Before I came to the United States years ago, I had thought that culture separated people, but I have realized now that cultures are closer than we know. In the United States, there are certainly more differences than similarities when comparing it to my country.
An amazing aspect of culture is the food produced. I've always been a foodie（美食家）. When I was hungry, there were many foreign signs of restaurants, but deciding which one was a difficult task. I remember reading the sign for“Chipotle” and I had no idea what was served there.
Who would ever have imagined that an experience as simple as trying new food would produce thoughts of cultures I find it truly beautiful that each culture brings different spices and tastes to the table. I have tried wonderful foods from all sorts of cultures. Each is very unique and atmospheres are also quite interesting and culturally affected. Although the food may taste different, preparation can be somewhat consistent（一致的）. Many of the foods I have tasted have had similar mechanisms of cooking（烹饪机制）.
Here in the United States, it can be somewhat difficult to express all of my culture, mainly because there are many different cultures here. But I have found common ground on these matters and have learned to adapt to different cultures.
I have learned how to live in two cultures. I'm not saying it's easy, I'm not saying that it's extremely hard, but it's all about balance. Each person has their own culture. Life has too many things to care. The theory of “When in Rome, do as the Romans do” is very applicable in most situations. Throughout my experiences here, I have certainly learned a lot about others. Culture is something different to many people but in the end, it connects all of us. Cultures bring others together to create new and exciting situations.
24. What does the author learn about culture after coming to the United States
A. Culture separates people. B. Culture is from local food.

A. Each culture has unique atmosphere.
B. Preparation methods of food are similar across cultures.
C. All foods from different cultures taste the same.
D. Each culture brings different tastes to the table.
27. How does the author feel about living in two cultures

A new trend called“praise groups” or “in-need-of-praise” chat groups has become popular on Chinese social media. In Chinese culture, where modesty（谦逊） is valued, openly seeking and giving praise is uncommon. These chat groups provide a platform for people to receive compliments（赞扬） and encouragement, which are often lacking in their daily lives.
To join a praise group, users can pay a fee on e-commerce sites, starting at 50 yuan for five minutes of compliments. The group members will then show the person with praises and kind words. The compliments can be designed for a friend or loved one as well. Participants have found that being praised by strangers can help li ft their spirits and improve their self-confidence.
For example, Meng Zha, a student at Shanghai's Tongji University, tried the service and found it amusing and uplifting. She received compliments on her appearance and even quotes（引用）from popular songs. Ms Meng couldn't help but laugh at the compliments and expressed her desire to post such high-quality praises in the future.
Praise groups have appeared as a way for people in China to seek and receive compliments and encouragement that may be lacking in their daily lives. It provides a positive and uplifting experience for participants, improving a sense of happiness and self-worth.
Those who support the groups, see them as an antidote to extremely bad moods（情绪） which are often associated with things happening on the Internet. “At first, the purpose of this group is to make us learn to praise others and accept others' praises confidently. Here we can drop everything, and use our heart to praise and support others, “one member said. But the life journey is long and there are some unexpected situations that we can only count on ourselves to face when there is no one out there to offer help.
28. What is the purpose of praise groups
A. To make praise popular. B. To have everyone supported.
C. To share common interests. D. To give people hope and happiness.
29. What can we learn about Meng Zha in paragraph 3
A. She was not strong enough. B. She was under working stress.
C. She was satisfied with the service. D. She was a gifted singer in her area.
30. What does the underlined word “antidote” mean in the last paragraph
A. A way of making new friends. B. A kind of medicine.
C. A method of being confident. D. The wisdom of solving problems.
31. What is the author's attitude to praise groups
A. Objective B. Critical. C. Supportive. D. Indifferent.
D

参考范文：
Paragraph 1:
At first, Asad wanted to keep it a secret and punish Fahad. However, it was not easy. He felt his cheeks blushing and a sense of guilt rising inside of him. Glancing first at Fahad, who was still chatting happily, and then at the wallet in his hand, Asad finally made up his mind. He got up and went straight to Fahad and his group. Upon seeing Asad approach him, Fahad said, “Hey loser! You okay Still want the money ” “No,” replied Asad, “I just came to return your wallet which you have dropped over there.” Fahad stood shocked for a second. All his friends were silent too.
Paragraph 2:
Then Fahad said, “Why are you giving it back ” “Because I was told by my family that ‘honesty won’t let you down,’” explained Asad. Fahad avoided Asad’s shining eyes. What followed was an awkwardly long silence, which was eventually broken by Asad’s stomach growling loudly. Surprisingly, the arrogant boy reached out his hand and asked, “What about having lunch together ” Before Asad could say anything, Fahad quickly added, “Of course, my treat.” It was on that very day that Asad made his first friend in the new school, and he truly recognized the value of sincerity and honesty in a relationship.

Before I came to the United States years ago, I had thought that culture separated people, but I have realized now that cultures are closer than we know. In the United States, there are certainly more differences than similarities when comparing it to my country.
An amazing aspect of culture is the food produced. I've always been a foodie（美食家）. When I was hungry, there were many foreign signs of restaurants, but deciding which one was a difficult task. I remember reading the sign for“Chipotle” and I had no idea what was served there.
Who would ever have imagined that an experience as simple as trying new food would produce thoughts of cultures I find it truly beautiful that each culture brings different spices and tastes to the table. I have tried wonderful foods from all sorts of cultures. Each is very unique and atmospheres are also quite interesting and culturally affected. Although the food may taste different, preparation can be somewhat consistent（一致的）. Many of the foods I have tasted have had similar mechanisms of cooking（烹饪机制）.
Here in the United States, it can be somewhat difficult to express all of my culture, mainly because there are many different cultures here. But I have found common ground on these matters and have learned to adapt to different cultures.
I have learned how to live in two cultures. I'm not saying it's easy, I'm not saying that it's extremely hard, but it's all about balance. Each person has their own culture. Life has too many things to care. The theory of “When in Rome, do as the Romans do” is very applicable in most situations. Throughout my experiences here, I have certainly learned a lot about others. Culture is something different to many people but in the end, it connects all of us. Cultures bring others together to create new and exciting situations.
24. What does the author learn about culture after coming to the United States

A new trend called“praise groups” or “in-need-of-praise” chat groups has become popular on Chinese social media. In Chinese culture, where modesty（谦逊） is valued, openly seeking and giving praise is uncommon. These chat groups provide a platform for people to receive compliments（赞扬） and encouragement, which are often lacking in their daily lives.
To join a praise group, users can pay a fee on e-commerce sites, starting at 50 yuan for five minutes of compliments. The group members will then show the person with praises and kind words. The compliments can be designed for a friend or loved one as well. Participants have found that being praised by strangers can help li ft their spirits and improve their self-confidence.
For example, Meng Zha, a student at Shanghai's Tongji University, tried the service and found it amusing and uplifting. She received compliments on her appearance and even quotes（引用）from popular songs. Ms Meng couldn't help but laugh at the compliments and expressed her desire to post such high-quality praises in the future.
Praise groups have appeared as a way for people in China to seek and receive compliments and encouragement that may be lacking in their daily lives. It provides a positive and uplifting experience for participants, improving a sense of happiness and self-worth.
Those who support the groups, see them as an antidote to extremely bad moods（情绪） which are often associated with things happening on the Internet. “At first, the purpose of this group is to make us learn to praise others and accept others' praises confidently. Here we can drop everything, and use our heart to praise and support others, “one member said. But the life journey is long and there are some unexpected situations that we can only count on ourselves to face when there is no one out there to offer help.

C. A method of being confident. D. The wisdom of solving problems.
31. What is the author's attitude to praise groups

Regular exercise is an important part of keeping me healthy. In addition, I think friends are an important part of one's health. 39 I always feel better when I am with friends than when I am alone. When I am with my friends, I always laugh. Laughing is also an important part of health. It is good to stay with my friends.
By eating properly and exercising regularly, I can keep my body at a proper weight and keep healthy. By spending time with my friends, I can keep my mind as well as my body happy. These things sound easy to do, but not many people can manage them. 40
A. What's more, taking exercise is very important.
B. But if our health were taken away, we could surely die.
C. I think a strong determination is necessary if we want to keep fit.
D. Some people appear fat because they often eat too much.
E. Many studies show that people with few friends often get sick.
F. I eat a lot of vegetables and fresh fruits which are full of vitamins.
G. There are some people who like staying alone, but they keep healthy

参考范文：
Paragraph 1:
At first, Asad wanted to keep it a secret and punish Fahad. However, it was not easy. He felt his cheeks blushing and a sense of guilt rising inside of him. Glancing first at Fahad, who was still chatting happily, and then at the wallet in his hand, Asad finally made up his mind. He got up and went straight to Fahad and his group. Upon seeing Asad approach him, Fahad said, “Hey loser! You okay Still want the money ” “No,” replied Asad, “I just came to return your wallet which you have dropped over there.” Fahad stood shocked for a second. All his friends were silent too.
Paragraph 2:
Then Fahad said, “Why are you giving it back ” “Because I was told by my family that ‘honesty won’t let you down,’” explained Asad. Fahad avoided Asad’s shining eyes. What followed was an awkwardly long silence, which was eventually broken by Asad’s stomach growling loudly. Surprisingly, the arrogant boy reached out his hand and asked, “What about having lunch together ” Before Asad could say anything, Fahad quickly added, “Of course, my treat.” It was on that very day that Asad made his first friend in the new school, and he truly recognized the value of sincerity and honesty in a relationship.
