| Mark was walking home from school one day when he noticed the boy ahead of him had tripped (绊倒)and dropped all of the books he was carrying, along with two sweaters, a baseball bat, a glove and a small tape recorder. Mark knelt down and helped the boy pick up the scattered (散落的)articles. Since they were going the same way, he helped to carry part of the burden. As they walked Mark discovered the boy's name was Bill, that he loved video games, baseball and history, and that he was having lots of trouble with his other subjects and that he had just broken up with his girlfriend.

I had stored away some of my mother's sleeping pills and I was going home to kill myself. But after we spent some time together talking and laughing, I realized that if I had killed myself, I would have missed that time and so many others that might follow.

| There're five people at our table, including myself. I've already learnt a great deal about them in the short time we've been at sea, although we rarely meet except at meal times. First of all, there's Dr Stone. He's a man of about sixty five, with gray hair and a friendly face. He gave up his work a short while ago and is now traveling round the world before he retires to some quiet country village. As a young man, he served for many years as a doctor in the Army and visited many countries. He's told us a lot about the city to which we are going. Then there's "Grandmother". I call her that because her name escapes me. In spite of being a grandmother, she looks rather young, not more than fifty, She's on her way to visit a daughter who went to Australia some years ago. Naturally she is very excited at the thought of seeing her again, and her three grandchildren, whom she has never seen. Then there's a man I don't care for very much, an engineer by the name of Barlow. He has been on leave in England and is now returning to his work in Singapore. The other person who sits at our table is Mrs. Hunt. I've found out hardly anything about her. She's extremely quiet and rarely talks, except to consult (咨询) the doctor about children's various illness. She's on her way to join her husband in India. |

| I travel a lot, and I find out different "styles" (风格) of directions every time I ask “How can I get to the post office?" Foreign tourists are often confused (困惑) in Japan because most streets there don’t have names; in Japan, people use landmarks (地标) in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, "Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop." In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, "Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile." People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map; they measure distance in time, not miles. "How far away is the post office?" you ask. "Oh," they answer, "it’s about five minutes from here." You say, "Yes, but how many miles away is it?" They don’t know. It’s true that a person doesn’t know the answer to your question sometimes. What happens in such a situation? A new Yorker might say, "Sorry, I have no idea." But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers "I don’t know." People in Yucatan believe that "I don’t know" is impolite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A tourist can get very, very lost in Yucatan! |
| 1. When a tourist asks the Japanese the way to a certain place, they usually ______. |
| A. describe the place carefully B. show him a map of the place C. tell him the names of the streets D. refer to recognizable buildings and places |
| 2. What is the place where people measure distance in time? |
| A. New York. B. Los Angeles. C. Kansas. D. Iowa. |
| 3. People in Yucatan may give a tourist a wrong answer ______. |
| A. in order to save time B. as a test C. so as to be polite D. for fun |
| 4. What can we infer from the text? |
| A. It’s important for travelers to understand cultural differences. B. It’s useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properly. C. People have similar understandings of politeness. D. New Yorkers are generally friendly to visitors. |

| London's Chinese community (社区) dates back to the 18th century, when a small number of Chinese sailors moved to the city to work in Limhouse, east London. As time went on, other Chinese people came to this area and Limhouse began to be known as "Chinatown". However, London's Chinese community remained very small for many years: at the start of the 20th century, there were just 545 Chinese people in Britain. After the Second World War, many farmers in Hong Kong lost their jobs and came to London. As Limhouse had been almost destroyed during the war, they settled in a different area-a part of central London near Leicester Square. This area is now what Londoners call Chinatown. At first, the new immigrants (移民) found it difficult to get jobs. In the 1950s, however, a small Chinese restaurant opened in London. Many British people visited it and said that Chinese food was wonderful! Suddenly, Chinese restaurants and take-aways started opening in every part of the city. Instead of too little work, the new Chinese immigrants now found that they had too much! They worked as cooks, managers or waiters. Most of them enjoyed their lives and arranged their friends and relatives to join them from overseas. As time went by, London's Chinese community became more and more successful. The sons and daughters of the original restaurant workers studied and worked very hard. And most went on to get highly paid jobs. Many Chinese families left Chinatown and moved to the more expensive outskirts. Chinatown, however, is still as lively as ever. |

How many Chinese people were there in Britain at the beginning of the 20th century? __________________________________________________. 3.What happened in London in the 1950s? __________________________________________________. 4.
