四、阅读理解
(河北保定期末)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.
①________　
Most travellers enjoy meeting new people，but sometimes you can be rude without knowing the customs when people first meet.In Russia，you should never shake hands in a doorway.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.
②________
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 China，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.
③________
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 too bad luck.
④________
When you are 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！But anyway，wherever you go，please remember，you should respect the local customs there and try to get used to the life there.

Fred，a lively young man，knew little German when he arrived but after two months' study，the language began to come back to him.As for school，he said it was quite different from that in America.When the teacher went into the classroom，students all stood up.In the USA，students learn six subjects while in Germany they took fourteen.Outside activities aren't nearly organized.
The situation of family life was also different.The father's words were law.All activities were around the family.Germans regard their families as the centre all the time.
America was well known as a country on wheel(车轮).Almost every family has one or two cars.However，things are quite different in Germany.People like walking rather than driving.
Meanwhile，Mike，a German boy，also has his idea about the USA.“I have to say it's too easy to study in American schools.In Germany we did nothing but study.But in the USA，there are so many outside activities.”

二、阅读表达
阅读下面短文，简略回答问题。
Everyone loves gifts！But each country has different customs.
As a European(欧洲人) living in China，I've seen some interesting differences from home.For example，in China，people often give fruits and milk.In Europe，people give them only when they visit sick people in the hospital.
Many Europeans open their gifts right away，although not in places like Germany.It's also important to take off the price tag(标签) before giving the gift.
What if(如果……怎么办) you don't like your gift？In Spain，you still need to say you love the gift so you don't hurt the other person's feelings.But if they remember to leave the receipt(收据) inside the gift，you can just change it for something else.
How the gift looks is also important.However，by using wrapping paper(包装纸) for every gift we buy，we make a lot of waste.Now，many are choosing newspaper or maps as wrapping paper because these can help the environment.
Do Europeans give money as gifts？Yes.Polish couples，for example，often request cash(现金) at weddings(婚礼) to pay for the cost of the venue(场地) and meals.
Finally，remember：Whatever gifts you give，it's not important.The thought is important，not the size or the price of the gift.
1．When do Europeans usually give fruits and milk as gifts
When_they_visit_sick_people_in_the_hospital.
2．Do people in Germany open their gifts right away
No，they_don't.
3．Why do some people use newspapers or maps as wrapping paper now
To_help_the_environment.
4．What do Polish couples use the money from their weddings for
To_pay_for_the_venue_and_meals.
5．What gifts will you give to others？Why？Give your opinion.
I_will_give_books.Because_they_can_help_others_gain_knowledge.(开放性题目，言之有理即可)

【主旨大意】本文主要讲了中国人和西方人在对待别人的称赞时的不同表现。
1．考查反身代词。根据“he had not made...understood”可知，他自己没有被听清楚。he的反身代词是himself。
2．考查连词。根据“the girl still kept saying，‘No.’”可知，前后句是转折关系。应用but连接。
3．考查疑问词。根据“...to say”可知，此处缺少宾语，what符合句意。
4．考查动词。根据“She didn't...a compliment in the same way as the American people do.”可知，她没有像美国人那样接受赞扬。
5．考查副词。根据“She...understood what the American boy had said，but she thought she should be modest.”可知，她真的理解对方在说什么。

9．考查短语。根据“so sometimes you should be confident...being modest”可知，你应该自信而不是谦虚。

四、阅读理解
(河北保定期末)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.
①________　
Most travellers enjoy meeting new people，but sometimes you can be rude without knowing the customs when people first meet.In Russia，you should never shake hands in a doorway.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.
②________
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 China，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.
③________
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 too bad luck.
④________
When you are 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！But anyway，wherever you go，please remember，you should respect the local customs there and try to get used to the life there.

Dinner parties usually start between 7 and 8 p．m.and end at about 11 p．m.Ask your hosts what time you should arrive.It's polite to bring some flowers，chocolates or a bottle of wine(酒) as a gift.
Usually dinners start with drinks.Do you want to be polite？Say how much you like the room or the pictures on the wall.But remember it's not polite to ask how much things cost.
In many families，the husband sits at one end of the table and the wife sits at the other end.They eat with their guests.
You'll probably start the meal with soup or something small，and then you'll have meat or fish with vegetables.Finally，you'll have dessert.It's polite to finish everything on your plate and take more if you want.
Do you enjoy the evening？Call your hosts，or write them a short thank you letter after that.British people like to say “Thank you” all the time.

_ _ _ _ _ Now I'd like to tell you something about the manners in China.
When you meet someone for the first time in China, you are supposed to shake hands. Chinese people talk about many topics, even including their ages. Besides, if you're invited, you are supposed to arrive on time. And you should take a small present with you. If you receive a present, you should open it until your guest leaves your home. As for the table manners, you are supposed to eat with chopsticks. And you'd better not hit the bowl when you are eating. When you are full, don't leave until everyone finishes eating.

阅读题型训练
一、阅读理解
It's reported that this year 2，300 teenagers from all over the world will spend about 10 months in US homes.At the same time about 1，300 American teenagers will go to other countries like Britain and Australia.They will learn new language and get a new understanding of the other parts of the world.
We set up a program called “Exchange for Better” to help the ones who want to be exchange students.Here is a two way student exchange in action in our program.Fred spent last year in Germany with George's family.In return，George's son Mike spent a year in Fred's home in America.

The situation of family life was also different.The father's words were law.All activities were around the family.Germans regard their families as the centre all the time.
America was well known as a country on wheel(车轮).Almost every family has one or two cars.However，things are quite different in Germany.People like walking rather than driving.

二、阅读表达
阅读下面短文，简略回答问题。
Everyone loves gifts！But each country has different customs.
As a European(欧洲人) living in China，I've seen some interesting differences from home.For example，in China，people often give fruits and milk.In Europe，people give them only when they visit sick people in the hospital.
Many Europeans open their gifts right away，although not in places like Germany.It's also important to take off the price tag(标签) before giving the gift.
What if(如果……怎么办) you don't like your gift？In Spain，you still need to say you love the gift so you don't hurt the other person's feelings.But if they remember to leave the receipt(收据) inside the gift，you can just change it for something else.
How the gift looks is also important.However，by using wrapping paper(包装纸) for every gift we buy，we make a lot of waste.Now，many are choosing newspaper or maps as wrapping paper because these can help the environment.
Do Europeans give money as gifts？Yes.Polish couples，for example，often request cash(现金) at weddings(婚礼) to pay for the cost of the venue(场地) and meals.
Finally，remember：Whatever gifts you give，it's not important.The thought is important，not the size or the price of the gift.
1．When do Europeans usually give fruits and milk as gifts
