One day I saw someone was having a public speech in a square. I thought it would be a 12 speech. But I soon found it became a kind of entertainment show.

He said that since Swift doesn't want to be with the boy any more, she doesn't need to speak it aloud, she doesn't need to sing 14 she still keeps in touch with that guy. It sounds like she is a hypocrite(伪君子).
Then he sang the song in a 15 way. The listeners laughed out loudly. I felt a little 16 because Swift is my favourite star. I couldn't understand why they 17 Swift.

Ⅲ.阅读理解（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分）
What are the basic ingredients (要素) of good manners A strong sense of fairness is one of them.
A friend once told me an experience that he had. When he was driving along a one-lane(单行小路), unpaved(未铺路的)mountain road, the car ahead of his produced clouds of choking dust (呛人的尘土), and it was a long way to the nearest paved main road. Suddenly, the car ahead stopped at a wider place on the road. My friend thought there must be something wrong with the car ahead.He stopped and asked if anything was wrong. “No," said the other driver,“ But you've endured my dust so far, I'll endure yours the rest of the way.
Another ingredient is empathy(同情心). It makes a person see into the mind or heart of someone else. Recently I happened to read such a story in a book.
A man was having dinner alone,and he was trying to open a bottle. But he failed. Then he asked a waiter for help. The waiter took the bottle, turned his back and opened it without difficulty. Then the waiter closed it again and turned back. He pretended (假装) to make a great effort to open the bottle without success. Finally he took it into the kitchen and returned very soon. He told the man that he managed to open it,but only with a tool.
Yet another ingredient is the ability to treat people alike (一视同仁). No matter who he is and what he does, everyone is worth respecting.
21.The driver in the car ahead stopped to________________.
A.repair the car B.have a rest C.ask the way D.let the back car go
22.The underlined word“endure'"probably means____________in Chinese.
A.原谅 B.容忍 C.抱怨 D.谴责

A.by himself easily B.with a tool C.with difficulty D.without success
24.The second story may happen________________.
A.in the kitchen at home B.on the main road
C.in the restaurant D.on the busy street
25.The best title of the passage is“_________________________.
A.The Ability to Solve Problems

D.The Empathy for Strangers
IV .任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分）
Different countries have different customs in giving presents. In China you must never give a clock to a Chinese person, because the sound of the word for“clock"in Chinese is similar to the sound of“death”in Chinese. Also, don't wrap(包裹)a present in white, black or blue paper, because they are the colours for funerals(葬礼). Don't give a knife,because something sharp can cut a friendship.
In Russia if you give flowers as presents, you have to give an odd number of them (one,three,five,etc.) because even numbers of flowers are for funerals. In Germany if you are invited to dinner, flowers are good presents to take to your dinner hostess(女主人), but don't take her red roses because it means you are in love with her. Don't take thirteen of anything because it's an unlucky number. Don't take an even number of anything, either. Don't wrap your presents in white, brown, or black paper.
