2．A report brought back by most visitors to the US is how friendly，polite，and helpful most Americans were to them．To be fair，this observation is also frequently made of Canada and Canadians，and should best be considered North American．There are，of course，exceptions．Small-minded officials，rude waiters，and ill-mannered taxi drivers are hardly unknown in the US．Yet American's friendliness and helpfulness is an observation made so frequently that it deserves comment．
For a long period of time and in many parts of the country，a traveler was a welcome break in an otherwise dull existence．Dullness and loneliness were common problems of the families who generally lived distant from one another．Strangers and travelers were welcome sources of distraction，and brought news of the outside world．
The tough realities of the border also shaped this tradition of hospitality．Someone traveling alone，if hungry，injured，or ill，often had nowhere to turn except to the nearest settler agent．It was not a matter of choice for the traveler or only a charitable impulse （冲动） on the part of the settlers．It reflected the hardship of daily life：if you didn't take in the stranger and take care of him，there was no one else who would．And someday，remember，you might be in the same situation．
Today there are many charitable organizations which specialize in helping the exhausted traveler．Yet，the old tradition of hospitality to strangers is still very strong in the US，especially in the smaller cities and towns away from the busy tourist routes．"I was just traveling through，got talking with this American，and pretty soon he invite d me home for dinner，amazing．"Such observations reported by visitors to the US are not uncommon，but are not always understood properly．The casual friendliness of many Americans should be understood neither as superficial（表面的）nor as artificial（虚伪的），but as the result of a historically developed cultural tradition．
As is true of any developed society，in America a complex set of cultural signals and customs is the basis of all social inter-relationships．And，of course，speaking a language does not necessarily mean that someone understands social and cultural patterns．Visitors who fail to"translate"cultural meanings properly often draw wrong conclusions．For example when an American uses the word"friend"，the cultural meanings of the word may be quite different from those it has in the visitor's language and culture．It takes more than a brief encounter on a bus to tell polite customs from individual interest．Yet，being friendly is a virtue （美德） that many Americans value highly and expect from both neighbors and strangers．

29．In the eyes of visitors from the outside world，D．
A．rude taxi drivers are hardly seen in the US
B．small-minded officials deserve a serious comment
C．Canadians are not so friendly as their neighbors
D．most Americans are ready to offer help
30．We can know from the last paragraph thatA．
A．culture has an influence over social inter-relationship
B．polite customs and individual interest are inter-related
C．various virtues shows themselves only among friends
D．social inter-relationships equal the complex set of cultural customs
31．Families who lived far from one another used to entertain strangersC．
A．to improve their hard life       
B．in view of their long-distance travel
C．to add some taste to their own daily life    
D．out of a charitable impulse
32．The tradition of hospitality to strangersB．
A．tends to be superficial and artificial
B．is generally well kept up in the United States
C．is always understood properly          
D．has something to do with the busy tourist route．
3．People say it is Canada's most beautiful city，surroundedby mountains and the Pacific Ocean．
20．Cheektowaga Central Middle School can be a lot of fun．It has game nights and student dances，after-school activities，and sports teams．However，students must earn the right to join in the fun．If they don't behave well，they're banned from participating in after-school activities．
Teachers and parents say the threat （威胁） of being excluded （排除在外） appears to be working．Kenny says it taught him that actions have consequences："I learned that I need to be balanced in both my work and athletics to be rewarded for working hard．"Parent Sondra LaMacchia told The New York Times that her 14-year-old daughter is learning responsibility at Cheektowaga Central．She used to perform poorly in her studies，so then she was banned from a school dance．The message got through loud and clear．"It's nobody's fault but hers，"LaMacchia said．
Although exclusion（排挤）may help teach responsibility，some psychologists say it can also be threatening，especially for students who often cause，or may cause，trouble in school．They might become more aggressive and antisocial，which is exactly what schools like Cheektowaga Central want to prevent．
Should schools exclude students from activities to get them to behave well？I believe teens need school activities and that inclusion（包含） can be the answer．For some troubled students，activities can be their motivation to stay in school．"Activities such as sports may be the only thing keeping certain students in school，"says Duace Wood，a teacher at Mohonasen High School in Rotterdam．Getting involved in after-school activities keeps troublesome students in class．Even if they don't do as well as their classmates，they are still learning．The more time they spend at school，the less time they have to think about starting trouble．Teams also provide support and role models，and they help build the confidence that students need to succeed．If students who don't behave well are banned from activities，they might give up on school altogether．
