二、任务型阅读　　　素养：文化意识　　　　话题：社会行为　　难度：中　　　　　建议用时：7分钟　
　　[原创]Nowadays, people usually shake hands when they meet each other. Do the Chinese always greet others like this? In fact, to prevent the spread of COVID-19, we Chinese use different ways to greet others now.
There were several kinds of greetings in ancient China. Among them the fist-and-palm salute (拱手礼) was a quite common one, with a history of about 3,000 years. It was first used by people in the Western Zhou Dynasty. In ancient times, if people met a stranger, their hands were always ready to hold something used for fighting. Holding out both hands showed that people could feel relaxed.
When people meet, men usually use their left hand to hold the right one. It's believed that people considered the left as the important side for men in Chinese history. While for women, the important side is the right. So when they give the fist-and-palm salute, they should put their right hand on the top. When someone presents the fist-and-palm salute to you, you are supposed to do it back as well.
In many wuxia or kung fu TV series and movies, people greet each other with the hold-fist salute, or baoquan in Chinese. The gesture (手势) is that the right hand is made a fist, while the left hand is to cover the right fist. It's similar to the fist-and-palm salute, but they are different. Baoquan is widely used among kung fu masters and students. So, don't make a mistake.

一、阅读理解　　　素养：文化意识　　　　话题：餐桌礼仪　　难度：中　　　　　建议用时：7分钟　
　　[2020湖南湘潭中考]You may have already forgotten the days when you had to learn how to use chopsticks. Every Chinese kid manages to use them for some time. But chopsticks are not just simple tools to pick up food. They come with their own special rules and traditions.Generally, people should not make a noise with chopsticks. Playing with chopsticks is seen as bad manners, just as playing with forks and knives in a Western country would be rude.
There are also some superstitions (迷信) related to chopsticks. For example, some people believe that chopsticks should not be left standing upright in a bowl. It looks like the incense (香) that Chinese use to honor the dead. Doing it at the dinner table is believed to bring bad luck.
You should not tap (敲) chopsticks on the edge of the bowl either, as beggars (乞丐) do this to ask for food. Parents might get angry if children do this as they don't want their children to be as poor as beggars in the future.
Besides, chopsticks can also be a great gift. In Chinese, "chopsticks" are known as "kuaizi", so newly-weds (新婚夫妇) feel happy to receive chopsticks as a wedding gift. Skilled craftsmen (手艺人) paint beautiful pictures on chopsticks to make them look like fine artworks. Today, even people from Western countries are learning to use chopsticks and like to collect them as souvenirs (纪念品).
1.The text is about 　　　　.
A. history of chopsticks B. stories behind chopsticks C. rules and traditions of using chopsticks
2.What is Chinese people's opinion of playing with chopsticks?

3.What does the underlined word "honor" mean in Chinese?

答案
　【解题导语】　本文主要介绍中国人使用筷子时的礼仪,并且筷子现在已经成为一种人们喜欢的礼物。
1.C　主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文主要介绍了使用筷子的礼仪。
2.B　细节理解题。由第一段中的"Playing with chopsticks is seen as bad manners"可知,在吃饭时玩弄筷子是不礼貌的。
3.C　词义猜测题。根据画线词后的"the dead"及选项可推知,画线词应表示"表达敬意"。
4.B　细节理解题。由第三段中的"Parents might get angry if children do this as they don't want their children to be as poor as beggars in the future"可知,父母不喜欢孩子用筷子敲碗,因为他们不想让孩子长大后像乞丐一样穷。
5.A　推理判断题。由最后一段中的"‘chopsticks’ are known as ‘kuaizi’, so newly-weds (新婚夫妇) feel happy to receive chopsticks as a wedding gift"可知,送给新婚夫妇筷子是希望他们早生贵子的意思。

　　[2020广州白云区一模] Can I have a glass of hot water? This is a very common question in a restaurant. For many Chinese people, nothing is more common than drinking hot water every day. However, the simple habit is like a mystery to people from other countries.
For many westerners, the idea of drinking hot water is very strange. However, most Chinese people think the Americans' habit of drinking ice water is also strange and even unhealthy. Some old people carry a tea kettle (茶壶) when they travel. Chinese doctors are encouraging more people to drink hot water, especially for women.
But in Western countries, drinking hot water isn't common. Westerners often have drinks with ice, not just on hot days but almost every day.
There is a story online about a British man, who has been in Beijing for over five years. He visited a local café when going back to England. He asked for a glass of hot water in a British accent (口音). But this request surprised the waitress, "To...to...to drink?" she doubted. Finally, the man received the hot water but felt cold stares from every corner of the café.
Westerners wonder why Chinese people drink hot water as Chinese are wondering why westerners drink cold water. This cultural difference is not a simple problem, but related to (与……相关) history, culture and science.
As a matter of fact, many teenagers now depend on bottled water for daily drinking. With the younger generation growing up, will drinking hot water become a less popular life habit? Who knows?
1.What do most Chinese think of drinking ice water from the passage?
A. Normal and healthy.
B. Strange but healthy.
C. Normal but unhealthy.
D. Strange and unhealthy.
2.Who is especially advised to drink hot water by Chinese doctors?
A. Westerners. B. Students.
C. Women. D. The elderly.
3.What's the meaning of the underlined part in the fourth paragraph?
A. Other people in the café were angry at the man's request.

　　[2020四川德阳中考] Going to a friend's house is very exciting. You may spend time with a friend and get to see where he or she lives. So remember to be polite.
The first thing to remember is that when a friend invites you over, you need to arrive on time. If your friend tells you to come "around 3:00", that means you can arrive a little bit after 3:00. But usually it is a good idea to arrive at the right time.
Often it is also nice to bring something to your friend's house. This could be a box of chocolates for you to share, or maybe a CD that you can enjoy together. You can also bring some flowers. A little gift is a nice way to show your friend that you are excited to be at his or her house.
When you visit your friend's house, you may also meet his or her parents. You should tell them who you are and they may tell you their names. As a child, I went to visit my friend Paul. I called his parents by their first names John and Mary. But now I know it is more polite to call them Mr. and Mrs. Smith. This will show them more respect (尊重) and then they may tell you to call them by their first names. Another way to show respect is to call them madam or sir.
It is a cool thing to visit a friend's house. Be polite to your friend and your friend's parents, and you will be invited again.
1.When should you arrive if you are invited to a friend's house?
A. Almost on time.
B. An hour earlier.

D. As early as possible.

三、阅读理解　　　素养：文化意识　　　　话题：礼仪　　　　难度：难　　　　　建议时长：8分钟　
　　[2019贵阳中考改编] Many people love travelling to different countries,but if you plan to go abroad,you should know how to behave in different situations around the world.
　　Most travellers enjoy meeting new people,but sometimes you can be rude without saying anything.In Russia, you should
never shake hands in a doorway,and if you're travelling in Thailand, never touch people's heads or point your feet at people.When the Japanese meet new people,they like giving business cards — but you should read the card carefully,not just put it in your pocket.
In most countries in Europe people expect a lot of eye contact when you talk to them,but in many Asian countries a lot of eye contact seems unfriendly.And in South America people usually stand quite close to each other when they talk, but in countries like the USA you need to give people more personal space.Also,it's rude to interrupt Japanese people while they are talking to you.You must wait until they finish before you start speaking.
　　

In restaurants in China you can leave a bit of food on your plate, and if you eat with your close friends usually it's OK to start smoking after eating,which you mustn't do in the UK.When in India,remember to eat with your right hand.Also avoid leaving empty bottles on the dinner table in Russia —that's bad luck.
　　When you're travelling in Asia,if someone invites you to his or her home,don't forget to take off your shoes when you arrive.
　　With so much to think about,it's not surprising that many people prefer going on holiday in their own countries — or you might just decide to stay at home!
1.Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. We can leave empty bottles on the dinner table in a Russian family's home.
B. In China,people cannot smoke after eating.
C. In Russia,it's impolite to shake hands with people in a doorway.
D. People usually stand quite close to each other in the USA.
2.What does the underlined word "interrupt" mean in Chinese?　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
A. 跟随 B. 打断 C. 附和 D. 询问

1.C　细节理解题。根据第二段中的"In Russia, you should never shake hands in a doorway"可知,选项C是正确的描述。
2.B　词义猜测题。结合上下文可知,在日本,别人和你说话的时候,"打断"他们是不礼貌的。
3.D　段落大意题。通读第二段到第五段的内容可知,第二段讲的是人们见面时应注意的肢体语言;第三段介绍的是面对面交流时应注意的问题;第四段讲的是出去吃饭时的一些礼仪;第五段讲的是在家里时的一些礼仪,故对应的顺序是D项。
4.A　标题判断题。本文是关于不同国家的礼仪和文化的介绍,故最佳标题是A项。

Pay attention! Talking on a cell phone while driving is dangerous. And watch out where you're going when you're walking down the street and talking on the phone.

Dear Mike,
It's fantastic that you will come to China and spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with a Chinese family.
August 15 of the lunar calendar is the traditional Mid-Autumn Festival. It is in the middle of the fall of the year, so it is called the Mid-Autumn Festival.
On that day, all our family get together and have a big dinner. We also eat mooncakes, admire the full moon and guess the riddles written on the lanterns.
As a guest, you must pay enough attention and give proper praise to the host and the hostess when they're introducing the dishes. Don't use your chopsticks to pick a dish in the plate everywhere. You'd better keep quiet when eating and drinking soup.
Enjoy your stay in China.
Li Ming
