Part IV重点句子
I know Christmas is coming.
is coming 是现在进行时表将要发生的动作,现在进行时表将来的句子的谓语动词大多数是位移动词,这样的动词有arrive,come,drive,fly,go,leave,travel等。
【例句】New Year is coming and everyone is busy.
2. My parents love to have lunch and shop there, although parking is a problem.
这句话中的although意为“尽管,即使,虽然”,引导让步状语从句,相当于though。两者都可以与yet/ still 连用,但不能与but 连用。
【例句】Although /Though he is old, he is quite strong. 尽管他上了年纪,但是他相当强壮。
3. Do you believe it’s Santa Claus who brings you gifts, Brian
这句话中it’s Santa Claus who brings you gifts是believe的宾语,这个宾语从句是以it构成的强调句。这种强调句式中,it无具体意义,基本结构是“It is/was+被强调的成分(主语、宾语、状语)+that/who+其他成分”。
【例句】It is my mother who cooks me meals every day. 是我妈妈每天给我做早饭。(强调主语my mother)
【辨析】bring,take,fetch,carry
(1)bring作“带来,拿来”。表示从别的地方将某人或某物带到或拿到说话者所在的地点来(由远而近)。
【例句】Next time don’t forget to bring me a copy of your work.
下次不要忘了把一份你的作品带给我。
(2)take是bring的反义词,意为“带走,拿走”。指从说话者所在地把某人或某物带走或拿走(由近而远)。
【例句】Take the box away, please. 请把盒子拿走。
(3)carry表示“运载,携带”之意,运送的方式很多,可以用车、船,也可以用手甚至用头。
【例句】This bus is licensed to carry 100 passengers.这辆巴士准载一百人。
(4)fetch则表示“取来”的意思。
【例句】Please fetch me the documents in that room.请到那间房间去把文件拿来给我。
4. But we do have lots of fun.
句中的助动词do起强调作用,后加动词原形;如果主语是第三人称单数,则用“does+动词原形”形式。
【拓展】如果强调过去时的动作则用“did+动词原形”形式。
【例句】Your mother did look nice yesterday.

Part II 阅读理解
My name is Wu Zhou. I have lived in Canada for twenty-three years. In Canada, I call myself Joe Wu. Joe is an English name that sounds like Zhou.
Though I have lived here for a long time, I still don't feel Canadian. This is probably because North American manners and Chinese manners arc so different.
In China, being modest is a virtue. If someone praises you and says that your English is excellent, you should be modest and say, "No, no. My English is still poor.” But in North America, this is usually a sign of being weak and not confident. You should just say, "Thank you.”
In Canada, people only ask children about their age. It’s not polite to ask an adult's age. They think it is private. But this is common in many places in China.
In both China and North America, it is polite to offer an elderly person a seat on the bus. In North America, however, an elderly person may feel embarrassed about being offered a scat.
When Chinese people cat out in restaurants, they may take turns paying for the meal. In Canada, however, people often share the cost of a meal.
(1) In China, if your guests have no food on their plates, it's polite to put food on their plates. In Canada, you pass food to guests, but you don't usually put food on their plates.
In China, people seldom give extra money to waiters, waitresses, taxi drivers or hotel workers. In North America, this is always done. It is called “tipping”.
It's interesting to experience two different cultures. (2) I think understanding cultural differences really helps us to understand each other, live together and work together.

Canada is home to many cultures. Three percent of all Canadians are First Nations people. The people of the First Nations were there before other people came to North America. Now more than half of Canadians have British or French blood. The rest are from every part of the world: Asia, Africa, Central America, South America, Australia and other European countries.
Canada became a country in 1867, and for more than a hundred years, most immigrants in the country were from Europe. In the 1970s and 1980s, that changed. According to a survey, the number of European immigrants dropped from 90 percent to 25 percent, and the number of Asian immigrants rose from 3 percent to 48 percent.
Although Canada has two official languages — English and French, most Canadians do not speak both. Many immigrants speak two languages — the language of their first country and English or French. Canada welcomes cultural differences in the people who live there.
So what is a Canadian That's a little hard to describe. Canada does not have one culture — it has many. It is important that people from different cultures can live together in one country.
Is there a Canadian food Not really. Is there a Canadian religion No. Is there a Canadian kind of music No again. Is there a Canadian way of understanding the world Yes. It's that people should respect and accept one another and help one another. It's important to keep different languages, religions and customs alive.

Different countries have different ideas about manners-how you behave when you are eating. In England, table manners are important. Good table manners in England are as follows:
★How to sit: You should sit up straight in your chair. It is not a good idea to lean(倾斜)forwards or backwards. When you eat, you should not lean towards the plate, but bring the knife, fork or spoon towards you. At the same time, do not out your elbows on the table, nor reach over someone’s plate for something.
★Using your fingers: English people normally don’t pick food up with their fingers when they are eating main courses. If you are not sure, the safest is to use your knife or fork. There are, however, some foods that are usually eaten with fingers. They include sandwiches, burgers, crisps and fruit.
★Your mouth: It is not polite to talk with your mouth full of food, or to eat with your mouth open. And if possible, do not make any noises. Never lick(舔)your plate after eating.
★How much to eat: It is polite to eat the food that you have been offered, so a clear plate is a good plate. It shows that you enjoyed the food. If you can’t finish everything and need to leave a little, that’s also okay. You could say something like “That was very nice, thank you, but I’m just too full to eat another bite.”
11. How should you sit when you are eating in England
A. You should lean backwards.
B. You should lean forwards.
C. You should sit up straight in your chair.
12. What food do Englishmen eat with their fingers
A. Beef. B. Pizza. C. Juice.

A. Reach over someone’s plate for something.
B. Lick your plate after eating.
C. Eat an orange with fingers.
14. What can we infer(推断)according to the passage
A. Eating with the mouth closed is a good manner.
B. We mustn’t leave anything on the plate any time.
C. Saying sorry means we are full.
15. What does the passage mainly talk about

How are you these days Are you ready for Christmas
My Australian pen pal, Bruce, and his father came to visit me the day before yesterday. Last night, my parents invited them to our home for dinner. At the end of the meal, Mr. Bradshaw opened a box of cookies he had brought from home. He then passed the box to everyone. We each took a cookie and ate it. The cookie tasted like chalk to me! But in good Chinese tradition, I told Mr. Bradshaw that I enjoyed it.
At the airport today, Mr. Bradshaw gave me a big box of the same cookies as a gift. I don’t know what we’ll do with them.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

I couldn’t help but laugh when I read your e-mail. I can imagine your reaction when you received the cookies. Maybe you can send them to me. I love all kinds of cookies. But I think you were polite to react that way. I love Chinese culture.
I wish everyone here, especially Debbie, could learn some Chinese manners.
Debbie dreams of being a police officer. She once said that she hoped to have a toy gun as a Christmas gift, so I bought one for her. But when I gave it to her, she said she wanted a doll! She changes her mind so quickly!

It can’t be true that when in Rome, do as the Romans do. So it’s necessary for you to know what you can talk about with the local people in other countries.
In France
You’ll find that conversations often turn into heated discussions. You’d better give opinions only on subjects that you are knowledgeable about. There is seldom a moment of silence, except when the topic under discussion has been finished, and nothing new has been introduced.
Food, art, music and current events or history are welcome topics. The French believe in freedom, and you can criticize(批评)anyone, but not Napoleon, who stands for the French spirit. Moreover, never use the conversation opener “What do you do ”
In Australia
Generally speaking, the Australians are excited about discussions. Many topics may be open to discussion, including religion and politics. The best way, however, is to wait for Australians to bring up these two subjects; be prepared to listen to what they are talking about. The Australians like to criticize themselves, but they can’t stand being criticized by others. Don’t talk big. The Australians prefer to judge (判断) your abilities through your actions. People who show off their education in conversation may be laughed at.
