On the last day of the year, the 31st of December, people wait till 12 p.m. Everybody must have 12 grapes to eat at midnight. At each sound of the clock, we must eat a grape. But we can’t ever finish eating the grapes on time! Usually when people still have some grapes in their mouths, they look at each other and start to laugh. This tradition started in Spain long ago. One year, when there were a lot of grapes, the king of Spain decided to give grapes to everybody to eat on New Year’s Eve.

On New Year’s Day in Britain, people have parties. At 12 o’clock, the music stops, and we listen to the radio. On the radio we hear Big Ben, the famous clock in London. Then everybody sings a song about friendship and kisses their friends. We say “Happy New Year” to each other. It’s lucky if a tall man with dark hair is the first person to come to the house in the New Year. So I go and visit as many friends as I can. They all give me a drink.

English is becoming more and more popular in China. It can be used in every field, such as on some signs and restaurant menus. But there are some problems when people use it. Perhaps you’ve seen the English letters“WC”in your city. They show public toilets. But do you know it is far from native (地道的)English In fact, foreigners from English-speaking countries seldom use the letters.
Workers in our city are changing “WC” signs all over the city. The government is spending much money changing all the bad English on signs and restaurant menus. Many other places in China are following our steps.
“WC, or water closet, is old-fashioned English. It sounds dirty to me,” says Nancy, a young woman from The US. The old sign will become “Gents/men” and “Ladies/women”.
“I see much poor English in my everyday life, and not only on signs,” she says, “I know what they mean, but they are Chinglish, not real English. For example, when someone says to me ‘My hometown is Guizhou Province’, I know he or she should say ‘My hometown is in Guizhou Province’.” Hometown is a smaller place in a province. The common mistakes that Nancy picked up include “Not Entry”, which should be “No Entry”, “Direction of Airport ” should be changed to “To the airport”. And it is “Room Rate ” not “Room Price”. And remember to “Keep Off the Grass” rather than “Care of the Green”.
The next time you walk on the street or eat in the restaurant , you can go and see if the expressions are right.
( )36．Who seldom uses letters of “WC” according to the passage
A．Teachers in China. B．Chinese students.
C．Foreigners from other countries. D．English-speaking foreigners.
( )37．What’s the attitude(态度) of the governmrnt towards the bad English on signs
A．It doesn’t matter. B．It’s should be changed.
C．It’s native. D．It can be used on signs.
( )38．When Nancy sees much poor English in everyday life, ________.
A．she thinks it should be corrected B．She thinks it is dirty
C．She thinks it is proper D．she likes to use it
( )39．Which of the following signs is Right
A．Not Entry B．Room Price C．To the Airport D．Care of the Green
( )40．What is the main idea of the passage
A．Letters of “WC”. B．Chinglish on menus.
C．Money spent on Chinglish. D．Usages of native English .
（C）
In recent weeks, we have talked about how people learning a foreign language can be fooled by “false(假的) friends.” These are words that look or sound alike in other languages, but have completely different meanings.
Today we will consider a few examples of false friends in English and German. However, English itself is a Germanic language, and there are many English words that were borrowed from German. In the United States, a kindergarten – which word for word means “child garden” in German – is a preparatory school for children. The German word gesundheit means health, and is often said after people sneeze(打喷嚏). It means you are wishing them good health.
A few words have the same meaning in both languages, but many do not. Being tricked by false friends can lead to funny or unsettling situations.
One such example is the English word “gift”. Many people look forward to giving and receiving gifts while celebrating a holiday or birthday. But in German, the word gift has a much darker meaning. It means poison(毒药). So instead of showing up to a party with poison, German speakers would be pleased to know that you brought a geschenk — the word for gift. If you find yourself going to Germany, you might be surprised to see and hear the term gross in many places. An English meaning of gross is something unpleasant. There is also the English expression “gross me out.” It is used to describe something so unpleasant it may even cause someone to feel physically sick. In German, the word gross is an adjective, just like it is in English. But it means something large. So having a gross ice cream in Germany is not something bad. It can actually be very satisfying.
( )41．In the passage, “false friend” refers to ________.
A．the friends who are not kind to you indeed
B．languages which are similar in meanings
C．words look similar but sound different
D．words which have similar look or sound but different meanings
( )42．After someone sneezes, you may say ________ to him or her in both the US and Germany.
A．gross me out B．gesundheit C．geschenk D．kindergarten
( )43．According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT right
A．Many English words are from German.
B．Kindergarten is a preparatory school for children in Germany.
C．Being fooled by false friends always makes funny stories.
D．A German friend may not be pleased with a gift called gift at his or her party,
( )44．Which of the following sentences about gross is RIGHT
A．A gross dress is not liked by English people.
B．Having a gross ice cream in Germany is unpleasant.
C．When traveling in Germany, Englishmen are used to hearing the word gross.
D．Describing something with gross will cause Germans to feel physically sick.

A．learning to make sentence B．learning your mother tongue
C．learning a foreign language D．learning foreign culture

English is becoming more and more popular in China. It can be used in every field, such as on some signs and restaurant menus. But there are some problems when people use it. Perhaps you’ve seen the English letters“WC”in your city. They show public toilets. But do you know it is far from native (地道的)English In fact, foreigners from English-speaking countries seldom use the letters.
Workers in our city are changing “WC” signs all over the city. The government is spending much money changing all the bad English on signs and restaurant menus. Many other places in China are following our steps.
“WC, or water closet, is old-fashioned English. It sounds dirty to me,” says Nancy, a young woman from The US. The old sign will become “Gents/men” and “Ladies/women”.
“I see much poor English in my everyday life, and not only on signs,” she says, “I know what they mean, but they are Chinglish, not real English. For example, when someone says to me ‘My hometown is Guizhou Province’, I know he or she should say ‘My hometown is in Guizhou Province’.” Hometown is a smaller place in a province. The common mistakes that Nancy picked up include “Not Entry”, which should be “No Entry”, “Direction of Airport ” should be changed to “To the airport”. And it is “Room Rate ” not “Room Price”. And remember to “Keep Off the Grass” rather than “Care of the Green”.
The next time you walk on the street or eat in the restaurant , you can go and see if the expressions are right.

（C）
In recent weeks, we have talked about how people learning a foreign language can be fooled by “false(假的) friends.” These are words that look or sound alike in other languages, but have completely different meanings.
Today we will consider a few examples of false friends in English and German. However, English itself is a Germanic language, and there are many English words that were borrowed from German. In the United States, a kindergarten – which word for word means “child garden” in German – is a preparatory school for children. The German word gesundheit means health, and is often said after people sneeze(打喷嚏). It means you are wishing them good health.
A few words have the same meaning in both languages, but many do not. Being tricked by false friends can lead to funny or unsettling situations.
One such example is the English word “gift”. Many people look forward to giving and receiving gifts while celebrating a holiday or birthday. But in German, the word gift has a much darker meaning. It means poison(毒药). So instead of showing up to a party with poison, German speakers would be pleased to know that you brought a geschenk — the word for gift. If you find yourself going to Germany, you might be surprised to see and hear the term gross in many places. An English meaning of gross is something unpleasant. There is also the English expression “gross me out.” It is used to describe something so unpleasant it may even cause someone to feel physically sick. In German, the word gross is an adjective, just like it is in English. But it means something large. So having a gross ice cream in Germany is not something bad. It can actually be very satisfying.
( )41．In the passage, “false friend” refers to ________.
A．the friends who are not kind to you indeed
B．languages which are similar in meanings
C．words look similar but sound different
D．words which have similar look or sound but different meanings
( )42．After someone sneezes, you may say ________ to him or her in both the US and Germany.
A．gross me out B．gesundheit C．geschenk D．kindergarten
( )43．According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT right
A．Many English words are from German.
B．Kindergarten is a preparatory school for children in Germany.
C．Being fooled by false friends always makes funny stories.
D．A German friend may not be pleased with a gift called gift at his or her party,
( )44．Which of the following sentences about gross is RIGHT
A．A gross dress is not liked by English people.
B．Having a gross ice cream in Germany is unpleasant.
C．When traveling in Germany, Englishmen are used to hearing the word gross.
D．Describing something with gross will cause Germans to feel physically sick.

42．推理判断题。根据第二段“The German word gesundheit means health, and is often said after people sneeze. It means you are wishing them good health”德语词“gesundheit ”的含义是健康，人们打喷嚏之后经常被人说，意思是祝他们身体健康。故选B。
43．推理判断题。根据第三段“Being tricked by false friends can lead to funny or unsettling situations”被“错误的朋友”戏弄可能导致有趣或不安的情况。C选项“被‘错误的朋友’戏弄总是会导致有趣的故事”表述错误。故选C。
44．推理判断题。根据“An English meaning of gross is something unpleasant”可知“gross”的英语含义是让人不舒服的东西，A选项“一件令人恶心的裙子是不被英国人喜欢的”表述准确。故选A。
