Monkeys are clever and lively, but they are naughty and greedy (贪婪的) as well. Whenver they find delicious food, they will eat enough.  What’s more, they will take it when they leave. They have suffered (吃亏) a lot because of this. But they never change this way.
In India, people use monkey’s greed to catch them. Do you know how they can catch monkeys? Here are some instructions.
◆              Make a hole in a big pumpkin (南瓜). The hole must be just right     ----neither too big nor too small.

◆              Leave the pumpkin under a tree. Make sure there are some monkeys in   the tree.
◆              Hide yourself and watch the monkeys.
As soon you leave, the monkeys can’t wait to come down to the pumpkin. When they find a hole in the pumpkin, they don’t know what’s in it and one of them can't help putting its hand into the hole to find what on earth there is. When it touches the jujubes, it will clench (攥紧) some of them in its hand. As a result, it isn’t able to take its fist (拳) out of the hole. You can’t come close until this time. Will the monkey drop off the pumpkin? Don’t worry. It prefers the pumpkin than its life. It will run with the pumpkin, clenching its fist more tightly. In the end, it is caught helplessly.

Close contacts between Japan and the rest of the world were created in the twentieth century. In the last forty years, business contacts between Japan and the West have become very important. Many foreign companies now have offices in Japan and Japanese businessmen do business around the world. Differences between Japanese and Western ways of doing business, however, often bewilder foreign businessmen and make doing business in Japan difficult for foreigners.
The American businessman, for example, wants to start talking business immediately. He does not want to wait. The Japanese businessman, on the other hand, likes to arrive at decisions after giving them serious thought. Another thing foreign businessmen have difficulty in understanding is when a Japanese means “Yes” or “No”. This is because of cultural differences between Japanese and Western society(社会), Which make it difficult for a Japanese to say “No” directly.
In the USA, it is easy to say “No” to something one does not want to do. But in Japan, it is very difficult to say “No”. To refuse an invitation or a request(请求) with “No” is felt to be impolite. It is thought to be selfish and unfriendly. So instead of saying “No” directly, the Japanese have developed many ways to avoid(避免) saying “No”. These can help them avoid hurting other people’s feelings. However, this often makes their ways of doing business rather difficult for foreigners to understand and follow.
小题1:What often makes foreigners feel difficult to do business in Japan?
A．Their different ways of doing business.
B．Their different lifestyles.
C．The fact that the Japanese never say “No”.
D．The fact that the Japanese are slow to take action.
小题2:Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined expression “bewilder foreign businessmen” in Paragraph One?
A．cause foreign businessmen to change their minds.
B．give a feeling of surprise to foreign businessmen.
C．attract foreign businessmen’s attention.
D．make foreign businessmen think wrongly.
小题3:What fact does the passage lead you to believe?
A．American businessmen do things more slowly than Japanese ones.
B．American businessmen like to say “Yes” and “No”.
C．Americans usually say what they are thinking.
D．Americans do not say what they think or feel clearly.
小题4: From the passage we can infer(推断) that __________.
A．Japanese businessmen are good at business
B．foreign businessmen should try to know Japanese ways of doing business
C．foreign businessmen must be more polite
D．you must learn from Japanese businessmen if you want to succeed
Do you know that animals have love for each other and their children just like us humans? Let me tell you some moving stories of great animal parents.
Several years ago a heavy rain hit a town and made the river go up. When the rain stopped, people found that a dog swam to an island in the river twice a day for two weeks. Why did she do so? Her four children were there. The mother swam there every day to feed her babies. This true story moved many people.
Another story is about chimpanzees(猩猩). A scientist named Jane Goodall spent 4 years living with chimpanzees in Africa. She found that chimpanzees also cared for those that were hurt or got lost. “It is not only humans who have duties, animals also do,” she said.
Two birds in Chengdu also showed their parental(父母的) love. Their baby was hurt and fell on the street in the center of the city. Cars were driving past but the brave parents rushed down to the road and took the little bird away with their claws(爪子).

One thing that British and Chinese cultures share is a love for fine tea. Today, when we think of Western tea culture, we often think of the English and beautiful china tea cups.
Afternoon tea
People believe that an English lady, Anna, first introduced the idea of afternoon tea. In the 18th and 19th centuries, the English ate only two main meals each day: breakfast and a heavy supper that would last for several hours in the evening. As a result, people often got very hungry during the long wait between these two meals. To solve this problem, Anna came up with the clever idea of inviting some friends to join her for an afternoon meal between four and five o’clock. This meal included cakes and sandwiches. And tea was served(供应) to wash down the food. In order to make this afternoon meal important, fine china cups and plates and silver teapots, knives, forks and spoons were used. Soon, afternoon tea parties became popular social occasions. Today, afternoon tea parties continue to play an important part in the social life in modern Britain.
Will you come for coffee?
Coffee also has an important role in British culture. People often use the words “Will you come for coffee” to mean “Would you like to come to my home for a chat?” Normally, several different drinks such as tea, hot chocolate or a soft drink like orange juice will be served as well as coffee, and you will be asked what you would like. However, you will not normally be offered wine at a “coffee” party.
Coffeehouses and the London Stock Exchange
In the 17th century London, coffeehouses were busy and noisy places. Businessmen and bankers went to coffeehouses to do their business, as well as to drink coffee. In fact, the London Stock Exchange(伦敦股票交易所) is believed to have started from these coffeehouses.
小题1:Anna introduced the idea of drinking afternoon tea because she ______.
A．enjoyed chatting with her friends at home

C．wanted to share nice food with her friends
D．found people felt hungry during the long wait between the two meals
小题2:What does “social occasions” mean in Chinese?
A．集体婚礼B．社交活动C．社区表演D．公共场合
小题3: If someone says to you “Will you come for coffee,” you ______.
A．will be offered coffee only
B．are asked what you would like to drink
C．will be asked to have a chat with him or her
D．you are invited to take part in an afternoon tea party
小题4: From the last paragraph we can see______
A．a new business was started in coffeehouses.
B．coffeehouses are still used by businessmen and bankers.
C．businessmen and bankers went to coffeehouses just for coffee.
D．most people wouldn’t like to go to coffeehouses because of the noise.
小题5: Which is the best title of the article?
