China has long been known as a nation of rites（礼仪之邦）.Chinese people behave politely on any formal occasion,whether it is a wedding ceremony,a celebration party,or a banquet（宴席）.The following basic Chinese table manners will help you generally master Chinese dinner manners.
One clear difference between Western and Eastern dining habits is portion (一份) size.While meals in Western restaurants are sized for individuals (个人),dishes offered in Chinese restaurants are meant to be shared.As such,food either comes in bite﹣sized pieces,or is prepared in a way that makes it easy to portion（分配） while being served to you on large plates.
As meals are shared,one may care about the degree of sanitation (卫生).It's common to find communal chopsticks(公筷) placed with each dish.It is good manners to use the communal utensils in a public setting.
You may also notice that tables,especially those in larger dining rooms,are round and have a lazy Susan （more commonly known as "that rotating (旋转的) table on top of your table"）.Besides efficiency (效率) purposes,circular tables stand for important meaning in Chinese culture.It means unity (团结) and presents dining as an event where family members get together.Before you spin the turntable to get to that delicious piece of duck,make sure that no one else is reaching for food!It's impolite to spin the table just as someone is trying to pick up some food.
As mentioned above,Chinese restaurants often use round tables.In Western cultures,the host or the eldest family member often sits at the head of a long table.But what happens when the table is round？
As a round table, the seat of honor (首位) is the one facing the door.The closer you are sitting next to that seat,the more important you are.In a setting where there is no doorway—outdoor dining,for example﹣the seat of honor would be the one facing east.In a banquet environment,the table of honor is usually the one sitting farthest away from the door.
The time at which the dining begins depends on the presence of party members.The suitable time to dig in is after the guest of honor,or the eldest member of the group,is seated and has begun their meal.Sometimes they will mean the start of a meal,by saying “吃吧” which means “Please eat”.
58.What should we do if we have meals in a public setting？
A.Bring your own chopsticks from home. B.Use communal chopsticks to get food.
C.Use your own chopsticks to share food. D.Share the food with others' chopsticks.
59.What does the underlined word "spin"in the passage mean？
A.turn something around B.pull something nearer C.pick something up D.move something away
60.What is the mainly idea of Paragraph 5？
A.Why the table is round？ B.How can you find a seat？
C.Which is the honor seat？ D.Who is the most important？
61.How does the writer organize the article？ 　 　
A.In time order. B.From specific to general. C.In space order. D.From general to specific.
D
①Have you bought any second﹣hand things？Have you sold anything of yours to others？Any stories behind it？
②Once we had a comfortable，beautiful summer day outside after a whole week of rain.My family and I were driving to a nearby town when my daughter found a yard sale.We saw old toys and a couple of guitars.We saw huge piles of clothes and even a piece of furniture or two for sale.Best of all，we saw lots of smiling people talking，laughing，sitting and standing in the sunshine.
③Seeing all of this brought back memories of my childhood.Most of my clothes back then came from yard sales.My mom was a talented（有才能的） yard sale shopper.I used to hate going to them until one special day when I saw that they also sold old books there.After that，I always read through the books until it was time to go and sometimes my mom would buy me one too.Soon a large part of my home library came from yard sale books.To me，they were more priceless than new ones.
④Why do we have yard sales？We get rid of（除去） our old things and we buy "new" old things.But it certainly isn't for the money.It's that yard sales bring us together.We talk and catch up with old friends and new neighbors.We connect（连接） with kindness and our love for all the old stuff（物品）.
⑤I think yard sales teach us something about life too.We can't really own anything here，after all.All we get is to have the stuff for a period of time.Then it is time to let it go and pass it on.
62.What made the writer start enjoying yard sales？
A.She found old books there. B.Her mom liked yard sales.
C.She found her talents there. D.She saw smiling people.
63.Why did the writer use quotation marks（引号） for "new" in Paragraph 4？
A.To show the excitement of finding special stuff.
B.To make the word stand out and draw attention(注意).
C.To show that the stuff was not actually(实际上) new.
D.To prove(证明) that the stuff was valuable(有价值的) or special.
64.According to the writer，what is the main reason why people have yard sales？
A.To make money. B.To get rid of old things. C.To find valuable(有价值的)stuff. D.To connect with others.
65.The structure（结构） of the passage is 　 　.
A. B. C. D.
E
Have you ever heard of a famous charity called Operation Smile 66.
Operation Smile was started by a doctor and his wife. In 1982, together with some volunteers, they went to the Philippines to help children who had holes in their lips or inside their mouths. 67.
These volunteers worked very hard. But they worried that they could not carry on with the work because they were lack（缺乏） of money. Then they decided to start a charity so that they could help these needy children. They called it Operation Smile.
68. Operation Smile has won many prizes for its work and in 1999 they even started a special event called "The World Journey of Hope". 53,000 children in 18 countries are cured during the event.
On the other hand, Operation Smile trains local professionals in developing countries so that they can continue to help children when Operation Smile has left. 69.
So show your kindness and generosity（慷慨） to the needy children now. 70. The children
who can smile now will thank you.

As to the children with much more serious problems, they will send them to America for further treatment. C. You can send your donation to Operation Smile at local banks. D. We hope we can help you understand how we are trying to help children all over the world. E. It was very difficult for them to eat or drink. F. It helps build a better world for everyone, especially for children all over the world.
