There were several kinds of greetings in ancient China. Among them the fist-and-palm salute(拱手礼) was quite common.
The fist-and-palm salute is a kind of typical Chinese etiquette(礼仪) with a history of more than 3,000years.In ancient times, if people met a stranger, their hands were always ready to hold something used for fighting.Holding hands together showed that people could feel relaxed. Later it became the etiquette when meeting each other and showing thanks. In modern China, the fist-and-palm salute has been used a lot on traditional occasions.
How to do fist-and-palm salute properly Firstly, stand straight. If you are a man, let your right hand be a half fist, and then let your left hand hold your right hand in front of your chest. Watch each other in the eyes,raise both of your hands to your brow(额头), bend down and shake hands towards each other gently for three times. Meanwhile, you could say some auspicious(吉祥的) greeting words such as“gong xi fa cai”
(Wish you prosperity and wealth),“ni hao”(Hello),“xing hui”(Nice to meet you),“xin nian kuai le”(HappyNew Year) to each other according to different occasions. It's believed that people considered the left as the important side for men in Chinese history, while for women, the important side is the right. So, if you are a woman, you should make the fist-and-palm salute in the other way—— put your right hand on your left hand. At last, please remember when someone makes the fist-and-palm salute to you, you need to do it back as well.
( )19. What does the underlined word“it” in Paragraph 2 refer to

Jane Austen, an English novelist, started writing young and finished six novels in her life. TodayAusRichard Jenkyns, a professor of English at Oxford University, says that her novels are about marria
Pride and Prejudice(《傲慢与偏见》) is Austen's most famous work. It is a love story about ElizabethBennet and Mr Darcy. At first, these two dislike each other. Elizabeth is pretty, smart and lively. Mr Darcy is handsome, rich and has a better family background.So he is proud. At the same time, Darcy holds a prejudice against the Bennet family. He has no understanding of why the family, especially its mother and daughters should try so hard to find wealthy and powerful husbands. He thinks they are vulgar. Anyway, Elizabeth and Darcy finally fall in love and become a romantic couple, but their families don't want them to.
In Pride and Prejudice, some of the main things that Jane Austen wants to teach people are as follows. Opposites can attract each other. Lovers should not only make each other feel relaxed or comfortable, but also educate and improve each other.
Austen is often called the greatest romantic(浪漫的) writer, so it is surprising she remained unmarried all through her life.“Maybe she was too romantic, waiting for the perfect man,” Jenkyns says.

A. Jane Austen died in her fifties.

D. Austen's works are mostly about war and the family.
( )24. Why doesn't Elizabeth have a good first impression of Darcy

C. Because Darcy is too proud. D. Because Darcy is too shy.
( )25. What does the underlined word“remained” in the last paragraph mean

Dear Dale,
I'm very happy to know you are coming to China for the summer vacation. Now let me tell you something about China.
First, there are many kinds of delicious food and places of interest in China. When you come, you'd better taste traditionalChinese food. You should take a camera with you and take photos of the places of interest. Then, Chinese people are friendly. When they meet, they usually shake hands. So you can shake hands when you meet Chinese people. Next, we speakChinese in China. So if you can't understand what we say, you can ask the guides for help. Finally, it is very convenient to travel inChina. The traffic is always there waiting for you. But if you want to take a train or a plane, you'd better order a ticket first.
I hope you will have a good time in China.
Yours,
Lily
