         Which animal do you think is "the king of the animals", the elephant, the lion or the tiger? They are all

         Some people like to get up early, but some do not. In fact, it is really good for us to get up early every
      day. Maybe those who don't like getting up early will not believe this, but it is true. Scientists made a
     survey in about one thousand people, and then they found that early rising (早起) people had less
     disease (疾病) than late rising people, and early rising people also look healthier than late rising people,
     and so on.
         So we may know early rising is helpful in more than one way. First, it helps to keep us healthy. We all
     need fresh (新鲜的) air. But air is never so fresh as early in the morning. Besides, it is useful to do
     morning exercises.
         Secondly, early rising helps us in our studies. In the morning we learn more quickly and find it easier to understand what we learn.
       Thirdly, early rising can give us a plan of our work for the day. We cannot work well without a good
     plan.
         Fourthly; early rising gives us enough time to get ready for our work, such as to wash our hands and
     faces and eat our breakfast.
         Late risers may find it difficult to form the habit (养成习惯) of early rising. They have to make an effort
     (努力) to do so. As the English proverb says, "Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy,
     wealthy (富裕的) and wise. "

    1 . Early rising people are _____  than late rising people.
        A. fatter          
        B. thinner        
        C. healthier      
        D. Cleverer
    2. Air is the freshest _____  according to the passage.
        A. in the morning                  
        B. in the afternoon
        C. in the evening                    
        D. all the day
    3. Which of the following is the result of early rising?
        A. People can get ready for their work.
        B. People can get fresh air.
        C. People can learn things more quickly and better.
        D. All of the above.
    4. If a man always likes to get up late, it's _____ for him to form the habit of getting up early.
        A. easy          
        B. difficult      
        C. happy        
        D. sad
    5. As the English proverb says, _____   can make us healthy, wealthy and wise.
        A. getting up early                
        B. going to bed early
        C. getting up late                  
        D. both A and B

         Around the world, people have different ideas about what good manners are.
         When you go to restaurants in different parts of the world, it's important to know the right and wrong
     things to do. (2)For example, in China it's OK to make a lot of noise in a restaurant. In fact, if a restaurant
      isn't noisy and lively, you may think there's something wrong with it. However, in many Western
     countries, restaurants are quiet places. If a table is too loud, other people who are eating there will be unhappy.
         Paying the bill is also  (1) _____ _____  country to country. In China one person usually pays for every
     one. In Western countries, if friends eat together, they usually share the cost. This is called " go Dutch".
     Also, when Westerners pay the bill, they usually leave some money for the waiter. This is called "leaving a
      tip (小费)". Leaving a tip is thought to be polite.
         The way people eat food is different in the world, but you can find the same kinds of food in many
     countries. Chinese and Italian food, for example , are popular all over the world.
