題。題干意為“為什么老婦人想要付錢給布萊恩?”從文中第三段對老婦人心理活動的描寫“Shehad already imagined all the temble things that could have happened.”可以推斷老婦人想要破財免災。故c為正確答案。
(3) :D推理題。題干意為“第五段中劃線的單詞erase是什么意思?”從第五段第三句話“She noticedthe waitress was nearly eight months pregnant，but she never let her aches be noticed.”可以推知服務員盡管已經(jīng)懷了8個月的身孕，但是不想讓別人感到她身體的不適，因此竭力讓自己的笑容不被抹去，故D為正確答案。
(4) :A細節(jié)題。題干意為“老婦人建議服務員如果想要報答她的話，要怎么做?”從文中第六段最后一句話“If youreally want to pay me back，here is whatyou d0：Do not let this chain oflove end with you.”可知，老婦人讓服務員將愛心傳遞下去，也就是繼續(xù)幫助其他人。故A為正確答案。
(5) :B主旨題。題干意為“以下哪項最適合做本文的標題?”通過本文敘述的兩個故事可以看出文章的主題是愛的傳遞，布萊恩付出的愛心經(jīng)由老婦人又傳遞回了他本人和他的妻子。故B為正確答案。
