A
Here are some restaurant rules for you to travel to some of the most popular countries in the world.
France
In France, it’s important to be on time for your restaurant reservation(预订) . Greet the waiter politely. You should order your own meal, as it’s considered kind of impolite to share one dish. Although it is uncommon to take your uneaten food home, the government recently required that larger restaurants allow it if asked.
Italy
At an Italian restaurant, a waiter will lead you to a seat. It’s fine to share food, but don’t make any special requests when ordering a dish. Italians usually drink water, beer, or wine with their meals, and never coffee or soda. Try to finish your food on the plate and do not ask to take uneaten food home.
Thailand
It’s certain that you’ll be told where to sit at a Thai restaurant. Get your waiter’s attention by waving your hand. Like Italian restaurants, sharing food is proper in Thailand. And people can share a dish together. Often, the host will pay. But you can offer to pay even if you are a lady.
South Korea
If you wait for a South Korean waiter to seat you, you’ll be waiting for a long time! As long as there are empty seats, you can seat yourself. To call the waiter over, touch the button(按钮) on the table. Sharing food in South Korea is also welcome. Just remember that bowls are kept on the table during the meal. Use your spoon to eat rice.
21．What can customers do if they have a meal at a restaurant in France
A．Share food with others.
B．Order your meal alone.
C．Bring the food made at home.
D．Arrive at the restaurant later than your booking time.
22．Customers can’t ask to take uneaten food back home in ________.
A．Italy
B．Thailand
C．South Korea
D．France
23．Which of the following is true
A．Ladies should pay for the meal in Thailand.
B．Customers can’t seat themselves in French restaurants.
C．A little food should be left on the plate in Italian restaurants.
D．Waiters will not lead customers to the seats in South Korean restaurants.
B
Ping-pong, or table tennis, might seem like an ordinary game to play with friends or family. But it holds a special place in China-US relations, as it has helped both countries get along for the last 50 years. This has been called “ping-pong diplomacy (乒乓外交)”.
Judy Hoarfrost was just 15 years old when she was sent from the US to China as part of a nine-member table tennis team. The year was 1971, and for the past 20 years, relations between China and the US had been unfriendly.
But as the team toured around China, things started warming up. Hoarfrost even got to meet then-Premier Zhou Enlai. “The most unforgettable moment was Zhou shaking hands with me and looking into my eyes,” Hoarfrost told China Daily. “You have opened a new page in China-US relationships.” Zhou told the team.
In the years that followed the historic visit, ties between the two countries started to blossom. US president Richard Nixon would make a landmark (里程碑) visit to China in 1972, which also saw Chinese table tennis players make their own visit to the US, according to China Daily. Diplomatic relations between the US and China were fully established (建立) in 1979.
Players from both countries believed strongly in the idea of “friendship first, competition second”. To this day, many of them remain friends. Hoarfrost thinks we should remember ping-pong diplomacy in order “to understand the importance of people to people exchanges in establishing bonds, human bonds between peoples.”
Seeing tension (紧张局面) between two of the world’s biggest powers in recent years, Hoarfrost said China and the US should work together. “We have so much in common, and we need to build on what we have in common,” she added.
24．What do we know about Hoarfrost
A．She doesn’t know what “ping-pong diplomacy” is.
B．She formed her own table tennis team 20 years ago.
C．She was part of efforts to improve China-US relations.
D．She has played table tennis for 15 years.
25．What is Paragraph 3 about
A．The team’s tour around China.
B．The relationship between China and the US.
C．Hoarfrost’s meeting with Zhou Enlai.
D．Zhou Enlai’s memories of the team.
26．What does “establishing bonds” in Paragraph 5 mean
A．forming a relationship
B．holding a competition
C．understanding different countries
D．understanding the spirit of sportsmanship
27．According to the passage, what might Hoarfrost agree with
A．It’s normal for countries to face tension.
B．Playing table tennis can help people go abroad more easily.
C．China and the US should have another table tennis exchange.
D．China and the US should improve their relations.

Dear Matt,
There is too much homework to do in middle school. Sometimes I can’t finish all the homework as scheduled because some of the homework is too difficult for me to work out. It makes me so upset that I am losing interest in studying. What can I do
Jay
Dear Jay,
Middle school can be difficult: there’s no doubt about it.
First, I’d recommend doing the hardest homework first. Leave the easy part for later. Another way to organize the order of your homework is from your least favourite to your favourite subject. That way, you can use your energy for the most difficult work in the beginning, and as you become more tired or impatient, you’ll be able to finish the rest more quickly and more easily. Saving the best for last is good tool of motivation(动力) and serves as a nice reward in the end.
Second, do your homework as soon as you can. This is a great way to organize your most disliked tasks in life. If you get your homework done as soon as you get home(or even during a free period in school), you’ll open up the rest of the day for things you actually want to do. The longer you avoid your homework, the less likely you are to get it done.
Third, don’t be afraid to ask for help. You’re not in this alone. Can you ask your parents, teachers or friends for help Would a teacher extend the due date if you ask for more time Can you join—or organize—a study group Whatever you decide, you’ll always find others willing to support you and help you be the best student you can be.
Good luck.
Matt

The history of Chinese characters dates back to ancient times, with the history of at least several thousand years.
There are many tales and legends about the origin of hanzi, Chinese characters; there is Cangjie, the legendary inventor of Chinese character, the ancient practice of knot-tying; the eight trigrams (八卦); and ancient painting legends to name a few. It is generally agreed that hanzi began as simple pictures, images that the ancient cultures developed picture based writing systems as well, such as the hieroglyphs (象形文字) of ancient Egypt or the script of the ancient Mayan civilization. Hanzi, however, is the only of these ancient writing systems to survive.
Today, Chinese characters are the oldest continuously used system of writing in the world. Researchers generally agree that the oldest symbols recognizable as Chinese characters are those found on ancient oracle bones. These 3000-year-old symbols, known as,- jiaguwen, were carved on turtle shells or bones of animals. The jiaguwen can give all of us in the modern era insight into how ancient Chinese saw the world around them and into their great creativity in expressing their observations. Take, for example, the modern character jia, meaning home or family. The jiaguwen character looks like a house with a nice pig inside, originating from the ancient idea that a family home has plenty of food. Over thousands of years, this hanzi evolved into a variety of different forms but finally developed in a more stable manner after the unification of China under Emperor Qinshihuang.
When you first look at Chinese characters, you will most likely feel that they are very complicated. However, if you know just a little about how these characters are formed, you will find that they are not nearly as difficult as they seem. About 80% of Chinese characters are composed of smaller parts, known as radicals (部首), which are combined in many different ways to form tens of thousands of hanzi. Fortunately, you need to know only about two or three thousand characters for use in daily life!
As China takes its place in the international community, the Chinese writing system has spread to other countries. Today, many international students are studying Chinese, both the spoken and written language, and are coming to appreciate China’s fascinating culture. And, as China’s culture and society have continued to develop, the amazingly versatile Chinese character (hanzi) have been adapted for use in digital format on computers and other devices. And so written Chinese lives on, spreading Chinese culture wherever it goes.
28．Jay is ________ because he has too much homework.
A．angry
B．pleased
C．stressed
D．excited
29．Which statement is true according to the letter written by Matt
A．You can do the thing you really want to do before you finish your homework.
B．You’d better leave your favourite homework to do last.
C．You should finish all your homework by yourself and not ask for help.
D．You’d better finish the easiest part of your homework first to motivate your interest.
30．What does the underlined word “it” refer to
A．The thing you want to do.
B．Your study group.
C．Your homework.
D．Your favourite subject.
31．The underlined word “extend” probably means ________.
A．make…smarter
B．make…longer
C．make…brighter
D．make…larger
32．Why did the writer mention Emperor Qingshihuang in the passage
A．Because he unified China and created hanzi.
B．Because he helped developed hanzi in a more steady form.
C．Because hanzi evolved into a variety of different forms.
D．Because he was the inventor of Chinese characters.
33．What can we learn from the underlined sentence (划线句子) in Paragraph 4
A．Radicals can be combined into thousands of hanzi only.
B．Chinese characters can be combined.
C．Chinese characters are composed of radicals.
D．Radicals are smaller parts which can be combined to form hanzi.
34．What may the writer probably talk about Chinese characters in the next paragraph
A．Another Chinese traditional culture.

Four Ways to Be a Great Roommate
Having a roommate can be one of the best experiences in Senior High or, easily, one of the worst. 36． Follow these things to avoid the common mistakes that turn good roommate relationships bad.
Talk things out.
Communication is the key. If something happens, sit down with your roommate and have a face to face conversation. I’ve seen when something happens, roommate relationships fall apart instead of talking to each other. The two start complainging about their roommates behind their backs. 37．
Don’t expect to be best friends.
Some roommates become the best of friends, and some don’t. Don’t put pressure on yourself or your roommate, especially when you first meet. 38． And if your roommate doesn’t end up being your best friend, don’t worry.
Ask before you take.
This applies to food, clothes and anything else. If you want to keep a relationship going, show your roommate that you have respect for what is his or hers by asking first. 39．
Clean up after yourself.
This should go without saying. Don’t be lazy. Or, at least, don’t bury your roommate in your clothes and garbage. Most people I’ve come across in college are messy. 40． But being considerate with where you put your things will help you avoid conflict（冲突）.
A．Remember, you’re trying to make a new friend, not to scare your roommate away.
B．This creates nothing but awkward situations and unhappiness.
C．Even if you both agree to share everything, you should still ask.
D．You don’t have all the time to clean your room and keep it organized.
E．It all starts with you to have a good relationship with your roommate.

Third, don’t be afraid to ask for help. You’re not in this alone. Can you ask your parents, teachers or friends for help Would a teacher extend the due date if you ask for more time Can you join—or organize—a study group Whatever you decide, you’ll always find others willing to support you and help you be the best student you can be.
Good luck.

The history of Chinese characters dates back to ancient times, with the history of at least several thousand years.
There are many tales and legends about the origin of hanzi, Chinese characters; there is Cangjie, the legendary inventor of Chinese character, the ancient practice of knot-tying; the eight trigrams (八卦); and ancient painting legends to name a few. It is generally agreed that hanzi began as simple pictures, images that the ancient cultures developed picture based writing systems as well, such as the hieroglyphs (象形文字) of ancient Egypt or the script of the ancient Mayan civilization. Hanzi, however, is the only of these ancient writing systems to survive.
Today, Chinese characters are the oldest continuously used system of writing in the world. Researchers generally agree that the oldest symbols recognizable as Chinese characters are those found on ancient oracle bones. These 3000-year-old symbols, known as,- jiaguwen, were carved on turtle shells or bones of animals. The jiaguwen can give all of us in the modern era insight into how ancient Chinese saw the world around them and into their great creativity in expressing their observations. Take, for example, the modern character jia, meaning home or family. The jiaguwen character looks like a house with a nice pig inside, originating from the ancient idea that a family home has plenty of food. Over thousands of years, this hanzi evolved into a variety of different forms but finally developed in a more stable manner after the unification of China under Emperor Qinshihuang.
When you first look at Chinese characters, you will most likely feel that they are very complicated. However, if you know just a little about how these characters are formed, you will find that they are not nearly as difficult as they seem. About 80% of Chinese characters are composed of smaller parts, known as radicals (部首), which are combined in many different ways to form tens of thousands of hanzi. Fortunately, you need to know only about two or three thousand characters for use in daily life!
As China takes its place in the international community, the Chinese writing system has spread to other countries. Today, many international students are studying Chinese, both the spoken and written language, and are coming to appreciate China’s fascinating culture. And, as China’s culture and society have continued to develop, the amazingly versatile Chinese character (hanzi) have been adapted for use in digital format on computers and other devices. And so written Chinese lives on, spreading Chinese culture wherever it goes.

Four Ways to Be a Great Roommate
Having a roommate can be one of the best experiences in Senior High or, easily, one of the worst. 36． Follow these things to avoid the common mistakes that turn good roommate relationships bad.
Talk things out.
Communication is the key. If something happens, sit down with your roommate and have a face to face conversation. I’ve seen when something happens, roommate relationships fall apart instead of talking to each other. The two start complainging about their roommates behind their backs. 37．
Don’t expect to be best friends.
Some roommates become the best of friends, and some don’t. Don’t put pressure on yourself or your roommate, especially when you first meet. 38． And if your roommate doesn’t end up being your best friend, don’t worry.
Ask before you take.
This applies to food, clothes and anything else. If you want to keep a relationship going, show your roommate that you have respect for what is his or hers by asking first. 39．
Clean up after yourself.
This should go without saying. Don’t be lazy. Or, at least, don’t bury your roommate in your clothes and garbage. Most people I’ve come across in college are messy. 40． But being considerate with where you put your things will help you avoid conflict（冲突）.
A．Remember, you’re trying to make a new friend, not to scare your roommate away.
B．This creates nothing but awkward situations and unhappiness.
C．Even if you both agree to share everything, you should still ask.
D．You don’t have all the time to clean your room and keep it organized.
E．It all starts with you to have a good relationship with your roommate.
